King Jeiva's servants were dusting the castle when they come across a door. Inside, they found a spooky stairway to a maze. "Why aren't you working?" demanded King Jeiva as he spotted the door. "The Jeivan Labriynth hasn't been here in ages. My father, King Jeivlad, told me that this is where he sends the servants to if they disobeyed their orders."

This made the servants feel frightened, so they ran off. "I better get Zemunth," King Jeiva said to himself. "I figured out a way to stop those girls."

At Useka, the Covingtons were doing a little shopping. "This is lame," Mahi growled. "Why do we have to shop for furniture?"

"Because," Selma said, "your father has had his Parisian table in his office for years. It was his great-grandfather's. I figured that it was about time we get a new one."

"Whatever," Mahi grumbled. "Nothing lasts forever, anyway."

Rayne and Mahi looked at some blankets when they came across Peggy and her mother. They were wondering what they were doing here. "Don't tell anyone," said Peggy, "but we're getting knew blankets for my dad and Esme for Christmas."

"I barely celebrate Christmas," Mahi explained. "Usually I do Diwali. Every year, the guys light up trash can filled with trash."

"Isn't that illegal?" asked Peggy.

"Very illegal," Rayne replied. "But the Ferocidorks thought it was fun."

"Rayne, Mahi," informed Mrs. Covington, "we're going to check out the bedding department for some bedsheets. Please wait by the snack bar till we're done."

"Okay, Mrs. Covington," replied Rayne.

Elsie decided to take the twins and Cassie for some Useka Frozen Yogurt while they waited.

By the Useka snack bar, they were joined by Isadora and Addison. They said that there was a 80% off sale on bath towels. Addison thought about going because her grandmother needed some new bath towels. Also, she suspected it could be a fake after remembering the pilot episode of "Sailor Moon." Isadora recalled the pilot where a monster impersonated Naru's mom and tricked the girls into think that there was a 90% off sale at their family jewelry store. Rayne remembered giving away free ice cream on birthdays, town festivals, big events at their shop and when celebrities come to town, and Isadora remembered her aunt giving away free books when they overstocked and on Christmas.

"This is kind of weird," Peggy replied.

"Free shampoo!" shouted an odd-looking figure. "Get your free shampoo!" He squirted some shampoo all over a customer and ran off.

"Excuse me," Addison said. "We're here for the free bath towels. Is this some trick?"

"Yes, it is!" Zemunth shouted as he revealed his disguise and knocked them out with some sleeping shampoo.

Peggy woke up in a vast room, all alone. "Why does my hair smell like roadkill?" she asked Peggy. "And where is everyone?"

"Good evening, girls," announced King Jeiva. "Welcome to my servant labyrinth. I place all my disobedient servants here. No one EVER escapes."

"I remember the Labriynth from the legend of Theseus and the movie with David Bowie," Isadora said. "I mean, I loved his mismatch eyes and his thunderbolt makeup. It is nothing compared to Kiss's makeup. It sounds like the phrase 'Kiss and make up'."

"Enough!" shouted King Jeiva. "Try to escape my Jeivan dungeon keepers and perilful puzzles."

Peggy looked around and saw the drawings on the wall. They were like hieroglyphics. She remembered seeing a bunch of teenagers at the old dance theater performing "Anthony and Cleopatra" and had studied a little bit of them. She saw that the slaves were peeling potatoes and feeding them to the Jeivan horses. Behind them, there were wild horses eating the stable. Then she realized the puzzle was to see how brave they were to feed the horses. She picked up a potato, peeled it, and fed it to a horse. Then she did it to the other horses. "This is just like in petting zoos when you were a lass," she recalled Peggy. Behind her, the door was open and she was free.

Rayne found some steps that look like dance training mats. She quickly recognized it as hip-hop dancing and danced her way through the puzzle. And just like that, she was free.

Isadora was in a room filled with Jeiva writing on the wall and with dictionaries on the language. She had to figure out the puzzle to escape the room. She remembered the time being kidnapped by Madrid that she saw some peasants basking in his glory and figured out the password to escape.

King Jeiva is Great

Just like that, Isadora was free.

Mahi was trapped in a room filled with fire. She remembered playing "The Floor is Lava" with a bunch of stray kittens and decided to do that. She pressed on the tiles that weren't on fire. As she was about to make it through the door, fire blocked her. "It's a good thing I'm the Guardian of Fire," she said as she cleared a path, making her escape.

Addison was in a pathway with a bunch of strange symbols. She looked closely and saw that it was music notes on the wall. By the piano in the hall, she played "Beethoven's 5th." After she finished, she was free.

In the hallway, all five girls were reunited and ready to escape. King Jeiva was coming out of his feast when he saw them escape. "Zenmunth," he berated, "I told you to place them in the rooms where they won't figure out the puzzles."

"I thought ya said 'figure out the puzzles'," Zemunth replied.

"Looks like your the one who's puzzled," Peggy slyly said.

Guardians Unite

The transformed and they took down Zemunth, who said in tears, "You hurt me."

"Well, you work for the enemy, bud," growled Mahi, "and your stupidity led us to escape."

They flew off with the stupid Zemunth crying, much to King Jeiva's annoyance.

Back at Useka, they found their backpacks and purses by the same table they sat at. As they got back, they saw Elsie coming back with frozen yogurt. "Nice work leaving your purses by the tables," she said. "Usually girls would get their bags stolen, but you gave us a signal on where we should sit, and I'm sorry we were late. The line was long and I had to control the little ones."

"That's okay, sis," Rayne replied.

"Time to go, kids," called Mr. Covington. "We gotta get this desk together."

"Can we decorate it, please?" Elias asked.

"Sure, kids," Mr. Covington answered. "Just don't use too much glitter this time."

The twins and Cassie cheered with glee as they help their parents carry some bags.

Mrs. O'Donovan came with some blankets she bought for her husband and youngest daughter for the holidays. She revealed two blankets one was of bubbles and one was a quilt with different types of weather. She explained that she got the idea from when an annoyed customers ran off after someone squirted some shampoo on her. This gave her an idea to get a bubble blanket for Esme and a weather quilt for Mr. O'Donovan.

*Looks like Zemunth makes double the mistakes*, Peggy thought to herself, *trapping me and my friends in rooms that gets us out quickly and giving my mom the idea of what blankets she should by*.

"I like it," Peggy smiled. "I think that shampoo sample guy is a great inspiration."

Peggy and her mom took off to the car while Peggy secretly thanked Zemunth for the ideas.

The End
