Maya the Bee: The Honey Games Page #6

---

Please don't punish our hive

because of me.

[bug] Give her a chance!

[crowd shouting in agreement]

How touching.

Such honesty should be rewarded.

Little bee, I'm going to give

you a second chance

to compete in the final.

[all cheering]

But if you lose,

we will still take

all your summer honey.

[everyone gasps]

This summer, next summer,

and every summer after that.

- [Queen] Never!

- [Empress gasps]

I should've stood up to you

a long time ago.

[everyone gasps]

We accept your challenge.

And we will win!

You can do it, Maya.

[Willi] No.

We can do it.

That's what friends do, right?

[Bedford] Maya?

You're the first bug

that's ever believed in us.

Oh, group hug!

[all chuckling]

Right, group hug!

Is she serious?

Competitors,

to the starting line.

- What are you, petal?

- I'm a winner, Daddy.

Right. And what do winners do?

They win, whatever it takes.

Exactly.

When you get to Mount Stumpy,

take the secret tunnel

on the right.

What? What if we get caught?

I'm the Games Master,

sweet leaf,

you won't get caught.

Racers, take your marks!

[crowd cheering]

Get set!

- Let's buzz these bugs!

- Ow!

Don't grab their feelers.

Steer by leaning your body.

Come on!

Let's go!

I'm flying!

- Hey, kid, let go!

- [all groaning]

[gasps] Let go of their feelers!

Go! Move move move!

[Violet]

Let's go!

Team Poppy

are taking an early lead!

Yes!

[Mantis] But Team Tropolis are

not giving up without a fight.

[Maya woops]

[gasps]

Whoa!

[Violet] Too slow!

[laughs]

Should've stayed in bed, bugs!

[Bedford screams]

Spinder, save him!

[Maya] You can do it!

[frog croaks]

[gasps]

Spinder, you saved me.

I did it. I did it!

[woops] Go, Spinder!

Thank you, Spinder.

[Mantis] And as they come up

to the Mudsucker Muddle,

it's Team Tropolis,

a bee's knee in front.

[bubbling]

[all groaning]

[Maya panting]

[gasps]

Ugh! So dirty.

I can't, Maya. I can't. [groans]

Let's help him.

- [Barney] Come on, buddy.

- [Craig whimpers]

[Maya] That's it!

[groaning]

- Craig!

- [Arnie] That's not good.

[Craig spluttering]

I'm dirty and muddy and...

I love it! [woops]

[laughs] I love it! [woops]

I am in control.

[clap of thunder]

I'm in control!

I'm in control! [screams]

I'm not in control!

Frozen aphid pops!

It's raining sky ice!

Everyone, under there!

Maya?

Maya! [grunts]

[all panting]

Where's Willi?

Wait!

[screaming]

[snickers]

This way.

[nervous laugh]

It's a bit dark.

Get in there, wobble grubs!

[whimpering]

[thunder rumbling]

Huh?

Violet!

What are you doing?

We're winning, Willi.

- And you're gonna help us.

- Huh?

Tell Maya

you've got a sore wing.

That'll slow her down.

What?

You'd do it for me,

wouldn't you?

[Willi stammers]

[chuckles] Thought so.

[chuckles]

Willi!

What's wrong?

I'm hurt.

I'm hurt that Violet wanted me

to lie to my best friend.

They've taken a short cut!

- [all gasp]

- Oh, the cheeky cheaters.

We don't have a chance!

We don't have a chance!

We don't need a chance.

We've got each other.

Let's win this, fair and square.

Oh, yeah.

- Come on.

- Everybody, follow her!

Let's go, guys.

Violet do we have

to go this way?

- It's so creepy!

- Just be quiet and follow me!

[creaking]

[sinister cackling]

[all scream]

[clap of thunder]

Spread out,

the orchid's up here somewhere!

- [Arnie] Let's go.

- [Craig] We've got no chance!

[Barney]

We're never gonna find it.

- [Arnie] You're so negative.

- Arnie! We found it!

- Wow!

- Are you looking at this?

Yeah, and it's beautiful.

Barney, we found it!

I'll get Maya.

You wait here,

and don't touch anything!

Maya! Up here! We found the...!

- [muffled shouting]

- [wind whistling]

What's he saying?

I can't hear him.

I speak sign language.

He says he's found the flower.

This way, everybody,

single file, or no file at all.

This way to see the flower.

[all] Whoa!

I thought there'd be,

like, more.

[Barney belches loudly]

- What?

- Oh Barney, you didn't!

[belches]

We did it!

- [clap of thunder]

- [Willi] Whoa!

Uh, we should get going!

[Violet]

Help!

Huh?

Hey, hey, that's Violet.

It sounds like she's in trouble!

[Violet]

Help!

- But we're so close to winning!

- And what if she's tricking us?

What if she's not?

Help!

[sinister cackle]

Got ourselves

in a sticky situation, have we?

[screams]

Someone do something!

[cackles]

Hey! Let them go!

[cackles]

Be gone, raggedy bugs.

- My dinner's getting cold.

- [screams]

We have to do something!

[grunts]

Oh, you naughty bugs!

Arnie, Barney,

create a diversion!

Ten-four, Sergeant.

I mean nurse!

I mean coach! 10-4, coach!

[Barney]

Diverting a creation now!

- [Arnie and Barney] Hut! Hut!

- Spinder, sling that web!

[groans]

[groans]

[Maya] Craig, Bedford,

scuttle and chomp!

- Scuttle and chomp!

- [teeth chatter]

[Craig whimpers]

[Maya]

Help them out!

[groaning]

[all gasp]

Nowhere to run now!

[cackles]

[Bedford sings]

Drift away

- Huh?

- My little friend

[sighs]

You'll find peace

While you're sleeping

Dream so sweet

So warm and deep

- Drift away to sleep

- [yawns]

To sleep

Oh, so lovely.

Wow! You're amazing, Bedford!

Yes, I know.

Why did you save me?

You were winning.

Because you needed our help.

And that's what real friends do,

they help each other.

They pick you up

when you're down.

- Put me down! Stop!

- Okay. Whoa!

[everyone chuckles]

[sighs]

I'm sorry I was mean to you.

- It's okay.

- No, it's not.

I'm really sorry.

[chuckles]

Thanks, Violet.

Come on,

we've got a race to finish!

You're on.

Oh, the thunder's passed,

but these two teams

are still storming on!

And who will be the first

back into the arena?

Oh, here they come now!

And it's both teams

neck and neck.

[woops] How exciting!

Woohoo! Team Poppy have won it,

for the first time ever!

Team Poppy?

Violet, what have you done!?

- Go, Poppy! [chuckles]

- Go Team Poppy!

[all cheering]

A-ha! They do not have

the ruby pollen!

No pollen, no victory!

- Daddy, enough.

- [Beegood] What?

We cheated.

I cheated.

[gasps]

- [crowd] Boo!

- They cheated?

[crowd shouting]

Team Poppy saved us!

They deserve to win.

- [crowd cheers]

- No they do not.

Hey, Beegood! I've got one thing

to say to you... [belches]

Use your words, Barney.

Use your words.

Ugh!

Oh! The Nani Nani pollen!

They have done it!

- [crowd gasps]

- [gasps]

- [crowd cheers]

- They won! They won!

Quiet.

Quiet!

Silence!

Please.

- Shh.

- [crowd goes silent]

Quiet.

Catherine, Team Poppy have won,

fair and square.

[stammers] I say who wins.

I am the Empress and I...

Yes, you are the Empress.

And I am your sister.

When is enough, enough?

You don't want our honey.

You have everything you need.

Look around.

Do what you know is right.

I can't believe

I'm saying this...

Team Poppy wins.

- [crowd cheering]

- Yes! Woohoo!

We won!

No! Your Majesty!

Oh, shush, Beegood.

Seems your little bee

has what it takes after all.
