Sharpie addict: and now, dear friends, we have come to the end of this tale. If you want more, review and ask for a sequel. I just made more paper children, so we'll more than happily oblige.

Rose: I need paper children…TT_TT

Epilogue: the aftermath.

"I'm telling you, they probably moved!" Anna whispered to Melissa. Melissa rolled her eyes.

"Fine. For talking about this all the way up to and back from the ice cream shop, you owe me ten bucks if they didn't move," Melissa growled back.

"Ditto to that," Anna hissed. They pulled up to the house, and Anna hopped out as soon as the car came to a standstill. "Pressing the pause button…NOW!" She shouted, causing her mom to look at her funny. Melissa laughed and the two made their way upstairs.

"Why is there a burnt Happily Ever After: Stories of Children's Health and Recovery book in the microwave?" Anna's mom asked from the kitchen. Anna and Melissa exchanged glances and raced upstairs, taking the steps two at a time.

Anna thrust the door open, and found all of the dolls completely not where they had been; all except Tobi and Deidara, but Deidara hadn't been crying and clinging to the bar for dear life when they left. Melissa picked up the little rope ladder Anna had made from string and McDonalds straws for no reason. "Wasn't this on the desk?" She asked, following the ladder up to the bookcase, where the paper child Rose was reading a book.

Anna raced over, stepping nimbly between horribly rotting food and a couple of hairballs, pointing at the book. "That was in my "Whatever I decide to throw in there" drawer!" She said. Melissa pointed at a frozen paper child Envy, who was most certainly not fighting Ed, like he had been when they left. Anna followed her finger and burst out laughing, then pointed to Ed, who was on top of her deck of Pokémon cards.

They pressed play, and the paper children told them the story I just told you.

FIN!
