[Mayor Adam West]

That afternoon, Jenifer was out, leaving Flora at home all alone, or so that’s what she thought.
Flora had begun to have a wander around, trying to find something to do rather than being completely bored, although, she did stop as she heard the sound of what sounded like the sharpening of a knife, which sounded like it was coming from the kitchen.
Regardless, Flora decided to go and see what it was and to her surprise, she saw Berry holding a knife “Berry? Wh-wh-what are you doing here?” Flora asked sounding a little freaked out.
“I should be asking you the same thing” replied Berry as she looked at Flora, still holding the knife.
“Well, um you see, you’re not suppose to be here anymore…” Flora begun before Berry interrupted her.
“I don’t belong here? You, you’re the one that doesn’t belong here, Jenifer, like I’ve said so many times, is far too nice to tell you that she doesn’t want you anymore and that you should just leave”
“And…how do I know you’re not lying?”
“Well, considering the fact that I was the first one she imagined…”
“But that was by accident”
Berry twitched just then “Don’t remind me” she grumbled back to Flora.
“So then, wouldn’t that count as you not being here?”
Berry glared right back at Flora “No, no it wouldn’t, as she too accidentally created you”
“Well, yeah, but not really, I mean, she was thinking of me…perhaps from a dream or something she had…”
Berry didn’t like the sound of it so far and either way, she was determined to get Flora out of the picture, no matter what “Hmm, Flora, you mind following me, I do have something to show you” she grinned to herself.
Flora sighed “Well, okay I guess…I mean, if it’s something interesting”
“Oh, don’t worry, it is interesting, I can guarantee you that” Berry then walked out, followed by Flora.

Berry had left the house and had taken Flora to a cemetery “So um Berry, what did you say you were going to show me?” gulped Flora.
“Oh, it was something I was going to give you as an early present” Berry showed Flora the crypt “It’s in there”
“I don’t know about that”
Berry gave an annoyed sigh “Just go in there, otherwise, you won’t get anything”
Flora stood there for a second before replying “Well, alright” she then begun to walk down to the crypt, having a glance in “Um, I don’t see anything”
“Oh, you don’t? Let me help you” she grinned as Flora was still looking in.
Before Flora could do anything, Berry had bushed her into the crypt and locked the door, dangling the key out of Flora’s reach.
“You lied” Flora said to Berry.
“Not really, I didn’t say that it was going to be a good thing” Berry chuckled back before turning and walking off to a hole she had dug earlier, dropping the key in and covering the hole back up “And that takes care of that”
Flora was in fact, looking a bit upset as Berry left her all alone in the crypt, and knowing that no one else was around in the cemetery, there was no point in calling out for help either.
Berry on the other hand, had headed back to Jenifer’s place, seeming pretty pleased with herself, only to be greeted by an annoyed Jenifer “So Berry, where’s Flora huh?”
“Flora? Oh, she um, she left to go for a walk or something, she didn’t say what she was actually doing” replied Berry, with an attempt on lying.
“Oh really? If that’s the case, why are you hands dirty?” Jenifer asked back.
“Oh that, um you see, I was doing um…stuff…” she said with a nervous chuckle.
“Where’s Flora?” Jenifer was now sounding unpleased with Berry’s lies.
“But you don’t need her anymore, you have me, I’m here, your friend” Berry said, trying to put off the subject of Flora.
Jenifer gave an annoyed sigh back “Berry”
Berry of course, didn’t want to give away the location of Flora, so instead, she had to say something to cover it up “Um, yeah, that’s a real funny story you see…” although, she did begin to step back and without continuing on, she took off.
Jenifer, now, was already looking rather worried about Flora, so, knowing that Berry wasn’t going to tell, she instead, headed over to Foster’s to explain to Madame Foster.

“Oh dear me, and you’re saying that you don’t know where Flora is?” asked Madame Foster.
“Afraid not, Berry wouldn’t spill the beans” replied Jenifer.
“That Berry is a menace” added in Mr. Herrimen.
“Which is why we must find Flora, who knows how long she’s been missing for now” Madame Foster told them.
“But where do we start?” Jenifer asked.

***

Madame Foster had gotten together a few friends to help out, namely Bloo, Eduardo, Coco, Wilt and Jackie Khones, as well as Mac “Okay gang, here’s the deal, an imaginary friend has gone missing and it’s up to us to help find her” Madame Foster spoke up.
“Boring” complained Bloo in his usual tone.
“Alright, Bloo and Mac will be one team, Eduardo and Wilt will be another, Coco, you and Jenifer will be the third team while Jackie and I will be the fourth team” Madame Foster continued, despite Bloo.
“Boring” Bloo continued “When did things get so boring?”
“Bloo, we’re trying to help out a friend in need” Mac told Bloo.
“Yeah, um Mac, I don’t go for the whole “helping” thing, it’s too much work” Bloo continued to complain.
Mac just groaned as the groups then split off to go and search for Flora.

It was Mac and Bloo who were searching the cemetery “Tell me again why we’re here” Bloo complained.
“Remember, we’re looking for Flora” replied Mac.
“Flora? Who’s that?” Bloo asked back, sounding confused.
“You know Flora, the short, plant girl” replied Mac.
Bloo though, was looking completely lost on the matter until it seemed to come to him “Oh, you mean Sarah?”
“What?’ Mac asked confused at first “Nevermind, let’s just find her alright?”
The two begun searching the cemetery, where Flora, who was just sitting down in the crypt, heard the footsteps and quickly, headed to the gate and looked out, and saw Mac and Bloo “Hey! Over here!” she called out to them.
Mac glanced over and noticed Flora before rushing over “Flora, what happened?” he asked straight away.
“It was Berry, she locked me in here and got rid of the key, I think in the cemetery somewhere” replied Flora.
“Berry? Oh, you mean Heather?” added in Bloo “Good girl”
“Bloo, didn’t you hear a word that Flora just said? Berry’s bad news and we’ve got to go find that key” replied Mac.
“Boring! When is the boringness going to stop?” Bloo complained.
“There might be buried treasure” Mac told Bloo, trying to convince him to help.
“Really!?” Bloo was now sounding interested.
“Yeah, it could be around here anywhere though”
“Well, what are we waiting for!?” Bloo had then gone and received some shovels in double time “Let’s start digging”
Bloo was the first to start digging with Mac right behind him, digging up the whole cemetery in search of the key.
Flora though, had no choice but to wait around until they had found the key, but so far, it didn’t look like as though they were going to find it anytime soon.
“A key!?” Bloo complained as soon as he had found it “Man, there was no buried treasure anywhere”
“Bloo” Mac sounded a little annoyed as usual at Bloo “Just hand the key over”
“Fine” Bloo did so as Mac unlocked the door to the crypt to let Flora out.
“Um, thanks you guys” Flora said to them, still not sounding too happy “But um…where’s Berry now?”
“We don’t know at the moment, but let’s get you back to the mansion first” replied Mac.
“Boring” Bloo still complained.
“Um, what’s wrong with him?” Flora asked Mac.
“He just thinks that the day’s just been boring so far” replied Mac as they headed back to the mansion.

Mr. Herrimen had greeted them “Ah, I see you’ve found Miss. Flora, where was she?”
“Berry had locked her in a crypt in the cemetery” replied Mac.
Madame Foster and the others had returned at that point “Sorry Mr. Herrimen, we couldn’t…” although, Frankie stopped as soon as she saw Flora “Nevermind”
Jenifer saw Flora and ran over, giving her a hug.
“So, where’s Berry now?” Frankie asked.
“I don’t know actually” replied Jenifer.
Although, their talking was silenced by a growl of sorts “Oh dear” Madame Foster was the first to speak after a pause or so.
“What is it?” asked Jenifer.
“The Extreme-O-Saurus, it’s been released by the sounds of it” replied Madame Foster.
Flora only gave a gulp “Berry” muttered Jenifer.
While the others had headed outside to go and try to tame the Extreme-O-Saurus, Jenifer walked over to a nearby phone in the lobby, picking it up and dialling a number.
Moments later, she hung up the phone and took Flora upstairs to the theatre and entered. In a way, she did lie to the others about where Berry really was, but she wasn’t entirely sure either.

Once in the theatre, she looked around with Flora and managed to spot Berry up on the stage “Berry, you’re taking things too far, which is why, I have to now admit, I no longer want to you at all, I would rather have Flora than you”
“Yes, I kinda figured that out from the start” Berry said with a roll of her eyes.
“Then why do you want to get rid of Flora to have me all for yourself? Isn’t that a bit selfish of you?”
“Why? I’ll tell you why, she doesn’t deserve you, no one else but I do, but why can’t you see that!? I’m suppose to be the cutest one out of me and Flora, not Flora!” Berry yelled back.
“But attempting to try and win me over by taking her out of the picture isn’t going to do anything, not change my mind or anything, you’ve just got to accept that Berry” Jenifer carried on.
Berry, at this point, was looking rather annoyed “No! No! No!” she continued to yell.
“I thought so, which is why you had given me no choice but to call the police, who should be here soon”
“You what!?” Berry quickly yelled back.
“Locking up Flora in the crypt wasn’t very good and I did hear what you’ve also tried to do to Mac too, trying to get rid of him too” Jenifer continued.
And at that point, the police entered the theatre and quickly cornered Berry, at least three or so of them anyway, while some other policemen were helping out in the backyard.
“No! You can’t do this to me! I’m suppose to be the sweetest friend ever! Not some stupid flower like friend! Me! No one else!” Berry continued to yell as she was immediately taken away by the police.

Once Berry was taken away, Jenifer turned to Flora and gave her a smile.
“So, did you mean all that stuff?” asked Flora.
“Well, of course I did, I mean, you are probably the best imaginary friend one could ever hope for, but um, well, you see, that’s also the thing, I actually can’t keep you anymore” Jenifer told her.
“Why not?” asked Flora, now sounding a little sad.
“Well, you see, I’ve had you for a while now, but I’m actually a teenager, and I can’t actually keep you anymore, it’s hard to explain really…I’m sorry”
There was a small pause “Yeah, I guess you are right” replied Flora.
“Yeah, that a girl, come on” Jenifer then took Flora back downstairs where the others had managed to get the Extreme-O-Saurus back into its cage.
“Um, Frankie, I need a favour from you” Jenifer asked Frankie.
“Sure, what is it?” Frankie asked back.
Jenifer whispered into Frankie’s ear “Sure, I can help out with that”

Soon enough though, the paperwork was done and Flora was now an official resident of the house “Thanks you guys” Jenifer told them.
“Hey, it’s no problem, it’s what we do here” replied Frankie.
Jenifer then turned back to Flora “So, enjoy your time here Flora, I probably will visit now and then”
“Yeah I should be enjoying my time here, it looks rather fun” replied Flora with a smile.
“That’s good to hear…well, see ya” Jenifer gave Flora one last hug before she had ended up leaving.
Flora turned to the others and gave a bit of a smile “So, um, where am I going to be staying?” she asked curiously.

The End
