King Of The Smurfs (Hero Stories)/Part 3

Sometime later, Jokey decided to play a prank on Hefty, he found him standing guard outside the palace.

"Hey, Hefty! I brought you a surprise," Jokey said, placing the gift box in front of him.

"It better be something worthy of a General Colonel Captain," Hefty responded.

"I guarantee you'll get a big bang out of it," Jokey said with a sleazy smile.

Hefty proceeded to open the gift box and it exploded in his face, making Jokey and three other Smurfs to laugh hysterically. Hefty proceeded to aim his halberd straight at Jokey; accidentally poking his finger.

"Ouch!" Jokey called out.

"A wise Smurf huh?" Hefty said in an angry tone of voice. "You're under arrest! Now get moving!"

"Arrested? Jokey?" the other three Smurfs said, sounding completely surprised as they watched Hefty march Jokey straight into the palace. Brainy was busy sitting in his throne with a big grin on his face, he noticed Jokey approaching him with Hefty behind him, spear facing straight and his face blacked out by the soot.

"What is the meaning of this?" Brainy demanded.

"You see, your smurfship," Hefty began. "Jokey smurfed me one of his gift boxes and when I opened it..."

"And BOOM! Right?" Brainy said with a chuckle. "Look, Hefty, you know full well that's one of Jokey's oldest jokes! Where's your sense of humor, Hefty? Case dismissed!"

"Thanks, King Smurf," Jokey said, offering him a gift box. "Here's a little something for you."

"That's nice of you, Jokey," Brainy said. "But you must say 'sire' to me."

"Don't mention it!" Jokey said with sleazy smile, before turning away to wait for the boom. Brainy proceeded to open the box and it exploded in his face, causing Jokey and other Smurfs to laugh hysterically.

"SILENCE!" Brainy shouted. "THROW HIM IN PRISON!"

"Prison? Hey wait!" Jokey said, as Hefty led him off to prison.

"Prison?" a Smurf said.

"Jokey?" a second Smurf added.

Sometime later, Jokey was now imprisoned in a palace tower, wearing a black and white striped Smurf hat and pants and his foot was chained to a large steel ball.

"This is a joke right?" Jokey said to himself. "They're just kidding right? They're not kidding."

The news of Jokey's imprisonment began to spread throughout the village.

"It's just like I smurfed you! He's had Jokey Smurf smurfed into prison!" one of the Smurfs told the crowd.

"I honestly now feel like Brainy's lost his smurf and has become mad with power!" Dempsey said.

"I'm beginning to believe you, laddie," Hawkeye responded.

"Me too!" Fergus added.

"That's disgraceful! A Smurf would never smurf this!" Greedy said, sounding really angry.

"It's outrageous!" Lazy said, sounding really tired before falling quickly asleep.

"I hate rages!" Grouchy muttered to himself.

"Eh, gosh, I can't believe Brainy's smurfing like this," Clumsy said, feeling somewhat down. "He doesn't smurf like the Brainy that I've known all these years."

Smurfette put her hand on his shoulder in order to show him support, he turned to face her and bravely smiled.

"Alright, laddies!" Fergus called out, getting the attention of the others. "Let's go smurf Jokey out of prison."

"Yeah!" all the Smurfs said in unison, agreeing with what Fergus said. They all began to march towards the palace whilst chanting "Free Jokey!" and "Down with King Smurf!"

One of the guard Smurfs seen the large group approaching the palace, he quickly went to warn Brainy of their approach.

"King Smurf! The Smurfs are smurfing to the palace while smurfing anti-King Smurf and Free Jokey statements!" the guard said.

"Call out the guard!" Brainy demanded.

As the large group of Smurfs converged on the palace, Brainy had his guards protect the entrance. The Smurfs just chanted "Free Jokey!" and "Down with King Smurf!"

Brainy stepped out to meet the Smurfs, "Now everyone go home! Or else!" he said adamantly, as Hefty and his guards began to push the other Smurfs back; they all voiced their frustrations.

"Smurfette! What are we gonna do?" Clumsy asked.

"I don't know, Clumsy," Smurfette answered. "But we must think of something fast. How about we gather as many Smurfs as possible and meet in my house in order to discuss ideas?"

Fergus overheard what she said, "You can count me and Hawkeye in, lassie," he said. "We want to help the laddie out of prison."

"Thank you, Fergus," Smurfette answered with a smile.

As the Smurfs had now gotten too preoccupied on helping Jokey escape from prison, they had now completely forgotten about the dam and the rising river levels now exceeding dangerous levels as more more began to seep through.
