~Wakko's POV~

(A few days later...)

As I was waking up due to the sun rising, I saw something that caught my eyes. I looked out of the car window and saw a small village. "Oh wow! Hey guys! Wake up! Village ahead! Village ahead!"

"I'm up!" Yakko said as he had out his mallet. Then he looked at where I was looking. "Whoa."

"That looks like a safe place to be for now." Carrie nodded her head as she held Rakko.

"I agree. And we still need to do a check on our next future baby in the making." Rachel looked at the back seat where Aqua was sleeping, looking more bigger than the past few days.

"You're right Rach. I hope my baby's okay." I said as I bent down to Aqua's belly and rubbed it. "Please be okay. Please be okay." I prayed to it. As we arrived in the village, we were greeted by a lot of the lovely villagers that were living and thriving together.

"Ooh look. New people!" the shoe cobbler said. And the people gathered around us.

"Is there a doctor in the house?" Yakko asked.

"Yes there is. The doctor is right there." one of the villagers said as she pointed to a small office hut.

"Thank you." I said as I went back into the car to pick up my heavily pregnant girlfriend.

As a few mere minutes passed by, I was praying nonstop hoping that Aqua and my unborn child were okay. As I was about ready to eat my fingers, the doctor came out. I stood up and went to him. "Doctor! Is she okay?! Is my future baby okay?!"

"Calm down sir. Your wife and future daughter are fine." he told me.

I gasped and realized that the doctor said we were having a girl. "A girl?! I'm having a baby girl! Yeah!" I jumped all over the place and hugged my friend. "I'm having a girl!"

Carrie laughed as she hugged me. "Congratulations!"

"I have a niece! Yeah!" Dot danced with Yakko and they were both very excited.

As we settled into the village, we happened to have caught onto the story. We discovered that the villagers had a new king known as King Salazar the Pushy. He was treating them very poorly with not even a haypenny. He raised the taxes to the people by 2 haypennies and there wasn't enough food or water to help them survive the winter. I felt really sorry for them because there was a really mean king that was just hungry for greed and gold.

(Later on...)

As I was walking through the village with my siblings and Rachel, we head trotting over the cobblestone road. We turned our heads to see a very fancy carriage arriving to the town square. "Whoa. Nice carriage." I said.

"Come on guys. Let's go see what's going on." Rachel said as she went over to the square.

My sibs and I followed her to see what the commotion was on about. As we witnessed the door opening from the coach and a red carpet rolled out of there.

"Hmph, who does he think he is?" I puffed.

"A loon." Yakko answered.

As we saw the figure coming out of the carriage, we saw a tall man wearing red, yellow, and blue garments. He was covered with a long velvet fur cloak with a gold crown over his long brown hair. I didn't seem to like him very much because of what the villagers have spoken about him. As he walked passed us, he gave us a look.

"Hmm... who are you?" the pushy king asked.

"We're the Warner brothers." Yakko and I told him.

"And the Warner sister!" Dot chimed in.

The king gasped. "Aha! So it is you!"

"What do you mean?" I asked him.

The king started to get mad. "Silence! Who told you about this place?!"

"The author actually thought about it." Yakko said as he pointed to the distance. "She's a great idealist."

(Author-Chan: Aww Yakko! Thank you so much! I feel so special! 😊)

The king looked at our 'author' then he looked back and grabbed his hand. "So Thaddeus has decided to release you huh? Well he's gonna think twice before I deal with him!"

"Ow! Hey watch it!" Yakko said.

Rachel growled and clawed his hand away from Yakko. "Don't you dare touch my fiancé!"

Salazar laughed. "So you decided to think that you can find royalty over here?! Well you better think again!"

I looked around to see the villagers gathering around to overhear him. I chuckled. "You better keep it down pal."

"I agree." Dot giggled.

"You all keep it down! Can't believe you came back here after the great fire!" he boomed.

"Great fire?" I thought about it and gasped. "Yakko, I think he means the fire that killed our parents!"

"What?!" Yakko gasped.

"And to think that I should've killed you all off after what I did to your parents!" he yelled it out.

Carrie was shocked and pretty soon the villagers were shocked as well.

"Y-You killed our parents?!" I gritted my teeth. "But why would you do this?!"

"Ha! As if I can't have 2 places to call my own. I did it to get more land and more money to myself! And I dumped you 3 royal pains in that orphanage wishing that I should've let you live! I should've killed you that very day!"

We all gasped and the crowd gasped with us.

"Oh umm... I mean... hehe... it was nothing..." he hesitated.

I heard murmurs from the villagers and they turned to their so called king. "So you did this!" one of them said.

"So you can be rich and not care about us?!" another said.

"And sent the royal family away?! You monster! Get him!" the male villager said as he charged for the evil king and the others followed.

"You'll pay for this!" the king shouted out as he was chased away by the villagers.

"And that's that! We won!" I cheered.

"Hooray!" we all cheered.

As we danced and celebrated the defeat of the evil king, a nurse rushed over to the town square. "Wakko Warner?! I need to see Wakko Warner!"

As I heard the nurse call my name, I ran over to her. "I'm Wakko Warner. Can I help you?"

"It's your girlfriend, it's time!"

"Time? Time for what?" I said as I took out my grandfather clock to look at the time. "It's 3:26 p.m. ma'am." I told her as I put it away.

"What was that word again? Pineapples!"

"Pineapples? Is she craving something?" I grew confused.

"No no no... Pomegranates? Grapfruits? Nectarines?" the nurse asked herself.

"She's ordering fruit cocktail." Carrie giggled.

"Come on think... Oh! Peaches!"

"Peaches?" I thought about it and gasps as I knew what it was time for. "PEACHES! MY BABY'S COMING NOW?!"

"Yes! Now hurry!" the nurse rushed to the hut.

"Guys! Peaches! Peaches!" I told them.

Rachel gasped. "My niece is coming! Let's get back to the clinic ASAP guys!" Rachel said as she unfurled her wings. "Grab on Aqua needs you!" she held her hands out to me.

I grabbed her hands and held on as she flew straight for the clinic. "Hang on my babies! Daddy's coming!!" I held on and hopes that both of my loves are alright.
