I'll get them next time.

( whinnying ) So how long are you staying? Oh, just long enough.

Tell me, Sofia, have you finished the book I gave you? I just finished chapter 12.

I never knew how many kings and queens there were in Enchancia.

Oh, there's a lot of history in these walls.

Wait till you get to chapter 17.

That's my favorite.

But you should keep reading, because knowledge is the key to everything.

"Chapter 17, Behind the Walls.

" ( gasps ) What's this? Whoa! Hey! Whatcha doin', Sof? Clover! I found this book inside my book! Did you know there are secret passageways in the castle? Hello? How do you think I get in here? Huh? Ta-da! Huh.

( Amulet tinkling ) Huh.

My amulet's never turned blue before.

I want to look around in there.

Too bad you're not rabbit-sized.

But I could be.

My amulet gave me the power to shrink, remember? I wish to be small.

Are you sure you wanna poke around in there? Some of those passageways go all the way under the castle.

Sounds like fun.

Not as much fun as staying up here and taking a nap.

I'll be back soon.

I wish to be big again.

( gasps ) ( gasps ) ( music playing ) ( bell tolls ) ( Arabian-themed music playing ) ( native drums pounding ) ( Asian-themed music playing ) ( jazz piano echoing ) ( Celtic-themed music playing ) ( wind blowing ) Oh.

( whooshing ) How do I get in without a key? ( straining ) How do I get in? Hmm.

Maybe there's something in the book about it.

Hmm.

Knowledge is the key to everything.

Unh.

Unh.

Wow! Look at all these books.

( bell clanging ) Huh? ( bell clanging ) Hmm.

( bell clanging ) Wow.

( bell clangs ) Hmm? My castle? Wh--Where am I? The secret library.

Aunt Tilly? What are you doing here? How did you find this place? The same way as you, dear, although I did it 30 years ago.

You've been here before? Many times.

But this is the visit I've been looking forward to the most.

Now, come along, we've much to do.

Much to do.

We have to see if you have what it takes to be the next "storykeeper.

" Storykeeper? See all those books on the walls? Uh-huh.

Well, most of them don't have endings yet.

It's been my job to go out and find whoever the book is about and help them finish their story.

And now I'm hoping, that job will be yours.

Why me? The answer is right there around your neck, Sofia.

The Amulet of Avalor led you here, just like it led me here when I wore it.

You wore the amulet? Yes, I did when I was a young princess.

The amulet is how I knew you could be the next storykeeper.

That and passing all my little tests.

Which is why I gave you the key to the library.

Oh You should really sit down now.

( rumbling ) What's happening? Oh, this is exciting.

The library is choosing your first story.

( whooshing ) Here it comes now.

Well, what are you waiting for? Open it.

"The Tale of Wildwing Valley.

" Mmm.

Interesting.

NARRATOR: Once upon a pasture, there was a flying horse named Mazzimo, who lived with his family at a royal stable.

Even though he served a kind and noble king, Mazzimo yearned to be wild.

One night, a visiting horse told Mazzimo about Wildwing Valley, a magically hidden land where enchanted creatures roam free.

Mazzimo knew he had to find this valley.

So he said goodbye to his father, mother, and brother, who liked living at the castle and didn't understand why he was leaving.

They were very sad to see him go.

That's Minimus! Mazzimo is his brother?! The things you learn from books.

Mazzimo flew off in search of Wildwing Valley.

he was captured by the knights of Borrea.

Mazzimo was taken to the castle of Prince Roderick, where he has been held against his will to this day.

That's awful.

Unless you give the story a better ending.

I'm supposed to save Mazzimo? And help him find Wildwing Valley.

I'm not sure I can do this.

I know.

Being storykeeper is not easy.

But you can do it, Sofia, or you wouldn't be here.

So the real question isn't "can you do it?" It's "will you do it?" I will.

Whiz bang! But I don't even know where to start.

You can start by putting on something more adventurous.

That's not what I meant.

Mmm, how about this? I'll come with you this one time.

Thanks.

Minimus! What's up, Sofia? Come on.

We're going to save your brother.

Mazzimo's in trouble?! Oh! Well, then we have to help him! What are we waiting for? Let's go! Wait, where are we going? And how did you know I have a brother? I'll tell you on the way! Are you talking to your horse, Sofia? Oh.

The amulet gave me the power to talk to animals.

I should've known.

The amulet gave me all sorts of powers when I wore it.

Oh, I guess I should introduce you to my horse, Athena.

Nice to meet you, Athena.

Okay, then, let's shake a horse feather! ( Minimus whinnies ) SOFIA: Is Borrea far? It's only two kingdoms over, across the Strangeway Channel.

( Minimus whinnies ) TILLY: That's one big stable.

Mazzimo's probably in there somewhere.

Maybe I should search one end and you search the other.

Good idea.

( horse whinnies, kicks door ) ( kicking, whinnying ) ( whinnying ) Mazzimo?! Minimus?! Good to see you, bro! It's been so long since you took off and left us for no reason! You didn't even send a postcard! Uh, Minimus Whoa! I had a reason.

And then we come here to save you, and this is, like, the nicest stable ever.

TEMPEST: That's what we keep telling him, but does he listen? No.

We even have heated stalls.

Heated stalls?! The only way to heat my stall is to have a dragon set it on fire.

Yeah, it's nice in here.

But a cozy cage is still a cage.

It's not a cage! It's a royal stable.

And you are lucky to be here.

I'd rather be free.

Here we go again.

All right, Minimus, yeah, maybe you'd be living it up in here.

You don't mind letting people ride around on your back.

But that's not how I fly, bro.

Mazzimo gotta roam.

I really don't get you.

I don't get you, either, but you're my brother, so I let it slide.

Guys? Maybe we can talk about this after we get out of here, okay? ( straining ) Ah, you found him! Uh-huh, but the stall's locked.

RODERICK: Hallo? Do I know you? Uh, not yet.

I'm Princess Sofia of Enchancia.

And this is my Aunt Tilly.

Good afternoon.

I didn't know we were expecting visitors today, Gavin.

We weren't, sire.

Ah, well, guests are always welcome, although they usually knock first.

I am Prince Roderick.

You know, I was just about to take my horse for a spin, if you care to join me.

He hasn't quite taken to me yet, but I'm sure he'll come around.

No way I'm letting that guy ride me.

UmPrince Roderick? That's why we're here.

Mazzimo wants to be free.

Mazzimo? You mean, Thundercloud here? Can you believe that name? Your knights captured him, but he doesn't want to be here.

Of course he does.

This is the best stable in the world.

That may be true, but he's not your horse.

I beg to differ.

We found him flying loose in my kingdom three months ago.

No rider, no markings.

I believe the expression is "finders keepers.

" So there you have it.

Now, how about we all go for a ride and have a jolly time? Gavin? Right, sire.

( lock clinks ) Mmm! Fly for it, Mazzimo! ( whinnying ) Go, go, go! Watch your step.

( grunting ) SOFIA: Come on, Aunt Tilly! Let's go! ( Minimus whinnying ) ( whinnying ) This won't do at all.

I suppose we'll have to hunt them down and get my horse back.

Right.

Let's saddle up, Gavin.

( whinnying ) Whoo-hoo! Oh, I owe you guys big time! Hey, you wanna come to Wildwing Valley with me? It's just past those gorges.

Wherever we go, we'd better hurry, because they're chasing us! RODERICK: Ha ha ha ha! A-hunting we will go, Gavin! We should probably try to get them off our trail.

Let's try to lose them in the gorges.

C'mon! ( whinnying ) Wow, you are faster than you used to be! You ever think about racing? Now that you mention it, you know, we've actually won a few races.

Wait a second, I'm still angry at you! Faster, Minimus! Go, go, go! Hyah! That's it, Tempest! Reel them in! Gavin! Prepare the rope.

Aunt Tilly! They're catching up! No worries.

I know just the thing to slow them down.

Where did all this come from? So sorry, sir.

They're spoiling my suit! Minimus, I just don't understand why you're so angry.

Because finding this valley is all you care about.

You know, when you took off, you didn't just leave the stable.

You left Mom and Dad and me! Look out! MINIMUS: Whoa! Whoa! Sofia! Gotcha! Your bag! Oh, hold on! You're lucky she's all right.

Look, Minimus, there's something you should know.

Mazzimo, Look out! No! No! I'll get you loose! Ow! He's got my wing! Excellent! Now they have to fly whichever way we pull.

Let's land so we can secure them for the ride back.

Shouldn't we let the runt go? No, let's keep him.

Teach that little princess a lesson.

The prince caught them! ( whinnying ) Then we'll just have to un-catch them.

How? The prince has a sword.

All we have isan umbrella.

The umbrella can be mightier than the sword, Sofia.

We need your bag.

I'm sure there are tons of things we can use in there.

Let's land and look for it.

Okey-dokey.

( whinnying ) Let's spread out.

I'll check over here.

You check over there.

Oh, where is it? Oh! Oh, I'm never going to find it! I can't do this.

I can't do any of this.

I'm no storykeeper.

( amulet tinkling ) ( gasps ) Have I got your attention? Merida! How can I help you, Sofia? My friends are in great danger, but I don't know how you can help, unless you know where Tilly's bag is.

Oh, you don't need her bag 'o' tricks.

You're searching for the wrong thing in the wrong place.

What you need can only be found within you.

What's that? The belief that you can save them yourself.

That's just it.

I'm still getting used to being a princess.

How am I supposed to finish all those stories in the library if I can't even finish this one? Even though I've just begun To somehow get these stories done How can I Aim so high When I've let down everyone? Now I feel like I'm a fake Thinkin' there must be some mistake I can't see why she chose me When I don't have what it takes Oh, can I lead the way? Make everything okay? Just how am I supposed to save the day? And what is there to say When my chance has flown away? Why'd I think that I could be the one To save the day? You can sing all you want about your doubts.

We all have them, but you also have the power to wipe those doubts away.

If you believe in yourself and what you can do, just stand tall, and your aim will always be true.

You can save your friends, and you know it.

So get on with it! You're right, Merida.

Well, Sofia, what are you waiting for? I may not know Exactly how I'll do it But I know that I can free them If I put my heart into it Oh, I can lead the way Make everything okay I'm the one that has to save the day And there's nothing more to say 'Cept up, up, and away 'Cause I believe that I will be the one To save the day Save the day Save the day ( groaning ) I can't stand being tied up like this.

Now you know how I feel every day I spend in a horse stall.

That's why I had to leave home, and it was the toughest thing I've ever done, 'cause, you know, I love you.

But I couldn't stay in a place where I felt all tied up all the time.

You know what I mean? Yeah, Mazzimo, II do.

I finally do.

I'm sorry I was so angry at you.

I'm sorry I got you all caught up in this.

Oh! Do we have to take 'em back, Ellegra? We are royal horses, Tempest.

We have to do what the prince commands.

To the castle, Tempest! ( whinnying ) Whoa! ( whinnying ) Uh, Sofia, I hate to be a stickler for details, but do have any kind of a plan? Let's hope the umbrella is mightier than the sword.

Now fly me to Minimus.

But be as quiet as you can.

Gotcha! Goin' into stealth mode.

I don't know about you, but this racing about has made me famished.

I hope lunch is ready when we return.

Unh! Unh! Sofia?! (whispering) Shhh! Athena, go back and get Aunt Tilly.

Done and done! ( grunts ) Prince Roderick! Ah, Princess Sofia.

You can have your horse back.

I still have mine.

Now fly along home before someone gets hurt.

En garde! An umbrella? What do you expect to do with that? Wait for rain? ( laughs ) You can't be serious.

I'll chop that thing in half.

You won't get the chance.

Hyah! Hyah! What is she doing? Tuck your wings, Minimus! Tucked and ready! Whoa! Ouchee! Prince Roderick! Happy trails! Gavin, come and fetch me.

I just need to get you untied.

Take your time, Princess.

We shoulda let you go in the first place.

Here, Sofia.

Let me.

( whinnying ) All right, let's go back for Aunt Tilly.

Sofia! Look what I found! SOFIA: Your bag.

MAZZIMO: Hey! It's the Glittering Gorge! That's the way to Wildwing Valley! Then let's go.

Mazzimo, do you mind if I come along? I think I've had enough of Prince Roderick.

Sure thing, Tempest.

( whinnying ) ( whinnying ) Where is Tempest going? Ohh! Wait for me! ( whinnying ) RODERICK: Ellegra! What a thoroughly ungrateful horse.

Guess we're walking, sire.

Uh, Mazzimo, that looks like a dead end up ahead.

It's a hidden valley, remember? Sofia, why are we flying right toward that cliff? Mazzimo says it's the way to the valley, and I believe him.

Well, I guess one way or another, we're going to finish this story! I can't look! It was an illusion! You can open your eyes now, Minimus.

You'll wanna see this.

Wildwing Valley! I'm finally here! ( whinnying ) Welcome to the valley.

I'm Marchand.

Mazzimo.

I've been lookin' for this place for a long time.

Hey! Why don't you stay with me, Minimus? I know Mazzimo gotta roam, but Minimus gotta go home.

I guess we're just horses of a different color, but you're still my brother, and I love you.

I love you, too, bro.

I'll come back and visit you sometime.

You know where to find me.

MARCHAND: Time to hit the skies! ( whinnying ) Bye, Mazzimo.

Fly safe! Congratulations, Sofia.

You finished your first story.

So what's next? Why don't you have a seat and find out storykeeper?
