Smurfette's Evil Mirror/Part 6

Smurfette laughed when she heard from Papa Smurf where he had actually sent Gargamel to with his teleportation spell. "That is just so mean of you, Papa Smurf," Smurfette said. "You actually wanted to smurf that to him after all these years?"

"Well, Smurfette, it has been a long time smurfing for me, much as I wouldn't want to admit to any of my little Smurfs, because I'm supposed to be smurfing the example for all of you to smurf by," Papa Smurf said with a knowing smile of mischief on his face. "But now that we have accomplished smurfing ourselves rid of Gargamel for the time smurfing, we might as well smurf rid of that evil mirror of yours."

"Oh, please, Papa Smurf," Smurfette said, sounding like she was in agreement. "The sooner we smurf rid of that compact, the better."

"Stand back, Smurfette," Papa Smurf warned. After Smurfette stood back from the magic compact, Papa Smurf cast a spell on it that caused it to explode into nothingness.

At that same moment, the hypnotized Smurfs that were chasing Empath, Polaris, Tapper, and Duncan around the village had suddenly stopped in their tracks, looking like they had just been awakened from a dream.

"What the smurf were we doing?" one Smurf asked.

"Yeah, we were so busy with our telesmurfs that we didn't know what smurfed on," another Smurf said.

And as the Smurfs all were asking each other similar questions, Empath decided to answer them all. "Hear me, my fellow Smurfs," he spoke loudly, gathering their attention. "Gargamel was taking control of you through your portable telesmurfs, and was using you in order to bring him into the village to capture you. Papa Smurf has made sure that Gargamel won't bother us ever again through your devices."

"You mean this portable telesmurf was controlling us all along?" Hefty asked.

"I hate being controlled all along," Grouchy said.

"Well, I didn't think that my own reflection would be so captivating as to even control me," Vanity said.

"But what are we going to smurf now with our telesmurfs, Empath?" Brainy asked.

"Uh, yeah, what about those things?" Clumsy asked.

"I think it would be best if you smurfed those in to Papa Smurf until we can alter the devices so that no evil wizard can control you through them, my fellow Smurfs," Tapper said.

"Aye, laddie, that would be my suggestion as well," Duncan said.

Handy sighed as he pulled out his own portable telesmurf. "So much for my new invention that would help change things for the better around here," he said as he and all the other Smurfs dropped theirs into what became a big pile of portable telesmurfs.

Empath watched as the other Smurfs jettisoned their telesmurfs one by one and then walked away, with Polaris, Tapper, and Duncan also watching.

"This smurf never thought it would come to this for the Smurfs to reject a new form of communications technology, my fellow Smurfs," Empath said.

"Handy meant well with what he smured, my fellow Empath," Tapper said. "It is just unfortunate that it had to be smurfed to life through evil magic. Hopefully we may learn a lesson from all this."

"I wouldn't bet on this being the last we will smurf of the portable telesmurf, laddies," Duncan said. "If it's really that important, it's going to be smurfed better than it was before."

"We can only hope for the best, my friends," Polaris said.
