"So you saying that a lot have happened after me and me son were frozen?" Cavey asked once the two girls finished.
"Yeah" said Dee Dee "You'd be amazed at all the things we invented"
"Like those strange things on your feet?" Junior asked as he pointed to Dee Dee and Taffy's boots.
"Pretty much." Dee Dee nodded
"Unga, one thing for sure is that history sure gave us some Angels" said Cavey, referring to Taffy.
Dee Dee and Taffy shared a glance at each other upon the remark.
"Are there more of you beautiful angels here?" asked Junior.
"Well...um, pretty much." Taffy replied.
"That's great" said Junior "So where are they?"
"I think they're probably asleep right now" said Dee Dee "Maybe we should sleep on what to do with you two"
"Maybe we could stay with you two" Cavey grinned "Me would love to share room with you lovely Angels"
"Wait, how are we going to tell our parents, Dee Dee?" Taffy asked.
Dee Dee slapped her head "Oh snap. I totally forgot about that! I can't just waltz up and say 'Hey Pop! We got a couple of cavemen we found frozen in a block of ice'.
"But I don't wanna lie to my mama and daddy" said Taffy "So what do we do, Dee Dee?"
Before Dee Dee could answer, Professor Pericles happened to be flying towards the lobby after being dispatched by Ricky and Cassidy to find the girls.
"Dee Dee! Taffy!" the parrot called out "Where are you? It's late and you two had better get some sleep"
"Holy cow!" Dee Dee exclaimed "Its my Uncle Pericles! What do we do?"
Before anyone could think of anything, Pericles flew right towards them.
"Hello girls" he said "Fancy meeting you here"
"Oh hello, professor" Taffy chuckles nervously.
"What are you two doing down here so late?" asked Pericles "And why are there two hairy guys by the fire place?"
"Hairy?" Cavey muttered.
"What is going on?" asked Pericles.
"I um, don't know what you're talking about, uncle" Dee Dee smiled nervously.
"You had better spill the beans, Dee Dee Sykes or I'm telling your parents" Pericles said as he pointed his finger at Dee Dee.
"What's that creature with feathers?" Junior asked.
"Unga, it look like some kind of bird, son" Cavey examined Pericles "And it wearing scarf"
The girls looked at each other, not sure what to do.
Dee Dee sighed "Fine. I'll tell. We were looking for the prince's missing scepter and came across these two, who were frozen in a block of ice so we brought them back here to thaw out"
"Oh really?" Pericles remarked, raising an eyebrow, and the two girls nodded. "Vell, then. And what's this missing scepter you vere talking about?"
The girls wasted no time in explaining the situation to Pericles; how the prince's scepter got stolen by some sort of monster and that they were intending to find the yeti and get the scepter back.
"I see." Pericles nodded understandingly.
"That's why we are going to solve the mystery" Taffy said "Just like you and Dee-Dee's parents, aunt and uncle did when you were our age"
"Yeah, we could start our own mystery solving club" Dee Dee nodded.
"That is such a coincidence" said Pericles "A couple of weeks ago, your Cousin Freddy started a mystery solving club of his own"
"Was he the one with the talking dog?" Taffy asked.
"That is correct." Pericles nodded.
"Zowie!" Taffy exclaimed "Your cousin has a talking dog, Dee Dee"
"But where was I during this?" Dee Dee folded her arms.
"What do you mean?" Taffy asked.
"I mean why wasn't I informed of this?" Dee Dee explained "Freddy is my cousin, so I have a right to know if he has a talking dog or not. Not to mention starting his own mystery solving team"
"I thought you might've read about it in the news." Taffy shrugged.
"I did, but I didn't think it was true" Dee Dee remarked "Whoever heard of a talking dog?"
"You should visit your Cousin Freddie and see for yourself someday." Pericles said.
"Yeah, I guess I should" said Dee Dee "And besides, if he can start a mystery solving team, then so can I"
"That's great, Dee" said Taffy "So how do we start one?"
"Good question, Taffy" Dee Dee remarked "Do you know how, Uncle Pericles?"
"Well, first off, you girls are going to need someone of specialty." Pericles replied. "Like, someone with abilities regular human beings don't have, like me for instance and Cousin Freddie's talking dog."
"Like a goofy mascot?" asked Dee Dee.
"Technically, yes" Pericles deadpanned.
"How about Cavey and Cavey Jr?" Taffy suggested as she pointed to Cavey and his son.
"Why them?" asked Dee Dee.
"I thought they may be interested in helping us fighting bad guys." Taffy pointed out.
"That true" said Cavey "We are worlds first superheroes, so we will help you fight crime"
"We sure will or my name isn't Captain Caveman Junior II!" Junior exclaimed.
"What exactly can you guys do?" Pericles asked.
"We fly, we super strong and we have lot of things in fur that can help" Cavey replied.
"Plus, we're immune to cooties" Junior added "So I don't have to worry about getting kissed by girls"
Dec 17The two girls looked at each other.
"That we gotta see." Dee Dee remarked.
Dec 17Cavey then raised his club "Captain CAAAVEMAAAANNNN!"
Cavey then soared up into the air.
"And son!" Junior added as he flew into the air with his father.
The two were flying around the three in circles and finally landed on the ground.
The girls and Pericles were stunned.
"Now is that proof enough for you?" asked Cavey.
"Zowie" Taffy exclaimed "I'm impressed"
"But I'm still skeptical about that 'having stuff in fur' thing you mentioned" Dee Dee remarked.
"Me will show." Cavey replied as he proceeded to reach into his fur.
He reached into his fur and took many things including a skateboard made from a bone, a bike made from rocks, dinosaurs, pterosaurs, mammoths, saber tooth tigers, ground sloths, birds, clubs and so much more.
Junior did the same and took out miniature versions of the things that his father took out.
"See? Authentic prehistoric artifacts and animals" Junior exclaimed.
The girls and Pericles whistled.
"Zowie, that is so convenient" said Taffy.
"Then it's settled" said Dee Dee "Captain Caveman is our sidekick"
"Good" Pericles nodded "Now all you need is an additional member. After all, you can't have a mystery solving team with just two teenagers and a goofy sidekick"
At that moment, the girls remembered Brenda.
"Say, how's Brenda with her leg?" Taffy asked.
"I guess we better go check on her before hitting the sack." Dee Dee suggested.
"Good idea." Pericles nodded. "I'll come with you girls."
The girls, Pericles and the Cavemen walked to the resort hospital.
Meanwhile in Brenda's recovery room, she and Otto were having a wonderful time together; telling anecdotes, sharing some thoughts and sharing stories about things that happened in their lives.
By that point, Brenda was getting tired and her eyelids were feeling heavy.
"Wow Brenda, you must be tired" said Otto.
"Yeah" Brenda said groggily "Thanks for taking care of me, Otto"
"Sure, anytime" Otto said as he held Brenda's hands "You know Brenda, I would really like you to come back to Pastavazoolastan with me. We'd make you a princess, you'd have everything you could ever want"
Brenda smiled and blushed. "Sounds...promising."
"Yeah, you're probably the nicest and most wonderful person I've met since I've been in this country" Otto looked into her eyes.
"Really?" Brenda blushed.
"Really, really" Otto nodded.
As the pair looked at each other, Taffy, Dee Dee and Pericles happened to reach Brenda's room door at that moment.
The two then got startled and stopped what they were doing.
"What're you doing?" asked Dee Dee.
"Nothing" Brenda and Otto quickly said.
There was some awkward silence in the room.
"Maybe we'll just come back tomorrow" Dee Dee said as she, Taffy and Pericles left the room.
The door closed, leaving the two lovers alone in the room again.
"Boy, that was pretty weird" Otto chuckles nervously.
"Yeah, it really was" Brenda blushed harder "So what were you saying about me going back to Pastavazoolastan with you?"
"That's right." Otto nodded.
"You'd really like me to come live with you at the palace and become a princess?" Brenda asked as her eyes grew bigger.
"I'd be happy to." Otto nodded. "But my parents will have to be okay with that, not to mention that if you were to become my princess, you must become a citizen of Pastavazoolastan in order to be accepted by my people, who are going to view you as our future queen when I take the throne someday."
"Golly, it sounds awfully risky" Brenda remarked.
"Indeed it is" Otto nodded.
"But...I'd be more than willing to take those chances, if it means we can see each other every day and be together forever" Brenda smiled at him.
"Glad to hear." Otto nodded.
"You are such a gentlemen" said Brenda "My Prince Charming"
Otto and Brenda joined each other hand in hand and looked into each other's eyes so lovingly. Their faces got closer to each other and they slowly started to close their eyes as their faces got closer and closer.
Meanwhile, Pericles and the girls were back at the fireplace.
"Gee, Brenda and the prince must really be getting acquainted" Pericles remarked.
"Yeah." Taffy nodded. "That appears to be the case."
"I think Brenda's fallen in love with the prince" Dee Dee stated "I mean just look at her when she's with him. She obviously likes him"
"I hope she doesn't try anything risky, though" Taffy remarked.
The others shrugged and nodded in agreement before noting the time.
"Well, we better hit the sack." Dee Dee said before yawning.
"Good idea" said Taffy "I could use my beauty sleep"
"Indeed" said Pericles "Shall we retire?"
"We shall" Dee Dee nodded.
"But what about Cavey and his son?" Taffy pointed to the two Neanderthals.
"Oh yes, that." Pericles said as they looked at the two cavemen.
"Well it's late and I can't explain them to my folks yet, I guess we'll have to have them sleep with us" said Dee Dee.
"Good idea, Dee" said Taffy "They look so cute. Like two furry pillows. It's like I have my teddy bear with me"
"Well, anyways, we'd better get to bed." Pericles said.
"Good idea" said Junior "I'm real tired after being frozen for millions of years"
"Me too" Cavey yawned.
"Are we really going to sleep with you beautiful angels?" asked Junior "I've always wanted to know what it was like to sleep with an angel, since I don't know who my momma is"
"Seems like to be the case." Cavey said as they looked at Taffy.
"So are we?" Junior asked as he made puppy dog eyes at Taffy.
"Yes." Taffy nodded.
"Hooray!" Junior cheered as he flew into the air and landed into Taffy's arms "Thank you momma"
Junior hugged Taffy's neck and kissed her lips.
Soon, the cavemen were fast asleep in Taffy's hotel room. Little did they realize that the next day is about to take an interesting turn.
