There is a knock at the door. Cinder looks to Holly Foster as she turns to open the door.
"My how you've grown since last I saw you!"
It was Denny, one of the orphans who had been fortunate enough to be adopted a few years back.
Cinder's eyes got wide as he saw his old chum walking through the door.
"Well be, I didn't think I'd ever set eyes on you again!"
"Yeah I was in town on some personal business and I wanted to come by and see you guys. How's Fin?"
"Ask him yourself, he's sleeping in the next room."
"I figured you'd be gone from here by now."
"Well, to tell you the truth, I was leaving today, I've got somethings I want to check on myself."
"You get in here the both of you, I want to feed you a good home cooked meal before the two of you go off gallivanting across the country in search for a pipe dream."
"Oh ma, some things never change I see,"
Denny said as he pulled off his jacket and sit at the kitchen table. Cinder also joined him at the table for the two of them to talk and carry on about old times.
They were laughing and joking and even had Holly cracking up. They were loud with their laughing and it awakened Fin, who had been fast asleep in the next room. The laughter attracted him to the room.
"Hey what's going on in here? He looked at the table and saw his old friend Denny. Denny and Fin had been like two peas in a pod when Denny lived at the home. Fin was crushed when Denny had gotten adopted a few years back. Holly left the room to let the three boys discuss the direction their lives had been and were going.
"So, Denny, you still able to see the future like you used to be able to?"
"Better than ever, that's why I'm here to be honest with you. A bout a month ago I started having visions of the future and you guys were in it. We were all on a mission to find our birth parents. I know where I can find mine but I am afraid to go by myself for fear my father will reject me."
"You know who your father is already."
"Yeah,he's a tubby little cubby named Winnie the Pooh. He's located in Canada at the hundred acre woods. I'm going there but I wanted to take you with me
Fin, you have the skills of guidance you will never get us lost. and Cinder you have the ability to read minds so you can tell me if my birth father, Pooh, is going to reject me. for some reason I saw a vision of him clearly but I'm not able to determine whether or not we'll get along yet."
Fin jumped up from the table and ran to Denny, hugging his neck. "I would be so glad to go with you and show you the way I can guide you I have a great internal guidance system."
"Yeah, I'll go to, and then after, you accompany me to the North Pole to see my old man Chris Kringle"
"Sure, the three of us will make it a trip."
"What about Diamond?" Finn gasped.
Yeah, she'll want to see Cupid, after all she's wanted to meet him for a long time. We all need to go together to find all of our parents. Besides we can sure use her fire starting ability in case we run in to some kind of trouble."
Cinder began yelling for Diamond to come down stairs from the two story home in which they all lived. In no time she came down the stairs complaining...
"What the", she stopped when she saw Denny was there. "What are you doing back here boy, or should I say man, you've really shaped up dude."
"Hello Diamond", Denny went and hugged her neck and kissed her on the lips in a sisterly type of way.
"Listen Diamond we're going to go on a voyage to find our birth parents, I'm going to meet my ole man Winnine the Pooh, They're going to go see the old Chris Kringle, what if you come with us and we seek out your own ole man, Cupid." said Denny
"Yeah, we can use your protection along the way, you know, if any one messes with us you do your little magic with the fire starting."
At that moment Holly came in to the kitchen from the next room.
"What are you kids doing? are you plotting to go off and leave me, all of you.
Denny hugged Holly and thanked her for the nice meal she provided and then...
