I am Mia.

a dream or some fantasy or maybe just another kind of reality there's a stand

my ground when the darkness falls I feel like I can be a hero today

come and fly with me

there I'm me a hero

Don't worry, Sarah.

We'll convince your mom that Pepino can stay.

I hope you're right.

So, any ideas?

Well, a good start could be telling her what happened today.

What? If I tell her, she's going to be so mad at me.

Maybe. But how can she trust you if you can't be honest with her?

Okay, but my mom doesn't have to know everything.

Sure, just worry.

And that's the last thing I need.

Go on, Pepino.

Okay, here's the plan.

My mom hates having to tidy up the house when she comes home from work.

And she loves spaghetti alla montana, the only dish I can cook.

Okay, and then?

I haven't figured out that part yet.

Okay.

Time check?

3.30.

Okay, my mom comes home around five, so we have an hour and a half.

Okay, let's do this.

Time check?

Three minutes to five.

Cool. We made it. Yeah.

Did we put out glasses?

Nope. And drinks?

And drinks.

There you are.

Ready to come with me?

What's wrong?

Somebody cleaned the windows.

And hung up the laundry.

Good.

Hi, Mom. Dinner's ready. Hi, Mrs. Poletis.

Mia, I brought your luggage.

Oh, thank you, Mrs. Poletis.

Mmm.

Smells delicious.

Sarah, did you cook this?

So, let's eat.

And talk.

Let me guess.

You want to convince me to let Pepino stay.

I'm sure good food helps make a good decision.

Okay, Mom.

Imagine that every time you came home, the house is tidy and dinner is on the

table. That would be a dream come true.

All I'm asking for is that Pepino can stay.

We can both take care of him.

If I know old Pepino, he will run away from my place every chance he gets.

See?

Sarah, the issue is not Pepino.

I love him as much as you do.

The issue is if I can trust you to not ride him anymore.

Come on, Luciana. She wouldn't be silly enough to do such a thing.

Right, Sarah?

What? I kind of did.

What?

Could I just explain first, and then you can get mad?

I was so worried that you would take Pepino away again, so I just jumped on

him and galloped away.

Jumped on him and galloped away?

Into the forest.

Mia came running after me, but...

I didn't stop.

I was just so mad and so... Fast, actually.

I just wanted to get as far away as possible.

And hide somewhere in the mountains.

Just Pepino and me. And then I got hit by a branch and fell off and twisted my

ankle.

It's better now.

And then Mia found me.

I thought of running away with Sarah, but... She thought it was a bad idea.

And I could see she was right.

So, we decided to ride back. Ride back?

Yes.

And ask you to please reconsider your decision to send Pepino away.

Well, a good meal helps make good decisions.

Right, Mr. Monti?

Right. It's delicious, by the way.

Uh, sorry, I'll be right back.

When a curse from the dark brings an unwanted rest, a glimmer of hope can be

found in your chest.

Nice to have you back, Mia, in wonderful Santopia.

Boy, did that plant grow fast.

Overnight. Literally.

And every night it creeps out more.

Pretty nasty.

Any way we can fight it? If we could just find the root of this evil thing.

But we need to get back inside the castle.

There's just zero way in.

Forget it.

Yuko, what are you doing?

My father ordered us to bring back a sample so we can examine it and maybe

find out what it is okey-dokey though Let's get this back to your father

Careful guys

That was easy next time we come off the big shears

This plant is cursed

you think

Ah, when a curse from the dark brings an unwanted rest, a glimmer of hope can be

found in your chest.

Uh, come again?

That's the oracle I got.

Curse from the dark.

That's what we've got.

You better watch your back, Lord Draken. I'm coming to get you.

And soon.

I really like it when you get so determined.

as you are in charge of the mission.

Me? Why her? She is... You get me that infant unicorn with the golden horn.

Excuse me, your masterness. I'm not sure if you're aware of this, but she failed

before. I should be in charge.

You don't know this island inside and out. I do.

That's why the master put me in charge.

You?

Who? Her.

Me? Me.

I don't care. I want that golden horn.

Just get it.

Hey guys, check it out.

I could use a refreshment. Oh, me too.

I'm first.

Hey, Puddle.

What's today's flavor?

A traditional pan recipe from the Pan King himself.

Fresh and sour.

But I poured in lots of extra sugar, so now it's fresh and sweet.

Don't worry, friends. There's enough for all. King size, too.

Yummy, eh?

If it's so sweet, Yuko, why'd you look so sour?

It's really good. You should try.

Yuko!

My lemonade!

Don't you dare!

Prince Mo?

Yes, Father. Your Majesty.

I'm sorry, Father. We were just... Sorry, King Raynor. It was my fault.

I... It's all right, Yuko. I suppose that's the specimen of Lord Drakon's

mysterious plant we asked you to collect.

Yeah, and you know what's really creepy? Once you cut off a piece, it grows back

even faster. Careful!

Its thorns might possess a dystopian poison, darling.

Whoa.

Don't worry, dear.

Tissandra will find out.

Just place it carefully in the container, will you?

Careful, Yuko!

My queen!

No,

please, no!

I feel so dizzy.

Mom!

Dad, what's wrong?

Mia, go get An Chao, quick.

Right.

Mo, my son, listen.

In the treasure room, you must find the old.

You must open it and... No!

Mom! Dad!

Wake up!

Come on, An Chao. You can heal them, can't you?

The unicorn tears didn't help!

Anchao, try again!

He says... He says he's done everything he can!

No!

If Anchao's powers can't break this spell... I can't imagine anything in

Centopia could.

Are they... dead?

They're asleep.

And if we don't find a cure, the dystopian poison will keep them asleep.

Forever. So what is the cure, Tessandra? Tell us.

If I only knew, my prince.

I mean... my king.

What if they never wake up? They will.

You don't know that. We'll find a way to... It's all my fault.

That's not true, Yuko. What happened was an accident.

If it's anybody's fault, then we're all to blame.

That's not true, and you know that. And so does Mo.

news, little elfies, which is good news for us.

Oh,

today's our lucky day.

Brilliant.

Their best warrior just flew off all teary-eyed and the gods are

abandoning their posts. Brothers, on my command, recharge the elven crater.

No.

Don't forget who's running this show.

My keen senses do not detect another leader about.

Remind me again.

Me, you smug bug.

And I order a sneak attack to avoid their water weapons.

Water? Who's afraid of water?

Water shrinks me down to a useless, embarrassing size.

You mean you're not always useless and embarrassing?

Ah yes,

good idea. We sneak you in. When the elves discover you, you get shrunk by

the elves' water pistols. And while everybody is laughing at you, myself and

my brothers bag the baby unicorn.

So, we move?

No!

New order.

I stay here and supervise while you underlings do all the dirty water work.

Understand?

What selfless leadership!

Brothers, on my command, charge the crater!

What? Wait!

I'm supposed to say that.

No, I cannot be king.

I... But you are, darling.

Who else could, Moe? I could, if I have to. I mean, I in fact just came to ask

if there's anything I can do. Come, Fuddle. You can help me with something

else. Deal. I mean, see you later, Prince, um, King, um, what is he now?

Let's go, darling.

What would my father do now, Mia? Tell me that. He'd do everything to protect

Syntopia.

Huh?

Where's Yuko?

She's... she thinks it was her fault that your parents got stung.

What? Well, that's kind of true, isn't it? Does it matter?

When a spell from the dark brings an unwanted rest, a glimmer of hope can be

found in your... Mia, I cannot be king.

Why not?

Because I don't know what to do.

I don't know what to do. Prince Moe, we're under attack.

Well, then we do what we always have done.

Activate the water dome!

Come on, and get your glares ready!

Everybody!

Those bugs are in for a better soaking this time!

Didn't you hear what the king said?

Glare your activates, and dome your water readies!

Came for?

Sorry, Buckbreath, but this ain't what you came for. Oh, a shower. I enjoy a

refreshing battle.

Take this!

You're messing with the wrong roach, big boy.

Pinky?

Yuko, darling?

Sitting on a purple mushroom and crying?

That's not the Yuko I know.

I am... A unicorn guard.

And one of the best, darling, aren't you?

But, Mo, he and Mia, they... They what?

Love them kids.

Mo, what will we do? I don't know. We need... Take that, you slimy bug!

Huh? Oh, how?

You...

Fuddled's lemonade?

I told you, it's good.

What's that?

Try it.

It's sweet.

Dax will never surrender.

But he will retreat.

Refreshments, anyone?

Help yourself, my

friends.

All for one. Yes.

That's why we failed. Now get in here and get the slime off my brothers.

Me? Never.

And why not?

Because I hate water.

Don't you dare.

Brilliant.

A glimmer of hope can be found in your chest.

This is what my father was trying to tell me before the poison put him to

sleep.

Open it, King Mo.

It's yours.

Whoa.

Yowza! What is it?

I really don't know.

I've never seen a crystal like this before.

Yeah.

If we could only find out what powers it bears.

Look!

The Glimmer of Hope! You think the crystal is the key to

destroying Draken's poison plant?

Well, you could ask the Pan King.

He's got one of those too. I saw it once.

Then the crystal could also be the key to healing your parents.

Go see the Pan King.

Find out what he knows about it. Well... Then we leave with the first sunbeam in

the morning.

I gotta go, guys.

Hopefully this will bring me back in time. Do we ever go anywhere without

you?

Be back safe and soon, Mia.

King's orders!

As soon as I can!

Hey, guys.

Any news yet?

Not yet.

She's coming.

I've decided.

You are right.

Pepino belongs here.

He can stay.

Yes. But under two conditions.

Two? First, you must promise to always tell me what's going on with you, even

if it makes me mad.

Okay, I think I can do that. One second. You will cook for me again.

Not every day, of course, but every now and then it would be nice.

We'll even learn how to cook a second dish. Right, Mia? You bet.

Thank you, Mom.

You won't regret it.

I promise.
