Lisa hid with Barry in the alley, so neither Sherry jubilee nor Clown-a- round could spot them. Then Barry, the blue gummy bear, had to escort her inside the building in order to hide.

"This is my hideout, I know it's not much but it's rather cozy" he explained.

"I understand that the circle of ten is after me, but why is the king need me so badly?" She asked.

"I don't know, but the king wasn't always like this. He was originally a kind Prince who journeyed with someone he cared about, until that someone had abandoned him when he needed them the most. In grief over the betrayal, he tore out his heart and buried it somewhere in the lands, and eventually, he turned evil" he explained.

Suddenly, they heard two voices calling outside.

"Lisa! We know you're around here, so why don't you surrender yourself to us! We won't hurt you, we promise!"   Sherry jubilee called out.

"Yeah! We'll give you your mom back if you would turn yourself in, so no one can get hurt!" Clown-a- round called out.

Lisa wanted to say something, but Barry covered her mouth to keep her from blowing cover. Both waited until coast is clear, in which the two members of the circle of ten had left.

"We can't keep hiding forever, we have to do something to get rid of them!" Said Lisa.

"What else can we do? They have every guard within this region, not to mention they'll use every manipulation to deceive you. Here's what I do know in killing Sherry jubilee: water, she hates water since her body is actually made of sugar. If we could splash some water on her, she'll dissolve into sugary slush" explained Barry.

"I noticed that Clown-a- round is much a coward when he faced my friend, he just ran back to the castle when my friend defeated most of the toy soldiers. Although, if we splash water at Sherry jubilee, she'll melt like the wicked witch of the west" she remarked.

"Don't know who that is, but it's worth a try" he said.

Meanwhile

In the outskirts of the dessert region, Frederick and Yukio were walking down the road (made of Graham crackers).

"She should be within the town here, but are we going t-to the right direction?" Questioned Frederick.

"I don't know, I haven't been to this region. After all, we should-" Yukio tried to reply.

*splat!*

Yukio looked down, and saw that he stepped on a whipped cream.

"I think I stepped on a whipped cream" he said in a disgusted tone.

Frederick sighed while pinching his nose, and shaking his head.

"Fine, I'll clean your foot. Just watch where you're stepping with bare feet next time" said Frederick.

Back in town

Lisa and Barry exit the hideout, looking around to see if Sherry jubilee and Clown-a- round is around. Lisa picked up a bucket filled with water, in case if the governess of the dessert region ever do a surprise attack. The two walked out of the alley, only to find that a group of candy themed soldiers were expecting them. Then they hear laughter as the two soldiers parted, showing Sherry and Clown-a- round laughing while riding on a bath tub with legs.

"We knew you were in the hideout all along, so we just wait until you two left your only safe haven!" Laughed Sherry jubilee.

"Give up now, girl! Or we will use force if needed to, we don't care if you kick and scream, we will drag you into the castle!" Said Clown-a- round with a sadistic giggle.
