Just in case you are not sure, this chapter is a bit of a parity to the movie "The First Wives Club". Starring Bette Midler, Goldie Hawn, and Diane Keaton. The song "You Don't Own Me" is borrowed for this chapter.

Chapter 11 – The First Smurfettes Club
Toughette and Sorcerette led the time-traveling smurfs back down the hall as soon as the excitement of watching Papa and Grandpa Smurf leaving off on the motorcycles.
"Where are you taking us now?" Vanity asked as he glanced nonchalantly at his mirror.
"Back to the kitchen." Toughette answered simply.
"Yeah, we need to clean up the lunch dishes and pull out the prepped food for dinner." Sorcerette added with a slightly chipper attitude.
"You smurfs are sure busy around here." Smurfette noted.
"Sister," Toughette snorted. "You have no idea..."
'Sister,' Smurfette thought happily. 'It really feels good to have other smurfettes my own age.' She kept smiling as the future smurfettes led them to the cafeteria.
As the smurfettes and the time-traveling smurfs walked through the cafeteria doors they were stunned to see that Nat and Slouchy had already started the clean-up process of the dishes.
"Oh, I thought you two were watching a movie with the smurflings?" Toughette wondered with her eyebrow raised in suspicion.
"Yeah, but we figured you may need a little help getting this mess cleaned up." Nat pointed out.
"Cool, thanks." Sorcerette chimed, giving her elder a thumbs up.
"Is zare anything you would like us to do first?" Painter asked.
"Hm," Toughette thought for a moment as she scanned the room with her eyes. She stopped and pointed over at the other end of the cafeteria. "Yes, there are still dishes to be picked up over there. Painter, why don't you Vanity, and Jokey go collect them."
"Ok," Painter nodded as he began to walk over.
"Sure thing," Jokey said as he followed.
"If we must," Vanity sighed.
"I hate dishes," Grouchy grumbled.
Toughette and Sorcerette grinned at each other.
"So do we, Grouchy, so do we." Sorcerette giggled.
Soon each of the smurfs were doing a chore. Wild, Grouchy, Sassette and Snappy started whipping the tables off with a damp cloth. Lazy, supposedly, was to be sweeping the floor, but instead is leaning against his broom in the corner of the room. He let out a big yawn before Vanity poked him. Awake once again, Lazy continued to sweep along with Vanity mopping the swept area. Greedy and Smurfette helped Slouchy, Sorcerette and Toughette with the prepped food. Baby Smurf sat in a high chair and played with some silly puddy Nat found in one of the baskets beside the newspapers and magazines. Most likely it was accidently left there by one of the smurflings during breakfast or lunch. Clumsy helped clean the pots with Nat, while Painter, and Jokey washed the remaining dishes in the dishwasher since they both remembered when the future Hefty showed them how it worked before lunch.
"How does this look?" Smurfette asked as she finished chopping some yellow and red peppers.
Toughette leaned in to inspect Smurfette's work. "Perfect." She said. "Now go get one of the plastic containers over by the sink and we can put them in the fridge to fry up later."
As Smurfette grabbed the container off the counter, Clumsy quickly turned with a greasy pan and attempted to stop before he bumped into her. He nearly succeeded, but some of the grease splashed onto Smurfette's pretty pink dress.
"Oh Clumsy. Look what you did!" She whined.
"Gosh, I'm so sorry Smurfette." The klutzy smurf apologized.
Every smurf turned to see what the commotion was.
Toughette walked up to Smurfette to check the stain on her dress. The tough smurfette simply sighed, "Cest La Ve, Smurfette. Sorcerette and I can take you to get cleaned up and to find a different dress to wear."
"Yeah, no worries. We have plenty of dresses to choose from." Sorcerette chimed.
"Really?" Smurfette sniffed.
"Oh please, it seems we go shopping for new wardrobes every other month or so around here." Toughette chuckled. She then turned to Nat and Slouchy then asked. "You smurfs will be ok while we take Smurfette to get washed up, won't you?"
"Sure, go ahead Toughette." Nat waved them off.
OoOoOoOoOoOo
Handy walked down the corridor with his two young brothers, Hefty and Brainy. Neither of them knew where they were going or what they were looking for. All they knew is that they were in a strange world with smurfs they thought they knew, but act nothing like the ways of the Smurf Village back home.
"So, fellas." Handy spoke, breaking the focused silence. "Have any idea what we are looking for?"
"Not sure," Brainy pondered, "but it has to be something that could give a window into the past. Something that will answer our questions of what has caused our future selves to act strangely, and where are the others." He looked at each door he passed to see if one may say something that could give him a hint of what to find. However, he only sees numbers written on them.
Hefty is the first to turn the corner of the hallway. He stopped dead in his tracks as he read the sign above the entrance door.
"Uh, how about here?" He said, pointed to the sign.
Brainy and Handy catch up to Hefty and looked up. The sign read 'The Smurfs History Museum'. Brainy beamed a smile from one ear to the other.
"Perfect," he purred, clasping his hands and rubbing them in anticipation.
The smart smurf walked up to the entrance and nearly jumped out of his skin when the glass door automatically slid open on its own.
"Whoa, Brainy how did you do that?" Hefty gasped.
"Yeah, what kind of magic are you using?" Handy added.
"I'm not sure." Brainy admitted. He took a few steps back and the door closed.
The smurfs looked at each other with puzzled expressions. Brainy decided to walk forward again, and like before the door slid open.
"Huh," he wondered. Taking a chance he continued to walk till he was all the way inside the room. As soon as he was far enough away from the door, they closed.
"Brainy!" Hefty and Handy cried, thinking that their brother is now trapped.
The three brothers ran up to each other and again the door opened. They stop, not knowing what to think of this.
"M-maybe this place is haunted?" Hefty suggested the reason for the weirdness they are experiencing. Handy shrugged. Both smurfs walked in and turned when the doors closed again.
The three smurfs huddled together for a moment as they took in the entire room. It was filled with a bunch of old artifacts. Most of them were incased in glass boxes. From where they stood the room appeared huge and went on with stairs near the end that went up to the next level.
"I think we should split up and see what we can find." Brainy suggested. He then swallowed a lump down his throat. "B-b-but not too far. You know just in case this place is haunted."
"Good idea," Hefty and Handy both nodded in agreement.
The three smurfs went off in the direction they were facing.
Handy Smurf wondered past some familiar tools. He recognized them even though the wood mostly rotted away. He bent over to get a closer look at his old hammer. the last time he saw it, it was in a whole lot better condition. It puzzled him on how it could have ended up in this state of rotting. A glimmer of reflective light bouncing off glass caught his attention. Handy turned and is shocked to what he sees. He stepped closer to what was once a friend. Clockwork Smurf now stands surrounded in a protective glass case. Most of his blue paint had been peeled off and the wood appeared brittle.
"Oh, what did they do to you, old friend?" Handy whispered as his hand gazed over the smooth glass case.
Out in the hall, Brainette walked up to the entrance of the museum. She let out an exasperated sigh since this would be the one place the wondering smurfs would end up.
"I must talk to my beloved about keeping this door locked when we have guests." She said quietly to herself before walking in.
Hefty marveled over the artwork from Painter Smurf and sculptures from Craftette, whom he never heard of before. Both works for art are aged and parts of the sculptures are cracked slightly.
He walked over to more things that he recognized from the old village, and old things that he didn't. The thought accrued that the items he didn't recognized were from the Smurfette Village the future smurfs talked about before. Looking up, Hefty saw Brainy leaning over a piece of paper with writing on it. The paper was covered in a protective glass casing as well as most things in this room.
"Hey Brainy!" He shouted to his smart brother. "What did you find?"
Brainy didn't answer him. Instead he sniffled back, to be assumed, some tears as he rubbed at his eyes. This concerned Hefty enough to rush up to him and put his hand on the intelligent smurf's shoulder.
"Brainy, is everything alright?" Hefty asked worriedly.
"I, uh...uh..." Brainy stammered. He just couldn't find the words to say. Brainy just stared at the document in the case.
Hefty followed his line of vision and stepped up to read the words on the paper. The first thing he read was the title on top of the page, 'Tattlerette's Daily Report'. At first he wondered who that could be, but decided just to keep reading. After he read a few sentences, Hefty's eyes widened and his breathing quickened. He had a hard time believing in what he was reading.
"This can't be right." He gasped, shaking his head. "How could this be right? Brainy, do you think this is true?"
"I'm afraid it is." A female voice answered.
Brainy and Hefty turned franticly to face the Elder Brainette. She appeared sad, not because the smurfs found their way into the Smurf's History Museum, but of the memories of what had happened.
"I'm sorry you two found out this way." She continued in a calm manner. "Believe me, if we felt you smurfs would handle the truth we would have told you a long time ago. It was never our intention to lie, especially to Papa and the others."
"But we can stop this from happening now," Hefty stepped in. "I mean, Brainy and I read this letter, we can remember the date and stop this smurf-tastrophe before it happens! Can't we?" He asked more to Brainy then Elder Brainette.
Brainy nodded, agreeing with his stronger brother. "Yeah," he said, finding his voice.
Brainette bit her bottom lip. She defiantly knew something these young smurfs didn't, but kept quiet. With a deep breath she finally said something.
"It really isn't my place to tell you what to do." Brainette answered simply. "But the question will be, how do you think the others will react to this news. To find out that you two, as well as two smurfettes, and the smurflings survive, while everyone else in the Smurf Village parish?"
Hefty and Brainy stop to think about the question.
"S-she does have a point, Hefty." Brainy finally noted. "Maybe Papa Smurf would understand, but the others?"
Hefty paused before speaking, but as he opened his mouth to say something a voice called out them.
"Hey smurfs!" Handy cried out as he came around the corner. "You will not believe what I just found over here." He stopped in his tracks when he saw Brainette standing with his brothers. "Uh-oh, busted."
Brainette looked at Brainy and Hefty as the turned to her. Their silence assured her that they would not say any of their discovery to Handy, at least for now that is. She then turned her attention to Handy and said, "Come, I'll show you our performance hall."
OoOoOoOoOoOo
Meanwhile...
Toughette sat waiting on a bench in the smurfettes spa while Smurfette finished with her shower. She glanced over at Sorcerette that had just opened the closet where their spare outfits and shoes were stored. Smurfette walked out of the shower with a towel wrapped around her body and her hair pinned up with a clip. The punk smurfette pulled out a pretty white skirt with a pink top and matching white vest. With a sudden squeal of delight she turned around to the others. Smurfette nearly dropped her towel and Toughette woke up from her daydream.
"Oh, I just had a wonderful idea." She giggled.
"Really, what?" Smurfette asked with eager anticipation.
"Why don't all three of us dress up?" The punk asked.
"Excuse me?" Toughette coughed with a raised her eyebrows.
"Oh, come on Toughette." Sorcerette pleaded. She grabbed another set of clothes on a hanger from the closet and walked over to her older sister. "It will be so much fun, and you always looked smurfy in this outfit." The magical smurfette chimed - handing Toughette a tight stretchy pair of white slacks and a glittery pink V-top that the bottom hung like a skirt.
"Oh, please Toughette. I think you would look so smurfy in a dress." Smurfette begged.
Toughette smirked as she saw the hopeful expressions on both Sorcerette and Smurfette.
"Alright," she sighed. "If you both really insist."
"Eee, this is going to be so much fun!" Sorcerette squealed. She turned to Smurfette and said, "I think you will look abso-smurfly gorgeous with purple eye shadow and pink lipstick, Smurfette!" Sorcerette then turned to Toughette, "Sis, can I..."
"No," Toughette instantly cut her off. "I do my own hair and my own makeup. Got it?"
"Fine," Sorcerette regrettably surrendered before going to the closet to pick a smurfy outfit for her to wear. Once she found her favorite white and pink dress she grabbed it and pulled it up to her body. "Oooh, I'm going to wear this one!" She sang.
Smurfette giggled with excitement. How she always wanted to have a dress up party, but since she lived in a village with only smurfs and the only other smurfettes was a smurfling that rather play in the mud then have a dress up party, and the other, being Nana, was as old as Grandpa. Finding out the hard way, Smurfette did not have much in common with her either.
OoOoOoOoOoOo
The smurfettes leave the spa all refreshed and changed. Their hair is stylized and with glitter sprayed in their golden locks. Each smurfette painted their faces in a way that complemented their hair and outfits. They each walked with more confidence, but still unsure of where they were headed.
"You know, I feel a bit strange being all dressed up and not having to go out or doing anything." Toughette admitted.
"Hey I know. Let's take Smurfette to our performance hall." Sorcerette suggested.
"Ooh, what do you do in here?" Smurfette asked.
"It is we sing and dance. We have a stage set up where we can sing songs, and enough room on the floor so everysmurf can dance to the music." Toughette explained as they entered the room.
"Say, why don't we give a demonstration to Smurfette?" Sorcerette suggested, running up to the stage at the end.
"Uh, no." Toughette said flatly.
"Come on Toughette," The young punk smurfette purred. "Like you said, it's such a waist to get all dressed up and not do anything."
"Oh, yes I would love to see how all this works." Smurfette chimed in. She looked up and marveled at all the objects hanging off the ceiling. She took a step back when Sorcerette flipped the switch and the objects lit up with multi-colored lights. "Wow," she gasped.
"Alright fine, but I get to choose the song." Toughette said with wink.
As Sorcerette turned on all the sound equipment Toughette explained how the machine worked.
"So basically all you need to do, Smurfette, is to sing the words that appear on this monitor." She handed her a microphone and added, "You will sing into this and it will project your voice across the room."
"Oh, how smurfy," Smurfette giggled.
"Uh, yeah." Toughette rolled her eyes skyward as she picked up her microphone. She leaned over to a book at the end of the stage and pointed to one of the songs in the list. "This one, Sorcerette."
"Ok," Sorcerette nodded. "Ready smurfettes?" She asked as she delayed in pushing the 'play' button.
"Yes," Smurfette cheered.
"Hit it." Toughette lifted her thumb up in the air to let her young sister know she is ready as well.
As soon as the music played, Toughette stepped up to the microphone and sang,
"You don't own me
I'm not just one of your little toys."
Sorcerette picked up her microphone and brought it to her mouth to sing,
"You don't own me
Don't say I can't go with other boys"
" Bababababababaaaaa " Both smurfettes sang. They both guided their hands up to Smurfette to encourage her to sing the next set of lines.
Smurfette paused for a moment, but followed the example of the other smurfettes. She watched the monitor and sang the next lines.
"And don't tell me what to do,
And don't tell me what to say,
And when I go out with you,
Don't put me on display."
"Pretty good," Sorcerette applauded.
"I'm impressed," Toughette nodded approvingly.
The three blond smurfettes followed the monitor and sang the next chorus in unison.
"You don't own me,
Don't try to change me in anyway,
You don't own me,
Don't tie me down, cos I'll never stay."
Each of the smurfettes spun and swung their hips to the music as the song continued. Toughette stepped forward.
"I don't tell you what to say." Toughette sung with passion.
"I don't tell you what to do," Sorcerette sang with her finger shaking in the air.
"So just let me be myself," Smurfette pointing to herself as she sang into her mic.
"That's all I ask of you." The three smurfettes sang in unison.
"I'm young," Toughette sang.
" And I love to be young," Sorcerette and Smurfette echoed.
"I'm free," Sorcerette sang as she began to snap her fingers to the beat.
" And I love to be free," Toughette and Smurfette echoed.
All three smurfettes turned to the monitor and read the next few lines and sang,
"To live my life the way that I want,
To say and do whatever I please."
"No, No" Toughette shook her head.
"You Don't Own Me," Sorcerette and Smurfette waved their fingers in the air.
"No, No" Toughette repeated.
"You Don't Own Me," Sorcerette and Smurfette again waved their fingers in the air.
"No, No" Toughette shook her head one last time.
"You Don't Own Me," Sorcerette and Smurfette spun in one spot.
"Young and Free. You Don't Own Me," the three smurfettes repeated six times as the music faded to end the song.
Without realizing they had an audience the smurfettes heard clapping at the entrance of the door. Blushing Toughette, Sorcerette, and Smurfette looked over to see whom were all clapping.
Brainette, and Smurfette's fellow time-travelers, Hefty, Brainy, and Handy stood by the door.
"Wow, you guys are good at that." The young Hefty applauded.
With redder cheeks, Toughette placed the microphone back in its cradle on the stand. She leapt off the stage and muttered, "I'm not that good."
Sorcerette quickly turned off the stage lights and karaoke machine then she and Smurfette follow Toughette off the stage and all three walk out passed Brainette and the three young smurfs. Hefty, Brainy, and Handy couldn't help but to stare in awe how each of the smurfettes dressed. Toughette smirked at their expressions.
"What's the matter, smurfs? Haven't you seen three smurfettes dressed up before?" She chuckled amusingly.
"Yeah," Sorcerette and Smurfette both replied with a giggle.
"Hey, where did you leave our other guests?" Brainette asked.
"In the kitchen with Nat and Slouchy." Sorcerette answered.
"Oh," the smurfette Elder hummed. She then looked back at the other smurfettes, puzzled. "What a minute, where are you three going?"
"I don't know," Smurfette shrugged.
"Yeah, the afternoon is still young and we are just three young smurfettes out to have a good time." Sorcerette said as she threw her arm around Smurfette and winked at the smurfs. Smurfette giggled as she and Sorcerette turned and caught up to Toughette.
"Whoa," all three smurfs gasped. They could not seem to stop looking at the three blonds walking off down the hall.
"Well, now that you've seen the Performance Hall," Brainette sighed as she rolled her eyes skyward. "I think it's time we go check on the smurflings. When she realized the smurfs were not paying attention to what she said, the intelligent smurfette elder raised her hand up in front of their faces and snapped her fingers twice.
"What?" Brainy blinked.
"Huh?" Hefty and Handy both turned their attention to Brainette.
"Come along smurfs. This way." Brainette chuckled under her breath as she led the smurfs down a different hall.

Interesting question and one that is often asked when writing a time traveling story. Since time as we know it moves in a linear fashion, to travel backwards is to go against the order thus creating a paradox effect.
If someone from the future travels to the past, generally they should never interact with the past. It's a rule. However, there are many scenarios where the rules are broken and the effects can be devastating but make for a great story.
Example:
Back to the Future - Marty Mc Fly interacts with his mom, the result is he won't get born.
Christmas Carol - Scrooge is told that the images he sees are shadows of the past, however they are so real to him that they evoke not only a change in his person but also how he acts from the moment forward after he sees what his future holds for him.
Dr. Who - Every single incident effects the future, some for better others for worse.
I'm sure you can think of others.
The question is, the future that could happen, is not necessarily the one that will happen if one changes the past even by being in it. For example, my character Kate has a relative who is a Knight for William the Conquerer. If she travels back to 1066 and interacts with this distant relative, who is to say that such a connection will not affect her being born 500 years later? If anything, it might create a paradox as in a parallel timeline which is running alongside the one she is in.
The result a complicated mess or web of timey wimey mushy stuff, but one heck of a great story!

Chapter 14 - Papa and Smurf
The smurfs drove along a road in a tunnel specially built above the city sewers and still well below the city streets above. This was a particularly safe route to take in and out of the city.
Papa Smurf watched the lights flying by as they drove through the tunnel. He estimated that they were driving pretty fast, faster than any machine he was used to - at least not on the ground. Up ahead he could see Grandpa's beard waving behind him in the intense breeze generated by their speed. My how things change from what I remember. He thought.
"Say, Papa Smurf," Sorcerer squawked through the head set inside their helmets. This sudden chatter made the red-capped elder jump slightly.
"Uh, yes?" Papa Smurf answered uneasily.
"We are a half hour ahead of schedule, so how would you and Grandpa like to enjoy a bit of a scenic route before we meet up with the professor?" The young magical smurf asked.
"My that sounds like a smurf-doodle of an adventure." Grandpa chimed with excitement as he waved his cane in the air.
Hefty, a bit stunned, first looked at Grandpa then shifted gears to slow down and looked back at Sorcerer and Papa Smurf.
"Where do you plan on showing our guests?" The strong smurf asked with a slight irritated tone.
"Nowhere that will endanger us around humans. I swear." Sorcerer pleaded. "I was thinking of showing them some of the parks in the city."
Once again Hefty turned to Grandpa and saw the look he always had when an adventure was presented and he was not about to let it pass up. With a sigh, he slowed down even more to let Sorcerer pursue forward and lead them onward.
"Ok, fine. But let's not be too long. Understand?" He warned his young brother.
"Yes!" Sorcerer cheered in victory.
Sorcerer led a different route along the right exit of the tunnel.
OoOoOoOoOoOo
A Gnome stood at the window looking out at the market below. He stared at the people walking below as if he was expecting someone to suddenly appear. A disappointed sigh escaped from his lips, he than peered down at his watch. 2:12pm it read.
The Gnome reached up to scratch under his peaked red cap. He pondered on what would be taking his guests so long. Turning away from the window, professor Geork walked up to his desk and lifted the cup of coffee he left sitting there. After taking a few sips, he placed the mug back down on the desk. He checked a list of things to do in his schedule book. He breathed another, more exasperated sigh at the list of items he still needed to do, yet, he made a promise to Father Time that the ruby key he found should return to the rightful owners. The professor began to stroke his long gray beard as he pondered how long it would take before the smurfs would arrive.
Professor Geork glanced down at his digital watch one more time. The time showed was 2:13pm. He is now certain his Two O'clock meeting with the smurfs is running late. With a worried glance he peered back out his office window, the professor wondered if they got into an accident, or perhaps they got lost. The more he thought about it the more paranoid he got. A buzz from the intercom on his desk caught his immediate attention.
"Professor, your Two O'clock is here." A female with a nasally voice said.
'Oh, thank goodness,' the professor though with a sigh of relief. He walked over to his desk and pushed the button on his intercom. "Send them in, Lilli May."
The door opens and Hefty Smurf is the first to walk through.
"My apologies for being late," he said before glaring over his shoulder at Sorcerer. "But Someone under estimated how long the detour route to your office would take."
"Hey, I didn't know the traffic was going to be bad." Sorcerer Smurf shrugged.
"Well that doesn't matter now." The professor smiled. He walked up shook both Hefty and Sorcerer's hand. "The important thing is you are here now and I finally get to meet the infamous Papa Smurf and Grandpa Smurf." He added as he reached his hand out to the Elder smurfs.
"It is an honor to meet you too, Professor Geork." Papa Smurf chimed.
"Please, the honor is all mine." The old and wise gnome bowed forward.
Grandpa Smurf looked around the room. He admired some of the images on the wall of the professor standing over some of his archaeological finds. It took the smurf elder to realize he was not glancing up at paintings, but real life photos. He remembered Elder Brainy, and the others explaining the technology to him back at the Smurf Community. As Grandpa continued to walk down the room, looking up at the pictures, he started to imagine that this Gnome led an exciting life of discovery. A smile beamed through his rugged white beard as he lifted his cane to point at one of the pictures.
"I recognize this landscape," he chimed. "This was somewhere in northern Africa, right?"
"That is correct, Grandpa Smurf." The Gnome nodded. "I believe that is where I had discovered some fossil remains of the mythical African Dragon."
"Fascinating," Papa Smurf stepped up to get a closer look.
"Anyway, enough small talk," the professor waved his hand in the air. "I'll take you to the artifact you are all here to see."
"Yes please," Papa Smurf nodded.
The smurfs followed the professor to the next room where the professor displayed his latest finds on shelves. In the middle of the room sat a long rectangle table. Lying on the table are some architecture equipment, and something red that is mostly still covered in lava rock. The key sat on a medium size Petri dish near some string, stakes, small shovels, and some small plastic Ziploc bags filled with soil samples.
Grandpa Smurf pulled out one of the time crystals out from his pouch, and held it gingerly over the ruby key. Almost instantly there was a reaction. Both the key and the crystal started to glow, and slowly the key itself started to levitated towards the crystal.
"I do believe this is the right key." Grandpa said with a grin.
"Excellent, I am so glad." The Gnome clapped. "Let me grab the special casing for it, and you can take it back to the Smurf Community with you."
"Thank you so much, professor." Papa Smurf happily shook his hand.
Hefty and Sorcerer Smurf glanced at each other, and smiled.
"Say, now that we got this bit of business out of the way, why don't we take Papa and Grandpa Smurf for a brief tour though the Fairy Market?" Sorcerer suggested.
"I believe they are expecting us back in the community soon." Hefty grumbled.
"Come on." Sorcerer pleaded. "This could be the only chance I get to spend time with Papa Smurf." He leaned closer to the strong smurf and whispered.
Hefty thought about it for a moment. He realized that Sorcerer was only a baby when the Old Village was destroyed. Indeed, there might not be another chance for Sorcerer Smurf to bond with the old smurf Elder of his day.
"Fine." The strong smurf sighed. "I'll call Brainy to let them know we will be late."
OoOoOoOoOoOo
After checking out a few stores and street performers, the smurfs decided to sit down for a bit of a snack and something to drink. Sorcerer sipped his soda through a straw. He glanced over to Papa Smurf sitting across of him. The red-capped elder picked up his cup of tea. As he sipped at the tea, Papa looked around the scenery around him. He raised an eyebrow at all the flashing lights around some of the ads.
"So, what do you think of the future, Papa Smurf?" Sorcerer Smurf asked.
"It is, um, colorful." Papa Smurf answered. He could not stop eyeing the bright lights on the ad bulletin boards above one building in particular.
Sorcerer chuckled at Papa's comment. He stopped once he thought of what was yet to come for his former mentor elder of the Old Village.
Papa Smurf noticed the sudden change in the young smurf's face. He leaned towards him. "Is something the matter, my little smurf?" He spoke with a soft fatherly voice.
Unaware of the fact he had been looking so distraught in his thoughts, Sorcerer looked up at Papa Smurf. "Oh, Papa, I wish you could stay here with us in the future." He said.
"I see," hummed the elder smurf. "You know as much as I do that cannot be possible."
Sorcerer rubbed his eyes as he felt they were becoming watery enough for tears to spill out. He took in a deep breath. "I know, it's just..."
Papa cocked his head to one side, and raised an eyebrow. "It's just what?" He asked.
"It's just that," Sorcerer bit his lower lip as he tried to find the right words to say. "I don't want anything to happen to you, and the other smurfs that's all."
The young magical smurf paused as he turned his head to watch Hefty standing with Grandpa Smurf at the chocolate store across the street. It appeared that Hefty was purchasing some chocolates for Toughette. Soon they will be returning back to the table where he and Papa Smurf still sat.
"I appreciate your concern, Sorcerer, but I'm sure me and the other smurfs of the village will be fine." Papa Smurf said confidently.
Sorcerer felt a lump form in his throat. He doesn't know the kind of deadly dangers await him and the Old Village. The magical smurf shook his head and was about to tell his elder the awful truth, but the words froze in his mouth.
"You don't get it," he finally said. "You are destined for great danger."
"Ah," Papa nodded, pondering with what the young smurf said. "I feel our destiny is like a river, Sorcerer. You cannot change it, and if you do there will be consequences." Papa pointed out. "In other words, let us figure out how to handle whatever comes for us on our own."
"But Papa Smurf," Sorcerer whined. "You might not...I mean --" He stopped in midsentence when Papa Smurf lied a hand on his shoulder.
"No matter what happens in my future, my little smurf, I'm glad we had this moment." Papa Smurf said wisely.
Sorcerer looked up at his once respected elder of the old days. There was defiantly great wisdom in the elder's eyes. The young magical smurf could only wish he could be that wise someday. He let out a small sigh, "Me too, I just wish I could be there to protect you and the other smurfs of the Old Village." he said.
"I know," Papa nodded. "But I can see you are mostly needed here in the future, my little smurf."
Once again, Sorcerer felt numb in his throat. Could the elder mean the smurflings. Perhaps secretly Papa Smurf knows what might happen to him and the other smurfs in their future? Whatever the reason, Papa Smurf eyes showed a lot of pride for the young, and future leader of the Smurfs. Sorcerer managed a forced half smile to his elder. "Thanks." He said.
"Are you guys ready to head back now?" Hefty asked as he and Grandpa walked up to the table.
Papa and Sorcerer looked at each other, then back at Hefty and Grandpa. "Yeah, I think we're ready." Sorcerer sighed.

Aww Sorcerer is so sweet and lovable :-) I'm with him about taking it slow and enjoying the scenery, although for different reasons. I like to put in my headset and listen to music the whole ride, and hate it when it has to end :-D
