'Snuffy shook the feeling of the bang off him only to watch in horror as a jet falls off and crashed to the ground, breaking upon impact.'
He pushed the memory from his mind. He regretted breaking the statue. It was an accident=but he could not the story out of his mind at all. Deliveries had not helped distract him at all.
Sighing, he decided to go and talk to Brenda Blue about how he felt. But at that moment, his radio was heard coming into life and he jumped.
"Snuffy? Prince Duffy requested you and the other jets to head to Skylandia to help fix the statue." Brenda explained.
"Alright we'll be on our way Brenda Blue!" Promised Snuffy.
...
Several minutes later, Snuffy, Jay Jay, Herky and Tracy were at Skylandia.
"Ah! Good to see you all back!" Beamed the prince. "Now, to fix the statue, I've decided to put you all in pairs. Lady Stacey, you will go with Herky; Perky, your partner is Tracy; Jay Jay you will be working with Big Jocko; and Snuffy- you will be paired with Count Winger."
That seemed reasonable to start with. Snuffy and Count Winger, along with the prince, were in charge of ensuring that the Skylandian glue was sticky enough, and also to check where the jet will be replaced.
Jay Jay and Big Jocko had to hammer out dents, Lady Stacey and Herky were assigned to polish the jet, and Tracy and Perky were in charge of ensuring rivets were in properly and hammering them in if they were not.
...
However, about fifteen minutes later, the castle grounds were in uproar. "You're not meant to hit so hard Jay Jay -you'll dent it from the other side!" Big Jocko told him crossly.
"Alright," huffed Jay Jay.
"No, no, no! Herky you're meant to polish all the jet- not just the scratches!" Lady Stacey fussed.
"So? The statue's not meant to have scratches on it, so we're getting rid of them!" Retorted Herky.
"Silence!" Called the prince. Everyone stopped working.
"I want this statue fixed- and I'm sure you do too. So I want you all to compromise- each of you must take your partner's feelings into account and work together. But first, I want you to apologize- nothing says starting anew like putting arguments aside."
So all the planes apologised and they worked together to get the job done.
...
A few hours and a lot of hard work later, they lifted the jet back where it belonged. It hung in pride of place from the planes' wing. It looked grand and good as new. One could never tell that it had ever been broken at all.
And from that broken statue, the planes had learned about the importance of compromise and teamwork.
