Back at the Beaver's...
Beaver was painting flowers on a bush, but soon made a crooked pink line as a noise had thrown off her concentration.
"Nice armor." Mo giggled as Bear was marching, wearing trashcan lids.
"Thanks." Bear smiled.
"Maybe you should get plastic garbage lids, Bear?" Beaver suggested in slight annoyance before pounding on the front with her fist. "They're not as noisy."
"Sounds like a lunch gong if ever I hear one." Mr. Turtle said as he set down a picnic basket while coming with his mother and wife.
"It sure is." Mo replied.
"We brought lunch for everybody." Mrs. Turtle smiled.
"Thanks, Mrs. Turtle!" Bear smiled back as he took a sandwich and ate it instantly.
"Where's Franklin, Junior, and Rosie?" Mr. Turtle asked.
"They're not with you?!" Mo panicked once she heard her little brother was missing. She soon remembered where Franklin, Junior, and Rosie were going.
"Where could they be?" Mrs. Turtle wondered.
"Last night he asked me where he could find the oldest cherry tree." Mr. Turtle said.
"He asked me where he could find a squire." Granny added.
"And he asked me what the Green Knight took on his journey." Mrs. Turtle included.
"Snail's not here either," Bear said as he ate his sandwich. "Maybe he's with them."
"Um, I think I know where they might be." Mo spoke up.
The others looked curiously to her.
"Franklin's gonna try to bring Spring by going on his own quest," Mo said. "Junior and Rosie went with him, and, well, Snail of course too."
"How is Franklin gonna bring Spring?" Bear asked.
"He believes that he could be the next Green Knight," Mo said. "He doesn't want you all to worry about Spring never coming, even if my nature powers can't make it come any faster."
"You have nature powers?" Mrs. Turtle asked.
"Yes, I know, but it's true, it's a long story about me." Mo replied.
"We better go find them." Mr. Turtle said as he brought out a map.
"If Junior is hurt, I will never forgive myself..." Mo looked worried and angry all at the same time.
"Now, let me see..." Mr. Turtle laid down the map on the table. "They probably took this road, the old cherry tree is just a couple of miles beyond this point."
"We should split up, in case they're on their way back." Mrs. Turtle suggested.
"We should all help find them." Mo said.
"That's a good idea." Mr. Beaver agreed.
Mo soon heard a screech and looked up. "Guys, I found them!" she then beamed once she saw her little brother and the others coming by with Eagle.
"Look out below!" Junior called out with a smile.
"We're coming in for a landing!" Rosie added.
"It's Franklin, Snail, Junior, and Rosie!" Bear jumped on the table.
"Flying!" Badger added with glee.
Eagle flew all around and soon dropped off the four of them so they could be reunited with the others.
"That was so exciting!" Rosie smiled.
"Thanks for the ride, Mrs. Eagle." Junior smiled to the graceful bird.
"Franklin, we were so worried!" Mrs. Turtle hugged her son instantly. "Are you hurt?"
"Nope, I'm okay, Mom." Franklin smiled.
"JJ, oh, thank goodness!" Mo hugged her little brother nice and tight.
"Hey, Momo." Junior smiled to his big sister.
"Oh, JJ, you're safe..." Mo smiled back to her little brother.
"Who's this?" Beaver looked astounded to meet Eagle.
Eagle soon faced her and Beaver screamed as she was worried instantly.
"This is Eagle, she's very friendly." Rosie said.
Eagle then tickled Beaver with her beak. "Hello." she then greeted the villagers of Woodland with a smile and they greeted her back.
"Thank you for bringing Franklin and the others back to Woodland," Mr. Turtle said. "We were starting to get very worried."
"I'm glad to have helped," Eagle smiled. "Now I must fly, I have my own eaglets to attend to." she then spread out her wings to fly back to her babies.
"Bye, Eagle!" Rosie smiled.
"Take care!" Junior added.
Eagle flew away as everyone bid her adieu.
"Don't be a stranger!" Beaver even added.
"I feel more powerful for some reason..." Mo said as Franklin opened up his cape to take out the cherry blossoms to show everyone. "The cherry blossoms."
"Oh, they're beautiful!" Granny smiled to her grandson.
Junior looked curiously to his big sister, he picked up the cherry blossoms in his arms and then gave them to her to see what would happen, he saved one though to give to Rosie and where the cherry blossom soon glowed in Mo's hands. Rosie put the blossom given to her in her hair with a smile. Junior smiled back to her as he thought the flower was beautiful in her hair.
"That blossom is glowing in her hand." Snail said about Mo as she took the blossoms.
"Hmm... I wonder..." Mo said as she soon placed the blossom on the snowy ground and where soon Spring came.
The snow seemed to melt and glowed like her hands. Mo smiled and she touched the snowy surfaces and the snow began to melt and some aliens came out of hibernation and plants were blooming as the season was changing.
"What are those?" Beaver asked as she saw the aliens.
"What are what?" Mo turned around to see where Beaver was looking.
The kids soon got close to the adults. Mo came over to the aliens that Beaver saw. The aliens soon came over to Mo. Mo then smiled to the aliens while the others looked curious and alarmed. Junior came over since Mo wasn't hurt and even Rosie came along too.
"Can someone please tell me what's going on here?" Beaver complained.
"Please forgive us, but we couldn't help but admire the flowers." One of the aliens said.
"These ones are cherry blossoms, and those are crocus that are growing." Mo told the aliens.
"They are beautiful." The aliens smiled as they smelled the flowers.
"You can keep some of them if you'd like, the planet has plenty." Mo smiled back.
The aliens looked excited and happy about that and took the flowers as souvenirs.
"You seem to know these aliens, Momo." Junior said to his sister.
"Yeah, how do you know them?" Rosie asked.
"I never told you guys that story?" Mo replied as she hugged some of the aliens. "Hmm... Well, when we get back home, I should."
Beaver still couldn't believe that Mo was able to bring Spring to the village even after Franklin's quest with Snail, Junior, and Rosie.
Soon, they did their play of the Green Knight. The snow soon all melted away and it was gently raining as it was becoming April showers which would soon turn into May flowers and everyone was very happy to enjoy Spring once again.
Everyone jumped in the puddles, flew kites, rode bikes, and at the Turtle residence, they were getting all set for the baby who would be coming very soon now. Rosie kept the flower in her hair and it seemed to never die or wilt throughout the time and where it was soon time for the play. It was playing out like in the story and it seemed even more fun as Junior and Rosie even participated. Mo felt very proud of her little brother.
"At last, Spring is here!" Franklin jeered as he drew his sword.
Beaver and Rosie came on the stage in tutus and ballerina slippers with flower crowns as they frolicked with the blossoms.
'I feel so pretty.' Rosie thought to herself.
Junior smiled to Rosie's outfit, he was only five, but he felt like he was in love.
After the play, they were all soon having cake. Snail was a bit messy though due to him having to sit in his plate to eat his slice. The parents smiled and complimented their children on their performance in the play.
"Excellent," Mr. Owl smiled to Franklin, Junior, and Rosie as they stood with Mr. Turtle, Mrs. Turtle, Granny, and Mo. "I truly believed you were the Green Knight, Franklin."
"He really put his heart into it." Mo said.
"Didn't you?" Granny smiled to her grandson.
"I sure did!" Franklin smiled back.
"Oh, my!" Mrs. Turtle gasped. "It's time!"
"It's time?" Mr. Turtle's eyes widened.
"Oh, my gosh, it's time!" Granny smiled.
"O.M.G, it's time!" Mo smiled.
"It's time? Time for what?" Franklin, Junior, and Rosie asked out of confusion.
"The baby, Franklin!" Mr. Turtle told his son before calling out to the adult female bear as she had cake with her husband and son. "D-Dr. Bear, it's time!"
They soon started to make their way out of the building.
"Mom...?" Franklin called out.
Mrs. Turtle smiled to her son as she was being taken out of the area. "We'll see you soon, Franklin." she then said before leaving with Dr. Bear and her husband.
"Don't you worry," Granny soothed her grandson. "Your mom and dad will soon be home. You're going to be a big brother!"
Mo decided that she wanted to see this up close as Granny decided to take Franklin, Junior, and Rosie back home. This seemed to take hours as it soon became night.
