Happy Birthday, Cupcake!

Back at the cottage, Olivia was humming and lighting all eighteen candles on the cake, which was too tall, very crooked, and, of course, runny. She carefully lit each candle by breathing a puff of fire on them. "There! Whoop!" she said, quite satisfied, after she blew out the fire. Then she noticed the cake was starting to run and held it up with a broom. She turned to Tanya and asked, "Well, what do you think of it?"

Tanya was also almost finished with the dress. But the dress was a bad joke - there were too many bows, some parts of the dress were way too big, and some were torn. And Gadget was still standing as the dummy in the dress, not seeming too happy. Tanya was startled when she saw the sight of the birthday cake. "Why, it's a very unusual cake, isn't it?" she said.

Olivia then noticed a few candles were starting to flow down the broomstick. "Yes. Of course it'll be much stiffer after it's baked." she said, placing the candles back on top of the cake.

"Of course, dear. What do you think of the dress?" Tanya asked nervously.

"Well, it's not exactly the way it is in the book, is it?" asked Olivia, as she had a good look at it, standing beside Tanya.

"Well, I improved it a bit! But perhaps if I lade the sleeves a little puffier? What do you think?" Tanya asked Olivia.

Olivia nodded. "Mm-hmm, I think so. What do you think, Gadget?"

But Gadget did not think it was a good idea! The dress was ruined, and the cake was ruined. She had enough. "I THINK WE'VE HAD ENOUGH OF THIS NONSENSE!!!" she fumed, as she turned to face them. A flap from the dress flew into her face as she carried on ranting and raving. "I think we ought to think of Cupcake and what she'll think of this mess!" With that, Gadget struggled out of the dress, causing it to fall to pieces, and stomped upstairs. "I still think what I've thought before. I'm going to get those wands!"

As Gadget went upstairs, the cake on the broom began to melt completely, leaving only its burning candles.

"You know, I think she's right." Olivia said to Tanya, who nodded at her. This was not easy without using their wands. And the eighteen years are up anyway.

Suddenly, Gadget ran back downstairs, carrying the three wands in her hands. "Here they are! Good as new!" she called.

But Tanya was cautious about what Gadget was going to do with their wands. "Ah, ah, ah, duh, duh, duh! Careful, Gadget!" she warned, as she took the wands from her friend. Then Gadget locked the doors while Olivia closed the windows and Tanya locked up every cranny in the cottage. "Quick! Lock the doors. Olivia, you close the windows. Oh, lock up every cranny. We can't take any chances!" said Tanya. Then she gave Olivia her wand and said, to her, "And now, you take care of the cake."

Gadget began, "While I..."

"Clean the room, dear." Tanya finished, as she gave Gadget her wand and kept her own. "And I'll make the dress. Now hurry!"

Gadget became angry a little. But she realized what Tanya meant, and she zapped a bucket, a mop, and a broom that were standing in a corner, making the objects come to life, ready to do any bidding. "Come on, bucket, mop, broom! Tanya says clean up the room!" she called. Then the cleaning stuff immediately began to clean up the place as the broom swept away what ever pieces of the ruined dress were lying on the floor.

"And now to make a lovely dress, fit the grace of fair princess!" Tanya chuckled, as she took a fresh sheet of yellow cloth, and, with a whirl of her wand, she transformed the cloth into a base of the dress.

"Eggs, flour, milk!" Olivia called, as the ingredients also came to life and walked over to listen to the Scotsmouse. "Just do it like it says here in the book. I'll put on the candles." said Anna, as the ingredients walked over to a mixing bowl, and the flour, milk, and eggs were put in.

Meanwhile, the broom was sweeping some dust. The rug, stool, and chair Gadget was standing on moved up in order to make way for it. When the broom stopped sweeping, Gadget noticed the pile of dust was still on the floor, so she zapped it away.

While the ingredients were still filling in the mixing bowl and a big wooden spoon was stirring up the ingredients, Olivia took a taste of some cinnamon. Then, when the batter was done, the cake looked perfectly baked with seventeen layers containing pink, and purple frosting, fuchsias, violets, periwinkles, and lavenders.

Now Tanya was making the sleeves. She took another yellow sheet and, with her wand, she ordered the scissors to cut the cloth four times. Then she zapped some spools of green thread, making them come to life. The needles also came to life, and the sleeves were puffed up and stitched with the green thread. Now the sleeve was short, and it flew over to the left side of the dress and stuck it in its armhole. Now the dress was perfectly sewn!

Gadget was dancing with the mop. She danced and twirled while the mop did the same. Then she jumped, and the broom followed suite, only into the bucket and out. Then Gadget kept dancing and twirling while the mop washed the floor.

The mop glided gracefully under the table where Olivia was standing at. She lifted one foot in order to give it room. Then she lifted her other foot until she was floating off the floor. When the mop was done washing under the table, Anna landed back on the floor.

Gadget was still dancing with the mop, and Tanya was using her wand to put lace on the sleeves and the neckhole. Gadget saw her and stopped. "Oh no, not yellow! Make it lavender!" said Gadget, as she zapped the dress, making it turn lavender.

Tanya saw that and gasped in shock. "Gadget Hackwrench!" she scolded.

"Make it yellow!" Tanya said, as she zapped the dress back to its yellow color.

Gadget still danced with the mop as it was still washing the floor. "Make it lavender!" she whispered, zapping it lavender again.

Tanya saw that the dress was lavender again and was now irritated. "Oh, yellow!" she said. She zapped it back to yellow again.

"Lavender!" Gadget smiled, still dancing. But this time, Tanya stood before the dress, and her clothes turned lavender. Gadget snickered to herself until Tanya angrily turned her jumpsuit yellow. That actually did it. Because they began to start fighting over the color.

As Olivia was putting purple frosting on the pink frosting-coated cake, lavender and yellow lightning bolts began flying all over the place and into the fireplace, where blazes of color went through the chimney.

Unfortunately, the fight happened at a wrong time. Because Azrael was walking through the forest when he saw lavender and yellow fireworks from a distance. He walked over to investigate, and he saw the fireworks coming out from the chimney. Curiously, he looked down in it, only to get zapped multiple times by the lightning bolts.

Inside the house, the war continued, until they both hit the dress at the same time, with the result that it looked like two cans of color paint were emptied on it.

"Ohhh, now look what you've done!" Tanya angrily said to Gadget.

Olivia had just finished lighting all eighteen candles on the cake because she heard something. "Shh, listen!" she said. Then she began to listen closely to a faint sounds coming from the forest. As it got louder, it began to sound like someone singing. And they already recognized whose voice it was.

"It's Cupcake!" said Gadget, realizing who's singing.

"She's back! Enough of this foolishness." said Tanya, as she and Gadget changed their clothes back to their original colors.

Gadget zapped the dishes clean and put them in a cupboard, and Tanya set the dress and a pair of ankle-length bloomers and silk gloves on the chair and set a pair of shoes on the floor. "Make it yellow." she said. She turned the dress, bloomers, gloves, and shoes yellow and turned to Gadget. "Now hide! Quick!" said Tanya, motioning Gadget to hide.

Before going, Olivia turned to the yellow dress, bloomers, gloves, and shoes. "Purple!" she whispered, as she turned the dress, shoes, gloves, and bloomers purple without Tanya and Gadget noticing. Then she ran to the attic to join the teenage Russian girl mouse.

Cupcake was running to the cottage. "Aunt Tanya!" she called.

Then Tanya was surprised to see the mop still washing the floor. "Good gracious! Who left the mop running?" she exclaimed.

Gadget also noticed the mop and realized that she had forgotten about it. "Stop, mop!" she said, as she zapped the mop, making it drop to the floor, lifeless.

Cupcake opened the door, walked inside the cottage, set the berries on a small table, and unbuttoned her cloak. But she was surprised to find Tanya and the others nowhere in sight. As the German girl looked around, Azrael peeked into the door and sees her. He became very suspicious about the German girl, her hair is golden-blonde and 70 feet long, and her eyes are green, but is it the same Princess Rapunzel? "Aunt Tanya! Olivia! Gadget!" she called, as she hung up the cloak. "Where is everybody?" said Cupcake, wondering where they were.

Then she suddenly gasped when she saw the purple dress, shoes, bloomers, & gloves, and the cake and became very happy. "Surprise, surprise!" Tanya, Olivia, and Gadget cheered in unison, as they all came out of their hiding place to surprise Cupcake.

"Happy birthday, Cupcake!" said Olivia, hugging Cupcake.

"Oh you darlings, this is the happiest day of my life. Everything's so wonderful! Just wait till you meet him!" said Cupcake, hugging them back.

"Him?" said Olivia, being startled, when Cupcake mentioned someone.

"Cupcake!" gasped Gadget, who also seemed surprised.

"You-You've met some stranger?" asked Tanya.

"Oh he's not a stranger," Cupcake explained. "we've met before."

"You have?" said Tanya.

"Where?" asked Gadget.

"Once upon a dream!" Cupcake said dreamily, and she began to sing Once Upon A Dream.

Cupcake: I know you I walked with you Once upon a dream

The girl mice looked at each other with confused looks. They didn't know what was going on with Cupcake. Then Cupcake took Olivia by the hands and danced with her. Then Olivia noticed the cause of her behavior and realized. "She's in love!" said Olivia.

"Oh no!" said Gadget.

"This is terrible!" said Tanya.

Then Cupcake stopped singing and dancing and became confused by what they said. And she didn't understand what was going on. "Why? After all, I am eighteen." said Cupcake.

The mouse girls then began to know that it was time to tell her the truth. "It isn't that, dear." said Tanya.

"You're already betrothed." said Olivia.

"Betrothed?" said Cupcake, still confused.

"Since the day you were born." answered Gadget.

"To Prince Flynn Rider, dear." Olivia agreed.

"But that's impossible!" said Cupcake, "How could I marry a prince, I'd have to be..."

"A princess?" Gadget finished, smiling.

"And you are, dear!" said Olivia.

"Princess Rapunzel!" said Tanya.

Then Azrael became surprised when it heard this. He smiled evilly, knowing that he has found the princess. Then he flew off to tell Mother Gothel the news.

"Tonight, we're taking you back to your uncle, King Hokey." Tanya told Cupcake.

Cupcake's eyes started to fill up with tears. "But...but I can't!" she said, "He's coming here tonight. I promised to meet him."

"I'm sorry, child," said Tanya, taking Cupcake's hands in her own. "But you must never see that young man again."

Cupcake became shocked when she heard it and began to cry, thinking she would never see that same guy again. Soon, she began to shed tears. "Oh, no, no!" sobbed Cupcake. "I can't believe it. No, no!" The teenage Russian girl mouse, the young Scottish girl mouse, and the teenage American girl mouse tried to comfort her, but she suddenly ran upstairs to her room, crying.

Tanya, Olivia, and Gadget sadly looked at each other. "And we thought she'd be so happy." said Gadget. A tear slid down Tanya's cheek.

Cupcake continued to cry on her bed throughout the afternoon, thinking about the guy she fell in love with.
