Homeward

Hmm.

Captain Severus, Captain Tad!

- Uhh! Uhh! - What do you see?

- Sharp Tooth is still advancing!

- Advancing? - There!

On the northern flank!

- Where? Where? I want to see!

Let me see! - It's too late!

General Sharp Tooth has used the power of the gem!

- That means General Star didn't steal the gem!

- She didn't? - We don't know that.

General Sharp Tooth can still use the power

of the gem even if it were stolen.

- I told you! You can't trust an orc.

Boo!

Whoa!

I'm okay. I'm okay.

Nice hat, Tad.

Star, did you get it?

- One mind-controlling gem, as promised.

Hmm. That is, if you trust me.

It's so shiny!

Don't touch, Tad!

The gem of the Mountain!

Of course, we trust you.

- Then you will destroy it and free my people.

Hmm, I knew you could do it.

We haven't much time. They're close!

What do you see?

Sharp Tooth is here!

What? Now?

You ready?

- Captain Severus, sound the alarm!

Let's go save the world.

- Mind-controlling gem as promised.

Those are big orcs!

- Elves! Arm your magic!

Huh?

Okay, let's do this.

You were very brave, Star.

Your axe!

My axe?

Trust me, please!

Star, we haven't much time!

Orcs, find my gem!

For peace!

Yes.

This peace will last as long as we trust each other.

- They're over that hill and they have my gem!

Rubicon! Epsilon!

Oh, mighty axe, we give you the power to destroy the hate,

destroy the fear and to destroy this gem!

Oh! Wait!

What?

- Hurry! Keep chanting!

- I'm done. It's up to you now, Star.

You must destroy General Sharp Tooth's gem!

Wait! Star!

I knew I smelled a traitor!

- Hey, there, Sharp Tooth. Time to split.

What are you doing?

You're destroying orc domination!

No!

- Hi, Teddy. - Hi, Boris.

We did it.

- And who can tell me what happened next?

Anyone?

Yes, Hermey?

After splitting the gemstone,

the mind control of the orcs was broken.

Thank you, Hermey.

- And then elves and orcs lived together in peace.

Yes, thank you, Hermey.

Forever and forever.

Miss Tenderfoot? - What is it now, Hermey?

- If orcs and elves get along so well,

then why is the only orc that goes to this school not here?

Well, he's...

- Doing what all orcs do, getting into trouble.

Um...

Can't I get a little respect?

Barl?

Whoops!

Shh, shh! Whoa, whoa, whoa!

Smooth.

You're late.

Hey, Forelle.

Where do you want this?

Whoa, it's perfect!

Um... uh... there!

- You must really hate your brother.

- What? No! Why would you think that?

Lloyd loves pranks as much as I do.

The prank is on him.

You're sliming your brother.

- And...? - On graduation day?

- And...? - In front of everyone.

Whatever. Your funeral.

It's the best prank ever.

He always tries to be the center of attention

being valedictorian and everything.

He'll love it!

- He's lucky to have you as a brother.

Lucky Lloyd.

Lumos discous.

Excellent, Lloyd,

but the Krune University recruiter

will want more than just dancing lights.

We're talking about the best of the best.

Can you dazzle me?

Dazzle, huh?

Illusios Dracanos!

Incredible.

They're gonna love you!

- Oh, thanks, Principal Ashford.

- Krune University. I'm so proud.

You know, I was a graduate of Krune University.

- Uh, can we go check on the lighting?

- Yes, of course. Good lighting is key.

Good lighting, it makes you look heroic and thin!

Not that you need that. I mean, you're perfect!

You're a perfect student of Elfdale High.

- You know, there are easier ways to pull a prank, Barl.

This is gonna be great!

- You can put spiders in his shoes

or replace his soda with ink,

all very reasonable.

That doesn't look very safe.

- Perfectly set. Okay, hand me the milk.

Hand me the milk.

What?

- I said... Oh, thanks, Forelle.

- Do you need me to do anything else for you?

Do your homework? Cook your breakfast?

Oh, I know!

I can dye your hair and give you a nose ring.

Wow!

The drama, the danger.

- Great! I need more milk.

It does the body good.

Go get some, please?

Fine! I'll get more.

You're not supposed to know magic anyway.

You're not an elf.

- With the right ingredients, everything is magic!

Hey! - What?

- You're shaking the catwalk! Don't shake it!

I'm serious, Forelle!

See you later, Barl!

- Did I ever tell you about the time I was voted

most likely to be a politician or a lawyer?

Oh, gnome biscuits!

- True story. People said I had moxie!

Moxie! Can you believe it?

- Principal Ashford, is this where I'll be standing

for my valedictorian speech?

- Huh? Yeah, right there.

Huh?

- Wait. Sorry, Lloyd. It goes over here.

Oh, no.

- Sorry, Principal Ashford, but the lighting's better here.

Oh, boy...

No!

- I'm at my wit's end, Mr. and Mrs. Lightspinner!

I'm afraid this prank was the last straw.

- There has to be something we can do.

- Barl is an orc, Mrs. Lightspinner.

You took him in when he had no one,

raised him as best you could.

But I'm sorry.

Barl is expelled.

- I have to hand it to you. You went out big.

It was just a prank.

Brothers tease each other.

Not about this, Barl!

This is the most important day of my life!

Do you even understand what I have to lose here?

Krune University.

- Exactly. Krune University!

I thought it would be funny,

like when we used to make snot poppers.

- That was in the fourth grade, Barl.

I don't have time for snot poppers!

I'm under a lot of stress!

You have any idea how big this is?

Yeah, I do.

It's all you've talked about for four years.

Krune University!

If I don't get in to this university,

I'm going to be a big fat loser like my baby brother!

That's not fair!

Look, I grew up, you didn't.

That's a fact.

You want to still be in fourth grade

making snot poppers and fart buckets.

But I am an adult now.

And you're still a baby.

- Am not! - Are too.

- Am not! - Are too! Are!

Oh, you're impossible!
