MARIPOSA:
Let me help.

Ooh! My bad.

Oh, sorry!

(GULPS)

(SMACKING LIPS)

Ah. (GROANS)

Here, allow me.

(CHUCKLES NERVOUSLY)

Thank you.

Oh!

(GASPS) Did I get you?

Here, let me see.

Please.

I prefer you didn't!

(SIGHING)

Perhaps, Madam Ambassador,

it would be best if you simply sat down.

And moved a bit farther

back from the table.

Of course, Your Majesty.

(CHAIR SCRAPING)

Perhaps, just

a little farther.

(CHAIR SCRAPING)

A bit more...

(CHAIR SCRAPING)

More.

(CHAIR SCRAPING)

Teeny bit farther.

(CHAIR SCRAPING)

Perfect.

I'm sorry. What?

I said, thank you!

(GROANING)

(GASPS) Oh, no!

(WATER SPLASHING)

(GRUNTS)

This Royal Tea is over!

Come, Catania!

(SIGHS)

(BOTH CHITTERING)

Well, that went better than expected.

Don't you think?

(SIGHS)

(THUNDER RUMBLING)

(GROANING)

Now is the time, Boris.

Eight years of

planning my revenge.

Eight years to hone my magic

and become even more powerful.

Eight years of talk

and no action.

When are we gonna get

to the revenging?

Silence!

I need to concentrate.

Yes.

(GASPS) Yes!

Look at it! It's beautiful!

Beautiful?

Personally, I prefer things

to be shinier, you know?

Sparkly,

like a piece of jewelry,

or a lake!

That's really shiny, with sun sparkling...

(MUFFLED)

Beautiful because

it's completely destroyed!

(GROANING)

GWYLLION:
Soon all of

Shimmervale's Crystallites

will have had

their final glow.

(BOTH LAUGHING EVILLY)

(SNORING)

(YELPING)

(WHIMPERING)

(SCREAMS)

(WHIMPERING)

(CHITTERING)

Can't sleep, Zee?

(CHITTERING IN FRUSTRATION)

I know. I couldn't

sleep either.

(GRUNTING)

There's just so much more to learn

about Shimmervale.

I can't have anymore

tea disasters.

(GRUMBLING)

Hmm.

It says here that outsiders are forbidden

to touch a Crystallite,

especially the Heartstone,

which is the most powerful Crystallite

in Shimmervale.

That's why the king

was so upset at tea.

(GRUMBLING)

(LAUGHING) Sorry, Zee,

but I'm not tired

and this light just makes

me feel like I'm at home.

(GASPS)

(LAUGHING)

Hey!

Why, you...

Oh!

(BOTH LAUGHING)

(SNORING)

(KNOCKING ON DOOR)

Good morning.

Mariposa?

(SCREAMS)

(SCREAMS)

Whoa!

Ready for your introduction to the

people of Shimmervale?

Huh?

Huh?

We don't want to keep the king and

princess waiting,

not to mention an entire kingdom

of Crystal Fairies!

I'll never live that down.

One minute!

(SNORING)

(GRUMBLING)

(CHUCKLING) Come on.

(NEIGHING)

(LAUGHING)

(GRUMBLES)

Mariposa, before our conversation was

interrupted yesterday,

you were about to enlighten me as to

your weapons training

and hand-to-hand

combat skills.

Combat skills?

Yes, the ones you used to fight the

Skeezites, of course.

Oh. Well, it never really

came down to "battle. "

Rayla, Rayna

and I met Zinzie,

and then we all flew

to the Bewilderness,

where we found clues

leading us to the mermaids

who told us to fly east to the

Cave of Reflection...

If you don't want to

tell me, just say so!

I'm sorry, I'm not

trying to be evasive.

(GRUNTS)

Shimmervale City,

Your Highness.

(NEIGHING)

Please welcome Mariposa,

Royal Ambassador from Flutterfield!

Well, it looks like

everyone is busy today.

(DOOR OPENING)

We're not busy!

Well, it appears

my subjects are

preoccupied.

(DOOR CLOSING)

MAN:
No, we're not!

(SIGHS)

Oh!

(GASPS) Your crown!

(GRUNTING)

(BOTH SCREAMING)

She's attacking

the King!

(FAIRIES CLAMORING)

(BOTH GROANING)

(GRUNTS)

I'm sorry!

Your crown,

Your Majesty.

(SIGHS)

Perhaps you beat the Skeezites by

tripping over them.

There will be more

people here tomorrow.

I'm sure of it.

(DOOR SHUTTING)

MAN:
No, there won't!

(DOOR SHUTTING)

(SIGHS)

We're flying. We're flying.

We're flying.

And mother thought two years in

art school was a waste of time.

And we're stopping.

(CHUCKLES)

(CLEARS THROAT)

A long time ago,

I forget how long,

our fairy forefathers built Flutterfield

on top of a putrid swamp.

Ah, but Miss?

It says that Flutterfield was built

on a magnificent and exquisite garden.

Yeah. Moving on.

Okay, over here you'll see our

resident mural

guy painting some

kind of picture?

ALL:
Ooh!

(CARLOS CHUCKLING)

Willa, you're not supposed to bring

the visitors back here.

Please stand back,

this is a very fragile...

(GASPING)

...tapestry.

Okay, people.

We're flying, we're flying.

MAN 1:
You're not very

good at this, are you?

MAN 2:
When's Mariposa

coming back?

WOMAN:
Can I get a refund?

(SNORING)

(YAWNING)

Huh?

(CHUCKLING)

(BLOWING A RASPBERRY)

(HUMMING)

Good morning, Zee!

(SCREAMING)

Ow, ow, ow.

(CHUCKLING)

Today will be better, Zee.

(SIGHING) Oh!

I just know it!

Good morning!

Here's your dress.

(SCREAMS)

My dress?

The king has asked me to invite

you to the Annual Crystal Ball.

Crystal Ball?

What's that?

Just the biggest

social event of the year.

Everyone comes to

the palace to celebrate!

That's perfect.

I'll win over the

citizens of Shimmervale

and the king will see that

we can all get along.

Do you know where

I can find the king?

I want to thank him

for the invitation.

(IMITATING AIRPLANE ENGINE)

(IMITATING GUN FIRING)

Now where is my

third flying battalion?

(CHITTERING)

Ah, yes. Thank you.

When you're responsible

for the kingdom, Catania,

it will be important that

you position your guards

at all the strategic locations from

which an enemy could attack.

Oh, yes.

Mmm-hmm.

Your Majesty!

Oh, Mariposa.

Your Highness, thank you for the invitation.

I'm very honored.

I wanted to know

if you want me to, well,

address your

subjects at the ball.

I bring greetings

from Queen Marabella,

and I could simply say

that everyone in Flutterfield

sends their good wishes.

(IMITATING GUNFIRE)

(CHITTERING)

(GROWLING)

Let's see how it goes

at the ball, Mariposa,

and perhaps you can

address the people.

Thank you, Your Majesty.

(YELPS)

(WHIMPERING)

(LAUGHING EVILLY)

(GROWLING)

(ZEE SCREAMS)

Zee! No!

Oh, no!

(RUMBLING)

Now, look at what

you've done!

I'm so sorry. Here,

let me help you pick those up.

(GRUNTING)

Honestly, I'm not even sure why I agreed

to this arrangement.

Father, it was an accident.

And those wings!

They're a menace!

Can't you do

anything about them?

Do anything?

Um, I guess I...

Better.

Keep them that way.

(SIGHS)

I'm sorry.

It's just he...

Hmm.

I'll talk to him.

Father!

Keep them this way?

(GROANING) Ow.

That could be difficult.

(SIGHS)

(THUNDER RUMBLING)

(GWYLLION LAUGHING EVILLY)

You wanted to see me,

Your Majesty?

Oh, yes.

(CLEARS THROAT)

I want you to stay close to Mariposa

at the ball, Talayla.

It's our most important celebration and

I don't want anything to go wrong.

Yes, Sire.

(GWYLLION LAUGHING)

You see, Boris?

Patience is a virtue.

Everyone in Shimmervale,

all in one place.

Sharpen your talons,

my friend. We go tonight.

Oh, I'm a-sharpenin'.

I'm a-sharpenin'.

(BOTH LAUGHING)

(CREAKING)

(SCREAMING)

(BABBLING)

Sorry.

(SIGHS)

(SIGHING)
