Chapter 4
….

"Papa smurf! Papa smurf!" The cry of the spectacled smurf echoed through the village.

Caw! Caw!

"I know Feathers; its way too early for Brainy to be up, but we will be flying soon." Papa smurf said as he was placing the last of his potions and clothes on Feathers's back.

"Papa Smurf, Papa Smurf!" Brainy ran up to him with a scowl on his blue face.

"What is it, Brainy?" Papa smurf asked as he turned around to face him.

"Papa Smurf, do u really think it's safe to let the green smurf stay here, what if he's evil or is a dragon in disguise."

Papa smurf rolled his eyes and chuckled. "Brainy, he is not evil, one of the potions I tried on him could determine if the person was evil or not. Yoshi isn't evil, nor is he a dragon.

"But Papa smurf…we don't know anything about him."

"Brainy, Yoshi seems very kind and thankful that he's not lost in the forest anymore, Clumsy seems to really like him as well. The other smurfs seem to have taken great interest in him too. Relax, I will be back with a remedy that will send him back home safely."

Brainy sighed as he looked down. "Okay Papa Smurf, come back soon and you can read my new book: "Brainy's Book of Brilliant Ideas".

"…I'll be looking forward to it Brainy." Papa smurf grimaced as he secretly hoped that his trip would take longer than expected. Brainy opened his mouth to say something else, but was cut off by a smurf ball flying toward him at full speed.

"Brainy, watch out!" A voice was heard before the ball slammed into his stomach knocking him to the ground.

The ball had knocked the breath out of him. After coughing and groaning, he sat up to see Clumsy and the green smurf looking at him with worried eyes...But to Brainy, Yoshi looked as if he was stifling laughter.

"Uh, Brainy, you okay?" Clumsy's southern accent echoed from above him.

"Sorry Brainy, I don't have great aim, I was trying to teach Clumsy a new game but I'm not very good with this kind of ball." Yoshi said as he tilted his head.

Brainy mentally growled while picking himself up and looked Clumsy in the eyes.

"Just keep him away from me and don't touch a smurfball, you are already bad enough." Brainy snapped coldly towards the clumsy smurf.

Clumsy's face fell downward. He knew he wasn't good at sports, and he was usually the one that made his team lose. But he tried his best and that was what mattered. Right?

"Gee, Sorry Brainy…come on, Yoshi you can show me later."

Yoshi looked at Clumsy, then at Brainy, then back to Clumsy and nodded firmly.

Brainy glared at the two as they headed off into direction of the forest.

Brainy dusted himself off and looked at Papa smurf who had watched the whole scene quietly.

Papa smurf smiled. He would have stepped in but he needed Brainy to learn to fix his own problems.

"Well Brainy…what an eventful morning. I must go now" He hoped on feathers.

"But Papa Smurf, you saw that! He did that on purpose!" exclaimed Brainy.

"Im sure he didn't mean to, go have some breakfast before Greedy gets to it." Papa smurf chuckled as he and Feathers flew away.

Brainy groaned. Yoshi was bad news and Clumsy is getting clumsier and dumber by every minute the green smurf was around. He trudged off to eat breakfast, hopefully there was still a piece of smurf berry pie left…but with his luck there probably wasn't.

….

(With Clumsy and Yoshi in the forest)

Yoshi watched as the troubled Clumsy sat on the waters edge, knees to his chest, poking a leaf floating on the water's edge. The carefree smurf's face was drawn and he looked in deep thought.

Yoshi didn't know what he did to that smurf with the glasses, somehow he didn't like Yoshi for some reason. But he wasn't worried about that. Clumsy told him how great Brainy was, Yoshi didn't see it. The ways he talked to Clumsy….

He knew he had to cheer Clumsy up somehow, Clumsy just didn't seem like a sad smurf.

"Clumsy, I think it's cool how you bounce the ball with your head. That takes some real talent!" Yoshi said with a smile.

Clumsy just shrugged. He didn't give him the reaction that Yoshi was looking for. Yoshi sighed, then looked at the ball, then the water…it was very shallow, then clumsy.

"Have you ever played water smurf ball?" he asked putting a game together.

"No, but I'm probably not too good at that either." Clumsy said glumly.

"You don't have to be good at Water Smurfball to play. All you have to do is keep the ball off the water." Yoshi said standing up.

"Ok, I guess I'll try it." Clumsy said sighing.

"That's the spirit!." Yoshi smirks, pushing Clumsy in the water.

Clumsy yelped In surprise.

Yoshi grabbed the ball and jumped in after him. The water was very shallow it only came up to their chests, so they could stand.

"Ok, there are only two rules. Rule One, don't let the ball touch the water and count how many times we hit it. If the ball touches the water than we gotta start all over. Rule Two, simple. Have fun!" Yoshi says grinning.

"Now that sounds smurfy, let's start" Clumsy said with an actual smile.

….

"Im telling you Gargy, smurfs aren't gonna be out this early." Scruple says with a huff.

"Oh stop your whining you stupid loud mouth monkey! Smurfs are always around." Gargemel snapped back.

"Stop calling me that, I look nothing like a monkey, you old toad!" Scrupple growled.

Gargemel was about to turn around with a snap back of his own, but was suddenly distracted by the sound of water splashing.

"Shhh Shush up…do you hear that?"

They parted the nearby bushes and saw two smurfs dancing around in a small pool of water. However, one smurf was different than what he had ever seen.

"A green smurf?...Smurfs are blue…He must be more magical than the blue, and you know how much I like magical smurfs." Gargemel smirked.

Scrupple sighed while taking a seat on the ground to enjoy the show featuring Gargemel embarrassing himself. He hated his life sometimes, but it sure was entertaining.
