The New Smurfs On The Block/Part 7

"Luckily we smurfed out that the explosion Gargamel was hoping for was the blue clay he thought Sassette was smurfed from that was located in Squeamy Squirmy Grotto, a dreadful place that I hope none of my little Smurfs will ever want to visit," Papa Smurf said. "Tracker was the first to notice this explosion, and since this meant our village was safe, I had Crazy summon all my little Smurfs to return to the village immediately."

And as Papa Smurf told this part of the story, Empath and Polaris saw that the Smurfs were now safe in the village, with Sassette now as an official member.

"How do you feel that you're one of us now, Sassette?" Snappy asked.

"Bouncing bullfrogs, I never thought that I would be as smurfy as I am right now, knowing that I'm a Smurf and all my fellow Smurfs want me and love me, including Pappy Smurf," Sassette said.

"Yes, well, being a Smurf is something that you'll always be for life, Sassette," Papa Smurf said. "And someday you'll get to grow up and be like your big sister Smurfette."

"But Smurfette said she wouldn't make me grow up to be like her, Pappy Smurf," Sassette said.

"That doesn't mean there aren't things that I can't teach you as a girl Smurf, Sassette, but your life will be your own from now on," Smurfette said.

"I guess that means you can smurf with us in our house...that is, until you've become a grown-up Smurf like Smurfette," Slouchy said.

"I wish I was a grown-up Smurf right now, Slouchy, because Smurfette sure looks smurfy to me," Snappy said.

"Yeah, I know how you feel, Snap," Nat said, as he and the other two Smurflings looked at Smurfette with eyes of attraction.

"Uh, Pappy Smurf, what's gotten into the boy Smurflings now?" Sassette asked.

Papa Smurf chuckled. "It's just that boy Smurflings will find girl Smurfs of an adult age to be very attractive. It's something that happens naturally, as I'm sure you may someday find boy Smurfs of an adult age to be just as attractive."

"Eeeewwww...I'd rather be kissing a frog than kissing a boy Smurf right now," Sassette said.

"You'd better watch out, Sassette...one of those frogs you kiss may smurf into a prince," Smurfette said with a giggle.

"Okay, then, I'd rather be kissing a porcupine than kissing either a frog or a boy Smurf," Sassette said. "Is that better?"

Papa Smurf chuckled. "I wouldn't mind if you smurfed me a kiss, Sassette, but only like a daughter to a father."

"I'll settle for smurfing you a hug, Pappy Smurf," Sassette said as she went to give Papa Smurf a great big hug.

"Just remember, Sassette, that it's Papa Smurf, not Pappy Smurf," Papa Smurf said.
