The Cloud Castle

ONE LAST SURPRISE

We were silent on the ride back to the SEVEN ROSES UNIT. Each of us was thinking about the EXTRAORDINARY adventure we ad just experienced.
   After the helicopter landed, Will turned to us.
   "Once again, we have succeeded in returning PEACE to one of the FANTASY WORLDS," he said. "Thanks to all of you."
   "It was a demanding mission, but we are always happy to help," I said.
   "I could not have completed this MISSION without every one of you," Will said. "I'm sure the Seven Roses Unit will call on you again soon."
   We said good-bye to Will and boarded the copter again for our return to Mouseford Academy. When we finally arrived, we were HAPPY and excited, but also very TIRED.
   I headed to my office to begin jotting down notes about the journey so I wouldn't  forget. A few hours later, Colette and Pam KNOCKED on my door.
   "Thea , could you please come to our room for a moment?" Colette asked. "We'd like to show you something."
   "Sure," I said, feeling CURIOUS. "What's this about?"

"We can't tell you. It's a SURPRISE," Pam replied.
   When I got to Colette and Pam's room, the surprise hit me with a Blast Of Color.
   The Thea Sisters had used the Pixies Colors to paint clouds all over the walls! I knew that those beautiful colors would always remind us of our journey through the Land Of Clouds.
   "This adventure was so amazing," said Paulina. "I can't even imagine what our next one will be."
   Nicky smiled. "Well, I know that whatever happens..... 

OUR FRIENDSHIP WILL LEAD US TO SUCCEED!"
