The Three Little Bears (episode 1)

The Three Little Bears

Episode 1.



“She-Wolf Attack”

Once upon a time, down in the woods of Bictoria, a small city situated in Banada, there lived 3 little bears. Their names were Kir Bear, Ali Bear and Cher Bear. They all lived in a little house off a little hilltop deep in little bear country, deep into the woods where they spent their days doing what little bears around the world do. Basically nothing much.

One day, Cher Bear decided to go off into the woods to pick up some berries and bring them back for everybody. Although in reality, she intended to eat the good berries while in the woods and bring the bad ones home and offer them to Kir and Ali Bear. And when asked to take her portion, she would refuse in a “gesture” of kindness. But this day would not turn out to be like the others. Unknown to Cher Bear, a big bad she-wolf had moved into the woods to live there having run away from the mountains after a big fight with another she-wolf. Her name was Sarrow the she-wolf. And what an angry she-wolf she was. With a mighty temper that made even the trees in the woods quiver when she was nearby.

So, as Cher Bear was busy picking out berries, while eating the good ones and attempting to sing at the same time. Her singing was terrible but doing it while eating berries made it even more excruciating to listen to. It was her terrible singing that awoke Sarrow the she-wolf from her deep slumber and she was not at all amused. She tried to go back to sleep but the noise coming from about 100 feet was too much to bear. So she pricked her ears to listen a little. She could hear a little bear belting out the theme tune to Different Strokes. The more she listened, the more she winced. But then, it finally hit her that it was a Little Bear singing. She immediately got up with her ears standing straight up like antennas and her mouth began to water. Little Bear she thought. How juicy they were. At least that’s what she had heard from other wolves up in the mountains.

She then decided to follow the music until she finally got to where Cher Bear was. Cher Bear who was at the moment struggling with a certain twig full of berries did not hear Sarrow the she-wolf creep up behind her. Neither did she realize that Sarrow was there until Sarrow had her pinned on the ground. Cher Bear let out a small scream and tried to run but Sarrow was too strong for her. It was then that Sarrow prepared to take a big bite off Cher Bears arse when Cher Bear told her to wait. Cher Bear then revealed she knew where Sarrow could find two even more juicier little bears than her. Sarrow could not believe it. More little bears. “Where”, she growled at Cher Bear, “are these other little bears?” Cher Bear asked Sarrow to follow her and led her straight to where she lived with Kir Bear and Ali Bear. “In there” she said. “There is a key hidden below the doormat at the back door”. So, Sarrow crept up to the back door and lifted the doormat and found the key. But unfortunately for her, Ali Bear who had been seated near the window reading a copy of his favourite piece of literature, the 3 Musketbears, saw Sarrow coming and let out a small yelp. He ran into the kitchen where Kir Bear was boiling some water while preparing dinner. He told her that a she-wolf was trying to get into their little home through the back door and apparently, she knew where the key was. “Quick, grab the pot with the boiling water in it” said Ali Bear. “As soon as she turns the key on the lock, I will quickly open the door and you throw the hot water on her” said Ali Bear in his soft voice. “Okay” said Kir Bear in her even softer voice.

So, they ran into the living room and when Sarrow the she-wolf turned the key on the back doors lock, Ali Bear quickly opened it and Kir Bear threw the boiling water on her. “AAAAAUUUUUUUHHHH” screamed out Sarrow like no she-wolf before her had screamed before. She then took off like a comet back into the woods screaming even louder than before.
Cher Bear had seen everything that had happened but had decided to lay low for about 1 hour and then went home with her berries. Ali Bear and Kir Bear told her everything and they could not understand how Sarrow the she-wolf knew where the key was. Cher Bear said nothing but sat there pretending to be totally shocked.

2 weeks later, Cher Bear set off to the woods again to get some berries. This time she went off to another part of the woods but unbestknown to her, Sarrow the she-wolf had moved into that part of the woods too. She started picking up berries while belting out the tune to the Titanic movie by Beline Bion, her favourite little bear singer. It was then that Sarrow had her singing and pricked up her ears. She recognized the voice and she grew angry as she remembered what had transpired two weeks before. She quickly crept up on Cher Bear again and in no time had Cher Bear pinned down. This time she opened her mouth wide with every intention of taking a bite off Cher Bears arse.

“Wait” screamed out Cher Bear once again, “don’t eat me Miss Wolf, I can tell you where you can find some gold which you can use to buy some fresh steak at the market”. Sarrow considered the proposal and decided to let Cher Bear lead her to this gold. Cher Bear led her back to where she lived with Kir and Ali Bear and told Sarrow that there was a shovel at the back which she could use to dig out the gold the 3 little bears had once discovered in the woods. Sarrow followed Cher Bears instructions and in no time was digging up the gold.

This time, it was Kir Bear who spotted her and told Ali Bear about it. Ali Bear quickly got out his bow and arrow set and asked Kir Bear to open up the windows wide so that he could get a good shot at Sarrow the She-wolfs arse. Kir Bear did as she was told and Ali Bear shot out two arrows which hit Sarrow straight in the arse. “AAAAUUUUUUHHHH” screamed out Sarrow the she wolf and jumped up high before running off into the woods again. Kir Bear and Ali Bear waited until they were sure she was gone and went into the backyard to dig up the gold. Ali Bear took up the shovel and dug while Kir Bear looked out to see if Sarrow might creep back. They reburied the gold in another spot and quickly ran back into the house.

Cher Bear who had heard Sarrow scream out in pain and had seen her take off into the woods like a race horse, waited for about 1 hour before going back into the house. Ali Bear and Kir Bear told her everything and wondered how Sarrow knew where the gold was. Cher Bear listened in silence, while making every effort to appear as innocent as possible. Kir Bear and Ali Bear went to bed disturbed that night while Cher Bear snored like a little pig.

Another two weeks later, Cher Bear went off into the woods to pick up some berries again. This time she decided not to sing so as not to attract any attention. But unfortunately for her, Sarrow the she wolf who happened to be taking a walk after her daily afternoon nap walked smack right into Cher Bear. And when she recognized the little bear, her rage grew until Cher Bear thought she might explode like a volcano and kill both of them right on the spot. Cher Bear tried to ran away but Sarrow caught up with her and pinned her right to the ground. This time there was no mistake, she was definitely going to take a chump off Cher Bears arse. Cher Bear wailed like she had never wailed before and asked Sarrow for mercy and forgiveness. But Sarrow would have nothing of it and once again prepared to take a bite of Cher Bears arse. Cher Bear pleaded with her while making her eyes as big and innocent as she could. Sarrow felt sorry for her and decided to hear her out one last time. Cher Bear told her that she would lead Sarrow back to their little house and Sarrow could hide in the big grass at the front while Cher Bear screamed “Snake, snake, snake”. When Ali Bear and Kir Bear came out to help Cher Bear, Sarrow could leap out from her hiding place and eat the 2 little bears. Sarrow agreed and they went back to the little house where Cher Bear lived. Sarrow hid in the big grass at the front as they had agreed while Cher Bear screamed out “Snake, snake, snake”. Upon hearing her, Kir Bear and Ali Bear ran out with Ali Bear carrying a shovel. But as they got near to where Cher Bear was, Ali Bear spotted Sarrow’s huge bushy tail sticking out of the grass. “Look out” he screamed at Kir Bear, who ducked out of the way when Sarrow attempted to jump on her. Sarrow missed Kir Bear and just as she was about to strike again, Ali Bear struck her right on the head with the shovel. Sarrow passed out right on the spot.

Ali Bear looked up to Cher Bear and noticed that there was no snake nearby. But they all ran back into the house and after 10 minutes, Sarrow the she-wolf came around and silently left for the woods. Ali Bear wondered how Cher Bear could not have seen Sarrow hiding in the grass. After all, her tail was sticking right out. Not only that, but he did not remember seeing any snake nearby. Ali Bear became suspicious about Cher Bear and started to believe that she had set them up. Cher Bear became indignant at the claim and threatened to punch Ali Bear. But Ali Bear was not buying it and Kir Bear was also not buying Cher Bears story. It was then that Cher Bear broke down uncontrollably and confessed. She told them how she had been afraid that Sarrow would eat her up and she just broke down and told her everything. She claimed that she was delirious when Sarrow had jumped her.

Ali Bear was really angry and asked Kir Bear to throw Cher Bear out. But Cher Bear looked at Kir Bear with her big eyes which welled with tears. Kir Bear was undecided but after some time she decided to let Cher Bear stay on. After all, maybe it was true that Cher Bear was delirious and was not in her right mind when she told Sarrow about them and the gold. So, Cher Bear got to stay on and her relationship with Ali Bear deteriorated even more. They had never really liked each other.
And so, peace and calm returned to the 3 little bear household……….
