Mickey Mouse Funhouse: Silly Stories

King Ludwig's Speech!

" Oh, what a disaster! "

King Ludwig paced back and forth in the middle of his throne room, looking over his blank speech again and again and again as he tried to figure out what he could do to make it more lively. He was supposed to address his Kingdom for the upcoming " Choose a Knight " day and although he had the perfect Knight in mind, he was having the worst trouble finding the words to congratulate him. And that's where Minnie and Donald came into play! Being allowed to sit on his throne, Minnie pondered for a while of what could be said while Donald was mimicking the King and paced side by side him. The mouse soon spoke. " Well, the first thing I do when I want to write is think about who or what I'm writing about! So, who is going to be knighted? " She asked him. The King looked around for anyone who could be listening before pulling Donald with him to see Minnie and then whispering the answer for them to hear.

" Oh my stars! " Cried out Minnie in glee. " He's going to love this! " Cheered Donald. King Ludwig chuckled. " I've been watching him and he's done such a terrific job keeping my Kingdom safe from any of those mischief makers! I want him to know that I am so so so so grateful! " He explained while sighing at the end. Donald snapped his finger and then snatched the paper and quill away from King Ludwig. Minnie and The King were both extremely surprised. " Then we'll start with that! We'll list down everything we like and are grateful for about him and we'll use that as a base! " Don said proudly, holding the quill up. Minnie smiled to the King and then winked at Donald. " Why Donald! I do believe you're a genius! " She teased (but she did meant it). The two eagerly looked at the King as they waited for him to start spouting out praises. He smiled, began to pace and then opened his beak.

Outside the castle walls and walking along the streets of Majestica, Trolland the Troll greeted the many towns people with smile and a wave. For him, today had been a pretty quiet day overall! Farfus was out at sea to visit his other side of the family, The Jester Weasels had the day off and were finding themselves at Clarabelle's pie shop and everyone else found themselves enjoying the warm, summer's day! He stopped when he noticed a ball soar over him and onto the roof of a shop. It then bounced and landed right into the chimney! A group of small kids all ran up and then groaned in disbelief. " Oh great going, Joseph!, " Groaned a boy dressed in dark red, " Now we'll never get it back! " A kid in yellow scratched at his arm sadly, muttering a quiet " I'm sorry guys. " Trolland had no tolerance for people who treated people rudely so he frowned and looked at the shop.

On the edge of the room hung an iron sign of a sword and shield. The weapons shop if he wasn't mistaken. Below that sign, just a few feet away, was a barrel filled with water. He looked to the barrel, then sign, the roof and then to the ball...and a plan formed.
