Atticus then went to find Miley's older brother while Darla went upstairs as Miley compared dresses with Lilly and Vita's help.

"What's with the dresses?" Darla asked.

"Miley has a date." Lilly replied.

"Lilly!" Miley yelped.

"What?" Lilly smirked. "Travis asked you out this evening, if that's not a date, I don't know what is."

"That awesome!" Darla smiled.

"Now, you're talking," Vita smiled to one dress. "Oh, that is the one."

"Yeah, it would be, but she's not goin'." Robbie Ray's voice replied.

"What do you mean?" Darla frowned.

"Hey, she's the one that promised Loralei that Hannah would be the guest of honor at the mayor's big lobster hoo-hah tonight." Robbie Ray defended.

"Actually, Lilly did." Miley replied.

"Actually, Hannah did." Lilly argued.

"But I promised Travis." Miley then said.

"Hmm... Maybe some Moon Power will help." Darla suggested.

"Moon Power?" Miley and Lilly asked.

"You know what? Then I'll just leave it up to you," Robbie Ray told the girls before taking his leave. "You do whatever you think is right."

Darla soon brought out her Moon Staff.

"So, what're you gonna do with that?" Lilly asked Darla.

"Split Miley and Hannah." Darla said.

Miley and Lilly looked to each other in slight concern. Darla waved her Moon Staff and soon zapped Miley with it to do what she wanted to have happen. Suddenly, Hannah came out as her own persona as a split part from Miley's regular high school student persona from pop star persona.

"Perfect!" Darla smiled.

"Man, that toy is amazing." Lilly said about the Moon Staff.

"It is not a toy," Darla rolled her eyes. "It's an actual Moon Staff that I got from The Sailor Scouts."

"So, now while I'm at the mayor's lobster hoo-hah..." Hannah smiled.

"I'll be on a date with Travis." Miley smiled back.

"Now I'm not sure how long the magic lasts on someone else who isn't Sailor Moon." Darla said.

"Aw, come on, what could possibly go wrong?" Miley asked.

Darla sighed and shook her head. "And then something will go wrong worse than Cherry's luck against The Netherworld's Rules."


Later on, everyone else was getting ready for the lobster party with the mayor, but no one was more excited than Bud as he loved seafood more than anybody, Darla and the others were also included.

"I'll eat your lobster, Shell." Bud smiled to his wife since she didn't really eat seafood.

"Oh, Bud." Michelle rolled her eyes with a smirk.

"What?" Bud shrugged innocently. "I just love eating seafood."

"Yes, yes, I know," Michelle giggled. "Much like your daughter."

"I am a little hungry." Cherry wearily smiled to her parents about going along just for the lobster.

"So, you just want to know if I've seen any girls named Laura?" Jackson asked Atticus.

"Exactly." Atticus replied.

"Laura?" Jackson asked. "I think I saw a fifth grade girl with her friend with that name earlier."

"Yeah?" Atticus replied.

"They're probably at their hotel," Jackson nodded. "I was teaching them horseback riding... One girl looked so sad and was crying about a hamster."

"I think this little guy might be the hamster she, uh, lost." Atticus said as he showed Hamtaro.

"Like I have time to help some kid find her missing pet rat-" Jackson scoffed and rolled his eyes before he even fell victim to Hamtaro's adorableness. "Oh, my gosh, so cute!"

"Do you happen to know which hotel they're in?" Atticus asked.

"Uh..." Jackson shook his head to focus to the task at hand. "I think one of their parents said at the Nashville Inn."

"Nashville Inn," Atticus repeated to memorize. "Thanks!"

Jackson nodded. Atticus revved himself up and soon zipped off to the hotel.


Meanwhile in the hotel...

"Oh, where is Hamtaro?" Laura sniffled as she sat on her bed. "How could I lose him? I should've listened to Mom and Dad, they said he'd be better off back home with Brandy!"

"I'm sure he'll turn up, Laura." Kana soothed her best friend.

"How?" Laura pouted. "It's not like he's just going to appear by the knock of the front door."

There was then a knock at the door suddenly.

"Oh, I'm so sorry," Laura's father named Forrest came to the door to see Atticus as he spoke English. "Our daughter isn't really in the mood for company right now."

"I understand, sir, but I have something your daughter might want." Atticus bowed.

"Well, if you say so..." Forrest shrugged.

Atticus came into the room. "Laura?"

"Yes?" Laura sniffled as she looked up from her best friend's shoulder.

Atticus held out his hands to show a blanket covered lump before removing the blanket.

"Hamtaro, it's you!" Laura beamed and took her hamster.

Hamtaro smiled back at his owner as he was happy to be back with her.

"Oh, Hamtaro, you're safe," Marian smiled with her husband before looking to Atticus. "Thank you so much."

"How can we ever repay you?" Forrest asked Atticus as he reached for his wallet.

"No reward needed; I'm just happy that the little guy got back to his owner." Atticus smiled.

"Are you sure?" Forrest asked.

"I insist," Atticus bowed to them. "You're all very welcome, and believe me, I'm sure he missed you all too."

Laura soon put Hamtaro next to her best friend's hamster.

"Hamtaro!" Oxnard beamed.

"Oxnard!" Hamtaro smiled.

"Are you alright?" Oxnard asked.

"I'm fine, but I met the most helpful people!" Hamtaro replied. "I can't wait to tell you and the other Ham-Hams all about it!"

Atticus soon made his way back to the others.

"Thank you so much, sir," Laura smiled to Atticus. "I don't know what I'd do if I never saw him again."

"You're welcome." Atticus said.

Laura then hugged him. Atticus smiled and gently patted her on the head before going back to the others. So far, everything seemed like it would be just fine, but not for long.


Hannah soon came out of the limo and was met by screaming fans as she came to the mayor's lobster dinner as Miley then met up with Travis at an Italian diner.

"Hey there!" Miley smiled to her date.

"Miley!" Travis smiled back to her and held out the bouquet of flowers he bought for their date. "For you."

"Aw, thanks." Miley smiled.

The two then sat down across from each other so they could begin their date.


"Smile!" Vita smiled as she took a picture of Hannah. "Perfect!"

"Where's Miley?" Loralei asked Ruby. "She should be here by now."

"Um, she's on a date." Darla spoke up.

"A date?" Loralei asked.

"Yeah, ah, you know, teenagers..." Darla smiled nervously. "What can ya do?"

"And it's with Travis." Amber added.

Robbie Ray and Ruby looked relieved that the girls helped out with that.

"If everyone could please take their seats." Loralei clapped her hands to the crowd to have them sit down at the dining table.

Darla soon found a book on her magic in her pocket in her dress.

"Come on, Darla, we need to sit down." Amber told her best friend.


Darla nodded before she reached out and took out the book while going to sit down, and it seemed to have answers to about how long her magic would last. The Mayor spoke to everyone. Darla listened mostly, but was mostly reading the book to see how long her Moon Power would last with Hannah being here while Miley was on her date with Travis. It would only last until dessert. The Mayor soon gave a speech to his guests, though mostly to Hannah as a thank you for her. Jackson had something in his own pocket who looked attracted to a design on a woman's purse before sinking into the boy's pocket like it had fainted. Mo had a feeling she knew what it was.

'Oh, this is bad.' Darla thought to herself as she glanced out the nearby window as Travis and Miley enjoyed their date and she looked toward the Hannah double. "Uh, I need to be excused!" She raised her hand quickly which made everyone look at her before she soon rushed out. "I... Uh... Need to check something..."

The others looked around curiously about Darla as she suddenly left.

"Where's Dimples going this time?" Cherry wondered.

The others simply shrugged.

"Maybe I should go check on my fans?" Hannah suggested.

"That sounds like a good idea." Annabelle agreed.

Hannah opened the window and the fans chanted her name.

"We need to go to the bathroom!" Annabelle said before taking Lilly's hand and running with her. "Lilly, come with us."

"Um, okay?" Lilly said out of confusion.

Amber came along with Annabelle, Lilly, Hannah, and Darla.

"What's going on, Darla?" Lilly asked.

"This Hannah double is going to dissolve by the time Miley and Travis eat dessert on their date!" Darla told her frantically.

"Uh-oh." The girls gulped.

"Yeah..." Darla nodded frantically.

"When will that be?" Hannah asked.

"We can't take any chances, Lilly, dress up like Hannah, and fast!" Darla panicked.

"What?!" Lilly gawked at her.

"I dunno, but somebody do something!" Darla panicked. "I don't know what to do, I'm just a kid!"

"Don't worry," Lilly said. "I'm sure that everything will be fine."

"I just... We... I... Hannah... You..." Darla yelped before hyperventilating.

"Darla, settle down!" Amber told her best friend. "You're babbling!"

"Just calm down." Annabelle added.

Darla soon took a deep breath for ten seconds before breathing out. "Sorry about that, guys."

"It's okay." Amber said.

"We just can't let the magic wear off," Darla tried to settle down. "People will know something's up, and we can't let Miley down!"

"One of us will have to go and tell Miley then." Annabelle said.

"I should go," Darla replied. "I got Miley and Hannah into this mess, and I used my Moon Power."

"Alright, but hurry." Hannah allowed.

Darla nodded and then went off as quickly as she could to see Miley and Travis. Everyone else went upstairs while she went downstairs toward the exit as she rushed to where the young future couple was having their date.


Miley and Travis smiled to each other as Darla rushed over as fast as she could run. Miley soon saw Darla. Darla gave a wave.

Travis turned around and then he saw Darla. "Oh, isn't that one of yer younger friends?"

"Uh, yeah," Miley said. "I better go and see what she wants."

Travis allowed her to go as he stayed where he was.


Miley came out to see the blonde girl. "Darla, what the heck are you doin' here?"

"We have a problem." Darla said.

"What kinda problem?" Miley asked.

"My magic will only last until it's time for dessert." Darla informed.

"And, um, that's bad?" Miley asked.

"Yes, you're running out of time!" Darla replied. "I'm sorry, Miley, but I'm still learning."

"Don't worry," Miley said. "I'm sure that everything will be fine."

"I don't know..." Darla replied. "I'm still new to my Moon Magic."

"Alright, if it will ease your worries; I'll end my date before dessert." Miley said.

"That would probably be best," Darla agreed. "So, how's it going?" She then smirked. "Did ya kiss him yet?"

"No, not yet..." Miley said.

"Well, it doesn't hurt to ask." Darla giggled innocently.

"Don't you have a lobster hoo-hah to get to?" Miley asked.

"All right, all right, I'll go back before people miss me," Darla replied. "Have a good date."

"See ya, Darla." Miley waved off the blonde girl as she went back to the dinner with the mayor. Luckily for her, sh didn't miss much.


Amber and Annabelle smiled in relief to see their friend back. The rest of the meal was great. Michelle smiled as she talked with the mayor and laughed out loud at some stories. Cherry rolled her eyes since her mother was being quite loud before she decided to go sit where her friends were.

"So, your mother seems to be having a good time." Mo commented.

"Yeah," Cherry replied. "You know... My father's very business, and my mother's very social."

Lilly gasped as she accidentally let a piece fall into the Mayor's wife's hair. Cherry cupped her mouth and snickered to that. Hannah began to try to not laugh.

"So, Hannah," Loralei spoke up with a smile. "You must have a lot of wonderful stories to tell."

"Not really, I mean there are just so many," Hannah replied nervously as everyone looked at her. "But I don't want this evening to be all about me. I mean, everybody's stories are important, right, Jackson?"

"Huh?" Jackson replied as he fidgeted slightly in his seat.

"Oh, right, Jackson, tell us about college!" Amber joined in. "Darla's brother will be in college soon himself!"

"Yeah, so tell us." Darla added.

"Yeah, my classes," Jackson stammered as he had a hard time sitting still. "Uh... I really like... I think my favorite part is... Dad, that your little boy is growing up into a man."

"That's a boy?" Bud whispered to Michelle as she sipped her unsweetened ice tea.

Something soon seemed to slip out of Jackson's clothes.

"I guess that's a yes." Michelle smirked to her husband.

"Oops, dropped my napkin." Jackson said quickly before ducking under the table.

Atticus soon looked under the table to see what dropped out of Jackson's clothing. "Is that a weasel?" he asked himself.

"Harlow!" Jackson whispered loudly.

Atticus soon decided to just let Jackson handle the weasel. Hannah and Jackson were soon under the table together to get the ferret before anybody would see him.

"GHOST!" Bud yelped as a dinner cart was wheeling by itself. "Run!"

Michelle sighed and face-palmed her husband. "I'm sure there's a reason how it's moving." She assured him.

Bud and Michelle soon had a random and childish argument which was amusing and annoying for their daughter.

"Oi..." Cherry sunk in her chair.

Atticus soon stopped the dinner cart.

"See? It's fine, Bud!" Michelle told her husband.

"I still don't trust ghosts." Bud muttered.

Atticus glared at that comment before calming down.


"I'm so glad you split Miley and Hannah in two," Amber smiled to her best friend. "I mean, can you imagine how hard it would be to balance them out?"

"I had a feeling deep down inside," Darla nodded. "I guess that's what Atticus calls instinct."

"Yeah, and look on the bright side, it isn't even time for dessert yet." Annabelle smiled.

"Dessert, anyone?" Loralei asked which made Darla, Amber, and Annabelle panic.

Hannah looked like her body was about to float away.

"I'm sure you've all heard of Baked Alaska, well, Tennessee Flambé." Loralei presented.

The chef at the cart soon lit the dessert on fire which was part of the dish.

"Uh, Darla, Hannah's floating." Amber whispered to her best friend.

"Uh-oh..." Darla whispered back.

"Is this a magic thing?" Michelle asked Cherry.

"I dont' think so." Cherry shrugged.

"We better distract everyone." Bud whispered.

"Any bright ideas, Daddy Dearest?" Cherry smirked.

Bud began to think until he came up with something. "I got an idea!"

"Yikes." Cherry and Michelle deadpanned.

"Just hear me out." Bud smiled to his wife and daughter.

"All right, Bud," Michelle replied with a sigh. "Thrill us."

Bud began to whisper his idea to both of them. Michelle and Cherry listened in intrigue. Darla began to take a look at her book again to see if it maybe had a solution to this problem. She soon heard a weasel scurrying on the floor.

"Mr. Mayor, would you like to say a few final words?" Loralei requested.

"Oh, yes, yes," The Mayor smiled before he stood up from his seat, not noticing the weasel was on its way up his pant leg. "Not many people know that the Tennessee Flambé was actually invented by-"

"And in 3, 2, 1." Darla whispered.

The Mayor then yelped suddenly which concerned some of the other guests. Hannah was now able to float away to the revolving door.

"Hannah?!" Loralei asked.

"Dad, your plan?!" Cherry frantically reminded her father.

Bud soon set one of the decorations on fire 'by accident'.

"BUD!" Michelle instinctively shouted.

"Oh, no, fire!" Bud called out. "Women and children first, that, uh, means my little Cher Bear."

"I'm already on my way!" Cherry panicked.


Everyone then rushed out to evacuate the building. Miley and Hannah were soon brought back together in the revolving door. Hannah soon seemed to either away and disappear back into Miley and the two soon became one once more, and where one of the fans, a little girl, and Travis had seen her as both there.

"Uh-oh..." Darla, Amber, and Annabelle muttered.

"Travis, please let me explain." Miley rushed toward her date.

"I think we better go." Darla said as she was about to leave.

Amber and Annabelle nodded as they joined their friend.

"It's so good that you helped her out though." Annabelle soothed.

"Yes, Darla," Amber agreed. "You truly have a heart as golden as your hair."

"Thanks, girls." Darla smiled.

Annabelle and Amber smiled back and they shared a best friend hug all together. Things seemed to be falling apart for the Stewart family however. It was even worse due to the rain as it didn't help anyone's situation any.
