Ash Pan part 2 - Meet the Darling Family


 * Narrator: All this has happened before, andf it will happen again. But this time it happend in London. It happend on a quiet street in Bloomsbury. That corner house over there is the ome of the Darling family. And Ash Ketchum chose this particular house, beacuse there were animals in there who believed in him. There was Mrs. Darling

(In the bathroom of the corner house, there was a beautiful princess with fair skin, long blonde hair, blue eyes, and little pink lips. Right now, she was wearing a white underdress, white bloomers, white stockings, and red ballet slippers. She as known as Princess Peach, and she was fixing her hair in front of a mirror for a party.)


 * Princess Peach/ Mary Darling: (hummimg) Mario, dear, do hurry! We musn't be late for the party you know.


 * Narrator: Mrs. Darling believed that Darkwing Duck was the spirit of youth. But Mr. Darling...

(In the parents' bedroom, there was a fat plumber with brown hair and a black mustache, wearing only a red shirt, white boxer shorts, and brown loafers. He was known as Mario. At that moment, he was searching through his drawers for his white gloves.)


 * Mario/Mr. Darling: Peach, unless I find-a my gloves, we don't go to the party. And if we don't go to the party, I can never show my face fighting off-a Bowser again. And if i can never- OUCH!


 * Narrator: Well, Mr. Darling was a practical man. The boys, however, Milo and Peter, believed Darkwing Duck was a real animal, and made him a hero of all their nursery games.

(In the window of the nusery, we see two shadows fighting the other with wooden toy swords. One has one in its left hand and a hanger in its left hand while the other has another in his right.)

(One of the shadows belonged to a 9-year-old boy with brown hair and eyes; plus, he wore an aquamarine two-piece pajama set, white socks, black slippers, and a fake paper crown. He was known as Milo, and he was the one with a toy sword in his left and and the hanger in his right hand.)

(''The other shadow belonged to a 6-year-old boy with blond hair, a pink nose, and blue eyes. He also wore red footy pajamas consisting of pink at the collar and wristbands, snaps, and white soles and a matching hat. He was known as SkunkPeter, and he was the one with a toy sword in his right hand.)


 * Milo/John: Blast you, Ash Ketchum!
 * Peter/Michael: Take that! Give up Captain Leonidas? Give up?
 * Milo/John: Never! (pulling open a drawer that is under Peter's pajama-clad feet.) I'll teach you to cut off me paw!

(Just about then, a 10-year-old girl, named May Maple, walked in. She had bluish-green eyes and brown hair in two ponytails and wore a red nightgown, white bloomers, and yellow ballet slippers. She was also carrying a jug.)


 * May Maple/Wendy: (chuckling) Oh no, Milo. It was the left paw.
 * Milo/John: Oh yes. Thank you, May.
 * Narrator: May Maple, the eldest, not only believed. She was the supreme authority on Ash Ketchum and all his marvelous adventures.
 * May/Wendy: Oh, Rajah, Must we always take that nasty tonic?

(A tiger, named Rajah, walks in the nursery in with a tray containing a bottle of tonic and three spoons on his head.)


 * Narrator: Rajah the butler, being a tiger, kept his opinions to himself and viewed the whole affair with a certain tolerance.

(Rajah puts the medicine and spoons in the table, and went to fix a few messes)


 * Peter/Michael: Take that!
 * Milo/John: Insolent boy, I'll slash you to ribbons!
 * Peter/Michael: And I'll cut you to peices! Aha!
 * Milo/John: Ouch! Careful, Peter! You almost poked my eye out!
 * Peter/Michael: I'm sorry, Milo.
 * Milo/John: Ah! You'll never leave this ship alive!
 * Peter/Michael: Oh Yes I will! Take that!

(Noticing that the top blocks were mixed, Rajah fixes them and goes to the table to get the tonic ready)


 * Milo/John: Scuttle me bones, boy! I'll slit your gizzard! (ripping a fake deck)

(Rajah was putting the medicine on the spoons)


 * Peter/Michael: Oh no, you won't! Back, back, back, you villian!
 * Milo/John: Insolent pup!

(''Rajah looks up in shock, thinking Milo was talking to him, but he knew he and Peter were just pretending, so he did nothing)


 * Peter/Michael: Wicked Pirate!

(Seeing medicine on his paw, Rajah took a taste of the medicine, but he disliked the taste.)


 * Milo/John: Aha! I gotcha!
 * Peter/Michael: You didn't, either. you never touched me. Take that! And that! And THAT!

(Pretending he was dead, Milo placed his hand over his chest, groaned a fake groan, and fell to the floor.)


 * Mario/George: (walking in) Boys, boys, less noise please. (knocking down the block castle)
 * Milo/John: Oh, hello, Father.
 * Peter/Michael: You old bilge rat!
 * Mario/George: Wha...Wha..What!? Now see here, Peter!
 * Milo/John: Oh, not you, Father. You see, he's Ash Ketchum.
 * Peter/Michael: And Milo's Captain Leonidas.
 * Mario/George: Yes, yes, of course. Er... have you seel my gloves? (tripping on Rajah, making him knock the castle blocks... again.) Oh, Rajah, for goodness sake! Where are those gloves!?

(Rajah furiously hits a few blocks)


 * Milo/John: Gloves, Father?
 * Mario/George: Yes, the white ones.
 * Milo/John: Peter, the buried treasure. Where is it?
 * Peter/Michael: I don't know.
 * Milo/John: The map, then. Where's the treasure map?
 * Peter/Michael: It got lost.
 * Mario/George: Good heavens! My blue overalls!
 * Peter/Michael: Hurray! You found them! You found them!
 * Mario/George: Yes, so I have. And hereafter... Don't paw me, Peter! These are my last clean...no! NO!

(Peach, now wearing a pink gown, a gold crown with a ruby in the center, long white gloves, and plenty of make-up, walked in the nursery)


 * Peach/Mary: Mario, dear, we really must hurry or we'll be...
 * Mario/George: Peach! Look!
 * Peach/ Mary: Mario!
 * Peter/Michael: It's only chalk, Father.
 * Peach/Mary: Why Peter...
 * Milo/John: It's not his fault. It's in the story. And May said...
 * Mario/George: May? Story? I might've known. May!? MAY!
 * May/Wendy: Yes, father?
 * Mario/George: Would you kindly explain...
 * May/Wendy: Oh, mother! You look simply lovely!
 * Peach/Mary: Thank you, dear.
 * Mario/George: May...
 * Peach/Mary: Just my old gown made over, but it did turn all right, and I...
 * Mario/George: Peach, If you don't mind, I'd...
 * May/Wendy: Why, father! What have you done to your overalls?
 * Mario/George: What...have...I? (groans)
 * Peach/Mary: Now, Mario, really. It comes right off.
 * Mario/George: That's no excuse! May! Haven't I warned you, stuffing the boys' heads with a lot of silly stories!
 * May/Wendy: Oh, but they aren't!
 * Mario/George: I say they are! Captain Leodocious! Ash Ketchup!
 * May/Wendy: Ash Ketchum, father.
 * Mario/George: Ketchum, ketchup, Poppycock!

(May, Milo, and Peter began protesting at once)


 * Mario/George: ABSOLUTE POPPYCOCK! And let me tell you, this ridiculous...
 * Peach/Mary: (about to put on his red hat with a red "M" in the center) Now, Mario...
 * Mario/George: Now Mario? Now, Mario!? WELL, "NOW MARIO" WILL HAVE HIS SAY! (He took the hat from her and put it on himself, only to realize that he put it on backwards)
 * Peach/Mary: (turning his hat around) Please, dear.
 * Mario/George: Peach, the child's growing up. It's hight time she had a room of her own!
 * May/Wendy: Father!
 * Peach/Mary: Mario!
 * Milo/John: What?
 * Peter/Michael: No.

(Blocks fell out of Rajah's mouth as he gasped in shock)


 * Mario/George: I mean it! Young lady, this is your last night in the nursery! And that's my last word on the matter!

(He turned to leave, but trips over Rajah. The tiger tried to run, but he was unaware that he was being knocked into the blocks by Mario...again. Rajah tripped on a toy wagon, and he passed it to Mario, who was now standing on the wagon.)


 * Mario/George: No! NO!

(And with a large crash, he crashed into a drawer, and Rajah bumped into a wall. Some toys fell from the drawer and onto his head.)


 * May/Wendy, Milo/John, Peter/Michael, and Peach/Mary: oh!

(Mario is happy thinking they feel sorry for him, but, instead, they run over to Rajah.)


 * May/Wendy, Milo/John, Peter/Michael, and Peach/Mrs. Darling: Poor Rajah!
 * Mario/George: Poor Rajah? (Standing up and pionting to the half open door) This is the last straw! Out! OUT I SAY!
 * Peter/Michael: (embracing Rajah) No, Father, no!
 * Mario/George: Yes! (''dragging Rajah across the nusery with Peter still clinging to him) THERE'LL BE NO MORE TIGERS FOR BUTLERS IN THIS HOUSE!

(Peach picks up Peter)

(Peter begins to cry)


 * Peter/Michael: Goodbye, Rajah. (Rajah waves back)
 * Mario/George: (dragging Rajah out) Poor Rajah! Oh yes, Poor Rajah! But poor father? Oh no! Blast it! Where is that rope? (He turned to see Rajah with the rope in his mouth) Oh, thank you. (As he was tying the rope onto Rajah's neck a little lose, he noticed a disappointed look on his face.) Oh, dash it all, Rajah. D-don't look at me like that. (getting him a bowl of water from the fountain) It's nothing personal, it's just that, well, you're not really a butler at all you're, well, a tiger.. And the children aren't tiger cubs, they're people. And sooner of or later, Rajah, people have to grow up.

(Then he walked away, leaving Rajah sad, disapointed, and discouraged.)
