When Peewit, the Smurfs, and the pixies got back there was even more cheering. Papa Smurf then announced that the pixies will be moving into the forest within the boundaries of the protection spell. After the seeds and cutting were planted in a good moist spot, the celebration picked up again and lasted so long that the guests had to sleepover. The humans of course camped outside, while the smaller guests picked out a Smurf home to sleep in. Marina obviously slept over at Handy's house (he quickly built a bed for her), while Aquarius and Nereus slept inside Papa Smurf's house. Periwinkle obviously slept inside Vanity's house in a temporary bed Handy made for her. The pixies, used to sleeping outside, slept among the trees surrounding the village. Pansy on the other hand, slept over at Clumsy's house so they could continue talking.
"This is Smurfy Pansy, we can hang out more without either Gargamel or the wartmongers threatening us." Clumsy smiled.
"This is especially Smurfy because there's been something I've been meaning to tell you." Pansy said.
"Uh, what's that Pansy?" Clumsy asked.
"I-I love you." Pansy admitted, blushing.
"I-I love you too Pansy." Clumsy smiled.
They both kissed, this time not on the cheek.
The next day, the Smurfs and pixies prepared to say goodbye to the other guests. Handy came outside last. With a small package.
"Marina, before our guests leave there's something I want to ask you." Handy said.
"What is it my darling?" Marina smiled.
Handy kneeled and opened the package, revealing a ring made out of the dried flower he prepared the day before.
"Will you marry me?" Handy asked.
"Of course I will." Marina smiled.
Handy slipped the flower ring on her finger, and they kissed. Everyone else cheered. Since Handy and Marina wanted the wedding to be as stunning as possible, preparations would take a long time. This would give the guests plenty of time to freshen up. Aquarius and Nereus, since they had to be rolled down to the river, were the last to leave.
"I will miss you father, you too Nereus." Marina said.
"As will, we, but we're proud of you." Aquarius smiled.
The three of them hugged.
"I'll take good care of Atlantica for you." Nereus smiled.
"I know you will." Marina smiled back.
"Besides," Nereus added. "We won't be gone that long. We wouldn't miss the wedding for the world."
Aquarius and Nereus then turned to Handy.
"I know you will take good care of my daughter." Aquarius smiled.
"You bet your Smurf I will." Handy shook Aquarius's hand.
"I'm honored to have you for a cousin-in-law." Nereus slapped a hand on Handy's shoulder in a friendly manner.
"Thank you." Handy said before hugging Nereus.
Nereus was a little startled, but that passed quickly and he returned the hug.
Days passed as the wedding preparations were made. It was two weeks before everything was ready. Smurfette and Tailor Smurf worked together to make Marina's gown (the other Smurfs still had their old wedding outfits). Greedy Smurf, well, you know. Hefty was obviously the best man, and Smurfette was obviously the maid of honor. Brainy Smurf offered to be the minister:
"Now I think that I should preside over the wedding because I always knew that these two were meant to be and furthermore..."
He was immediately pelted with tomatoes.
"That's officially Papa Smurf's job peabrain!" Hefty retorted.
"Well, I only wanted to help." Brainy said, confused.
The altar was made out of flowers, including ocean flowers, and Mother Nature had made sure that the wedding day was extra beautiful. The wedding went without a hitch, and Handy and Marina exchanged their vows.
"By the power vested in me, I now pronounce you Smurf and wife." Papa Smurf smiled.
Handy and Marina kissed, and all the Smurfs and guests cheered. When the bouquet was tossed, Pansy caught it. She and Clumsy both blushed.
Aquarius and Nereus would miss Marina, and Marina would miss them, but they promised to visit the Smurfs often.
The next year, Clumsy and Pansy were married. The wedding was similar to Handy and Marina's wedding, except Brainy was the best man, Elderberry was the maid of honor, and instead of ocean flowers pussywillows were mixed with the other flowers.
Then, later that year, a blue moon happened! The Smurfs were shocked, because it was way too early for a blue moon. Even more surprising, the stork did deliver a baby Smurf, but instead of handing it to Papa Smurf the stork gave it to Handy and Marina! When they looked in the basket they saw that the baby Smurf had ears and hair like Marina's! So as not to confuse Handy and Marina's baby with Baby Smurf they named this new Smurf Baby Smurfmaid.
The following year, there was another blue moon, but everyone realized that it was just Clumsy and Pansy's baby. This baby looked more like a Smurf than Baby Smurfmaid did, except she had shimmering green pixie wings and red hair. No one, not even Papa Smurf, could understand the color of the wings at first, but then Elderberry guessed that her Smurf genes caused a new color in the wings. They named this baby Baby Smurfpixie.
A couple years later, Johan and Savina were married too. Dame Barbra wasn't pleased, but Savina's uncle was fully supportive of the couple and there was no arguing with him. Their child became the future ruler of Savina's kingdom.
