BASED ON JAN BRZECHWA'S NOVEL "THE ACADEMY OF MR KLEKS"

RAHDAR THE REALM OF THE WOLFURS

My lord,

I have found the murderer

who caused our family so much suffering.

Many years ago, he took the form of a bird

and hid in the fairy tale about the Academy of Mr Kleks.

We'll get him, my lord.

And we'll punish him appropriately.

No one will stand in our way ever again.

LITTLE POLAND NEW YORK

Get out of my way, boy!

My name is Ada Contrary,

fatty.

Here we go.

Hi, Dad.

I'm 12 today.

Let me show you what I like best.

What I like best

is a good plan.

MUM: YOU WON'T BELIEVE WHAT I GOT!

I'm telling you.

I've planned today out perfectly.

I let myself eat sweets only once a year...

so I don't get diabetes before I'm 40.

Now I'm checking in on my friends.

They don't know that I know they're coming to my surprise party.

See you later!

And finally, visiting our place of power. We'd come here every year on my birthday.

This is where you taught me everything.

I was never able to focus...

as if monkeys were jumping in my head.

STEPPE UKRAINE

Stay.

Stay.

He'll be back.

We always come back.

Olé!

KŌBE JAPAN

SÃO PAULO BRAZIL

Get back to work.

Ms Dylewska from the Urban Architecture Department,

why are bird-deterring metal spikes being installed on tenements?

Because pigeon droppings can cause damage to the external walls.

I'll never get this right.

Really? Have you ever seen a bird

whose droppings could damage external walls?

It would have to weigh 50 kilos.

I have to work on my landing.

And then she says, "I don't know. I've never been to Paris."

Kiko, you've been chosen from among millions.

Mr Kleks

saw great potential and passion in you.

You'll flourish among the most gifted children in the world.

Pack your things.

Let's go, my friend.

It's all going as planned. I go in, and everyone shouts, "Surprise!"

I'll be surp...

Sorry, the dog is blocking the entrance again.

Happy birthday, Ada.

I hope you like your present.

What is it?

I'll teach you one day.

Thank you.

- Bye. - Bye.

Hello.

I'm here. You can come out.

Where are you?

KLEKS ACADEMY

- Guess what? - I know.

I got in touch with an Ecuadorian diplomat.

He's found a trace in Guatemala.

- Ada... - Stop looking for him, Mum!

Ada...

- I forgot about your birthday. Sorry. - All you had to do was stick to the plan.

Dad's gone, Mum.

But I'm still here.

I'll make it up to you, I swear.

I promise.

Listen...

That's barbaric!

Right...

enough sightseeing.

Prince Matthew.

On the King's orders, come to the Wolfurs' realm.

You'll be tried in wolf court.

Back off, woman.

Prepare to die.

I'm just... a normal guy, not a bird.

See what's happening, Dad?

Wherever you are...

I hope you'll watch my video one day.

And come back to me.

Keep it next to your bed.

I'll keep one next to mine.

I'll see all your dreams in it.

When you have a bad dream,

I'll rub the mirror, and the nightmares will disappear.

It'll show you the way.

Save the world, Dad. I'll take care of everything.

I have everything planned.

Who's gonna erase my nightmares now?

This wasn't the plan, Dad.

Hello. Excuse me!

Señora, hello!

Can you open the window?

Hello.

Excuse me. May I use the lavatory?

Who are you, mate?

You know the worst part of being a bird?

Doing your business.

It's easy for humans. You use the toilet.

But it's a problem for us birds.

We don't even know when we...

Listen to this. I'm talking to this chick.

We're chirping away and suddenly...

That's right!

So embarrassing, I'm telling you!

I'm sorry!

Hello.

Sorry, I didn't even introduce myself.

My name is Matthew, and I'm a bird.

A bird?

Right.

I'm here to invite you

to Kleks Academy.

Your time has come, Ada.

Wow!

I'll give you three books if you take me to that fairy tale too.

I'd love to, but it's an academy for children.

If you want...

I can call you "Chief", OK?

I guess you can.

This is insane.

I have to fly.

I know how you feel, brother.

What are you scared of?

The Academy is ranked as the best... school in the fairy-tale world.

- There's no fairy-tale world. - Wait!

Yes, the numbers are dropping since children have less imagination now,

but the Academy really exists.

And you have an important role to play in it.

Firstly, I don't believe in imagination. Secondly, I'm not changing schools.

Professor Ambrose Kleks is the headmaster. He's a wonderful teacher and my friend.

He's also your dad's brother.

- My dad doesn't have a brother. - In this world.

Imagination sucks. If Dad didn't have it, he wouldn't have gone across the world.

He would've stayed with me and...

What's Kleks Academy?

I thought I had more time.

Matthew the bird came to see you?

Not a bird. A madman who thinks he's a bird.

Your dad and I both studied at the Academy.

That's where we met and fell in love.

You're talking to me, not writing a fairy tale.

I'm grown up. Tell me the truth.

You are...

You're the daughter of the Grand Master Alex Contrary.

You have a great power within,

and the Academy is calling on you.

I'm surrounded by loonies.

How am I meant to be normal when everyone's nuts?

All I want is a plan to follow. No more fairy tales. I'm not 11 any more.

You can avoid the truth about yourself and the Academy,

just like you avoid the dog.

The one downstairs.

What?

- What do you know about the Academy? - I think you should face your destiny.

But there's no Academy.

My dad wasn't a master. He was

a normal dad.

Who are you, other than my neighbour? Why is everyone talking about this Aca...

Your power

will find its proper form at the Academy.

Then you'll be able to solve the mystery of your father's disappearance.

Dad?

What will you choose, Ada?

The world you know?

Or the adventure of a lifetime?

Can I take my mum?

Why did you

choose this place?

That's personal.

OK.

I won't pry.

Here's how it works.

As a kid, you can go from the Academy to the real world for as long as you want.

- You just have to say the spell. - The spell?

Yeah, right.

Adults can go to the real world for 24 hours.

If they cross the time limit, they stay in the real world forever.

That's why I can't go, love.

Between worlds, you may not transport dangerous tools

or food.

Transporting animals...

is strictly prohibited.

Ada Contrary.

Time to leave the nest.

Remember,

fairy tales have all the answers.

Fasten your seat belt and repeat after me.

When I eat a lot of flowers...

"When I eat a lot of flowers..."

September turns to May within hours.

"September turns to May within hours."

Stinging nettles hurt me bad...

"Stinging nettles hurt me bad..."

- Now I'm feeling very sad. - "...very sad."

Gather the horde.

The wax isn't melting!

Dad, we did it!

If it works here, let's do the same over Ithaca!

Hi, I'm Kiko.

Natasha. Hello.

Hello, I'm speaking. I'm right here!

Students of the school of imagination, please join me.

A sip from the Babel Fountain will make you all speak the same language.

Go ahead. Drink.

Dip your beaks.

The moon once visited the pond

Because he had a lot on

The pikes then had a chat

"Who is that? Who is that?"

Hi, my name is Kiko.

Hey, I know other languages.

I understand you. Do you understand me?

Hi, I'm Batar.

The moon then quickly did reply

"I am a goldfish from the sky"

What did the table say to the spoon?

A fisherman's rod then caught him out...

Nothing, because tables can't talk.

For breakfast he cooked him, of course

"Who is that? Who is that?"

Zita, the queen of dad jokes.

Right. Let's get to work.

Welcome to Kleks Academy!

That bird talks!

As a human, I have it under control.

As a bird, let's just say,

I go all over the place.

Welcome to our fable Where sheep all dance on tables

Pinocchio's happy singing The trees around us are swinging

Here, music plays forever

Forget the rhythmic measure

Forget the sounds, it's art

Write songs with all your heart

At the Academy, the most creative ideas

materialise as butterflies.

And in that form, they fly to the real world

to inspire everyone!

Here, birds don't sing, they bark A snake looks like a shark

So tell me, can you feel it?

Come on, tell me you mean it

Impossible is nothing All creatures, they are jumping

The children fly their aeroplanes Across the lush green terrain

This is the largest fairy-tale collection in the world!

Some of these books are the only copies in the universe.

Here, knowledge is like blocks Not just those tough as rocks

Can turn it into a weapon

That's imagination, I reckon

And when the music's playing

Dance or just keep on swaying

No need to ask anyone

Practice karate, have some fun

There are trees with superpowers

And many singing flowers

Lobsters rhyme as fast as they walk

The birds here can talk.

That's impossible.

That's impossible!

I'll get you!

Deep in the waters

Treasures are hidden

All of our dreams and hopes come true

Sailing through moments

I see halos glisten

Someday, I'll find the me I knew

Here will be fine.

And that's how storm clouds develop.

- Did you see that? - Yes.

No plans, no regulations

Just wait for your vocation

Trust Kleks Don't be scared

Just wait and be prepared.

Let's begin.

All night in a creamy sauce

For breakfast he cooked him, of course

A berry.

Matthew should be here in three, two, one!

This bird can dance and sing

He'll teach you everything

What to eat and what to wear

But leave his droppings everywhere!

It's not nice to make fun of things I can't control.

Come on. Don't be mad.

Oh my! Help!

That hit me hard.

Can't you somehow propagate the berries, Professor?

So I can be a full-time human?

- Yeah, right. - I'd use a responsible dose.

I could stop any time.

How are the new children?

We have a lot of work to do.

I mean, they have.

- Any favourites? - Maybe.

But you can check yourself, Professor. You can go there, talk to them, meet them.

Why the tricks?

Please. You know how I love a good entrance.

- Wow! Two times of the day at once. - I've never seen anything like this.

Flying islands.

Rock, paper, scissors.

May I?

Cool bow tie.

Bow, or a prow, is the forward part of a ship.

I'm Ada.

And you are...?

Albert.

These are frecklemetres.

At birth,

each of us has 50 freckles.

When we reach zero, we become grown-ups devoid of imagination.

The worst kind.

But when we reach 100,

we forever become people full of imagination.

Go on.

Give it a blow.

Don't be scared.

You'll start seeing the digits appear.

- Forty-nine and a half! - Forty!

Wow. Fifty!

This is Octavia,

a multi-functional robot created by Philip Rakvelle.

Obviously, an outstanding alumnus of the Academy.

Shoo! Go on. Shoo!

I love this guy.

No way.

Let's be serious.

Or ridiculous.

- I don't know yet. - See?

That's how you tell jokes.

Theory

of imagination.

Open your textbooks to page 12.

You don't have textbooks

because no one has written any textbooks about it.

By the way, what is the greatest spell in the world?

Abracadabra?

- I know! - I know you know.

- Hocus-pocus? - I know!

- Expecto Patronum? - But I know!

Great. I'm not asking you. I know that you know.

I know that I know.

The greatest spell in the world is,

"What if?"

I knew that.

Whenever we ask ourselves, "What if?", the magic happens.

We become creators, fairy-tale writers.

You must be Ada Contrary, Anna and Alex's daughter, right?

Tell me, Ada, what if Kleks had three hands?

- Or what if Matthew was... - Not again!

A clock?

What if there was no ceiling?

What if one has no imagination?

It's me who asked, Ada Contrary.

How could that be? Everyone has an imagination.

Try again.

Imagine anything.

Close your eyes.

Imagine whatever is on your mind.

Wow. Amazing.

It's not a bad thing to imagine something bad.

Pat yourself on the head for that. You can all give yourselves a pat.

You're a liar. You have a great imagination.

That beast wouldn't appear without it.

Time to eat!

What's pecking you?

Excuse me?

What's troubling you?

Why do I only have a few freckles?

- Does it mean I'm already a grown-up? - Almost.

We lose our childhood as a result of sad events.

That's how we lose our imagination.

My dad's missing.

My mum keeps forgetting about me.

Anyway... what's the point of having an imagination?

Everyone needs it.

You just have to

kick-start it.

But I can't.

I need a plan to do anything.

Besides, I don't think Mr Kleks likes me.

Did my dad do something to him?

Is he mad about something?

Mr Kleks

gives me one fruit from the transmutation shrub each day.

When I eat it, I become almost human.

But after a few hours...

this happens again.

That's why I have to top up.

Aren't you supposed to eat one a day?

Officially, yes.

You're OK as a bird too.

I'm done.

What about these?

- Put them in the dishwasher. - There's a dishwasher?

And a washer-dryer.

Uncle...

It's about to start.

Camouflage lesson.

End of lesson.

Harmony lesson.

Harmony. You can't create without harmony.

You can't invent without harmony.

Everything comes easier with harmony.

Is that right, Ada Contrary?

Stand up.

Sit comfortably.

Stand up.

All right. Close your eyes.

Breathing will help us.

And one...

Focus on the air coming through your nose.

And two...

Feel it.

Three...

Now recall something nice.

Something important.

Significant.

Oh, dear me.

Put me down!

This is not a joke.

This is not a joke.

I didn't expect this.

It's OK, Kiko.

I am Alex Contrary's daughter.

OK, Ada. We're ready.

Three, two, one.

- Harder! - Ada!

- Ada... - We're just playing.

I know. But that wasn't the plan.

Use your skills

only under the supervision

and with the permission of Professor Kleks.

Defiance will be pun...

punished.

You've entered the Academy without consent.

Oh, dear me.

- She fell from the sky. - Is she more of a wolf or human?

We called her Snag.

- Maybe she's a vampire. - Vampires burn in the sun.

- Can she stay? - We don't know her vaccination status.

Snag...

Snag can stay.

Yes!

What if she has fleas?

We're ready.

Not long now.

What shall we do?

Dessert? Nonsense.

Silliness.

Nothing important.

Time for a but-elimination lesson.

But-elimination is removing the word "but" and replacing it with the word "so".

What do you dream of?

I'd like to talk to animals, but they don't want to talk to me.

I'd like to talk to animals, so I'll learn to observe them first.

I'll learn what to notice. I must...

First, I must learn to listen to them.

What's up, Doc?

Why don't you tell me what's up with you?

You only ask when the children are around.

I'd like to become a magician, but nothing works for me.

I'd like to become a magician,

so I'll practice with all my might.

I want to be the best rugby player in my town, but...

But...

I want to be the best rugby player, so I'll start playing.

A rhymic lesson.

Let's start the first sentence. On the Islands of Bergamut... Kiko!

- There are no such islands. - Next!

On the Islands of Bergamut lived Puss in Boots.

Well done! Attention! Next sentence.

There also was a mule...

- Carried by an ant to school? - We have the first verse!

On the Islands of Bergamut Lived Puss in Boots...

Follow me!

There also was a mule Carried by an ant to school

No way.

Relax.

We're not in a hurry.

- And hens, I have been told... - Lay eggs of solid gold?

- Oak trees grow big bananas... - In colourful pyjamas!

And hens, I have been told Lay eggs of solid gold

Oak trees grow big bananas In colourful pyjamas

- I think I should leave. - What?

I don't belong here.

A whale ancient and wise...

Wears glasses as a disguise!

- And salmon are so clever... - Seasoned with salt and pepper!

A whale ancient and wise Wears glasses as a disguise

And salmon are so clever Seasoned with salt and pepper

Don't say that. You do belong here.

- But I can't... - No "but", only "so".

Follow me!

- And on a high mountain top... - Is an elephant who can bop!

With two trunks, he's a shock!

But none of this is true.

And on a high mountain top Is an elephant who can bop

With two trunks, he's a shock!

Except none of this is true. Right?

Sit down, please.

You got in, so you must have potential...

like every other child here.

The sense of taste and smell is in our heads, like our imagination.

However, the taste of food doesn't come from the food itself.

It comes from the colour.

- What? - Here you go.

Well?

Go on. Be bold.

Feel the colour. Hear the taste!

Wow!

Exactly.

Well done. That's it.

Now you. Go on. You know what to do.

You know the rules.

Very good. Keep going.

I love these lessons!

Your turn.

Look! Wow!

We've got an apple.

Close your eyes. Concentrate.

Really good.

- I did that? - Very good!

Attention!

Everyone, look up!

What's up, Doc?

Good night, world.

You know you're not allowed to do this.

"I am not a bird."

"I am a prince."

"Travelling has always been my passion."

"I'd often sneak out at night to explore the fairy-tale forests,

which my father never accepted."

"He was scared."

"Now I know why."

"I had no choice."

"I didn't mean to."

"He stabbed me in the stomach with a dagger-sharp claw."

"The doctors summoned by my father were unable to heal me."

"And then, he arrived."

"Doctor Pai-Hi-Vo. I felt an invigorating surge of strength."

You shot the King of Wolfurs.

You must know that Wolfurs are terribly vengeful.

This is why I'm giving you the magical cap of the Bogd Khans.

Should your life be in danger...

"...put the cap on, and you will be able to turn into any being you desire."

Once the danger has passed, just pull the button.

"You'll become..."

...yourself again.

"The Wolfurs broke into the palace."

"I realised that the button was gone."

"Maybe if I looked around... But I couldn't wait."

"I put the cap on and said..."

I want to be a bird.

I became

what I am today.

I'm sorry. I was just really curious and...

I write by dipping my beak in the ink. That's why the letters are made of dots.

I've been looking for my button for years, hoping to become human again.

The Wolfurs know where I am.

They're coming for me.

And they'll be ruthless.

We must tell the Professor.

He has to have a plan.

The Professor knows.

Wait. You knew the Wolfurs wanted to attack the Academy,

yet you brought me and the others here?

Maybe you should give yourself up to the Wolfurs and...

- Then the story won't be complete. - What story?

There's a great harmony within you.

It can save the Academy.

Ada, you are

the answer to all our questions.

No. You must have confused me with someone else.

We're ready, my lord.

How will we get there?

We'll wait for an invitation.

Diego, work on your area of the sky.

Kiko, disperse the clouds. Concentrate! It's just water vapour.

Professor, it's not working.

Don't worry. Try again. Clouds are like stress.

- Sooner or later, they'll pass. - I have a joke.

Oh no!

Matthew the bird dropped a blot.

That's a good one.

The Academy likes you.

Professor Uncle.

This used to be your dad's.

What could...

What can

my dad actually do?

He can

reconcile people who are at odds with each other.

It's a great art. The art of harmony and empathy.

What is empathy?

It's the ability

to understand the thoughts and feelings of other beings.

A special moment when the "I" disappears,

and we start thinking,

"How would I feel if I were you?"

Snag?

What do others say about you?

That I stink, that I have fleas and that I'm suspicious.

That's a lack of empathy.

And what do you see?

You're here alone.

Without your mum.

Without Dad.

I know how you feel.

People think you'll become evil, but you have a good heart.

You're among friends. Your heart won't get lost.

And that's empathy.

Put it on.

Snag, stop eating ants. Go to the children and disperse clouds.

Clap.

How do I turn back into myself?

How can I be myself?

Clap again!

Professor.

You have to see this.

- There are wolves here! - Calm down.

Ladies and gentlemen, not everyone at once! Calm down!

Didn't I tell you?

Thanks.

Aladdin, what's happened?

- What's happened? - Wolves. Everywhere. I mean... people.

Wolf-people? Of some kind.

They're literally in every fairy tale except the Academy's.

Maybe they don't know how to get in.

...she stopped writing.

When you came to the Academy, I...

I just didn't know how to react.

- Because you're just like your dad. - But why me?

Why am I the answer to all these threats and questions?

Because that's what's written in the fairy tale.

- But... - No "but".

So.

So what's written in the fairy tale?

I've had enough of secrets. The fairy-tale characters... were terrified.

- Often, something must end... - No. Nothing has to end.

Here you go. Warm cocoa from Snag.

Are you more of a human or a deer?

I don't know. Are you more of a human or a wolf?

Bring more blankets.

And one more thing.

Remember, both you and her can become whoever you want to be.

Ears, teeth or even antlers don't write our future for us.

- We have to follow Snag. - Why?

She seemed a bit strange.

She went to the Valley of Fairy-Tale Doors.

I don't want to go alone. Come with me.

- No wolf can escape this. - What if one of us gets caught?

- Only wolves get caught in wolf snares. - How can snares tell the difference?

Albert! Come on!

Hi. Have you seen a hairy little girl?

No.

But I did see a dozen or more

Wolfurs.

Would you like a bite?

I wouldn't eat that.

Have you seen an adorably hairy little girl?

No.

Have you seen a white rabbit?

He just went in there.

Let's go.

- Are you not going to freeze? - No.

I still have a few matches.

Little traitor.

Prince, it's time.

This is my room because it's filled with my things,

my secrets,

and no one is allowed to enter.

Where is Prince Matthew?

Rehsharoo what? I don't understand. I don't know what you're saying.

I'm asking you,

where is Prince Matthew?

I don't know who that is.

- Talk! - No one like that has ever lived here!

Let's find Matthew,

cut his head off

and go home.

Leave the Academy!

I was talking to you, woman. You wicked she-wolf with no imagination.

Leave the Academy!

You don't remember your grandfather,

but I remember my brother's death all too well.

I want to feel the smell of vengeance. Understand?

And I want the entire Academy drenched in its stench!

I don't understand.

Brothers and sisters,

born of wolf blood,

who brought us here?

Who snuck into the Academy and opened the door to our victory?

This is our hero!

What hero? That's just Snag.

Traitor.

Ada Contrary knows where Matthew is. Find her.

Ada Contrary!

I know you're here.

Tell us where Prince Matthew is,

and I promise that no harm will come to you.

Find her.

I think this is yours.

All is lost, isn't it?

No. Not everything is lost.

- Untie us or we'll catch a beastly cold. - I can't.

- You had it all planned, didn't you? - No!

I'm the reason they took you in. I convinced Kleks to let you stay.

- I should've listened to Matthew. - But I like it here.

- That's why you led the Wolfurs here? - They're my friends. Older friends.

I showed them how cool I am. Did you hear how they showed me respect?

How can we get rid of them?

You can't be friends with us and Wolfurs at the same time.

That's a shame. I thought you'd get along somehow.

Search every nook and cranny.

So it's you.

The question is not whether you'll turn Matthew in to us.

The question is when you will do it.

How long will you watch

your friend's suffering?

Stop it!

You'll hurt her!

Leave her be!

Let the story come to an end. Just don't hurt the children.

Take him.

Residents of the Academy and other fairy tales.

Get out!

Get back to your own world.

And you, Ada...

He ran towards the lake.

Don't come here.

Stop.

I got lost.

- And when I saw that... - Don't move.

I'll get you out.

I will.

Help!

Hold on to something.

Hold on to the shore. Paddle. Or give me your hand.

Your hand.

Give me your hand.

You were my only friend.

No, stop talking.

Stop talking. Just move. You can't freeze.

- Thanks to you, I stopped being a freak. - Don't say that!

Do something.

Sing to me.

I can't sing.

Sing the song you were humming at the Academy,

when we first met.

Albert, please.

Albert, please.

Please.

A cloudy day

Where all is grey

The world is losing colours now

Please stay with me Just hold my hand

Today, I'd hate to be alone

Yes. Very good. Hold on. Someone will see us soon.

A starless night

When darkness comes

And takes away the joy in us

Please stay with me Just hold my hand

Today, I'd hate to be...

Alone

Albert! No!

You were my best friend.

No. The fairy tale can't end like this.

KLEKS ACADEMY

"Ada reached Matthew's chamber."

"She saw the book and began to read."

"She noticed that the fairy tale

ends at the exact point where Ada is now."

"This surprised Ada."

This fairy tale isn't finished.

"Suddenly, Ada heard a sinister voice."

Get out of the Academy.

Although I am your daughter and I may have some powers,

I couldn't save the Academy.

I couldn't write the rest of the fairy tale.

Kleks was wrong.

Our neighbour... That doctor was wrong too.

Everyone was wrong.

And I was right all along.

They won't work in the real world.

I know.

That's just poor design.

I've lost my friend.

I've lost my dad.

I've lost my uncle.

Clearly, that's what was written in the fairy tale about the Academy.

No, it wasn't. This fairy tale is unfinished.

I tried to write the rest but couldn't.

I didn't know how to use

that thing.

A fairy tale isn't created as it's being written.

It comes into being before, in the author's head.

No more philosophies, please. I need simple words.

I need simple words.

I'm just a girl with a plan that didn't work out.

What would

the doctor say?

Doctor.

Today

I'm only a memory

The echo

Of childhood glee

I once

Was just your dreaming folly

The world

Belonged to me

When did Matthew kill the King of Wolfurs?

Many years ago.

There's still a chance.

I saw good in his eyes.

Whose?

I know how the fairy tale ends.

Well, then, you have to return to the Academy and write it.

I still need the button.

If you overcome your fear,

you'll find the answer.

I'm the daughter of Alex Contrary, the Master of Harmony.

A special moment when the "I" disappears.

If you overcome your fear,

you'll find the answer.

We start thinking,

"How would I feel if I were you?"

All it does is yap all day long. I can't stand it.

Whose dog is it?

Do something! It's impossible to sit here. It keeps barking!

Why are you on the road?

Eat from my hand. The dog will eat it if it falls.

Everyone's mad at you, so you're mad at everyone.

You can be my friend if you want.

The button.

Hi, Diego.

It's Ada.

Hi, Ada! What's going on?

"Diego got in touch with the other students."

"The group of friends decided to go back

and save the Academy."

I'll write my own fairy tale.

No more reading.

Don't do it, Ada.

No one is born evil.

Our circumstances and decisions make us that way.

What would adults do without us?

Ada!

Why did you let this happen, Uncle?

You knew it would bring so much misery.

See, this is a very interesting point. It's one thing to know, but life...

- Be quiet. I'm talking. - Don't you...

I've learned to use my power. I know what empathy is.

My great inner calm is my strength.

Guess what else I have.

- What? - The button.

- But... - No "but", only "so".

So either come with me to save the Academy, or...

All right. You've convinced me.

Just get me out of here.

And you know what?

I've decided...

- You can call me "Uncle". - But I already do.

- Yes, but you haven't asked my permission. - Help me.

No.

Not by force.

With power.

Come with me.

Trust me.

No!

No!

No!

No!

Your turn.

- What? - Try.

- No, I can't. - You're ready.

No!

She's not ready.

No!

Not bad.

Cool. I was flying. That wasn't strange at all.

I'll do it again one day, maybe as a hobby. I'll invest in it.

- Professor! - Come here.

- Professor! - Hello!

I was flying.

I experienced flying.

What's the plan, Uncle?

Professor Uncle.

First, a debate and vote.

In the event of an equal number of votes, or the lack of 50% or even 25%

of the members of the general assembly, the deciding vote...

May the moon give you power.

...academic title. That's me.

Hey!

They're cheating.

We should also consider catering. Who wants some apple pie?

- Me! - Me!

We can't beat them. They're immortal.

When they become normal, that hag powers them up with moonlight.

Right. This is the plan.

Professor Uncle, take her ring.

Diego and Natasha, cover the moon with clouds, just in case.

Everyone else, spread out. Separate the Wolfurs.

Don't let them contact each other.

And you?

And I...

I'll handle their king.

Hey!

Welcome to our fairy tale, thickheads!

It'll be OK...

mate.

Take care of the rest.

She's mine.

I'm sure you want your execution to be visible from even the very last row.

Where did...

I love these berries.

Excuse me! You've barged into the Academy and interrupted the education

of many very talented children.

Another birdie.

He flew over here, after all.

Matthew made a mistake, but in self-defence.

- We mustn't judge him now. - Judge? We'll settle for an execution.

Ice cream without coffee? Are you aiming to kill?

Kill? I'll settle for a knockout.

Oh, dear me.

My dad also thought girls couldn't fight.

And you know what?

He was sorely mistaken.

Be grateful that I don't know the saw-in-half trick.

Do you know this one? What do you call a careful wolf?

Aware-wolf.

This is a task for a true warrior.

You're Ada.

I sent you home,

yet you're back here trying to stop me.

And I won't stop until you set Matthew free.

- That man killed my grandfather. - And he paid for it.

In the world of wolves,

the law of vengeance prevails.

Is that your opinion?

Or the old hag's?

Wolfurs inside the Academy are off to their fairy tale.

Their leader has said,

"We're done here, fellow Wolfurs. Let's go back home."

I repeat...

Fellow Wolfurs, we are leaving the Academy.

The beach in the tale of the Little Mermaid awaits us.

It's not me speaking, you idiots!

I'm right here!

It's the cabinet of sick items.

There's no time. Let's go.

How about this one?

Who says, "Oh oh oh"?

Who?

Santa walking backwards.

Riddle me this. Don't disengage. A little bird but a large cage.

Attention, Wolfurs! We're leaving the Academy.

Matthew?

It's the boss. Take care, little girl.

I'll deal with him.

I'm playing straight from the heart.

Success! Let's go.

You are

very clever.

And you're terrible.

You don't know me.

My best friend died because of you.

His name was Albert.

He died trying to escape your pack.

I'm sorry about your friend.

You're sorry?

Clearly not sorry enough to spare Matthew, who is also my friend.

Stay calm, Ada.

Sisters and brothers born of wolf blood.

We'll think of something.

The moment we've been waiting for has come at last.

- You'll be a murderer if you kill him. - Silence.

The harm done to my brother

will finally be avenged.

Someday, someone may avenge Matthew. Do you want that?

It is customary to grant the convict's last wish,

but here's some bad news for you.

We're from a different fairy tale.

We can stop this. I know how you feel.

How can you possibly know?

Finish what you started!

Come on. It's either you or him!

They forced you to be cruel.

You don't have to do this. You're not like that.

Here comes vengeance!

Here comes justice! Atonement!

This is no ato... something.

This is just more senseless madness that will never end.

You lost your grandfather. Matthew lost his parents and his life.

I don't have a dad, and Albert died because of her.

Do you want this to go on?

At least let Matthew return to his old form.

Let his last wish come true before he dies.

How?

Untie me, please.

Prince!

Move away!

Say it, Prince.

I want to be myself again.

I thought...

that I had my whole life ahead of me.

He paid the price.

He spent his life hiding from you in a foreign body.

You're blinded by vengeance.

But this isn't your emotion.

It's hers.

Bile floods your eyes and hearts.

But you're not like that.

Why are we fighting each other?

Why can't we just be children,

create fairy tales, use our imagination, move clouds with our minds?

Only we can stop this needless war.

We can be ourselves.

We can be children.

Brothers and sisters!

No one's death can fill the void

created by someone else's death.

We're going home!

For my brother!

Release them.

Should you ever need my help,

squeeze it in your hand and say my name.

You can stay.

You're not a villain.

I don't know your name.

Vincent.

The King born of wolf blood.

Oh, dear me.

...sighed the celery.

I'll accept that.

Now what?

You'll go back to your homes.

I'll rebuild the Academy and then...

And then?

You know...

You did what your father had done.

You ended a war full of suffering.

You saved the innocent.

Alex would be proud of you.

I love you, Professor Uncle.

Hi, Dad. Today is my 13th birthday.

I have nothing planned today. Whatever happens, happens.

Fairy tales are best when we don't know the ending.

Surprise!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, ADA

I'll get it.

Albert?

Ada...

I...
