Odette:
I'm terribly sorry.

Fairy Queen:
Please, don't apologize. We've been waiting for you for a long time.

Odette:
(surprised) Me?

Fairy Queen:
First, let me thank you for helping Lila. And you, you know better the adventure (?) of the human world. A creature from the enchanted forest can be...

Lila:
(continues) I know, killed by a human. (dramatically) Ugh, it's all over! I'm done for!

(Fairy Queen rolls eyes)

Lila:
Goodbye world!

(comically coughs and falls down)

Fairy Queen:
What am I going to do with you?

Lila:
I just wanted to help! I thought there might be something in the village to fight old bird brain!

Fairy Queen (to Odette): What's your name, my dear?

Odette:
Odette.

Fairy Queen:
Well, Odette, do you know what you have in your hand?

Odette:
I... I was just going to return it!

Fairy Queen:
The magic crystal belongs to you now!

Lila:
To her? How is she gonna save us? (rolls eyes)

Odette:
You must have mixed me with somebody else.

Fairy Queen:
Years ago, my cousin Rothbart lived in the Enchanted Forest with us.

(cut to the crystal, then to the shadowy sequence showing teenage Fairy Queen and Rothbart)

Fairy Queen:
When the time came for our uncle, the king, to choose a successor, he picked me instead of my cousin.

(the sequence shows the king pointing to the Fairy Queen, then Rothbart going away and herbs dying under his feet)

Fairy Queen:
Rothbart was furious. He stormed out of the forest. For many years, all was well.

(the sequence shows a fawn trying to drink from the lake but is scared away by darkness approaching to him and runs away)

Fairy Queen:
Then Rothbart returned with his daughter Odile, now a master of the dark arts.

(the sequence shows shadowy Rothbart and Odile. Rothbart zaps magic from his ring, closing the cut)

Fairy Queen:
He began taking over the forest piece by piece. I tried to force him to leave, but his dark powers were overwhelming.

(the sequence shows fairies and elves running towards Rothbart and him transforming them into animals, then birds flying to the palace)

Fairy Queen:
Several of my bravest fairies and elves trying to stop him, but he transformed them into animals and forced them to build his new palace.

(cut to the Enchanted Forest)

Fairy Queen:
With every prisioner he takes, Rothbart's powers grow stronger.

Lila:
But now that you're here...

Odette:
I don't understand!

Fairy Queen:
It's been foretold that the one who frees the magic crystal will overcome Rothbart and save the forest. But nobody has ever been able to pull the crystal from the tree, Odette.

Until today.

Porcupine:
It's you! You! Our hero! Give me hug!

Skunk, stopping him: Quills, Ivan! Quills!

Ivan:
Oh, he-he, right, right.

Lila:
Well, she doesn't look like much to me, but... maybe?

Odette:
Wait! Please! You have the wrong girl! I can't be the one. I haven't overcome anybody in my life! I wish I could help, but I...

Lila:
Hm! I knew it.

Fairy Queen:
Lila, please. We can't force her. The dangers are enormous.

Odette:
I'm really sorry, I've gotta get back. (hands the queen the crystal) My family will be looking for me.

Fairy Queen:
I understand, Odette. Lila will show you the way out.

Odette (looking back): Goodbye. I'm sorry.

Skunk:
It's over, over! Done! Finished! Oh! I'm getting a migraine.

Lila, to Fairy Queen: You really think she has something special, don't you? Alright, I'll see what I can do.

(two ravens watch over them, then exchange glances and fly off)

(Odette and Lila are going away; Lila jumps on a rock)

Lila:
You know, if I had the magic crystal, I'd nail Rothbart! Uh. En garde, bird brain! Appel! Coupé! Coulé!

(Lila attacks the tree with her corn, is stuck in a branch. Odette giggles at her)

Lila:
Oopsé.

(Lila falls on the ground)

Lila:
Huh. Just keeping my horn sharp.

Odette:
It's just I... I'm not brave, like you!

Lila:
Well, that's true. Nobody's braver than I, but... erhm... I suppose I could help you.

(two big birds are approaching them, Odette and Lila stand back. Rothbart lands, changes into his human form. Odile follows him)

Rothbart, laughing: Look, Odile! Now this is pathetic!

Odile, shrieking: Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha! Pathetic!

Rothbart:
A little bird whispered in my ear that some human girl freed the magic crystal. (to Odette) It couldn't be you?

Lila:
Feathers a bit ruffled, Rothbart?

Rothbart, comically: Oooh, my days are numbered! Shaking in my boots!

(Odile shrieks)

Lila:
Go ahead, laugh all you want. But Odette and I are gonna throw you two right outta the forest!

Odette:
Lila! Shh.

Lila:
Oooh yeah, Odette's gonna have you two for breakfast, 'cause you two are toast!

Rothbart:
And here I thought unicorns were... (his eyes turn red) shy!

(Lila crouches, smiling awkwardly)

Rothbart:
Odile, my little pigeon! How would you like a new feather pillow?

Odile, shrieking: Anytime!

(Rothbart lights his ring and zaps his magic at Odette. Odette turns into a swan)

Odette:
Ah!

Lila:
Odette!

Rothbart:
Ha-ha-ha! Look at the great hero of the forest! (plucks a feather out of Odette's wing, she gasps)

Lila, ready to attack: Hey, lay off!

(Lila attacks Rothbart and then runs away)

Lila:
Go! Go, Odette!

(Odette flies away. Fairy Queen's voice: Over here, Odette. Odette lands on the water and approaches the coast, where she is met by the Fairy Queen)

Fairy Queen:
We came as quickly as we could. This crown will protect you.

(She puts a crown on Odette's head. Rothbart and Odile appear)

Rothbart:
Ah, queen of nothing!

Fairy Queen:
He can do nothing more to you, as long as you wear the crystal.

Rothbart:
You still think you can interfere with my destiny? Ha! This is my forest. Mine! Just as it always should've been. Why don't you save us all from a lot of trouble and hand over the crown?

Fairy Queen (flying closer to Rothbart): And see you destroy the rest of our home?! Never.

Rothbart:
Then enjoy the show, hah.

(his pupils reduce)

Rothbart:
This girl's days are over!

(he lights his magical ring and zaps magic to Odette, but she is protected by a pink crystal-like shield. His magic is reflected and it turns into violet fireworks. Odette is shown unharmed)

Lila:
Yeah! Woo-hoo!

Skunk:
Yeah! All right!

(other animals laugh and cheer)

Fairy Queen:
Go, Rothbart. You can do nothing here.

Rothbart:
So you think (turns himself and Odile into their bird forms). Come, Odile.

Odile:
What's going on? What about my pillow? Daddy, wait!

(they fly away. Odette swims to the coast, Lila neighs)

Lila:
"So you think. Come, Odile". Ho-ho-ho-ho! Oh, did you see his face? You got him, Odette! Ow!

Odette:
I think he got me (looks at her wing)

Lila:
Well, yeah, he did score a few points.

Odette:
What am I gonna do? Can you turn me back?

Fairy Queen (sighs): I wish I could. Over time, a few lucky elves have escaped from Rothbart's palace.

(she points to the animals)

Ivan:
It was very close, but, many thank-yous to the beautiful Carlita, we made it!
