An Amorous Bucky and a Surprised Monarch


Yzma grabbed Idalia with one of her knarled old hands and was about to shove her in a cage when Idalia bit her.

"AHHHHHGGGG!" Yzma screamed, dropping her. "You little- You better not have given me rabies!"


Idalia scurried up the stairs and out of Yzma's lab with a quickness that was an advantage to being a squirrel.

All of a sudden, as she sprinted down the hall, she slipped on the marble floor and slammed into Kronk's sandled foot.

"Now, what have we here?" Kronk queried outloud to Bucky who was on his shoulder. He bent down and gently picked up the momentarily stunned Idalia. "Now, I'd say this is one of your kind Bucky, or my name isn't Gibralter, and it isn't. Least, I don't think it is." Kronk was thought for a moment then decided as Bucky scurried off his shoulder and down his arm, "Nope, my name is Kronk. Make no mistake about that! Kronk . . whatever my last name is."

Bucky planted himself down next to Kronk's hand and gave Idalia a look over. Then, sidling up to her, he gave her a broad wink.

"Squeak squeakum squeak squeak!" Which, roughly translated, meant: "Hey, baby."


Idalia gulped and scurried up to Kronk's shoulder. Bucky followed her. She then ran over Kronk's head to his other shoulder. Bucky followed. Soon, Idalia was running all over Kronk's form with Bucky chasing her.

"Whoa," he cried, "whoa, there, ah, kids . ." He twisted this way and that, trying to catch at least one of them.

"Hey, Kronky my friend!"

Emperor Kuzco had come strolling down the hall just then, in time to witness the melee. "Having a little trouble early today, aren't we?"

"Uh . . I guess you could say that," replied Kronk still twisting about, trying grab the squirrels.

"Oh, by the way, have you seen Idalia anywhere?"

Suddenly Idalia spotted Kuzco and jumped from Kronk to Kuzco before Bucky's little arms captured her waist.

"Whoa! hey there, my furry friend. Sorry, but no touchee. Kronk, what is this, a nature show?"

"Uh, no, your majesty," he replied as Kuzco tried to pry Idalia off his arm. Her grip was about to wane, until she suddenly burst out.

"Wait, your highness! Stop."

Kuzco almost dropped her, he was so surprised.

"A talking squirrel! Kronk, are you setting up your own circus or something? You landed in a gold mine and you didn't tell me?"

"I didn't know it could talk!" Kronk said defensively. "I found it scurrying down the hall, from the direction of Yzma's old laboratory."

Kuzco looked back in the direction Kronk mentioned. He squinted in suspicion. Then looked back at Idalia.

"Were you something else a few minutes ago?"

"Yes! I was a human! I'm Idalia!"

Kuzco promptly fainted again.
