Wisley
Oh, I'm sorry... [sfx: saw~whet owl; and yawning] I must
have dozed off. [sfx: pause & confusion] Whew... ...what a dream... yeah...
I remember now... [yawn, stretch] ...such a beautiful dream.
Serenity
Wisley... Wisley...
Wisley
What was that?
Serenity
Not a what, Wisely, but a who. You were dreaming, Wisely.
You were dreaming of StarKidae StarGatae. ...but you're wide awake
now.
Wisely
Wide awake? StarWhooo... StarWuuut...? [yawn, stretch]
Oh... I don't remember now. What was it?
Serenity
What is it, more precisely. And if it were a what, Wisely,
it would be a way of life. [pause] But it's not a what, Wisely, it's a
where.
Wisely
A where? Well.... ...then... ...where is.... ...where is
[yawn, stretch, forgetting] what?
Serenity
Deep in the heart of every forest, there's a place... ...a
very special place... ...called StarKidae StarGatae. If you look... ...if you
look for yourself you'll find it there... Deep... deep in the
heart...
Wisely

Serenity

Wisely
And forget about StarKidae StarGatae... ...where are

Serenity
I am right here, Wisely. Be at peace, little bird,
everything is all right now.
Wiesly
Hey... ...how do you know my name?
Serenity

Wisely
...Uhhhh... right. I'm not asleep or awake... I'm outta

Serenity
Be at pease. [sfx denotes powerful peace of
Serenity]
Wisely [continues]
Uh... uh... well.... [fluffs feathers ~ searches] ...Then

Serenity
I have come to stay with The StarKidzae. They have called
upon my Power for they need my help.
Wisely
The StarKidzaee... ...The StarKidzae... uh... uh... [sfx:
saw~whet] Whoooooo are the StarKidzae?
Serenity
Ahhh. The StarKidzae are sparklae folk who live
peacefully... deep in the heart of every forest.
Wisely
In the forest. I live in the forest. I've never heard of
any... StarKidzae. C'mon. What's really going on here?
Serenity
...Deep, Wisely... ...wae, wae deep... in the
heart...
Wisely
But... [sfx: saw~whet] Whooooooo.. why... [searches]
...what do these StarKidzae do?
Serenity
Mmmm.... they Danse... ...for one...
Wisely
They Danse?
Serenity
They do! And Sing... from dawn to dusk. They make
everything they do a celebration of life.
Wisely
[contemplating] A celebration of life... ...but how do
they do that?
Serenity
Mmmm.... ...they... ..discover, Wisely. And while they
Sing and Danse their celebration of life, they share themselves, helping the
plants and animals... ...all of nature... survive.
Wisely
S u r v i v e ?
Serenity
Yes. Survive. To remain alive... ...to have everything
they need to live... and to flourish.
Wisely
F l o u r i s h?
Serenity
Yes. Flourish. To grow... ...abundantly... to be the best
they can be... ...in balance... harmony... ...and oneness... ...of
course...
Wisely
Yeah... sure... ...of course. I'd like to meet these...
StarKidzae. Where do they live?
Serenity
They live... on the other side of The
Gatae.
Wisely
Can we go there now?
Serenity
[as if she's not sure] Mmmm... you must have
permission.
Wisely
Permission? From whoooooooo?
Serenity
From yourself. You must let yourself go
there.
Wisely
Sounds easy enough... ...but, how do I do
that?
Serenity
Just choose, Wisely. You simply need to make your own
choice.
Wisely
All right, then. I choose. I choose to go to StarKidae
StarGatae with you right now and meet the StarKidzae.
Serenity
Then choose, Wisely, you do. Some of your friends are
there already.
Wisely
My friends are there... ...some of my
friends?
[sfx: train~whistle~song: ALL ABOARD, far distance,
a tempo]
Serenity
Yes. And they all... hhhhsssssssshhhhhhhhhh... listen.
Here comes The Discovery Express now. This is Choosy's last stop before going on
to StarKidae StarGatae.
Choosy
Chooooooooossssssyyyy...
Conductor Rich Brown

Wisely
But wait! I don't have a ticket!
Serenity
Your ticket... ...is knowing who you are. Just tell
Conductor Rich Brown when you get on board.
