Tempressa was on her way to Lulu's house to flash her ice box when she came upon a big tall man standing and waving at her. "Hello sir are you lost?" asked Tempressa. "No I know exactly where I am," said God. "So what are you doing way out here by yourself?" asked Tempressa. "Just waiting for you," said God. "For me? Why would you be waiting for me?" asked Tempressa. "Well I have been watching you for a long time, along with your sister," said God. "Watching us, how?" asked Tempressa. "Lets just say I am a over seer," said God. "Now what I am impressed with the most with you and your sister Snowflake is that you never misused the gift I gave you two. You both had many oppertunities when you were younger but you stayed good and never harmed a good soul." "That's right, how do you know all this stuff about my sister and me?" asked Tempressa. You must be more than just a over seer to know my personal business. If you have bad intentions then I would think twice. I will freeze your butt and you won't be able to sit for an hour." God laughed. "No I have no bad intentions. I just believe that it is important Mother Nature's sister knows I am here and very happy with her," said God. "Now you are confussing me," said Tempressa."You must be some kind of a saint or angel to know Mother Nature is my sister." "No my child, I am God and it is a pleasure to see you in person." "God? Ya right and I am the Ice Queen right," said Tempressa. "Yes you are," said God. "Your sister gave you that title after Gabriel made Snowflake's soul into Mother Nature. It was me that told her to see you first because you were crying ice cubes in Alieta's den. Alieta was crying also in the dinningroom." Tempressa jumped off her horse and ran up to God. "Are you really here, I mean can you be touched?" asked Tempressa. "Well yes, I am in the flesh while I am on the surface", said God, "Why do you ask?" "This is why," then Tempressa jumped up on God and wrapped her legs and arms around him." "Thankyou so much for letting my sister live on as Mother Nature. She is my big sister and I wouldn't of known what to do without her," said Tempressa. "Well your welcome dear, I also needed someone to take care of the weather for me. She is great at doing that," said God. Tempressa jumped off of God. "So you have been waiting here for me to come by so you could talk to me?" asked Tempressa. "Well yes but I didn't have to wait long," said God. "You make ice in all your friends ice boxes. That is a very important service you provide." "Yep it sure is," said Tempressa. "I am on my way to Lulu's place first then I work my way down through Eden until I get to Ivy's house. They keep tons of ice cream in their ice box so I always give it an extra flash." "So Lulu you say. Can you take me there with you?" asked God. "I would like to explain a few things to her about her brother Cupid." "Sure but you are too heavy for my horse," said Tempressa. Can't you just teleport there or what ever you do?" "Yes but I haven't rode a horse for a very long time," said God. "I can get smaller." "Okay then lets go, you drive and I will hang on to you," said Tempressa. They both got on the horse and God asked Tempressa what the horses name was. "Just horse, that is all I every called her," said Tempressa. God smiled. "Simple but she would like to be called Tempy," said God. "Really, okay Tempy and Tempressa kind of goes together," said Tempressa. "Tempy it is then."

Ivy and Fillina got to Ivy place and saw Viridian cleaning the dishes and the lap top was closed. "Hi Viridian," did you finish accepting all the friend requests?" asked Ivy. "Are you kidding, there is no way you can finish that list. They just keep coming and not just from Granada but all over the world in places I have never heard of," said Viridian. "I did a lot but gave up." "Oh okay, Fillina wanted to see how my page worked," said Ivy. "We will be in my room." Ivy grabbed the lap top and showed Fillina her room. "Wow you sure like green don't you," said Fillina. "Yep, green is my favorite colour," said Ivy. "Yours must be black." "No not really, I like lots of different colours," said Fillina. "So where did you get that skimmpy black outfit?" asked Ivy. "Well I made it myself," said Fillina. "When God created me I was naked. He gave me a dress to wear but I didn't like it." "Okay so you know that it is very sexy and barely covers your privates," said Ivy. "I guess, but is is very comfortable," said Fillina. "Ya I used to wear baggy green shorts and a green top a long time ago that were comfortable but everyone at the palace dressed sexy so I changed back to my normal outfit that is sexy too but it covers everything properly. Besides this is what Foest Sprite wear." "So what I am wearing is not proper for here?" asked Fillina. "Alieta didn't say anything about it." "Because your a god and it is not her place to tell you what to wear," said Ivy. "She wouldn't let any of the other girls wear what you have on outside." "Oh my, I didn't know," said Fillina. "I can put something else on. Do you have any suggestions?" "Actually I have an idea," said Ivy. "Can you go to Granada when ever you want?" "Ya sure but why would I go there?" asked Fillina. "Well can you take me to Granada with you?" asked Ivy. "I saw a really nice store that sold sexy girl clothes in the mall when I was shopping with Olympia." "Well yes I can take anyone I like to anywhere in that reality," said Fillina. "Good, we can check out Facebook another time. I have lots of money so I am taking you shopping," said Ivy. "Really, I have never shopped before," said Fillina. "Well you will love it," said Ivy. "All girls love to shop. Let me tell Viridian where we are going then off to the mall we go!" They both left the bedroom. Bye Viridian, we are going to Granada to get Fillina more appropiate clothes," said Ivy. Still sexy but covers her stuff better." Then they vanished. Viridian shook her head then smiled. That girl would look sexy even wearing a potatoe sack, said Viridian. "Okay here is Granada so where is this store?" asked Fillina. "Put on your wings and just follow me," said Ivy. "It is not far from here." "When they got to the mall Ivy showed Fillina around a bit." "Everyone is looking at me," said Fillina. "Ya, your almost naked," said Ivy. "Who wouldn't look. Okay there is the store." "Wow look at all the clothes in there," said Fillina. "Yep they sell regular clothes too plus lingerie and bikinis. Even hats and shoes but we don't need them," said Ivy. "So you ready to go shopping?" "You bet lets go in," said Fillina.

Once inside Fillina was looking around and was surprise there were so many different types of clothes and many different colours. "Over there looks like some nice clothes," said Ivy. "Lets check out that rack first." "Oh I really like this top," said Fillina. "This top is nice too and this one also." "Okay so give them to me and lets check out the shorts and skirts," said Ivy. "No wait, look at this," said Fillina. "I real like this dress and it comes in different four colours." Okay then pick the one you want to wear now then go in one of those change rooms and see if it looks good on you," said Ivy. "Okay so in that small room then," said Fillina. "Yep, you don't need lots of space to put on clothes," said Ivy. "There is a big mirror inside so you can look at yourself." Fillina went in the change room and put on the dress. "Wow Ivy," I look hot!" said Fillina. "Well come out here and let me see you," said Ivy. Fillina stepped out of the change room. "Your right, that does look great on you," said Ivy, Much better than that robe thing." "I agree," said Fillina. "I was getting tired of it anyways." "So this is okay to wear in Fae Land?" "You bet, said Ivy and you will fit in better with the other girls at the palace. Now lets go to the check out counter so I can pay for that dress." "I want the other colours too," said Fillina. Okay then grab them and lets go," said Ivy.

"Well hello Ivy, who is your friend?" asked the sales girl. "Fillina, she brought me back to Granada to buy some new clothes," said Ivy. "I see so what do we have here then?" asked the girl. "These dresses plus the one she is wearing," said Ivy. "What happened to that sexy robe she was wearing? Is it still in the change room" asked the girl. "Nope I just made it vanish," said Fillina. "I was tired of it." "Vanish? You must be a Fae then like Ivy," said the girl. "Nope she is God's helper and girlfriend," said Ivy. "Really, God's girlfriend? Well I could of worn that in the bedroom with my boyfriend," said the girl. "Oh, here you go then," said Fillina and made the robe appear on the counter nicely folded. "Wow, magic, that was amazing," said the girl. "Yep white magic," said Fillina. "So God's girlfriend you said. Your not just trying to get a discount are you?" asked the girl. "Nope I have lots of money," said Ivy. "Well you better because that outfit is from the Jenny collection," said the girl. "They are like two hundred bucks each. Let me bring Jenny's line up on the computer. She did some typing on the computer then said, I don't believe it. Everything we carry of Jenny's clothes are seventy five percent off! "Hmm, I guess that talk I had with her worked," said Ivy. "You know Jenny?" asked the girl. "Yep, she is a nice lady," said Ivy. "Okay then, instead of them being eight hundred dollars they are just three hundred," said the girl. "Will that be cash or credit card?" "Olympia has a credit card," said Ivy. "I have this bag of gold coins." "Gold coins you said, can I see them?" asked the girl. Ivy dumped them out on the counter. "Well they have numbers on them so I will take these three that say one hundred on them," said the girl. "Um excuse me Andrea. Those are pure gold coins. All you need is one of them and one of the smaller ones, that is more than enough," said Fillina. "I wasn't born yesterday and I can tell you know gold coins are worth a lot more than paper money." How did you know my name?" asked the girl. "I told you she is God's girl friend. She is a god too and gods know stuff," said Ivy. "Okay I am so sorry, me bad. So just these two will cover it and you have change," said the girl. "No keep the change. I have lots more at home," said Ivy. "Thank you, your so nice even though I tried to rip you off." "Well you came clean and your forgiven," said Fillina. "I can forgive sins too you know, that is something else Gods do." "Okay, ready to go back home Ivy?" "Yep lets show off your new outfit at the palace," said Ivy. Then they both vanished. "No one is going to believe this, thought the girl. "I just sold God's girlfriend clothes. For sure they will think I am losing it. I best start saying my prayers again before going to bed." Another sales girl came over. "So you sold Ivy some clothes?" she asked. "Who was that other girl with her?" "Just a a girl, a tall girl, no one important just a big tall girl. Not like she was a Fae or God or anything like that," said Andrea quickly. "Are you feeling okay?" asked the girl. "Umm I think I need to go to church. I am due to do my confessions," said Andrea.

Back in Fae Land, God and Tempressa reached Lulu's place and the both jumped off of the horse. "Okay here its is," said Tempressa. "Nice and small plus colourful." "Yes I see that," said God. "Now have you met Sakura yet?" asked Tempressa. "Yes I did a very wonderful little girl full of love and excitement," said God. "Well Lulu is Sakura's best friend and is is a lot like Sakura in many ways," said Tempressa. "Let me see if she is home." Tempressa knocked on the door then stepped back. Lulu opened the door and was happy to see Tempressa. "Hi Tempressa, here to freeze my ice box again?" asked Lulu. "Yep but I flash it not freeze it," said Tempressa. "There is a difference." "Okay, as long as it gets cold in there again you can call it what ever you want," said Lulu. "There is a nice man here that wants to talk to you also," said Tempressa. "He is too tall so best you come out here." "Wow he is big, who is he?" asked Lulu. "Oh go find out for yourself. You will be very surprised, I sure was," said Tempressa. Then she ducked down and walked in the house.

Lulu flew over to God and looked him up and down. "Wow you are tall, even taller than Tempressa," said Lulu. "Big muscles too. My name is Lulu, what is your name. I am Cupid's little sister but I don't live with him anymore. He does stupid things with his bow and arrow. He shouldn't be allowed to make just any two people fall in love. You got nice blue eyes sort of like mine but mine are turquoise like my hair and wings." "My Tempressa is right, you are like Sakura," said God. "Yep she is my best friend," said Lulu. "We do lots of stuff together, well mostly play. Pixies love to play and so does she. So what did you want to talk to me about?" "Well if you would give me a chance I wanted to talk to you about your brother," said God. Oh okay sorry, I get excited when I meet someone new," said Lulu. "So what did Cupid do now?" asked Lulu. "He didn't make you fall in love with the wrong person with that stupid bow and arrow did he?" God smiled. No nothing like that," said God. "I wanted to tell you that he can't make two people fall in love if they don't want to." "How do you know that?" asked Lulu. Now she stopped flying. "Well I gave him that magical bow and arrow. He wasn't born with it like you were borm with your wand." "You know I have a wand, how do you know that?" asked Lulu. "Did Tempressa tell you?" No I gave you that wand when you became a pixie," said God. "You had to wait ten years before you found out you had it." Lulu looked at God closely. "What did you say your name is again?" asked Lulu. "I didn't say, you didn't give me a chance to answer you," said God. "Oh, so I will let you tell me now," said Lulu. Tempressa was watching Lulu from the window to see her reaction. "Well most call me Father and some call me the creator but you can call me God like Sakura does," said God. Lulu went silent. "You are God, like the big guy in heaven with all the angels?" asked Lulu. "Yes that is me," said God. "So Sakura believes you are God?" asked Lulu. "Well after I told her how I spit her soul so she wouldn't sleep any more when Yeanny went shopping she did," said God. "Well if Sakura believes then so do I," said Lulu. Then she flew up some and made her wand appear making a drink for God in a glass. "What is this? asked God. "Pink lemon-aide of coarse," said Lulu. "Everyone likes pink lemon-aide. Its a gift, not every day God comes to visit me. Actually this is the first time." Tempressa came out of the house. I told you it would surprise you when you found out who he was," said Tempressa. "Surprised, I was speechless, well for just for a bit, well maybe just a second, I think I talk when I am sleeping too," said Lulu.

"So what were you saying about my brother's stupid bow and arrow?" asked Lulu. "Can I stay and listen?" asked Tempressa. "I would like to hear about this." "Sure if you like," said God. "Lets sit and get comfortable." They all sat on the grass and God took a sip of his drink. "This is good," said God. "Ktara gave me coconut cookies to try now pink lemon-aide." "Can I have a glass?" asked Tempressa. "You bet here you go," said Lulu. "It's even better with ice cubes," said Tempressa. She pointed her finger at God's drink then hers making ice cudes. "You going to have a glass Lulu." "Nope I already had two glasses," said Lulu. "I had to use up the last bit of ice in the ice box before it melted." "Okay then, now the bow and arrow I gave Cupid is not stupid," said God. "It is actually very smart when it comes to love. You see the arrow doesn't make people fall in love at all and the bow and arrow won't even appear if the couple are just friends and not in love." "I don't get it," said Lulu. "I thought the arrow made people fall in love." "Not at all," said God. "That would be interfering with free will. That was a gift from me so I won't allow that. What happens is when Cupid goes out looking for lovers and he sees a girl and a boy together and they are just talking, the bow and arrow will not appear if they are already in love with each other or don't want to be in love. Now it will appear if each person is secretly in love with the other but neither wants to take the first step of saying I love you. That is when Cupid can shoot the magical arrow at usually the man that gives him the courage to say I love you first. Usually that will do it and they will kiss but if the girl is very shy and just smiles then a second arrow is need for the girl." "So the arrow gives them just courage?" asked Lulu. "Yes but just to make them tell each other they are in love. After that nature has to take it's coarse," said God. "Okay but I still had to leave because everyone made me use my wand to make something for them, like a lot and everyone got lazy," said Lulu. "Yes I know but Pippa took care of that a little while ago," said God. "You belong here in Fae Land where people will not take advantage of you and your magic wand," said God. "Can I see it for a minute? Lulu made her wand appear and God put out his hand and took it from her. "Hey how did you do that?" asked Lulu. "The wand is part of me." "And it will be again in a moment," said God. He held the wand with both hands and it began to glow for a moment then turned the same colour as Lulu's eyes then handed it back to her. "Wow you made it turquoise, my favorite colour," said Lulu. "Yes and now it will make big things go away as you put it when you make something and don't want it to stay forever," said God. "I know you can make small items go way or your hone would be full of glasses and plates as an example." "Ya I know, I hate doing dishes, said Lulu. Both God and Tempressa laughed. "What, did I say a joke?" asked Lulu. "No but everyone hates doing dishes, said Tempressa. "When I make something big I don't want it to go away like the palace and the school," said Lulu. "Yes and that is still the same but now you can fix things big later on when needed," said God. "Change the shape a bit or make something bigger or smaller." "Okay that is great, that may be useful sometimes," said Lulu. "Sakura likes doing dishes for Yeanny and I like doing them with her at her place, she is my best friend, I have lots of regular friends," said Lulu. Sakura has lots of best friends but she said I am her number one best friend then comes Ivy, then Alieta, then all the girls at the palace and the fairy nymphs. Okay Lulu, we get it," said Tempressa. "Everyone loves Sakura. Okay interesting story God but I have ice boxes to flash, said Tempressa. "I'll see you next week Lulu." Then Tempressa went to her horse and rode off. "She says that she flashes an ice box but I say she freezes it, I watch her do it and never is there a bright light, just ice everywhere," said Lulu. God smiled. "Yes that is true, but Tempressa likes to say flash for some reason," said God. "Okay I have someone else to visit so, say hi to Sakura for me." Then God vanished. "Good idea, time to see what Sakura and the monkeys are doing," said Lulu.

Ivy and Fillina reappeared at the palace where Alieta was sitting on the couch. "Hi Alieta come and see the dress I bought for Fillina in Granada," said Ivy. "What she was wearing before just wasn't right for around here." "Yes Ivy told me that the robe I was wearing before was too revealing and you wouldn't let your girls in the palace wear it outside," said Fillina. "Well that is true but I am not responsible for you," said Alieta. "I must say though that is a very nice dress." "Yep I told her she would fit in better at the palace in that dress,"said Ivy. Yes all the girls here like to dress nice," said Alieta. "I always said if you got a nice body then dress to show it off." "So this is okay then?" asked Fillina. "You are the queen and I don't want to offend you." "That dress is perfect and suits you," said Alieta. "I like it." "Good because I got a white one, a red one and a black one also," said Fillina. "A girl has to have a bit of variety." Alieta smiled. "So you took Ivy to Granada to shop?" "Yep, that was okay right? She knows all the best shops there," said Fillina. "Yes that is fine," said Alieta. "Ivy can do as she pleases. I have a question for you." "Okay what is it?" asked Fillina. "If I asked you to take Ginger to Granada to buy stock for the palace, things we can't get here in this reality, would you take her and how much can you bring back with you? Sapphire had to make several trips to bring all of Olympia's stuff here." "Sure I can take her, you too if you want," said Fillina. "There is no limit though. I could bring an entire house here if needed. I don't use a silly portal. One thing though. I don't know where all the stores are." "Well if you had a map and address, could you find the store?" asked Alieta. "Sure, I can read maps, said Fillina. "Good because these cell phones Ivy gave us have maps on them, for just about anywhere in that reality," said Alieta. "Nice, that will come in handy," said Fillina. "Yep cell phones can do lots of stuff," said Ivy. "Lets go in the palace and show off your new dress to everyone. They are going to love it! Hey where did the bag with your other dresses go?" "I sent them to my cloud," said Fillina. "No need to be carrying them around with me." "Oh okay," said Ivy. "Then they ran into the palace. "Interesting, the girl has a cloud for a bedroom," thought Alieta. At least I think it would be her bedroom. I never did understand that heavenly stuff.

Ginger came out and ran over to Alieta. "Wow I just saw Fillina's new mini dress," said Ginger. "It looks great on her don't you think?" "Yes a big improvement," said Alieta. "Ivy has been a positive influence on her. Fillina is back to making beautiful landscapes again and is maiking friends here. Ivy told me she made a new park in Paxon and I bet it is nothing like our park here." "Ya we need more parks here in Fae Land," said Ginger. "Yes I agree but first I have some very interesting news for you," said Alieta. "Really what's up?" asked Ginger. "Well if you are willing, Fillina agreed to take you to Granada to start trade with them," said Alieta. "Really, you will let me go to Granada to shop for the palace?" asked Ginger. "That would be awesome!" "I thought you would like that," said Alieta. "So first lets do a test run. Do you remember the name of that wine we were drinking yesterday? asked Alieta. "Yep, that was very good champagne," said Ginger. "Good, so look it up on your cell phone," said Alieta. "Already did," said Ginger. "It is an imported champagne from a place called Italy. It said that it was a semi sweet wine and mid-priced at thirty dollars a bottle." "Okay so can you see where in Granada it is sold?" asked Alieta. "Okay that I didn't do," said Ginger. "Lets see, it is sold in a lot of different stores in North America but just two I can see in Granada. One is a grocery store and the other is called "The Wine Shop". "That one sounds best and probably has more stock. Does it say where in Granada it is?" asked Alieta. "Umm, let me check," said Ginger. "Yep, 126 Center street, Downtown Granada. There is a phone number too." "Perfect, see of you can order a case for the palace. No make that two," said Alieta. Ginger smiled then dialed the number. "Hello, The Wine Shop, my name is Cindy. How may I help you?" "I would like to place an order for two cases of champagne," said Ginger. "Okay what type would you like?" asked Cindy. "Chateau Mendez Pink," said Ginger. "Very good choice," said Cindy. "That wine is very popular with the girls here." So it is a bit cheeper buying it by the case and there is twelve bottles per case so let me figure that out for you. Okay there is a ten percent discount per case so the total comes to six hundred and fourty eight dollars. Will that be cash, credit card?" "I will be paying in cash, said Ginger." "Okay then you will be picking it up," said Cindy. "Can I have your name and address please?" "Ginger and I live in the queen's palace in Fae Land." "Your kidding right?" asked Cindy. "No, a friend brought a bottle from Granada and gave it to Queen Alieta as a gift," said Ginger. We really liked it and now she wants me to buy two cases for the palace's wine cellar. "Queen Alieta, that very pretty girl with wings and a sexy outfit I saw on TV a while back?" asked Cindy. "Yep that would be her," said Ginger. "Could you hold for a moment, I will let you talk to the owner," said Cindy. "She put me on hold to get the store owner Alieta." said Ginger. "Really, I hope everything will be okay," said Alieta. "Hello, my name is Kathy, the owner of the store. Cindy tells me Queen Alieta is ordering wine from us". "Yes that is correct," said Ginger. "I am in charge of the palace and do all the ordering of supplies for it." "So you are in a very high position there then," said Kathy. "I guess so and we are best friends," said Ginger. "Well then, you should sign a mechant agreement with me and that will give you an additional ten percent off, said Kathy.That way you can make some money when you sell it to people at the palace." "No all food and drink is always free to everyone at the palace," said Ginger. "Really! Free food and wine, I have never heard of that before anywhere," said Kathy. WEll you have never been to Fae Land, that is one of Alieta's rules," said Ginger. Wow nice queen, so when are you coming to get the champagne? "Soon I think," said Ginger. "We have someone here that can take me back and forth between the two realities." "My that person must be very powerful," said Kathy. "You could say that," said Ginger. "Okay then, your order will be ready when you get here," said Kathy. "Great! See you soon," said Ginger then hung up. "Well Alieta, it seems that you even have pull in Granada. We are going to become a merchant and getting twenty percent off. So that will make it less than six hundred dollars." "You always were good at getting the best deals," said Alieta.

"Well you will need some paper money to take with you so go to the treasury and get what you need," said Alieta. "I will find Fillina and see if she can take you now." Okay, I hope she can," said Ginger. "I have heard so much about Granada and I am all excited to see it with my own eyes." "I bet you are and yes it is quite the place compared to Fae Land," said Alieta. Ginger ran into the palace to get the money. Alieta smiled. "This will be good for her to get out and see a new place," thought Alieta then she went into the palace. In a few minutes Ginger came back out and shortly after Ivy and Fillina came out. "So Alieta said you need a lift to Granada," said Fillina. "Where do you need to go?" "To The Wine Shop on Center Street," said Ginger. "I know where that is," said Ivy. "It is right down town not far from the mall you took me too." "You can't miss it, just two blocks north of the mall on the right. Olympia goes there all the time to buy that really good champagne." "Well that is what we are getting," said Ginger. "Two cases of it." Awesome, now I know where to go if I want some," said Ivy. "I am heading over to the cove to see how things are going. You have fun Ginger. Wait until you see what it is like there." Then Ivy flew off. "Okay so are you all set?" asked Fillina. "Got everything you need." "Yep, ready to go, said Ginger. "Good, now don't worry, this won't hurt a bit. You won't even know what happened," said Fillina then they vanished.
