Editing Pooh's Adventures of The Land Before Time/Transcript (section)

==Going After Green Food/Wherever You Are==

*'''Narrator'''<span>: </span>So, Winnie the Pooh and his friends and the five hungry dinosaurs set off for the Great Valley. There had never been such a herd before A bear, a pig, a tiger, a rabbit, a donkey, a long-neck, a three-horn, a bigmouth, a flier, and a spiketail, all knowing that if they lost their way, they would starve or find themselves in Sharptooth's shadow.
(Which drips to join other droplets streaming down off a prehistoric plan to form a tiny puddle, then a streamlet, and finally, a little brook. We hear Littlefoot discussing the water offstage.)
* '''Littlefoot'''<span class="">: </span>Hmm. Tree stars grow where there's lots of water. lf we follow this water...
* '''Winnie the Pooh:''' Good thing we stopped here. We can all use the drink. While we look for green food.
* '''Tigger:''' (coughs) I'll bet we can follow the stream that'll take them to the oasis.
* '''Eeyore:''' I'm not so sure.
*'''Petrie'''<span class="">: </span>[Sniff Sniff] Hmm. No green foods here, and l still hungry.
*'''Ducky'''<span class="">: </span>l'm still hungry, too. Aah!
*'''Littlefoot'''<span class="">: </span>Can you smell something?
*'''Petrie'''<span class="">: </span>[Sniff Sniff] l...l... l smell... l smell... l smell... Hmm... Ducky.
*'''Ducky'''<span class="">: </span>You smell me? Heh heh.
*'''Eeyore:''' (sniff) I don't smell a thing.
*'''Rabbit:''' What did you smell Littlefoot?
*'''Littlefoot'''<span class="">: </span>l smell water. l smell... tree stars!
*'''Ducky'''<span class="">: Oh, L</span>ook!  Green food!
*'''Cera'''<span class="">: </span>The Great Valley!
*'''Tigger:''' You think this is the Great Valley?
*'''Winnie the Pooh:''' No, we haven’t seen the long-neck rock yet.
*'''Piglet:''' Or the volcanos.
*'''Cera'''<span class="">: </span>l found it!
*'''Littlefoot'''<span class="">: </span>Cera, stop it!
*'''Cera'''<span class="">: </span>l found it!
(Suddenly, we hear rumbling; the earth starts to tremble. Everyone looks around in panic.)
*'''Piglet:''' What was that?
*<span class="">'''Ducky''' </span>Earthshake!
*'''Cera'''<span class="">: </span>We've got to get out of here! That way! Come on!
*'''Cera'''<span class="">: </span>Help!
*'''Ducky'''<span class="">: </span>Spike, hurry up!
*'''Littlefoot'''<span class="">: </span>Ducky, Spike, get out of there!
*'''Ducky:''' (gasps)
*'''Eeyore:''' Something tells me this is not an earthquake...
*'''Winnie the Pooh:''' Look!
(They see a herd diplodocus stampeding their way through.)
*'''Tigger:''' STAMPEDE!!! Duck!
(Everyone ducks down when the herd breaks through the hole runing straight to the oasis like monster locusts, devouring everything they can reach… and they can reach everything. Our little guys and heroes don’t have a chance against these ravenous marauders. In minutes the oasis is decimated. The herd moves on, smacking their lips.)
*'''Cera'''<span class="">: </span>They're eating our food!
*'''Eeyore:''' Should have known.
*'''Cera:''' Look, look what they're doing! They're so greedy! What about me? l'm still hungry!
*'''Petrie'''<span class="">: </span>Haah! You hungry? l empty to the top. Now we at the Great Valley and still no foods. We be hungry forevers. Ohh!
*'''Littlefoot'''<span class="">: </span>Aw, Petrie. Cera was wrong. This isn't the Great Valley.
*'''Ducky'''<span class="">: </span>Oh, it is not a great anything. Nope, nope, nope.
*'''Piglet:''' We're sorry kids.
*'''Winnie the Pooh:''' I know what you mean Petrie. Even my tummy can't be fooled.
*'''Eeyore:''' Well, that was disappointing. What do we do now?
*'''Rabbit:''' I think we better get down there and see if there's any leaves left on those trees.
(As the ten friends walk among the trees, Littefoot spies one single tree that still has food very high up and out of reach.)
*'''Littlefoot'''<span class="">: </span>We better go down and see if anything's left. Petrie, could you fly up there and--
*'''Petrie'''<span class="">: </span>No!
*'''Ducky'''<span class="">: </span>Petrie, do not feel sad. Many things do not fly--Rocks, trees, sticks, Spike.
*'''Tigger:''' (looks up the tree and gets an idea) Hmm? Complete out of reach eh? Well, I guess I just better bounce up there and get those green food you kiddies down. Stand back. This is gonna take a world's record bounce.
[Tigger bounce up to the leafs three times but couldn't reach them. He glared at his tail as he falls back down to the ground]

* '''Tigger:''' What's the matter with you? Bein' a second-rate bouncer is not what tiggers like best.

(He bounces up again. The branch eventually snaps off and falls down and collided with Tigger in mid-air and they both tumble onto Rabbit. Tigger opens his eyes and see one branch with leaves fall down with him.)
*'''Tigger:''' Hoo-Hoo-Hoo-Hoo! Well would ya look at that. I got one branch for them (chuckles)
*'''Rabbit:''' With two leaves.
*'''Tigger:''' (gulps)
*'''Cera:''' (laughs) Is that the best you can do?
*'''Rabbit:''' Well, if Tigger can't do it! I can just watch this Cera. (climbs the tree but he slips down to the ground.) Obviously this tree wasn't build for rabbits.
*'''Winnie the Pooh:''' It's no use. Think, think, think. (gasp) I know. (chuckles) Littlefoot, um, could you come here, please?
*Littlefoot: What is it Pooh?
*WInnie the Pooh: How about you go first? Then Ducky and I will climb onto you so that Petrie can get the green food down.
*'''Littlefoot:''' Yeah, let's try that.
*'''Winnie the Pooh:''' Because...What we need is...teamwork.
(Littlefoot puts his front paws high up on the tree trunk. Pooh and Ducky scurries up to Littlefoot’s head to lift Petrie on her shoulders. Upward the group stretches and strains to reach the delicious green food.)
*'''Petrie'''<span class="">: </span>Waah!
*'''Littlefoot:''' Hey!
*'''Petrie:''' No!
*'''Littlefoot'''<span class="">: </span>Ducky, push Petrie towards the branches.
*'''Petrie'''<span class="">: </span>Ohh!
*'''Littlefoot'''<span class="">: </span>Alright, Spike, not too fast.
(Spike burrows under Littefoot’s legs and lifts him onto his own shoulders.)
*'''Pooh and Littlefoot:''' Whoa!
*'''Littlefoot'''<span class="">: </span>Ok. Hey, not too fast. Hey, not too fast!
*'''All:''' Aah!
(Petrie almost fall by grabbing Ducky's tail and looks down and got scare and jumps on Ducky's face and covered her eyes. Cera laughs at amusement of the scene.)
*'''Rabbit''': Cera, this is no laughing matter! They're trying to get all of your food too.
*'''Cera'''<span class="">: Yeah, but </span>these five looks so ridiculous. Ha ha ha ha!
(The group zips upwards amongst the leaves. Petrie, eyes clenched shut with fear, now blindly swats at the leafs around him, knocking only a few loose. Hungry, Spike goes bug-eyed as a lone leaf flutters past his nose. Forgetting he’s holding the others up, he staggers determinedly after it. The stack of dinosaurs sways over, Petrie yelling frantically. SPIKE spots another falling leaf and stumbles after it in the opposite direction. The dinosaur stack sways the other way. As Petrie passes the branch again, he grabs hold for dear life. Ducky hangs onto Petrie for the same reason. Pooh, Littlefoot, and Spike crash to the ground.)
*'''Winnie the Pooh:''' Oh bother!
*'''Petrie<span class="">:</span>''' Ohh!
*'''Winnie the Pooh:''' (sighs) I wish that Spike could stay still a little longer.
*'''Rabbit:''' That's alright! This should be enough for the kids to eat.
*'''Tigger:''' That's throwin' your weight around, buddy bear! Imagine, helping gettin' all those leafs a zillion to one!
*'''Littlefoot'''<span class="">: </span>Ducky, Petrie, come down here! We've got green food!
(Ducky kisses Petrie on the cheek before letting go and fell to the ground.)
*'''Ducky'''<span class="">: </span>Fly, Petrie!
(As the branch breaks loose, PETRIE ends up hanging from a single leaf. It snaps free and they plummet! Petrie screams. At the last instant.)
*'''Petrie'''<span class="">: </span>Aah!
*<span class="">'''Littlefoot''': </span>Fly, Petrie! Flap your wings!
*'''Petrie'''<span class="">: </span>[Awk]
(Littlefoot takes a deep breath and blows a gust of air upward. Petrie floats back down onto a soft landing on the pile of leafs. Petrie slowly, fearfully opens one eye, then the other, relieved to see he’s safe.)
*'''Petrie:''' l flied?
*'''Rabbit:''' Well...you tried flapping your wings and....
*'''Tigger:''' Not even close kid.
*'''Winnie the Pooh:''' It looks to me as if your learning to fall.
*'''Petrie:''' Me no good flying, huh?
*'''Winnie the Pooh:''' Oh no, very good, for going down. (giggles) What you need is a way for going up.
*'''Eeyore:''' Now that we got them green food. What are going do about it?
*'''Rabbit:''' I say we shall all settle down for tonight and have some dinner.
*'''Ducky:''' But what about you guys?
*'''Piglet:''' Don't worry Ducky. We always came in prepared.
*'''Tigger:''' When it come to adventures. We always brought some food with us. (shows them some honey and bread.)
*'''Littlefoot:''' Wow, you guys are good.
*'''Piglet:''' Well, we never leave home without food.
*'''Winnie the Pooh:''' So, we better start eating. (puts some honey in his mouth.)
(Littlefoot then went over to Cera. She was on a patch of ground just a meter lower, near another tree that also had food.)
*'''Littlefoot'''<span class="">: </span>Come on, Cera. We've got green food.
*'''Cera'''<span class="">: </span>l can get my own green food.
*'''Piglet:''' Pooh? Why does Cera always so...so stubborn with us?
*'''Winnie the Pooh:''' Well, perhaps she's just not as fond of us. Piglet.
*'''Rabbit:''' Well, I tried to talk to her. But she said I'm not even her father.
*'''Tigger:''' Really, all she ever cares about is herself.
(Cera then started ramming herself into the tree, trying to shake the leaves loose with sheer brute force. Littlefoot gathered up some leafs in his mouth He waited for Cera to crashing into the tree trunk, then he threw their leafs down, making it look like Cera's method had worked. Cera shook her head and opened her eyes to sees fallen leafs around her. he smugly grinned and heartily helped herself.)
*'''Cera:''' See? l can take care of myself... all by myself. 
*'''Tigger:''' Yeah, sure you can.
*'''Cera:''' What did you say?!
*'''Tigger:''' Uh, nothing!
*'''Cera:''' That's what I thought.
*'''Winnie the Pooh:''' Are you sure that you can take care of yourself Cera?
*'''Cera:''' Of course I can! I don't need any of you looking out for me.
(Cera lies down a little way off and shouts back to the others''')'''
*'''Cera:''' And l'm not afraid to be alone! l know my way to go, and l'm not afraid of Sharptooth! l hope he doesn't eat any of you.
*'''Littlefoot'''<span class="">: </span>Don't worry. There isn't any sharptooth.
*'''Ducky''' [whispers] Sharptooth... Spike.
(Ducky escorts Spike away from Littlefoot. Everyone decided to camp out for the night. Pooh, Piglet, Tigger, Rabbit, Eeyore and Littlefoot walked over to the footprint but stopped and see Spike, Ducky and Petrie have left their side and are snuggling securely up to Cera just in case there is a Sharptooth and just in case he should return. They sleep and a soft snore begins. Pooh, Piglet, Tigger, Rabbit, Eeyore and Littlefoot feel dejected.)
*'''Pooh and Pals:''' Oh bother.
*'''Rabbit:''' Since, we can't tell Cera what to do. Guess we'll just have to give her some time to trust us.
*'''Winnie the Pooh:''' But she is also difficult.
*Eeyore: I know what you mean.
*'''Littlefoot'''<span class="">: (sighs sadly) </span>There isn't any sharptooth.
*'''Tigger:''' Don't worry about it Littlefoot. I'm sure she'll come around.
*'''Rabbit:''' Yes, we'll prove her wrong. Once we get to the Great Valley. We'll make sure we'll get you and Cera, Ducky, Petrie and Spike back to your herds safe and sound.
*'''Littlefoot:''' You're right.
(Pooh and Pals and Littlefoot climb into the footprint and get themselves tucked in.)

* '''Tigger:''' (yawns) Oh well. I guess we should try to get some sleep we have a long day tomorrow. (chuckles and fells asleep.) Well pleasent dreams. T-T-F-N.
* '''Rabbit:''' (climbs into his sleeping bag.) Hmph. I hope Cera is wrong. I know that there's no Sharptooth following us. (screams because something's inside his sleeping bag.) He's in my sleeping bag.
* '''Piglet:''' Have you notice how dark and spooky it is out here? All of a sudden?
* '''Rabbit:''' (laughs nervously.) Take it from me Piglet. There is no Sharptooth tonight. Now go along to bed.
* '''Winnie the Pooh''': Um, Littlefoot? Is something the matter
* '''Littlefoot''': I was just thinking I know we've come from a long way. But what if they don't listen to me.
* '''Winnie the Pooh''': Oh, they will. I'm sure things will work out.
* '''Littlefoot''': I know. But I can't stop thinking about my mother.
* '''Winnie the Pooh''': You still miss her?
* '''Littlefoot''': Yeah I do.
* '''Winnie the Pooh''': I know what you mean. I too miss a very best friend of mine. Named Christopher Robin. He's acutally a human. Which is kind of a long story. But I know when I come home I'll tell him all about the adventures we had. And even about you Littlefoot.

[The song Wherever You Are starts playing as Pooh look up at the night sky, sadly]

'''[Winnie the Pooh]''' 

Come out, moon-

Come out, wishing star~

Come out, come out~

Wherever you are~

I'm out here in the dark,~

All alone and wide awake~

Come and find me~

I'm empty and I'm cold~

And my heart's about to break~

Come and find me~

I need you to come here and find me~

'Cause without you~

I'm totally lost~

I've hung a wish on every star~

It hasn't done much good so far~

I can only dream of you~

Wherever you are~

I'll hear you laugh~

I'll see you smile~

I'll be with you~

(giggles)

Just for a while~

But when the morning comes and the sun begins to rise~

I will lose you~

Because it's just a dream when I open up my eyes~

I will lose you~

I used to believe in forever~

But forever's too good to be true~

I've hung a wish on every star~

It hasn't done much good so far~

I don't know what else to do~

Except to try to dream of you~

And wonder, if you are dreaming too~

Wherever you are~

[Yawns] Oh, my.

Wherever you are~

[Pooh went to sleep back on the footprint as he got all snuggled up by Littlefoot making sure that isn't alone. It is Ducky who wakes first to the cacophonous racket of the group snoring. Lured by the melancholy of Littlefoot’s soft humming, she quickly (like sleepwalking) finds her way to his side and cuddles next to him. She is soon followed by Petrie, then Spike. Cera Shivering, stubbornly trying to sleep alone. When she’s sure the others are asleep, she creeps over to the group and cuddles up to them.]
