"Atticus..." Mo whispered in her sleep as she slept in the guest cot while Blythe slept in her own bed. She soon felt someone licking her. This made her giggle until she lifted up her bandanna to see who was there to wake her up and of course it was her own dog. "Hi, girl." Mo smiled.
"Mo." Angel smiled back as she nuzzled up to her mistress.
Mo smiled as she nuzzled with Angel, then saw the littlest pets as they came to wake up Blythe.
"Wake up, Blythe." Russell told the sleeping girl.
"Morning, Dad," Blythe yawned. "You won't believe the dream I had. I met a talking porcupine."
"And cue him correcting her." Angel said.
"Hedgehog, actually." Russell told Blythe.
"Huh?" Blythe asked as she soon saw the animal.
"Hi." Russell smiled.
This made Blythe scream. "IT WASN'T A DREAM!" she yelled out before she then decided to apologize. "Sorry to keep calling you porcupine."
"Ah, no worries." Russell soothed.
"Anyway, we need your and Mo's help." Angel told Blythe.
"Why can I suddenly understand pets?" Blythe asked. "I mean, who can talk to pets?!"
"That's not important, Blythe," Russell told her. "What's important is-"
"What the why?!" Blythe groaned. "How did you all get in here?"
"We used that box thingy." Angel said, pointing to the dumbwaiter.
"You mean the dumbwaiter?" Mo asked.
"Hey!" Vinnie glared. "What did you just call me?"
"Blythe, we came here to ask you to help," Russell told the new girl in Downtown City. "We have to keep Littlest Pet Shop from going out of business."
"What could I possibly do to stop that from happening?" Blythe shrugged.
"I'm not sure myself." Mo said.
"OH! This has 'Zoe' written all over it!" Zoe smiled when she found one sketch that Blythe made which she really liked so far. "In big, sparkly fashion board letters!"
That soon gave Mo an idea. "Light Bulb!" she then proclaimed.
"Huh?" The Littlest Pets asked.
"She has an idea." Angel explained.
"It stinks." Sunil said.
"You haven't even heard about it yet!" Angel glared before sniffing something and plugged her nose with a paw. "Oh... That stinks."
They soon saw where smell was coming from.
"Oh, sorry!" Pepper smiled nervously. "Guess I'm a little nervous being up here."
"Ugh, it smells worse than JJ's diapers when he was a baby." Mo grimaced.
"What am I doing?" Blythe complained.
"Blythe! Are you up?" Roger called out from behind the door. "You don't wanna be late for your first day at your new school!"
"Oh, crud, that's right." Mo said with a face-palm.
"Okay, Dad!" Blythe called out before panicking to the Littlest Pets. "Come on, everybody, you've gotta go!
"Oh! Blythe!" Roger soon smelled an awful scent. "You feeling okay? Ugh, 'cuz something smells bad."
"Uh, that would be-" Pepper was about to say.
"He can't understand animals." Angel whispered to her.
"Uh, I feel fine, Dad!" Blythe smiled nervously as she put the animals into the dumbwaiter. "I'll be right out! Okay, down you go."
"Wait! Blythe! If you don't help us, the shop will close! And we'll all have to go to... Largest Ever Pet Shop: the biggest, coldest, unfriendliest pet shop in the city...!" Russell begged. "Where we can't hang out together! The snacks are flavorless...! And the squeaker toys HAVE NO SQUEAKERS! BLYTHE, YOU'VE GOTTA HELP!"
Angel soon shivered as she imagined bigger pet shop. It looked more like a concentration camp or a prison than a pet shop unlike LPS.
"Why me?" Blythe asked.
"You're the obvious choice!" Russell begged. "You live above the shop, you seem really nice, and... Oh, yeah! You're the only person besides the boy girl who actually understands us!"
"Please say you'll help!" Penny Ling pleaded. "Please, oh please, oh please!"
"I think you should do it." Mo suggested to Blythe.
"Yes, you should." Angel nodded in agreement.
"Okay, okay, I'll help." Blythe gave in.
This made Angel cheer with the Littlest Pets.
"I have no idea what I can do, but I... Guess I'll think of something." Blythe shrugged.
"Like a fashion show?" Mo asked.
"A pet fashion show?" Blythe asked.
"Yeah, why not?" Mo smiled. "It'll be amazing!"
"Oh! One last thing," Russell suddenly remembered. "You have to save the shop by tomorrow."
"Tomorrow?!" Mo and Blythe asked out of surprise.
The dumbwaiter soon crashed down with the littlest pets.
"Oh, sorry..." Mo smiled nervously.
"You guys okay?!" Angel added.
"We're okay..." The pets said weakly.
Angel then breathed in relief.
"Hurry, girls!" Roger called out on the other side. "If I'm late for my flight, they'll leave without me! Which would be bad, cuz I'm the captain!"
"We're coming!" Mo called out.
Blythe and Mo then got ready to visit the school.
"Thanks for coming with me for my first day; I'm nervous enough as it is." Blythe said to her cousin, very gratefully.
"No problem." Mo smiled.
The littlest pets were cheering on for Blythe and Mo to help save them. Angel was going towards Mo's backpack to go into it and hide and where she soon got inside.
"C'mon, girls, let's go!" Roger called out. "What's that racket?"
"Uh, just some construction," Blythe smiled nervously. "You know, big city stuff, heh."
Eventually, the girls got into the car, though Mo looked around for Angel before shrugging, thinking maybe she was with the Littlest Pets. Only for her to be wrong.
"Huh... A new adventure, right, Dad?" Blythe asked.
"That's right, Blythie," Roger smiled. "You know you love an adventure."
"She sure does." Mo said.
"And I love you, too, but I wish you wouldn't call me 'Blythie'," Blythe told her father. "I'm too old for that."
"You'll always be my little girl." Roger smiled.
"See you later, Uncle Roger." Mo said as she helped Blythe out of the car to help her out on her first day of school.
"Here we go." Blythe said.
A limo pulled up behind them which showed the Biskit twins and their father warned them to try to not get expelled again which Mo didn't even want to think about, though she had slightly wide eyes as the limo license plate said 'LARGEST EVER PET SHOP'.
"Well, that makes sense of why they're evil." The tomboy said to herself.
"Did you say something, Mo?" Blythe asked.
"Come on, let's get to school." Mo told her.
"I hope the pets will be okay back at the shop." Angel whispered to herself inside of Mo's backpack.
Mo looked around as she could have sworn she heard Angel.
Eventually, they came into the school.
Blythe struggled with her locker. "Ugh. What am I, locker challenged? Why won't this thing open?" she then complained.
Mo tried to open the locker, but had the same trouble.
"Hey there!" A boy came over to the two. "Having trouble?"
"Yeah." Mo nodded
"I tried like five times, but I can't seem to get my locker open." Blythe pouted.
"I had the same locker last year," The boy smiled. "There's a trick to it. Mind if I try?"
"Knock yourself out." Mo smiled back.
"Go ahead." Blythe said.
"I'm Jasper Jones, by the way." The boy told them as he took the combination.
"I'm Sue Patterson." A redheaded girl added.
"And I'm Youngmee Song." A second girl stated.
"Nice to meet you all." Mo smiled.
"Which one of you is the new kid?" Youngmee asked.
Blythe smiled sheepishly with a wave of her hand.
"And me," Mo then said. "For the time being."
"Where do you live?" Sue asked.
"On Oak Street," Blythe said. "Our building has a crazy pet shop on the ground floor."
"You mean Littlest Pet Shop?" Jasper beamed. "I love that place!"
"Oh, yeah!" Sue replied. "I heard that since Largest Ever Pet Shop opened, it's stolen a lot of business away from Littlest."
"Why does that not surprise me?" Mo groaned slightly.
"Poor Mrs. Twombly just can't keep up." Jasper frowned.
"So sad." Youngmee added.
"But there must be some way to save Littlest Pet Shop." Mo said.
"You wanna know what's really sad?" Sue replied. "Largest Ever is owned by Fisher Biskit. Father of the unofficial official mean girls of the school."
"The Biskit Twins." Jasper groaned.
"Like, Whittany." Youngmee said, mocking the mean girls.
"And, like, Brittany." Sue added.
"We've, like, met." Blythe even added as she rolled her eyes.
"Yeah, like, unfortunately." Mo said as she made her eyes cross.
This made everyone laugh as they made fun of the Biskit twins who no one really seemed to like.
"Hey, would you like to eat lunch at our table?" Sue invited.
"Yeah, sure." Blythe smiled.
"We'd like that." Mo added.
It was then set and the day passed better than expected and soon, it was lunch time. Mo brought out her own lunch which was mostly vegetarian and which wasn't a surprise for her. Blythe seemed distracted at the table even though she was glad to have made new friends.
"Too much pepper, not enough bay seasoning, soggy bun," Youngmee sighed about her sandwich. "Ugh, how is it legal to call this a fish sandwich?"
Mo simply shrugged.
"It's funny cause it's true," Jasper chuckled. "Right, Blythe?"
"Oh, what? Oh, sorry, Jasper," Blythe said once she came back into reality. "My mind wondered back to the Littlest Pet Shop. See, I promised Russell I would help save it from closing, but... I'm not sure how."
"Russell's one of the pets there." Mo explained.
"You talked to one of the pets?" Jasper asked.
"Oh, no, Mo just means a short guy with spiky hair, definitely not a porcupine." Blythe chuckled sheepishly.
"Oh, right." Mo then smiled nervously.
Eventually, the Biskit twins came over.
"Oh, great, just what we need." Mo glared as she brought out a glass of carrot juice.
"Hello, Blythe," Whittany said before taking the girl's design book to look at it with her twin sister. "You're, like, always carrying this around, aren't you? You must really want people to see your designs."
"Yeah, otherwise you wouldn't, like, carry it around." Brittany added.
"Give it back to Blythe!" Mo glared.
"Ew. 'Blythe Style'? More like Blergh Style," Brittany said in disgust. "So, Blythe. Even though your little drawings aren't that great, if you want to sit at our lunch table, we'll allow it."
"You just insulted her hobby and you want her to sit with you?" Mo deadpanned. "I doubt she'd ever want to even sit with you."
"Ah, that's tempting, but I'm sitting with my new friends for lunch, so... No thanks." Blythe told the evil twins.
"Did she just say 'no' to us again?!" Whittany complained.
"Uh, she did!" Brittany replied.
"Oh, brother." Mo rolled her eyes.
"Listen, Blythe," Whittany began. "By saying no to us-"
"Like, again!" Brittany added.
"You just got on our very bad side." Whittany continued.
"And we heard what you said about Littlest Pet Shop, and you better just stick to designing your little clothes." Brittany added.
"Yeah, because there's nothing you can do to save it!" Whittany concluded before throwing Blythe's book on the floor.
Mo soon picked up Blythe's book before glaring at the evil twins.
"Ooh," Jasper said. "Okay, it's officially official: those girls are mean."
"No doubt, Jasper, but those mean Biskits just gave me a great idea of how to save Littlest Pet Shop!" Blythe replied.
Mo knew what Blythe meant before giving her back her book.
"Thanks, Mo." Blythe smiled.
"You're welcome," Mo smiled back before she soon went back to her food. "What're cousins for?"
Blythe and the others noticed a lot of vegetables on Mo's plate.
"I'm a vegetarian." Mo said.
"So, no fish for you?" Sue asked.
"Eh, sometimes I'll eat it, but I like it better if it doesn't have a face." Mo replied.
"Fair enough." Sue said.
Mo continued to eat her vegetarian lunch, but kept thinking and worrying about Littlest Pet Shop. She soon heard a familiar bark. "Hm?" she then looked around before looking to her backpack and opened it up. "Angel?!"
"Hi." Angel smiled sheepishly.
"Angel, what're you doing here?" Mo whispered as she soon pretended to drop her fork on the floor and came to see her dog.
"I just wanted to make sure Blythe was gonna be okay in school, especially with those Biskit twins." Angel angrily pouted about Brittany and Whittany.
"Blythe's fine," Mo whispered. "She just made some new friends."
"That's good," Angel smiled. "I hope they aren't fake friends though."
"I'm sure they're not." Mo smiled back once she saw how well Blythe was getting along with Sue, Jasper, and Youngmee.
"Great." Angel smiled back.
Mo smiled, but soon hid Angel and apologized for it before sitting back up to Blythe and her new friends.
"Did you find your fork?" Jasper asked.
"Oh, yeah," Mo smiled. "Tricky little thing."
The others looked to her, but soon smiled back as she seemed like a nice girl. After school, Mo and Blythe would come up with the plan.
Eventually, it was time for after school and Mo and Blythe came to the pet shop. The pets seemed to scream and freak out when Angel came to see them.
"What did I miss?" Angel asked.
"I had a terrible dream that those twins were taking over the pet shop!" Vinnie yelped.
"Whoa." Angel said.
"Quiet, everybody," Pepper told the others. "Something's going on up front with Blythe, Mo, and Mrs. Twombly."
"Wow! Blythe and Mo look really excited about something, haha!" Minka laughed.
"I wish we could hear what they're saying." Penny Ling frowned.
"I can hear the mailman from three blocks away." Zoe bragged.
"I know what they're talking about." Angel said.
"Mrs. Twombly, we've got a sure-fire idea for saving Littlest Pet Shop." Blythe smiled to the older woman.
"Uh, got it!" Zoe smiled. "Blythe said that she and Mo that they're sure to set fire to the pet shop."
"Oh, brother." Angel said.
"Wait, that can't be right..." Zoe muttered to herself.
"Ya think?" Angel deadpanned. "Try listening again."
Zoe soon tried again and Angel decided to help out.
"You have a way to save my shop from going out of business?" Mrs. Twombly asked the girls.
"I know it sounds kinda crazy, and we're just a couple of kids, but..." Blythe replied.
"I was just a kid once," Mrs. Twombly smiled. "Tell me your idea."
"Well, you see, I love designing clothes!" Blythe smiled back as Mo let her do the talking. "But I never thought of designing them for pets."
"And we thought about doing a fashion show." Mo said.
"A fashion show?" Mrs. Twombly beamed.
"Yeah, it'll draw in customers." Mo smiled.
"People would come for the show, see the shop, and remember how much they love it." Blythe then added.
"I love it, too!" Mrs. Twombly approved.
Angel smiled as she knew this idea would work.
"And this would be the only place in town where they could buy the clothes!" Blythe then said.
"They are adorable, girls." Mrs. Twombly smiled as she looked through the sketchpad.
"I think it could work, Mrs. Twombly," Blythe said. "At least, it's worth a try."
"Let's do it!" Mrs. Twombly then said.
"Wahoo!" Mo smiled.
Angel and the pets soon also cheered.
"Oh, look at them," Mrs. Twombly smiled. "It's like they knew what we've been talking about."
"Yeah, almost." Mo smiled back.
Eventually, Mo and Blythe made flyers to help save Littlest Pet Shop.
"How do these look?" Blythe asked Mo.
"Oh, those are perfect," Mo smiled. "I'm sure people will love them."
"Yeah, I think so too." Blythe smiled back.
The flyers were soon put up before the show would begin. However, it wouldn't start out perfectly well, because two certain sisters had an evil scheme to help ruin the future of Littlest Pet Shop, and where Mo had a feeling that the evil twins would try something.
"'Pet fashion show to save Littlest Pet Shop from closing'?" Whittany read aloud with a scoff.
"'Blythe Style'?!" Brittany added. "This is a really good idea!"
"Uh, yeah!" Whittany said before taking out a marker. "And we've got to do something to ruin it."
"Oh, right," Brittany added. "And humiliate Blythe and that weird girl who wants to be a boy, like, for good!"
This, of course, proved Mo's feeling to be right.
