Ella carried Barnabus on her shoulder, walking down to the edge of the forbidden forest. Though it was a beautiful spring day, she couldn't shake the uncomfortable feeling that being so close to a forest full of scary creatures was giving her.

Spotting Professor Williamson, she smiled. "Hi Professor, hope you're well!" Then she walked rather sadly over to where she would have to return Barnabus, her little buddy.

"Okay Barnabus, you have to stay with the other puffs from now on." She said, placing the little yellow fluff ball into the enclosure. "Try to remember all the great times we had together cause-" *Sniff* "we had a lot of fun. I'm going to miss you, Barny! Keep trying to refrain from eating boogers, you're making good progress." With that, Ella bent down and kissed the little guy on his little head. Barnabus, being so close to her nose, couldn't resist. "UGH! Barny, really?" She rolled her eyes at the puff but smirked. Then she went to find a seat.
