Kairi Meets Steelbeak's Group/Escaping Felicia

(After her visit with Rabbit, Kairi hurried home, clutching the envelope to her chest. She entered a hollow log and stopped. There was a disturbance at the other end. She climbed up through a hole in the top of the log and approached the sound from above. Blue string is tangled in the branches at the far end. Kairi peered over the end of the log and saw a male anthro rooster with a metal beak hanging upside down, tangled in the string and making frustrated noises. He is Steelbeak. Nearby him not tangled up are four other males, and they are fast asleep, snoring away, as if they were supposed to be on lookout, but then fell asleep on the job for the rooster)

Is everything all right here? What the.. Oh! Lady, don't sneak up on me like that! I didn't mean to frighten you... Oh, you didn't frighten me, I was just sort of... working out. You just broke my concentration, that's... You look more like you're all tangled up. Er, yeah I guess that's enough exercise for one day. Besides, I'm really after this terrific string! I'm working on a love nest for two. You know what I mean? Oh I see... you have a girl. Well, not really, I mean... I haven't found Miss Right yet. But when I do the whole world will hear us singing... Excuse me, pardon me. Well, you keep making all that noise and Dragon will hear you. If he hasn't already. Wouldn't you sing too? I mean if you felt... heh heh... if you felt the call of the wild, but... I would... I would not if I knew there was a cat nearby. but.. but SHE'S out there... somewhere... and when I find her I'll feel it way down in my wishbone! I... What cat? Dragon! He belongs to Farmer Fitzgibbons. Look towards the house. See if you can see him. Come back down here! He'll see you for sure up there! Hey, there's a cat out there! Quiet! Does he see you? No. Yes! Stand perfectly still. Everything's fine... he's headed right for us. Don't panic! Fast or slow? Medium. Make that fast. Very f... I have to go now! Excuse me, I really... Break! Oh my goodness. It's a rabbit! Well of all the silly nincompoops! You got yourself all worked up over a rabbit! You should have seen yourself! Will you keep quiet? You were scared stiff! A rabbit! I knew it all along! Will you hush up? Admit it! You were scared! Oh... fiddlesticks. Hold still. If I had actually been near a cat, I'd be sneezing my brains out. See, I'm allergic to ca... I'm allergic to caaaaa... I'm allergic to caaaaa... I'm allerg... AHHH-CHOOOO! Excuse me, pardon me. The string, quick! Grab the string! Hey, Miss Mouse, don't worry, I'm ok. See? I'm alright. That's not the reason I'm crying. I lost Timmy's medicine. Aw, don't cry. I hate to see a woman cry... Hey! Was I great, or was I great? Did you see that cat out there? All dripping, and... and wet... with water... I'll... go back to Mr. Ages tommorow, and... You weren't so bad yourself. Hey, we make a pretty good team! Oh, here, you dropped this back there. Nobody messes with ol' Jeremy, boy. Nobody! That's it! Timmy's medicine! Oh, thank you! Thank you so much! Huh? It i... what? It is? I mean, it is. Well, I saw it lying there, and I said uh... My name is Jeremy. I'm Mrs. Brisby. Thanks again! I have to go home now. Uh, where's home? In the garden patch, by the stone. do you like me? Of course I like you! Bye now. No! I mean... I mean, um... I mean you don't think I'm clumsy or anything? Oh... sorry. Excuse me, pardon me. Oh. Well, if you're going to feather a nest you've got a lot to learn about how to treat a lady! Right. When you're right, you're right. And you're right. None of the girls I meet want to get serious! I doubt they'd survive. Huh? Maybe it's my approach. Say! You were a girl once! You could teach me how to... you know, how to... Behave yourself? I'm not that bad! I just need a few pointers to polish my style. Jeremy, I have got to go home! Well let me... Let me fly you home! We can talk on the way! Oh, no thank you. I'm afraid of heights. OK, then we'll walk. Bye now. I think I got real potential I mean, girls go for the athletic type, don't they? Jeremy, you're stepping on my tail. Excuse me, pardon me...
