The Smurflings (Hero Stories)/Part 4

Natural opened the door and peered inside.

"Good! And now we must smurf that famous formula!" he said.

Soon the three Smurflings we searching through all of Gargamel's books and scrolls.

"Spellbooks! Parchments! Smurferies! But nothing about a Smurfette!" Natural said, as he looked through a book.

"Smurf this: "Incantation to become handsome." Hee hee hee! Gargamel mustn't know that spell's in here!" Slouchy said with laugh.

"No! If Gargamel comes back, we're the ones who won't be looking good! SO, SEARCH!" Snappy shouted.

"Hey! I think I've found it!" Natural called out to them, as he showed them a page with a drawing of Smurfette's original appearance, with the name Formulae Smurfettus is black letters.

"That's it!" Natural said.

"Geez! That's what Smurfette used to look like?" Snappy said sounding disgusted, before he proceeded to rip the page out. "We'll smurf out the page! And let's smurf back to the village!"

"Just in time! I hear Gargamel's voice!" Natural said, as they left the hovel and back into the forest.

Gargamel was returning to his hovel, waving his fist angrily.

"Go ahead and hide, you horrible tomcat! You still won't get out of taking a bath!" he fumed, as he entered the hovel. He sniffed the air.

"It stinks of Smurf in here!" he said, before he noticed his spellbooks on the floor.

"My spellbooks!" he shouted, as he picked a book up and noticed a certain formula was missing. "Ah! The little monsters! They've taken my Smurfette formula! If they want to make another one, they'll need blue clay! But there exists only one place where one can find that kind of soil... And that's in the cave of the Source! HA! HA! HA! I have to get there before they do!" he said, as he took a parchment and left his hovel.

...

Back in the Village, the Smurflings looked over the Smurfette formula.

"Okay! We'll smurf all these ingredients in Papa Smurf's laboratory! But..." Natural said.

"But I've never seen blue clay in there..." Slouchy said.

"Let's go ask Papa Smurf where we can find some!" Snappy suggested.

The three then seen Papa Smurf sitting outside Nikolai's Bar, enjoying a nice cold drink.

"Papa Smurf! Do you know where we can find blue clay?" Slouchy asked.

"In the cave of the Source! Why?" Papa Smurf answered.

"Oh! Just curious!" Slouchy said, trying to sound innocent.

"Yeah!" Natural added.

"Thanks, Papa Smurf!" Snappy said.

"That's bizarre! I wonder what those three are busy smurfing? Are they going to go into the cave?" Papa Smurf thought to himself.

But what they didn't know was that Gargamel was already at the cave of the Source.

"And now to throw the spell!" he said, as he unraveled a parchment and began the incantation, "ABRACADASPROOTCH DZZMERLI TOCK! And voila! Now any bit of this clay exposed to the noon-day sun will EXPLODE! Ha! Ha! Ha!" Gargamel laughed evilly, before he proceeded to leave the cave.

"Let the Smurfs come! They'll get a surprise! Ha! Ha! Ha! Okay! Now I must find Azrael and make him take A BATH." he said.

The Smurflings soon arrived at the entrance.

"Ah! We're there!" Natural said, pointing to the entrance.

"AZRAEL! WHERE ARE YOU?" Gargamel's voice boomed from nearby.

Just then a sound came from closeby, Slouchy turned and seen Azrael was hiding amongst the foliage. The three then proceeded into the cave and placed a batch into the bucket they had brought.

"Now that we smurf the famous blue clay! Let's smurf back to the village!" Natural said.

...

Late that night, Papa Smurf was heading home, when he seen the Smurflings just standing around acting casual.

"Well? Did you smurf the cave?" Papa Smurf asked.

"The cave?" Snappy asked, sounding like he didn't know.

"Ah, yes! The cave!" Slouchy added.

"What cave?" Natural asked, pretending to sound like he didn't know.

"I'm certain they're smurfing something from me... Hmmm!" Papa Smurf thought to himself before he bid goodnight to the Smurflings.

"Goodnight, Papa Smurf!" Slouchy said.

Once the coast was clear, the three Smurflings then proceeded to Papa Smurf's laboratory with the clay and the formula to create another Smurfette.

"Let's get to work," Natural said.

"Agreed!" Snappy answered, before they got started.

"We have to smurf a fire..." Natural said, as he looked through the formula.

"Find the right ingredients..." Snappy said.

"First, fill a basin halfway with water!" Natural said.

"Then smurf the clay into the water!" Slouchy said, as he placed the clay into the water.

"Here are all the bottles I smurfed!" Snappy said, running over with more bottles than he can carry.

The Smurflings then proceeded to work all night.

"Here's the candle!" Natural said.

"I have some white thread!" Slouchy said.

"Good!" Snappy said.

"Is it ready yet?" Natural asked.

"Yes! We can't smurf it on the fire!" Slouchy said.

"Get smurfing! It'll be dawn soon!" Snappy said, as the three placed the basic onto the fire.

Snappy then noticed something on the opposite side of the formula.

"Hey! There's more!" he said.

"What do you mean?" Natural asked.

"Look!" snappy said, flipping the page over, revealing an incantation that must be said.

"There's an incantation that must be smurfed," Natural said.

"Well, Let's get to it," Slouchy said, before they held hands and began to chant an incantation.

"Wrath of the wind, Cry of the blue, Howl of the Wolf where there isn't a moon, Magical Mixture, Magical Spell, Bring forth a Smurfette at the sound of this bell" they all chanted before Natural rang a tiny bell in his hand.

"Hello!" a voice called.

"Oh!" Slouchy said, not believing what he was seeing.

"Eh!" Natural said in complete surprise.

"Hmm..." Snappy said.

The formula was successful, a Smurfette was created, but she was the same size of the Smurflings and had orange hair in two ponytails. The Smurflings looked away due to her not wearing any clothes.

"Uh, do you have something to wipe off with?" the female asked innocently.

"Oh, sorry!" Here!" Slouchy said, handing her a towel to dry herself, trying to not look at her.

"and to dress me in?" she asked again.

"Will this do?" Snappy asked, offering her a set of pink overalls, also trying to not look at her.

"Perfect!" she said, as she took the overalls and put them on. "Say, what an I doing here? What's my name? And who are you?"

"Well, we're Smurfs! This is, Smurflings!" Slouchy answered.

"And your name is... uh..." Snappy said, trying to figure out what to call her.

"Sassette?" Natural suggested.

"Sassette? That's a pretty name! But where did I come from?" Sassette asked.

"We'll explain that to you later! Come! First we're going to introsmurf you to Smurfette!" Snappy said, as he took her hand and left the lab, with Natural and Slouchy trailling behind them.

"Who's Smurfette?" Sassette asked.
