Editing Winnie the Pooh Meets the Reluctant Dragon/Transcript (section)

== The boy meets the Gang/Meet the Dragon ==

* (Later, the boy is heading off to where the dragon was spotted, when Pooh and the gang come up behind him, looking for a spot to have their picnic)
*'''Piglet''': My, isn't this a lovely day for a picnic?
*'''Rabbit''': Well, when my ears wigwag like this, it means it's going to rain cats and dogs.
*'''Pooh''': Oh, bother. I hope they bring their own lunch.
*'''Boy''': Who's there?!
*'''Pooh''': No need to worry, we're not going to hurt you.
*'''Boy''': Well, who are you?
*'''Pooh''': Well, this is Piglet, and Tigger, and Rabbit, and Eeyore.
*'''Eeyore''': Thanks for noticing.
*'''Pooh''': And I'm Winnie the Pooh. But you can call me Pooh, for short.
*'''Boy''': Well, keep quiet, please.
*'''Tigger''': Say. What are you doing all the way out here?
*'''Boy''': Hunting a dragon.
*'''Piglet''': DRAGON?! Oh, dear!
*'''Boy''': Keep quiet, he should be close.  (Soon, the boy and his new companions reach the dragon's cave)
*'''Tigger''': This must be where the dragon lives.  (The boy peers in, with slingshot ready, and Piglet listens close, but they neither see or hear anything)
*'''Piglet''': Oh, he must be away on a visit. We should come back later. (But as Piglet tries to sneak away, and as the boy stands ready to fire his slingshot, they hear singing nearby)
*'''Tigger''': What was that?  (The group follows the singing and find the dragon taking a bath)
*'''Boy''': (clears his throat) Hello, dragon.
*(The dragon is caught off guard by the boy suddenly speaking)  
*'''Dragon''': Oh! Oh, now, boy! Don't you throw stones at me or squirt water or anything! I won't have it! Same with your animal friends!
*'''Boy''': Oh, I just came for a friendly chat.
*'''Pooh''': And the five of us were going to have a little picnic.
*'''Boy''': But if we're not wanted...
*'''Dragon''': Oh! Well, do be seated.  (Everyone sits down)
*'''Boy''': Thank you.
*'''Dragon''': But if you don't mind, the other way, please.
*(The boy and the others turn around so the Dragon can go behind a rock and dry off)  
*'''Dragon''': I'll only be a minute.
*'''Boy''': Have you had any nice battles lately?
*'''Dragon''': Battles? Oh, no, no. No battles.
*'''Boy''': Oh. Oh, probably too busy scourging our countryside and devouring fair damsels, then.
*'''Dragon''': Scourging?! Devouring?! Good heavens, no.
*'''Boy''': But don't you ever do anything desperate?
*'''Dragon''': Well, yes. I... (heads over to the boy, Pooh and the gang) I do make up poetry.
*'''Boy''': Poetry?
*'''Dragon''': Verses, you know. Care to hear my latest sonnet?
*'''Boy''': Well, I, uh...
*'''Dragon''': Oh, you'll all love this. I call it: Just A-Drifting.
*(As the dragon recites his poem, the boy and the toys look at his book to see if this dragon is like the one in his book, and clearly it isn't) 
*'''Boy''': Very nice. But you're in for trouble, you know.
*'''Dragon''': Trouble?
*'''Boy''': My father's arousing the village, and they'll be here with spears and things to exterminate you.
*'''Tigger, Piglet, Pooh, Rabbit:''' What?!
*'''Eeyore''': Huh?!
*'''Boy''': It's true, because to the people in the village, dragons are an enemy to the human race.
*'''Rabbit''': How can a dragon that writes poetry be considered an enemy?
*(But the dragon just brushes it off and continues reciting poetry, so the boy, disappointed and annoyed with the dragon being a poet instead of a serious creature, heads back to the village, and the toys soon follow.)
