(Part 5 - Finale)
Usbegaugh liked his name: an old English word for 'Whisky'.
He never ever touched the stuff. But he did like a sip of ale.
Once in a blue moon. Whenever The Master offered it. Yes.
Now, let's get back to the 'Dream' Usbegaugh had one night:
Laying on his special rug, he thought he heard a sound outside.
Then a shadowy figure... Maybe more... Went fast by the window.
As he often went to sleep on a soft fake-fur rug near a big window,
Usbegaugh soon wondered if he saw something while in a light sleep?
He described the full dream he had to his housemate, Miss Absinthe.
When he was finished, she scratched her furry chin, as was her habit.
"Yes, my Friend... That is a fascinating tale for sure. Maybe you did
see those Fairies, like Basil the House Mouse said he did witness. Yes!"
Soon, something would bring the Dream of Fairies to come Full Circle.

The next day, The Master had a visit from a recent new arrival.
"Hello Sir... I am your new neighbor, Sally Kingsfield. From America."
"Oh, yes. I saw the moving van trucks last month, I do recall." replied The Master.
"Please, come on in and have a cup of tea. I am at your service!" he then added.
After enjoying a nice 'Cuppa' as they say in Jolly Olde England, Sally asked a favor.
"My daughters, twins Amanda and Emma were naughty, last week. They trespassed
into your yard, in their Halloween costumes. Emma told me about it this morning.
She said she lost a pair of Fairy Wings. Maybe you found them outside recently?"
The Master then gave a chuckle. "Oh, yes. My cat and dog brought them to me
in fact. I wondered where they had come from." He then retrieved the 'wings'.
"As a boy I used to get into a bit of mischief myself... No harm done." he stated.
After an invite to her home for dinner, to The Master and his wife, Sally departed.
"Well... That solves the Big Mystery... Of the Fairies at Night. It surely does!"
This was not spoken by The Master, but meowed by Absinthe to Usbegaugh.
Usbegaugh barked back: "Surely it does. And I for one am surely relieved!"
"Maybe you are a bit Psychic, Friend. Seeing things in Dreams that are Real?"
This from Absinthe, coming at the end of this latest 'mystery solved'. Aye.

That brings this story to its conclusion. But, in the months that did follow:
"Absinthe... I had another weird dream the other night. Me thinks I saw
a bright light land out in the Big Yard out back. What Humans call a UFO!"
"My... That does sound interesting..." Absinthe replied, scratching her chin.
Well, Folks, this new mystery is a Story for Another Day, I dare say. Quite!
