"Have we lost them yet, Owl?" Christopher Robin cried to his feathery friend, as he, Selena and Howard had finished drying themselves and putting their scout uniforms back on.

Owl, who was standing on top of the roof of the speedboat, was looking out for any incoming enemies. He panicked. "They're still after us!"

Everyone looked behind to see that he wasn't wrong. The heffalumps and woozels had been chasing them for hours and hours and still had no intention of getting bored and letting them escape.

"Don't those guys ever take a break?" Tigger asked.

"Their speedboats should have run out of fuel by now," Pigeon said.

"Remember, Pigeon," Goat told his apprentice. "Don't let worries or fears get the better of you while you're on a mission. Stay focused."

Kanga and Boomer hopped over to Roo, who was given the job to watch the speedboat's engine so Pigeon could focus on steering the boat away from the enemies chasing them.

"How much fuel have we got, Roo dear?" Kanga asked.

"It looks like we're nearly out," Roo said.

Selena turned to the speedboat with the rebel heffalumps and woozels. "How are you guys doing?"

"We're fine," called one rebel woozel, "but we haven't got much fuel left."

"Is there any way we can get the boat moving in case the fuel runs out?" Howard asked.

"Aren't there any sails?" Rabbit asked.

Everyone looked for one, but they couldn't find one. Besides they were on a speedboat, not a sail boat.

"Are there any oars?" Owl asked.

"Or what?" Piglet asked.

"I meant boat oars," Owl explained. "You know, those giant sticks that you hold in the water to move the boat in the direction you want it to go in."

There wasn't even any spare wood for them to use as oar.

"I could dive in and push the boat," Tigger suggested.

"I'm not sure that's a good idea, Tigger," Christopher Robin told him.

"Why? I'm very strong."

"But there's still a shark in the sea."

"And I thought you always said that tiggers don't like water, let alone swim," Piglet said.

That got Tigger. "Oh, yeah. I forgot about that."

Then both speedboats stopped completely. Neither of them could budge an inch.

Goat turned to the rebel heffalumps and woozels. "Come aboard this speedboat for both the sake of yours and ours."

As they dived in and swam to board their speedboat, everyone tried to think of something to get their speedboat moving.

"Is there any spare emergency fuel on this boat?" Selena asked. "Like in fuel cans?

As usual, everyone found nothing of the sort. And the heffalumps and woozels were gaining on them. And they had no defences to defend themselves with.

"What are we going to do?" Pooh asked.

"Only one thing to do," Eeyore said. "Panic."

So everyone did except Christopher Robin, Selena, Howard, Goat and Pigeon. They tried to calm everyone down, but they were struggling to do so. And the heffalumps and woozels blocking them with their own speedboats certainly weren't helping.

Everyone finally went silent, though still worried, when the Admiral Heffalump and the Admiral Woozel jumped onto their speedboat and drew their swords out.

The Admiral Woozel chuckled. "It's been a fun ride with you lot trying to escape us and us chasing you, but playtime is over and now it's dinnertime."

Everyone looked hopeful.

"You guys are the dinner for Flubber," the Admiral Heffalump chuckled.

"How can you give us to him when he's not there at all?" Roo asked.

"I don't think there is a real shark," Goat said. "They made him up so they can drown us and strike fear into our hearts."

"Wrong, Goat," said the Admiral Heffalump. "The shark is real and he will come whenever he pleases."

Eeyore looked ahead. "Like how he's behind you?"

The Admiral Woozel chuckled sarcastically. "Nice try, but you can't fool us that easily." He and the Admiral Heffalump were so confident that there was no shark behind them that neither of them even bothered to turn around to check.

Then they heard screaming behind them. Only then did they finally turn around. They saw their army's speedboats around them getting torn to pieces and their soldiers diving into the sea to swim for their lives.

Soon there was only one speedboat left – the one Pooh and his friends were standing on. The Admiral Heffalump and Admiral Woozel screamed, dropped their swords, dived into the sea and swam for their lives. Pooh and his friends wondered whether they should dive in or not.

"Everyone, stay on the boat," Christopher Robin ordered. "Swimming in the sea might be more dangerous."

Then they saw bubbles emerging onto the surface. Then popped out a big white shark and his face landed on the boat.

"So the shark is real after all," Tigger said.

"Everyone, back away from the shark but remain on the boat," Christopher Robin ordered again.

Pooh and his friends tried to back away as much as they could and they did, but only just.

"Hello, guys," the shark greeted friendly.

Everyone was confused.

"A-A-A-r-r-e-e y-y-you go-go-going to e-e-a-t-t us?" Piglet asked nervously.

The shark chuckled. "No. Flubber won't eat new friends. Flubber is a vegetarian."

"Flubber?" Pooh cried. "You're Flubber? So you are real."

"Of course Flubber is real," said the friendly shark. "Can't new friends see Flubber?"

"Yes, we can," Rabbit said.

"And we're very pleased to meet you," Christopher Robin said.

"The more, the merrier," Eeyore said.

"But what about eating those boats?" Rabbit asked. "Are you a boat eater?"

"Flubber doesn't like boats," Flubber explained. "Flubber only ate those boats to scare those bullies off to save new friends."

"Well, thank you, Flubber," Christopher Robin said. "Now if you can take us back to land, you would be helping us a huge amount."

"No problem," Flubber said happily. He swan to the back of the boat and started to push the boat to the land with his nose.


Pooh and his friends reached the land in no time. Flubber took them to the Fifty Fourth Beach. It was a massive lovely beach with nice warm yellow sand and a few tropical trees.

Pooh and his friends thanked Flubber for his time and help. As a reward, they gave him the speedboat for him to play with. There was no fuel and there was no oil so it wasn't any useful for them anymore and it would be safe for Flubber to play.

"Thanks once again, new friends," Flubber said. "Flubber'll see new friends again."

Everyone waved goodbye as the shark with his speedboat left. It was sunset already and everyone was tired after rescuing Pooh and Goat, but they were all happy that they were safe and they were back together.

"All right, everyone," Christopher Robin said. "Let's make a campfire and get the tents ready for tonight."
