Chapter one- Fantasy life
Her hair is sparkling brown, her skin is a soft cream, and her imagination is as fresh as ever. She sits in a small, green leaf on the swampy saltwater. Wonder. She’s a fairy! As the day comes to the soothing sunrise, Wonder sits in her usual spot. To her it’s relaxing and peaceful. Nobody is around her but, the soft breeze of wind. It slowly caresses her cheek as she floats on by the small creek near her home. She lives in a small nest made from leaves and twigs. She lives alone on top of a tree. Wonder is used to the quietness and loneliness. She hasn’t many friends except for the green, slimy frog that lives on a Lilly pad on the creek. To wonder, her best friend is fantasy and wild imagination.
There are millions of fairies that live in the kingdom of Tafer but, none of them seem to care for wonder. Her only dream is to explore and find her one true love.
The sun slowly goes down and sets a florescent color of orange. It’s the most beautiful color to Wonder. The clouds in the sky are pillows to comfort her when she is scared and the moon is like her guard, watching over her as she sleeps. There is not much in the world to make Wonder happy but, she wants to become a darkened fairy.
A darkened fairy is a type of fairy that is rich of magic and can order around anyone it likes. It controls human minds to choose the wrong path. It is the conscience that sits on your left shoulder and guides you to the dark side. It is indestructible. It is deadly!
A lightened fairy is the exact opposite of the darkened fairy. It sits on your right shoulder and encourages you to do well. The only problem is that it has no power but to persuade you. It cannot control minds and is not indestructible. Most importantly……..it is weak!
Wonder always wanted to become a darkened fairy. She wished to rule others and have an attitude but, she has to prove to the head fairy that she can be one and she must give in her current life for the powers of a darkened fairy! Right now, she is just a plain, ordinary fairy with the only power to fly.
As wonder daydreams on her leaf a sound hits her hears. It is the call of a male fairy. It’s coming near her. Quickly, Wonder flies up off of her comfortable leaf to see the fairy. She looks into the bushes but, no one is present. She looks at the sky but, it stays as empty as ever. “Looking for me?” says a voice from behind. She turns to find a male fairy. It is the most handsome creature she has ever seen. His eyes sparkle in an aqua colored gaze. His wings flutter like an angel above the heavens. His hair sways in the cool breeze; it’s a blonde pile of beauty.
He looks at her and folds his strong arms. “Hello! I’m Saffire! Nice to meet you!” he says. Wonder floats over to him and slowly shakes his hand. “Um……Hello there! My name is Wonder…..your very handsome…..I mean your very kind! Heh-heh! Did I say that out loud?” she asked. Saffire smiled at her and for that one moment she felt like the luckiest fairy alive! He shook his head and chuckled. “It’s ok! I think you’re very pretty as well!” he replied with the sweetest and most beautiful smile. Wonder was fascinated by Saffire. She actually felt that she was in love!
“Well, I better get back to my brother before he yells at me! So I’ll see you around, Wonderful!” he said and flew off. “Actually it’s Wonder but, call me whatever you like! Goodbye!” she called out to him.
