The two of us climbed up to the top and opened the gates to toy land."Welcome princess Erika to your new home." The Nutcracker Prince said as a rag do...l waved to me and a tin soldier asked me for a dance.***When the sun rose up the next morning, my father called out my name in his search for me. He and my mother searched the whole castle in vain. They asked all of their fellow servants and even asked Princess Sandra, Queen Lesley and King Ken about my absence. None of them had seen me.As. It was, of course, the very shell I'd found during a similar beach excursion in the Florida Keys, at a much earlier point in our relationship. In the two years that had passed since then, I'd kept the shell in my possession, and taken great pains to protect it from harm.I squeezed out a blob of sunscreen into my right hand, and began to work it into the back of my beloved as she lay prone on the blanket. With her thus distracted, I took the shell in my left hand, and gently placed it at a point. "Yes!" Bill hissed. "It looks like they are down to five men." He looked over at the early warning radio and said,"I think you can turn that off now. It has done its job." I don't know if you can count the one in the SUV as being able to fight," Cherie said as she switched off the radio.Bill looked back just in time to see the man fall to his knees in the middle of the road and commence emptying his stomach. Jones motioned his remaining men forward with him until they reached the kneeling man.. How could Enchantra be so casual about the whole situation? It didn’t make sense, but he didn’t want to dwell on it. Together they gathered their things and left.A few days later, Bert received a copy of their performance. While he saw mistakes he made, Enchantra was spot-on perfect. Then it was time for the trick where she lost her costume and he couldn’t understand it. He was sure she was wearing it when she emerged from the box and it wasn’t anywhere to be seen until after it reappeared on.
