Dorothy came to her guardians and told them about her new friend before she was going to talk about what Miss Gulch said about Toto.
"Why are they taking the baby chicks out?" Robyn asked.
"It must be time." Dorothy sounded knowing.
"Time?" Mo asked.
"You all must be from the city." Dorothy said as they seemed confused of farm living.
"Do you have an incubator?" Patch asked.
"Dorothy, who are your friends?" Em asked. "I don't believe I've seen them around here before."
Dorothy soon introduced the others. Em and Henry nodded to them and then introduced themselves as 'Emma and Henry Gale'.
"Nice to meet you both." Atticus said.
"You look mighty strong," Henry smiled to Atticus. "I'm sure you'll fit right in with the boys."
"I'm sure too, sir." Atticus smiled back.
Henry put his arm around Atticus. "Nice to meet ya, Atticus, I've always wanted my own boy like you, but Em and I never had children except for little Dorothy here."
Jerry's ancestor started to calculate of how many baby chicks the farm still had.
"Wow, that is one smart mouse you got, sir." Atticus smiled.
"Yeah," Henry chuckled as he locked up the chicks which made Dorothy unhappy for them to be sent away like this. "Just wish he was around in my school days."
Jerry's ancestor ripped out the paper and handed it to Henry to calculate how many chicks.
"Thanks, Jer." Henry smiled.
The mouse nodded and gave an A-OK salute with his paw. One chick however found a way out and was wnadering by past Tom's ancestor as he was sound asleep.
"That can't end well." Jerry said.
"Nope." Patch agreed with him.
The chick then started to peep which woke up Tom's ancestor.
"Patch, would you mind making sure he doesn't eat any chicks?" Mo asked.
"I've done it for as long as I've known Tom and Jerry from our time." Patch nodded firmly before going off to keep the chick safe from Tom's ancestor and possibly even the Tom he knew.
"I see where you get your smarts from." Peep smirked to Jerry after seeing how intelligent the mouse's ancestor seemed.
Jerry's ancestor smirked as he was going to watch Tom's ancestor about to be scared. Tom's ancestor grinned darkly and snuck up right behind the unsuspecting chick. Patch soon snuck up behind Tom's ancestor and then did his specialty which was every dog's specialty which was barking. Tom's ancestor mewed loudly and hopped up in alarm.
"You okay, little guy?" Patch smiled to the chick.
The chick nodded with a smile as Patch brought it back to the rest of its siblings. The other chicks smiled.
"There you go, little guy." Patch said as he brought the chick back to its brothers and sisters.
"Thank you." The chick chirped.
Patch smiled and gently patted the chick on the head before chuckling about Tom's ancestor. "Looks like this Tom is as unlucky as that time we ended up on those pirate ships."
"Don't remind me." Tom groaned.
Dorothy seemed to have trouble herself. Tom and Jerry's ancestors saw this and they rushed to help Dorothy before she would fall against the pigs' pen and hurt herself. One pig snorted angrily to her before Jerry's ancestor hit him firmly with a corn cob.
"Hey, back off, you worthless pieces of bacon!" Patch barked at the pigs as they surrounded Dorothy.
"Dorothy!" one of the farmhands rushed over to help Dorothy.
"Get me out of here!" Dorothy yelped as the farmhands pulled her out to safety.
Patch continued to bark at the pigs so they could separate long enough for him and Jerry's ancestor to try and find Tom's ancestor. The cat seemed to be underneath the muddy ground. Unlike the Tom and Jerry everybody knew now, it seemed to be like the old days when the cat and mouse didn't really talk. Patch soon got Tom's ancestor out of the mud. Jerry's ancestor smiled to that.
"Are you all right, Dorothy?" one farmhand asked the young girl.
"Yeah, thanks to Tom, Jerry, and Patch." Dorothy smiled.
The farmhands chuckled and smiled to her fondly.
"What's all this jabbering when there's work to be done?" Em looked firm as she carried a plate of treats. "Thank you, boys, help yourselves."
Patch and Tom and Jerry's ancestors then helped themselves to the treats.
"Oh, Auntie Em, you know what Miss Gulch said she was gonna do to Toto?" Dorothy pouted to her aunt.
"Let me guess, judging by how cruel this woman sounds, she said she was going to do something terrible, right?" Atticus guessed.
"No doubt..." Cherry sighed as she knew all about that. "Too bad Aunt Em won't listen."
"Oh, Dorothy, you always find yourself in a fret over nothing," Em sighed to her niece. "There's work to be done, and you better find a place where you won't get into any trouble."
"Yes, ma'am..." Dorothy sighed. "Come on, Toto."
"But, ma'am, Miss Gulch sound like she's a cruel evil woman," Robyn said. "And I know evil people; my guardian that watched over me while my father was away on an expedition was mean and she cared about nothing, but money."
"I'm sorry, I'm sure your life story is interesting, but we're far too busy over here to stop now." Em replied, sounding rather rushed.
"Well, with us to help you and your family around here, it won't be that busy anymore." Mo said.
Em then just walked away.
"I told you she wouldn't listen." Cherry said to her friends, knowing how Dorothy's aunt could be.
Em then remembered something as she came back to the group and animals.
Robyn sighed softly before smiling to her Tom and Jerry. "You guys did great too, not a single fight."
"They're growing up." Peep shrugged with a small smile.
"Before I forget, I need you all to do something, that includes you two." Em said, referring to the group animals and Tom and Jerry's ancestors.
The others then looked curiously up to the woman.
"I need you to watch over Dorothy and Toto too." Em said.
"Dorothy seems older than me, ma'am." Robyn spoke up.
"I know, that's why I'm asking your older friends and animal friends along with Tom and Jerry to watch over her and Toto." Em said.
"Okay, ma'am." Robyn replied.
Dorothy and Toto seemed to wander off as the girl was alone with her thoughts.
"Somewhere over the rainbow~" Cherry sang along with Dorothy.
'She even knows the song.' Robyn thought to herself.
Cherry and Dorothy sang the most famous song in the whole movie together. Cherry surprised her friends with her singing voice as she always refused to sing in front of them.
"Sure, now she wants to sing." Patch said.
"Shh..." Atticus shushed his puppy.
Tom and his ancestor saw two blue birds on their heads and saw them as their snacks. Jerry and his ancestor of course did not approve of this and neither did Peep. They soon shooed away the remaining blue birds before hitting the two cats on the back of the heads to make them let the two blue birds they ate out. Toto and Patch both smiled to Dorothy and Cherry's singing. As the song ended, Dorothy smiled to Toto and nuzzled against him.
The moment was soon ruined as Miss Gulch was coming on her bicycle and looked rather angered and grouchy as she was on her way to the Gale household.
"Uh-oh, she's here." Mo said.
"Mr. Gale," Miss Gulch firmly walked up to Henry. "I want to see you and your wife right away about Dorothy!"
The animals decided to overhear this as Cherry told her human friends why Miss Gulch was here.
"That dog is a menace!" Miss Gulch complained about Toto. "I'm taking him to the sheriff to make sure that dog is sorted!"
"What do you mean 'sorted'?" Robyn asked.
"Children should be seen and not heard," Miss Gulch firmly looked to Robyn. "I want him gone!"
"But Dorothy's so attached to him." Henry frowned for his niece.
"And besides, whatever Toto did to you, you deserved it, you ugly, old, hag!" Cherry glared.
The others gaped as Cherry did that.
"I've always wanted to say that to her." Cherry replied as her fists shook slightly.
"And I'm glad you did." Atticus said.
"Why don't you mind your own business?!" Miss Gulch stood up and glared right to Cherry for her outburst.
"No, no, I won't let you take him!" Dorothy held Toto close in her arms. "You wicked old witch!"
"You can't go against the sheriff, Dorothy," Em frowned. "Put him in the basket, Henry."
"No, Auntie Em and Uncle Henry!" Dorothy sounded like she was going to cry. "Don't let her take Toto!"
Patch soon rushed inside and bit Miss Gulch on the leg. Miss Gulch yelled out while Cherry seemed to smirk at that. Patch growled while biting hard.
"Patch, let her go." Cherry said while trying not to laugh.
"Perhaps this dog should be locked up as well..." Miss Gulch said shakily from the bite but still had a sour glare to the puppy.
"No one is taking anybody's dogs." Atticus glared at Miss Gulch which sent a chill down her spine.
Patch still growled as he kept a hold on Miss Gulch's leg.
"Patch, release." Atticus ordered.
Patch then let go and spat slightly in disgust. "Blech! Shoe polish!"
"Now, Miss Gulch, leave this place and don't take anything with you, except your bicycle." Atticus said with a death glare.
Miss Gulch seemed terrified of Atticus and then went off instantly.
"Oh, Toto, that was a close one!" Dorothy cooed as she held her dog close.
"But what about the-" Em was about to ask before she saw Atticus had gotten the approval from the Sheriff which was the only copy and saw the strong boy tear it up.
"Mercy!" Henry gasped.
"That approval was for Toto being taken away; I've torn it to shreds, now there's nothing Miss Gulch can do to take Toto away." Atticus said.
"You don't know how badly I've wanted that." Cherry said quietly to him.
"I know how badly you've wanted to do that." Atticus whispered.
Cherry then smirked in satisfaction.
"So, need any help on the farm?" Atticus asked Em and Henry.
"We better stay in, I've heard reports of a twister coming in over here." Henry sounded cautious.
"I agree." Em said.
"A twister?" Robyn asked worriedly.
"It's like a tornado." Patch said.
"I'm still worried!" Robyn replied.
Em went outside to make sure everyone was inside, but she couldn't find her niece. "Dorothy!"
"Where'd she go?" Mo asked.
"She must be in her room." Cherry suggested.
"You're probably right, dear." Em said.
'Of course I am.' Cherry thought to herself.
"Oh, Annie, I'm so sorry for this..." Henry mumbled to himself as he went with his wife and the others for shelter from the incoming tornado.
Mo soon went to Dorothy's room to check on her.
