"Why does it always seem to rain whenever people get upset?" Darla frowned.

"I always had a theory that it's the angels from Heaven trying to sympathize." Atticus said as he held his little sister in comfort.

Darla simply sighed.

Cherry walked over. "Hey, you guys okay?"

"Darla's a little upset..." Atticus told her.

"Ah, yeah, the Moon Power thing," Cherry replied. "I never understood Sailor Moon nonsense and I probably never will."

"Maybe someday, you might." Atticus said.

"What if I never master my Silver Crystal?" Darla pouted.

"Ah, Darla, never say never," Atticus comforted. "So young and you can't lose hope or give up!"

"You think so?" Darla asked.

"I know so," Atticus smiled. "You know, I was kind of like you when I was learning how to fly without pixie dust."

"Really?" Darla asked.

"True story." Atticus nodded.

"Ooh, this should be good." Cherry smirked.

"It was on my first day of training with Goku." Atticus said.

Darla smiled as she listened to his story.

"Ah, good times..." Atticus smiled back as he thought about his time with Goku before telling her the story to help cheer her up about doubting herself about being a wielder of the Silver Crystal.

Flashback

Atticus was settling into Goku's house with Patch as he was excited to spend his time here.

"When you're ready, Atticus, meet me outside!" Goku called out.

"Okay, Goku!" Atticus called back.

"Better not keep me waiting!" Goku called back playfully.

Atticus chuckled as he then set up everything in his new room the way he liked it. "There we go!"

"You better get going." Patch smiled.

"All right, you get settled." Atticus smiled back and then ran outside to see Goku.

"Wait, wait, I thought Patch didn't go with you to the Dragon Ball Z world?" Darla's voice asked.

"He didn't go with you?" Cherry asked Atticus.

"You didn't listen to me during that story, did you?" Atticus asked Cherry.

"Maybe..." Cherry looked around shiftily.

"That was a test, and you were right, Darla; Patch didn't go with me to the Dragon Ball Z world, now here's how my first day of training really started." Atticus said before starting the story over.

Cherry groaned and rolled her eyes.

Atticus came out to see Goku and the two bowed to each other like karate students.

"Alright, we'll start with flying." Goku said.

"Great!" Atticus smiled before looking thoughtful. "Um... Uh..."

"Is there a problem?" Goku asked him.

"Well, yeah," Atticus replied. "I don't have any pixie dust."

"Pixie dust?" Goku asked. "You don't need anything like that; I can teach you how to fly without using pixie dust."

"Oh... Okay..." Atticus replied. "I hope I can do it."

"You can, you just gotta believe!" Goku smiled.

"So, what do I have to do?" Atticus asked out of anticipation.

"Just use your energy and be careful." Goku began.

"Um, okay." Atticus said as he began to jump and tried to fly.

"No, no, Atticus, flying and jumping are two different things," Goku coached. "Use your energy."

"Oh, um, okay." Atticus said before concentrating as he stood still.

Goku took a look at him as this was becoming a rather intense moment. Within moments as Atticus focused on his energy, his feet levitated from the ground.

"Yeah, that's it you're doing it!" Goku cheered.

"I'm trying to stay focused." Atticus told his mentor.

Goku nodded and smiled proudly to Atticus as he flew around with ease, almost like a ghost.

"Wahoo!" Atticus cheered before flying into the wall of the house.

"Oh, Atticus, watch out for the-" Goku cried out.

CRASH!

"House..." Goku finished with a sigh.

"GOKU!" Chichi's voice yelled out.

The flashback ends with Darla and even Cherry giggling out of amusement.

Atticus smiled sheepishly to them as he remembered that before looking to Darla. "Ya see?" he then told his little sister. "It's not about the abilities you have, it's about the confidence you have deep inside yourself."

"I guess if anyone taught us that, it'd be Princess Aurora and Jasmine." Cherry muttered.

"Thanks for the help." Darla smiled.

"Of course," Atticus smiled back. "What're big brothers for?"

"At least you're a better big brother than that kid your sister told us about who tortures toys and his sister's toys," Cherry commented. "As if toys have feelings of their own, they're not like people like you or me."

"Oh, but Cherry, you and Atticus taught me that a bug's life is hard, so maybe toys have a hard life too." Darla spoke up.

"They're toys!" Cherry replied. "What could they possibly feel?!"

"But everything has feelings." Darla said.

"THEY! ARE! TOYS!" Cherry replied. "They're not even actual people, they're just action figures and dolls, THEY ARE CHILDREN'S PLAY THINGS!"

"Hey!" A voice glared from Darla's bag.

Everyone looked all around.

"Uh, who said that?" Cherry asked.

"I did!" The voice from Darla's bag replied.

Darla looked down to her bag and opened it up, and where they all soon saw Darla's teddy bear, looking up with a glare.

"Aw, very cute," Cherry smirked. "Are you a wish from Drell?"

"I want you to take back what you said about toys not having feelings!" The teddy bear demanded.

"Ooh, I'm scared of a widdle teddy weddy~" Cherry mocked. "Why don't you run off before I stuff you up to Build-A-Bear?" She soon saw that Atticus and Darla took the stuffed bear's feelings seriously.

"You know, Cherry, you can be so inconsiderate sometimes." Atticus frowned to his best friend.

"Alright, so toys have feelings too." Cherry gave in.

"I'm sorry about her, buddy," Atticus told his little sister's teddy bear. "Cherry sometimes does or says things without thinking about how other people would feel."

"Maybe she should find out how hard it is to be a toy." The teddy bear suggested.

"Hm... My sister Jessica did tell me about that her toys had their own story when she was little, like that pony Minty who liked socks," Atticus pondered. "Not to mention her favorite doll of Rainbow Brite."

"Nice." The teddy bear said.

Atticus and Darla smiled to the teddy bear which made him smile back.

Cherry just rolled her eyes and walked off. "My life just can't get any weirder."

"You never know." Atticus said.

Cherry soon left them alone as she was now left with her own thoughts. "This is a weird experience." She muttered to herself.

"So, what's up?" The teddy bear asked.

"Oh, nothing much," Darla shrugged before sighing. "Except that Miley's secret life has been revealed to her possible new boyfriend."

"Ooh." The teddy bear winced.

"I'm afraid so," Darla sighed before hugging her teddy bear like she would do with terrible nightmares. "I'm really worried for the Stewart family."

"I'm sure everything will be fine." The teddy bear said.

"Thanks, Teddy," Darla said. "I just feel so bad and worried for Miley and Robbie Ray. This is all my fault."

"No, it's not." Atticus told her.

"Yes, it is, Atticus," Darla frowned. "I was the one who suggested Moon Power for Miley and Hannah!"

"You couldn't have known this would happen." Atticus said.

"I guess not." Darla replied.

"What's that one song Hannah sings?" Atticus asked. "Everybody makes mistakes and nobody's perfect?"

"Yeah..." Darla nodded as she knew which song he meant.

"Well, it's true," Atticus smiled before laughing a bit. "Heck, even Superman has made a mistake or few."

"What? No way, he couldn't have!" Darla replied. "He's the Man of Steel!"

"His first day of being a superhero, he accidentally broke off the back end of an airplane, trying to save it from crashing." Atticus said.

Darla cupped her mouth and giggled slightly.

"Everybody makes mistakes," Atticus soothed. "Even Superman and Trixie."

"Uh, Trixie?" Darla asked.

"Oh, sorry, I just remembered Trixie telling me that even she's made mistakes with being Great and Powerful." Atticus smiled sheepishly.

"Ohh." Darla smiled.

"You see though?" Atticus smiled back.

"Has Cherry made mistakes?" Darla asked.'

"Yes," Atticus replied with a chuckle. "But if I named them all, we would be here all day."

"Excuse me?" Cherry poked her head in with a slight glare.

"What?" Atticus smirked.

"You know what you said!" Cherry replied.

"Hey, at least you're better than Sabrina whenever we visit the Netherworld." Atticus shrugged.

"That's for sure," Cherry smirked. "Half-mortal, half-witch."

"So then, I have time to learn." Darla smiled.

"Of course," Atticus smiled back. "You're young, so you enjoy it. I'm sure your friends feel the same way. I mean, you all just found out that Amber has ice powers like Queen Elsa and that Annabelle's mother was a fairy before you guys even met her and Murray."

"Right." Darla said.

Atticus and Darla smiled to each other and soon shared a hug together.

Later on, Ashley wanted to spend some time with Cherry since she had bonded with Michael enough as they were dating and loved hanging out with their parents.

"Hey, Ashley." Cherry greeted.

"Hey, Cherry," Ashley smiled. "Ya wanna go for a walk?"

"I guess so..." Cherry shrugged as she didn't want to spend too much time with Ashley because she felt like she would be like all her brother's other girlfriends who would be gone within a week and never seen or heard from again, but something inside her told her that this was the one for her brother.

Ashley seemed like a very good friend too and a cool person to be around which was something Cherry truly admired.

"So the stories that you've told me about your adventures, are they real?" Ashley smiled at Cherry.

"Oh, sure, lots of them," Cherry replied. "I guess Michael told you about them?"

"Yeah," Ashley smiled. "All he does is talk about you."

"Talk about me?" Cherry smirked as her brother was quite self-centered most of the time. "Ya sure he didn't mean himself?"

"No, no, he really did talk about you." Ashley smiled.

"Really?" Cherry smiled back.

Ashley nodded. "Uh-huh, how smart you are, how creative you are, not to mention the adventures you've been on with friends."

"Yeah, I've had many adventures," Cherry said. "Some almost life-threatening."

"Do you have a favorite?" Ashley asked.

"Oh, I couldn't choose just one..." Cherry replied. "There's just been so many. You'd be surprised of who I've met though who are said to be fictional, but actually real."

"Would your favorite be Batman?" Ashley asked.

"Well, yeah, he's a pretty cool hero," Cherry replied before yelling out to make Atticus hear. "DIDJA HEAR THAT, NANCY BOY FUDO?!"

Ashley giggled. "Why do you call Atticus that?"

"Because he loves Nancy Drew." Cherry replied.

"I DO NOT!" Atticus's voice yelled.

"Wow, he must have good hearing." Ashley commented.

"Would you believe me if I told you he knows Superman?" Cherry replied.

"Yes, since that's another one of your stories that Michael told me about." Ashley said.

Cherry smiled as she was beginning to have a lot of fun with Ashley and which was a good sign for the future of the Butler family.

"I hope Robbie Ray's gonna be okay, Shell," Bud frowned to his wife. "I haven't seen him this down in a long time."

"I'm sure everything will turn out right." Michelle said.

"I hope so..." Bud replied. "I hate to see him upset."

"Don't worry so much, dear," Michelle soothed her husband. "You'll make Cherry worry... Where is she anyway?"

"Out with Ashley," Bud smiled. "What a lovely girl."

"They must be having a great time." Michelle smiled back.

Later on, Cherry and Ashley came back pretty late and were laughing together as they were having a lot of fun with their own bonding.

"Man, I never thought I'd be this happy when it wasn't my birthday or Halloween." Cherry smiled.

"Thanks for the fun, Cherry," Ashley smiled back. "We should do it again someday."

"Totally!" Cherry beamed.

The two of them soon yawned.

"I better get back home, you have my number..." Ashley replied.'

"Yeah, see ya later, Ashley," Cherry smiled as she hugged her. "Have a good night."

"You too!" Ashley smiled back before she went back to her own place.

Cherry was now making her way to her room.

"Cherry, I messaged you a few times, I guess you had fun?" Michelle replied.

"Yeah, Mom, Ashley's so cool!" Cherry beamed. "She's so funny, and wise, and interesting! I only glanced at my phone a few times."

"Wow." Michelle smiled.

"Well, I better get to bed," Cherry replied. "I'll see you all tomorrow."

"Wow, I've never seen Cherry so social." Bud smiled.

"Me neither." Michelle smiled back.

"Ashley must be a great gal," Atticus said to his best friend's parents. "Good night."

"Night!" The Butler couple replied.

Everyone was soon asleep. Michael was so thrilled that his sister and Ashley got along so well, and where they would continue to get along.
