Names And An Attack

A few days later, Smurfwillow was giving the twins their bubble bath.

When two smurflings ran up to her, one of which tripped over his own stocking feet.

The female smurfling by his side helped him up.

"Oh, gosh," the little boy smurfling said. "thanks, Stormy."

"Don't mention it, Clumsy, you're my best friend... that's why I'm here." Smurfstorm said.

"Stormy! Clumsy! What are you doing here?" Smurfwillow asked.

"Brainy is being a smurfhead about the rules of Smurfball again!" Smurfstorm told Smurfwillow.

"And on top of that," Clumsy added. "he threw our smurfball over here somewhere."

"May we pretty please go look for it?" Smurfstorm asked Smurfwillow.

"Yes you may, but do not wander too far," Smurfwillow told Smurfstorm and Clumsy. "because, tonight, the twins will learn to speak the words of the smurfs for the very first time."

"Golly! We wouldn't want to miss that for the world!" Clumsy exclaimed.

Clumsy and Smurfstorm took off in search for their lost smurfball.

A few hours later at a clearing near their village, Papa Smurf set his babies on a mushroom pedestal.

Moonlight from the blue moon hit the baby smurflings and they began to speak.

"Dre... drea... dreamer!" the twins shrieked.

Papa Smurf and Smurfwillow took their son and daughter off the pedestal.

The older generations wearing yellow, the proud parents in red, and the other smurflings in white like the twins could never have imagined the word that had been uttered by the babies as a first word.

"We will call our daughter," Smurfwillow said to Papa. "Smurfdream."

"And," Papa added. "We will call our son, the youngest of our twins... Dreamy."

Smurfdream and Dreamy looked whimsically at their mother and father.

That night after returning to their mushroom hut, Papa tucked Smurfdream and Dreamy into their cradles for bedtime while Smurfwillow was getting the twins each a bottle of milk ready.

When suddenly, Alchemist Smurf entered the hut where Papa, Smurfwillow, Smurfdream, and Dreamy lived.

"Papa Smurf, Smurfwillow! The village is being attacked by an evil wizard named Gargamel and his cat, Azrael!" Alchemist exclaimed.

"Are you sure?" Papa asked Alchemist in concern.

"Yes! Everysmurf's been captured!" Alchemist answered.

Smurfwillow came into the bedroom with the bottles, "What does Gargamel want with us anyway, Al?" she asked.

"My guess is," Alchemist answered Smurfwillow. "he and his cat want to cook us and eat us!"

"Smurfs alive!" Smurfwillow exclaimed.

"How terrible! We have to save them!" Papa exclaimed in agreement.

Once the catapult was loaded with smurfberry pies, the smurfs and smurfettes who were free began to fire them off.

Gargamel and Azrael were covered in smurfberries and pink cream from the pies.

Alchemist, Baker, Papa, and Smurfwillow set caged smurfs free while the wizard looked at his messed up clothing.

"You vile blue beasts will pay dearly for this! Come on, Azrael!" Gargamel swore.

Gargamel and Azrael quickly ran back to their hovel.

Once Gargamel and Azrael were out of sight, Smurfwillow turned to Papa.

"What are we going to do, Darling," Smurfwillow asked worriedly. "oh, what are we going to do?"

"There is only one thing we can do," Papa told Smurfwillow seriously. "we must relocate to separate forests and found separate villages."

"Relocate to separate forests and found separate villages," Smurfwillow asked. "but what about Smurfdream and Dreamy?"

"Trust me... it is better that Dreamy doesn't know anything about Smurfdream," Papa told Smurfwillow sounding serious at the same time sounding sad. "and it is better that Smurfdream doesn't know anything about Dreamy."

"I know you're right, Dear," Smurfwillow said to Papa. "but how will we pull it off?"

"You take the girls and settle somewhere secret... like the Forbidden Forest," Papa recommended to Smurfwillow. "while I settle elsewhere in the Smurf Forest with the boys."
