A/N: Who wants my brain? I'll donate it to charity after I die
In a local dance studio, the students were dancing for practice that they had learned. The woman in charge watched them practice, but it felt like there was something missing from the routine, but she wasn't sure what it was just yet, and where her answer came as she saw a certain Fudo girl practicing her dancing and seemed as if she had danced all her life, but that was only one of the answer she would need.
"Thank you for helping me with the groceries, honey." Mo smiled to her daughter.
"You're welcome, Mom." Estelle said, stopping her dancing for right now with her hands in her pockets.
They soon went to go into the store while Estelle took a look at the dance academy across the street, but before they could get inside...
"Excuse me." An older woman's voice spoke up.
"What is it, Mom?" Estelle asked.
"Oh, I didn't say anything, dear." Mo replied.
"That was me." The older woman announced, coming behind the mother and daughter.
"Can we help you, Miss?" Mo asked the older woman.
"Allow me to introduce myself," The woman seemed to smirk. "I am Madame Natasha."
"Me hopes it's not Natasha Fatale after Moose and Sqvuirrel~" Mo whispered in a Russian accent.
"Mom!" Estelle giggled to her mother's little impression/joke.
"Hello, Madame Natasha, I'm Monique Fudo, but my friends call me Mo, and this is my daughter, Estelle." Mo greeted the woman, shaking hands with her.
"As you should know I am the woman in charge of the local dance academy across the street and I couldn't help but notice how wonderful of a dancer your daughter is from outside the window." Madame Natasha told them.
"You think I'm wonderful, ma'am?" Estelle smiled.
"Yes, you seem to be a professional for your age." Madame Natasha replied.
"Well, my daughter has been dancing ever since she was a little girl," Mo smiled. "And I think watching the ballets really helped her with her inspiration."
"That is astounding and which is why after seeing her dancing, well, I would be delighted to have her perform at my dance academy." Madame Natasha told them.
"Oh! How sudden..." Mo replied. "That's very nice of you, ma'am."
"I insist she enrolls." Madame Natasha nodded.
"Erm... I should discuss this with her father." Mo replied nervously.
"Well, just in case your answer is yes, here's her enrollment." Madame Natasha told her as she handed her the enrollment.
"Thank you, Madame Natasha, we'll keep in touch." Mo smiled.
"Hope to see you soon." Madame Natasha told Estelle before leaving.
Estelle now looked over the moon excited as Madame Natasha the woman in charge of the dance academy across the street acknowledged her talent.
"You really wanna do it, huh?" Mo guessed.
"Oh, Mom, I really do..." Estelle told her mother. "It's... My destiny!"
"Well, we should talk this over with your father first before making your decision." Mo said.
"Okay, Mom." Estelle smiled.
Eventually, after shopping a while, they came home together, and where Mo instantly went to talk with Atticus to talk to him about Estelle being enrolled into the dance academy.
"Dance Academy, huh?" Atticus asked.
"Oh, Atticus, her eyes were literally like stars." Mo told her husband.
"Hmm... Well, the dance academy is close by and it would get her to show her talent to everyone that goes there." Atticus said.
"So, is it all right with you?" Mo asked.
"Why not?" Atticus smiled to her.
"Oh, she's going to be so happy." Mo beamed, happy for their daughter.
"I know she is." Atticus smiled.
Mo soon hugged her husband and he hugged her back.
Meanwhile, upstairs...
"Sounds like Dad said yes." Akito smiled to his sister as he listened in for her.
"WAHOO!" Estelle cheered.
Atticus and Mo heard that from downstairs and smirked to each other, and where they decided to tease her a little bit. Akito and Vincent soon took Estelle downstairs.
"Hi, Mommy~" Estelle smiled, hugging her mother before going to her father. "Hey, Daddy~"
"Hey, Mom. Hey, Dad." Vincent smiled.
"Hello, kids." Atticus and Mo smiled back.
"So, do you have an answer for Estelle about a question Mom asked you, Dad?" Akito asked.
"Question?" Mo smirked.
"About me going into the dance academy...?" Estelle prompted her parents.
"That's riiight..." Atticus smiled. "I almost forgot~"
"How could you almost forget?" Akito asked.
"Ooohh... Well, your mother and I are getting old..." Atticus smirked.
"Daaddy~..." Estelle pouted.
"All right, all right," Atticus chuckled. "In all seriousness... I suppose if you really want this, Estelle, you can join the dance academy."
"Yay!" Estelle cheered.
"You better not give it up quickly though." Atticus smirked playfully, though he was often told that as a kid by his parents, but he knew Estelle wouldn't do that since she loved dancing more than anything.
"Oh, I won't, Daddy, I promise." Estelle smiled.
"Alright then." Atticus smiled back.
"Oh, I can't wait to tell Lee." Estelle beamed.
"You do that now." Mo smiled.
Estelle hugged them and she decided to whip out her cell phone and call her boyfriend right away. Luckily, after a few rings, Lee soon answered.
"Hey, Estelle." Lee answered with a smile.
"Lee, hi," Estelle smiled back. "I was hoping to hear from you."
"Heh, someone sounds excited." Lee chuckled.
"Guess who just got enrolled into Madame Natasha's Dance Academy?!" Estelle asked out of excitement.
"Hmm... You?" Lee smirked playfully.
"Yes!" Estelle beamed. "Oh, Lee, this is like a dream come true for me!"
"That's great, Estelle." Lee smiled.
"I had to tell you," Estelle smiled back. "Lee, I'm so happy, I feel like I'm walking on air."
"Knowing you, you're probably using your tiptoes." Lee chuckled.
"Maybe." Estelle smiled sheepishly.
"That's great, Estelle," Lee smiled back. "Um, you think maybe I could walk you to your new school?"
"Sure." Estelle smiled back.
"Cool, when do you start?" Lee asked.
"Oh, I don't know yet, but I'll let you know first." Estelle replied.
"Great." Lee smiled.
"Oh, Lee, I'm just so happy..." Estelle smiled back.
Lee felt very happy to hear that. "I'm happy that you're happy."
"I'm happy you're happy I'm happy." Estelle giggled.
"You're going to be a great dancer." Lee smiled.
"Oh, I hope someday I can grow up to be a professional ballerina..." Estelle beamed as she imagined herself all grown up as a dancer to perform for shows like actors in theater.
"I'm sure you will." Lee smiled.
"Thank you so much, Lee," Estelle smiled back. "I'm so excited."
"I hate to hang up right now, but I gotta do some quick chores, but call me back when you find out more." Lee said.
"I will, thanks, Lee, love you." Estelle smiled.
"Love you." Lee smiled back before hanging up.
Estelle soon hung up next. Akito and Vincent smiled as they felt happy for their sister.
And where soon enough, they went to tell Madame Natasha their answer.
"Hello, Madame Natasha?" Atticus asked on the phone as he held the enrollment in his hand.
'Yes?' The woman's voice replied.
"This is Detective Atticus Fudo, I believe you asked about my daughter earlier." Atticus said.
'Ah, yes, yes!' Madame Natasha replied. 'She seems quite exceptional!'
"She certainly is," Atticus smiled. "Which is why I've called you to tell you that our answer is yes, we'd love for her to be enrolled."
'Oh! How wonderful~..." Madame Natasha sounded delighted to hear that. "I'd love to have here as soon as possible."
"I think she'll love to be there as soon as possible." Atticus said.
"Marvelous, Detective Fudo, I'm sure she'll love it here." Madame Natasha beamed.
"Trust me, if it has dancing involved, she will." Atticus smiled.
"Come to the academy tomorrow at 11:00," Madame Natasha suggested. "I look forward to your visit and her enrollment."
"No problem," Atticus smiled before they soon hung up. "She sure sounds excited."
"Sounds like Estelle is already a star pupil." Mo chuckled.
"Yep, sure does." Atticus smiled.
"I'm sure Estelle's invited Lee to come along, so can I trust you to not make a big deal?" Mo asked him.
"Mo, I promise, Estelle is growing up, and I'll respect her privacy." Atticus promised.
"Pinkie Pie Promise?" Mo smirked.
"Really?" Atticus smirked back.
"Maybe," Mo giggled. "Luckily I went grocery shopping, so I can make a special dinner for the kids about Estelle's big honor. Hmm... What to make though?" she then wondered.
After some thought, Mo soon knew just what to make.
"Fish..." Atticus smiled.
"Estelle eats fish sometimes, plus we haven't had any in a long time." Estelle said.
"That's true." Atticus nodded.
"Sorry, I'd make steak, your favorite, but you know how Estelle is about meat." Mo told him.
"I'll try to survive." Atticus playfully sighed about not having steak for dinner tonight.
Some time later, it was soon time for dinner.
"Kids! Dinner!" Mo called out.
In a flash, the Fudo siblings smiled as they came downstairs to have a special dinner in honor of Estelle's new scholarship.
"Mm." Estelle smiled.
"We're really happy for you, dear," Mo smiled back to her daughter. "After dinner, I have a little something to give you..."
"Ooh..." Estelle smiled before they soon began to eat their dinner.
After a while, dinner was soon finished.
Akito grinned, leaning back in his chair with a toothpick in his teeth.
"Well, Mom, you can sometimes 'tune a piano', but I guess you can also 'tuna fish'!" Vincent commented before laughing as Akito and Estelle sighed to their brother's pun.
"Anyway, lovely dinner, Mom." Estelle said.
"I'm glad you all liked it," Mo smiled. "Luckily I got to shop and we ran into Madame Natasha on the same day."
"We loved it!" The teenagers beamed which made Mo look so happy since she was an awesome mother.
"Also... Estelle..." Mo said as she took out a jewelry box and soon opened it before taking out a necklace with a golden heart on it. "This was my mother's, and... I think you should wear it for good luck, not that you'll need it, but I think it would look nice on you."
"It's lovely." Estelle smiled.
Mo smiled back as she soon put the necklace around her daughter's neck. Estelle smiled as she wore it and took a look in her phone's camera, taking a picture with it.
"It looks perfect on you." Mo smiled.
"It's so beautiful, Mom," Estelle smiled back. "Thank you. So, uh, when do we go to the school?"
"Tomorrow at 11:00," Atticus informed. "You should get some things together before you go to bed and maybe call Lee back. I'm sure he wants to come see this for himself."
"I will." Estelle smiled.
Everyone else smiled to Estelle as she looked very happy.
"I don't think I've seen her this happy since her fourth birthday when she asked for an Alicorn." Mo giggled to herself.
Estelle got everything she would need for tomorrow. Dot soon climbed up onto Estelle's bed as she packed up.
"Oh, Dot, this is the happiest day of my life." Estelle smiled as she hugged her dog.
"I've never seen you this happy, Estelle." Dot smiled back.
"I don't think I've been this happy in a long time," Estelle smiled. "Oh... Do you think the other students will like me?"
"Why wouldn't they like you?" Dot smiled back. "You're a very likable and charming girl like Aunt Cinderella or Aunt Belle, and even Aunt Ariel."
"Yeah." Estelle smiled back.
"I know you're going to be the best dancer there." Dot smiled.
"Oh, Dot~" Estelle smiled back, hugging her dog again out of excitement.
Dot then beamed an licked Estelle's face happily which made them both laugh.
Soon enough, Estelle called Lee to tell him the news.
"Tomorrow at 11:00?" Lee asked.
"Are you doing anything around then?" Estelle asked.
"Hey, Mom, can I go with Estelle tomorrow at 11:00 somewhere?!" Lee called out to his mother.
"Sure!" Karen told him.
Lee smiled and then got back on the phone. "Sold."
"It's gonna be even better with you with me~" Estelle beamed to that in excitement.
"I can tell." Lee smiled.
"Thanks, Lee." Estelle beamed.
"No prob." Lee smiled.
"I just hope she remembers to get some sleep tonight." Dot smirked to herself playfully about Estelle's excitement.
Later that night, everyone was asleep, but Estelle seemed to be dancing in her sleep as she dreamed about being in Madame Natasha's school, and where Dot noticed this. Estelle even picked up Dot and danced with her after getting out of bed while dancing.
"I've heard of sleepwalking, but this is ridiculous." Dot commented.
