Chapter 4
{Breakfast at Greedy's}
Brainy trudged into Greedy's Café and sat down with a huff. Papa Smurf's departure and that new green smurf's presence was really getting to him. He would have to keep an eye on the green smurf called Yoshi. What the smurf is he doing hanging out with Clumsy anyway? Why would anyone want to? Well sometimes Clumsy was helpful, like showing everyone who the smart one is and he's always a good smurf to blame something on to. Awh, come on Brainy forget about Clumsy, you have to be on guard and watch out for the green smurf! His intelligent mind yelled at him.
"Good Morning Brainy! Where were you this morning? Greedy almost ate all of the smurf berry muffins."
He turned his head to the sweet voice. It was Smurfette. Awh Smurfette, what a delicate flower who deserves someone has great as me. Why doesn't she know that? He thought to himself.
"Uh, I had to talk to Papa Smurf for a very important issue that I, Brainy Smurf, has to deal with properly." He said while sitting up straight with an intellectual pose.
The smurfs sitting at Brainy's table. Smurfette, Handy, Hefty, Lazy, Jokey, Grouchy, and Vanity were all staring at him with annoyed expressions. Well, except Lazy, Vanity and Grouchy. Lazy was almost falling asleep in his smurf berry cereal, Vanity was staring at himself in his mirror not really paying attention and Grouchy. He always had an annoyed expression, especially when it came to Brainy.
"Sooo? What issue is that?" Handy spoke for the others.
He sighed…Yes! I should tell them! Then they will all be warned and they will finally come to me for help. He thought to himself mischievously.
"It's that forest green smurf!" Brainy exclaimed.
"Yoshi...i thought he was grass green." Vanity spoke up for the first time. Although, No one had thought he had been paying attention.
"Yea, whatever….I think he's up to something or might be hiding something!" Brainy looked at them with serious wide eyes.
Silence.
More silence.
Epic silence and staring.
Everyone cracks up after a few minutes.
Brainy looks at them, confused. "What? A random green smurf shows up two days ago, claiming he was smurfed here by some witch and you all trust him?"
"I think he's nice." Said Smurfette.
"He can play smurf ball really well too." Said Hefty.
"He knows how to build and repair things too." Said Handy.
"Oh you have got to be smurfing me! I know he is up to something and I'm going to find out what that thing is." Brainy said seriously as his eye twitched a tad.
"Why do you not like him anyway?" Heft asked. He was starting to get annoyed by Brainy.
"…Because…I…I just don't want you all to expect me to like someone only after two days, unlike Clumsy!" Brainy snapped. He really didn't know why he didn't like Yoshi. The green smurf could be something to study or maybe if he stayed long enough, he could help Brainy to become a leader, like Clumsy does. But no. He just didn't like the green smurf, he didn't know what it was though.
"Oh right, Where is Clumsy?" Smurfette asked. Her sof voice was laced with a little concern.
"Well when I was smurfing here to eat breakfast, I saw him and Yoshi walking towads the forest with a smurf ball…so im guessing they are playing smurf ball in the forest." Lazy said tiredly. He always got up early when papa smurf is leaving…No one knows why.
"I hate playing." Grouchy's grouchy voice cut in.
Handy rolled his blue eyes. "But the only thing off was that Clumsy looked all smurfed."
"Clumsy? Smurfed? Nah…Clumsy is one of the happiest smurfs in the village." Hefty retorted back.
"I know but its true. Yoshi was trying to cheer him up by whispering something to him. I couldn't catch what it was but it seemed to be working." Handy said with a confused look.
"Do you know why Clumsy was sad, Brainy?" Asked Smurfette who piped in quickly while assuming Brainy had something to do with it. Most times she was right.
"I…Who knows! Why do you always ask me what's wrong with Clumsy! I'm not his keeper." Snarled Brainy.
"Well best friends are supposed know what's going on with each other!" Smurfette snapped back.
"Well Clumsy has a new friend! He should know what's wrong with wrong with him!" Brainy snapped back angrily while getting up. He stormed out the door without another word.
He wasn't going to find Clumsy. Clumsy needs to be an adult smurf and deal with his own problems…He should also stay away from that green smurf…What was he even hanging out with him anyway? What were they…best friends…just because they ran into each other in the forest?...No, clumsy is my best friend…Oh who needs clumsy, all he does is get in the way. Brainy thought to himself bitterly as he walked towards his house and slammed the door.
….
(With Clumsy and Yoshi)
"Hit it Clumsy!" Yoshi yelled hitting the ball to Clumsy.
Clumsy jumped up dramatically hitting the ball. Yoshi laughed, but his laughter was cut off as the ball was heading straight for him.
"Ahh!" Yoshi ducked right in time.
The ball flew over him and hit a rock, then jumped on the bank and into the bushes.
Yoshi turned too looked at Clumsy with wide green eyes.
"Gosh, I'm sorry Yoshi." Said Clumsy. If it was Brainy, He would be yelling at Clumsy right now.
Yoshi grinned. "That's okay Clumsy, were just having fun!" He laughs.
Clumsy smiles and nods.
"Ok I'll go get the ball." Yoshi says climbing up the bank and running into the brush.
…
Yoshi looked through the bushes, past some weeds. He couldn't find it. He knew it came this way. He sighed and kept looking.
…
10 minutes later.
Clumsy was wondering what was taking Yoshi so long. He was even a little worried. He eased his way out of the water and on the bank.
He walked through the bushes Yoshi went into.
"Yoshi?"
"Clumsy?"
"Waohhh!" Clumsy had tripped over a…
"Clumsy look out!" Yoshi yelled as a bucket was flying down on top of him.
