[laughs] All right. Time for one more,'cause we're almost there.
Hey, come on.Boarding school's gonna be great.
Just think of it as a new adventure.
[sighs] It doesn't feel very adventure-y.
Sure it does.
You're heading out on your owninto the unknown.
How adventure-y is that?
Mmm. I guess that's kind of adventure-y.
Okay. Yeah.It's a good thing I'm prepared.
Behold!
Uh... [chuckles]What exactly am I beholding?
It's a light lance. I made it last night.
I call it Excaliboom.
[chuckles] But why?
You said this school has a lake.
Well, if there's a lake,there'll be a lake monster.
Maybe even a mud-bellied leviathan.
When I said adventure, I meant more
getting out thereand maybe making some friends.
You think I should make friendswith the leviathan.
Interesting.
Better brush up on my monster slang.
You don't wanna go saying the wrong thingto a mud-bellied leviathan. Trust me.
[chuckles]
[door opens, closes]
This time will be better. I promise.
You said that last time.
Can't I just stay home with you?
I'm sorry, darling. This is for the best.
It's okay to feel worried,
and it's okay to feel scared.
That's how all the best adventures start.
You just need to give them a chance.
Let them get to know you.
You don't need to stayin your own little world all the time.
But I like my world.
I don't wanna be stuck in this world.
It's boring and normal,and no one wants me in their world anyway.
Hey, hey. Now, you listen to me--
They-- They think I'm weird, Mum.
They call me names.They always laugh at me.
Mum, do you think I'm weird?
Yes.
And I wouldn't have you any other way.
You're a dreamer.
And it's the beautiful oddballs like youwho make a difference
and change this boring old worldfor the better.
You just haveto find your place, that's all.
I'm so proud of you.
Well, will you be okay without me?
Of course I will.I've got my mask too, remember?
What's wrong?
Nothing. Nothing.
We're just going to miss you.
[school bell rings]
[no audio]
[children snickering]
[boy] Lame mask. [laughs]
You look like a wolf. [laughs]
[sighs]
-[giggles, purrs]-Huh?
Hello, new kid.What's with the weird mask?
Uh, nothing.
-Is that a treasure map?-Well, yeah.
Why?
Well, every explorer needs a map.
Hey, check it out.He thinks he's a pirate.
[children laughing]
[girl] Thinks he's a pirate.
Hey! Get off! What are you doing?
-[girl] Please.-Oh.
[girl 2] Oh, my gosh.
[girl 3] Wow.
-[laughing continues]-[girl 2] Check it out.
[sighs] This is so not adventure-y.
Oh, wow.
-[babbles]-Um, hello.
Where do you come from?
Hey! Do you have a name?
-[babbling]-[laughs]
-[babbles, giggles]-Where'd you go?
[purring]
-Whoa!-Hey!
[squeals]
Don't worry, little cloud. I'll save you.
[grunting]
[sighs] Hurry up, Sprout.We're gonna be late.
[laughs] He's so slippery.
-If that thing gets me wet---That thing has a name,
which, as you well know, is Floof.
I am not calling it that.
Oh, crumbs.
-[girl grunts]-[Floof panting]
-[babbles]-[growls]
[babbling]
-Wow.-[giggles, babbles]
You know, Xandra, I don't thinkyou're taking this project seriously.
We were supposed to loveand care for Floof.
You were the one who let it escape.
Floof just wanted to get up hereand be a grown-up cloud.
Don't you, my little Floofy face?
Okay, let's go.
Auntie Xandra's beinga grumpy bum, isn't she?
Sprout, get in the portal.
A grumpy, grumpy bum.
Sprout, if you don't get in that--
A grumpy, grumpy, grumpy-- Hey!
Bum.
Curiouser and curiouser.
[school bell rings]
[children clamoring]
[screams]
[grunts]
Hello?
[gasps]
-You following us, pal?-Yeah, pal?
Um, I was just, uh--
What are you doing with that poor cloud?
Floof? Oh, he's a friend of Floof's.
No, Sprout. He's a human.
[gasps] A human?
Of course I'm a human.What else would I be?
And what is this place?
Nowhere. No place. I-I-It's a secret.
I mean, a dream. All a dream.
You're not supposed to be here.
You'll have to gobefore you get us in trouble.
No, wait. I don't want to go back.
I'm not a human.I'm, uh, whatever you guys are.
Oh, you're a spryte.
Yeah, one of those.
Can you see me?
Yes.
See, he can't be a human.Humans can't see sprytes, you big silly.
A spryte, huh?
Okay, if you're a spryte,you'll know where the Cloud Lab is.
-[chuckles] Of course.-Mm-hmm. Where is it then?
Easy. It's right, um...
here.
[monster roars]
And by here, I of course meant...
here.
Just kidding.
It's actually--
[growling, snoring]
Okay, okay. Last one.
[gasps]
What is this place?
What do you mean?It's the Everything Factory, silly.
So, what kind of spryte are you, anyway?
Um, well...
[sighs] This is just great.
We need to get him back to the human realmbefore someone notices--
Just what are you sprytes doing?Lollygagging?
[gasps]
I would never.
Oh, Professor Luxcraft. [nervous laugh]
And who's this now?
Smells awfully suspicious.
Oh, he's-- he's n-- he's new.
Strange name, "New."
I knew a Newt once.I think he owes me a sandwich.
Um...
That blaggard thought I'd forget about it.I won't have it. I want my sandwich!
[nervous laugh]No, sir. He's a new student.
His name is Wolf... uh... boy.
Wolfboy. His name is Wolfboy.
A new student, eh?
[gulps]
Well, well, well.
Run along now, little sprytelings,or you'll be late for class.
Oh, and if you do happento bump into Newt,
you tell him he better butter up,because I'm coming for my sandwich.
Sandwich!
So you were a spryte all along.
No, Sprout. He's still--
[sighs] I was just... Never mind.
Right, human. You'll have to cometo the Cloud Lab with us. But lay low.
Then we'll figure outhow to get rid of you.
Remember, class, this is one of the mostimportant zones in the factory.
Every element of the world's weatheris made in the labs here
and then shipped up to the surface.
Snow, sunshine, wind, rain. All of it.
Where did he go? Ugh.
Are those clouds?
If you're referringto the cloud-shaped, cloudlike clouds,
then yes, those are indeed clouds.
Now, follow me, everyone.
Why are they inside?
You know, for someone who'strying to lay low,
you're talking an awful lot.
[Sprout giggling]
[teacher] All clouds start off smalland white and fluffy,
just like the baby cloudsyou've been looking after.
[babbles]
But when they get older,clouds can become very emotional.
It's our job to keep them happy.
[cloud laughs]
But no cloud is happy all the time.
Sometimes clouds get sadand become rain clouds.
[cloud crying]
And sometimes they get angryand become storm clouds.
[cloud shouts]
But these emotions are all partof the balance of things.
After all, the world needs rain clouds.
Okay, everyone, your assignment wasto look after your cloudlings
and prepare them for the surface.
Let's see how you got on.
Okay, Floof. Ready?
Now you can go up thereand be a cloud for real.
[groans]
Just-- Just be yourself.Make us proud, okay?
[purrs, babbles]
Oh, they grow up so fast.
[clouds groaning]
[sighs]
[teacher] Ugh.
Oh. Beautiful.
Hmm. Oh, yes. Mm-hmm.
[babbling]
[clouds laughing]
[groans]
[whispers, indistinct]
[giggles]
Where are they taking Floof?
Maybe there's a special placefor extra cute clouds?
Okay, all of the clouds over hereare ready for the human realm.
-Well done, sprytelings.-What about Floof?
I'm afraid this cloud is--
Well, it wouldn't quite fit in up there.It's a little too odd.
[groans]
But that's a good thing.
[purring]
[purring continues]
[grunts]
-[laughing]-[whimpers]
[growling]
[growling, grunting]
Floof?
[roars]
Stay calm. Everyone, follow me.
Everyone here? Oh, my goodness!
[roars]
We can't leave now.This just got interesting. Right, Sprout?
Sprout?
Maybe if we just keep really quiet,he'll tucker himself out.
No way. I'm gonna have to getin there and sort this out.
Human, you stay back. I'll handle this.
But I can help.
Ooh, what's your power?
He doesn't have one, Sprout.For the last time, he's not a spryte.
[yelling]
No powers, eh? How about this!
Wow! Is that a shield?
Um...
[grunts]
[cloud growls]
[yells]
[grunts]
It's not working!You're just making him angrier!
[roars]
[gasps]
I told you to stay back!
[roars]
Whoa.
I have an idea, but I need to get closer.
-Closer? Why?-I think Floof's just upset.
I get like that sometimes.
You turn into a massive,lightning-filled cloud monster?
Kind of. On the inside.
And what would you suggestwe do about that?
-Sprout, those vine-y thingies.-Meep! Where?
-No, I mean the things in your---These old things?
Yeah! Do you thinkyou can get me up there?
So I can talk to him.
[growls]
I can try.
-Ready?-Ready.
Floof. Floof, it's me.
Hey, listen. It's going to be okay.
[growling]
I know things seem bad.You feel like you don't fit in,
and you feel like nobody likes you,and you don't really know why.
Then your head gets all messylike spaghetti and fireworks.
I get like that sometimes too.
But you know whatalways makes me feel better?
A hug.
Would that be okay, if we tried that?
[purrs]
[groans, babbles]
He must be a great hugger.
[groans]
[purrs, babbles]
Look at what that cloud of yours has done.
-Where is it?-Cloud? Was there a cloud?
-I didn't see any cloud.-What exactly do you mean by "cloud"?
Hmm. Luxcraft would like to see youin his office. Now.
Oh, crumbs.
-[door opens]-Meep.
Wow.
-A hug?-Um, pardon me?
You calmed down that storm cloudwith a hug?
Uh, yes.
-Why, that's brilliant!-[all sigh]
-Now, about this human.-[gasp]
We're sorry.We'll take him back right away.
Wait. I don't want to go back.
I don't fit in up there.
They-- They all think I'm weird.
Ah, what does that matter?
Why, it's the oddballs like you,the ones who don't fit in,
they're the ones who make a difference,who change the world for the better.
You just have to find your place up there.
But what if my place is here with you?
Humans belong in the human realm.The clue is in the name.
But he's not a human. He's a spryte.
Humans can't see sprytes,but he can see me and you.
How do you explain that?
How indeed?
And he glows.
-What?-Yeah, what?
Humans aren't supposed to glow,but he glows sometimes. I've seen him.
Glows, does he? That's odd.
I wonder.
Perhaps there's more to youthan meets the eye.
So I can stay?
You may stay.
-[Sprout] Hooray!-For a little while at least.
What? Why?
I'm not sure yet.
But there's something about him.I can feel it tickling my beard.
I-- I need some time to think.
Ah. There is one condition.
Yes. Anything.
Humans aren't supposed to knowabout the spryte realm,
let alone be wanderingthe corridors willy-nilly.
If word spread that a humanwas down here, well...
Let's just keep that mask onand keep all this human business quiet
until I can figure out whatto do with you, okay?
Okay.
Mum was right all along.
This is so adventure-y!
-[babbles, purrs]-Hooray!
[blows] Hooray.
