The Fox Girl/Transcript

This is the transcript of the Fox Girl.

[The story starts in the forest where a vixen is walking to find food]

Vixen: Come on, prey. My babies are hungry.

[Then she heard crying]

Vixen: Huh? What was that?

[She followed the noise to an abandoned campsite where she discovers a baby girl in a basket]

Baby Girl: (crying)

Vixen: A girl cub?

[She sniffs the baby curiously]

Baby Girl: (giggles)

Vixen: What happened here?

[Vixen looks around til she saw two dead bodies in the tent]

Vixen: Oh, my. Well, it's definitely not safe for her here.

[She look at the baby girl and make a decision]

Vixen: [sighs] Guess I have no choice but to raise her as my own. It may be against the laws of nature but she's not safe here. She needs a family.

[She grab the baby girl in her mouth and carried her. At the den, the cubs are playing til they see their mother]

Red: Mom, you're back!

[The cubs run over to their mother]

Rebecca: Did you catch anything good? Something big and juicy, I bet.

[They saw the baby girl]

Rachel: What is that, Mom?

Vixen: It's a human, children. I found her at an abandoned campsite.

Racket: What happened to it's parents?

Vixen: I found them dead. She's gonna be your sister now.

[The cubs looks at the baby girl]

Baby Girl: (giggles)

Rebecca: Aww, she's so cute.

Red: She's not so bad.

[Fox walks up]

Fox: Vixen, what's going on?

Vixen: I found this baby girl in the woods at an abandoned campsite, Fox. She was alone. Scared.

[Fox looks at the baby]

Fox: Was she alone?

Vixen: Yes, Fox. She needs a family.

[Fox felt sorry for the baby girl]

Fox: Well then, we might as well look after it.

Vixen: Thank you, Fox.

Racket: So, what are you gonna call her?

Vixen: Hmm. What about... Sarah?

Red: That's a nice name.

[The foxes went into their den. That night, Vixen look at the baby girl snuggled up to her with love]

Vixen: Something tells me you'll do big things some day, Sarah.

[She went to sleep. A few days later, Vixen woke up and looks at Sarah, all grown up as a five year old and naked who is still asleep]

Vixen: Sarah, wake up.

[She nudges her]

Sarah: Hmm? Oh. Morning, mom.

Vixen: Morning, dear. Are you ready to look around your new home?

Sarah: Yes.

Vixen: Good but let me give you a bath first.

[Vixen and Sarah went out of the den and Vixen starts cleaning Sarah with her tongue]

Sarah: (giggles)

Vixen: Hold still.

Sarah: I can't! It tickles!

[After a minute, Vixen finished cleaning Sarah]

Vixen: There. Now, let's go.

[Sarah gets on her back and they set off. They walk through the forest where animals are passing each other]

Vixen: As you can see, my daughter, these are the animals that lived here with us, Squirrels, rabbits, badgers, birds, you name it. We have to respect them even when we're hunting and I will teach you how to hunt sooner or later.

Sarah: Thank you, mom.

[They came to a lake. Sarah look at her reflection and see that she looks different from Vixen]

Sarah: Huh? Why am I different compared to you? I don't have fur or claws.

Vixen: You may look different from me but we're a family and that's all that matters.

[Sarah look at her naked body and admires it]

Sarah: I actually look kind of beautiful like this.

Vixen: Of course, dear. Our bodies are always beautiful, fur or no fur. No matter what everyone will say about you, you're one of us.

[Sarah hugged Vixen]

Sarah: That's what I love about us, mom. Can I go swimming please?

Vixen: Of course. But don't stay out too long or too late. Danger can be lurking at all times.

Sarah: The Blue Foxes. I know.

[She dives into the water and swim. She enjoy this and later, she went out and shake the wet off like a fox]

Sarah: Ah, that felt good. Good thing mom teach me how to swim.

[Then the bushes rustled]

Sarah: [gasps]

[Then a blue fox appears, making Sarah step back]

Blue Fox: Well, if it isn't the furless fox.

Sarah: No! No! Stay away!

Blue Fox: I don't know why Vixen wants to have you as her cub. You've got no tail, no fur and no teeth. You'II make a fine meal for Scarface.

Sarah: If he wants me, he'll have to come and get me himself! I'm part of my family!

Blue Fox: Except that he order us to take what we can get.

[He lunges at Sarah who dodges and runs off with it in hot pursuit]

Blue Fox: (growls)

Sarah: (screams)

[Sarah runs til she trips on a root and roll down the ground with some rocks scraping her skin, leaving cuts]

Sarah: Ow! Aah.

[The blue fox catches up]

Blue Fox: Now I gotcha. You will taste good.

Sarah: (whimpers)

[But just as he is about to pounce on her, Vixen appears in front of him]

Vixen: Leave my daughter alone!

Blue Fox: Or what? She looks nothing like you.

Vixen: It doesn't matter that she doesn't look like me. What matters is that we're family! She's my cub!

[Vixen and the blue fox fight each other for a minute til Vixen manages to take him down]

Vixen: Stay away from my family, understood?!

Blue Fox: You won't be lucky forever, Vixen. Scarface will wipe you all out.

[He runs off. Vixen turns to Sarah]

Vixen: We'd better get you out of here and patch you up.

Sarah: Yes, mom.

[Vixen carries Sarah home and lick her wounds]

Vixen: I know it hurts but they'll heal after some time.

Sarah: I know. I'm sorry, mom. I didn't mean to stay out too late and got hunted by a blue fox. (sobs)

Vixen: Ssssh, sssh, ssh. It's alright. These things happen all the time. You've done nothing wrong.

Fox: Your mother's right. We're just glad that you're alright.

Sarah: Thanks, Dad.

[Vixen continue licking Sarah's wounds. Next day, she teaches Sarah and her cubs to hunt]

Vixen: Now, watch how I do it.

[She crept up to the pine cone and pounces on it]

Sarah: Nice one, mom.

Vixen: Thanks. Now you do it.

[Sarah crotch down on all fours, crept over to the pine cone and pounces but misses]

Cubs: (giggling)

Fox: It's not funny, kids.

Red: Sorry, Dad.

Sarah: Oh. How am I gonna learn to hunt if I can't catch this cone?

Vixen: You'll get the hang of it, dear.

[Rebecca limps over with a thorn on her paw]

Fox: Rebecca, what's wrong?

Rebecca: I was walking and I accidentally stepped on a thorn.

Vixen: Oh, you poor thing.

Sarah: I think I can help.

Racket: How?

Sarah: Watch.

[Sarah walk over to Rebecca and use her hand to grab the thorn and pull it out of Rebecca's paw]

Rebecca: Ow!

Sarah: Sorry, Rebecca. I got it out.

[Rebecca look at her paw and saw that Sarah was right]

Rebecca: Thanks, Sarah.

[She nuzzles her]

Sarah: (giggles)

Red: Very good there, sis.

Sarah: Thanks, Red.

Fox: Looks like your hands are very useful to us foxes after all, picking thorns from our bodies and other things.

Vixen: That's true, dear. You'II make a very fine fox indeed, Sarah.

Sarah: Thanks, mom.

[Over the next few days, Sarah learns how to hunt. She makes a small spear and use it to catch prey. She eats berries and fruit since her stomach can't stand raw meat. She climbs up trees to talk with the birds. She learns to use her ears and nose to track down prey. Finally, she runs on all fours and did it well. She came to a cliff, overlooking the valley and grins]

Sarah: (barks and howls)

[She and the cubs are playing with each other with them nipping her body with their teeth, leaving it bite marks but Sarah doesn't mind]

Racket: Ooops. Sorry, sis.

Sarah: That's OK, Racket. I'm getting used to it.

[Fox and Vixen watches with pride with Badger]

Badger: Sarah's getting good at hunting, doesn't she?

Vixen: Yes, she does, Badger.

Fox: We have taught her very well indeed.

Badger: Yes, I'm glad for that but just to say, do you think it's time Sarah knows the truth about why she's different?

Vixen: I think we'll wait until she's old enough.

Fox: Yes. We'II wait for another while.

Badger: Well, if you say so.

[Later, Vixen bring back two rabbits]

Vixen: Dinner is served.

Red: Alright, rabbits. Yum.

Sarah: I might as well give rabbit a try. (sighs)

[She picks up a rabbit and bite a piece off into her mouth and swallows]

Sarah: Well, it's raw but it's very good.

Vixen: Very good, Sarah but will your belly adjust to it?

Sarah: Over time. Don't worry, Mom.

[Then a car horn honked in the distance]

Sarah: What is that?

Fox: Humans. Get inside.

[Vixen and the cubs went inside but Sarah, curious, set off unnoticed. She walk on all fours through the woods, sniffing]

Sarah: (sniffs)

[Then she heard voices and hide in the bushes]

Woman: What a lovely day for a walk in the woods.

Man: You can say that again, love.

[A man and a woman appears, followed by a boy, to Sarah's surprise]

Tony: This place is lovely out. I wonder what we'II find here.

Henry: Beats me, son. At least we're spending time together as a family.

Rose: That's right, love.

[Sarah kept quiet as she watch the family with curiously. Later, Tony went off on his own]

Tony: I won't be too long, mom and dad!

Henry: OK, son.

Rose: Be careful.

Tony: I will.

[Tony headed off into the woods with Sarah following unnoticed. She watches him look around, amazed by it all]

Sarah: (to herself) Maybe this is why I look different from my family. He looks like me but male.

[Tony came to a clearing and settle down to rest]

Tony: Ah. This is perfect for a rest.

[But as he settle down, he heard a growl and a wolf stalks towards him]

Wolf: (growls)

Tony: Aaah! Get away from me!

[Sarah jumps out in front of Tony and snarls at the wolf]

Sarah: (snarls)

Wolf: (snarls)

[Sarah raise her spear and points it at the wolf. It backs down and run off. Tony was stunned by all this. Sarah turns walk over to him on all fours, sniffing]

Sarah: (sniffing)

Tony: Uh, why are you sniffing me, little girl?

[Sarah touches Tony's clothes, his hair and put her hand to his, seeing that they're the same]

Tony: What's your name?

[Sarah looks at Tony, not understanding human language]

Tony: You can't understand. I'm Tony. Me, Tony.

Sarah: Me, Sarah.

Tony: Sarah? That's a nice name. Why are you naked?

[Sarah look confused]

Tony: Your body's not covered.

Sarah: Oh, my mother raised me like this. I look beautiful like this.

Tony: Oh, I see. It's just people could see you like this and get shocked.

Sarah: That's silly. Mom told me that our bodies are something to be proud of, even mine.

Tony: OK. Who's your mom?

Sarah: She's a Vixen. A female fox.

Tony: You're raised by foxes?

Sarah: Yes. They're my family. I can show you them if you like.

Tony: I suppose so. Tomorrow though. I have to get back before my parents start wondering what kept me.

Sarah: Okay. See you then. I have to get home anyway too or Scarface's blue foxes will hunt me again.

Tony: Scarface?

Sarah: I'II explain later. Bye.

[She runs off on all fours. Tony set off back the way he came. He arrived back with his parents]

Rose: There you are.

Henry: We were starting to wonder what kept you.

Tony: I was saved by a girl in the woods from a wolf.

Rose: A girl in the woods?

Henry: How does she save you from the wolf?

Tony: She snarled and pointed a spear at it. Her name is Sarah.

Rose and Henry: Sarah?

[Back at the den, Sarah told her family about Tony]

Rebecca: But Dad says humans are dangerous.

Sarah: Not Tony. He's actually friendly to me.

Red: But they have guns and hunt us for food.

Fox: Yes, but this one's different. Sarah did the right thing.

Racket: What? What do you mean?

Fox: Humans can't be killed by animals here in the forest. If Sarah's telling the truth, then we may give this Tony a chance.

Sarah: Thanks, Dad.

[She hugs him]

Sarah: But why didn't you all told me that there are humans like me?

Vixen: [sighs] Sarah, there's something I should've told you a long time ago. I wanted to wait until you were old enough but seems now is better than later.

Sarah: What is it?

Vixen: Come. There's something I should have showed you long ago.

[Sarah follows Vixen who lead her to the abandoned camp site]

Vixen: When you were just a baby, I found you here.

[Sarah look around the campsite til she came across a picture of her as a baby with her parents, Bronwyn and Charlie Jones. She picks it up and look at it]

Sarah: Are these...?

Vixen: Yes, your real parents. They were dead when I found them. Now you know. Sarah, I will support you whatever you choose.

[She walks off to give Sarah some alone time. Later, Vixen sits in the wood when Sarah comes over]

Sarah: I've made my decision.

Vixen: What is it?

Sarah: I've decided that I want to go with Tony and learn about his world.

[Vixen tears up]

Vixen: I understand. Never forget this. No matter where you go, you will always be my cub.

Sarah: I won't. I promise. You will always be my mother.

[They hugged sadly. Unknown to them, a blue vixen named Lady Blue watches this]

Lady Blue: (chuckles) This will make excellent news for my mate.

[She stalks off. Later, the foxes gather to see Sarah off]

Red: Do you really have to go, Sarah? You're our sister.

Sarah: I know but I need to see what the world of humans is like.

Rebecca; (sobs) We're gonna miss you.

Sarah: Don't worry, I'll always come back.

Badger: As you wish, my dear. It's good to have you around us for years.

Fox: Yes. It's been great, having you as part of our family.

Sarah: I know, Dad. Well, guess I'd better be off. Bye.

[She hugged her fox family and walks off. Vixen watches her human cub go with tears in her eyes. Soon, Sarah came to Tony's campsite where he's packing things up with his parents]

Tony: I really wish we could spend more time here.

Henry: I know, son but we have to get back home.

Sarah: Hey, Tony.

Tony: Hey, Sarah! Mom! Dad! This is Sarah! The girl who saved me!

Rose: Oh, my goodness! She's naked!

Henry: That is unexcepted.

Sarah: Sorry, my mother, a vixen raised me like this.

Rose: You survived in that forest by foxes. What happened to your real parents?

Sarah: My adoptive mother told me they were dead when she found me as a baby. I don't mind being bare myself. I'm beautiful this way.

Henry: Well, then, why are you here?

Sarah: Well, I came here because I've decided to go with Tony and you two to see what the human life is like.

Tony: That's a good idea, Sarah. But we'll need to get you some clothes when we get home.

Rose: Yes, and clean up those bite marks on you.

Sarah: Thanks. My brothers and sisters often did it to me but it's playful.

Henry: I see. Just so you know, Sarah, you can't go around naked in human places. People could see you.

Sarah: Right. I'll keep that in mind.

Scarface: You're not going anywhere!

[Everyone turns to see Scarface prowling out of the woods]

Tony: Is that Scarface?

Sarah: Yes, Tony. That must be him.

Rose: And it talks too.

Scarface: So you're leaving the woods to live with your own kind, huh? Quite fitting since you're not a fox at all. Just a girl cub.

Sarah: So what? I'm still their cub whether I'm human or not!

Scarface: Ha. For years, I'm trying to get rid of Fox and his family so that these woods will be mine and we're not going to let you and these three interfere.

Lady Blue: Yes, you're nothing but a common riff-raff. Furless and no tail to match.

Henry: We'll see about that!

[Then blues foxes prowls out surrounding Sarah, Tony and their parents]

Rose: Oh, no! We're doomed!

Scarface: Trap them in that tent.

[The blue foxes charges at Sarah, Tony and his parents and forced them into their last tent and lock it up]

Tony: Aah! We're trapped.

Scarface: We've got them alright. Now, we're off to flesh out those red foxes and kill them all and then we'II have human for desert.

Lady Blue: I'm looking to it, my love.

[The blue foxes prowl away, unaware that a bird saw this and flew off to tell the other animals. In the tent]

Henry: Okay. I think they're gone. But we have to save the red foxes!

Sarah: How? I can't seem to get this opened. I shouldn't left my family to let Scarface kill them. (sobs)

Tony: Hey, it's alright. Remember, you have your spear don't you? Maybe you can use it to cut through the fabric and make an exit.

[Sarah look down to see her spear]

Sarah: Good idea, Tony.

Rose: Just hurry up already!

[Sarah use her spear to rip the fabric then claws scrap it as well, making a hole large enough. Sarah look to see Badger, Owl, Bird, Rabbits and Squirrels standing outside]

Sarah: Guys! You're all here!

Badger: Of course we're here, Sarah. You're one of us.

Owl: Bird told us everything and we've came to help.

Weasel: We'II help you and your friends fight those blue foxes.

Squirrel: Here, here.

[Sarah smiled then looks determined to the woods]

Sarah: Let's go save my family.

Tony: We're with you to the end.

[They run off into the forest. At the den, Vixen sits alone, sad about Sarah gone from her as Fox watch from a distance]

Vixen: I'm sorry, Sarah. I wish I'd told you sooner. My little girl cub.

Fox: I know, Vixen. I miss her too. At least she's happy with her kind now.

[Then he heard howling and look to see Scarface and the blue foxes prowling from the woods]

Fox: Scarface!

Vixen: Cubs, get into the den!

[The cubs obey and hurry into the den. The blue foxes surrounded Fox and Vixen]

Scarface: Well, Fox, after a very long time, I will finally dispose of you and your family so that every animal will be ours for the kill.

Fox: We'll see about that!

Vixen: You won't get away with this!

Lady Blue: Oh, yeah, just watch us.

[Then just as they're about to pounce, they heard a howl and saw Sarah running towards them on all fours with the animals, Tony and his parents behind her. She kicks the blue foxes back then turns to her parents]

Vixen: Sarah! You came back!

Sarah: No, Mom. I came home.

Fox: I think that's what your mother meant.

[They smiled then turned to fight the blue foxes. Tony, his parents and the animals fought against the blue foxes with their might. Scarface prowls towards Fox]

Scarface: Grrr! It's time to put an end to this.

Sarah: Oh, no you don't!

[She pounces on Scarface and hold on. They wrestle with Scarface scrapping Sarah's bare body til they reach a ledge. Sarah stabs Scarface in the chest with her spear but he knock her off his back and she landed on the ground knocked out]

Cubs: (gasps)

Scarface: (groans) The blue foxes will live on. I'II be avenged.

[He collapses]

Lady Blue: My love. (sobs) You will pay for this one day.

[She retreated]

Tony: Yes, we did it!

Animals: Hooray!

Rachel: But what about Sarah?

[They look to see Sarah laying down on the ground on her front, unconscious]

Vixen: Sarah!

[She runs to Sarah and nudges her but to no avail]

Vixen: Oh, no. My cub. My Sarah. (sobs)

[Everyone looks sadly at Sarah as Vixen nuzzles against her sadly. Then Sarah's head moved]

Everyone: Huh?

Sarah: (groans) Mom?

Vixen: Oh, Sarah! Oh, thank goodness you're okay!

[She nuzzles against her]

Fox: Well done, my daughter. You got rid of Scarface for good. You're a real fox.

Red: Yeah. Way to go, sis.

Vixen: I knew you would do big things some day. You're really are part of this family. I'm proud to have you as my daughter.

Sarah: Thanks, Mom.

[She hugged Vixen. Tony, Rose and Henry watch with tearful pride. The animals smiled at the foxes. The next day, everyone gathered at the edge of the wood]

Tony: Are you sure you wanna stay, Sarah?

Sarah: Yes, Tony. This is my home and I need to be with my family.

Rose: And you don't want any clothing on to keep you warm?

Sarah: No. I'm happy being bare.

Tony: I understand. I'm getting used to seeing you naked now.

Henry: We'll be sure to come back and visit.

[Sarah and Tony hugged then she step back and waved]

Sarah: Bye.

Tony: Goodbye, Sarah.

[Tony and his parents left. Sarah turns back to her family]

Vixen: I'm glad you decided to stay here, Sarah. My life wouldn't be the same without you.

Sarah: Nor would mine without you, Mom. This is where I belong.

[She hugged Vixen as the foxes howls in delight. Sarah smiles and joins in. She runs through the woods with her family by her side, happy to be home til she came to a cliff and smiles over the valley]

Sarah: (barks then howls)

[The End]
