REIREI: The sun rose over the horizon an it shun through the window of Rosalina's room

Flashback effect

REIREI: Today was a big day for me an Rosalina cuz today we we're goin on our first hunt but we had to be careful cuz today was also the first day of Jackel Hunting Season an the good news is mom an dad were teachin us to hunt not Johnny. Johnny decided he was gon stay the night there for the entire week cuz he "already knows how to hunt"

JOHNNY: Okay I'm off to Elena's house so I won't be back for a week.

ANTHONY: Okay have fun.

JOHNNY: Oh I will.

BARBRA: Be careful out there it's Jackel Huntin Season an I don't wanna lose a family member.

JOHNNY: Don't worry mom I'll be careful.

BARBRA: Okay.

He walks ouda the den an shuts the door behind him

ANTHONY: Ready to teach Reirei an Rosalina to hunt dear.

BARBRA: Yeah, this gon be fun but we also need to be careful cuz hunters are gon be huntin us down.

ANTHONY: Yeah I know.

Music starts

BARBRA: Why, why does season even exist. It's just completely wrong to kill innocent animals that did nothin to you. Life would be so much easier if this season was gone but I can't control how things work so the best we could do is stay in hidin til this all blows over in a month or two.

ANTHONY: Listen, life ain't no fun an games it's a road that leads to a 70-foot drop an it's gonna have a buncha bumps, brusies, twists an turns so treasure every moment that we have cuz life is too short to take a stand an you can't do anythin bout it.

BARBRA: Yeah you may be right but everytime this time comes around the Jackel population goes down by a hundred each year if this keeps up soon all of us will go-oh-oh extinct.

ANTHONY: I know it may not be easy but if you keep pushin through the fire you'll find that in the end it doesn even matter. Keep your chin up dear you're gonna be fine. Keep your chin up dear it'll be okay. Keep your chin up dear don't let the negativity of life get in the way. I know it may not be easy but if you keep pushin through the fire you'll find that in the end it doesn even matter. Doesn even matter.

ANTHONY AN BARBRA: Keep your chin up dear you're gonna be fine. Keep your chin up dear it'll be okay. Keep your chin up dear don't let the negativity of life get in the way. I know it may not be easy but if you keep pushin through the fire you'll find that in the end it doesn even matter. Doesn even matter.

Song ends

BARBRA: You're right dear I shouldn let the negative side of life get the best of me now come on let's go get the kids.

ROSALINA: Uh, we're already here.

BARBRA: Aaahh! Oh you scared me. How long have you been standin there?

ROSALINA: Long enough ain't that right Reirei. Reirei?

She looks over at Reirei who's hummin an dancin along to the song that Barbra an Anthony just sang.

REIREI: Ever since Mom an Dad sang that song it's been stuck in my head forever an I use it to cheer me up when I'm feelin down an you can use it too.
