It was a sunny yet cloudy day in Littlebark Grove. Harvey was sitting in his room looking out the window. He began to wear a new shirt which was a long sleeve aqua green polo shirt not long after Fee and Foo moved away with Bada and Grada to Impland Empire. Harvey thought it'd be a unique style and he wanted to try it out.

He often got letters from Fee and Foo though he really missed them. Harvey didn't admit it but ever since the twins left he hasn't been the same. He understood that they were moving on but even then it was kind of hard for him to. This unfortunately took a large toll on the young bluebird mentally but surprisingly he wasn't the only one.

Un-ironically the same thing was happening with Claire. She really missed Foo as she still had a crush on him. Even though Foo was oblivious to Claire taking a liking to him, Claire had hope that one day Foo would get to know. The other kids were beginning to take notice of her and Harvey's behaviors so they had a meeting one day.

The kids consisted of Dade, Kratz, Mikey, Technobear, Rooter, Piri, Kathy, and Princess. "Before we start this does anyone know why we are here?" asked Dade. Everyone nodded yes to him except for Princess who was sleeping out of boredom. "Wake up Princess!" Dade demanded. Princess woke up annoyed like usual. "Ugh! I was having the best dream ever!" she complained. Some of the kids rolled their eyes at Princess. "Anyway," Dade went on, "I think I know a way to make Claire and Harvey feel better." "What's the plan?" asked Technobear. "I'm glad you ask," Dade said, "I say we tell them that they got us instead."

The other kids were confused at what Dade ment. "Where are you getting at Dade?" Mikey asked a little sceptical of where Dade was going with this. "What I'm trying to say is they don't need the twins when they got us to be with," said Dade. He didn't know that he was starting to build up a negative atmosphere. "So let me get this straight mate," Rooter said, "This is another one of your rants on the twins only this time you are trying to convince Harvey and Claire they don't need them?" Dade was trying his best not to get annoyed with the others. "I'm just saying who needs the twins?" Dade went on, "They smell, steal, and are very annoying! I mean look at all the stuff they did as well as us over the years! They don't mean a thing to me nor should they mean anything to Big Bark Woods as a whole!"

This really angered the kids as they thought Dade was being extremely rude. Not the first time but certainly the rudest he has been about the twins yet. "You got a problem with my bros?" snapped Technobear. "Of course I do!" Dade snapped back, "While you are busy listening to that demon stuff that you like to call music, we are dealing with a crisis that could destroy the entire town!" "Fee and Foo may act rather different and may cause some chaos but they had difficult life's and I think you need to acknowledge that," said Kathy. Dade at this point got extremely angry that nobody wanted to be on his side. "You are all brainwashed by those trash people!" he yelled. "Trash people?" scoffed Mikey, "Pfft, typical Dade..." "We are honestly ashamed of you," said Technobear, "You may not like the twins and there's nothing wrong with that but you are taking this WAY too personally dude. Let us know when you are stable enough to talk to so we can try to help Harvey and Claire because you might have a couple screws loose."

Technobear and the others walked off except for Princess who fell asleep once more. She then woke up to see everyone gone except for Dade. "Meeting is over?" she asked, "That was quick but good for me!" Princess ran off into the woods leaving Dade furious. "I gotta convince Harvey and Claire that they don't need the twins somehow!" Dade thought to himself, "What can I do since no one wants to help me? I'll have to wait for now, there is no signs of them coming back any time soon anyway."


THE NEXT DAY...

Harvey got mail from Fee and Foo, he expected it to be them checking in on him as well as explaining their time in Impland Empire. It was anything but that and something Harvey didn't expect to read.

Hey dude! I've got some incredible new for you about what's going to happen in the next 3 days. Before I get to that though, remember how my dad uses snakes for money? Turns out he has over a hundred thousand of them. Over the past 3 months he made a lot of money selling his sculptures. My dad says he has never made so much in just 3 months!

The truth is that me and Foo are moving into Littlebark again this time our parents are coming with us! Our parents traded in the snakes for actually money so we can move into Littlebark! We can't wait to see you guys again soon! Sincerely Fee DeLee

Harvey thought he was going to cry tears of joy over reading the letter! He thought this was too good to be true but it was true!

He gathered all the Littlebark kids around town square to make the announcement. "I have exciting news!" Harvey said triumphantly, "You guys remember the twins Fee and Foo? In 3 days they will be coming back to Littlebark and will be staying like they did years prior!" There were some mixed thoughts that some of the kids had on the twins. Some didn't get along with Fee and Foo but did know they had difficult lives. Nonetheless, they gave Harvey their support.

Dade who was within crowd of all the kids pretended to be happy but deep down he was very angry that Fee and Foo would be returning. He knew the chance of them coming back to stay forever this time would be inevidable. Dade had to come up with something fast as he only had 3 days till the twins arrived.


Meanwhile...

Fee, Foo, Bada, and Grada were packing their things up. It would be best they pack up ahead of time so they could get all of their priorities out of the way. The process of packing would make the planning of getting to Littlebark much easier and quicker.

"I'm gonna miss Impland Empire," Grada sighed, "But going to Big Bark will bring new opportunities." "Let's not forget we get to see Harvey again!" Fee added. "Harvey? Where?" asked Foo. "We haven't left yet Foo," Fee said to Foo bluntly. Foo frowned knowing that he couldn't see Harvey yet.

The twins wore completely different clothing from what they previously wore. Fee wore a brown fur coat, dark brown pants, and a brown and yellow camouflaged headband. Foo wore a pointy brown and grey hat, a light brown fur jacket, light brown pants, and brown slippers. Their clothes were a very similar fashion to their parents clothing.

The DeLee's would get to Littlebark by taking a coach bus. It would be a lot easier than walking and would be less time consuming. Their hopes to get to Littlebark as soon as they could wouldn't be a walk in the park with what Dade was planning.


For the next 2 days, Dade made plans by himself since it was clear nobody wanted to help him. He had some pretty clever plans to make sure that the DeLee's never arrive to Big Bark Woods. The kids except Harvey knew Dade was a little crazy when it came to the twins but what they didn't know how far Dade was willing to go to get the twins away from Littlebark. From the day they had the meeting forward, he only worsened.

On the day the twins were supposed to come back to Littlebark, Harvey and his friends gathered around town square waiting for the arrival of the twins. It was clear there would be a lot of celebrating upon they're arrival.

"Hey have you guys seen Dade?" asked Harvey. "No and I doubt he is going to participate," Technobear replied, "No offense Harvey but I think Dade is a little out of his mind when it comes to the twins. Even after that incident we had with those mobsters last year, he's still very ungrateful and has even began to turn his aggression on us for looking out for Fee and Foo." Harvey was disappointed that Dade was still angry at the twins. "Even then," Harvey sighed, "I just wish he, Fee, and Foo would get to understand each other."

Claire said, "I can't wait to see Foo again," as she blushed heavily. It was no surprise that Claire was excited to see Foo again. Givin the fact she still had a crush on the orange Imp, it was no secret that she was hoping Foo would get to know how she really felt.


Meanwhile, Dade was up on a hill looking down on Littlebark Grove. He used binoculars to see his plan unfold. He switched around street signs and used construction signs to try to alter course. There was one HUGE major problem though, and that was he didn't exactly know how the twins were getting into Littlebark. Dade would find out soon but his plans would lead to a chain reaction. This would be Dade's ultimate mistake.

The DeLee's rode a coach bus as well as several others. They got onto the coach 2 hours earlier and to say the least went pretty well. Their bus got off the exit to Littlebark but it seemed to go in a much more different direction. Fee noticed this which gave her a weird feeling that something was up. The bus driver himself thought something was up too, givin the fact he had been on the Littlebark Route several times. "Why does everything feel so different?" he murmured.

Dade saw the bus taking the botched up route and saw the twins and their parents using his binoculars. He immediately smiled seeing his plan was working. "Time for you and your stone age parents to stay away from Harvey!" he laughed. Dade then realized that there were other cars following the bus along the route. Not only that, but he began to realize others were on the bus the DeLee's were on too. "What have I done?" he gulped. It was at this moment, Dade regretted his decisions.

Dade quickly ran down the hill to where he made the other false detours hoping he'd get there before the bus and other vehicles would. However, he was too late. "Oh come on!" Dade yelled. Dade knew he had to get the vehicles back on the right track, even if that ment the twins seeing Harvey again. He knew it would be the right thing to do for those trying to get into Littlebark. First he had to find something to get him ahead of traffic.

Dade bolted down the street and paths looking for something that would help him get ahead of traffic. He saw Randl's Rentls up ahead and quickly went inside. Dade saw Randl at the front desk. "You have anything fast I can barrow?" Dade asked quickly. Randl looked behind him to see a bike the looked back at Dade. "17 dollars," he said bluntly. Dade had that exact amount and gave it to Randl as quickly as he could before taking the bike and heading off. "Hey Randl," Merryl called from upstairs, "Is it normal for the toilet to overflow?" "Ma!" Randl yelled.

The bus continued along the detours getting closer and closer away to exiting Littlebark. Fee really didn't feel all that right going down the detours as she felt they were exiting Littlebark. "Hey, do you think we might be going the wrong way?" she asked her family. Bada, Grada, and Foo were too occupied to take much notice. "Hey dude," Fee called to the bus driver, "I'm pretty sure we are going the wrong way!" "I think so too," he replied to Fee, "The street signs look nothing like the route I'd usually take." The driver ended up pulling over the bus to check where he was. The other vehicles drove around the bus and continued onwards.

Dade rode the bike as fast as he could ahead of traffic. He saw the coach bus pulled over but the DeLee's weren't much a concern to him anymore. All that mattered to him was that he fixes the damage he had already done. Fee and Foo coming back would make Harvey happy anyway.

Dade continued to go at the bike's max speed. After a while of biking the traffic began to slow down as an old lady was crossing the street very slowly. This gave Dade some time to beat traffic for a good 3 and a half minutes until he came across an intersection where the final faulty street sign was. He quickly fixed it and other signs up ahead to direct others and the bus in the right direction to where they are supposed to head, he'd fix the other signs from where the traffic was later.

It was thanks to Dade's quick actions that helped traffic get back on track on where they were supposed to go. "Phew, hopefully that can fix the damage," Dade said releaved. Thankfully it did as traffic began to go the right way and Dade quickly went back to fix the other faulty street signs.


Meanwhile, Harvey and the others waited for Fee and Foo's arrival. The kids had been waiting for more than a half hour now and some were growing a bit impatient.

The bus driver was thankfully able to get back on route and head to their destination. They were running a half hour behind schedule but thankfully were in Littlebark, just in the wrong spot.

Once the bus pulled up to town square, the DeLee twins were greeted by all the kids. "Fee! Foo!" Harvey called out. Fee and Foo saw Harvey and quickly ran up to him. The 3 hugged for a long while before they began to tell what has been going on for the past year. Fee told about her and Foo's experiences out in Impland Empire. They saw many sights they'd never seen before, learnt a lot about Impland Empire, got to know their country's culture, got into a few mishaps with some folks there, did have some unpleasant experiences with some creatures, learnt how to hunt, and overall had a good time despite a few incidents.

While Harvey and Fee talked, Claire hugged Foo and got to talk with him. Foo didn't know why Claire hugged him as he was still oblivious to Claire having a crush on him. "Why you hug me Claire?" he asked out of curiosity. "Oh umm, sorry Foo," Claire said shyly, "I got a little excited because I missed you so much." Foo told about he and Fee's experiences in Impland Empire. Claire could tell Foo improved overtime mentally and seemed to be a bit smarter than he was originally. He still was same old Foo but just had a little more knowledge than he used to have. Claire was a bit flirty with Foo which he kind of noticed but didn't think much of it, he just rolled along with.

Since the DeLee's were back in Littlebark, it was a celebration time for just about everyone! When night fell, Littlebark Grove needless to say had the craziest party since Fee and Foo's first birthday a few years prior.

Dade joined in just for the sake of Harvey and since he was in a good mood. He heard about what has been going on with the twins and pretended to be supportive about them coming back. Dade was at the same time glad he rethought what he did because he knew he could have made Harvey upset and caused a severe traffic jam and/or accident. Nobody knew Dade causedthe faulty detours and by the time road work arrived when everything was reported, everything was back to normal. Dade may have gotten away scot free and rethought his decisions as well as going to the party, but that didn't mean he wasn't going to make going to make another decision like that again. His attitude would only worsen over time but for now, everything would be fine.

THE END!
