The Hungry Smurfs (Hero Stories)/Part 4

It soon got dark, and the smurfs were busy walking across the frozen landscape, bearing the full force of the heavy snowfall. Wolves were howling in the distance, which made most of the smurfs fear of being eaten. The smurfs spent countless days walking... night and day... climbing mountains... crossing chasms... they struggle against fatigue and most of all, hunger.

But one day, there was a terrible blizzard, which made it very hard for the smurfs to see, "Stay close together my little smurfs" Papa shouted, "I can't go on Grandpa Smurf" Saviour shouted, "I just can't". "But we must Saviour" Papa shouted back, "Like I smurfed, stay together and keep moving". Eventually the blizzard died down and soon Papa could see a castle in the distance, "Hey look!" he shouted, as he pointed out into the distance, "A castle!!", all the smurfs were soon cheering, "Surely there are occupants in that castle!" Hawkeye said, "And where there are occupants, there's smurf to EAT!" Greedy added.

All the smurfs ran as fast as they could towards the castle, and soon got to the front door, Hefty tried pushing the door with all his strength, but couldn't move the door an inch, "No luck, Papa Smurf, I can't smurf this door" he said, catching his breath. Papa soon noticed an open window close by, "We'll have to boost someone up!, ok my little smurfs form a tower". Soon the smurfs formed a tower and soon they were inside the castle, "Come on!" Papa said, "There's nobody here!".

The smurfs looked around and noticed the castle was all dusty and cobwebs hung from the ceiling, "Yuck!, it's full of spider-smurfs here!" Fergus said, "Yes!, it's like this castle is abandoned!" Hero added, Saviour was shaking with fear, "I'm scared! Papa" she said, "Let's smurf out of here!", Hero got down on one knee and hugged his daughter, "Don't worry Saviour" he said sweetly, "I'll protect you", Saviour smiled and hugged her father, "Thanks Papa" she whispered.

Papa looked around, "Ok my little smurfs, let's try to find the kitchen" he said, suddenly there was the sound of footsteps coming towards them, all the smurfs froze with fear, "Careful! someone's coming! smurf yourselves!" Papa said. The smurfs ran around trying to find any cover they could find, The footsteps got louder and louder and soon they all seen that it was only a mouse. The smurfs emerged from their hiding places,"Whew, it was only a mouse" Hefty said, "I was a-smurf!" Brainy added.

Papa had a puzzled look on his face, he stroked his beard and noticed there was a small hole in the wall. "Indeed, maybe this hole leads to the kitchen?", Papa soon looked through the hole and he could see light at the other end. "There's light at the end, come on!, follow me!" he announced to the others. The smurfs were soon making their way through the hole, "Smurf!, it's as dark as smurf in here!" Takeo said, "SMURF UP TAKEO!!, every smurf doesn't want to hear you complain" Nikolai said.

Papa was soon at the other end, and looked around the wide-open room, "Hello?, it looks like we're in the armoire!", he looked both ways, "There's nothing here my little smurfs...let's go" Papa said, as the smurfs began to enter the room, but what they didn't know is that there was a human sitting in the chair, staring down at them.
