As Ingrid waddled into the clearing of the Grimwood Theatre, she very deliberately knocked over Anoushka Wispy's tealights. Then she quietly removed the posters about deep breathing, thoughtful pebbles and kind rainbows which Anoushka had put up everywhere. 'This Anoushka's Dance Studio nonsense has gone on long enough,' said Ingrid. 'It is time to get my theatre back. Charles! Bring me my throne.' Sir Charles scampered away, and a few seconds later returned carrying a throne of red velvet and gold. Ingrid nested herself upon it.

第十四章嘎嘎嘎嘎嘎嘎嘎嘎嘎嘎嘎嘎嘎嘎嘎嘎嘎嘎嘎嘎嘎嘎嘎嘎嘎嘎嘎!当英格丽德摇摇摆摆地走进格里姆伍德剧院的空地时,她故意打翻了阿努什卡·维斯皮的茶灯。 然后她悄悄地移走了阿努什卡贴在各处的关于深呼吸、体贴的鹅卵石和善良的彩虹的海报。 “阿努什卡舞蹈室的闹剧已经拖得够久了,”英格丽德说。 “是时候把我的剧院拿回来了。 查尔斯!把我的宝座拿来给我。查尔兹爵士蹦蹦跳跳地跑开了,几秒钟后拿着一个用红丝绒和金子做的宝座回来了。 英格丽德在上面筑巢。

Where on earth did that come from? The throne shop, I expect. 'Darling,' said Sir Charles, after a while. 'I thought we were, um… trying to help out with the crow disaster?' 'Oh, yes,' said Ingrid, dabbing more lipstick onto her beak. 'Like, er, hi there,' said Anoushka Wispy, who had just come back from a luxury ear massage. 'Soooo, I guess you want your theatre back, huh?' Ingrid nodded briskly. 'Yes, it is time for you to move on,' she quacked.

这到底是从哪里来的? 我想是王座店吧。 “亲爱的,”查尔斯爵士过了一会儿说道。 “我以为我们是,嗯……想要帮助乌鸦的灾难?”“哦,是的。”英格丽德说着,又往嘴里抹了些口红。 “就像,呃,你好,”刚刚做完豪华耳部按摩回来的阿努什卡·维斯皮(Anoushka Wispy)说。 “那么,我猜你想要回你的剧院,是吗?”英格丽德轻快地点了点头。 “是的,你该走了,”她嘎嘎地说。

Anoushka shrugged. 'Like, I have a massive world tour to go on in a few weeks, so that's fine by me,' she said. 'I'll just collect up my beanbags and crystals.' 'Oh, but that is not all,' quacked Ingrid. 'You can do this crow dance, yes?' 'The Jig of the Party Crow? Like, sure,' said Anoushka. 'Then you must go to the Magic Tower at once. The crows need you,' said Ingrid. 'You must dance with the fox. Go immediately, and leave your candles and crystals please, I rather like them.' 'Oh… um, like… sure?' said Anoushka. 'So, like… let me get this straight. You want me to do the Jig of the Party Crow with the fox? With Ted?' Ingrid nodded and quacked impatiently. 'Yes! Do you have cloth in your giant ears? That is exactly what must happen.' Anoushka reached into her guitar case and took out some crumpled sheets of paper. They were the book pages she had used to teach the Jig of the Party Crow. She smoothed them out and read them again. 'Ummm… so, like, it says here that the dance must be performed by two friends who love each other,' she said. 'You know the fox,' said Ingrid. 'Surely that will do?' Anoushka frowned. 'He seems like a nice guy but… I can't pretend that we're, like, best friends. He's always hanging out with the bunny. With Willow. Wills.' Ingrid waved her wings impatiently.

Anoushka耸耸肩。她说:“比如,几周后我有一场大型的世界巡演,所以这对我来说很好。” “我去收拾我的豆袋和水晶。“哦,还没完呢,”英格丽德嘎嘎地说。 “你会跳乌鸦舞,对吗?”“派对乌鸦的快步舞?” “不错,”阿努什卡说。 “那么你必须马上去魔法塔。 “乌鸦们需要你。”英格丽德说。 “你必须和狐狸跳舞。 马上走吧,请留下你的蜡烛和水晶,我很喜欢它们。“哦……嗯,就像……确定?”阿努什卡说。 “所以,让我把话说清楚。 你想让我和狐狸一起跳派对乌鸦舞吗? 和泰德?”英格丽点点头,不耐烦地嘎嘎叫着。 “是的!你的大耳朵里有布吗? 这正是必须要做的。”阿努什卡把手伸进吉他盒,拿出几张皱巴巴的纸。 这是她教派对乌鸦跳吉格舞时用过的书页。 她把它们弄平,又读了一遍。 她说:“嗯……所以,这里说舞蹈必须由两个相爱的朋友表演。” “你知道那只狐狸,”英格丽德说。 “那一定行吗?”Anoushka皱起了眉头。 “他看起来是个好人,但是……我不能假装我们是最好的朋友。” 他总是和兔子一起玩。 柳树。遗嘱。”英格丽德不耐烦地挥动着翅膀。

'Gah, Willow is not leaving her bed. She has gone wonky,' said Ingrid. 'What?' said Anoushka. 'Where does she live?' 'Bunnyville, obviously,' said Ingrid. 'Third tree along, purple door. You cannot miss it. Well, maybe you will miss it, what with your big droopy eyelashes.' 'Right. I'm going to go and see her. Thanks, um, I think,' said Anoushka. Sir Charles quietly waddled after her and leant in so he could whisper. 'I just wanted to say I think you've got marvellous eyelashes!' he gushed, making sure Ingrid couldn't hear him. Anoushka batted them slowly. 'Like, I know,' she giggled. 'See you later.' All the crows were standing in a circle. Nancy, Titus, Wiggy– in fact, most of Grimwood– stood behind them. All the crows apart from Sharon were wearing party hats. 'Behold the Winged Jesters!' gasped Pamela, who was thoroughly enjoying all the strangeness. 'How long before it all kicks off then?' asked Nancy. 'We've got about an hour,' said Titus, looking at his wrist. 'Why are you looking at your wrist? You're not wearing a watch,' asked Frank. Titus proudly showed off his hairy arm which had some squiggly lines scribbled all over it. 'I drew one on,' he said. 'Isn't it marvellous? The battery never runs out.'

“哎呀,威洛不肯下床。 “她走歪了。”英格丽德说。 “什么?阿努什卡说。“她住在哪里?”“当然是班尼维尔,”英格丽德说。 “沿着第三棵树,紫色的门。 你不会错过的。也许你会想念的,因为你那又大又下垂的睫毛。“正确。 我要去看看她。 “谢谢,嗯,我想。”阿努什卡说。 查尔斯爵士悄悄地摇摇摆摆地跟在她后面,凑过去低声说话。 “我只是想说,我觉得你的睫毛美极了!”他滔滔不绝地说,确保英格丽德听不见。 阿努什卡慢慢地拍打着它们。 “就像,我知道,”她咯咯笑着说。 “再见。”所有的乌鸦都站成一个圈。 南希、提图斯、维吉——实际上是格里姆伍德的大部分人——站在他们身后。 除了沙伦以外,所有的乌鸦都戴着聚会帽。 “看,有翼小丑!”帕梅拉喘着气说,她完全享受着这一切的陌生。 “那一切还要多久才能开始呢?”南希问。 “我们还有大约一个小时的时间,”提图斯看着自己的手腕说。 “你为什么看你的手腕?” “你没戴表,”弗兰克问。 提图斯自豪地展示了他毛茸茸的手臂,上面写满了弯弯曲曲的线条。 “我画了一个,”他说。“这不是很了不起吗?” 电池永远不会用完。”

Ted was pacing up and down, hoping for a miracle. 'Don't stress, kid,' said Rufus. 'Oh, Roofy,' said Ted. 'I wish I'd never worn the sunglasses or the jacket. I wish I hadn't pretended to be tough. And I wish I hadn't teased Willow about how I've never been to her house. I don't care about any of that. I just miss her so much. I need her.' Rufus patted Ted on the head. 'I know, mate,' he said. 'She'll come round.' They watched as Nancy and some squirrels killed time by playing a little treebonk. And then Rufus had the most fantastic idea. It was such a good idea, he started laughing to himself. He'd be taking a trip back to Bunnyville after all this crow nonsense was over. Anoushka bent down and rapped delicately on the door. When Flora opened it, she couldn't believe her eyes. 'OMG! Is it really you? Is it really… Anoushka Wispy?' she gasped. She poked her nose out of the tree and looked around for cameras, in case she was being pranked. 'Like, hi,' said Anoushka, tilting her head and fluttering her eyelashes. She just couldn't help it, what with being a major pop star and everything. 'Is Willow here?' Flora's mouth hung open. 'Willow?' she said. 'My Willow?' Anoushka nodded and held up a brown paper bag. 'Yeah, I've, like, got a present for her,' she said.

泰德踱来踱去,希望出现奇迹。 “别紧张,孩子。”鲁弗斯说。 “哦,迷奸药。”“我真希望我从来没有戴过那副太阳镜或那件夹克。 我希望我没有假装坚强。 我真希望我没有取笑薇罗我从来没去过她家。 这些我都不在乎。 我只是太想念她了。我需要她。”鲁弗斯拍了拍泰德的头。 “我知道,伙计,”他说。“她会回心转意的。”他们看着南希和几只松鼠玩小树桩来消磨时间。 然后鲁弗斯想出了一个绝妙的主意。 这真是个好主意,他开始暗自发笑。 等这些乌鸦的胡言乱语结束后他就会回邦尼维尔了。 阿努什卡弯下腰,轻轻地敲着门。 当弗洛拉打开它时,她简直不敢相信自己的眼睛。 “天啊!真的是你吗?真的是…Anoushka Wispy吗?她喘着气说。 她把鼻子探出树外,四处寻找摄像头,以防自己被恶作剧。 “您好,”阿努什卡歪着头,眨着睫毛说。 她就是忍不住,因为她是一个流行歌星。 “威洛在这儿吗?”弗洛拉张着嘴。 “柳?她说。“我的柳树?”阿努什卡点点头,举起一个棕色纸袋。 “是的,我给她准备了一份礼物,”她说。

'Well, you'd best come in then, hadn't you?' said Flora. 'Careful not to trip over the wellies… there are over six hundred of them.' All the bunnies gasped when they saw Anoushka slope past on her way to Willow's bedroom. She grinned when she saw the angry-looking lump curled up on the top bunk. 'Like, hey Wills,' she said, gently patting the lump. Willow flupped the blanket off her head. 'Noushki?' she said, blinking. 'What are you doing here?' 'I heard you weren't feeling so good,' said Anoushka, positioning herself awkwardly on the edge of Willow's bed. 'So I brought you these.' She chucked the small brown paper bag over to Willow, who opened it and took a great big sniff. 'Aaah, fresh Cosmic Knobblers! Oh wow, Noushki. Thank you.' And Willow smiled, even though her eyes were puffy and red from crying. 'Well, we're friends, right?' said Anoushka. 'Yeah, course,' said Willow. 'You've got a lot of friends,' said Anoushka. 'I've noticed that about you. And you have a best friend, too.' 'Yeah, I do. You!' said Willow, munching on a Cosmic Knobbler. Anoushka smiled and shook her head. 'Nope. I think you're great. But I'm talking about Ted. You two are best friends and you know it.' Willow scowled. 'We used to be,' she said.

“好吧,那你最好进来,是不是? ”弗洛拉说。 “小心别被这些雨靴绊倒了……它们有六百多只。”当看到Anoushka向Willow的卧室走去时,所有的兔子都倒吸了一口气。 当她看到那个生气的家伙蜷缩在上铺上时,她笑了。 “比如,嘿,威尔斯,”她轻轻地拍着肿块说。 威洛拂去头上的毯子。 “Noushki ?她眨着眼睛说。 “你在这儿干什么?”“我听说你不太舒服,”阿努什卡说,尴尬地在威洛的床沿上坐了下来。 “所以我给你带来了这些。”她把那个棕色的小纸袋扔给了薇罗,薇罗打开它,深深地吸了一口气。 “啊,新鲜的宇宙球!”哇哦,努什基。 谢谢你。”威洛笑了,尽管她的眼睛因为哭而肿红了。 “嗯,我们是朋友,对吧?”阿努什卡说。 “当然了,”威罗说。 “你有很多朋友,”阿努什卡说。 “我注意到你这一点。 你也有一个最好的朋友。“是的,我喜欢。” 你!威洛说着,大嚼着一块宇宙丸子。 阿努什卡微微一笑,摇了摇头。 “不。我觉得你很棒。 但我说的是泰德。 你们俩是最好的朋友,你知道的。”柳树皱起了眉头。 “以前是,”她说。
