Meanwhile at the carnival as it got dark...
"Come on, Drell!" Eloise pulled on the warlock's arm.
"Whoa!" Drell stumbled slightly as he tried to catch up with the kids. "Easy there, Eloise!"
"We don't wanna miss the show." Akito said.
"We'll get there." Drell said, slightly annoyed as these children seemed to rush him.
"Can I ride on your back?" Eloise was about to climb on the warlock's back.
"Sure." Drell groaned.
"Yay!" Eloise climbed on his back and latched herself onto him with a giggle. "Wow, you're much taller than Nanny or Bill."
Drell rolled his eyes with a mumble as he walked with the kids to bring them into the carnival.
"This is going to be so much fun." Teddy smiled as he was out of his Pokeball.
"Stay close to me, Teddy." Estelle warned gently.
"Yes, Mama." Teddy replied.
"I can't wait to have some fun here." The male Ralts smiled.
Drell seemed to suffer as he carried Eloise on his back. Ditto slid up onto Eloise and took the place of her hair ribbon like he would usually do. Emily Elizabeth appeared to be there with her friends already.
"There's Clifford's girl." Dot noticed.
"Let's go say hi." Scruffy smiled.
"Buddy system!" Estelle called out with a small smile.
"You are such a mom." Vincent laughed at his sister.
"So, who's going to be with who?" Jenny asked.
"Uhh..." Estelle scratched her head. "Hold on a second."
Emily Elizabeth laughed as she was with her friends, then looked down to see three familiar puppies. "Oh, hey, little guys!"
Scruffy, Dot, and Weenie smiled up to the blonde girl.
"Where do you think they came from?" A Jamacian boy asked.
"They better not have fleas..." the black-haired girl winced.
Scruffy huffed at that since he knew that he his sister and Weenie didn't have fleas. Dot and Weenie pouted to the black-haired girl.
Emily Elizabeth smiled to the puppies and looked over to Akito, Estelle, and Eloise. "Oh, are these yours?"
"Yes, that's Weenie, Scruffy, and Dot." Eloise smiled.
"I wonder how they got away from us?" Estelle said as Teddy hid behind her.
"They must be really excited." Akito suggested.
"Haven't I seen you somewhere before?" the black-haired girl asked Eloise.
"Probably," Eloise shrugged. "My mother used to live in Paris by herself and worked in the fashion industry."
"Really?" The black-haired girl smiled.
Eloise nodded.
"Who's your mother?" the black-haired girl asked.
"Darla Fudo." Eloise replied.
This caused for the black-haired girl to squeal out of excitement.
"I guess she's a fan of Aunt Darla." Akito said as he gave a small pet to Scruffy as he liked Emily Elizabeth so far.
"I'm her #1 fan." The black-haired girl smiled.
"Um... Well, that's nice to know." Eloise said.
"My name's Jetta Handover..." the black-haired girl shook the blonde girl's hand quickly. "Is your mother here?!"
"Actually, she-" Eloise tried to explain.
"Oh, I hope she's here so then I can get to know the next week's fashion." Jetta smiled.
"Actually-" Eloise tried again.
"I mean, it must be so cool to have her as a mom," Jetta beamed. "I wish she was my mom, not that there's anything wrong with my mom, I mean, my dad travels all the time too, but it'd be great to have a true fashionista in the family!"
"She isn't exactly here." Eloise said.
"What?" Jetta asked.
"She's spending some time with my daddy, so I'm here with my cousins." Eloise smiled.
"Oh..." Jetta frowned.
"Uh, yeah, sorry..." Eloise smiled apologetically.
"Well, at least her daughter is here." Jetta said.
"I suppose so..." Eloise shrugged to that.
"Hi, I'm Charley." the dark-skinned boy smiled.
"Nice to meet you." Estelle said.
"Yeah." Akito smiled.
"Welcome to Birdwell Island," Charley smiled. "You should meet my dad, he makes great food during events like parties or boardwalks."
"We'll try his food sometime." Vincent said.
"I hope the show starts soon," Emily Elizabeth said. "I heard Mrs. Diller and Sheriff Lewis are bringing their dogs too."
"Well, maybe while we're waiting, we could go on one of the rides." Jenny said.
"Oh, can we?!" Eloise beamed.
"Go nuts." Drell replied as he parked himself on a bench.
"Yay!" The kids cheered.
Drell smiled to them as they then rushed off to hang out together until the show would start. Skippy then teleported himself over and crossed his arms, then gestured to the kids in worry.
"Ah, they'll be fine on their own..." Drell shrugged. "What's the worst that could happen?"
Skippy narrowed his eyes at him. Drell leaned back and relaxed. Skippy shook his head and pulled on Drell to make him stand up.
"Oh, come on, they're kids; how much trouble could they get into?" Drell asked.
Skippy's eyes only widened as he expected the worst to come out from the children of Atticus, Cherry, Mo, Forte, and Darla. Drell then went wide eyed as well, remembering them when they were younger. Skippy then grinned darkly slightly.
"We better go keep an eye on them." Drell said.
Skippy nodded until his eyes widened at the 'we' part.
"Hey, you brought yourself here," Drell dragged him. "You're gonna help me."
Skippy begged to not as he felt trapped.
"Sorry, Skippy, but it's just business." Drell replied as he carried Skippy against his will.
"What to ride?" Estelle pondered.
"Mama, can we go on this one?" Teddy pointed to a carousal.
"It looks like Aunt Rarity's shop." Estelle smiled.
"Yeah, it really does." Akito smiled back in agreement.
"Okay, let's go on this ride." Felicity said.
The vendor let the kids go ride on the carousal and let it spin once they were all on.
"Wahoo!" The kids cheered.
The kids laughed and giggled as they rode on the horses with their respective Pokemon. The vendor looked curious of the Pokemon, but allowed them on the ride just this once.
"Yay!" The Pokémon cheered.
"This reminds me of that story where when Aunt Danielle went with Uncle Copper and Uncle Tod to that carnival." Scruffy spoke up as they watched their humans go around and around and around.
"It looks like fun!" Kiki jumped up and down. "Uncle Oliver, I wanna go next!"
"I'm sorry, Kiki, but I'm afraid only humans are allowed on rides," Oliver said. "The vendor is just making an exception for the Pokémon."
"Aww..." Kiki pouted.
Oliver pouted too before smiling. "But you can ride on my back?"
"YEAH!" Kiki jumped on the orange kitten's back right away.
Oliver was happy that he was able to make Kiki happy. Kiki giggled as she rode on Oliver's back. Georgette smiled as Oliver was making Kiki happy.
"He seems like a nice kitten." Cleo said.
"Yeah, I guess I misjudged him." Georgette agreed.
"You did?" Cleo asked.
"I, uh, didn't really like him at first..." Georgette admitted.
"That's understandable, with dogs not liking cats and all." Cleo smiled.
"Exactly!" Georgette replied. "I don't understand how Alonzo and the others didn't mind him..."
"I'm not too crazy about cats either, but he's your family now and I expect you to be nice to him." Cleo warned her sister.
"I am nice to him." Georgette said.
"Good." Cleo smiled.
"Mostly," Georgette smiled shyly. "He did defend me once when we had a crazy adventure with some zoo animals."
"That was nice of him." Cleo smiled.
"Yeah..." Georgette smiled back.
After the carousal the kids then went with their Pokemon onto a Ferris Wheel.
"Yay!" Teddy smiled.
"Hold on, Teddy, I don't want you to fall out." Estelle said as she hooked on her seat-belt and hooked his on.
Teddy smiled and looked around as they were going up and down.
"Ooh." The Ralts twins smiled.
Jenny and Vincent's hands seemed to touch in their cart, and where Vulpix was in the middle. He smirked and moved their hands closer together before cupping his muzzle with his frontal paws and snickering quietly. Vincent and Jenny both blushed a bit. Vulpix smiled up to them. Vincent and Jenny smiled to each other and looked like they were about to kiss. Vulpix soon covered his eyes so he wouldn't be disgusted. There was then a smooching sound heard.
"Yuck," Vulpix muttered before then soon felt them kiss him on the face cheeks. The Fire Fox Pokemon blinked and saw that Jenny and Vincent had kissed his cheeks. "Maaawm! Daaaad!"
This caused Vincent and Jenny to laugh a little.
"Hmph..." Vulpix pouted and folded his frontal paws.
"Silly Vulpix." Vincent chuckled.
Jenny soon giggled a little.
Vulpix pouted to them, but then nuzzled against them.
Soon enough, the Ferris Wheel stopped.
"Okay, we got time for one more ride." Eloise said.
"Ooh, I know just the ride." Charley smiled.
"Lead the way, Charley." Emily Elizabeth smiled to her best friend so they could show their new friends around.
Charley soon lead them all to a ride that looked like it could make anyone that didn't have a strong stomach lose their lunch.
"Are you sure about this?" Jetta sounded nervous.
"Yeah, it's awesome!" Charley insisted before smirking to their new friends playfully. "So, you guys up for it?"
"You know it." Akito smirked back playfully.
"Mama..." Teddy whimpered.
"Oh, Teddy, there, there, you don't have to go if you don't want to." Estelle soothed.
"Thank you, Mama." Teddy smiled.
Estelle smiled back to her Teddiursa and held onto him. "You guys go ahead, we'll wait right here."
"You sure, Sis?" Vincent asked.
"Pretty sure, you guys go ahead, I'll just wait here with Teddy." Estelle promised.
"Okay." Vincent said.
"I think this time me and the others are going to step out of this one." Larvitar added.
"Okay, if you're sure." Charley said as he went ahead with Jetta and Emily Elizabeth.
"Did Charley just agree with whatever that is since we can't understand what any of them other than Akito and the others are saying?" Jetta asked Emily Elizabeth.
Emily Elizabeth suggested.
"I didn't understand him, I just think he's staying behind because Akito isn't going either." Charley told the girls.
"Ohh." Jetta and Emily Elizabeth understood then.
They soon went on the ride. Akito gently patted Larvitar on the head.
"Let's watch how it goes on Clifford." Scruffy said.
"Could he even fit?" Kiki wondered as she stood close to them so she wouldn't get lost.
"I think he means watch how the ride works from above it." Jenny said.
"Oh." Kiki understood then.
Vincent was going on the ride, looking rather sure of himself.
"Oh, Vincent, please, I only have one brother!" Akito called.
"Oh, please, I'm sure this ride is safe." Vincent said.
"Okay, but if you don't make it, could I have some of your pictures from your 'Flashlight Under the Blanket' series?" Akito smiled sheepishly.
Vincent narrowed his eyes. "Sure, why not?" he then deadpanned.
"Thanks!" Akito smiled.
Vincent rolled his eyes and joined Emily Elizabeth, Charley, and Jetta. The others soon got on Clifford. Clifford smiled as he let them ride on his back. The ride that Vincent, Emily Elizabeth, Jetta, and Charley were on soon started to spin around. Some of the people screamed from the ride as they spun around and around and around. Teddy buried his face in Estelle's shirt and she held him while stroking the back of his head. Clifford started to get dizzy as he watched the right going around and around and around.
"Clifford, I think you should stop looking right at them." Scruffy said with a paw to his muzzle.
"I think you're right, Scruffy." Clifford said as his eyes continued to follow the ride's rotation.
Kiki climbed up to the top of Clifford's head and closed the big red dog's eyes.
"Thanks, um, what's your name?" Clifford asked while his eyes were closed.
"I'm Kiki!" the tiny poodle smiled. "You know my Aunt Cleo."
"Oh, yeah," Clifford smiled while his eyes were closed. "Well, thanks Kiki for closing my eyes."
Kiki giggled. "Sure!"
The others smiled to Kiki as she interacted with Clifford.
After the ride was over...
The people who went on the ride cme out and some wobbled due to how fast they were going with the spinning, and where Jetta was one of them.
"You guys okay?" Charley asked.
"Can somebody please stop spinning the fairground?" Vincent asked.
"I think I'm done with rides that spin." Jetta groaned.
"I know how you feel..." Felicity replied.
"Now let's get to the show." Akito said.
"Looks like a good time to go." Emily Elizabeth agreed.
"Which way do we go again?" Eloise asked.
"This way." Charley led the way.
"Lead the way." Estelle said.
Charley took them over to the tent where the show of Larry's Amazing Animals would be.
Scruffy, Dot, and Weenie smiled as they and the other pets would be allowed in as pets seemed to be really best friends to humans on this island. Georgette met T-Bone and was now going with him and her sister to join the show, but she looked a little worried because she didn't know where Kiki was, but trusted the others to keep an eye on her.
"Mama, I'm up here!" Kiki called down from Clifford's head.
"Kiki?" Georgette looked over.
"Hey, Big Guy." Cleo smiled to the big red dog who was a good friend of hers.
"Hey, Cleo, where's T-Bone?" Clifford asked since he didn't see T-Bone with them.
Cleo looked around. "He was right here, I let him meet Georgette..."
"I think I saw him go and grab something to eat." Georgette said.
"Sounds like T-Bone to me," Clifford laughed. "Hope he doesn't miss the show."
T-Bone soon enough came back with a sandwich in his mouth.
"There you are, T-Bone." Cleo said.
"Yeah, you almost missed the show." Clifford added in.
"Sorry, but I needed a pre-show meal." T-Bone muffled, and he then then ate the whole sandwich in one gulp before belching.
Kiki giggled.
"Uh, 'scuse me." T-Bone smiled sheepishly after he finished the sandwich.
"Reminds me of Uncle Rolly." Scruffy laughed with his sister who agreed with him 100% there.
"Come on, we don't wanna miss the show." Snow White said.
The pets, Pokemon, and kids then went into the big tent to see the show up close.
