Evangeline's Doll

by ElectropopHearts

Evangeline, a typical six year old girl, is in possession of a little wooden doll. But this doll is no toy...it is, in fact, the key to an underground cave near the center of the Earth. If the cave is opened, all feelings on Earth will be permanently wiped out, and Care-a-Lot will be destroyed! Can Evangeline and the Care Bears keep the doll out of No Hearts' evil clutches?

Chapter 3

"…Three, two, one, stare!"

Once again, hearts and stars shot out from the bear's abdomens, but the Cousins shot out music notes. The bull fell, but managed to get up again and stormed into the hall.

'Oh I wish I could help!' Evangeline thought. 'But I'm just a little kid.' Evangeline felt a tear run down her cheek. She watched Harmony Bear and Loyal Heart dog play an intense game of 'monkey in the middle' with the bull, who was raging mad. They tossed the doll around, not knowing what else to do. Then, Tender Heart suddenly had an idea.

"Harmony Bear! Throw it to me!" He yelled. The dark purple bear hurled the doll in his direction, causing the bull to become even madder. "Evangeline! Catch!" the brown bear yelled.

The girl looked up and caught little Thelma, put her in the little brown bag, and sprinted out of the hall.

The bull thrashed its head around and raced after her. The little girl couldn't even feel the pain in her legs. Adrenalin. That's what it must've been.

She ran behind one of the houses, and the bull raced right past her. She almost screamed in pain. It seemed as though her legs were on fire.

Evangeline had to think fast. How could she protect Thelma from No Heart? And, how could she get rid of him?

The soft fluffy clouds gave her a brilliant idea. She buried Thelma and made sure she was well hidden, then took a little bit of the cloud fluff and put it in her brown bag. She peeked out of the corner and started to run towards the Hall of Hearts.

No Heart saw her and charged. Evangeline stopped running and stood there like a deer in the headlights. She moved out of the way and the bull stopped. He turned and growled at the girl, who stood there frozen.

No Hearts changed back to his normal form and screamed "GIVE ME THAT DOLL!"

Evangeline was putting on an act. She wasn't really scared! She knew that Thelma was safely buried in the clouds, and she'd be handing No Heart a bag with nothing but cloud fluff in it.

She screamed, dropped the bag, and ran away. No Heart picked up the bag, laughed evilly and shouted. "Finally! After all these years, I have won the battle!" The villain changed into a tornado and disappeared.

Swift Heart Rabbit saw the whole thing. Her eyes widened. 'How could she do that? She obviously dropped that bag on purpose! We're doomed! I...I've got to warn the others!"
And with that, the blue rabbit ran as fast as she could back to the Hall of Hearts.
