The little Magic Mouse wasn’t really a mouse he was a wizard but he found it more convenient, and easier, to operate as a small mouse, as he could get into small holes. He was in touch with all the little mice and all the wizards and creatures all over the place and that is where he heard of all the bad things that were happening. One day he heard of a young girl being bullied in school by bigger kids so he went to the school, found the right classroom, scuttled to the group of bullies and started to nibble the ringleader’s shoe. She looked down and saw the mouse. She screamed and jumped up saying there’s a mouse, there’s a mouse. Everybody looked around but couldn’t see a mouse so they all laughed at her. She was so angry because everybody laughed she stomped out of the classroom with the laughter ringing in her ears. This didn’t really stop the bullying at first so the mouse went back to the classroom again a few days later and made the ringleader look silly again. All the other kids in her gang lost admiration for the bully so she ended up with no friends, that put a stop to the bullying in that school. So that was something else he'd put right as he was a very good wizard and he didn’t like to hear of bullying or people cheating others. He didn’t only go after people who were doing the bullying or cheating, he also helped people who were honest but poor. However, he kept that to himself as he didn’t want to embarrass the people who were struggling, because they couldn’t help their situation. Another time this magic mouse helped out was when he saw a small boy with a slight limp sitting on a wall looking very sad, he thought to himself I won't show my self as this small boy might be frightened so he transferred his thoughts into the small boy’s head, the boy looked up and seemed surprised, the next time some one looked at him or made some nasty comment on his size or his limp he just looked at them straight in the face and laughed at them, this made the other person look silly. So the next time some one makes fun of you or is nasty to you just be brave, think of the little magic mouse.
