In his bedroom, his new alarm clock rang with a love song, "I Really Like You" by Carly Rae Jepsen. The Grinch got out of bed happily as he danced like a ballerina and turned it off. Because of his first date last night, he felt like he was in a dream land. While he was waking before switching the alarm clock off, he thought he was just dreaming about dating with Donna, but it isn't a dream, it's real. His memories of his first date with the love of his life was had came back. Grinch had a great time last night. The eating, the dancing, and… that kiss. That sweet, soft and tender kiss. He never felt something good and nice before. He just kissed those strawberry-flavored soft lips… or she's the one who pulled him into a kiss, but it was worth and it felt… so nice… and so incredible. He clutched his chest again, and felt his heart beating even faster and louder than ever. He is in love with her, even while, before or after they've kissed. It was the most happy memorable of his life yet.

Without waking his dog up, the Grinch decided to do his morning routine on his own. Taking a shower, drying his fur, used toothbrush and breath spray, taking the right everyday-clothes, and brushed his fur in front of the mirror. He decided to take the stairs again than using the elevator chair. When he made it to the kitchen, he took out all ingredients out from his kitchen cabinet to make pancakes.

Max woke up on his bed when he smelled something good. He got off his doggy bed, and found his master was making pancakes when he flipped them with a pan. The dog whimpered curiously.

"Morning, Max," the Grinch greeted his favorite dog as he flipped the pancake on Max's doggy plate. He even put butter and syrup for that. Then, he made himself coffee, took out two plates as he put two pancakes on each plate. He put them and Max's doggy plate on the dinner table. Max hopped on the chair where his plate was in front of him, and ate the pancake.

Grinch chuckled, happy to see his dog happy, "You're welcome, Max. Now, we'll just wait for Aggie to come down." He drank his coffee, sliced his pancake, and ate it.

They've been waiting for Aggie for half-an-hour, but she hasn't come down yet. Grinch and Max became suspicious and worry. Aggie was never late for breakfast. There has to be a problem.

"Come on, Max, let's go check on her," Grinch said as he and Max walked upstairs and stopped at the mid-stairs to check on Aggie. He knocked on her door, but she didn't answer, "Agatha?" He called, then opened the door. "Aggie?" He then saw Aggie packing her things in her backpack. "What are you doing?"

"Um, I'm packing," Aggie answered.

"For what?"

"Home. I'm going home."

"W-What? But why?"

"My element glowed again last night, just like when it first glowed. It means my mission is over. I'm done here. I'm going home."

The Grinch was quite shock that his new friend is leaving, even before New Year. They're just starting to get along so fast, but life is short and time flies so fast. "But we have so much time to do. It's New Year, and we're going to Donna's tonight."

"I told you, Grinch. I can't," Aggie stood up to stretch her legs. "Since my mission in over before New Year, I have to catch it up to celebrate with my family and friends. I'm sorry, Grinch, but I really have to go."

"But… But I thought."

"Hey. You said it yourself. Secretly you don't want me here 'cause I'm annoying and you're willing to help me finding my mission just to get rid of me, but it's okay. I got use to it, but there's one thing I'm confuse. Why now? Why you want me to stay all of a sudden?"

That question hit the Grinch on the heart, like a sharp blade. He was impressed that Aggie knew his secret of getting rid of her, which he was relief that she took it well, but the longer she stays, the stronger the bond between the two, and Aggie reminded Grinch of someone he knew that he never seen for a very long time. He sighed, and explained, "Do you remember when we first met that I know you before?"

"Yeah, and that was a confusing question." Aggie said, "Do you really know me?"

"Nope. not exactly, but I want to show you something," the Grinch walked out of her room and up to his bedroom as Aggie and Max followed.

When they reach the bedroom, Grinch sat on his bed, and lifted his pillow to get retrieve something that he kept.

"What is that?" asked Aggie as she sat beside him.

The Grinch showed her a picture of his younger self and his best friend, "that is Whittaker. He's a friend of mine when we were still at the orphanage. We used to have fun together, celebrating Christmas, exchange gifts, sharing secrets and anything. We were so close, like brothers. But he was adopted when we were four. I never saw him again. You look exactly like Whittaker. That's why I've been mistaken that I thought you're him."

Aggie took the picture and looked closely at it, mainly Young Whittaker. There's nothing similar to them, except their eyes. They have the same color and shape, "You're right, though. Whittaker looks just like me, only the eyes."

"He was also a friendly, supportive and annoying friend, like you. You almost reminded me of him. That's why I'm starting to like you as a friend. I just hope you can stay a bit."

"I'm sorry, but I still can't. I have to go home. I have thing to prepare for New Year. My friends and family are waiting for me. They were counting on me since I'm in-charge for the New Year party we planned. They need me."

"Well," He sighed sadly. "If that's what you want and it's very important, I won't stop you."

"Thanks, Grinch, but before I go," Aggie stood up from the bed. "I want to say goodbye to all of my friends here in this world. Can you help me?"

Grinch nodded, "Sure, I'm happy to."

Later, Grinch, Max and Aggie travelled down from Mt. Crumpit, and almost passed Bricklebaum's house. He was seen testing his New Year decorations until he noticed his neighbors almost passed his house.

"Hey, Grinchy, Aggie! What's up you two?!" Bricklebaum rushed towards them with open arms.

"Hey, Bricklebaum, we're just going to see you," the Grinch replied.

"Aww, isn't that nice? So how's your date with Donna?"

"It went well, more than we thought," Aggie answered. "They also kissed."

"Aggie!" groaned the Grinch.

"Bricklebaum gasped, "Really?! I knew you had it in you! Come on and give me a hug." He squeezed his neighbor in for a hug.

The Grinch hugged him back before breaking the hug, "Anyway, the reason we're here is…"

"I'm leaving," Aggie finished the sentence. "And I'm going to say goodbye to you."

"What? Where are you going?" asked the jolliest Who in town.

"My mission is over. I'm going home."

"But there's gonna be a countdown tonight. Could you stay for the New Year?"

"I can't. My family and friends are waiting for me. We're going to have a New Year party back in my world. I also promised them that I'll go home before New Year."

"that's too bad because we'll have lots of fireworks and we're going to have a big feast tonight."

"Sorry, Bricklebaum, but I have to go home."

Bricklebaum hung his head down, "Oh well, I hope you can come and visit us. And maybe next year, you'll celebrate New Year's Eve with us."

"I'll be honored. I promise that," Aggie smiled.

"Well, we should go to Donna. We'll let her and Cindy Lou know that you're going home today," Grinch suggested.

"Alright, I'll see ya around, Mr. Bricklebaum," Aggie waved goodbye at him.

"Goodbye, Aggie. Be careful and go home safely," Bricklebaum waved back at her as he sadly went back to his house to test the decorations again.

The three entered Whoville. Aggie got a chance to see the town one last time before going home. They headed straight to the Lou-Who household. The Grinch rang the bell as Cindy Lou answered the door as she opened it, and happy to see Grinch, Max and Aggie again.

"Mr. Grinch, Ms. Aggie, you're here and you're early!" She exclaimed.

"Good morning, Cindy Lou," the Grinch greeted.

"I just wanted to say thank you for making my mom happy again. She was so happy since last night."

"Yeah. It's no problem. Is she here right now?"

"No. She was at work. She left early this morning. Why are you looking for her?"

"Actually, I'm the one who was looking for her," Aggie cut in as she looked down at the little girl. "Cindy Lou, I'm leaving."

"What? Where are you going?" asked Cindy.

"I'm going home… back to my home world. My mission is over, so there's nothing for me to do here if I say. I have to go home." The winged human explained.

Cindy Lou felt her heart break when her new and even close friend is going to leave her and from this world. The girl hugged Aggie tighter and sobbed, "Please don't go! We were having so much fun together! Please stay for New Year! There's gonna be a big party here."

"I'm sorry, sweetie, but I also have my family and friends waiting for me. They need me, they miss me, and I miss them. I miss my children. They need me. I need to be home to my family," Aggie bent down and wiped the tears from Cindy's eyes.

She sniffed and hugged Aggie tighter, "I want you stay for a bit, but I understand you need to go home. You're a mother too, just like my mom. Your children and family need you."

"But I won't leave yet not without saying goodbye to your mother. She's always been so kind to me."

"She's at the hospital, but we can go there. I'll have to get baby stroller," Cindy Lou went back inside to get the stroller.

"Right! We can't leave the twins alone!" The Grinch agreed as he rushed in to help Cindy getting her brothers.

When they're ready, Grinch put the twins on their baby stroller, and he, Cindy Lou, Max and Aggie walked to the other side to take a ride in a bus, but the bus already drove away.

"Oh no, the bus!" Cindy Lou exclaimed.

"We have to catch it!" Aggie screamed.

The four ran as fast as they can to catch up with the bus. The Grinch was having a hard time running while pushing the baby stroller. They tried to avoid the Whos in front of them, trying not to push or hit them.

"Wait, Mr. Sam, wait!" Cindy Lou yelled as she tapped the door bus hard to get Sam the driver's attention.

"Pull over, please!" Grinch did the same what Cindy Lou did.

When Sam heard the loud tap and loud voice outside of his bus, he noticed the green creature, a little girl, a human with wings and a dog ran to catch up the bus. Sam stopped the bus and opened the door for his three passengers a dog and two babies, "Sorry, Mr. Grinch, Cindy Lou."

"That's okay, Mr. Sam," Cindy Lou said as she put the coins she saved on the box, and she joined Grinch, Max, Aggie and the twins on their seat. "Thanks for stopping."

"You guys run so fast. What's the occasion?" Sam asked.

"We just want to see mom in the hospital," Cindy replied.

"Oh, yeah, she never ride in the bus anymore since she has that snowmobile," the driver said. "I wonder where she got that."

"Uh, I built her that, so she won't be late for work," the Grinch confessed.

"Ooooooooohhhhhh!" The passengers in the bus cooed.

"That's nice of you, Mr. Grinch. I'll drop you off to the hospital," said Sam.

"Thanks, Mr. Sam," Cindy Lou thanked the driver.

The bus stopped in front of the Whoville hospital where Donna Lou worked. Cindy Lou, Max and Aggie hopped off the bus while the Grinch carefully lowered the stroller, where the twins are, off the bus, and he dropped himself off as the bus drove away.

"Mom is still working. There's a chance we can still meet her," Cindy Lou said as she rushed inside.

"Cindy Lou, wait, don't go so fast!" The Grinch yelled as he rushed with the stroller to catch her up, and aggie and Max followed.

After talking to the doctor, Donna Lou was about to do her assignment when she heard someone at the counter.

"I'm sorry, but Nurse Donna is quite busy."

"But we're just here to see her."

Donna recognized that voice as she rushed to the counter, only to see her children with Grinch, Max and Aggie. "Cindy Lou?"

The girl turned to see her mother, "Mom!" She rushed to hug her.

Donna hugged her tightly as she was happy to see her, "What are you doing here?"

"I came to see you, as was Grinch," Cindy giggled.

"Cindy Lou! Seriously?!" the Grinch gritted his teeth in embarrassment.

Donna then looked at the Grinch with a smile on her face, "Thanks again for the date last night. It was wonderful."

The Grinch nervously chuckled, still scratching the back of his neck, "You're welcome. Glad you enjoyed it."

Giving the Grinch a break, Aggie stepped forward, "hey, Donna, I'm actually reason they came here."

"Oh, Aggie, what's wrong?" asked Donna.

"I… I'm going home. My mission is over here," she answered.

"But what about New Year?! You're invited for New Year dinner at my house tonight."

"Yes, but I have my own New Year dinner back in my world, and my friends and family can't celebrate New year without me. They need me. And I can't leave without saying goodbye to you."

"Oh, Aggie," Donna placed her hands on Aggie's shoulder. "You've been a great friend and you helped me a lot too. I just want to make up to you after your hard work. And thank you for… helping me out of everything."

"It was no big deal," Aggie said. "And you don't have to invite me after my hard work. I don't need a prize, as long as my new friend is happy." She glanced at the Grinch, who made a thankful smile to her, showing how happy he is. Her hard work was worth it.

Donna then looked down at her clipboard, "Oh, I have to take this assignment in the waiting room."

"Can we come with you? You know, as my last tour in this town?" Aggie asked.

"Sure, just don't touch any patience. Their sickness might be contagious," the mother warned as they followed her to the waiting room. "And you're going to leave the twins and Max with my friend at the counter. Babies and animals are not allowed to be near sick people."

"Sorry, Max," The Grinch said to his dog as Max whined sadly. At least he can spend more time with Bean and Buster.

When the Grinch left the twins and Max to Donna's friend at the counter, he, Cindy Lou and Aggie followed her to the waiting, where they encountered a red cardinal bird with a blue baseball cap and wore a doctor coat. He was almost half of Aggie's size. This bird is not like a regular bird in Whoville or in this world, but this may be belonging from another world, which Aggie recognized him.

"Roy?" She inquired.

The red bird turned to her with a nervous grin, "Hey, Aunt Mom."

"You know him?" Asked Donna.

"Yeah, he's my stepson," answered Aggie as she turned to Roy. "What are you doing here?"

"I'll tell you what I'm not doing here: Giving sponge baths to big hairy guys," Roy explained but his stepmom didn't buy it as she moved closer to him. "So, Aunt Mom, what's… what's the happs? What's—" Before he can say anything else, Roy accidentally held on one of the curtains and fell, opening the curtain and revealing another red bird, who was older than Roy, lied down on a bed, while the other red bird, who was at Roy's age with a red bow, stood beside the older red bird.

"Hey, honey!" Red greeted.

"And who's he?" Cindy asked again.

"I think that's Aggie's husband," Grinch guessed as Cindy and Donna had their doubts.

"Red!" Aggie yelled.

"Nice work, son." Red glared at Roy, who just shrugged.

"Yep. That's him," Donna believed.

Aggie was confused about what's happening right now as she asked, "Okay, what's going on here?"

"Dad fell down the stairs and broke his butt," Rebecca, Red's daughter, Aggie's step-daughter and Roy's twin sister, explained.

Aggie then asked Red, "You weren't holding the egg, were you?"

"Um, yes. Then no…, then yes again," Red said honestly, describing the whole about what happened.

The winged human was frustrated and pulled her hair in depression, "Red, you promised me you weren't gonna drop this one!"

"Honey, look, it was just a little accident. Oh, and by the way, for the record, an amazing catch!"

"I knew this was a huge mistake. I never should've gone on this mission."

"Sweetheart, sweetheart, this is all gonna be okay."

"No. No, it's not. It's too hard. I can't do this anymore. I mean, what made me think I could go on a mission to complete it non-stop, and take care of three kids and an egg while taking charge of the whole team?!" Aggie sat down on a chair, and cried. "I'm a terrible mother!"

"No, no, you're not," Red protested, comforting his wife. "Look, if anything, I'm a horrible father."

"I know!"

"Would you guys chill? You're great parents," Roy cut in. "Rebecca, Amaranth Red, Crimson Red, Clover Scarlet and me turned out pretty good."

"Yeah, come on. We've got to be doing something right," Red agreed. "I mean, hey, look at this, your stepson's a doctor." He pointed at his son as he reminded that Roy is still wearing a doctor coat.

Aggie laughed the sadness and guilt out from her eyes, "I'm serious. With both of us working, our poor little egg doesn't stand a chance."

"Come on, no one's going solo on this. All of us are gonna help out. And if the egg hatches and our little brother or sister gets a little messed up along the way, we can all share the blame." Rebecca said as the parents nodded.

Just then, a voice was heard through the P.A., "Dr. Wholavier, to the operating room."

When Roy remembered he wore a doctor's coat with Dr. Wholavier's name tag, he played along as he walked out of the door, "It never ends!" He complained.

After the teenage bird left, it's time for the Grinch to introduce himself to the husband of his new friend, "You must be Aggie's husband. Hi, my name is Grinch." He extended his hand to the bird.

"Oh, you must be the Grinch. My wife told us about," Red shook hands with him. "Nice to meet you. So, did my wife do a great job while she was on a mission?"

"Quite annoying at first, but she's a good friend."

"She is, that's why I love her."

"Red! Not in front of the kid!" Aggie pointed at Cindy Lou.

The little Who-girl walked towards Red, and shook hands with him, "Hi, Mr. Red. My name is Cindy Lou. Cindy Lou Who, and this is my mother, Donna Lou"

"It's nice to meet you two, and this is my daughter, Rebecca," He introduced his daughter to the girl.

"Hi, Cindy Lou," Rebecca bent down to her.

"So, what brings you here, Mr. Red?" Donna Lou asked.

"Well, after I fell down the stairs, I decided to go to the hospital, but I wanted to make sure if my wife would come home, so we take this hospital instead," Red explained.

"Well, you're in luck, hon, because my mission is over here. I can go home," Aggie said.

"You can?!" Red was surprised as his wife nodded. "That's great. We can celebrate new Year together!"

But the three Whos felt sad that their new friend will go as Cindy Lou yanked at Aggie's dress, "Do you really have to go? You can still celebrate New Year with us. We still have room for one more."

"I have to, Cindy Lou. You have your family, and I have mine. This is important. I hope you understand."

The girl choked the sadness in her throat and responded, "I understand."

"We're gonna miss you, girl," the Grinch added.

"Don't worry. I'll come to visit any time. I promise," Aggie held her hand up.

Red watched this scene as he felt guilty for his wife. It's her choice that she should go home to celebrate New Year with them; her friends and family, but he noticed that deep down, Aggie felt so guilty for rejecting an invitation from her new friends.

"We'll just go home, right after we fix Red's butt," She glared at her husband who grinned sheepishly.

After Donna gave Red pain medication, it's time for the family to go home. Outside the hospital, Aggie opened the portal with her interdimensional remote control, and looked back to the Grinch.

"I'm really glad I met you," She smiled.

"Yeah, me too," Grinch replied as he hugged her. Even Cindy Lou, Donna and Max joined the hug.

"We're gonna miss you, Aggie," Donna told her during the hug.

"Oh, I'll be back. Maybe in few days. Just look out for open portals like this," Aggie winked.

"Come on, Aunt Mom, we really should be going," Rebecca called.

When they broke a hug, Aggie shook the Grinch's hand one more time before following her husband and stepchildren. She waved at the Lou-Who family, the Grinch and Max one more time as she entered the portal and it closed.

As the portal disappeared, the Grinch shook his head down sadly again after Aggie's departure. Donna rested her head on his arm to comfort him.

"This is what she wants, Grinch," She told him with her soothing voice. "She has a family to take care of. She's really a great friend."

"Yes, she is," He agreed. "She really reminded me of Whittaker. My best friend."

Once again, another crossover, but this time, they're in Whoville or the World of the Whos.
