**Chapter 10: Once Upon A Time**

Sinister activity was brewing in the lair of the Fables Fears, a group of villains based on Aesop's Fables. A middle-aged man with a suit based was coming out of his sleeping quarters and onto the bridge. "Okay, folks," he said. "Let's see where this whole thing goes."

"Don't worry, Francis," replied a lion-alien. "We, the Fables Fears, always make the good patrons of puny planets cower."

"Most of us," replied a female tortoise alien in a Spanish accent. "Those of them snuck away through one of the escape pods."

"How did you know that?" asked Francis.

"Security footage," she answered. "Apparently, Harriet was in such a hurry that she forgot to get rid of the cameras. How I'd envied her."

"You always do that, Tortisetilla," replied the lion alien. "Now let's get to this little planet of yours, Francis. What's it called again?"

"It's called Earth," answered Francis. "And trust me, Lioniko, these people there always cower at the presence of aliens."

"Excellent," smiled Lioniko.

**XxoxX**

Meanwhile in Phoenix, Arizona. Candy and her older brother/captain of the guard, Pop, were bouncing around town looking for the new Glitter Force.

"Are you sure the new Glitter Force is here, sis?" asked Pop.

"It was in my dream, Pop," replied Candy. "The Fable Fears returned after a very long time and are now going to make this planet turn into cowards. The only ones who can stop them are the new Glitter Force Sprinkle Spark. They're called that, because their names are based on cookies."

"Not like those cookies you ate for breakfast this morning," replied Pop.

"Hey," replied Candy angrily. "It's called stress-eating. It's a good thing I gave Rufus the leftovers. He just loves leftovers." Just then, she bumped into a sign that read "The Sugar Plum Dance Academy."

"That sounds like the Sugar Plum Fairy from 'The Nutcracker'," Pop recalled. "Maybe you'll find the Glitter Force Sprinkle Spark here."

Candy knew that she could find them at this dance school. She and Pop looked all around the place for the Glitter Force. First, she checked Flamenco, then Tap, then Disco, then Bollywood, until finally, she came into the Teen Modern Dance classroom, where they were led by a red-haired woman confined in a wheelchair. "Nicely done, students," she spoke in a Russian accent. "You're all maniacs on the floor."

"But I'm the most maniacist of them all," bragged a blonde girl with really short hair and lilac clothing.

"No, you're not, Stevie," growled an African-American girl with orange gym clothes. "We're all equal."

Candy sensed that the girl in orange clothes was a Glitter Force member.

"Please, Emelia," Stevie sarcastically growled. "They say all men are created equal, but I think it meant you all look like grey blobs."

"Ms. Vipond," growled the teacher, "please stop before I call your parents about your rudeness again."

"Yes, Mrs. Lewin," Stevie replied as they went back dancing.

"That's for insulting Emelia," a Pacific-Islander girl in green gym clothes sneered.

"Yeah," agreed a Korean girl in pink gym clothes. "Like, anger ruins you and causes internal scars."

Candy could sense that the two girls who stood up to Stevie were Glitter Force members too.

"I'm so sorry to interrupt," replied Mrs. Lewin, "but has anyone seen Salma Bello?"

"You mean the new girl," said a smaller African-American girl in yellow. "I saw her going into the hip-hop room. It's been a week since she came here and has been having a hard time going around the place."

Candy sensed that the girl in yellow was a Glitter Force member, too.

"I'll go get her," said the girl in orange.

"Like, me too," replied the Korean girl.

"I'm coming with you girls," said Emelia.

"Wait for me!" shouted the little girl in yellow.

**XxoxX**

In another dance room was a Columbian girl with shoulder-length brown hair, a flower barrette, and blue gym apparel. The four other girls could see her dancing to "Every Woman" by the Glitter Force.

"That must be Salma," the girl in orange suggested, "the new girl from Columbia."

"Excuse us!" shouted Emelia as Salma slipped and landed on her butt.

"What's that for?" Salma growled. "I lost my concentration."

"Sorry," Emelia replied. "I'm Emelia, and this is Wren, Kaylani, and my sister Mayve. We're part of Mrs. Lewin's modern dance class. For the past week you've been missing out, and most of us are worried sick."

"Listen," Salma replied. "I swore off making friends after my parents divorced. So I don't need anyone."

Candy felt horrible for what Salma had to go through. She knew that everyone had to have friends. Candy snuck through an open part of the window and landed in Salma's duffle.

After the others left to tell Mrs. Lewin, Salma walked to her duffle to get her water bottle when she saw Candy in it.

"What the?" Salma asked. "This toy looks kind of real."

"That's because I'm the real Candy!" Candy shouted as Salma started to freak out.

"What are you doing in my duffle bag?" asked Salma.

"A decade ago," Candy explained, "I became the queen of Jubiland after my mother retired. As one of my first orders, I told some of the guards to go out and find some of the lost Glitter Charms stolen by the Fables Fears 100 years ago. For a while, nothing came to be, but then a human male named Francis Fable found the lost Amulet of Aesop and is using it to summon Buffoons, who are clown-like villains used to absorb negative energy. These guys, they make everyone cower and become scared of everything."

"Wait," Salma recalled. "Francis Fable?"

"Yeah," Candy replied.

"I know that maroon," recalled Salma. "That's Francis Fable, the host of 'Ever After Imagination'. I used to watch it as a kid, even in reruns. After 3 decades of being the host, he started going through a mid-life crisis and aging problems. After that, they replaced him with someone hipper so that the little ones can watch."

"Things do change," Candy replied. "But I'll let you think about it." Then she bounced off to find her brother.

**XxoxX**

Later, Salma wore a light-blue top, blue ripped jeaned shorts, fingerless gloves, teal socks, and blue high heels. She was in her room reading 'Glitter Force' manga when a girl with long brown hair, a blue blouse, pants, and sandals came in.

"Hey, sis." said her eldest sister, Valeria. "Can I come in?"

"Sure, Ria," Salma said. "What is it?"

"It's Papa," explained Ria, "He burned up the chicken again."

"This is what happens when you add too much cooking oil, Papa," Salma growled as she got out $20 from her savings. "Let me get some takeout for you guys."

"Good idea," replied Ria. "The only thing he can cook up is microwavable meals."

By a blue doggy bed, a brown Dachshund who had a light blue collar with a candy tag was sleeping when she heard Salma's footsteps.

"Come on, Sugar Dust," Salma said to her dog. "Let's get some takeout before Papa eats his shoes again." While she was heading out to Velossi's to pick up a pizza, she was spotted by Stevie, who wore a lilac shirt with a magenta top, a purple skirt and lilac shoes.

"Well, well, well," Stevie said. "If it isn't the new kid."

"Stevie, right?" recalled Salma.

"Yeah," Stevie growled. "Let's get something straight. I'm the star of Mrs. Lewin's dance class. So stay out of my way."

"I will," Salma cautioned, "if you promise to stop bugging your classmates. I've seen you insult kindergartners in my sister's new modern dance class for kindergartners."

"Those ankle-biting brats," Stevie growled. "They're a pain."

Salma got annoyed and left to get the pizza while Sugar Dust growled at Stevie. By the time the two got to Velossi's Pizza, they saw some customers getting nervous. Some of them were worried that they might get the wrong pizza, or that it might be moldy when they get it. Salma and Sugar Dust knew that something was off. Not only that, but Salma also noticed that she was unaffected by the worries.

"Impossible!" shouted Lioniko. "How could you be unaffected? Unless you're a Glitter Force. Only they're immune to our fear absorption."

"It's true," Salma said. "The whole Fables Fears thing is real. I'm not scared of you, nor your splintery paws."

"A tomboy, huh?" dared Lioniko. "Well then, here's a little net job for you."

Before he had a chance to trap Salma, a blinding light surrounded her. Everywhere Salma looked, blue sparkles were everywhere. Salma began to wonder what was going on and why this power was surrounding her.

"Because you stay true to who you are," Candy answered as she came up. "A tomboy at heart. You're also the Robin Hood guardian Glitter Chip. Just use the Glitter Force Compact and say, "'Glitter Force Makeover'."

Salma knew what it was like to have a soft side for the Glitter Force, so she decided to do it.

*Glitter Force Makeover*

*Break it down with the heart of a hero! I'm Glitter Chip!*

Salma opened her eyes to see she was wearing a Glitter Force Robin Hood-styled uniform with blue frills and her hair was a side ponytail. "Finally," she shouted, "real Glitter Force action!" She started to notice that Sugar Dust was hiding because she thought Salma was someone else. "It's okay Sugar Dust," Glitter Chip said to her dog. "It's me, Salma. I'm just in my new Glitter Force form."

"It's a good thing that Earth animals can remember what's going on," Candy replied. "It would be a big mess if they could talk and blab out the Glitter Force's existence."

"Here's another mess," Lioniko said as he summoned a red clown nose. "Buffoon, come on down!" He made a pizza slice into a Buffoon Monster.

"Buffoon!" shouted Pizza Buffoon.

"Okay, Salma," Glitter Chip said, to herself. "Just remember those mangas." Suddenly, she turned invisible. Lioniko and the Pizza Buffoon couldn't find her, but Candy could.

"You're bonded with Robin Hood," replied Candy, "meaning you can fight off the greedy and give to the needy."

"Hey," Glitter Chip said. "You're right."

Glitter Chip got out an arrow with a chocolate chip cookie in the end and a bow with cookie patterns.

*Sherwood Smash*

With one direct shot, the Buffoon turned into a pizza charm.

"You may have won this round," Lioniko said, "but my friends will come to Earth and make everyone scared." Just like that, he disappeared without a trace.

Glitter Chip turned back into Salma, and all she saw was a bunch of kids being scared of the new pizza mascot. Salma saw in her hands that there were sparkles and decided to give to the needy like Robin Hood. From her hands, she gave the mascot a batch of cookies and the kids weren't scared anymore. The parents didn't know how that happened but were happy that their children weren't scared of the mascot anymore.

In an empty alleyway, Salma tested out the pizza glitter charm. Out of the charm came three pizzas, a bunch of fries, a dozen cookies, and two sodas. Salma got an idea of what to do with them.

**XxoxX**

Later at home, a middle-aged man with blue clothes was biting his nails. "What's taking Salmy so long?" he said. "I want to eat my loafers."

"No, Papa," Ria said to her father. "When you were with Mom, the cooking was fine. Maybe it's better if I do most of the cooking around here, and whenever Salma is by herself, she can cook up some microwavable meals."

Suddenly, the doorbell rang. "Pizza delivery for the Bellos!" shouted Salma.

Candy lightly dropped the soda bottles so no one could suspect. Then she hid in the bushes where no one would know about the Glitter Force. Ria answered the door and helped Salma carry in the takeout.

"It's okay, Dad," called Ria. "Salma brought in some takeout. This will be enough to last for three days."

"Gracias!" shouted Mr. Bello as he started setting the table.

As they were eating pizza, Ria was amazed by how Salma got a lot of food and wondered how did she do that. Salma couldn't tell her father and sister about the Glitter Force. She looked outside and saw Candy with a chocolate chip cookie Salma gave her on the way home and said, "Let's just say it's a touch of magic."

**The End**

**Chapter 11: Somebody Has Been Eating My Tofu**

At Aladdin's Donation Den, a local thrift store, Salma was going through some books for new "Glitter Force" manga, the bilingual English/Spanish editions. That was when she saw Wren humming Glitter Force's "Believe In You."

"Hey, Wren," Salma said as Wren turned around. "You remember me from dance class?"

"Like, I remember," Wren recalled. "You've been having a hard time meeting people because of you 'Swore Off Friends'."

Salma noticed the paintings and on the corner. She saw Korean writing, and under it was the English translation - Wren Mae. "You painted these?" guessed Salma.

"Like, yeah," replied Wren. "I call this one 'Wild Beyond Wild'. It shows the importance of jungle wildlife." Then she showed one with a windmill and some rabbits. "That one is 'Windmill of the Rabbits'," she continued. "It shows that rabbits are very delicate and Holland holds some of its species." And finally, she showed one with the Greek Titan of Nature. "And that one," she finished, "that one is 'Gaia's Rage'. After watching 'Captain Planet', I noticed that Gaia is an actual Greek titan and wanted to show how angry Gaia is for people causing pollution, girl. Including how insulting butcher shops are."

Salma knew that Wren also had pain in the past. She asked what was wrong, but Wren said, "It's personal. I don't want to talk about it."

"Come on," Salma replied. "You hippies said to me the day we met - 'Talking about your feelings makes you feel better'."

Wren took a deep breath, and she explained to Salma, "My parents owned a butcher's shop in Koreatown in Los Angeles. I always felt a little different from my parents. Whenever they buy vegetables, they don't usually eat them. I knew someone had to eat them before they go to waste. They both hated eating fruits and vegetables, but it was doctor's orders. One day at an all-meat BBQ, I ran away due to the pressure. I hid in the basement, only to find illegally imported meat from North Korea, that's where my parents grew up. Remembering the dangers in class, I had to call the police while they weren't looking. I was lucky I have an older brother who works at Riding Hood Children's Hospital."

Salma was amazed that Wren left her meat-loving parents in favor of being vegetarian. "I remember when mi amigo, Fernando, became vegetarian after seeing meat-eating PSAs by living members of the Beatles."

"No way," Wren replied. "The Beatles are, like, my favorite band of all time."

"Yeah," Salma recalled. "I had four male best friends growing up: Javier, Fernando, Aaron, and Tomas. I miss them."

Wren decided to give Salma a little personal space. At the toy section of the thrift store, she saw Candy playing with some Happy Lambs.

"When am I going to tell Wren that she's a Glitter Force member?" asked Salma quietly.

"When the next Buffoon comes out," answered Candy.

"You better get into my tote purse before one of the kids here mistakes you for a toy," suggested Salma.

"You're right," Candy replied sadly. "I remember the time where April's siblings mistook me for a toy." She flew straight into Salma's tote purse before anyone noticed.

**XxoxX**

The next day at home, Wren placed on a bathrobe, because she was coming out of the shower. In her late-'60s psychedelic room, she got a text from Salma, saying if they could get together at her house. Wren didn't know how Salma got her number but decided to do it anyway. Later at the Bello's residence, she caught up with Salma.

"How did you get my number?" Wren asked.

"Ria gave it to me," Salma explained. "She knew I needed someone my age to talk to. After Mrs. Lewin told her about me talking to Emelia, Kaylani, Mayve, and Wren about my first few times coming here, she decided that we should be friends."

"I'm off to work, Salma," Mr. Bello said to his younger daughter. "One of the waiters called in sick and Mr. Kinikia asked me to fill in for him."

"Papa," replied Salma, "this is Wren, my dance classmate. I invited her to talk about famous vegetarians, besides the Beatles."

"I'm very proud of you," Mr. Bello smiled, "for not only making a new friend but of the same gender." Then he took off to go to work.

Meanwhile, on the Fable Fears' spaceship, Francis was mad at Lioniko for failing him. "This was my big chance to get back on air!" shouted Francis, "and look where it got me!"

"Come on," replied Lioniko. "You found our amulet after your landlord kicked you out of your apartment because you couldn't pay the rent for five months."

"I was panicking, okay?" Francis replied. "I wanted to be creative in the ways of Aesop's Fables."

"Senor," inquired Tortisetilla, "perhaps I could be of assistance. I want to show Harriet that I'm better than her."

"Be my guest," Francis said.

"Why not absorb the fear of the children of Jiminy Street in Phoenix and make them cowardly?" suggested Tortisetilla.

"Good idea," replied Francis. He pressed on his amulet, the Amulet of Aesop, and made all the kids of Jiminy Street become cowardly.

**XxoxX**

Meanwhile, at the Bello residence, Wren was going through the famous vegetarians when they heard a screaming panic outside. "Like," she asked, "what's going on, man?"

"Fable Fears," growled Salma as she got out her Glitter Compact.

*Glitter Force Makeover*

*Break it down with the heart of a hero! I'm Glitter Chip!*

"Groovy" replied Wren, "Your like, a Glitter Force member."

"Something like that" replied Glitter Chip as she took off, "Okay you Fable, get out here, now!"

"My pleasure" shouted Tortisetilla, "Tortisetilla at your service."

"This sounds like The Tortise and The Hare" recalled Salma, "Only if the tortoise was the villain."

"That's right" replied Tortisetilla as she got out a Buffoon Nose, "Now for our next guessed. Buffoon, Come On Down"

She turned an art easel into Easel Buffoon, this was Glitter Chip's chance to destroy it.

*Sherwood Smash.*

Unfortunately, it was too strong. Glitter Chip knew that she couldn't do it again because a Glitter Force member only uses her attack once. "This is my fault," Wren said as she got on her knees, "I should've never been involved in so much violence."

"This was never your fault, Wren" Glitter Chip shouted, "This is just like in Hansel and Gretel. The witch pretended to be nice to them by offering them snacks, but was really going to eat them."

"Yeah," Wren said as she got back up, "I'm not fooled by ungroovy appearances."

"What is that hippie doing here" shouted Tortisetilla, "It should like to go to a drum circle of depression instead."

"Hey no, I WON'T GO!" shouted Wren as pink glitter surrounded her.

All around, Wren couldn't help but notice the pretty colors and wondered why is this happening, "That's because you weren't afraid to do the right thing" Candy said as she came up to Wren, "Staying loyal to Salma is the smartest thing to do Wren. One more thing, your Glitter Sugar, guardian of The Princess and The Pea. Insert your Glitter Charm in the compact and say, "Glitter Force Makeover"

*Glitter Force Makeover*

*Spice Is Nice, and Sweetness Is Precise, I'm Glitter Sugar.*

"Yuck" growled Tortisetilla, "I thought peas were savory."

Glitter Sugar opened her eyes to see her pink outfits. Her long flowing hair was still there, but it was added with odango's on top. "Like Far Out" said Glitter Sugar, "This is a groovy dress."

"Now's your chance, Glitter Sugar" shouted Candy, "Use your Bedtime Bling to stop that Buffoon."

*Bedtime Bling!*

Just like that, The Buffoon turned into a paintbrush charm.

After Tortisetilla left, everything turned back to normal. The mother was tossing out an old easel that the family didn't want anymore. "That's the spirit," shouted Wren, "Tossing out an old easel that's old and worn. That way trash dudes can like, turn it into a new easel."

By her foot, she saw the Glitter Charm. The two of them decided to go in so no one would notice the magic.

Candy was on the sofa cuddling with one of the thrift pillows her dad got for her for one of his birthdays. "Be careful" Salma replied, "Those mean a lot to me and my Papa"

"Sorry, Salma" replied Candy, "These thrift store pillow are so adorable."

"Yeah" replied Salma, "I needed to remind my dad to buy reused items, we don't want a landfill overflow."

"Duh," Wren replied, "Or else bears and wolves will come into our cities."

First, Wren set up a batch of cookies from her hand and placed them down. Candy took a bite and realized they're the vegetarian special, "Now like, let's see what this Glitter Charm can do"

As she activated the Glitter Charm, a bunch of paintbrushes came out of it, "This is like, what I needed" Wren said, "New paintbrushes"

Salma looked at the wall clock and noticed that it was still 11 am and on a Saturday, which was confusing, "Whenever a Buffoon attacks the human world," Candy explained, "Time stands still, so that way no one would ever expect what really happened."

Salma frowned and realized something, "I never got to say goodbye to my old friends in Columbia," Salma said.

"Perhaps you should like, text them" Wren suggested, "You like to have their numbers right."

Salma sent one of her friends in Columbia a text but got no reply.

"It takes a while to reply back." Wren explained as Salma's phone started to beep, "Or perhaps 10 seconds."

Carefully, she read the text.

*Sal*

*We knew you wanted to say, "Adios" but you didn't have the heart due to the divorce*

*The guys and I miss you a lot and we'll write to you when we can,*

*Javier*

Salma smiled, knowing that they still care.

**XxoxX**

Later at the Mae's house, Wren was painting a picture when a Korean man with glasses and doctor apparel came home working at Riding Hood Children's Hospital. He looked at the painting and saw that it was of Salma, "Is that of your new friend, "Salma?" he asked.

"It is Minjoon" Wren answered, "As a big brother, you always like want to know what I'm painting next."

"What did you do today?" asked Minjoon as he took off his doctor's coat.

"Like Salma and I shared some vegetarian cookies" Wren explained, "I showed her a few watercolor basics and we made that tofu guksu recipe."

"The same one you learned from that Korean cookbook I bought for you" recalled Minjoon, "How could I forget, that was one of the first vegetarian recipes you learned. I helped out too so you wouldn't burn the kitchen."

"So what's for dinner tonight," asked Wren

"Your favorite" replied Minjoon, "Namul, which is steamed vegetables."

"Yummy" shouted Wren.

**The End.**

**Chapter 12: Rock A Bye Baby**

At Mae's residence, Wren was painting a still portrait of Salma wearing a blue hanbok.

"Wren," groaned Salma, "my legs are killing me. Are you sure this hanbok is comfortable? I can't feel my legs."

"I have to," Wren answered as she continued painting.

"Can we take a break," Salma groaned. "I can't breath in this thing."

"Hold on," Wren answered as she put on the finishing touches. "And done. This is perfect for to sell online."

"You sell paintings on the net," asked Salma.

"My brother hooked it up for me, of course," Wren explained as she took off her smock. "I have to help him out somehow."

Just then, they heard the doorbell ring. "Somebody is at the door," Candy said as she got out from Wren's toy chest. "Probably someone special."

By the door was Wren's friend, Kaylani. Kaylani had armpit-length light brown hair with orange highlights, a marigold dress, vermillion leggings, and orange mary janes, "Like, what brings you here to my Pad?" Mae asked.

"It's my Uncle Damian," explained Kaylani. "He's in the hospital for Aunt Jolene. She's in labor and needs someone to help my brother Flynn run the karaoke/candy bar."

"What about the assistant manager?" Salma asked.

"Her aunt IS the assistant manager," Wren corrected. "She can work even if she's carrying a baby."

"Salma," Kaylani recalled, "It's wonderful to see you again. I heard you're Wren's new painting model."

"You told her at our dance class yesterday?" asked Salma. "Man, I hate it when people gossip."

"You know who else loves gossip?" asked Kaylani. "Stevie. She just loves to eavesdrop on people and mix it up like crazy."

"What a rumor weed," replied Salma.

**XxoxX**

They arrived at Sugar Songtime Karaoke Bar. The exterior had lollipops, hibiscuses, and Hawaiian lanterns upfront. Inside, the place was a cross between a pub and a karaoke bar with Hawaiian candy of the kitchen came a Pacific Islander boy with short brown hair, a green Hawaiian shirt, khakis, loafers, and a red apron. He was Kaylani's older brother, Flynn.

"Kay," Flynn said to his sister. "I'm so glad to see you. The karaoke bar is a madhouse, people have been waiting to get their food."

"Anything else?" asked Kaylani.

Just then, someone sang a female empowerment song loudly and dreadfully. "What is that awful noise?" asked Salma

"Stevie," answered Wren. "Her and her lousy singing."

"She's been hogging the karaoke machine for an hour," explained Flynn. "We're starting to lose customers fast because of her. Try to get rid of her so we can have our song times back."

"We will," Kaylani replied.

Onstage, Stevie continued singing her song dreadfully.

*I am a lady, I am a she*

*A woman gets to be FREEEEEEEEE*

"Man," Salma said to Kaylani. "Her voice is terrible. Did she ever try singing lessons?"

"No," Kaylani explained. "The music teachers couldn't take it. Not even when we were playing at the music store."

"You were friends with Stevie," asked Salma.

"Only for three months," Kaylani answered. "Then it all ended when she tricked me into performing with the clown and pelting me with the birthday cake."

"Ouch," Salma replied.

"I know," Kaylani replied. "That day I learned to be careful about who I trust and people are not who they say they are."

**XxoxX**

Meanwhile on a ship, a crow-like alien and a fox-like alien were fighting over some cheese.

"Hey, Crowetta," said the fox-alien. "What type of fox repairs cars? A Fixen!"

Crowetta laughed so hard, she dropped her cheese and the fox-alien ate it, much to her dismay. "Just like in the story, Foxander," she replied. "You always steal my food."

"Crowetta! Foxander!" Francis shouted. "This is no time for a food fight. This is now a time to go down to Earth and perform another fear absorption."

*Some say they are housewives*

*And they STAYYY AT HOME!*

*It is the only placed to be their DOME*

Tortisetilla and Lioniko were observing their monitors see Stevie's dreadful singing. "What is that awful sound?" asked Francis.

"It's not awful, señor," replied Tortisetilla. "It's wonderful. This young lady has the voice of a dark angel."

"You're telling me," Francis replied as he plugged his ears. "Absorb the fear of that karaoke bar. I can't take the awful singing anymore."

Crowetta decided to go because she wanted to hear more of Stevie's dreadful singing. Back at Sugar Songtime Karaoke Bar, more people left due to that dreadful singing.

*A WOMAN IS FREEEE!*

"Shut up with that singing!" shouted a patron. "My kids are trying to eat their dinner!"

"You don't like my singing?" Stevie growled. "You're a bunch of bozos!"

"I'm afraid they're right," Salma replied. "Your singing is scaring everyone away."

"My singing is the best singing in the world, Bello!" shouted Stevie. "Appreciate it or I'll punch you!"

"I've got a better idea," Salma replied as she took the microphone and started to sing.

*A woman is free*

*I am a lady, I am a she*

*A woman gets to be free*

*Some say they are housewives*

*And they stay at home*

*It is the only placed to be their dome*

*I am a lady, I am a she*

*A woman gets to be free*

*Change is coming, and equal rights too*

*There are some things that we can't argue*

*A woman is free*

Everyone in the karaoke bar started to come back in after they were dazzled by Salma's beautiful singing voice. Little did they know, Crowetta snuck in and plucked some of her black feathers from her wings. "Time to give them an encore presentation," she whispered as she blew the feathers to the customers. Kaylani, Wren, and Salma started to notice that everyone was becoming cowards.

"What if they don't like my singing?" asked one patron.

"What are they so critical?" asked another.

Stevie even started becoming cowardly too. "Salma is so much better than me," she said. "I'm no good at all."

"Is this some sort of Glitter Force troubles?" Kaylani asked. "I had a crow feather on me and I seem fine."

"Exactly," Salma replied. "Come on, Wren. It's showtime."

*Glitter Force Makeover*

*Break it down with the heart of a hero! I'm Glitter Chip!*

*Spice is nice, and sweetness is precise! I'm Glitter Sugar!*

"I knew it," smiled Kaylani. "Your both Glitter Force members too. No wonder my heart felt strong with you too."

"You sound like our old friend Darth Vader!" shouted Crowetta. "The names Crowetta. I'm Francis's bird's-eye spy. Now let me introduce you to another friend. Buffoon, come on down!" She turned a tiki into Tiki Buffoon. Glitter Chip and Glitter Sugar decided to take him down.

*Sherwood Smash!*

*Bedtime Bling!*

Unfortunately, Tiki Bufoon resisted both attacks. Kaylani watched and remembered when she was deceived by Stevie's lies. Everyone pelted her with cake and made fun of her for no reason. Then she knew that Stevie was jealous of Kaylani's natural beauty. "Hold up you, tiki terror!" shouted Kaylani. "I know what it's like to be deceived by appearances. I rather have friends who are beautiful, INSIDE AND OUT!"

Green Glitter flew all around Kaylani, meaning that she was a Glitter Force member.

"I finally found you!" Candy shouted as she flew up. "The third Glitter Force member!"

"But why me?" asked Kaylani

"Because you're careful about who you trust, Kaylani," Candy explained. "You can see the inner beauty of everyone who cares about others first. To become Glitter Snickerdoodle, insert the Glitter Charm and say 'Glitter Force Makeover'."

*Glitter Force Makeover*

*Cinnamon Sweeps, and Sugary Strikes, I'm Glitter Snickerdoodle.*

"Glitter Snickerdoodle," Salma said. "It suits her."

Glitter Snickerdoodle opened her eyes and see that she's wearing a green Glitter Force outfit. "THIS IS SOOO CUTE!" she shouted. "And it's green! I love green!"

"Tiki Buffoon at three o'clock!" shouted Candy as Tiki Buffon started to smash her.

*Doodle Dynamite!*

Tiki Buffoon turned into a rattle charm and everything turned back to normal, including the Glitter Force. Stevie was looking at a creepy tiki when Flynn came up to her. "Listen here, Stevie," he said. "The entire karaoke bar is annoyed by your horrible singing. I'm gonna have to ask you to leave."

"No," Stevie replied, "not until they honestly admit that I'm pretty."

"I'm afraid you're, like, second best, Stevie," said Wren.

From her purse, she got out a chart on natural beauty between her, Salma, Kaylani, and Stevie, which she did after dance class yesterday.

Beauty Scale

*Salma- 70%*

*Wren- 75%*

*Kaylani- 100%*

*Stevie- 60%*

"This can't be right," Stevie growled. "I'm supposed to be prettier than you losers."

Angered and fed up, they kicked Stevie out of the karaoke bar and banned her for the rest of the month.

**XxoxX**

Inside, Flynn just got a call from his Uncle Damian. "I got this, girls," he said as he took the phone.

In the kitchen, the three girls decided to test out the rattle Glitter Charm. Out of the charm came two baby rattles, one blue and one pink. Candy knew specifically why two rattles came out instead of one.

"Hey, Kay!" shouted Flynn and Candy hid behind the sprinkles. "Aunt Jolene had her babies. It's a boy and a girl."

"Twins," Kaylani replied. "Good thing we found these rattles."

"They're going to name them John and Marie," Flynn replied.

"After the author of 'Beauty and the Beast', Jeanne-Marie Leprince de Beaumont," recalled Kaylani. "Aunt Jolene knew how much I loved that story as a kid."

"And that's not all," replied Flynn. "Thanks to your friend Salma's singing, we finally got customers back in."

"Hey," replied Salma. "I was in my old school's choir, so I had to use it somehow."

Flynn was so proud of Salma and Wren for getting rid of Stevie's terrible singing, he decided to give them the Mauna Loa Sundae, which was the ultimate ice cream order, and free.

"I wish I had a Mauna Loa Sundae," Candy whispered to herself.

Kaylani knew that she had to think of others first, so with a little magic while Flynn wasn't looking, she summoned a plate of snickerdoodles onto the table and a Mauna Loa Sundae for Candy to eat.

"Come on," Flynn stated as he was carrying a giant sundae with coconut sheds, rainbow sprinkles super hot fudge, and pineapples. "I hate seeing good sundaes go to waste."

Then the three girls took off to eat the Mauna Loa Sundae.

**The End.**

**Chapter 13: Emelia, Let Down Your Hair**

The girls were attending school at Madame D'Aulnoy High, named after the French fairytale author. As they were entering the school library, Kaylani got out a book of Swan Lake that she was supposed to return.

"I forgot to tell you, Kaylani," whispered Candy from her backpack, "You hold the power of Odette from 'Swan Lake'."

"Really?" asked Kaylani. "I saw El Cisne 200 times in my life."

"That's a Mexican variant of 'Swan Lake'," Emelia replied from a distance. "I saw the bilingual bonus." Her hair was in braids. She had on an orange sweater, a dark-orange skirt, light-orange stockings, and dark-orange mary janes.

"We were just talking about different variants of Swan Lake," Kaylani exaggerated.

Salma and Wren both hate lying, but played along to avoid suspicion. "Yeah," replied Salma. "We were all wondering if you could join us after dance class for a little song time at the karaoke bar."

"Ooh," replied Emelia. "I can't. I got some studying to do for our math test."

"That's the problem, baby," Wren replied. "Ever since we started high school a year ago, you've been studying all the time and not spending much time out of it."

"I have to get a good grade if I want to go to Stanford," Emelia replied back.

Salma began to wonder how long have they'd been friends. "This whole thing started 5 years ago," Kaylani replied. "I moved into Phoenix after Uncle Damian was having financial troubles. Afterward, I got humiliated at Stevie's birthday party, like you already know. Wren and Em both rushed up to me and gave them the gifts that were supposed to be for Stevie."

"And that day on," Wren finished, "the three of us vowed to be freaky friends forever."

"Make that four!" shouted Mayve from behind. She had black pigtails, a yellow bow, a tan puffy blouse, a medium yellow skirt, yellow socks, and medium yellow loafers. She was also carrying Emelia's lunch box, which had the characters from "Frozen" on it.

"Mayve" asked Emelia, "what are you doing here?"

"You forgot your lunch again," Mayve explained. "You always do that whenever you have a big test coming up. Do you still have the unicorn painting and telescope?" she asked Kaylani. "Do ya, PLEASE TELL ME!"

"I have," Kaylani replied. "I needed to remind myself of the magic of friendship and that it's a big world out there."

"Mayve," Emelia replied, "you better get to Hans Christian Anderson Middle School before Mr. Haward catches you being late for class again."

"You're right," Mayve said to her sister. "I don't wanna get in trouble. See ya at dance class, sis." Then she ran off.

"Speaking of being late," replied Salma, "we should get to our classes before we get detention."

**XxoxX**

Meanwhile, on their ship, Foxander was enjoying his platter of cheese and crackers and said, "This is gouda."

While he was munching on the space gouda, Francis came in seeing Foxander making a mess with the space cheese. "Clean this mess up!" he shouted. "We got some Buffoons to bundle!"

"Looks like you got a cold shoulder," replied Foxander.

"Whatever," growled Francis. "Just go to Earth and absorb the fears."

**XxoxX**

After school, Emelia was starting to check out some books at the library when she saw a mysterious fox going around the school robot. She followed the robot and saw that the fox turned into Foxander. Just then he made a loud howl, which made the students cower.

"What if I don't get an A on my assignment on 'Romeo and Juliet'?" asked a student in fear.

"I know I'm going to get a bad grade," said another. "I just know it."

**XxoxX**

By their lockers, Salma, Wren, and Kaylani could sense that something was wrong at the library. They rushed in to see the fiendish fox howling up a hurricane of fear. He turned his head and was delighted to see the Glitter Force in person. "I'm Foxander," he greeted. "I'm really sneaky."

"So you're the cause of the crazy fox howl," said Kaylani.

"That's right," replied Foxander. "A real scream is what you mean. And here's another screamy scare. Buffoon, come on down!" He turned a book into a Book Buffoon.

"Time to read a chapter of 'The Taming Of The Screw'," said Salma.

*Glitter Force Makeover*

*Break it down with the heart of a hero! I'm Glitter Chip!*

*Spice is nice, and sweetness is precise! I'm Glitter Sugar!*

*Cinnamon sweeps, and sugary strikes! I'm Glitter Snickerdoodle!*

"The Glitter Force," Emelia said. "I can't believe this." She was surprised that her friends were involved in the whole Glitter Force program.

One by one, the Glitter Force did their attacks on the monster.

*Sherwood Smash*

*Bedtime Bling*

*Doodle Dynamite*

Unfortunately, Book Buffoon blocked the three attacks.

"You know something?" Emelia said. "I don't mind hanging out with friends now and again. There's more to life than just work."

The Buffoon staired and was about to punch her when Emelia said, "The cheers never bothered me anyway!" An aura of orange glitter swarm all around her, this meant that Emelia was a Glitter Force member.

"Welcome to the S.S. Glitter Force," said Candy.

"Why am I chosen?" asked Emelia.

"Because you know that going to school is an important thing in a young person's life," Candy explained, "and you always make time for your sister and your friends."

"Keeping a promise can be tough," Emelia replied, "but I do the best I can."

"Now here's your gift," Candy said as she gave the compact to Emelia. "A Glitter Compact. Place your charm in there and say 'Glitter Force Makeover'."

*Glitter Force Makeover*

*A ball of colorful sugar and icy stare! I'm Glitter Macaroon!*

Glitter Macaroon opened her eyes to see that she was wearing an orange frilly outfit.

"You wield the power of Elsa," replied Candy, "calm and neat and willing to let it go."

"But why am I wearing orange?" Emelia asked as she froze. "Unless the orange reminded me of that fairytale 'The Citrus Snow'."

"That's right," replied Candy. "The fairytale where it snowed orange and helped cured a sick peasant whom the princess loved very much."

"You guys are making me lovesick!" shouted Foxander. "Give them a cure of cruelty, Buffoon!"

The Buffoon started to attack. "Can't hold it back anymore," said Glitter Macaroon.

*Macarron Rumble.*

The Book Buffoon suddenly turned into a pie Glitter Charm.

"That's part of being in the Glitter Force, Em!" shouted Candy.

"Darn," replied Foxander. "It's the last page of that book, but no worries. I'll come back for you as easy as pie." After Foxander left, everything changed back to normal. The librarian saw the "Taming of the Shrew" book and placed it back in the Shakespeare section.

"Emelia!" shouted Mayve from a distance. "I saw the whole thing. That was amazing that you finally got back to helping Wren and Kay."

"Please don't say anything of this to Mom and Dad," said Emelia. "They would just nag to me about the whole 'leave the crazy to the police' thing."

"Of course not," Mayve replied. "Plus, Mom needs some help with an injured patient who just broke his arm during basketball practice."

**XxoxX**

At the nurse's office, a slightly pudgy African-American woman was tending to a caucasian basketball player with a broken arm. "This is what happens when you don't get enough sleep, Colton," she said to him. "You end up getting hurt and during the week before the big game."

Outside the nursing room, Emelia could see her nursing Colton to health. "Looks like Colton was up late watching basketball games," Emelia said. "Maybe we should use the pie charm for this."

After Emelia inserted the charm, seven pies came out. Salma got a blueberry pie, Wren got a strawberry pie, Kaylani got an apple, Emelia got a peach pie, Mayve got a lemon custard, and on the table were a key lime pie and a pumpkin pie. The nurse started to smell the pies from the room and was amazed that someone left it there. She thought that Emelia and Mayve made them and was pleased.

"Look at all these pies," Nurse Cummins said. "This gift is perfect."

Emelia was okay that her mom wanted to give a pie to Colton. "I know these are junk food, and Principal Sanda doesn't allow food in the nurse's office," Nurse Cummins continued, "But Colton needs to get better"

"And there's a key lime pie for you," Mayve said, "I know how much you love key lime pie."

"Thanks, Mayve" replied Nurse Cummins, "Your father is going to be working late, so its dessert for dinner night."

"Dessert for dinner night" Salma replied, "That's unusual."

"It gets us with our inner child" Mayve explained as she took a bite of the pie.

After Nurse Cummins left, Emelia summoned a plate of macaroons for Candy to eat, all with Glitter Force colors on them.

**The End.**

**Chapter 14: Little Mayve, Little Mayve, Let Her In**

At Madame D'Aulnoy High, Salma, Wren, Kaylani, and Emelia were getting out of class and heading towards their lockers.

"Hey, losers," Stevie said as she walked up. "What are you going to do today? The Dork Dungeon?"

"No," corrected Emelia. "We're going to do our homework at a library."

"Homework is for hillbillies," growled Stevie. "I always purposefully turn mine late. It gives me more time to work on my brilliant dancing, which you're jealous of."

"But, like, don't you have detention for not turning in your homework again?" Wren said. "You should move along before the principal dude catches you missing attendance."

"Whatever," growled Stevie as she walked off to detention.

"We should get to Brothers Grimm Elm," suggested Emelia. "Mayve does a student-teacher job there."

"What does she do?" asked Salma.

"She looks after the children whose parents come to work late," explained Kaylani. "All they look so cute with their little cheeks and their cartoon character tees."

"Don't they have extracurricular activities?" asked Salma in confusion.

"Only if they can afford them," answered Emelia. "These kids are from the poor streets of Phoenix."

"It must be hard," Salma replied. "Fernando grew up in a poor neighborhood. My dad was getting some cheap groceries there when I first met him at age 8. Papa said I shouldn't talk to strangers, but his mother and father were in need of jobs, the laundromat they worked for was on fire, and the unemployment offices were packed."

Emelia looked at her watch to see that she was late. "Look at the time," she replied. "When Mayve doesn't like waiting, she goes completely crazy whenever she waits."

**XxoxX**

But at the library, Mayve was quietly reading "The Three Little Pigs" when her father came up. He was middle-aged, had glasses, wore a blue polo shirt, grey khakis, and a black loafer. She turned her head to see her father. "Daddy!" she shouted as she hugged her father. "Sorry. I know libraries are supposed to be quiet, but I get jumpy when I see you after school."

"I know," Mr. Cummins replied as Mayve sat back down. "I'm gonna go use the little teacher's room. Get ready for when the kids come."

"I will, Dad," replied Mayve. Little did she know, Francis Fable was at the library, and he used his amulet to absorb the fear out of all the patrons at the library.

"I don't know if I could check out this book," cried an elementary student. "It's too scary."

"I don't know if I'll return mine on time," said another student.

Francis was finally getting it. "I've never won one Emmy," he smiled, "but this is better than a trophy."

Mayve noticed the strange behavior of the students and decided to get a guard to see what was going on. As she was about to leave, she bumped straight into her sister. "Em" she said, "you're never gonna believe this. Everyone in the library has been acting crazy. They act like a couple of cowards. I'm getting a guard."

"No need," replied Salma. "This is all the Fable Fears."

"That's right, young lady," Francis said as he came out. "I've been helping my new Fable Friends do their dirty work."

"Francis Fable," said Salma. "We finally meet. I've seen you on TV. The third host of 'Ever After Imagination'. From 1990 to 2020, you told the most amazing stories, but I never thought that you would get angry after you got pulled from your show."

"Yeah," Wren replied. "Like, you're crashing our storytime preparations without an invite, you downer drag!"

Francis felt offended by Wren's insult. "Buffoon, come on down!" he shouted. He turned a pig drawing into a Pig Buffoon.

"This is just like the first battle with Glitter Peace," recalled Candy. "Come on, Glitter Force. Start making bacon out of that monster."

*Glitter Force Makeover*

*Break it down with the heart of a hero! I'm Glitter Chip!*

*Spice is nice and sweetness is precise! I'm Glitter Sugar!*

*Cinnamon sweeps and sugary strikes! I'm Glitter Snickerdoodle!*

*A ball of colorful sugar and icy stare! I'm Glitter Macaroon!*

"You're even cuter up close," Mayve cooed. "This is better than getting a guard."

The four Glitter Force warriors got ready to fight back Pig Buffoon with their attacks.

*Sherwood Smash*

*Bedtime Bling*

*Doodle Dynamite*

*Macaroon Rumble*

Unfortunately, they missed the attacks and were helpless. "Heroes don't act helpless," Mayve replied. "They get up and fight. I believe in you guys, every day."

A yellow aura of glitter surrounded Mayve. "Can this be?" she asked. "Am I a Glitter Force?"

"You are, Mayve" declared Candy as she came up to Mayve.

"But why me?" asked Mayve.

"The smallest things make a big difference every day," Candy explained, "like how you help your dad look after the children. Place your charm in the compact and say 'Glitter Force Makeover'."

*Glitter Force Makeover*

*A spot of justice and a soothing surprise! I'm Glitter Biscuit!*

"Finally!" shouted Candy. "All five members of the Glitter Force Sprinkle Spark are here!"

"A Spot of Justice and a Soothing Surprise," Salma said. "Reminds me of tea time in England. Back in Bogota, we had some British performers there."

Glitter Biscuit opened her eyes to see that she was wearing a yellow frilly outfit. "For The First Time In Forever, I'm A Glitter Force!" Mayve exclaimed as she covered her mouth. "I sound just like Princess Anna from 'Frozen'."

"That's because you wield the power of Anna," replied Candy, "the younger hyper sister. Now use your Biscuit Blaze to take down the Buffoon."

*Biscuit Blaze*

The Pig Buffoon turned into a lollipop charm. "Now that you're all together," said Candy, "time for the roll call."

"I just love roll calls!" shouted Mayve.

*Break it down with the heart of a hero! I'm Glitter Chip!*

*Spice is nice and sweetness is precise! I'm Glitter Sugar!*

*Cinnamon sweeps and sugary strikes! I'm Glitter Snickerdoodle!*

*A ball of colorful sugar and icy stare! I'm Glitter Macaroon!*

*A spot of justice and a soothing surprise! I'm Glitter Biscuit!*

*Time to blaze away to a happy ending!*

*Shinning Bright, here comes the Glitter Force Sprinkle Spark!*

"Enough!" shouted Francis. "I'll get you little candy-coated princesses for this!"

After Francis left, everything turned back to normal. The librarian noticed that the pig drawing was missing a thumbtack, so she placed a new one up. Mayve was relieved, because they didn't want anyone to know about the aliens, especially her father. Then she picked up the charm. "A lollipop charm" she whispered. "I wanna try it."

Luckily, they were the only ones there besides the librarian, who was too busy putting away books. With one insert, the charm summoned a big bag of lollipops. Salma got out a blue raspberry lollipop, Wren got a strawberry lollipop, Kaylani got out a green apple lollipop, Emelia got an orange lollipop and Mayve got out a banana lollipop. Then she knew what to do with the rest of them.

**XxoxX**

Later, Mayve was reading the Three Little Pigs to the little ones. "And the pig said, 'Not by the hair of my chiny chin chin," Mayve read. "And what did the Big Bad Wolf say?"

"Then I'll huff, and I'll puff, and I'll blow your house down!" shouted the kids.

In a corner, Salma, Wren, Kaylani, and Emelia were finishing their homework and observing Mayve entertaining the kids.

"Since you kids were so well behaved during storytime," Mayve finished, "I'm giving you all free lollipops." As she was giving them lollipops, her father came in.

"Sorry I'm late," said Mr. Cummins. "The principal asked me to help him find his car keys. It turns out they were in his lunchbox and has left them while getting ready for lunch earlier today."

"That's fine dad" replied Mayve as she handed out another lollipop.

"Where did you get the lollipops," asked Mr. Cummins, "You know the library doesn't allow food."

"Don't worry" Mayve replied, "The kids eating them outside and a friend of mine gave them to me."

She turned her head to see Candy eating a cherry lollipop that was on the ground.

**The End.**
