NOTE: This story is not considered canon to the HERO: The Guardian Smurf story series.

It has been about two months since Hero and Wonder had gone away on their honeymoon together, and now the Smurfs were beginning to wonder about the two Smurfs, whether they were going to return anytime soon and begin their ordinary life in the village as a married couple.

Papa Smurf was in his laboratory doing some cleaning up, trying to keep his mind off the growing concerns of his little Smurfs, when Nikolai entered with a tray of hot smurfberry tea and a cup. "Would you care for a little refreshment at this time, Papa Smurf?" Nikolai asked.

"Thank you, Nikolai, I would appreciate it very much," Papa Smurf said, taking the cup and letting Nikolai pour the tea into the cup before he sipped it.

"I know it's been two months since Hero and Wonder smurfed away on their honeymoon and things have been rather busy since with all those incidents smurfing place," Nikolai said. "Every Smurf seems to be smurfing very anxious waiting for their return, and I don't know what I can smurf about it."

"You're smurfing the best you can with the job you have at the tavern, Nikolai," Papa Smurf said. "I just wish that there was a Smurf who could counsel the Smurfs when I'm not around to smurf the job or when I'm too busy for them."

"I'm sure that Smurf would do an excellent job at that, Papa Smurf," Nikolai said. "I would personally recommend Abloec since he seems to smurf a lot of wisdom from that holy book of his, plus he has that caring kind of spirit for all his fellow Smurfs."

"We'll smurf through this, no matter how long it takes for Hero and Wonder to return here, Nikolai," Papa Smurf said.

Just then, they heard Tracker calling out. "Smurfs! It's them...Hero and Wonder! They're returning!"

Papa Smurf and Nikolai both left the laboratory together and gathered with the other Smurfs around the north end clearing, watching as the crane that carried Hero and Wonder made its descent toward the clearing until it landed, lowering its neck so that Hero and Wonder could jump off. Both of them were dressed rather casually in their normal clothes as they arrived.

"Hero, Wonder, it's so great to smurf you again," Papa Smurf greeted, giving them both a hug. "So how was the honeymoon together?"

"Oh, it was great, Papa Smurf," Wonder answered. "It felt like every day together was a new adventure."

"You weren't worrying about us when we were away, were you, Papa Smurf?" Hero asked.

"No, of course not, Hero," Papa Smurf answered. "I knew the both of you would be safe together. It's the village that I was worrying about more since we didn't have you as our protectors."

"I'd like to hear all that has smurfed on here without us being here, Papa Smurf," Hero said.

"I'm sure your fellow Smurfs would smurf in all the details that I alone wasn't privy to," Papa Smurf said.

"Hello there, Hero," Smurfette greeted as she approached. "I trust that you and Wonder had a wonderful time together as a newlywed couple."

"We enjoyed ourselves immensely, Smurfette, trust me," Hero said. "Although there were times when I was thinking of you being back in the village with all the other Smurfs."

"I was thinking of you as well, Smurfette," Wonder said. "I was thinking that the Smurf that married you should smurf the chance of enjoying our private honeymoon getaway so that you would know what it's like."

"You have a private honeymoon getaway?" Smurfette asked, sounding incredulous. "Oh, I would love to see what it smurfs like...but unfortunately I can't seem to find the right Smurf to marry right now."

"He'll come along sooner or later, Smurfette," Wonder said. "Just be patient."

"So what was it like to enjoy one of the greatest treasures in all of Smurfland, my dear laddie?" Fergus asked as he approached.

"Oh, come on, Fergus, that's between me and Wonder," Hero answered.

"I can't help it if I'm that curious about what smurfs on underneath the hat, my boy," Fergus said. "You've been waiting for that day for about five years now, haven't you?"

"Well, if you must know, Fergus, it was definitely worth the wait," Wonder said.

"Come, come, my fellow Fergus, you know it's not polite to ask a married couple about intimate details of their marriage," Abloec said as he approached. "What smurfs on between them is strictly their business to know and the Almighty's."
