Prologue The story continues with Ginger taking the queen of the Blue Fae, Safire to the diningroom. Safire doesn't want to live underground anymore so Ginger invited her to live in the palace with Alieta, herself and all the other girls. Ginger has to tell Safire about all the changes that have happened in Fae Land since the last time she came to the surface. The trickiest part will be telling Safire about God, Fillina and Lucifer that visit Fae Land most every day now. Ginger waits for the food to be served before explaining things to Safire... "Now this is what I am talking about," said Safire. "A big juicy cheese burgar with all the fixings and ice cream for desert. If I asked my cook to make me one of these, she would just look at me with a blank face and ask if I was nuts." Ginger smiled. "Well here you can order what ever you want. I keep the kitchen well stocked and our cooks are the best," said Ginger. "So Ginger, tell me about this guy that took you on a date," said Safire. "Where did he take you?" "We went to Paris France," said Ginger. "It is very beautiful there and the people are very friendly." "Hmm, never heard of the place, where is Paris France?" asked Safire. "Across the ocean," said Ginger. "What, is he some kind of wizard?" asked Safire. "No silly, it was Lucifer, you know and met him before," said Ginger. "Oh yes, the Devil but seems to be quite nice around the girls," said Safire. "Well he is not the Devil anymore," said Ginger. "God sent a bunch of archangels down to hell to take his place so that Lucifer could be with his family again." "Really, angels running Hell, sounds very odd to me," said Safire. "So Lucifer is the son of God, right?" "Yep and Fillina's son too," said Ginger. "Fillina? Now I am confused," said Safire. "Where did she come from, I never heard of her before." "None of us did seeing she dosn't get involved with people's problems. God created her after creating the universe as a helper and companion. She does most of the landscaping on the planets," said Ginger. Safire finished her cheese burgar and now started on the ice cream. "Okay so are you just making up a story to be funny with me?" asked Safire. "If God and this Fillina are in heaven then who told you all this stuff?" "They did," said Ginger. Safire froze, looking straight into Ginger's eyes. "I have know you for a very long time and in all that time you have never lied to me or anyone else for that matter but your eyes tell me you are telling me the truth," said Safire with a shocked look on her face. "I don't lie," said Ginger. "Once, a long time ago when I was young and lied about something, to a very good friend. That went very bad for me when the friend found out the truth and I lost that friend forever. I never lied again." Safire smiled at Ginger. "You can't lie anyways," said Safire. Those big beautiful eyes will give you away everytime. So when did God and his wife I guess you would call her come to see you?" "They come down to Fae Land every day now," said Ginger. "Fillina more so than God, she is a good friend of Ivy. They seem to do a lot together." Safire finished her ice cream and looked at Ginger's half eaten burger. "Are you going to finish that?" asked Safire. "What you are still hungry, these burgers are huge and that was a big bowl of ice cream," said Ginger. "Just a bit but waste not want not is what I always say, well this is the first time I've said that but are you going to finish it?" asked Safire. Ginger laughed. "Go ahead, help yourself," said Ginger. "I can never finish a whole burger. Safire grabbed the half eaten burger and finished it off. "So do you want to have a tour of the new palace now?" asked Ginger. "Maybe a bit later," said Safire. "I'm stuff and want to relax and get some fresh air. The air up here is much nicer than underground." "Okay, lets go and sit on the couch outside," said Ginger. "Fillina made it for Alieta." "She can make stuff too?" asked Safire. "Well she is a God so yes," said Ginger. "Wow a God, what does she look like. I bet she is a looker," said Safire. "Lets see, she is tall, much taller than me but not as tall as God. She has long very pretty brown hair like Phonixa's and Repellia's hair. She likes to dress sexy like everyone here and she doesn't have to wear any make up," said Ginger. "Really, all girls like to wear make up to look prettier," said Safire. "Not her because she is gorgeous silly. What would you expect God to create for himself," said Ginger. "Ya right I suppose he would make the perfect girl for himself. Do you think God would make the perfect man for me?" asked Safire. "Umm, I don't think there is such a thing," said Ginger. "You will have to ask him yourself." "I have in prayer most every night. I guess your right," said Safire. "Okay, lets head out." They both went back outside and sat on the couch. Safire looked around at everyone walking around, going about their business. "You see, life up here looks so much better," said Safire. "Elves walking around doing stuff, fresh clean air and a nice warm sun in the sky. I wouldn't even care if it was raining, I would just lay on the grass and let the water soak me." "You have been down there for too long," said Ginger. "I go in when it rains." Just then Fillina appeared. "Good your up," said Fillina to Ginger. "Alieta wants you to see the new amusement park I made." "Really, where is it?" asked Ginger. "Just on the north end of Eden," said Fillina. Fillina looked at Safire that was staring at her. "Well hello, who might you be?" asked Fillina. "Safire stood up fast and tried to say her name but was speechless for the moment. "This is Safire, queen of the Blue Fae that lives underground," said Ginger. "Really, I heard God mention your name a few times," said Fillina. "Really, I hope it wasn't anything bad," said Safire finally. "No your in his good books. You pray for a perfect man. There is only one of them and he is mine," said Fillina with a smile. "Ya being underground for so long must have effect my brain," said Safire. "My you are so pretty." "Well thankyou and you are very pretty too being all blue and all. I like it, very exotic looking. Can you give me a moment and I will be right back?" asked Fillina. "Sure we are just relaxing," said Ginger. "Good, now don't move either of you," said Fillina then vanished. "My goodness, that was the first time I couldn't get a word out of my mouth," said Safire. "I was breathless I think they call it." "Told you she was georgeous," said Ginger. "Yes and very tall too," said Safire. They waited for a few minutes then Fillina reappeared. "Sorry that took so long but once I told God my idea he loved it and wanted me to make the selection," said Fillina. "So you stand right here Safire and wait. God has to make a few enhancements then your prays will be aswered sort of anyways. Actually I think this is much better than what you were praying for. Okay, lets go Ginger, Alieta is waiting." Then they vanished. "I wonder what she did for me," thought Safire. "I just met her and barely said anything to her. What could be better than the perfect man?" Safire stood waiting and wondering then suddenly a flash of light appeared then Safire couldn't believe her eyes. "Hello Safire, I am for you. My name is Casper." "Oh my god, oh my god! You are for me like Tillia was for Sara?" asked Safire. "Yes that is correct," said Casper. "Tillia was the first special unicorn and I am the second. I can't run as fast as her but my horn is magical also like her's. If you want me, you have to get on my back so we can bond." "You bet I want you," said Safire then jumped on Casper's back. They both glowed blue for a few moments then it was done. "Now we can communicate with thought," said Casper. "Do you remeber how to ride a horse?" "I think so," said Safire. "Its been a long time since I have even been on a horse's back but I am sure it will be fine," said Safire. "I didn't know there was any blue unicorns." There wasn't, God just changed my colour for you," said Casper. "He made me special just for you. You are an amazing, fearless queen with great strength, kinda funny too. Do you still want to wish for the perfect man?" "I already got him right her," said Safire then hugged Casper's neck. Zan walked out of the palace and saw Safire sitting on Casper. "I don't believe it, is that you Casper all blue now?" "Yep sure is Zan, nice to see you again," said Casper. "God made me for Safire. "Well you can't argue with God and Fillina is one heck of a girl," said Zan. "So how long have you two been bonded?" "Just bonded now," said Casper. "Okay, so have you told her yet?" asked Zan. "No I just told her that I can't run like Tillia," said Casper. "Tell me what Zan, what are you two talking about?" asked Safire. "Can I tell her?" asked Zan to Casper. "Sure go ahead, I was getting to it but wanted to bond first," said Casper. "What, is there something wrong?" asked Safire. "On the contrary," said Zan. "You are sitting on the only flying unicorn." "Casper is not as fast as Pegasus but he has some good speed. Much faster than a horse or even you running Safire." "He can fly, that is so awesome," said Safire. "Why don't you show your new companion," said Zan. "Well I am unfamilar with Fae Land," said Casper. "She will have to guide. me." "Well I have never ventured off the palace grounds," said Safire. "Who cares just go explore then," said Zan. "You see that mountain, just fly over it and head out to Eden. You can't miss it and that is where Ivy and most of the heros live." "Well I wouldn't mind seeing Ivy again," said Safire. "Then it's settled, Ivy's home is just past Sandy Lake," said Zan. "You may see Tillia and Pegasus there too. I'm going swimming with Tara and Avan so have fun you two," then Zan headed for the stable. "Okay so flying, I have never been off the ground before," said Safire. So do you want me to run then?" asked Casper. "No best learn how to fly with you," said Safire. Good, flying is faster and more fun," said Casper. "Just hang on tight with your arms and your legs and I will do the rest until you get the hang of things." "Okay, go for it," said Safire. Casper began to run then leaped up and flew high in the air. "Wow, you can really see a lot from up here," said Safire. "Yep that is one of the good things about flying, said Casper plus you can get places faster." "Look down there by that tree, that looks like Viridian," said Safire. "Okay so do you want to go talk to her first?" asked Casper. "Yep, she lives with Ivy and Sara," said Safire. "I wonder why she is looking up at that tree." "One way to find out," said Casper then landed behind Viridian. "Hi Viridian what are you looking at?" asked Safire. "I just want to see if that coconut is ripe enough to pick," said Viridian without turning around. "Then I can get Ivy to fly up there and bring it down for me but I can't tell from down here. Too many leaves in the way." Safire jumped off Casper then walked up to the tree. "Safire! So nice to see you again. How are things underground?" asked Viridian. "Okay but I am going to be living in the palace now. I am sick of living down there," said Safire. "Well good thinking, I could never figure out why anyone would want to live down there when such a beautiful land was just above them," said Viridian. "Well I just started exploring Fae Land with Casper," said Safire. "So far everything looks amazing." "Casper, who is Casper?" asked Viridian. "I am," said Casper from behind Viridian. She turned around and saw Casper looking straight at her. "My goodness a unicorn, a blue unicorn at that. When did you get him?" asked Viridian. "Not long ago, God and Fillina sent him to me," said Safire. "Well then very nice to meet you Casper," said Viridian. "I wish Tillia was here to meet you but she is out playing with Pegasus somewhere." "I have known Tillia for a very long time," said Casper. "Pegasus too, we all used to play together. Tillia and Pegasus were always in love with each other until Tillia went missing." "Well they are back together now, said Viridian and are almost always together except when Hercules needs Pegasus for something." "So he is still with the big guy then. That is nice," said Casper. Well Sara and Hercules Hang out together a lot so Pegasus has lots of time to spend with Tillia now," said Viridian. "So is Ivy home? I want her to meet Casper," asked Safire. "Yep, she is in her room doing something on her lap top. That girl is always trying to learn about something new," said Viridian. "I will go get her for you and make it a surprise. Casper will be very unexpected to her for a change." Viridian went on the house. "What is a lap top?" asked Safire. "Beats me, those two words don't even go together to mean anything," said Casper. "Ivy, can you come out here please," yelled Viridian. "Okay, just a second," said Ivy. "She shut down the lap top then went into the kitchen. "Yes Viridian what's up?" asked Ivy. "I have a surprise for you outside but I don't want you reading me or anything else to find out what the surprise is," said Viridian. "I won't, that would ruin your surprise," said Ivy. "I love surprises as long as they are good ones." "Well this is a very good surprise, actually two," said Viridian. "Now cover your eyes with your hands and keep your eyes shut tight and I will lead you by the arm. No peeking!" "I won't, you can trust me," said Ivy. Viridian led Ivy outside and stopped right in front of Casper and Safire. Then she back away. "Okay Ivy open your eyes," said Viridian. "Can I take my hands off my eyes too?" asked Ivy. "Yes silly," said Viridian. "Ivy opened her eyes then saw Safire and Casper. "Safire! Your here with a... blue unicorn?" She rubbed her eyes. "Yep I am not seeing things definately a blue unicorn," said Ivy. Viridian smiled then went back in the house. "Hi Ivy, long time no see," said Safire. "I want you to meet Casper. God and Fillina sent him to me." "Really, is he magical like Tillia?" asked Ivy. "Yep he sure is and he can fly also," said Safire. "No way, where are his wings?" asked Ivy. "Doesn't need any, must be the magic," said Safire. "We flew over here, Zan told me where you lived. Casper, say hi to my friend Ivy." "Hello Ivy, I have seen a lot of forest sprites before but you are the prettiest of all," said Casper. "Ivy is Queen of the forest," said Safire. "And that she should be but there is something else inside that I can't recognise," said Casper. "So you can read people too?" asked Ivy. "Yes I am very deep reader, it is one of my talents," said Casper. "Well what I see is a very beautiful unicorn," said Ivy. She began to pat Casper's snout. "So soft and magical, it is all around you just like Tillia," said Ivy. "This is a big responsibiliy for you Safire. You can't be going underground all the time now. "I won't be, Ginger said I can live in the palace," said Safire. "I got sick of living down there. Lots more to see and do up here." "That is good news," said Ivy. So has he told you what he needs from you?" asked Ivy. "No, we haven't been together for very long," said Safire. Well get comfortable on the grass and I will fill you in but first I bet Casper is hungry," said Ivy. "Let me get him something from the backyard." Safire and Casper got down on the grass and Ivy came back with a bowl of fruit for Casper then sat down. "Yum fruit, my favorite," said Casper. "Veggies are my favorite too especially carrots." Ivy smiled. "Yep same as Tillia. Now first of all special unicorns do not eat like horses, said Ivy. They hate oats and grass and love people food except meat. They also got a love for sweets but they are treats only because sugar makes them hyper like a child." "Okay so I need to buy food then," said Safire. "Well not if your living in the palace," said Ivy. "Alieta will supply all the food that Casper needs plus Tulip always makes a bowl of food for Tillia when she is there which leads me to the next thing. Unicorns won't stay in horse stalls overnight. They can't stand the smell of horse poop I guess. A shelter has to be made like Tillia's at the stable but on the grounds inside the gates. When you are not around you won't have to worry about Casper at all. There will be a ton of elves in there, washing him and brushing his coat. Cleaning his hooves and making sure his teeth are clean." "Wow maybe I should live in the stable too," said Safire. Ivy laughted. "Casper will definately love all the attention but because you two are bonded now, all you have to do is think that you want him to come and in no time Casper will come and he can call for you in the same way. Unicorns also don't bother with horses because they don't talk and are not as smart, said Ivy. "I like talking to horses," said Casper. "Especially the mares. I can comunicate with them with my mind. Mares consider me to be very sexy." Ivy smiled, yes I imagine they would, just behave yourself as best as you can," said Ivy. "Remember most of the horses there belong to Alieta, the Queen of Fae Land." Casper went back to eating. "Okay so is there anything else I should know?" asked Safire. "Maybe but those are the important facts," said Ivy. "The flying thing is new to me so Casper can fill you in with anything else if needed. So where are you two off to next?" "We don't know," said Safire. "I have never explored Fae Land before." "Well it is very big and Alieta bought the land beside Fae Land so we are twice as big now," said Ivy. "You should ride around Eden first and let the heros living near by meet Casper. You could never see all of Fae Land properly in one day, even if you are flying." "Anyways, right next door to us is Ktara's place," said Ivy. "She is usually outside tending her gardens or in the kitchen cooking something good. Just walk over past the two coconut trees and you will probably see her doing something." "Okay, thanks Ivy, just one question before we leave," said Safire. "Viridian said you were doing stuff on a lap top. What is that?" "It is a computer I brought back from Granada," said Ivy. "Of coarse, what's a computer?" Ivy smiled. Well it is a type of machine that has a key board like a type writer but can do so much more. I will show it to you the next time you come back," said Ivy. "Okay so is it call a lap top, why?" asked Safire. "Because it can sit on your lap and the top opens up showing the screen and the key board," said Ivy. "Okay, I get that part but not the computer part yet," said Safire. "Does everyone have one here?" "Nope, just me so far," said Ivy. "Takes a bit to learn how to use it. Go talk to Ktara, she's not into high tech stuff at all like me." "Okay Casper lets go," said Safire. "You ate that entire bowl of fruit?" "Yep and it sure was good," said Casper. "Thanks Ivy. "Well that should hold you for a while," said Safire. "Propbably until supper time," said Ivy. "Supper at the palace is between five and six o'clock." "Um, when is that?" asked Safire. "When the sun starts getting low in the sky, usually your tummy will let you know," said Ivy then went back in the house. Safire and Casper walked past the coconut trees and saw Ktara outside doing what looked like exercises. They walked over to her and Safire said hi. "Wow Safire, nice to see you here, who is that amazing looking unicorn with you." "My name is Casper, Safire is my companion." "Really, that is so cool. Another unicorn in Fae Land!" said Ktara. "Are you two hungry? I just made a big triple layer choclate cake. Not really, I ate at the palace with Ginger and Casper just finished a big bowl of fruit at Ivy's place," said Safire. "Ivy said it would be a good idea to tell everyone I will be living in the palace now." "Really, for good, that is awesome," said Ktara. "Well welcome to the family then, we are all a big family of friends here." "Thank you, so what were you doing?" asked Safire. "Just some exercisies to keep in shape. You never know when a handsome man may come around," said Ktara. "I used to pray for a perfect man but Fillina and God gave me Casper," said Safire. "Much better than any man." "I quess so, being able to ride on a unicorn is way better," said Ktara. "He flies too," said Safire. "Casper flies! That is amazing," said Ktara. "Being able to fly around would be so much easier and faster. But then again I don't go to very many places other than to the market. Well if you two are full then I am taking that cake over to Ivy's place. Sara will be home soon so we can all have a big slice each. Come by again when you are hungry, I love cooking for people. Go see Carmen and Zatsuky next, they are usually out sun bathing at this time. They live just west of here." Then Ktara went back to the house to get the cake. "My she was very nice," said Casper. "Everyone I have met in Fae Land is very nice," said Safire. Safire got back on Casper and they took off west. "Okay that must be it," said Safire. "Two people laying on a blanket. Lets head down." Carmen saw them coming but wasn't sure who it was. "Look Zatsuky, looks like a flying blue horse with someone blue on it, headed right for us," said Carmen. "I wonder who that is?" "Who else do you know that is blue," said Zatsuky. "It has to be Safire but on a flying blue horse? That is new." They landed close to Carmen and Zatsuky then Safire jumped off of Casper. Camen and Zatsuky jumped up. "That is no flying blue horse, it's a blue unicorn," said Zatsuky. "Safire, where did you get such a magnificent being?" "Casper is a gift from heaven," said Safire. "All I had to do was pray for the perfect man for a long time and instead I got Casper." "Really, definately a couple steps up from a perfect man," said Carmen. "No man is perfect but I am the perfect woman." "You are not perfect," said Zatsuky. "You have lots of flaws." "Well close to perfect then," said Carmen. Zatsuky stared at her. "Okay so not that perfect but I am pretty, right?" asked Carmen. "Yes you are very pretty, said Casper, both of you are." "Oh I am liking Casper already," said Carmen." "Yep, me too," said Zatsuky. "So what's up with you Safire. You rarely come out of that place underground." "It's boring down there so I decided to live up here now where my friends are," said Safire. "Nice, so where are you going to live," asked Zatsuky. "Ginger said I can live in the palace with the other girls and Alieta," said Safire. "Excellent score," said Carmen. "Elves will do your laundry and you never have to do dishes or clean the house. You won't have to do any of that stuff." "Well I will find something to do there.I want to help out some way," said Safire. "Ya I guess, the girls there all do little things to help except Zan, she mostly sleeps," said Zatsuky. "I guess when you are a queen and been alive forever you get out of doing any chores." "Actually Zan cleans her own room and won't let the elves do it. She also tells the most amazing stories," said Carmen. "Yes Zan was one of the first sanctioned beings created, long before humans and even unicorns," said Casper. "She told me lots of fun stories until the humans came around and started hunting her kind. That is when the six special unicorns were made." "So there are six like you then?" asked Carmen. "Yep first was Tillia, then me, then Gracie, Tabby, Sandie and Elizabeth. Each has different main tallents but all of us have magical horns," said Casper. "So you are the only male then," said Safire. "Yep but there are regular male unicorns," said Casper. Most regular girl unicorns are very picky and take forever to matched up with a male unicorn. That that's why I like the girl horses. They find me very handsome and sexy." "You little devil. You brought down your standards a couple of notches and you scored big time," said Zatsuky. "Very smart." "Yep I know how to treat the ladies," said Casper. "So what are you two doing, just flying around checking things out?" asked Carmen. Ya sort of, we are just exploring Fae Land and seeing where everything is," said Safire. "You should get Casper to meet Sakura. You know what she is like," said Carmen. "Yes she is quite the little girl, said Safire. Very unique and very funny. How do I get to her place?" "Easy, just keep flying west until you get to the woods then hang a left and go to the elf village. They live in the first biggest house," said Carmen. "Okay that will be fun, said Safire. "Nice seeing you two again." Nice meeting you two," said Casper then Safire jumped on Casper then they flew off. "That was nice to see Safire again," said Carmen."Yes and Casper was quite nice also," said Zatsuky. "I wonder if the other four unicorns are taken." "Don't even think about it," said Carmen. "Do you know how much it costs just to feed a unicorn alone plus building a new separate shelter for it." "Oh ya, forget that," said Zatsuky. "Okay so there is the woods so lets go left now and see where the elf village is," said Safire. "Look down there at those two small colourful houses," said Casper. "I wonder who lives there." "No one I know yet," said Safire. "Maybe Yeanny knows who lives in those two places." Who is Yeanny?" asked Casper. "Sakura's mother sort of. She created Sakura, she's a wizard," said Safire. "A wizard like Merlin? I like Merlin, he always made sugar cubes for me to suck on, said Casper." "Well much younger and prettier than Merlin," said Safire. " I hope she can make sugar cubes," said Casper. "Probably but you just ate," said Safire. "I know but they are just sugar," said Casper. "They are a treat and don't take up any room in my belly." "I suppose, okay this must be the elf village but all the houses look the same size," said Safire. "Maybe we pasted it," said Casper. "Yes probably, it's suppose to be the first big house," said Safire. "Turn around and this time lets pay attention. Okay there, just up ahead, Carmen should of said it was the very first house in the elf village," said Safire. "That house is twice as big as all the others, it must be the place, land in the backyard." They landed and Safire got off of Casper. Well let me check and see if they are home," said Safire. "I'll go around the front and knock on the door." "There is a door right there, knock on it," said Casper. "No best to knock on the front door. Back doors are more private," said Safire. She walked around to the front door and knocked on it. In a moment Yeanny opened the door. "Well hello Safire nice to see you again. How can I help you?" asked Yeanny. "Well I wanted Casper to meet Sakura and you too of coarse," said Safire. "Who is Casper?" asked Yenny. "My unicorn, God gave him to me this morning and we are just flying around exploring Fae Land and meeting people," said Safire. "I am kinda showing him off to everyone because he is so cool. Yesterday I was under ground and today I am flying around on my own unicorn. I haven't had this much fun since we fought all those orc a long time ago." "Okay, I get it and your excited so just relax," said Yeanny. "So you said Casper can fly?" "Yep sure can," said Safire. "Sure beats walking or running." "Yeanny laughted. "Well come in silly. Sakura just went out back with Lulu to play. "Oh oh, that is where Casper is," said Safire. "Well this will be fun to watch, said Yeanny. "Lulu acts almost exactly like Sakura. They are best friends and do everything together and both are very fast talkers plus naturally funny. "Okay this will be fun to watch," said Safire. "Yep, lets watch then from the kitchen door," said Yeanny.
