It was a lovely day for everybody and not only the rewards given to them from their magic training classes. There was also days with Atticus and Darla as he continued teaching her.
"Remember what I taught you." Atticus said to Darla as he was on his way to school while Mrs. Smith drove by the Fudo house in her minivan to pick up Darla to carpool with her, Amber, Annabelle, Anne-Marie, and the Chipettes to take them to school.
"I'll try, I guess.." Darla shrugged as she went into the car.
"I know you can do this, little sis." Atticus smiled.
Darla sighed and she took her seat in one of the backseats.
"Everybody buckled up?" Mrs. Smith smiled as Darla got inside and buckled up for their ride to school.
"Yes, Mrs. Smith." Darla replied to her best friend's mother.
Mrs. Smith nodded, then drove the car to take them to the middle school.
"Darla, what happened to you last night?" Brittany asked as she knelt over her seat to look to the blonde girl. "I was on call waiting for three hours!"
"My brother crushed my phone so I could pay attention." Darla told her.
"Oh, bummer..." Brittany said.
"You weren't paying attention?" Jeanette asked.
"Uh, my report card wasn't the best compared to Atticus's..." Darla shrugged.
"Oh, come on, your grades couldn't have been that bad." Eleanor smiled.
"Darla sighed as she stared out the window.
"She could use some help." Annabelle whispered to Amber and Jeanette who then nodded in agreement to her.
Atticus rushed over to the school as almost everybody was outside by the football field with eggs, baking soda, and other ingredients. "Am I too late?"
"No, hurry up and get to work, we've already started." Cherry said as she stood by and carried a clipboard.
"On it." Atticus said as he rushed off to get to work.
Cherry nodded as she looked over her clipboard. Atticus came to Mo's side as she was cracking eggs and filling a wheelbarrow with the whites and yolk. Atticus started to crack eggs as well, but being the strongest out of everyone, he did four eggs at a time without having to add in the egg shells to the mix. Mo smiled at his help as they put the eggs in place. Salem had come with Patch as the students were at work to cook the enormous pancake.
"Mm." Patch smiled, wanting to taste some of the ingredients that were eatable.
"Hmm, a bunch of high school students helping the poor working together to cook the largest money and they wonder why they're not allowed to vote." Salem shook his head at the activity.
"Come on, Salem," Sabrina said as she shoveled batter with Penelope. "We do something nice, it gets publicity, we focus attention on a worthy cause."
Patch began to try to take a bite from the batter.
"Don't even think about it, Spot." Penelope glared to the dalmatian puppy.
"It's Patch." Patch said before taking a bite out of the batter and then running off after swallowing his bite.
"Get back here!" Penelope chased him.
"Remind me again why did I have to bring him along?" Salem asked Sabrina.
"Your apprentice, I assumed?" Sabrina shrugged.
"Anyway, speaking of publicity," Salem said before looking around. "Where's Mr. Ace Reporter and his camera?"
"Harvey promised he'd be here," Sabrina replied as she set the shovel down on the ground and patted herself to look clean for her boyfriend. "He's taking a picture for the school paper." she then sneezed and got herself covered in flour.
Patch teleported to get away from Penelope to appear next to Salem and tried to not laugh at Sabrina for having all the flour covered on her. Penelope ended up stumbling and falling into a flour pile, she muffled and wiggled her legs as she was now stuck.
"Better," Salem smirked to Sabrina. "Much better..."
"Sabrina!" Harvey's voice called out as he rushed with his camera. "There you are!"
"Let's just hope he can be a photographer, do his science project, be on the basketball team while still being Sabrina's boyfriend." Patch whispered to Salem.
"I hear he's been so busy lately." Salem nodded in quiet agreement.
"Let's just hope Sabrina doesn't try to use magic to fix their relationship." Patch whispered.
"Only time will tell." Salem nodded in agreement as Sabrina and Harvey talked, but Sabrina could barely get a word in as Harvey was snapping photographs.
Atticus and Mo could see this and decided to try to get Harvey to pay attention to Sabrina.
"Listen to me, Harvey." Sabrina said after she struck a pose.
Harvey accidentally snapped a picture of her on his camera. "Not now, Sabrina!"
A student in a bulldozer was then going to flip the giant pancake.
"Harvey, I think the pancake can wait." Mo said.
"Not a good time..." Harvey looked up as the pancake was flying through the air now.
"See? That's my whole point!" Sabrina put her hands firmly on her hips. "It's never a good time!"
Then suddenly, the pancake squashed on top of her, Atticus, and Mo by accident.
"But there was a giant pancake coming straight at you." Harvey then replied.
Atticus using his full strength got the giant pancake off all three of them. "Gee, thanks for the warning." he then glared.
"You guys okay?" Harvey asked.
"We were just crushed under a giant pancake in front of the entire school, define 'okay'." Sabrina deadpanned.
"What a shot!" Harvey took their pictures. "Thanks for the picture, guys, gotta file my report." he then walked off into the school.
"That boy is unbelievable!" Mo groaned.
"I can see why Sabrina likes Harvey so much," Salem said as he walked over with Patch. "He's so dedicated to his work."
"Thanks for saving us, Atticus..." Sabrina said softly. "Oh, well, there's always the picnic."
"Yeah, unless he finds that plant he's been looking for." Atticus said.
"Oh, please, like a plant could keep him away from me." Sabrina smiled rather smugly.
"I bet 50 dollars Harvey takes the plant and then bikes away with it in his backpack." Patch whispered to Salem.
"I second that notion." Salem agreed.
"Wanna sneak into her backpack while she gets the picnic ready?" Patch whispered.
"Might as well, I'm gonna be able to eat something anyway." Salem agreed due to how busy Harvey's schedule was and he wouldn't have enough time to sit down and eat with Sabrina.
"Mind if I come along?" Patch asked.
"All right, but no shedding." Salem warned.
"Why does everybody keep saying that to me?" Patch scoffed as he followed the black cat.
Penelope got out of the flour mess. "I am going to kill that puppy!"
"Ahem!" Atticus cleared his throat.
"What do you want, Wiccan?" Penelope glared to him. She then suddenly felt the cold stare from Atticus glare as she began to feel how her father felt. "Stop looking at me like that..." she whimpered slightly, showing fear and was very bad at hiding it.
"Alright." Atticus said.
"Phew!" Penelope sounded relieved.
"I'm watching you..." Atticus warned. "Your dad might be the most powerful man in the universe, but he says I'm almost like a son to him, so don't think I'll be afraid of whatever he can do to me... I used to live with Lady Tremaine and her daughters."
"Well, that and you seem to be stronger and getting stronger than him everyday." Penelope said before covering her mouth.
"Oh, I do, do I...?" Atticus looked to her.
"Uh, I need to go." Penelope said before bolting off.
"Looks like we have an advantage against Drell." Cherry smirked.
"Cherry...?" Atticus glanced at his best friend.
"What harm could it do...?" Cherry twiddled her fingers innocently.
"Well, I guess it couldn't hurt." Atticus frowned, not seeing any problem with using his strength to their advantage.
Cherry laughed rather wickedly as she followed him.
"But don't let this turn you all evil." Atticus said, hearing that laugh.
"Evil? Me? Why, Atticus, I'm flabbergasted!" Cherry replied.
"Can you blame him for thinking you would turn evil after your certain laugh?" Mo asked.
"Oh, mind your own business, Mo..." Cherry rolled her eyes at the former street urchin.
Mo narrowed her eyes, then grabbed Cherry by her wrist and forced her am behind her back in a rather painful way.
"Waaaugh!" Cherry yelped in pain.
"Nice move." Atticus smiled.
"Thanks." Mo smirked back.
"Uncle! Uncle!" Cherry wailed.
"You heard her, Mo, let her go." Atticus smirked.
"Okaaaay!" Mo replied as she then let go of Cherry, then made the perky goth stumble against a wheelbarrow filled with eggs.
Cherry yelped and splatted, now in her own mess and looked up with a firm pout to her friends who just seemed to playfully smirk at her. "Very funny..." she lowly grumbled.
