Brainy smurf is apprentice of Papa smurf. Apprentice is someone, or in this case, some smurf, who learn something from the some smurf who be apprenticed for. Brainy learn magic from Papa smurf.
Papa smurf is a wizard, or that what he claimed to be, even though, he is more likely to be alchemist as his term of magical power came from multivarious kind of potion that he mixed beforehand.
It is to Papa smurf's belief that magic should only be used within the presence of catalyst, in this case a potion or a magical item. Because magic that casted without catalyst may not properly functioning, or worse they demand too much from the caster as there is no such thing as a free lunch.
And as Papa smurf's apprentice, or his personal assistant as he often proudly pronounce, Brainy know this, the fact of catalytic law. And in his quest to attain the respect of other smurfs, Brainy is an eager apprentice, he learn, he read, and he 'practice' magic and spell that yet had been taught to him.
But, due to his arrogant streak, over self-confidence, and ignorance beyond unknown resulting a really 'blown up' situation, Papa smurf is not really eager to accept Brainy helping his experiment and often politely excused him.
Due to this reason, Brainy compromise with stealthily doing some secret experiment and learning spellbook in Papa smurf Laboratory when Papa's smurf is away.
Like today.
"Hhoaam.. Gee, Brainy, isn't it too early to do sumthin'? Clumsy smurf complained as he dragged toward Papa smurf's lab.
"No Clumsy, as I told you before, Papa smurf will be back at noon, and I need you to do my experiment." Brainy say matter-o-factly.
As the two smurf reach Papa smurf's lab, Brainy slowly push the door. He cringed as the creaking sound that the door made, after making sure the situation is clear, he hurriedly tell Clumsy to go in.
"Gosh, Brainy, won't Papa smurf be angry if we just go in without permission?"
"Of course not, Clumsy, as Papa smurf always say his library is always open to everysmurf, and just in coincidence that his lab and library are in the same place, so we in manner of speaking, we just using Papa smurf's library."
"Err, whatever you says, Brainy."
"Good! Now be a good smurf and help me please, put that green vial, on the table."
"This one?"
"Yes."
"Now, wait." Brainy says, as he draw a complicated magic circle in the floor.
"Now, Clumsy, smurf this rock, please. And stand in the center of the circle."
"Err, Brainy isn't this my rock that can smurf the future?" Asks Clumsy, starring to the shiny glowing pink rock in his hand.
"Yes Clumsy, it is."
"What you gonna smurf with it, Brainy? Papa smurf take it away from me, he said this rock made we become unsmurfy."
"Do you see Clumsy that this rock, can smurf the future, but is fixed to one person, the one who unearthed it! You, Clumsy!"
"Uh-huh."
"And furthermore, even though this rock capable to tell the future, it just tell random and incomplete version of the future, resulting in a wrong deduction!"
"Ehh?"
"Its mean this rock is don't tell all the future, Clumsy." Brainy sighed.
"Ooh."
"So, with the ancient spell that I researched, we will be able to take complete control of the rock, and the rock may tell us all the future!"
"Aaah!"
"And you, my dear friend, Clumsy smurf, will help me do just that!"
"How, Brainy? I don't know anythin' magic."
"Simple, the spell call for the person who unearthed the stone to smurf at the center. You do that, and I'll take care the rest."
"Oh, okay, Brainy."
"Two glass of water from River of Time, a sprinkle of Pixie's dust, five drops of smurf essence, two-three ounce of belladonna's extract, stir fast."
"Three slices of lily pad, a leaf from dragon's flower, a bit of copper-zinc alloy, and a bottleful of alkaline smurf."
"Add a ginger, with a touch of holy."
Spell of magic! Spell of Time! The dust of mystic! The tome of mime!
Hear my plea, and bestow your glee! For the future I ask, from this rock you lapse!
Unchain the seal of this restrained stone! To that whomever, may know it throne!
The pot boiling fast. Sparkling so many colors at once.
Now.
Brainy quickly take the boiling pot and place it under the dusking sun. After a while the potion calmed and change into some kind of thin white paste.
"Now Clumsy, hold still, do not move. Do not make any sudden move."
"O-Okay, Brainy" Clumsy says, frightened.
Brainy take the pot and pour the potion on the edge of the circle, the white paste, being magical, circling the magic diagram and coating every inch of the graph and the ancient word that written on the magic circle.
Litotes
And therefore, the Queen of Lameria says, that the sparkling stone on his hand is a caused of distort and destruct.
For people who know the future always try to alter it to profit their side. And they're doing so, by destroying each other who try to do the very same.
So the Minister Ollegraf and Alchemist Lysilla is called by the Queen.
"Have you heard the death of my beloved? My royal subject?"
"We are, my Queen" They answer
"For this stone is the cause of distort, the spreader of destruct, much less like the Golden Apple, that every
God despise."
"So for that I edict, to you my Honorable Alchemist, to use whatever it take in your prowess to restrain this stone power. And for you my Trusted Minister to use whatever it take to earthen this stone so there are no more living being to fall in attempt to harness its power."
"As you wish, my Queen."
And so the alchemist cast a binding spell to restrain its power and after that the minister is ordered to hide it in the place that never seen.
But as age pass, the stone unearthed, as the binding spell of alchemist grow weaker, the person who unearth it capable to see some part of the future.
However, as the saying goes 'history repeat itself'. The power of magic is causing struggle to the being who try to possess it. Until the owner decide that is not worth the sacrifice, and earth it back.
Litotes.
And the cycle is continued. Until it placed on your hand. Clumsy smurf.
Litotes.
You are good-hearted, kind, a bit of clumsy, but that's who you are. Are you willing to take the risk of destruction, for releasing the binding of the stone?
Smurf in front of you is yet a great wizard, apprentice I see. Eager to learn, eager to know, and eager to do the best, sometimes even if it a bit crossing the line. In thirty seconds, the chain will be broken, and the stone power will be released.
Stop it, Clumsy. Stop him unchained the seal.
Clumsy blinked, the stone talked to him, well, maybe not the stone but the ghost of the stone, or the spell that bind the stone, but clumsy know none of this. He only know that Brainy must be stopped. So he shout as loud as he can.
"Stop Brainy! The stone said don't unchained the seal!"
The glowing aura stop instantly, Brainy blinked. Normally, he will shunned Clumsy for talking nonsense, right, the stone that can talk. However, Brainy know Clumsy, and Clumsy is not a really bright smurf, he is not really know words. In fact, he still need help to read. How come he know seal? Not to mention, unchained. So someone must tell him.
The stone stop glowing, Brainy fell to the ground.
"Amorel. Disappear." Brainy says, make the magic circle vanish.
"What do you mean Clumsy?" Brainy asks, starring to his friend asking for explanation.
After a brief explanation. Brainy sighed. He don't know this. Well, he should know. The fact that he skipped the history section and just went through the spell section is the reason for his obliviousness.
Suddenly.
"So you see, little one. That's why you should learnt everything before performing a spell." The stone says, glowing.
"Yes, thank you, I know that, now." Brainy remarked.
"Now if you'll be so kind, please mend the seal that you happen to let loose." The stone says, in a cynic
tone.
"Alright..." Brainy says, weakly under his breath.
As Brainy mend the seal, suddenly he see a vision. A future vision. He, Clumsy, Handy, Hefty, and Grouchy is trying to balance the mushroom top to make a perfect mushroom house for Flighty.
Wow. I can see future.
Now, his vision continue, Tracker, Smurfette, and Lazy run toward them and shouting that Gargamel turn to stone caused by his own foolishness.
What a happy ending!
But, Papa smurf see this, and says something about smurfy thing to do, and by Tracker's help gather a special herbs to create an antidote to free Gargamel and Azrael from the curse.
That's not right! Don't Papa smurf know, how many times that evil wizard try to capture us, eat us, or
turned us into gold? Oh, this is not happening. This is so not happening.
And the future stone smirked.
