"First one with brain freeze wins, go!" Mindy called.
Cindy, Mindy, Princess, and Mushi then took deep and long sips of their frozen treats.
Cindy's eyes widened and she grabbed her head with a groan. "I win...!"
"Wow, Cindy, that was amazing!" Mindy smiled.
"How'd you do that?" Princess asked.
"Practice..." Cindy winced, holding her head in her hands. "Ugh... Now I feel like there's a jackhammer in my brain..."
"Hey, Earl," Flem pointed to Cindy. "I think we just found our new best friend."
"That girl Cindy?" Earl asked. "I dunno... She's kinda weird."
"She's also part of Mike's gang who also know about Chicken." Flem insisted, he was walking backwards and accidentally broke Yumi's guitar.
"MY GUITAR!" Yumi snapped.
"Oops." Flem chuckled nervously.
"Why I oughta-" Yumi snarled.
"Yumi, it was obviously an accident," Cindy stepped forward, then looked to Flem. "Did you mean to do that?"
"No, honest!" Flem replied.
"See?" Cindy said to Yumi. "Look, go to my dad's workshop, he can fix ANYTHING."
"I will, but first, he needs to be taught a lesson." Yumi growled.
Flem gulped. "Mommy..."
"He's gonna be in a hospital!" Earl cried for his best friend's life.
"I'm sorry, Yumi!" Flem cried.
"Oh, you're gonna be sorry when I'm done with you!" Yumi hissed.
Flem yelled out.
"GET BACK HERE!" Yumi started to chase him.
Cindy sighed, she then went back to her friends. "Sometimes I wonder why I get up in the morning..."
Earl looked at Cindy. "Hello."
"Um... Hi..." Cindy looked at him.
"I'm Earl, Chicken's best friend." Earl introduced himself.
"I think I've seen you around..." Cindy scratched her head in thought. "Aren't you with that weird kid Flem?"
"Yeah, we're both Chicken's best friends, but he hangs around Scott and Lightning all the time." Earl sounded sad.
"Oh, I'm sorry to hear that..." Cindy sounded empathetic.
"I'M SORRY, YUMI!" Flem yelled off-screen. "DON'T HURT ME! NO, NOT THE FACE! NOT THE FACE!"
Earl and Cindy winced as Flem was getting beaten up. Cindy looked away and covered her eyes while Earl looked like he was going to be rather sick.
"If you ever break my guitar again, you'll be in a casket," Yumi threatened as she grabbed Flem by his shirt. "GOT IT!?"
"Yes, of course, I'm very sorry!" Flem replied shakily with his hands up in self-defense.
Yumi growled and then dropped him. "Cindy, where's your dad's workshop?"
"Go down the street into the plaza center and you can find his office to the right in the lumber yard." Cindy informed.
"Thanks." Yumi nodded to her, then took her broken guitar to get fixed up.
Flem groaned in pain.
"Are you okay, Flem?" Earl asked.
"Could've been worse..." Flem said.
"Oh, my..." Cindy said, she then collected a few cookie dough bites that she didn't eat and handed them to him. "Here, why don't you take these?"
Flem took them and ate them. "Wow, thanks, Cindy."
"Sure, you seem like you could use it..." Cindy shrugged.
"Come on, Cindy, Daddy says the magicians are at our house and they brought their white tigers!" Princess called as she went to the door with Mushi and Mindy.
"Okay, I'll see you guys later then." Cindy said to Flem and Earl, then went along to join her new friends she was hanging out with for the day.
"That Cindy girl is so nice and thoughtful." Flem smiled.
"Tell me about it." Earl agreed.
