Once Saul left, I put on the straw hat that he gave me, noting it was a cross between red and pink. Then I set off towards the Flowerbed where Clara stood in front of it looking fairly sour. The Flowerbed was completely destroyed, the soil was falling out and it was mostly broken into pieces.

"Ivlet destroyed my Flowerbed." Clara complained. "I need some Bricks to repair it. . ."

"I'll help you with the repairs!" I told her confidently.

"What? You'll help with the repairs to the Flowerbed?" she asked in surprise.

"Of course, that's what friends are for!" I told her. She wasn't that much older than me, and Victor and I had always had fun playing with her. Once she got the job with the Flowerbed, we hardly saw her anymore.

"Thank you!" Clara said with joy. "There may be some Bricks at the Zoo."

I walked to the Zoo, amazed by the idea that Kenneth might have some Bricks to help out with Clara. For I had been running around so much that I wondered if I was ever going to stop going back and forth between everyone.

Kenneth walked up to me as I reached the Zoo and talked to me in his normal cheery voice, as if no damage had ever happened. "Hey hey hey! Hello-hello-hello! If it isn't young Kaci! What're you up to today?"

"I would like some Bricks to help repair the Flowerbed!" I told him.

"So you want some Bricks to repair the Flowerbed. That's all well and good. . ."

"That's great!" I told him happily.

"I mean, I do have some Bricks." Kenneth told me, making me realize what damage the Zoo was in. He'd need the Bricks as well. "But I need them to repair my own Zoo."

"Well, then what can Clara do if you can't give her bricks?" I asked him, shaking my head.

"Ah, I know!" he said, surprising me a bit. "We just need to make some more Bricks!"

"How do we do that?" I asked.

"Bricks are made from Clay." Kenneth began. "You mold it into blocks, then let them dry out and harden. If you can bring me some Clay, I'll teach you how! This is what Clay smells like." He gave me a sample of Clay that I smelled and remembered. "You should be able to find some Clay out in Jade Fields."

"Thanks for the help!" I said.

"Take care now!" he responded.

I ran to Jade Fields where I found a Tangerine, caught a Green Banded Swallowtail and then the Clay.

"Ah, so this must be Clay." I head Beat say. "Let's take it back to Kenneth!"

I went back to Kenneth where he greeted me warmly. "Hey hey hey! Hello-hello-hello! If it isn't young Kaci!" I was starting to wonder if he was going to ask me 'what're you up to today' question. "Did you find any Clay?" he asked instead.

"I did!" I said, handing him the Clay.

"Hey hey! Tha-tha-thank you! This is some fine Clay! Looks like it's time to make some Bricks!" he gave me half of the clay and showed me how to make bricks. "Knead, knead, and knead some more. . . Work it, work it, over and under. . . Shape it into a block and leave it to dry!"

While we waited, Kenneth showed me all the empty spaces of the Zoo where the animals had been. I wondered if he would ever be able to find all the animals, or even one of them. I'd never been in the Zoo before, so I didn't exactly know how tame they were before Ivlet cast a spell on them.

Then Kenneth and I came back out to see how the bricks did, and they had fully dried. They had kept they're shape and looked good.

"Nicely done, even if I do say so myself!" Kenneth said, looking them over and then handing them to me. "I'm sure Clara will be overjoyed!"

I danced with happiness and ran over to Clara, handing her the bricks. She certainly was overjoyed.

"Thank you! Now I can repair the Flowerbed!" Clara said happily.

"Let me help you!" I told her.

"What? You're offering to help?"

I danced with joy, singing, "Of course I am!"

With my help, I'd have to say we finished making the Flowerbed pretty quickly. When we were finished, it looked as if Ivlet had never destroyed it in the first place, everything was perfectly set together.

Clara said, "Thanks to you I've managed to repair the Flowerbed! Thank you so much!" She took 200G out of her pocket and gave it to me. "Have you heard? The Fashion House is in a bad shape, thanks to Ivlet. I really loved that shop, too. . . All the cute clothes and accessories they had there. . ."
