The Grey Smurfs (Hero Stories)/Part 8

Over the course of the next few days, the Smurfs were busy clearing a road of rocks, "Whew...I'm sick and tired of smurfing these rocks!" Hawkeye said, "Yeah me too!" Edward said. Just then a Grey Smurf came over, "Hey, you two! This isn't a vacation! This road must be smurfed of rocks before the fall! So get a smurf on!" he ordered, just then he heard the voice of the Great Chief, "RALLY!" he shouted, "Didn't you Smurfs here? They said RALLY!" he said, poking Hawkeye with the spear, "OW! Once is all we need to smurf...you don't need to smurf us again like that!" he answered angrilly.

All the Smurfs were gathered at the bottom of a hill, the Great Chief stood at the top, "My dear Smurf friends! You've been wondering why you've been smurfed with these balls and chains! Do not worry... you are not our prisoners.." he said, "PRISONERS?!...if we not your prisoners we wouldn't have these balls and chains smurfed to our feet!" Smurfette butted in, "SILENCE!" a Grey Smurf said, shoving the butt of his spear into the back of her head, knocking her to the ground, "DON'T TOUCH HER!" Hero shouted, as he tried to run for Smurfette, but he suddenly felt a electric shock, stopping him in his tracks, the Great Chief sniggered, "With that Smurf we smurfed a electrical collar round his neck...anyways, unfortunately you have been smurfed all your years in recklessness and without discipline..." he continued, "It is time that you become real Smurfs! Then you can join us!". Wonder ran over to Hero, "Are you ok, Hero?" she asked, Hero stuggled to his feet, "Yes, this smurf has to help Smurfette" he said, when he got to Smurfette he seen her holding her head, "Let this smurf help you Smurfette" he said kindly, "Thanks, Hero!" she answered, so Hero placed his hands on Smurfette's head and used his energy to heal her. "Thank you" she said, "Anytime" Hero answered.

Brainy clapped after the speech, "Now thse are well smurfed words!" he said, this annoyed Fergus, who then swung his ball and chain round striking Brainy in the head, the Great Chief started speaking again, "We only will become one single naton, and we will be...INVINCIBLE!" he shouted, there was silence as the Smurfs refused to applaud, this angered the Grey Smurfs, "We must applaud! Applaud now or i will..." a Grey Smurf said, before slipping on a pile of small rocks and landing on his head, the Smurfs clapped after that little show. The Great Chief was furious, "You dare laugh at us! We smurf you a lesson! Smurf them all without bread and water!" he ordered.

"Forward, you Smurfs, and hurray! You're all smurfing back to camp!" Grey Hefty said, the Great Chief along with Hero saw him take the Smurfs the camp, "Great Chief, I have an idea of what to do with those Smurfette's" Hero said, "What is your idea?" the Great Chief asked, Hero whispered the idea in his ear, he liked the idea, "That's a smurfy idea, Hey Dempsey, Fergus smurf those Smurfette's to my chamber tonight!" the Great Chief ordered, "Yes, Great Chief!" he said together. The Smurfs soon found themselves back in their camp, "Work or be smurfed up here in this camp...they really smurf us here like slaves!" Hero said, "At least when you're here, you're not smurfing those balls around" Wonder added, ''"Work...always work! I can't smurf it anymore! I need to smurf out of here!" Scaredy said, "I'm going to smurf a very,very long tunnel, and when I out of it. I'm going to be free!"'' he said.

"Poor Scaredy! All that work finally Smurfed to his head!" Wonder said, "If this smurfs up, we'll be just like him!" Smurfette added, "Look at Papa Smurf! He's been smurfing like that ever since we got smurfed in here!" Hero said, pointing to Papa Smurf, who was sitting on a rock, looking glum, "It's time that we smurfed a few words with him!" Hefty said, "Papa Smurf, what's smurfing on here? You're usually the last Smurf who would give up! Isn't there something that we can smurf? Surely you must be thinking of a way out of this!" he said. Papa just looked at him, "Alas, my little Smurfs, there is nothing that we can smurf! Sit down and I will smurf you everything..." he said.

Before Papa could tell the Smurfs everything, Grey Dempsey and Fergus came and began taking both Smurfette and Wonder away, "HEY WHAT ARE YOU SMURFING?" Hero shouted, as he chased them, but he was yet again stopped by an electric shock, causing him to drop to his knee's, Grey Dempsey sniggered, "The Great Chief demands we smurf these Smurfette's to hs chamber tonight, so we are smurfing them away till then" he said, as he and Fergus took them away, "HELP US HERO!" they shouted together, "SILENCE!" they shouted, "He can't help you!" Fergus said''. When Hero recovered from the shock he went back to be with the other Smurfs, "I'll smurf them, I'll smurf them all!" he said, "I know you will Hero!" Papa said, "But right now, just listen to waht I have to smurf!"''.

Papa soon began explaining the situation regarding the Grey Smurfs, "You remember long ago how selfish and irascible you all were, how yoy kept lighting all the time...So much that you would not even listen to me anymore, your own Papa Smurf...We were all headed for a disaster. It was then that I decided that you all needed to be smurfed a good lesson...I remembered a magic formula that would help me smurf a very complicated case...After along night in my laboratory, I had smurfed off into the forest...There, in a clearing not far from us, by the light of dawn. I have smurfed a magic powder...and created a whole other village...it was populated by Smurfs that were embodied with the bad things about each of us...I wanted for you to meet these Smurfs and smurf in them what you would become, so you would smurf to your senses!" he finshed. This left the Smurfs in a state of shock.

"So it was you all along who smurfed these pesky Smurfs?" Hefty said, "But if you could make those Smurfs appear, you can also make them disappear!" Hawkeye said, Papa sighed, "Yes, I could do that! Unfortunately I cannot!" he said, "You see, during the attack on the village, all my spellbooks have been smurfed..." he said, "So now all is lost?" Hawkeye said, "Alas, yes, I' afraid!" Papa said sadly. "Unless...Papa Smurf!" Hero said, "If I smurf this correctly, isn't this village the same as ours?" he asked, "That's true!" Papa said in surprisement, "So in this village, there should be a laboratory like ours, and in this laboratory, there should be spellbooks that are identical to yours!" Hero said, "Hmmm...I can see what you're trying to smurf at, Hero!" Papa said, "But the thing is, it must be the exact copy of the spellbook I smurfed and the one that the Grey Smurfs have not burned yet!" Papa said.

"You never know, Papa Smurf! At least you should try!" Hero said, "You're right...but how will we find out if the laboratory is still there?" Papa said, "Just leave it to me! I have an idea!" Jokey said, as he made his way to a guard patrolling that gate. "Hey, pssst! is it true what they've been smurfing in the camp? It smurfs that you, the Grey Smurfs are very stupid!" he said convincingly, this angered the Grey Smurf, ''"WHAT? Who dares to smurf that? and why?" he shouted, "Well..." Jokey continued, "They say that you don't even smurf a laboratory!" he said, "Of course we have one! It is the old abandoned house, over there, at the bottom of the village!" he said, "But we have no right to smurf...or even talk to you! Go smurf off now!"'' he said, as he poked his spear through the gate causing Jokey to run back to the others.

"I knew it! Those Smurfs really are stupid!" Jokey laughed, "Good work, Jokey!" Papa said. ''"Here is my plan...Hefty, Jokey, Hero. I want you to..." he began to whisper, but a Grey Smurf caught them, "Hey, what's this smurfing on here? Smurfing so softly are we? Disperse, all of you!" he ordered, the four of them dispersed and acted innocent, Hefty spotted a hole in the far corner, he could hear Scaredy's voice, "Hee hee hee! Soon, thanks to this tunnel, I'll be free! it may smurf a good while. but I'll be free and I won't have to work anymore!"'' he said.

...

That night both Smurfette and Wonder were taken to the Great Chief's chamber by Grey Dempsey and Fergus, when they arrived they could see the Great Chief sitting in what looked liked a king's throne, with Grey Hero standing beside him, "I trust the two of you have been treated well by my little Smurfs?" the Great Chief said, "Treated well?" Wonder said, "You Smurfs are nothing but monsters!" she said, "I agree with Wonder, you Smurfs are nothing but monsters!" Smurfette said, "Monster is such an unsmurfy word my dear's...we are gentlesmurfs" the Great Chief said.

"Why did you smurf us here?" Smurfette demanded, "Hero has smurfed up a smurfy idea, and I hope you two accept what he asks you!" the Great Chief said, "Thank you, Great Chief!" Hero said, "Let me ask you two questions...are you two happy with your fellow Smurfs?" he asked, "Of course we are!" Wonder said, "You may think your happy, but let me ask you this...do you feel respected by your fellow Smurfs?" he asked again, both Smurfette and Wonder kept silent, "I thought so..." Hero said, "That is why, I ask you this...the two of you...marry me and in return, not only will you two be treated with respect but also we will let your fellow Smurfs free" Hero said. This question shocked both Smurfette and Wonder.

"Marry you!" Smurfette said, "We refuse!" Wonder said, "If you don't accept his offer, then Papa Smurf will be executed at dawn!" the Great Chief said, "YOU CAN'T SMURF SUCH A UNSMURFY THING!" Smurfette shouted, "Accept Hero's offer and none of your fellow Smurfs will be harmed" the Great Chief said, "What can we smurf, Smurfette?" Wonder whispered, "I donn't know, Wonder!" Smurfette whispered, "It seems we have no choice...Okay we'll do it, we'll marry him" Smurfette said, as a tear dropped from her eye, "Please just don't harm any of our fellow Smurfs" Wonder said, as a tear dropped from her eye.

"Excellent, the three of you will get married tomorrow at dawn" the Great Chief said, "Come Hero, we must smurf this to the other Smurfs...they will love this announcement" as he and Grey Hero sniggered.
