The Clark siblings were at the Fudo household as one of their usual visits and where Tony scoffed as he saw one of Vincent's portraits of the stuffed animals from Winnie the Pooh.
"Has anyone seen my pink?" Vincent asked. "I'm almost done with Piglet."
Snow White carried a tube in her mouth for him.
"Thanks, Snow." Vincent smiled to his cat and took the tube and put the paint on his brush for Piglet.
"You are so lame." Tony smirked as he thought someone painting a portrait of stuffed animals was lame.
"Excuse me?" Vincent glared slightly.
"Tony..." Lee scolded his youngest brother.
"Don't you know anything?" Tony scoffed to Vincent. "Winnie the Pooh is for babies!"
"He is real and so are the others." Vincent said.
Tony scoffed. "You guys are weird, I mean, your dad likes singing and dancing ponies and you talk about the Care Bears all the time, Estelle I'd understand, but it's pathetic when you guys do it too."
"Tony, stop it!" Megan scolded.
Felicity soon came over with a basket of goodies for her cousins and their friends, she smiled, but she soon frowned as she heard Tony and Vincent arguing about Winnie the Pooh.
"I even thought they were for babies one time before actually meeting them." Vincent sad.
"Oh, really?" Tony smirked.
"Yes, really!" Vincent huffed. "Uncle JJ and Aunt Rosie read us a storybook one night!"
"Then your aunt and uncle are a couple of babies." Tony mocked.
"Hey, leave Uncle JJ alone, he's Mom's special little buddy!" Akito got in his face with a glare.
"May I continue?" Vincent asked.
"What's going on?" Felicity asked.
"Tony here is dissing on Winnie the Pooh." Vincent put his hands on his hips.
Felicity gasped. "Tony! He is a great bear and you'd be lucky to meet him!"
"Why? So he can tell me where my nose is?" Tony smirked.
Lee soon taped Tony's mouth shut. Tony muffled and then glared at his brother Lee.
"I loved those stories from Uncle JJ and Aunt Rosie..." Vincent bowed his head in nostalgia. "I didn't think I'd like them at first... And then we had a grand adventure and had to save Christopher Robin."
This seemed to interest Tony a little bit.
"Please tell us when your first adventure started." Megan begged.
"Well, of course, we were little," Vincent replied as they all decided to sit down. "Long before we met you all..."
Flashback to when the kids were seven and eight...
Atticus and Mo decided to have a date night together, but of course, they would need a babysitter, and even Cherry and Forte were busy, so they had to call someone else over: Mo's little brother who was 'the best uncle ever next to Uncle Planet'.
"Hey, Momo," Junior smiled to his big adoptive sister as he was with a young blonde girl his age who brought a storybook over. "I brought Rosie along, I hope that's okay."
"Of course it is and I see she's brought a storybook with her." Mo smiled.
"Oh, yes, I love fairy tales..." Rosie smiled back. "Especially about trolls." she then said, seeming to somehow remember her adventure in Central Park with her older brother Gus and them and of course, Stanley.
Atticus and Mo both soon left. The kids said goodbye to their parents.
"All right, kids, let's have some fun!" Junior smiled to his niece and nephews.
"Yay!" Akito, Estelle, and Vincent cheered.
"What should we do first?" Estelle smiled.
"Why don't we play some games?" Rosie suggested.
The kids first played games, they then had some dinner, they then watched TV together until there was a thunderstorm which knocked the power out. Junior soon brought out candles and they all sat together.
"I suppose now would be a good time for your story." Rosie suggested as she brought out the book she brought.
"Yay!" The Fudo siblings cheered.
"Can we hear about the story of when you met a troll in Central Park?" Vincent asked.
"You've heard that story so many times already." Rosie giggled.
"Can we hear a story about the Tangerine Bear?" Akito asked.
"I'm afraid Christmas is too far away." Rosie smiled apologetically.
"Can we hear a story about Winnie the Pooh?" Estelle asked before hugging her Princess Odette doll.
"But that story's for babies." Vincent said.
Estelle pouted.
"Yeah, Estelle." Akito agreed.
"Oh, come on now, Winnie the Pooh is a wonderful story..." Rosie smiled to the kids.
"Well...Alright." Akito said while Vincent groaned.
Rosie cracked open her book with a smile. "'Once upon the last day of a golden summer, there was a boy and a bear'," she began to read the book. "'The boy, whom we shall meet in a moment was called Christopher Robin. The bear was called Winnie the Pooh. And together, they had many grand adventures in a remarkable place called the Hundred Acre Wood. But the grandest and most extraordinary of all their adventures was still to begin'."
Something from the book soon fell out and rolled over to Vincent it was a medallion. Vincent took a look while Akito and Estelle seemed distracted from the book. He then picked up the medallion curiously. The medallion soon glowed an autumn-like glow, blinding him slightly. Vincent's emerald eyes widened and he then shut them as Rosie told the story.
Soon enough, Vincent opened his eyes and he appeared to be outside somewhere that was not his own home. "Akito? Estelle?" he then called out for his younger twin siblings before running around to find them. "Come on, guys, whatever spell you guys put on me, it's not funny!" Vincent soon saw where he was and he couldn't believe it.
"I'm in the Hundred Acre Wood... But how...?" Vincent asked as he was alone right now. "Man, I just entered The Baby Zone."
He soon saw he was wearing the medallion he picked up earlier.
"This must have sent me here...Great." Vincent groaned.
There was humming heard and Vincent turned to the source as a yellow bear in a red short-sleeved shirt was climbing over a turned over tree trunk.
'I might as well get this over with.' Vincent thought to himself before going over to the yellow bear.
The bear hummed before falling flat on the ground and chuckled. "Oh, hello there!"
"Hi..." Vincent rolled his eyes.
"I say I've never seen you in the Hundred Acre Woods before." The yellow bear said.
"My name's Vincent, I'm kind of staying here for a little while," Vincent said before whispering to himself. "Hopefully not long."
"They call me Winnie the Pooh!" The yellow bear announced with glee and chuckled. "Hmm... I wonder if I should get some honey before Christopher Robin gets here?" he then went to the nearest tree.
"I hope a bee stings him..." Vincent muttered in annoyance of being stuck here. He then remembered that bees would attack anyone in sight if their honey was taken in that world.
"Today, I believe, is a good day for being Pooh." Pooh smiled as he was headed for a tree to meet his human best friend.
'As long as I'm here, I might as well be involved.' Vincent thought to himself as he went to the tree.
Pooh hummed to himself along the way as Vincent followed against his will.
"And here, I should say, is a good place for being Pooh," Pooh said once he found the tree. "Any reason that I think of is a good one for being Pooh," he then sat down and giggled to himself. "But the very best reason of all is-"
"Pooh Bear!" A voice called out.
'There's only one boy I know who would call Pooh 'Pooh Bear', that must be Christopher Robin.' Vincent thought to himself.
Pooh soon announced that being with his very best friend was the best thing. Vincent turned over and saw Christopher Robin was coming over just then.
"You are just in time for the best part of the day." Pooh smiled to the human boy as he stood on top of the branch.
"And what might that be, Pooh?" Christopher Robin asked. "And who's your new friend?"
"This is Vincent," Pooh smiled simply. "And as for what be the best part of the day is when you and me become we."
"What am I doing here?" Vincent complained about being stuck in the Hundred Acre Wood.
Christopher Robin carried Pooh in his arms but seemed to back up slightly off balance to the edge off the cliff and they soon rolled and tumbled down the hill. Vincent soon went down the hill to keep up with them.
"Pooh, there's something I have to tell you." Christopher Robin frowned as he set the yellow stuffed bear on the ground once they stopped tumbling.
"Is it something nice?" Pooh asked before he was distracted by a butterfly.
"Not exactly..." Christopher Robin sighed softly as he was sure this was going to be hard on his friends.
"Then it can wait!" Pooh replied before he chased after the butterfly.
"It can?" Christopher Robin asked. "For how long?"
"Forever and ever." Pooh replied as he chased the butterfly through the forest.
"What did you have to tell Pooh?" Vincent asked Christopher Robin.
Christopher Robin sighed softly. "Tomorrow is the first day of autumn and that means I have to go to school."
"Oh..." Vincent frowned as that was going to be sad news to Pooh and the others.
"Surely you know..." Christopher Robin said since Vincent was school aged too.
"Oh, well, um, my education is different..." Vincent replied. "I'm actually home-schooled, so my education never really stops most of the time, unless I'm away visiting friends."
"It's going to be hard on Pooh and the others..." Christopher Robin sighed. "I don't think they would understand."
"Well, we'll worry about that later, right now, let's spend time with Pooh." Vincent said.
"I suppose so..." Christopher Robin sighed sadly.
Tony muffled to the others.
"What?" Akito asked after he took off the tape.
"OW!" Tony winced before glaring. "You guys used to be home-schooled? No wonder you're all a bunch of freaks!"
Akito narrowed his eyes and put the tape back on. "Go on, Vincent."
"Anyway, me and Christopher Robin both soon caught up with Pooh to spend enough time with him with some singing." Vincent said.
"Come on, Christopher Robin, we better catch up." Vincent decided.
"Okay..." Christopher Robin sighed softly as he felt bad about leaving his friends like this, but his mother told him that education was important.
"Forever and ever is a very long time, Pooh~" Christopher Robin sang as he and Vincent began to look for the yellow stuffed bear.
Pooh giggled innocently as he was hiding right now while Vincent began to climb up some trees. "Forever, Isn't long at all, When I'm with you~"
Once Vincent and Christopher Robin found Pooh they went to get going.
"I wanna call your name forever, And you will always answer forever~" Pooh sang as the boys followed after him. "And both of us will be forever you and me, Forever and ever~"
The two of them soon looked through a log.
"I wanna stay like this forever~" Christopher Robin sang.
They soon heard Pooh's giggles come from some honey pots. Vincent winced at first at the honey jars as it made him feel more and more trapped here. Why couldn't had this been one of Barbie's stories?
"If only I could promise forever~" Christopher Robin sighed as he checked one pot which was empty. "Then we could just be we, Forever you and me~"
"Forever and ever~" Christopher Robin and Pooh said together.
Vincent and Christopher Robin both soon backed up at the entrance of a cave.
"Forever and ever, Is a very long time, Pooh~" Christopher Robin sighed.
Pooh giggled as he soon came out with a giant pot. "Forever isn't long at all, Christopher~"
Vincent heard buzzing inside the cave and soon ran as bees swarmed out. They soon ran towards a boat raft.
"When I'm with you, Oh, I wanna be with you forever~" Pooh giggled as he ran onto the raft with the boys to get away from the bees.
And where they had successfully did it, Christopher Robin and Vincent both soon turn around to see that Pooh wasn't there anymore only to see the honey pot and they knew where he was. Christopher Robin folded his arms and shook his head at the silly old bear. Vincent quietly chuckled as Pooh was inside of the pot and eating all of the honey. Pooh soon popped out through the pot. Christopher Robin and Pooh soon shared a hug together.
"What am I doing here?" Vincent groaned. "This is worse than Barney the Dinosaur."
'You shall know the answer soon, young one.' A voice said.
Vincent looked around for the source of the voice.
'Where did that voice come from?' Vincent thought to himself.
'Surely you recognize me, Vincent.' The voice replied.
Vincent looked around for the voice as Christopher Robin and Pooh bonded. 'Who is that voice?' he thought to himself again.
There was soon a giggle heard.
Vincent looked around until he came to what looked like a symbol of a red star with sparkling other white stars. "Looks like Aunt Twilight's cutie mark..." he then observed.
"Indeed it does!" Flurry Heart giggled as she jumped on Vincent's shoulders.
"Flurry Heart?" Vincent asked, recognizing her from his father's stories.
Flurry Heart giggled and hung her head upside down while looking into his green eyes with her violet eyes. "Hello, funny head!"
Vincent soon fell slightly as Flurry Heart got off his back and waved her wings to keep herself in the air.
"Aunt Twilight says you're here to learn a lesson." Flurry Heart told Vincent.
"What lesson am I supposed to learn here?" Vincent asked the young alicorn princess.
"You'll find out." Flurry Heart said before disappearing.
"Don't leave me here!" Vincent begged. "This place is for babies!" His voice soon echoed. "GAAAAUGH!" he groaned and then fell to the ground as he was trapped here with no way out.
Soon enough, the sun was setting, and Vincent had to admit that the sunset was beautiful.
"Oh, so colorful..." Vincent smiled as his artist side flared up. He soon saw Christopher Robin and Pooh were making their way back to the tree. He stared at the sky as he thought it would make a lovely picture, but he soon shook his head and chased after Christopher Robin and Pooh to see what they were up to.
"This story is boring," Tony complained. "I thought you guys did something exciting!"
Lee soon taped Tony's mouth shut again and made sure he didn't take it off. Tony glared as he hated this.
"I know, it sounds cutesy right now, but it actually kinda gets scary after that night." Vincent replied.
This suddenly got Tony interested.
"But there were three things we would have to remember later on." Vincent said.
"Three things?" Megan asked.
Vincent nodded and he then continued his story.
"And so they stayed together, doing all the things a boy and a bear could do," Rosie's voice narrated. "And when the day began to end, Christopher Robin had quite forgotten he still had something to tell Pooh."
"Pooh Bear," Christopher Robin said to his best friend. "There's one thing we didn't do today."
"And what was that?" Pooh asked.
"Oh, nothing." Christopher Robin said.
"Nothing? Christopher Robin, Vincent, what is nothing?" Pooh asked them.
"Well, I'm told it means going along, listening to all the things you can't hear, and not bothering." Christopher Robin replied.
"It's when people say 'What are you two doing?' and you say 'Oh, nothing.', and you do it." Vincent added.
"This is sort of a nothing we're doing right now." Christopher Robin added.
"Mom gets mad at me if I'm doing nothing," Vincent chuckled. He soon saw that now was the time to joke as Christopher Robin looked like he was going to say something. "Eh... Sorry..." he smiled sheepishly.
Christopher Robin sighed as he leaned up against the trunk with his hands behind his head. "I wish it could last forever."
"Well, then we must do it again tomorrow and the tomorrow after and the tomorrow following that." Pooh replied.
Christopher Robin knew that this wasn't easy. "Pooh Bear," he spoke up softly. "What if... Someday, there came a tomorrow when we're apart?"
Pooh soon smiled and was distracted by fireflies. Vincent rolled his eyes as Pooh was easily distracted until he looked to the fireflies and smiled as it made him think of the Princess and the Frog story about Tiana and Prince Naveen.
"As long as we're apart together, I'm sure we'll be fine." Pooh smiled as he followed the fireflies.
"Yes, yes, of course," Christopher Robin replied as this was harder than he thought it would be since Pooh Bear wasn't the sharpest knife in the drawer. "But... If we weren't together if I were... Somewhere else?"
"Oh, but you really couldn't be, as I would be quite lost without you," Pooh replied as he caught a firefly in his paws before it flew him up in the air and soon flew out of sight and out of mind. "Who would I call on those days when I'm just not strong enough? Or... Brave enough?"
"Well, actually-" Christopher Robin tried.
"And who would I ask when I needed advice when I didn't know which way to go?" Pooh said as he tried catch the fireflies again.
"Pooh, we-" Christopher Robin tried again.
"We," Pooh replied as he then climbed again. "We simply wouldn't be..." he then suddenly yawned.
"Oh, Pooh..." Christopher Robin sighed to him before climbing up to be with the bear. "If ever there's a tomorrow when we're not together, there's something you must remember."
"And what might that be, Christopher Robin?" Pooh yawned.
"You're braver than you believe," Christopher Robin listed. "And stronger than you seem, and smarter than you think."
"That's easy to remember." Vincent said. His eyes then seemed to glow as those qualities would be important for later.
"It really is," Pooh giggled with Vincent. "You're braver than a bee, and, uh, longer than a tree, and taller than a goose! Or was it a moose?" he then looked like he was about to fall asleep.
"Uh-oh, looks like someone's falling asleep." Vincent smiled.
"No, silly old bear," Christopher Robin giggled to Pooh. "You're braver than you believe, and stronger than you seem, and smarter than you think," he then added one more thing. "But the most important thing is even if we're apart, I'll always be with you."
Pooh had soon fell asleep. Vincent soon yawned as he felt tired himself.
"I'll see both of you after school." Christopher Robin whispered to him as Vincent brought Pooh down from the tree to get him home.
"See you then." Vincent nodded as he then went to bring Pooh home to get some sleep and where it was easy to find.
Vincent put Pooh Bear in his pajamas and helped him into bed the way that his mother would to him and his siblings or how Estelle would with her baby dolls. He soon felt tired. He then looked to the couch and took out an extra pillow and blanket and decided to get some sleep as he had no other choice.
'Whatever lesson I'm supposed to learn here, I hope I learn it soon.' Vincent thought to himself. He soon yawned and fell asleep.
"And now, the adventure really begins..." Vincent's voice narrated.
"Finally." Tony's voice muffled.
