(Instead of the opening being first, we fade in on a book that opens before us)
Narrator: Once upon a time, in a village that is now modern day Manchester England...
(The book opens)
Narrator: There lived wizards and witches. They were highly regarded in the village for their healing potions and spells, helping the villagers and protecting the village. One of these families were well known for this.
(A page turns to reveal a young Azalea and her family)
Narrator: They were known as flower wizards. Azalea, Lavender, Rose and Admon.
(Another page turns)
Narrator: One day, an evil witch called Lilith, placed a dark spell over the village. Making the villagers believe that the wizards and witches were evil. Rose and Admon perished, but when the sisters had tried to escape, Lilith had caught them right in her path. Lavender placed a protection spell upon herself and her sister, but in the process... Both sisters disappeared. And that... Is where our story begins....
(We fade out into....)
(Opening theme)
(Subtitle)
Hope: A Lost Twin! Lavender, Wizard of the Mirrored Farm Rhyme!
(We fade out after the subtitle and fade in unexpectedly as Hope pulls a book out from a shelf at the magic library)
Hope: I've been looking everywhere for this! Nursery Rhyme Knitting Patterns for Knitting Machines!
(SMACK!)
Emerald: Focus, yarn brain!
Hope: What was that for?!
Emerald: We're here for my summer vacation project! To learn a new skill before the end of vacation in time for the graduation festival!
Hope: Well I'm sorry if I'm feeding my interests thanks to the magic library!
Louise: There they go again they're almost like sisters.
Melanie: Well don't forget Emerald is Hope's daughter from the future. I'm surprised she is more put together.
Booker T.: Girls! What's going on? I heard fighting!
Emerald: Hi Booker T! We came here for my summer vacation project for school.
Hope: Emerald has to learn a new skill before the end of summer vacation. But somebody prefers to play.
Emerald: Isn't that you?
Hope: At least I get four months summer vacation!
Emerald: Who had to take a supplementary class to graduate with the others?
Hope: Okay you're on thin ice! Daughter from the future or not!
Emerald: And I've been training as a Barney Hunter this summer too. It hasn't been that long since I first transformed!
Hope: Yet you spend that much time playing with Hanamaru!
Gabriella: Oh boy...
Barney: There they go again.
Wallace: My Emerald is right though. Hope is kind of a lazy bones.
Barney: And what is THAT supposed to mean?
Alice: Girls, we'll be here til midnight if you keep playing around! Wallace, Barney, you too!
Wallace and Barney: (sighing) Alright.
(The girls are seen looking through the books for some ideas for Emerald, while the dinosaurs fly around playing together)
Aika: Here's a book about amigurumi. And it's in... Um, Booker T? Why is this book in Japanese?
Booker T: I-I forgot to return that in Tokyo...
Melinda: Hey look, puppet making!
Emerald: Keep that book away from me!
Hope: Oh? Is somebody afraid of puppets?
Emerald: Puppets will be obsolete by the 30th century!
Hope: Oh so you are afraid of puppets aren't you Emerald?
Emerald: Zip it!
(As Hope eggs Emerald on, Melanie smiles, looking at the farm rhymes book.)
BJ: So was this the book that helped Stella find all the numbers on the clock that one time?
Melanie: Yeah. It's also where auntie Azalea lives. There's a portal here too.
Riff: There must be lots of rhymes in it!
Melanie: There must be!
(But something catches her eye... On the other shelf.)
Melanie: Um? What's this?
(The others peer over)
Melanie: Another book of farm rhymes?
Hope: But that's impossible. There's only one. And it's the only one that contains the portal to the farm rhymes world. Booker T? Did you happen to come across this book?
Booker T: Well, this is the first I've seen this book. It looks like the one Stella read when she lost the numbers but... It seems more mirrored.
Alice: You mean...
(Flashback to an earlier episode)
Alice: Like how everything in my Guardians Trial was topsy turvy?
(Flashback ends)
Booker T.: This might be from a mirrored world. I think Azalea might have something to do with this. You girls better go and see her. It will also give Emerald an opportunity to ask about her Emerald Star Wand.
Hope: We better get moving then.
(Much later)
(The girls arrive at Azalea's)
Hope: Huh? Little Hen isn't there?!
Barney: I hope that she's alright
(The girls run across the hill to Azalea's cottage)
Hope: Azalea!
Melanie: Auntie Azalea!
Azalea: Hi girls! You came on a good day.
Alice: Little Hen's ok right?
Azalea: Huh? (Laughs) Don't worry! She went to the mill, she should be back soon!
Melinda: That's a relief! Anyway, we've come to talk to you.
Azalea: Talk?
Emerald: First of all, about this.
Azalea: Another star wand?
Hope: And about this book.
Azalea: Another farm rhymes. It's mirrored! Can I see?
(Hope nods and hands the book to Azalea. She turns the page to where "I Had a Little Hen" is in the original book but she finds something familiar)
Azalea: It... It can't be!
Baby Bop: What's wrong, Azalea?
Wallace: You look like you've seen a spirit.
Barney: I think the phrase is ghost.
Wallace: Ghost, spirit, same thing.
Azalea: The girl in this book... She is my twin sister.
All Girls and Dinos: WHAT?!
Melanie: I have another auntie?!
Hope: More importantly you have a sister?!
Azalea: It was a long time ago.
(Flashbacks begin)
Azalea: My parents Rose and Admond, my sister Lavender and I lived comfortably in the village of Flowerton, which became Manchester. We were known as healers. Many people in the village were. We were happy. Until...
(Flashback - the night of the Flowerton attacks)
Lilith: Now. These witches and wizards have caused nothing but trouble to our village! Find whoever you can and kill them!
(The villagers charge)
Azalea: (age 10) Mother, father! What's going on?!
Admon: We need to leave!
Azalea (age 10) : L-leave?! Why?!
Rose: Don't lose sight of your sister, Lavender!
Lavender (age 10) : Azalea!
(The family begins to run, when suddenly... Rose and Admon fall!)
Azalea (age 10) : MOTHER! FATHER!!
Admon: Azalea, you and your sister must keep running.
Azalea (age 10) : What?! You can't be serious!! You promised. You promised we'd be a family and we'd stay a family until the end!!
Admon: Your mother and I will hold the villagers off. There is a cottage that an old friend left for us in Scotland.. Your mother and I will try to reunite with you there!
Lavender (age 10) : Azalea! Come on!
(Azalea is too numb to even move. She realizes her world is falling apart before her eyes)
Admon: Azalea! Always remember that no matter what, your mother and I will always be with you... I wanted to give this to you for your birthday... But it doesn't seem I'll be able to...
(He gives her a silhouette brooch pin)
Lavender (age 10) : What are you doing?! We have to leave!
(Azalea and Lavender tearfully leave their parents who are confronted by Lilith... Who then.... In a burst of magic.... Are tragically killed)
Azalea (age 10) : MOTHER!! FATHER!!
Lavender (age 10) : T-they're dead now, aren't they?!
Lilith: (laughs evilly) You've caught on. Now, you're both are next!
(She blasts a deathening blast the same that tragically struck their parents...)
Lavender (age 10) : Lux Praesidii!
(A giant protective shield appears)
Lavender (age 10) : You'll have to keep running on your own, Azalea!
Azalea (age 10) : What?! But, sister....
Lavender (age 10) : I'll hold off the witch! You can't stay here it's dangerous! You need to keep running!!
(Azalea backs up and begins running to Scotland)
(As this happens she sees a light before her shine)
(She arrives at the cottage she now lives in)
(Azalea walks right in, sat alone inside in tears. She opens the silhouette. It is a picture of her mother and father and sister Lavender)
(Flashbacks end)
Azalea: On that night my life changed... I've lived here ever since but... I wish I had known more magic that night. I could have saved my parents and Lavender... But it seems like she's in this alternate universe. She must have cast a spell that put her in this world.
Hope: So let's free her.
Azalea: It isn't easy as baking bread or bringing flour back within half an hour. Lilith might reside there.
Melanie: Aunt Azalea, do you know who you're talking about here? We're the Barney Hunters. We've faced just about anything. Monsters, trolls, even mad scientists!
Azalea: And Emerald...
Emerald: I'm in training but... I want to do something!
Aika: You and your hen have taken care of us.
Melinda: We'll handle this.
Louise: Yeah and we'll come back with our heads held high.
Alice: And, Lavender and whatever she has... She'll come and live with you too!
Hope: You have our word, Azalea. We'll bring your sister back for sure!
Azalea: Thank you girls... Alright. I'll cast a spell to open a portal.
Barney: And let's use Shimbaree Magic to transport ourselves in!
(Much later, a circle is drawn around the book)
Hope: We only have one shot to save Lavender, we have to give it all we got! Girls!
All but Hope: Yeah!
Azalea: Pages of fantasy! Open before me, unveil the world that turns within the pages of this book!
(The girls hold hands as Barney and the dinosaurs gather)
Girls: SHIMBAREE! SHIMBARRAH! SHIMBAREE SHIMBARRAH!!
Dinosaurs: Open!!! The portal to the mirrored farm rhymes world!
