In the elementary school, Annabelle was introduced, after class, the girls went to the library as a visit and assignment from the teacher. Annabelle found a book on fairies and flipped through it, deciding to maybe check it out.

"You really like fairies, huh?" Darla asked.

"My mother always told me stories about them..." Annabelle said with a smile.

"She must have been kind and beautiful." Amber said.

"She really was... I always thought she was an angel..." Annabelle hugged the book.

Darla and Amber took Annabelle to the librarian to check the book out. The man nodded and allowed Annabelle to borrow it and told her to bring it back in a week.

"Yes sir." Annabelle promised as she firmly held the book, being very careful with it, it looked like a very old book.

What none of the girls didn't knew was that fairies were real that included fairy godmothers, the Tooth Fairy, and something else.

"Would you like to come over after school?" Darla invited.

"I'd love to, but I might have to go home with Charlie." Annabelle replied, eager for that to happen, but she of course, needed her father's permission.

"We understand." Amber said as they looked into the book with their new friend.

Annabelle flipped through the pages and smiled at each picture. "I really liked Flora, Fauna, and Merryweather..." she said, about the fairies from Sleeping Beauty. "Sometimes I wish I had fairy friends..."

"Yeah, fairies sure do look like they could be great friends." Amber said.

The girls were bonding very well.

After the theater, Cherry left with Atticus and Patch.

"That wasn't so bad..." Cherry still sounded in denial about how she was being bossed around by the pushy director.

"Wasn't so bad? The guy kept on being bossy and pushy." Atticus said.

"It's nothing wrong... Totally fine..." Cherry giggled, a little twitchy.

The director waved to her and went on his way home.

"He's fine, a great man..." Cherry grabbed a knife prop. "He just gives me the strength--" she then saw the director was out of earshot and she started to pretend to stab herself with the prop. "TO END MY OWN LIFE!" she then snapped.

"She's back..." Patch smiled a little now that Cherry was herself again.

"Yep, our Cherry is back." Atticus smiling, to see Cherry acting like herself again.

"That man is without a doubt the worst person I've ever had the 'pleasure' of knowing," Cherry continued as she dropped the prop. "He's worse than Nigel St. Nigel!"

"Who's Nigel St. Nigel?" Patch asked.

"Don't ask, you're better off not knowing!" Cherry whined, putting her hand to her face. "What does he think I am?"

"I can guess and say that he thinks your just a teenager that would be perfect for his stagehand." Atticus guessed.

Cherry growled, 'stabbing' herself in the heart, but of course had no avail since it was a prop.

"Yikes, if that was a real dagger, you would be dead by now." Patch said.

"I kinda wish it was..." Cherry murmured. "I'm gonna go home, you guys wanna come?"

"Sure." Atticus and Patch said.

Cherry went home with them, she saw the clean dishes in the clean section and quickly put them away where they belonged while the boys went on her couch. "I heard Oliver Greening's daughter was going to Darla's school."

"Yep and I can already tell that she's going to be friends with Darla and Amber on the first day." Atticus said.

"That's good, it can be tough being the new kid sometimes..." Cherry said once she finished putting up the dishes, then looked for something for them to watch that they could all agree on. "I was the new kid four times growing up... It was first scary, but then I got used to it."

"Same with me, at first I was excited to be in puppy school, but when I got there, I was scared being the new pup, the only ones I knew there were Scamp, Angel, and the triplets." Patch said.

"That'll do it..." Cherry said with a small shrug. "It can be magical sometimes though... Have you met any cute pups yet?" she then smirked, knowing that Patch was eager to impress a girl pup to make her all his.

Atticus and Cherry then saw Patch blush, meaning one thing he had met a cute puppy.

Cherry smirked. "How adorable..."

"So, who's the lucky girl?" Atticus asked, smirking.

"Colette." Patch said, smiling while blushing.

"Colette..." Cherry tried to think. "That's the one with the red collar, right?"

"Yeah..." Patch replied, nearly turning into a pink Dalmatian, but still retained his black spots. "She's really nice, and sweet, and smart... She's a lot like her mother... Mum told me about her days in the shelter with Mrs. Tramp before they got adopted. Jim Dear adopted her on Christmas for Darling and Mum was adopted when Anita felt a little lonely since she didn't know Roger yet..."

"Maybe your mother can visit her too when she comes to see you." Cherry suggested with a smile.

"Yeah, that way it'll be a happy friends and family reunion." Atticus said.

"Yeah..." Cherry flipped through the channels, but stopped at a soap opera.

Patch looked bored. "Change the channel please."

"In a minute..." Cherry said, not wanting to, even if she hated soap operas as much as the boys did, she actually watched this program, but for a personal reason.

"Are you watching this out of personal reasons?" Atticus asked.

"Noooo?" Cherry looked away as she kept a firm hold on the remote, refusing to let them change the channel.

The doctor on the soap opera appeared, making Cherry blush and look a little delighted. The doctor asked for something from the nurse, he took it, but he was losing the patient. The doctor seemed to improvise, this could not had been in the script, because he was pounding the patient on the chest with his fist to bring the heart beat monitor back up.

"Is he trying to bring the patient back to life or wanting to kill her/him even more?" Patch asked.

The blonde and rather ditzy nurse cheered. "He's alive!"

The doctor looked full of himself that he succeeded in bringing the patient 'back to life'.

"I can't wait to see him..." Cherry whispered.

"What?" Atticus and Patch looked at her.

"Huh?" Cherry looked to them, she actually wasn't aware that she had said something then.

"What do you mean you can't wait to see him?" Patch asked.

"Oh... Him?" Cherry looked to the TV at the doctor. "He's actually going to be in the play too... He's flying by on a plane tonight."

"You want his autograph?" Atticus asked.

Cherry looked defensive. "What're you implying!?"

"Are you a fan of his?" Patch asked.

Cherry folded her arms with a blush. "I think you oughta leave..."

Atticus and Patch rolled their eyes then.

When it got to curfew, Atticus and Patch went back home, Darla was looking through her old chest and tossing some things out over her shoulder, she was looking for a specific thing, but couldn't find it so far.

"Hey Darla," Atticus said and then was confused when he saw what she was doing. "Are you looking for something?"

"Flannigan gave me a fairy princess wand for my birthday one year," Darla said as she struggled, nearly giving up. "I wanna give it to Annabelle."

"Aw! That's so kind of you. You know fairies are real." Atticus said.

"They are?" Darla asked as she dug further, then smiled as she finally took out the pink and glittery wand that had a shining star with white rhinestones and red hearts decorated around it and she smiled in victory. "Gotcha!"

"Cool wand." Patch said.

"Yes, fairies are real and so is magic," Atticus said. "It's amazing in the right hands, but in the wrong hands of someone pure evil, it is very dangerous."

"I never knew any fairies when I was growin' up," Darla shrugged with a smile. "Well, maybe someday, one will visit Annabelle..."

"Maybe," Patch smiled. "Are you guys friends now?"

"Yeah..." Darla grinned. "I think we're gonna be like the Three Musketeers, only being girls of course..." she added softly.

"Yeah, you three could be the very first female versions of The Three Musketeers." Atticus said.

Darla giggled, she then decided to put the wand in her backpack now so she wouldn't forget it the very next morning. She really hoped her new friend was doing all right, with her beliefs in fairies while being the new kid in school at the same time.

"So, anyways, let's get inside." Atticus said.

Darla nodded, it was a little late, about close to her bedtime. However, that night was going to change the normality of some things.
