Cherry came into her husband's room as he played his beloved instrument. "Charles, have you ever been to Enchancia?" she asked as she sat on the bench right next to him and leaned her head on his shoulder.
Forte visibly shuddered in a lustful way from her engagement towards him. "Erm, I haven't been in a rather long time, I used to teach piano there..." he then said softly.
"Atticus and Mo are planning on taking their children there," Cherry replied. "I think we need a vacation."
"I think you're right." Forte said.
"Let's do it then..." Cherry said as she rested her hand on her stomach.
"Fliss, could you come in here, please?!" Forte called for their daughter.
Felicity walked into her father's room as her boots squashed across the floor with every step. "What is it, Papa?"
"Pack up, Flick," Cherry said. "We're going away for a little while."
"To where?" Felicity asked.
"It's a world called Enchancia," Forte told his daughter. "I used to stay there for a little while after I've moved out from Master Adam's castle to find your mother and start a new life with her."
"Do you have a book?" Felicity sounded hopeful.
"It's a magical kingdom," Forte picked up Felicity in his arms as they went to help her get ready for their travel. "There once lived a young girl named Sofia, she led a simple life, working in the shoe shop with her mother, Miranda."
"Ooh." Felicity smiled.
"One fateful day, they were summoned by King Roland II, who needed a new pair of royal slippers." Forte continued as they started to pack up to get going.
"Did his old pair go old?" Felicity asked.
"You could say that," Forte replied. "Sofia and her mother arrived at the castle. Sofia was very excited to meet the King. Miranda placed a slipper on the King's foot. It was a perfect fit. And so were they!"
"Did they get married?" Felicity asked about that mention of being perfect fits.
"Indeed," Forte nodded to his daughter. "King Roland and Miranda were soon married. And what seemed like a storybook ending was really a storybook beginning..." he then smiled softly. "Like when I met your mother when she was a high school sophomore."
"Aw!" Felicity smiled.
Cherry merely glanced at her family as she took out a black negligee. "What do you think, Charles?" She showed the sexy nightgown to her husband. "Too revealing?"
"Um..." Forte said.
"Maybe I'll put it back." Cherry turned away icily.
"No, no, it's fine." Forte said.
"Hm..." Cherry replied.
"Besides," Forte smirked. "Shouldn't I shudder at the feeling of seeing you in something as ravishing as that?"
Cherry smirked back and slid her fingers through his silvery hair. "I'm not a day over nineteen."
This caused Forte to laugh nervously. Cherry smirked to him lustfully.
"I haven't seen you smile in years..." Forte smirked back.
"I'm in a good mood~..." Cherry winked.
"And I'm happy for that." Forte said.
Cherry poked his nose playfully.
Forte bent down in front of his young wife's stomach, knowing that her hormones were acting up. "Merci, enfant..." he then whispered thankfully for his wife's playful mood.
Witherspoon the pigeon was carrying a letter in his talons and was on his way to the Fudo house to deliver a message to the family to let them know that Cherry and Forte would be coming along to Enchancia with them.
At the Fudo house, everyone there was getting ready, but due to most of them having magic they all packed up rather fast.
"Show-offs..." Vincent mumbled about his twin siblings' use of magic.
"Want some help?" Akito offered.
"We'd be more than happy to." Estelle added.
"Well, I could use some help with my luggage." Vincent said.
"Come on, Sis, let's give our brother a hand." Akito said.
Estelle nodded in agreement. Vincent smiled as they were going to help him with his luggage with their magic. Snow White was napping in the middle of the floor as usual.
"Do you do anything beside sleep?" Angel complained. "Come on, kid, you're gonna miss your whole life go by!"
"No, I won't." Snow White yawned.
Angel sighed and rolled her eyes. "Why did we take you in again?"
"Because I'm Vincent's pet," Snow White smirked in her sleep. "And he adores me~"
"Oh, brother, you can't even chase or eat a mouse." Angel rolled her eyes.
"Yeah." Vulpix said.
"Can so!" Snow White glared.
"A mouse!" Angel pointed as a mouse scurried across the floor. "Get it, Snow White!"
Snow White watched the mouse go and deadpanned. "Get it, Angel."
"You just proved our point." Vulpix said.
Snow White scoffed in response.
A pigeon then flew out onto the window sill. Scruffy ran to the window and barked rapidly to scare off the bird.
"Scruffy, stop, that's just Witherspoon from Cherry and Maestro's place." Scamp reminded his nephew.
"Ohh." Scruffy smiled sheepishly.
"Mo, there's a letter for you and Atticus!" Angel called.
Mo walked into the room since she had free time, then took the paper from the pigeon's talons and opened it up. "Thank you, Witherspoon."
Witherspoon bowed to her.
Mo looked over the letter and had an expression of pure happiness. "Atticus, they're coming with us!"
"Oh, great!" Atticus poked his head out with a smile.
"How much luggage did you let him carry this time?" Angel smirked at Mo.
"Not a lot..." Mo smiled shyly. "Erm... All of our bags combined.."
"All of them?!" Angel asked.
"Uh, I broke a nail..." Mo waved her hand slightly.
"He volunteered, didn't he?" Patch smirked.
"Very funny..." Mo laughed, then looked to the pets. "Okay, now we can only take a few of you along."
"Patch should go, I had my first adventure with Atticus, but he's had so many more than I did." Scamp replied.
"Yeah, it'll be good for them." Angel agreed with her mate.
"I'd love to, but I have to stay at Shelter 17, Lucky is going on vacation with Dot and her family." Patch said.
"Is Colette gonna go with you then?" Mo then asked since the two were oh-so close after all.
"Yeah, since she is a Pound Puppy." Patch smiled.
"Oh, she is?" Mo asked.
"Yeah, she joined after I, uh... Well, you remember that time in San Francisco..." Patch replied softly.
"Well, you guys have fun then..." Mo gently hugged the dalmatian. "We'll bring you back a souvenir or something. Angel, Scamp, do you wanna come along then?"
"Ooh! Adventure with Aunt Angel and Uncle Scamp!" Scruffy grinned.
"Yay!" Dot cheered.
"Hmm... What do you think, Angel?" Scamp smiled to his mate.
"Well..." Angel paused to think about it.
"Please...?" Dot and Scruffy smiled pleadingly to their aunt.
"It's alright with me." Angel smiled.
"Yay!" Scruffy and Dot cheered in response to that.
Atticus soon came into the room, carrying the luggage like a strongman.
Mo smiled in admiration. "Put it in the truck."
Atticus nodded and went to do just that.
"He sure does love to show his strength." Scamp said.
"I know, isn't it wonderful?" Mo sounded like she was deeply in love with her husband's power.
"Well, I wish I could help with packing." Scamp said.
Scruffy soon got an idea as he began to sneak over to Scamp.
"I'm sure you would if you could." Angel smiled to her mate.
"Do you know what this Enchancia world even is?" Scamp asked. "It sounds like something out of a fairy tale that Darling would read to Junior."
"Well, in a way, it's filled with magical and mythical creatures and fairy tale characters." Mo said.
Scruffy soon started to give Scamp a strength boost. Scamp yelped slightly, then felt relaxed.
Scruffy snickered as he secretly helped his Uncle Scamp. He then felt someone's strong paw stop him by stepping on his tail. "Ooh!" his eyes then widened.
Patch glanced down to his son. Scruffy looked over and smiled sheepishly. Patch smirked before moving out of the way to show that it was really Scamp that stopped him from moving.
"What'd I do?" Scruffy smiled sheepishly to the adult dog.
"I don't know, but I have a feeling I should thank you for it." Scamp said.
Scruffy smiled softly. "I thought I'd do something nice for the best uncle in the world."
"Did you give your Uncle Scamp god-like strength?" Patch smiled.
"Yes, sir," Scruffy replied. "I thought it'd be nice, plus, he's going on an adventure with us."
"Buddy, you're going on vacation," Patch chuckled to your son. "I don't know about an adventure... Then again, you are going to a magical kingdom world."
"Well, thanks, little buddy." Scamp smiled to his nephew.
"You got it, Big Buddy." Scruffy saluted his uncle.
Patch looked at the clock. "Oh, look at the time," he then looked to his son. "Mom and I need to go now, son. Dot! Come on! We have to leave now!"
Colette then came in with their daughter to say goodbye so they could get to Shelter 17 to fill in for Lucky. "So, sweetie, that's why you shouldn't have to worry about what the 'other pups' think."
"Okay, Mom, have a good time with Dad." Dot smiled.
"I sure will, dear." Colette smiled back.
Dot nuzzled against her mother.
"You kids have fun now." Patch smiled as he came to Colette's side.
"We sure will, Dad." Scruffy smiled.
"Behave yourselves." Colette then sad.
"Yes, Mom." Dot giggled.
"You two have a good time, we'll keep a good eye on them." Angel promised.
"I'll definitely keep an eye on this little guy." Scamp smiled as he ruffled the top of the fur of Scruffy's head.
Scruffy chuckled to that. Patch and Colette gave their goodbyes and went out the door to get to Shelter 17 to fill in for Lucky while he would be away with Dot and the family.
Atticus's younger cousin Dot, who was now around late middle school/early high school aged, was waiting for Lucky to come home as she took out her own Crystal Sword and Shield which were an emerald green color. After waiting for a little, while Lucky came in after rushing.
"Ready to go?" Dot asked.
"Yeah, sorry that took so long, Dot," Lucky smiled softly. "Sometimes it's hard to say goodbye, but let's get going..." he then noticed she had her Crystal Gem stuff. "You're bringing your weapons?"
"You never know..." Dot shrugged.
"Okay, but just put them away." Lucky said.
"Just making sure my sword's all nice and sharp," Dot said. "I had to get it checked out because of the last time."
"Don't worry, I'm sure you're safe from that Jasper person for now." Lucky nodded.
Dot nodded back and then she did put away her sword and shield into her bag and zipped it up. "Okay, let's get going."
"Great." Lucky smiled.
Dot then went to meet her parents and they were now on the way to their vacation with Lucky. The Fudo family and the Fudo family were then all set and were now going to this land known as Enchancia. As they were going there, they seemed to be going to when the girl known as Sofia was first going to become a princess as she was still dressed in peasant clothing as her mother called for her to come to the coach to take them to their new home in the castle as royalty.
