Chapter 4: Gone

That night, Laverne and her pixies landed in Ever After. She gave her eight pixies a green rose, and sent them off to the houses of the men she spied on. Each of the pixies flew to the homes of the men, and quietly snuck in.

All the men were fast asleep in bed, and the pixies blew the pollen of the green rose into their faces. After the pollen was in their faces, the men woke up, and their eyes turned a sickly looking green color.

They got out of bed, left their houses, and went to Laverne's helicopter. She looked up, and saw her pixies leading the men to her. She stood up and smiled evilly. "Hello, boys." she said to them. "Hello, my true love." said they all said.

"Come, we have to get home now." said Laverne. They got into her helicopter, and flew up to the sky.

The next morning, the wives and girlfriend were a bit surprised when their husband and boyfriend weren't in bed beside them. When they weren't in the house or hotel, they figured they just went to work early.

"My dad wasn't home when we woke up, it's so weird." said Jake, while all the kids were at school. "That's weird, my dad wasn't in my house either." said Spice. "My dad's gone too." said Maria. Then Rain walked into the room.

"Hey Rain, have you seen your dad this morning?" asked Owen. "No, I figured he and Uncle Daring went on an outing." Rain answered. "My dad never said anything about an outing, but maybe that's what they did." said Maria.

Suddenly, a ball of pink light flew into the room, and Mrs. Godmother appeared. "Good morning, children." she said. "Good morning, Mrs. Godmother." said the kids. As school went on, the thought of their fathers went to the back of their heads.

That afternoon, Apple, Raven, Bunny, Ginger, Blondie, Ashlynn, Poppy, and Darling were starting to worry. They weren't answering their cell phones, and they weren't at work. On her break, Ginger went by Hopper's pet store but he wasn't there.

Bunny walked by Alistair's bookstore, but he wasn't there either. Blondie called Humphrey's office, but his boss said he never showed up. Ashlynn went by the vet clinic, but Hunter wasn't there either.

Poppy went by the community center, but didn't find Sparrow. Apple met Raven at the hospital and asked if she'd seen Daring. When Raven said she didn't she asked if she's seen Dexter, but Apple didn't know either.

And Darling looked all over Ever After, but didn't find Chase. Worried, the ladies went to the police station. Kitty was at her desk typing up a report, when her boss, the police chief came to her.

"Cheshire, you got a bunch of ladies here to see you." he said. "What?" asked Kitty confused, then she saw her friends coming towards her. "Apple, Ginger, what's going on?" she asked a bit overwhelmed.

"It's Humphrey he's gone." said Blondie. "So is Chase." added Darling. "And Hunter too." said Ashlynn. "Please, calm down." said Kitty. The women took a couple of deep breathes, and told Kitty that their husbands and boyfriend had disappeared.

"Now you know they're not official missing until 48 hours." said Kitty. "But Kitty, you know them. They're not where they usually are, and they're not answering their cell phones." said Poppy. Kitty took a deep breath, and finally spoke.

"All right, Officer Cheshire is on the case." said Kitty. The moms went to the school, picked up their kids, and took them all out. "What's going on, Mom?" asked Maria. "Is something bad happening?" asked Rain.

"Kids, all your fathers have disappeared." said Apple. All the kids were shocked, their dads had just vanished. "But where'd they go?" asked Winter. "And why?" asked Jake. "We don't know where or why, but Officer Cheshire has taken the case." explained Ashlynn.

"Will she find them?" asked Griffin. "I'm sure she will." said Poppy.

News of the missing men spread quickly among Ever After, Rosabella excused the kids' whose fathers were missing from school, and friends of the missing victims made sure they had their support.

Kitty was put in charge of the case, she had CSIs search for any clues about where they could've gone or why. The mothers and Darling who suffered greatly. Apple felt like a part of her was missing without Daring by her side in the throne room.

Raven missed Dexter, without him around the household wasn't the same. Bunny wasn't her usual cheerful self with Alistair. Ashlynn was heartbroken without her huntsman with her. Poppy had a hard time smiling without Sparrow, luckily Holly was there to help her with her kids.

Ginger was so upset about Hopper being missing, she didn't even feel like baking. Without Humphrey around Blondie's life wasn't just right. And Darling just sat in her hotel room. She could've been out seizing the day, but what good was that when she didn't have Chase to share it with.

The situation really upset the kids too, they didn't know where their fathers were or if they were even okay, and they missed them. Maria missed her father, and how he always took care of her and her mother.

Rain missed how her dad would talk and do things with her. Winter missed how her father would read her a bedtime story before she went to sleep, or tell her new riddles. Jake missed how he and his dad would go on nature walks, and teach him about animals.

Griffin and Fern missed playing around with their father, and how he'd play music for them, even baby Zack cried more often. Spice missed having her dad around, he was always there to cheer her up when she was sad, but when she needed him most he wasn't there.

And Owen felt like his whole world had been turned upside down, without his dad there to talk to him, spend time with him, or just being there nothing felt right.
