Hey! Princess is in danger!

Check it out below.

Princess is in danger!

You're a cool mouse.

You want some soup?

No, not like ...

Princess is in danger!

A mouse who speaks ...

Listen, I gotta help me!

Maybe unpic cheese?

No! I do not want cheese!

Princess! It's in danger!

It closed the basement!

No, Mouse-boy.

Everything is fine.

Princess is in perfect safety, top ...

Look ...

Where are you?

Tell me again!

Cavalry! Courage! Honor!

Cavalry, courage, honor.

I feel good! Finally out!

Here.

Down there!

Where did it go?

Friends! Friends!

There are rats, and there are rats.

I want a row of applause to our friend.

Because he delivered ... Our princess.

Go, go!

Wait! Where you going? Help!

Hey, look at that!

Grab him, boys!

Go! I leave!

Good shot.

I lost onions.

Help! Help!

I help someone

Help!

I'm here!

Here! Here!

God ... What took you so long?

Scream here 2 hours.

My little princess ...

Check it out!

Up there!

Go Despereaux.

Wait a minute!

Patience!

Not yet!

The honor is all yours, buddy.

Okay, you remember when I said that anger

is the strongest feeling?

Well, not e.

It's forgiveness.

For a single act of forgiveness

can change everything.

What?

Netrebnicule!

Help!

Who gave him the way?

Hey! You!

E mouse that.

Grab it!

If it is not our brave companion.

I am curious ...

Let me finish myself?

Or to give the cat?

Kitty kitty kitty ...

What is this?

Please!

Kitten.

Thank you, my good gentleman.

Sorry ...

Wed should worry me.

I'm very very very bad.

You have no idea what I'm sorry.

Never mind.

I am so sorry.

You can say it was a big misunderstanding.

King was hurt, so hurt a rat,

a rat was hurt, so he hit a princess

... a princess was hurt so he wants to hurt without a maid.

And the maid had suffered so long,

that nothing could make you happy.

Have been a mistake?

Or was it just luck?

Because the servant came back to the farm.

And a guard and had found the princess.

and a king has found something more powerful than pain.

and mice have escaped from fear.

and people lived with rats.

All except one.

... who is back at sea, you feel a cool breeze

every dimineatza ...

... and the sun on his face every afternoon.

And I say that everyone lived happily ever after.

But ...

what would be fun in that?

End.
