Chapter 2

One day while the little girl was walking with Jeeves, a Space Unicorn flew down from mid-range orbit. The Space Unicorn's mane was bright and shiny. It reflected all the colors of the rainbow.

&quot;What's your name?&quot; said the little girl.

&quot;Molly,&quot; said the Space Unicorn. She stamped and tossed her head. Her mane glistened in the harsh solar glare.

&quot;Will you be my friend?&quot;

Molly the Space Unicorn lowered her head and thoughtfully pawed the space grass.

&quot;I will be your friend if you feed me a bucket of the finest space oats,&quot; said Molly.

&quot;But I don't have any space oats!&quot; cried the little girl.

&quot;Ooops!&quot; said Jeeves.

&quot;Shut up, Jeeves,&quot; said the little girl. &quot;Molly, only the Wicked Witch of the Binary Cluster has space oats, and she lives on the other moon! If i may ride you, I will take you there and get you oats and you and I will be best friends!&quot;

&quot;Fair enough,&quot; said Molly. She lowered her neck to let the little girl climb on.

&quot;Wait!&quot; said the little girl, &quot;We need Jeeves too! He's too clumsy to leave alone. The house might burn down!&quot;

Jeeves tried to climb on the unicorn, but fell off once, twice, three times before he made it on.

Molly the Space Unicorn frowned at Jeeves and clomped her hooves impatiently.

&quot;Ooops!&quot; said Jeeves.
