Chapter 8

  Hildy flew down to the 7d, and grabbed them with her magic. 

 "Gotcha you wretched dwarfs!" She smiled, before forcing them back into the house. 

 "Got any smart ideas Doc?" Grumpy hissed. 

 "Nope, none, nothing..." 

 "Well that's just great...." 

 Bashful was sitting by the window when he saw his friends tied up in magic. He yowled, and ran straight towards them. 

 He didn't get very far though, because Hildy set the spell to the 6d couldn't move, and grabbed him.  

 "Not so fast, kitty!" She cackled. 

 Grim then came in. "Nice work Hildy Wildy!" He smiled goofily. 

 "Thank you Grimmy Wimmy." 

 "Nosy nosy nosy!" 

 Grumpy looked like he was about to be sick. "Yuck..." 

 Happy smiled. "Its actually kind of cute how much they love each other," he said with a smile. 

 Grumpy stared at his smiling companion with a look of shock and disgust. "You have WAY to many problems...." 

  "Lets celebrate with fireworks!" Grim smiled, before taking out his wand.  

  Hildys smile vanished. "Grim, don't you DARE use fireworks in the house..." 

 But it was too late, Grim had set off the magics, and the fireworks blew up the spell that was keeping the 6d hostage. 

 "GET THE WITCH!" Sneezy yelled. 

And the 6d started running towards Hildy and Grim. 

 "GRIMWALD!!!!!" The British witch yelled at her now scared husband. 

 "RUN!" Grim screamed, before he and Hildy started running in the house to try and escape the vengeful dwarfs. 

 They ran EVERYWHERE, with the 6d on their tails, that is, if they had tails. 

 "Get back here you schemey Glooms!" Sneezy yelled, before sending a blasting sneeze in their direction. 

 The glooms dodged the attack, but it hit a shelf of potions, causing them to fall and break on the floor. 

 Hildy screamed in anger, but kept on running. 

 They turned a corner, and ran upstairs. 

 Dopey ran up to the glooms, and bit and pulled on Grim's waistcoat.  

 "AH! This dwarf is biting my coat!" The blue haired warlock freaked. 

  Hildy then started kicking Dopey. "GET OFF OF MY HUBBY!" 

 Dopey growled angrily, but soon lost grip on the coat, and fell backwards onto his fellow dwarfs. 

 "HAH!" Hildy said, but the falling dwarfs his a bookshelf, causing all of its contents to fall off.  

 That didn't stop the 6d though, because they followed the Glooms upstairs. 

 "QUICK! IN THE BEDROOM!" Hildy screamed. 

 When they go into the bedroom, they locked the door. 

 "Don't worry fella's I've got this." Doc said, before using one of his keys to unlocks the door. 

 "DO YOU DWARFS EVER GIVE UP?!" Hildy screamed, before pushing past them to go back downstairs.  Her husband followed suit. 

 But the 6d NEVER gave up, and followed them some more. 

 They reached the kitchen, and The Glooms found they were in a dead end. Bashful was still being grabbed by Hildy, but he was too dizzy from the Glooms running to do anything. 

 "Tackle her!" Doc commanded. 

 The 6d gathered around Hildy, and tackled her. They fought in a dust pile, trying to get Bashful back from the Glooms clutches. In the process, they hit all sorts of cupboards and dishes, causing them to ALSO fall and break on impact. 

 The cottage was now a mess! 

 When Hildy escaped from the tackled, she saw the image of her house, and screamed. 

  "My house!!!!" Hildy whined, before realizing again she could use magic, and again, grabbed the 6d with her wand. 

 "Darn it! She got us again!" Sleepy yelled, before falling asleep. 

 "Wow, too much excitement for this guy..." Grumpy groaned. 

 Hildy then held Bashful super tight, making it harder for him to breath. 

 "Give up now 7d! Give me the kingdom, or your little friend will be stuck in my house, FOREVER!" 

 Everyone in the room gasped. 

 "You wouldn't!" Sneezy exclaimed. 

 "I would!" Hildy smirked. 

 Bashful was on the verge of tears. He started mewing sadly. 

 "Oh Hildy, youre making him cry..." Grim told his wife. 

 Hildy just rolled her eyes. 

 "You wont get away with this! You WONT get the kingdom, and you WON'T keep our friend!" Grumpy yelled. 

 "But we might have too..." Doc replied sadly. 

 Grumpy starred at Doc in shock, while Hildy started squealing in joy. 

 "What do you mean! They CAN'T have the kingdom!" Grumpy retorted in protest. 

 "We have no choice, the Queen wont keep her kingdom at the risk of losing someone she cares about..." Doc sighed. 

 "And can't lose someone who cares REALLY deeply for her, I mean, he has that crush on her and all." Happy smiled, but it was a sad smiled. 

 Bashful blushed a little, but then started to feel something icky.... 

 The 6d continued to discuss the problem for a minute or two. 

 Hildy was getting impatient. "Okay, I want my verdict! Can I have the kingdom?!" 

 The 6d looked at each other, and sighed. 

 "Okay Hildy, you can have...." 

 Hildy had started smiling, she was about to get what she always wanted! Being ruler of Jollywood! 

 But, right before Doc could finish his answer, Bashful started retching. 

  The purple witch stared at the cat in her arms in disgust. "Uh, Grim....what is he doing?" She started to screech. 

 Grim also had no clue what the shy cat was doing. "I have no clue my love. 

 Bashful continued retching, sounding like he was sick. 

 "He's having a hairball Hildy Gloom..." Doc smirked. 

 Hildy starred at Doc, then at Bashful. She screamed. "EWWW! WHAT!!!!" In the process, she dropped her wand, uncasting the freeze spell on the 6d. 

 "Yeah, and he'll let out a stinky hairball in the house." Grumpy added.  

 This might be a plan. 

 "EWWWWWW!!!!!!!" Hildy screamed, before trying to run outside. But in the process, she and Bashful got shocked. 

 "Hildy!" Grim said in fear and concern. 

 "But you forbid him from going outside, so I guess you're going to have a house FULL of hairballs." Happy laughed. 

 Hildy groaned, and grabbed her wand.  "ALRIGHT! I uncast this spell, so this cat is free to roam, just as long as he doesn't stink up my home."  

 The spell was casted, and Hildy ran outside, with Bashful still retching in her arms. She dropped him on the ground, and after a minute, he hacked up a disgusting hairball. 

 "gross Gross GROSS!" Hildy shrieked. 

 Sneezy then sneezed, before saying, "Well, if you keep him as a cat, this is going to happen every single day. 

 That seemed to hit Hildy.  

 "A DISGUSTING ball of hacked up hair....EVERY single day......" She freaked out. 

 "Yup, plus you'll need to clean it up." Doc added. 

 The wicked witch cried, before taking out her wand. "Okay, I've had enough of you being a cat! So turn back into a dwarf, no more the enemy of a rat!" She then hit the spell onto Bashful. 

 And in a flash, Bashful was turned back into his regular, normal self. 

 When Bashful opened his eyes, he saw that his hands were...well, hands again! 

 "I'm....I'm a dwarf again!" He cheered. 

 "Yip-yip-yooray!!!" The 7d all cheered together. 

But Hildy wasn't going to end their, she grabbed Bashful again. 

 "The deal still stand though! Give me the kingdom, or lose your friend!" 

The dwarfs looked at each other, and at Bashful, before smiling.   "Well Hildy, did you know the pickle that was in you magical smoothie is about 100 years old?" 

  Hildy looked at Doc in disbelief. "WHAT?!?!" 

 "You heard him, that pickle was OLD!" Happy chuckled. 

 Hildy was about to retort, when she felt a bit sick to her stomach. She dropped Bashful, and ran into the house. 

 "DARN IT DARN IT DARN IT!!!!" Hildy yelled, before locking herself in the bathroom. Grim waited for her, for he actually hadn't drank any of the smoothie. 

 "WHY MUST THIS HAPPEN TO ME!!!!" Hildy cried. 

 "Maybe next time Hildy wildy..." Grim soothed from outside the bathroom. 

 Hildy groaned in response. 

 The 7d ran away while they could, and finally reached the cottage, where they were safe and sound.
