Harry and Larry pull Fibh towards them and begin to fly away, worried that the cats may have heard their conversations.

Wise Owl replies “You'll understand my child, just go and see Charlie”.

The Wise Owl replies “Bring him before me” in a deep long, upper class, british accent.

Fibh, slightly scared, slowly comes forward “Yes, Wise Owl, my name is Fibh and I have come from far away to learn the answer to my dream, my dream of changing the way I am. And I have been told that you can make my dream come true?”.

“What is it you ask? Speak up Boy!” Owl screeches.

“Oh yes, Mighty Owl, I would like to know the secret of how you become a boy?” Fibh asks.

“A Boy!?” Larry looks at Harry.

“A Boy!?” Harry looks at Larry.

“Well I never in all my years” Larry continues.

“Well I never in all my years” Larry continues.

“Let... Him... Speak” looking at Fibh.

“Yes, I want to become a boy. With arms and legs, and hair on my head, and to be as tall as... as tall as that” pointing to a small tree 6ft tall.

“Well now, a boy you say?” Wise Owl knows this is a difficult, and an impossible task, but he sees that Fibh has been on such a long, dangerous journey and he is wise enough not to break a young birds heart. He looks at Harry and Larry. “Take him to the Central Park Zoo, there you will introduce him to my dear friend Charlie”.

The Wise Owl looks at Fibh “Once you have met with Charlie, he will tell you the secret”.

they're cunning and fast, just keep your eyes and ears open”. Larry explains.

“Now follow me”. Larry shouts as he lifts off from the roof.

They fly slowly alongside a fence on the edge of the park. “There's the tree where our old friend the Owl hangs out” says Harry.

They then turn direction and start to climb higher and higher, until they are directly above the tree they are aiming for.

“Get ready kid, were flying in fast and hard!” Larry shouts out.

Then all of a sudden, all three dart down towards the tree, flying fast, in order to avoid the cats from pouncing.

They fly through the branches down to a tree and once Larry and Harry see that everything is calm and quite, they land on a branch.

“Keep your voice down kid, we don't want any unwelomed visitors of the Felis Silvestris Catus kind” Larry wispers.

“Felis wetus whatus?” Fibh whispers back.

“He means cats” Harry replies.

“Oh, right, cats, I get it” Fibh says smiling.

And as the branches clear, there for the first time Fibh sees the Wise Owl, proud, knowledgeable and astute, perched upon a neighbouring tree.

They quickly hurry over to where the Wise Owl is stood.

Larry begins “Oh, Wise and Powerful, er Strong and Learned, er hey Old Owl, can you help this kid?”.

“I've gotta give it to you, your on a diet, that's true, but we'll see if it last longer than the last one” Larry said out loud.

“Last one?” Fibh asked.

“You see kid, Harry's last diet started and ended at the same time” Larry explained. “We were sat on a rocky mountain face, when Harry decided that he'd had enough of being chased by those nasty cats, as they always went for the juicy big birds. Anyhow, so I'm there supportive of my brethren when a seagull drops a beaut of a fish outta its mouth and lands at our feet, well you can imagine what happened next? Yes kid you guessed it,

Harry went at it like there was no tomorrow”Larry chuckled..

“I was hungry!” Harry replied.

“Hey.... Guys.... The Wise Owl? … Park?” Fibh reminded them.

“Oh yes, sorry kid, we gotten a bit carried away there, Well we had a good fly around and asked a few birds in the know, and I'm pleased to say we have all the intel we need to get you in an out saftely”. Larry says, while giving an army style salute.

“That's great, can we go now?” Fibh asks.

“Not too fast kid, lets wait til sunrise, then we'll have a far better chance”. Larrys replies confidently.

Dawn arrives, Harry, Larry & Fibh are postioned on top of a hotel roof overlooking Central Park.

“Now be careful kid, these cats are not to be messed with,

arry and Larry, had been gone for hours. Fibh was becoming restless. “I need to get a move on, I need to see the Wise Owl” he kept saying to himself. “Move over kid”,

Harry shouted as he came into land.

“Whoa... just missed ya!” Harry said, as he crashed lands, just missing little Fibh.

“You're lucky kid, he could of squashed you to a pulp!” Larry laughs while landing too.

“Hey, watch it. I'm on a diet!” Harry shouts.

“Oh the one you started a few minutes ago?” said Larry laughing.

“At least I'm on one” Harry replied.
