Hey everyone! Thanks again for reading my stories. I hope you had as much fun reading as I did writing. Well, I decided to write a sequel to one of my many favorite episodes, The Blue Knight. Enjoy!
It was a warm day in LazyTown. The sun was shining, the sky was clear and everyone was waiting to see Sportacus's airship return. Even Robbie Rotten. He was spying when he heard Elena was sick and Sportacus whisked her away. He paced in his lair for a while and decided to wait for any news before assuming the worst. He even looked around for his Elena. The one from his imagination but she didn't show.
He was still mad at himself. He let Sportacus and Elena in. Even the kids to a certain degree. No! This was unacceptable. He wasn't sure he could deal with Sportanerd being a friend. Blah! But if he was going to be friends with Elena, then he'd at least have to tolerate Sportaflippity flop. Everything was changing.
"This isn't right! If I try to get rid of the blue kangaroo, I make Elena sad! What's a villain to do? I can't just just give up being myself. It's good to be bad!" He brought his hands up and growled. "Maybe I need a change of scenery." He exited his lair via some new chutes he had installed, and came up near the sports field. He walked over and started pacing near one of the high walls. As he paced he occasionally glanced up to the sky looking for the airship.
He decided pacing was too much work so he changed to sitting on a bench. He did notice that since the absence of Sportacus, the kids were quieter. It was almost disturbing. He had nothing to complain about and that angered him. He got up and marched around looking for the noisy brats. It was harder to find them when they were quiet. He took his fingers and pulled his ear out to see if he could hear them. "Nothing? They didn't leave me alone again, did they?"
He extended his ear once more. He heard a hint of something. He walked, following the chatter. It was still not loud enough to disturb him. He followed it all the way to Pixels house. Then he heard nothing again. He found a ladder and climbed up to the open window where he saw all the kids halfheartedly keeping themselves occupied. Pixel staring at his monitor not playing a game, Stingy asleep on the sofa, Ziggy was pushing a car with his finger, across the table, board, and Stephanie and Trixie were watching the TV, which was off.
He climbed down. "Do my eyes deceive me? They are being lazy? Doing nothing? It's quiet." He moved from the left to the right. "Nothing! Not even a mouse." With somewhat of an accomplished grin and a tug on his vest, he felt good. Sort of. Why should he be upset? This is the way it should be. LazyTown is lazy. But now it felt unnatural. He needed something to complain about. Every day he, always complained about the noise, trying to get LazyTown back to peace and quiet. But now, after all this time it was, and he couldn't stand it.
"What is wrong with me? This is what I want! Why am I not happy?" He growled again. "No one to play tricks on. That's it! They need to get into trouble! Then the blue elf will rescue them and everything will be back to normal!"
Then without thinking, he marched into Pixels house. The door swung open, startling the kids. "What do you think you're doing?" Ziggy was about to answer but Robbie raised a finger. "You need to get outside! Now!"
They all looked at him, surprised at the words coming out of his mouth. "You shouldn't be in here pushing a toy car, starting at TVs and computers! Now get out! Go!" And he started shooing them out.
"What's happened to Robbie? Is he ok?" Ziggy asked.
"I think he's finally gone off the deep end." Trixie commented.
"You too." Robbie pushed Pixel and Stephanie out the door. They turned and looked at him. "What do you want? An engraved invitation?"
"That's it!" Stephanie hollered. "I know what we can do! Let's hold a surprise party for Elena for when they get back! We can decorate it with streamers, and a banner, music, cake and sports candy!" All the kids cheered. Stephanie designated jobs for everyone.
"Thanks Robbie! We've been trying to figure out what we can do for them!"
"What?! You mean you weren't-you were just thinking? What have I done?"
"Don't worry Robbie, we miss them too." She looked at him. "Hey! Would you like to make a cake?"
"You...want my help?"
"Of course! I know Elena would like it if you did. Ok?"
He studdered. "I-I-I-would be happy to."
"Great! See you soon, Robbie!"
"I'll make the most impressive cake anybody has ever seen! To the lair!" He stepped on a sewer grate, stuck his foot out and stepped on part of the ground that popped up a lever. He pulled the lever, looked down but nothing happened. He pulled it several times. Nothing. "Must need-OIIIIIIIIIIILLLLLLLL!" He hollered as the grate unexpectedly opened and he fell through the chute, landing on his orange chair. "It's cake time!"
Sportacus had Loquia on his lap again while he peddled back to LazyTown. Elena sat on the floor next to the flypod, sipping a smoothie, Sportacus made. Loquia insisted on one as well. She loved watching him make them and making the sports candy fly all over the ship. He leaned over and kissed her forehead. His eyebrows furrowed for a moment then he shrugged it off.
"What is it?" Elena asked.
"What is what?"
"That is the fifth time you've done that."
"What?"
"Got that weird look on your face and shrugged it off."
He turned his head. " I honestly don't know. I felt it before we left, a few times. It's just a weird feeling. I-" he was suddenly aware, while his head was turned towards Elena, Loquia was looking in his ear. He just shook his head and Elena giggled. He slowly turned to face Loquia. "May I ask what you're doing?" He asked, grinning.
"I'm hungry." She replied.
"Oh. What would you like?"
Elena smirked.
"Bananas."
"Sweety, I told you, the bananas only happen when poppy's around."
Loquia, disappointed, looked out the window when she felt something drop at her side. "A banana!" She yelled, excitedly, giving Sportacus a hug. "Thank you, daddy!" She said as she peeled it.
A surprised Sportacus looked at Elena who had an innocent look on her face.
"What? You're the one with the bananas, not me."
"Loquia, would you excuse me for a minute or two?" He set Loquia aside and stood up. Elena got up and ran. "You mother needs to know what time it is." He jumped out of the flypod and landed feet from her.
"Is it tickle o'clock, daddy?"
"You bet it is!" He held a confident smile.
"Yay!" Loquia cheered. "Get her daddy!"
"Who's side are you on?" She laughed. Sportacus bolted for her. She screamed and ran to one side then the other. She backed up as he hand sprung towards her. She went down and rolled almost getting caught. She was fast but he was faster and there wasn't much space to run. She evaded his grasp for a few minutes then he spun on his heel, caught her arm, spun her into his arms and gave her a kiss. Then he bagan tickling her relentlessly.
After a few minutes he stopped and looked in her eyes. "Do you give up?"
She looked at him and smiled. "Never." She whispered.
"I see LazyTown!" Loquia shouted.
Sportacus got up and helped Elena up. They walked over and looked through the windows. "Home at last. Well, how do you feel, my wife to be?"
"Like I am the luckiest woman in the world, my husband to be."
Sportacus gave Elena a kiss and got back in the flypod with Loquia. "Ok everyone. Let's go home."
At the castle of the Blue Knight, there were two swords stuck in the stones as they have for many years. Around the castle a rumble could be heard. The stone that had the Purple Knights sword began to glow. It glowed blindingly bright, then vanished.
The Blue Knights sword, atop the castle, began to vibrate violently, as if someone were trying to take it. Then it stopped. It was calm for a few minutes then, intermittently, the jewel on the hilt started to weakly, pulsate, calling out to one who would answer the call.
