It was handed to Gail Elsy who wrote:
 
The white dogs kept their distance from the brave little explorers.  The
smallest of the dogs led the two young warriors deeper into the forest.
Though frightened, Lil' Bear went first.  Snowflake couldn't hide her
excitement and her majestic fur raised slowly upon her body until she
closely resembled a snowball.
 
The enticing smell made the curious raisin hunters move faster and
faster.  As they approached the stream, they began to shake form
excitement.
 
The stream was lovely delicious ferratone, the drug of all cures, the
balm to soothe any problem.  A mysterious black figure approached.  the
dogs whined and groveled at her feet, eager to please your mistress.  She
was pulling something that made horrendous squeaky sounds as it rolled
behind her.  The shadow woman reached behind her into the mysterious
contraption and pulled out....
 
And to Rebecca McFarlane:
 
Two black leashes, with horrendous, rhinestone studded halters.  The
shadow woman's head swung back towards the two ferrets, and a terrible,
rusty voice issued from within the black hood.  "Ah, two lovely ferrets
for the collection.  I shall break you to leashes, teach you to be calm,
docile creatures, never to play or have fun again."
 
Suddenly a loud CRACK sounded overhead, with a scream of "YEEEEEHHHAAAAA"
reverberating through the suddenly shimmering air.  Lil Bear looked up
and started to dance, Snowflake started to smile.  The white dogs were
suddenly scattering in confusion as a small, white form whirled through
them, chattering, biting them, and driving them away.  Another form
rushed into Lil Bear's side, dooking and dancing, telling him, "Let's
gets these things!" With Lil Bear in the lead, Snowflake and the other
two ferrets beside her, they routed the white dogs, which became black
kitties and then became smoke, never to be seen again.  The shadow woman
started to scream curses, but was suddenly smacked on the head by a staff
holding a gigantic hairball.  She looked up to see a red wagon quickly
descending upon her, and realized the Ferret Oracle was there!  The
shadow woman began to run, pulling her perverted, black wagon behind
her, but the wheels were falling off, and the Oracle crashed into her,
knocking her down.  Lil Bear suddenly appeared, and began to bounce
across the downed, evil woman.  Snowflake appeared, along with the other
two ferrets, which turned out to be two of the Crew of Merry Mayhem.  The
white fluff was Ghost, the ruby eyed terrorist, attacker of cats, and
Komet, one of the fastest ferrets in the Crew.  They joined Lil Bear in
holding the shadow woman down, dancing across her, with Ghost chattering
curses all the time, (cause she's a "Jersey Girl.")
 
Suddenly the four ferrets backed off the shadow woman, for the Oracle
approached.  Her voice rang out.  "You, evil woman.  You shall be
punished for hurting ferrets, for desecrating the forest, holding the
raisin tree and ferretone river hostage.  On your knees, witch."  The
shadow woman rose to her knees and the Oracle with a look of total
disgust, took her staff and flicked the hood off the shadow woman's
face to reveal..........
