The Smurflings took off running as Jokey proceeds to chase them, "Split up!" cried Snappy.

All four smurflings split up and went in 4 different directions, Jokey though remains locked on at Nat due to the paint stain on his leg. Nat tried his best to loose Jokey, but he remains persistent in chasing him. Rather than to cause more trouble than they've already made, the Smurflings ran straight into the woods in an effort to loose him. Since Nat was on the focus of Jokey's mind at the moment, the smurfling tried to ditch him by jumping into the Smurf River.

When Jokey reached the edge of the river, Nat seemed to have all but vanished. "He's gone!" cried Jokey, "Where did he go?"

Realizing that Nat was hiding in the water, Jokey decided to give him space and wait for him to come out. He rushed into the vegetation and hide and wait for Nat to come out, what he didn't know was that the Smurf River carried Nat further down stream, the smurfling managed to break to the surface and swim back to shore without alerting Jokey.

Nat got back up to his feet and heads back home, he soon met up with the rest of the smurflings who were regrouping along the way. "Lost him," said Nat, "Should we tell Papa Smurf on what we did, we'll might get the trouble against us reduced?"

"Think about it," said Snappy, "How much trouble did Jokey caused for everybody?"

"A lot." said Slouchy.

"He never got punished by Papa Smurf," claims Snappy, "He never got punished by anybody."

"Well they kicked him out of the village," noted Nat, "Once."

"I just don't understand how this is irrelevant for us." said Sassette.

"I don't see anyway we could get out of this mess guys," said Slouchy, "Let's just turn ourselves in."

"Assuming we have a plan to reduce the punishment against us," said Snappy, "I am not cleaning Jokey's house after what HE did to us."

"Let's just go to Papa Smurf," said Nat, "And explain what we did before Jokey tells him, the best we can hope for is Papa Smurf was pranked by Jokey before hand."

"Whats the chance of that happening?" asked Snappy.

"Slim."

"Close enough," said Snappy, "Lets do it."

The Smurflings head back to the Smurf Village and head towards Papa Smurf's house, there they found the village leader covered in soot and ash and the remains of a present bomb sitting at the edge of the room. This was probably the Smurflng's lucky day, best now or never.

They opened the door to Papa Smurf's house and stepped inside where the leader was brushing off the soot from his pants, he turned and saw the Smurflings approached him, "What's wrong my Smurflings?" he asked.

The Smurflings told Papa Smurf everything, every detail and every action they had made on their part. With Jokey being Jokey, Papa Smurf don't know what to do on his part. "Don't worry my little smurflings," he said, "Everything will be fine. Besides, Brainy was trying to do something similar to him. I'll see what would be done, just don't worry."

"Thanks Papa Smurf." said Snappy.

The Smurflings soon left and head back to Smurfette's house, "See guys," said Nat, "Nothing to it."

"You think Jokey would react negatively from Papa Smurf's decision?" asked Sassette.

"Not sure what he'll think," said Snappy, "He'll probably... Jokey's nearby, hide!"

The Smurflings hid behind a wheelbarrow as Jokey comes passing by, his face shows that his day was officially ruined. "On the bright side," said Jokey, "I had my house painted, I just hope this paint comes off though."

It will eventually come off, though I'll might take a week or two to do so. As Jokey walks back to his house, the Smurflings sneaked by and rushed over to Smurfette's house where they ran inside and shut the door behind them.

THE END!
