Fox Necklace
Chapter 5 – Honey and Stevie



Honey, Whimsy, and Stevie landed near the Chapel. "The Rose was a mistake.....please don't get angry....." said Stevie.

Before Honey could respond, Stevie pushed on.  “When I was young, way before I had met you, I came across an infant in the forest.  She was all dressed up in this little monkey suit, she looked

absolutely adorable.  Anyway, although she was so tiny, she could already speak more fluently than I could.  She asked me if I could help her find her dog.  Well, I had been just looking for something to do so I didn’t mind one bit.

Loki HATED dogs, so he sure knew how to track them down.  We found the pup in no time.  Adorable little thing, and just so rambunctious and….well, happy.  Which is funny, because the dogs name was happy.  


“Stevie, you are getting off topic…” interrupted an anxious Honey. 

Honey noticed a gorgeous strand of beautiful burgundy hand-woven yarn hanging from a thorn bush about a yard in front of them.  Stevie had been talking but Honey had tuned him out.  “Stevie, they went this way,” said Honey as she pulled the yarn from the bush.



Stevie HATED it when Honey tuned 


him out.  But he had the same problem 


with her, so I guess it was all fair.  “You 


are right…..Lucy really never does plan 


ahead does she?”

“You are right about that….but you are getting off topic 


again….” responded Honey. 

“I bring it up because I have spotted the footprints of a 

woman wearing heels…..either that or there is an animal out 

there with some very interesting feet,” joked Stevie.

Honey laughed.  As she 

was about to respond they 

both turned their heads 

toward the yipping coming 

from behind 

them.  The foxes made it!

too Honey and snapping at each other, while Scout made 

doe eyes at Stevie and Djali just scampered around like a 

nut.  Whimsy gave Honey a push as if to say, “Let’s get 

going and not forget why we are here!”



Meanwhile…

Lucy and Salome were just about to enter the garden.

Salome had taken the key from Lucy, shoved it into the 

lock, and then just before she turned the key a loud a angry 

voice of a woman began to sound itself inside there heads....

"You better think twice before turning that key....remember what I did to Repunzel!"

Salome and Lucy looked at each other and shrugged. "Here goes," said Salome as she turned the key.

The garden was just full of exotic plants that neither of the girls had ever seen. Not only were the plants strange and exotic, but so were the insects and the birds. All of them incredibly beautiful, but also fantastically foreign.

Salome's eyes immediately turned toward a funny looking cherry tree. "That is what you have been looking for all this time. These cherries are what turned your ever so precious Charmy into a bug munching amphibian," said Salome.

"What good is knowing what turned him into a frog? I need to know what will turn him back!" replied Lucy.

Salome picked one of the cherries right off of the tree. "Sometimes the causes of our problems are also the solutions. If you can get that frog of yours to eat this cherry, he will turn right back into whatever he was before he ate the cherry. I can promise change, not improvement," joked Salome.

"For your information, he doesn't need any improvement! Also, how do I know that you are telling the truth? For all I know, these cherries could turn him into something worse.....perhaps an worm or an ameoba! That would be TRULY terrible," said Lulu.

"Well, the only way to find out if it works is to try it out on yourself," said Salome.

Lucy knew that Salome might be evil, she may even be under the influence of the Wicked Queen. But what choice did she have? She didn't want to 'test' Charmy when she found him, so maybe the solution was to try it out on herself. If what Salome said was true, then she could turn right back.

Lucy picked on of the cherries, studied it for a moment, and then said "What the heck?" as she tossed it into her mouth. Just then, the door to the garden slammed shut.

"Who dares disturb my garden?" said the voice of an old woman...........

  1. LOL...I can't believe how cute this is. It certainly keeps me coming back for more!

    The shop items are darling as well.

    I bought the Fairy Tales book from 1946. I collect stuff made around the year I was born.

    As I've remarked before: eagerly awaiting the next chapter!
