Alice meets Foghorn Leghorn and Daffy Duck

In the glade of the forest, Alice made her way into the center of the woods, calling out his name twice.

"Mister Mouse! Oh, Mister Mouse!"

However, Timothy was gone again. There was still no luck for the blonde-haired girl to catch the circus mouse.

"Oh, dear. I'm sure he came this way," she said, looking around with her fists on her hips. "Do you suppose he could be hiding somewhere?"

Little did she know that there was a rooster and a duck peeking from behind the bushes.

The rooster has white feathers, a yellow beak, with a red snoot, yellow feet, a red crest on top of his head, and red tail feathers. His name was Foghorn Leghorn.

The duck has black feathers, an orange beak, and webbed feet. He also wears a white collar around his neck. His name was Daffy Duck.

"Where could he possibly be hiding?" Alice wondered, as she looked behind a tree. The rooster and duck moved between the bushes and the tree, yet they were hidden within a shadow. As Alice turned toward an open log, the rooster and duck moved next to the tree and they stood right behind her.

"Not here…," Alice said, before kneeling down to the log’s level. "I wonder..."

As she crawled into the log, the rooster and duck looked at each other and skipped on top of the log in unison, before stopping in front of the other side of the log. Once Alice came out from the log, she stood still for a moment and brushed her apron with her hands.

"I suppose he—" she started to say, before she jolted and gasped in shock when she turned and glanced at the rooster and duck.

"Why… what peculiar birds."

Just then, she spotted two blue ribbons with their names embroidered in yellow and read them one at a time: "Foghorn Leghorn...And Daffy Duck!"

Alice placed a finger on the rooster's beak, and a low honking sound came out of his mouth, surprising her.

"If you think we're made of wax, you ought to pay to see us, you know." Foghorn said, and he jabbed his friend with his left elbow. As a result, a high honking noise emitted from Daffy's mouth.

"If you think we've come to life, you ought to say something to us." Daffy added, before jabbing his friend with his right elbow. The same low honk came out of Foghorn's mouth, and Foghorn bounced into Daffy, the same high honk emitting from him. The rooster and duck then hopped on the log and made the same honking noises by jabbing one another with their average-sized feet, overweight/svelte hips, torsos, and backs before landing on the grassy terrain.

"That's logic!" the rooster and duck said in unison, holding their left index fingers up.

"Well," Alice said with a short chuckle, as she gave them a short curtsey. "It's been nice meeting you boys. Goodbye."

Just as she started walking away, however, the rooster and duck darted and stood right in her way.

"You’re beginning backwards." Foghorn said to her.

"Aye, the first thing to say actually is,” Daffy added, before the duck and parrot broke out in song again and took Alice's hands. They spun her around in a circle, like a game of ring-around-the-Rosie, before they shook her hands rapidly and released her, causing her to fall on the ground.

Foghorn and Daffy: *How do you do*
*And shake hands*
*Shake hands*
*Shake hands*
*How do you do*
*And shake hands*
*State your name and business*

"That's manners!" the rooster and duck said to her, holding up their opposite index fingers in front of her.

The two front bangs of Alice's hair were covering her face, so Alice flipped them out of the way to give herself a better view.

"Really?" Alice asked them, and she then stood up on her feet. "Well, my name is Alice, and I’m following a brown circus mouse, so—"

As she turned to leave, the rooster and duck suddenly appeared in front of her again, stopping her in her tracks.

"You can't leave yet." Foghorn said to her, waving his hands in front of her.

"No, the visit has just started." Daffy added.

"I'm very sorry, but—" Alice said as she continued walking, with the rooster and duck still in her way.

"Would you like to play hide and seek?" Daffy asked, as multiple clones of the rooster and duck popped up from the trees and a single bush. The clones disappeared, and the rooster and duck then fused themselves into one body, yet their legs and arms were still with each of the rooster and duck.

"Button! Button! Who's got the button?" Foghorn said.

"No thank you." Alice replied to them politely, only to see the rooster and duck in front of her again in fighting stances.

"If you stay a little longer, we’ll have a battle." Daffy said, and the rooster and duck began bopping one another in a honking, comical fight.

"That’s very kind of you, but I must get going." Alice said, as she gently pushed them out of the way. The rooster and duck then jolted in front of her and stood next to two trees that served as an archway in the woods.

"Why?" they asked her in unison.

"Because I’m following a brown circus mouse." Alice answered them, only to be blocked by them again.

"Why?" the rooster and duck asked her once more.

"Well, I'm curious to know where he's going." Alice replied to them, before finally starting to leave again.

"Ohhh, she's curious." Daffy whispered, as he and Foghorn had inquisitive expressions on their faces.

"The oysters were curious, too, weren’t they?” Daffy whispered to him, causing Alice to stop and turn around to listen to what the rooster and duck were saying.

"Aye. And you remember what happened to them."

The rooster and duck huddled with one another and started crying before Alice came walking straight back to them as they placed their hands over their hearts to pay respect.

"Poor things!" they said in sad voices.

"Well, what did happen to the oysters?" Alice asked them. Foghorn and Daffy began marching towards the log.

"Oh, you wouldn’t be interested in hearing about it." Foghorn said to her.

"Oh, but I am." Alice replied to them, as she followed them and got in front of them.

"Ohhh, no. You’re in much too much of a hurry." said Daffy.

Alice was still in front of them as she was walking in reverse towards the log, and said, "Well, perhaps I could spare a little time."

"You could?" the rooster and duck said, smiles of delight forming on their faces. "Well!"

With that said, Foghorn and Daffy placed Alice on the log before making back-flips and landed in front of the bushes and trees.
