Comedia found herself placed in the Council Chambers again, and the Jedi questioned her on her pranking.

"We thought you stopped with the pranking everyone," said Master Koth.

"I did." Comedia said. "You gotta believe me, I didn't do any of this!"

"Then why was everything found in your closet?" Mace asked.

"I don't know! I swear."

"Comedia," said Ki-Adi. "You know I love you. More than anything else. But you wouldn't give an alibi for Thursday. And the pranks, the graffiti, and stolen shoes and lightsabers in your closet say otherwise."

"Why would I hide evidence in such an easy to find place? That doesn't make sense. And since when have I ever left graffiti saying 'Comedia was here'? That's not my trademark. I don't even have mine yet."

"They do have a point though, Comedia." Anakin said. "You wouldn't let Lamenta scan you, and you wouldn't say anything about Thursday. How are we supposed to believe you?"

Comedia had tears in her eyes at that moment, which concerned everyone. She started to cry and said,

"I'm afraid what'll happen if I do tell you."

"Go on, Comedia. Tell them." Qui-Gon said. "Or do I need to?"

"Dad?" Anakin suddenly looked confused.

Comedia was silent for a bit, and then Qui-Gon spoke.

"I'd hoped I would never have to admit this, but... Comedia was with me on Thursday. We went to visit my old master in prison."

Everyone gasped.

DUN, DUN, DUUUUUN!

Everyone also jumped.

"Carmine!" Anakin exclaimed angrily.

"Sorry." Carmine laughed a bit, having played the dramatic music on his keytar.

"But why?" Ki-Adi said. "Why would you do something so dangerous?"

"He's in prison." Comedia said. "And Qui-Gon was with me. I had to go for answers."

"And all those times you were away on 'important business,' Father?" Anakin said, putting air quotes on 'important business'.

"I went to see him." Qui-Gon nodded. "I've been doing so for a long time. Allow me to explain."

Sometime last year...

It had been sometime after Anakin and his team rescued Rosella from Dooku's clutches. Qui-Gon still struggled to process knowing his old master turned to the Dark Side. Everyone believed Dooku was beyond redemption, but a part of Qui-Gon realized it was when the one he loved like a son was killed that he fell.

But, now that Qui-Gon was revived, he thought... if that ultimate spell of love could reverse a Jedi's death, maybe a little love and compassion could reverse what happened to Dooku. Qui-Gon knew it wouldn't undo all the damage Dooku had done, nor would it get him out of jail, but at the very least... he hoped that he could help his former master live out what remained of his life peacefully.

So, one day, Dooku was shocked when a guard came into his cell to tell him he had a visitor. Dooku thought it would be part of the Republic Army to interrogate him, but it wasn't. He nearly had a heart attack when a hooded figure who'd been standing there removed his hood revealing the figure underneath to be none other than Qui-Gon Jinn.

"How is this possible?" Dooku had said. "Darth Maul killed you thirteen years ago!"

Normally, it wasn't allowed, but Qui-Gon hugged his former master, and that appeared to have awoken a part of Dooku that had been asleep for a long time.

Qui-Gon then told Dooku everything. As you can imagine, Dooku couldn't believe it when his former Padawan told him that the very princess he'd attempted to capture before was actually his granddaughter, and the Chosen One was his son. Dooku had heard rumors that this was so, and that Qui-Gon Jinn had been revived and crowned king of a lost kingdom, but he thought that's all they were. How he never knew this when Qui-Gon was younger, he would probably never know. But Qui-Gon told him he never told anyone for the sake of his children's safety.

"Had I known I wouldn't survive then, I might've asked that you would take them in. But seeing how you turned, it makes me question so much."

For what seemed like the first time in his life, Dooku looked so guilty. He knew he didn't deserve to see his Padawan again, although he'd wished he could just one more time when he learned of his demise. Yet somehow, a little girl managed to perform an amazing miracle. Qui-Gon himself still couldn't believe it. But, if there was one thing about his granddaughter he knew made her special more than anything else, it was her faith. That little girl had a heart that was a beacon of hope and love even in the darkest moments, and she didn't give up easily.

Dooku, although he was sure no one would ever forgive him, sincerely wished he could thank that child for what she did. When Qui-Gon shared with him how wonderful life with his children and grandchildren was now, it brought Dooku at peace knowing at least his former student was happy, and the Jedi were finally working to make changes and open their eyes as well as their hearts.

It wasn't the first time Qui-Gon visited him either. He came back to visit his former teacher every chance he got to catch up and sing praises about is family.

"And why bring Comedia with you?" Zipp asked.

"Remember when I came to you and Master Koth about that dream I had?" Comedia said.

"Yes, what of it?" Eeth asked.

"Well, Dooku was in my dream."

That had everyone gasping again.

"He knew I was Force sensitive years ago, but I found out recently I'm not the only one. It turned out I have a cousin on my mom's side, and she was Force sensitive too, and she saved me from Dooku years ago. I guess she thought I was in danger, but I don't know what happened to her after that. So, I asked Qui-Gon if he would come with me to see him. I had to have a grownup with me, and Qui-Gon seemed like the best choice. And, as you can probably imagine, we didn't get much. But, he recognized her from a picture Emeraldi gave me. But I was the only Jedi youngling he could find and knew what I looked like. The only reason I didn't tell anyone else was because of how everyone reacted just now."

Lamenta approached Comedia, and this time, the latter let her scan her.

"She's telling the truth." Lamenta said.

"But that doesn't explain all the pranks we faced today." Anakin said.

"Well, I couldn't have pulled all those." Comedia said. "I'm probably gonna be in trouble anyway, so I confesss... I snuck out last night."

"What?! Why did you do that?" Ki-Adi asked.

Last night... (Comedia's P.O.V)

I couldn't sleep last night because of all that happened over the last week. With all the so-called evidence, it looked like I was gonna be found guilty, so I decided I needed to go look at this evidence myself, or better yet, see if I could catch the real culprit in the act. So, I put on a dark cloak, fed my fish, and then I snuck out of my room while Dad was asleep.

But when I got out of the apartment, I bumped into one of the Temple guards. I begged them not to tell anyone. Of course, they didn't say anything back.

I got to an exit and flew out, keeping my face covered, and then I got to the school.

I checked everywhere a prank had been pulled, but didn't see anything. So, I decided to sit down and meditate for a bit. I asked the Force to show me something. Anything that could prove my innocence. But then, I got a strange dream in my head, like a daydream. I could see Master Yoda's quarters, and someone sneaking around there. So, I rushed right back to the Temple, but when I got there, I only saw one of the guards again, and I accidentally startled them.

"Is everything okay here?" I asked the guard.

The guard just nodded and walked away then. I decided to double check though. So, I quietly snuck into Master Yoda's apartment. Magenta and Yoda were both asleep. Everything seemed normal.

I didn't wanna wake them up, and I didn't wanna let whatever bad thing my dream was trying to tell me to come back either. Since I was already tired, I decided to curl up and rest on the rug. That rug is surprisingly comfy. And then Magenta woke me up in the morning.

Present day... (No P.O.V.)

"Are you sure you weren't sleep-joking, or something?" Ahsoka asked. "Remember when a certain someone was found sleepwalking?"

Ahsoka not so discreetly motioned to Anakin.

"That was one time!" Anakin whined.

"If I were asleep, wouldn't someone have heard the sounds of a horse snoring in different places?"

"We've all got horses," said Mace. "It might be hard to tell the difference."

Then, Strawberry remembered something.

"Comedia definitely couldn't have been sleepwalking or anything. I know because I stepped out of our apartment sometime last night too."

Last night...(Strawberry Sundae's P.O.V.)

I had gotten out of bed for a late night snack, and I was going to go back to bed, when I realized my bag was missing. I thought back and realized I'd left it at the bakery. Normally, I would've just let it go, but my cake design book was in it, and with the wedding coming up so soon, I needed to ensure the cake's design was perfect.

So, I left the apartment and started to exit, when I noticed something from the corner of my eye. It was dark, but I could tell it was a pony, a pegasus at least, given that they flew out of the Temple. They looked like they were trying not to be seen, now that I think back. I didn't much of it then, so I went to the bakery and got my bag, and some tubes of icing I'd meant to bring home earlier that day too. I was planning on making some cupcakes just for the family.

But when I got into the kitchen this morning, all the icing tubes were gone, and replaced with toothpaste.

Present day... (No P.O.V.)

"And with how many people got green teeth this morning, I'm going to guess whoever really pranked us switched the toothpaste with my icing." Strawberry said. "Whoever they are, they owe me."

Gabby listened and wrote all these details in her notebook.

"Wait a minute." Gabby said. "Let's think this through. Not here, though."

Gabby got everyone to come to her house so they could put the clues together. Gabby also asked Comedia if she could bring her fish over.

"Why did I have to bring Nemo and Sheila again?" Comedia asked.

"They may provide an important clue." Gabby said. "But first, we gotta put these clues together."

Gabby got out a board again and began writing down new clues they had so far.

Here are the clues they have so far:

1. the pranking first happened at the school, but now more of them happened at the Jedi Temple. Thus, the culprit had to be someone with access to both of those places.

2. the culprit used theater equipment for most of the pranks, so it had to be someone with access to the school's theater. Very likely, it was someone in the cast or crew for the school play

3. All the pranks started on one Friday, and only happened again on weekdays, when school was in session. So, whoever did it obviously wanted everyone to suspect Comedia.

"Except, looking at all these suspects, none of them seems to have any kind of motive for doing this." Gabby said. "And we all know Teatra would never want to ruin her own production. Did any of the crew audition for the play?"

"Some of them, but not for the Mad Hatter."

"Do any of these people have access to the school after hours?"

"Wait a minute!" Anakin said. "I just remembered something."

Anakin's conversation with Rachel Kharen...

"I have keys to pretty much every room. I thought I lost them last week, and I'm glad I didn't.

"Rachel has keys to every room in the school." Anakin said. "She would have access to the theater and any door that would let her in."

"It couldn't be her." Boba said. "We're in biology class together. And she freaks out at the sight of worms. There's no way she could've set up a prank with real worms."

"Plus, what motive would she have against me?" Comedia said. "I never competed against her."

"We also know whoever it was, they managed to infiltrate the Jedi Temple." Gabby said, circling a picture of the Temple. "And the only people who have access to the Temple are Jedi, our families, and the people who work there."

"Could someone I pranked before be out for revenge?" Comedia said awkwardly.

"That could be a lot of people." Gabby said. "But that's why I had you bring your pet fish. I believe they can be witnesses. You and Uncle Ki-Adi can't talk to fish... but Boba can."

Gabby hadn't yet mastered talking to fish since mer-magic was only part of her powers, but Boba was a merman. So, he naturally developed aquatic whispering abilities. It seemed crazy, but Boba decided to give it a go.

"Sheila, Nemo?" Boba said to the little tank. "Did either of you see anything weird last night?"

To everyone else, the fish only glugged and swam around, but to Boba, he could hear them speak very clearly, and he translated.

"They said Comedia did feed them last night, and then they saw someone else come into her room, someone on two legs." Boba said. "But they couldn't tell who it was. They were wearing a mask and robes."

Gabby brought up a picture of a Temple Guard and asked Boba to ask the fish if they looked something like that.

Boba asked the fish.

"They said yes." Boba said.

"Why would a Temple Guard do this?" Comedia asked.

"I don't think it was a Temple Guard." Gabby said. "We need to question Master Drallig."

Cin Drallig was in charge of the Coruscant Temple's guard. He would know if anything strange were going on with the guards.

So, Gabby went to Master Drallig. She asked him if he noticed any of the guards behaving strangely.

But he said, "To my knowledge, all the guards were accounted for all week, just like any week of the year. And they are very alert. They don't tend to bump into people, nor do they tend to roam on their own all willy nilly."

"What do you mean?"

"Based on where you said the guard was seen and the time of day... no guards would have patrolled around Master Mundi's apartment then, much less gone into his daughter's bedroom."

That could only mean one thing... someone was disguising themselves as a guard and invading the Temple!

"Don't guards have special clearance cards or something?" Gabby said.

"Unfortunately no. Seeing as the guards never leave the Temple. But if someone is pretending to be a guard to get in here as you claim, we should get those for the guards now." said Master Dallig.

"We need a sniffer on this case."

Unfortunately, the horses didn't have a keen enough sense of smell to detect anything. And Vivian and her family were on vacation this weekend, and Dracona had a cold, so asking those two for help was out. Hunter wasn't sure he could sniff it out either.

"I think I can provide some assistance." Garrett said.

"Since when do you have a keener sense of smell than a horse?" Gabby asked.

"That's a long story, which we don't have time for." Garrett said. "Take me to where Comedia bumped into the guard."

So, Comedia showed Gabby and Garrett to the exact spot where she'd bumped into the guard.

Garrett got down on all fours and started to sniff around the area where Comedia said she bumped into the guard.

"Okay, seriously, Professor. How do you have a keen sense of smell? What exactly are you hiding?"

"I'll tell you that later. But for a short answer now... let's just say the Secret of the Aloha Alpha book, it's a based on a true story." he answered.

Garrett continued to sniff around, and he picked up some odd scents.

"It smells like...fabrics...leather...cake frosting...and...perfume? No! Moisturizer. Amino brand, eucalyptus and cucumber."

"Ooh... he's good." Comedia said.

"Do you use lotion like that, Comedia?" Gabby asked.

"I'm a horse," said Comedia. "Obviously, I bathe using shampoo, and it's not eucalyptus. And my dad does use hand lotion, but his smells like lavender, and so does my shampoo."

"So that's why Uncle Ki-Adi always smells so nice."

Gabby thought about it. She'd never smelled anyone who smelled like cucumber and eucalyptus in the temple. Cucumber melon, sure. Eucalyptus alone, maybe. But never together. And Amino brand wasn't the most popular brand of body care she knew.

"This can only mean one thing." Garrett said. "The culprit had to be wearing that very lotion when they came here."

Comedia thought back to when the cast and crew gathered together. There were a lot of people there, and a lot of different smells too. Teatra advised everyone to go easy on the scented lotions and perfumes so it wouldn't distract anyone, namely folks with allergies. And then, she remembered her friends sending her pictures of their costumes, which were very well made too. Suddenly, it hit her!

"I know who it is!" Comedia said.

An emergency assembly was called at school. On the stage, there were some chairs on which sat Lumo, Brittney, Vince, Myra, Rachel, Boba, Omega, and Geneva.

"What could this assembly be about?" Geneva wondered out loud.

"Quiet down, everyone." Principal Brenden said into the microphone. "I am sure you are all wondering why I have called this assembly. Well, today, we have some very special guest speakers today. May I introduce, his royal majesty, King Qui-Gon Jinn of Solaris."

Students clapped as Qui-Gon stepped up to speak.

"Thank you, Principal Brenden. Greetings, students and faculty of Walker Prep. It is an honor to be here. Show of hands, who here enjoys a mystery?"

Lots of students raised their hands.

"I see a lot of you do. Well, what if I told you we had a real mystery and we are about to solve one now?"

That intrigued a lot of students.

"May I introduce the one to present our mystery. My granddaughter, Princess Gabriella."

Gabby came up all donned up in her pink Sherlock Holmes outfit. Everyone thought she looked so cute when she stepped up to the podium. A stepladder was placed so she could stand all the way up.

"Thank you, Grandpa." Gabby said. "Now that we're all here, I'm pleased to say that we are in the midst of solving the mystery of the Serial School Prankster."

A big screen was turned on, on which pictures of the crime scenes were presented, and Comedia was invited on stage.

"She shouldn't even be on school grounds!" Geneva said. "She was expelled."

"Which are about to overturn, if you would let me continue." Gabby said.

"Geneva, let the princess speak." the principal said. "Continue, Princess."

"Thank you, Mr. Principal." Gabby said. "Now, as you all know, my friend Comedia, a silly-corn and fellow princess, was accused of setting up all these pranks. Except... she is innocent. Let us take a look at the evidence."

Gabby then showed various pictures of the pie lockers, and some geometry problems.

"First of all, we concluded that the pies were intended to hit victims in the face, but nearly every single one missed its target."

Gabby then showed some videos of some test pranks they had Comedia perform where she hit Master Tinn with a pie by hitting it against the wall, dumped a bucket of cold water on Boba and made him turn into a merman when he had his back turned, and one final test with three moving targets, and she hit every single one with a pie, a water balloon, or a pillow filled with glitter sparkles.

"As we can see, when Comedia pulls a prank, she never misses." Gabby said. "Another clue, was when we compared the pranks pulled to the pranks Comedia keeps in her supplies. None of which contained worms, giant springs, or a rope long enough to launch anyone to a roof."

Gabby then had a spotlight hit each of the original suspects.

"We interviewed all these suspects too because each had a possible motive to frame Comedia. But, Vince was always at football practice, Brittney was at home grounded, and Lumo...he was doing something nice for Comedia in the form of getting her a pie."

"A delicious one too." Comedia licked her mouth. "Thanks, Lumo."

"With all of them eliminated as suspects, we decided to do a little more digging."

Gabby continued on with the presentation.

"We deduced that the pranks had to be set up at night, but the school's cameras were blocked. But the cameras across the street weren't."

Gabby played a video that showed someone in what looked like a Jedi Temple guard uniform was vandalizing the school walls, and using a key to get inside the school.

"Rachel Kharen." Gabby said. "My father, Anakin Skywalker, spoke to you earlier this week, right?"

"Yes, he did." Rachel said. "Why?"

"Did you tell him that you have keys to every room, that you lost?"

"Yes, I did tell him I have keys, but I didn't lose them. I just thought I did."

"Can you elaborate?"

Rachel explained that about three days before the pranking began, she was in school and the janitor couldn't find his key to access the closet. Luckily, one of the keys Rachel held was a spare key to the janitor's closet. Except, when she reached into her backpack to get them, they were gone! Not wanting Principal Brenden to think she was irresponsible, she immediately searched everywhere for her keys, and she found them in front of her locker.

"I guess I must've dropped them when I was getting my biology book out." Rachel said.

"Normally, that could be the case." Gabby said. "But then I remembered earlier this week, Grandpa couldn't find his keys, but luckily, Grandma had them because she was getting a copy made just in case. That made me think, if someone needed keys to every room, it's possible, they took your keys long enough to take a picture or make a plaster print to make copies later, and then planted them by your locker just so you wouldn't suspect anything. That brings us to the school play."

Gabby then showed pictures of the set for the play and the pranks.

"As you can see, many of these pranks at the school were pulled using equipment from the theater. And that led us to our biggest clue of all."

And then came pictures of the Temple guards.

"Comedia bumped into a temple guard twice. Once before the pranks started, and then another right before a bunch of pranks were played in the Jedi Temple. And Master Drallig confirmed the behavior of the guards. And thanks to Comedia, we know now exactly who the real culprit is."

People were in real suspense when Gabby got ready for the big reveal.

"The real culprit behind all this is... none other than Geneva Williams!"

DUN DUN DUUUN!

"Uncle Carmine!" Gabby scolded, her uncle playing the keytar again.

Carmine just laughed. Then things got serious again.

"What?! Why me?" Geneva said.

It all made sense. Geneva had amazing costume making skills, which she used to make a Temple Guard costume. And, she did come over to the Temple recently, allegedly to return a book Myra left behind, which gave her the perfect opportunity to study the Temple Guards' uniforms. Not only that, but she was the only one in the theater who wore cucumber eucalyptus body lotion.

"Something tells me if we question local locksmiths," said Gabby. "One of them is bound to recognize you, Geneva. So, do we have to have my cousin Lamenta invade the space of your mind, or do you wanna confess?"

Gabby had Garrett step up, and his eyes changed a bit to resemble those of a wolf. That scared Geneva.

"Alright! You got me! It was me! You happy?" Geneva said.

"The only thing I wanna know now is why." Comedia said. "Why'd you do it, Geneva? What did I ever do to you?"

"It wasn't about you," said Geneva, getting riled up. "It was about her!"

Geneva pointed to Teatra angrily.

"Me?" Teatra gasped. "What are you talking about?"

"You really don't remember me, do you?" Geneva said.

Teatra took a good look at her and said, "No, not ringing any bells."

"Well then, let's take a little trip back to five years ago, shall we?"

Five years ago... (Geneva's P.O.V.)

I was ten years old, so innocent and eager to chase my dreams. Back then, I wore glasses and I had braces, which probably why you don't recognize me.

Mom and Dad said they would let me take drama class if I got straight A's on my report card that semester, and I did. And I was told I was going to get to work under the finest Starway stars in the galaxy.

The play they were putting on this year was Wicked, my favorite musical of all time. I used to sing the soundtrack over and over again, dreaming of the day I'd get to play Elphaba. I worked so hard in my drama classes.

I sang the most emotional song that dug deep into the heart of that musical. It was brilliant.

Geneva:

Hands touch, eyes meet

Sudden silence, sudden heat

Hearts leap in a giddy whirl

He could be that boy

But I'm not that girl

(No .) Geneva had tears in her eyes then, really feeling the music.

Don't dream too far

Don't lose sight of who you are

Don't remember that rush of joy

He could be that boy

I'm not that girl

I sang so beautifully, and I spent months, years even, practicing just for that moment. But then, you just had to upstage me with your audition of Defying Gravity!

Teatra:

So if you care to find me

Look to the western sky

As someone told me lately

"Everyone deserves the chance to fly"

And if I'm flying solo

At least I'm flying free

To those who'd ground me

Take a message back from me

Tell them how I am defying gravity

And soon I'll match them in renown

And nobody in all of Oz

No wizard that there is or was

Is ever gonna bring me down!

Bring me down

Bring me down

Teatra then, she even flew with her real wings as she showed off her extraordinarily powerful voice, and had the casting directors in a standing ovation

And then, they picked the cast and crew. I desperately prayed I got a part in the play. But... my name wasn't on the cast list. I was made part of the wardrobe crew, while the starring role, the role of my dreams... went to a horse!

Present Day... (No P.O.V.)

"After I saw you were directing the school play, I saw an opportunity for my revenge." Geneva said. "You took a role that was rightfully mine, so I decided to destroy your career."

"Then why go after Comedia if you're mad at me?" Teatra said.

"It's like you said, the Mad Hatter is a key component to Alice in Wonderland. Everyone loves the Mad Hatter, and Comedia, like you said, would've made the production memorable for centuries. So, I decided to frame her for pranks using the theater prop and set equipment, knowing she would've been nearby. And, if she couldn't perform, the play wouldn't be as good, and with not enough stuff to make the set, the whole play would be messed up, and with you out of the way, I could've been a big star. And I would've gotten away with it too, if it weren't for that meddling princess."

Teatra shook her head in disappointment.

"Geneva, you don't get ahead in the arts by sabotaging other people. You start from the bottom, and make your way up to the top. Even the most talented people started out from nothing. My family was very poor before I became a Starway star. But I worked hard, and started out behind the scenes. You could've become a star, but by committing crimes like this, you've dishonored the theater world."

"Officers," said Gabby. "Take her away."

Geneva was placed in binders and taken away by the police to await further charges.

As for Comedia, Principal Brenden came up and said, "I'm so sorry, Comedia. Consider yourself officially un-expelled, and back in the school play."

Comedia whinnied happily, and she licked Gabby and thanked her for solving this mystery.

"It wasn't all me." Gabby said. "You had good friends to help out, and it was you who found the last clue that helped us identify the real culprit."

"We're gonna need a new wardrobe person now too." Teatra said. "Boba, do you think your girlfriend can help us out?"

"I'll call her and ask." Boba said, getting out his phone to call Roya.

Two weeks later...

"Alright, everyone! Places!" Teatra called from backstage.

Everyone got into their costumes, all of which were helped out and completed thanks to some help from one of Roya's best designers in her fashion business. When she heard what happened, she was more than happy to aid her boyfriend in the play out of the kindness of her heart. And this time, it looked like she would be the one bringing him flowers.

"Has anyone seen my ears?" Boba asked, his cat ears being the only thing missing.

"Found them!" Lumo said, picking up the ears and giving them to Boba.

Lumo was getting his chance after all. The guy who was supposed to play the Dormouse called in sick, and thanks to Comedia's tutoring, Lumo knew all the lines, and luckily he was almost the same size as the original actor. All they had to do was take it out a little bit.

"Everyone ready?" Teatra called. "Looking great everyone!"

"I'm so excited!" Comedia said, hopping up and down in her finally finished Mad Hatter costume.

"You earned it, Comedia. Just remember to save that energy for your cue."

"Okay."

Meanwhile, Myra, Omega and Boba, and Comedia's families all sat in the audience with the friends and family of the entire cast and crew.

"I've never been to a theater before." Wrecker said.

"Technically it is a school play," said Tech. "These don't tend to be very professional in an average school."

"Well, don't forget Teatra is the director." Mila said. "And she's talented."

The lights then started to dim.

"Shh! It's starting!" Padme whispered excitedly.

The crowd cheered as a spotlight shined and Teatra came onstage.

"Welcome, everyone." Teatra said. "To the Walker Prep production of Alice in Wonderland, directed by me, Teatra Stagehoof. The reason I chose this play is because in this world, everything at first, it seems nothing but nonsense, but when we really think about it, it somehow makes sense. So, everyone, please enjoy our production of Alice in Wonderland."

The audience clapped once again as the curtain rose and up on stage appeared Myra.

The play started to go really well.

"If I had a world of my own," said Myra, or rather Alice. "Everything would be nonsense."

Mace and Brenda looked so proud of their daughter as she played the starring role of Alice, and she looked beautiful in the blue dress. Her grandparents and her aunt looked proud of her too.

Everything on stage looked amazing from the costumes to the set, and the acting looked pretty professional too.

Scene where Alice meets the Cheshire Cat:

Gabby couldn't help laughing seeing her big brother dressed like a big pink cat and acting silly.

"Can you stand on your head?" Boba, or rather the Cheshire Cat, asked Alice.

"Hmph!" Myra scoffed.

"However, if I were looking for a white rabbit, I'd ask the Mad Hatter." Then he pointed in another direction with his foot. "Or, there is the March Hare in that direction. Of course... he is mad too."

"But I don't want to be among mad people." Myra said.

"Oh, that can't be helped. We're all mad here." Boba said, licking his paw and purring.

The Mad Tea Party Scene:

Pretty whistling music played as the set changed to a tea party, where out came Comedia as the Mad Hatter along with the March Hare

March Hare:

A very merry unbirthday

To me

Comedia:

To who?

March Hare:

To me

Comedia:

Oh, you

March hare:

A very merry unbirthday

To you

Comedia:

Who, me?

March Hare:

Yes, you

Comedia:

Oh, me

Let's all congratulate us with another cup of tea

Comedia poured another cup of tea

A very merry unbirthday to you

And Comedia tossed her hat up in the air and had a burst of confetti come from her horn.

Comedia delivered all her lines perfectly, and threw in blowing a few raspberries and acting very silly, which made the whole audience laugh. Teatra felt victorious as she heard everyone laughing so much with how well the Mad Hatter scene was doing.

Scene with the Queen of Hearts:

The White Rabbit blew a trumpet and introduced the Queen of Hearts as the three card guards and Alice were painting the white roses red. And for someone who was normally so sweet, Omega was a surprisingly terrifying queen when she acted angry. And as the Queen of Hearts, she was not happy to see her roses being painted.

Omega:

Who's been painting my roses red?

Who's been painting my roses red?

Who dares to paint with vulgar paint

The royal flower bed?

For painting my roses red

Someone will lose his head

Three, spoken:

Oh, no, your Majesty, please, it's all his fault!

TWO, spoken:

Not me, your Grace! The Ace, the Ace!

Omega:

You?

ACE, spoken:

No, Two!

Omega:

The deuce you say?

TWO, spoken:

Not me! The trey!

"That's enough! Off with their heads!" Omega, or rather the Queen of Hearts, declared. The other card guards cheered for their queen, and dragged the three who painted the roses away.

CARDS:

They're going to lose their heads

For painting the roses red

It serves them right

They planted white

And roses should be red

Oh, they're going to lose their heads -

But, the Queen of Hearts declared: "SILENCE!"

"Omega is so good," whispered Hunter.

The play continued on, and before they knew it, it was time for the curtain call.

The audience cheered as the cast all came out on stage and took a bow. Although the show was over, Comedia didn't cease from being silly. She'd even hopped backwards to enter for the curtain call and flew upside down, making everyone laugh.

Teatra thanked everyone for a job well done. Everyone's families were so proud of them. Comedia was especially happy that she was proven innocent. She got to play the Mad Hatter, she was back in school, and as a result, Geneva got expelled, but she took a deal of doing community service before house arrest, and her parents donated the money to get some special clearance cards made for the Jedi Temple guard to prevent a future break-in.

But, there was still one mystery Gabby and everyone else wondered. How did Garrett have such a keen sense of smell, and why was Goldie behaving so strangely?

"The answer is actually very simple." Garrett said in the next class. "Do you recall our last lesson about Enchanteds often referred to as monsters?"

"Yeah," said Anakin. "What about it?"

"Daddy told me recently." Goldie said nervously. "That part of it is in his side of the family."

"I only hope it doesn't make you see either of us any differently." Garrett said. "Not everyone knows about it, and it's essential you don't freak out when I tell you."

"What is it?" the kids all asked.

Garrett sighed and said, "Everyone... I'm a werewolf."
