"Hey Casper, wait out here. I'm going in the palace to pick out a nice sword," said Safire. "It will be supper time soon anyways." Then Safire ran in the palace. "Aiko walked over to Alieta. "Is it true what you said about Safire?" "You could hear us talking from over here?" asked Alieta. These may not be hybreed sprite ears but they are elf ears and can hear good too," said Aiko. "So what about Safire did you over hear me saying?" asked Alieta. "The part about her being able to take care of the entire army by herself," said Aiko. "Well yes that is very true," said Alieta. "Safire is the strongest of the Blue Fae. She is at least twenty times stronger than a male human and is an expert with a sword plus extremely fast on her feet. I have seen her in action a couple of times. The latest was when we were being attacked by an army of Orcs. Must of been over a thousand of them. I sent a messenger down the tunnel to get Safire's help and she came out of the tunnel with all of the Blue Fae. They hate Orcs with a passion and she ordered me and my troops to stay out of the battle and let them have their fun." "Fun! Fighting Orcs was fun to her?" asked Aiko. "They are huge." "Yes and slow compared to the Blue Fae, said Alieta. "I watched her and her army running and jumping all over the place amoung the Orcs. Heads were flying off everythere. In less than thirty minutes the Orcs tried to retreat but Safire yelled no mercy, kill them all then they chased them down and cut the heads off every last Orc. Once I saw Safire jump up and spin cutting off five Orc heads at once. When all was done we had a celebration and I had food brought out for those that didn't go back down the tunnel. Safire stayed the longest telling her jokes to everyone and from that day on we became very good friends." "That is an amazing story, said Aiko. "So with her standing beside you and sprites above, you are in no danger at all," said Aiko. "True, don't even need the sprites but I don't want Safire killing an evil elven king, that is the job of the winged army. Safire is fearless and when you are friends with her she will stop at nothing to eliminate the threat and can do it fast," said Alieta. "Well I am going to sleep well at night knowing she is just across the hall from us", said Aiko. "I have to tell Tiffany that story." Then she ran back. Alieta walked up the steps some and sat down. She saw Lilly flying over so she called Trigger over. "Yes Alieta, you called?" asked Trigger. "Look who is coming, do you recognize her?" asked Alieta. "Trigger looked up just as Lilly was landing. Lilly looked down and saw Trigger staring at her tilting her head back and forth. "Trigger, is that you?" asked Lilly. "I remeber now, your Lilly that makes the good food with her wand," said Trigger. "Do you still like to play?" "Well yes but now I am older and have lots if things to do with my sisters," said Lilly. "I wondered what happened to you. "One day I came to see you and I was told you just vanished." "Ya, after my care taker didn't need me anymore Gabriel sent me back to where the little fairies lived. That is where I met Koko, we became best friends," said Trigger. Lilly looked at Alieta and saw Koko laying beside her. "Looks like she is keeping an eye on you," said Lilly. "Yep we do everything together," said Trigger. "We have new care takers now. They are princesses like you." "Well I will make you two anything you want for supper," said Lilly. "Um, I am not hungy. Koko and I ate a big plate of spaghetti and mearballs together not long ago in the dining room," said Trigger. That will do us until morning. "Really, you don't have to eat every few hours anymore?" asked Lilly. "Nope Gabriel fixed me, only have to eat twice a day now," said Trigger. "I'm hungry yelled Alieta, what's on the menu today?" "Tulip asked me to set up the table and it is going to be a surprise. It will be good what ever it is," said Lilly. "I am sure it will be," said Alieta.

After Lilly made the table appear, Tulip showed up and made something different this time. "These are called chicken wraps," said Tulip. "Ivy showed me them on her cell phone and seemed easy to make and easy to eat. Inside each thin bread wrap is chunks of chickem, lettus, chopped up bacon, cheddar cheese and a special white sauce. Two should be enough for each of you. I will make sundaes for desert." "Those sound yummy," said Tiffany. "They are, my mother made them all the time for me," said Aiko. "You have to keep one hand on the bottom though or else when you bite into it some of the insides will end up on your lap." Everyone grabbed a plate and took two each plus Lilly made fruit drinks for everyone. Lilly watched Trigger and Koko walking around saying hi to everyone eating and of coarse they got peices of chicken from everyone. "They said they were full," said Lilly. "They are really good, of coarse they are going to have some," said Tulip, "Try one." "Lilly took a bite from one and agreed they were very good." After dinner was over and everyone that wanted desert was finished, everyone went and welcomed Aiko to Fae Land. Trigger stayed right beside Aiko showing everyone that they belonged to each other. The rest of the day went by without any problems and as it began to get dark everyone started to go in the palace and get ready for bed. Safire went in with Aiko and the two sisters plus their pets. Once they reached their rooms Safire said good night to them and went in her room. Inside their bedroom, Tiffany gave Sabrina a camisole to wear then Aiko and her went to the other dresser and took out two bigger camisoles. When they turned around Sabrina was already fast asleep on her bed with Koko sleeping beside her and Trigger was sleeping on Aiko's bed. "Well that didn't take long," said Aiko. "It has been a busy day for everyone," said Tiffany. "Are you worried at all about what is going to happen tomorrow?" "Not really," said Aiko. "With super elf standing beside Alieta, she wont get hurt and if my Dad ends up dead which I hope he does, then my Mom will become the ruling queen of Triland. She will change things very fast to the better." "Your going to miss your mother, I can tell," said Tiffany. Yes I will but I made the decision to steal the staff and come here so I will live with that decision," said Aiko. "Besides I have lots of friends now and a new family." Tiffany smiled. Your mother will always be family and besides we have Pegasus here and he can fly you home to visit in a couple of hours," said Tiffany. Pegasus is real and lives here too? asked Aiko. Yep plus Hercules and a bunch more amazing people, said Tiffany. Okay lets get some sleep. Breakfast is at seven but I have first dibs on the shower." "How if the first one up showers first," said Aiko. "Okay, I can live with that," said Tiffany then they both went to their beds and fell asleep.

The next morning at day break Safire got dressed in her elf outfit then grabbed her sword that she cleaned up nicely the day before then went to the dinning room where she found Alieta sipping on her morning coffee. "Okay Alieta, so how do I look?" asked Safire. "You look like Safire in elf clothes," said Alieta. "Ya but I got a sword now," said Safire. "Don't I look scary now?" "Not to me," said Alieta. "I have seen you many times with a sword." "How about now, as Safire tried to make some scary faces." "Alieta started to laugh. Stop it Safire your going to hurt your face. Sit down and have a coffee with me." "Okay, I guess when your as good looking as me, a scary face is out of the question," said Safire then sat down. Now remember you are there just as backup and a scare tactic," said Alieta. "I know but I can't make a scary face," said Safire. "Just stand at attention with a plain face and stare at the king and don't move your eyes off of him. That will intimidate him a lot. Slightly move your sword some as if you are ready to defend me," said Alieta. "Hey that is good," said Safire. "You really know your stuff. Just then Jazmen entered the dining room. "There are four messengers or scouts on their way," said Jazmen. "The king and the rest of the troops are holding back and it looks like the queen is with them." "Okay see what they want," said Alieta. "I need that King in front of me and Safire." "Cool, Safire is joining in on the fun too," said Jazmen. "Yep and I got a sword, do I look scary?" asked Safire as she pointed it at Jazmen." Jazmen smiled, "You always look scary Safire," said Jazmen then she left the room. "She didn't mean that, did she," said Safire. "Nope, we all know and love you Safire. You can't scare us," said Alieta. Outside Jazmen waited for the scouts to get close to Fae Land then flew down and ordered them to stop. "Who are you, we are under orders from the King of Triland to get who ever is in charge of this village and bring them for an audience." Your kidding right," said Jazmen. "You have never heard of Fae Land, the most powerful nation in the world. As for me I am the general of Fae Land's massive army." The elves all looked at each other then one said, "Well maybe the leader can come out here and we will tell the king and queen to meet out here." Nope, Queen Alieta only has audiences in front of her palace. Tell the King and Queen to come to her and not to ride their horses past that point over there. Horses are not allowed on the palace grounds," said Jazmen that was trying his hardest not to laugh. "Wow, lots of rules," said one of the elves. "Okay we will be back soon but our King is not going to like this." Then they turned and headed back. "Poor elves have no clue what they are up against," thought Jazmen.

Jazmen went back to the dining room where Alieta and Safire were just getting up to leave. "Okay, they are going back to get their King and Queen," said Jazmen. "I told them horses were not allowed on the palace grounds and you only do meetings in front of the palace so they will be on foot. I am pretty sure I scared the heck out of those four elves." "What you scared them? How did you do that?" asked Safire. I need to know." "I just kept saying no to their demands then told them my rules and kept looking back and forth at each of them," said Jazmen. "I got the feeling they didn't want to be here especially when they saw the size of the palace." "That is all you did to make them scared of you?" asked Safire. "Look my friend, you can be very scary at times and I have seen you scary, said Jazmen. When you see an Orc, man look out. Just hearing the word Orc puts a very mean scary look on your face." "So just think of that King as an Orc," said Alieta. "That will make him scared of you." "Okay I will try that," said Safire. Man I hate Orcs!" Then the three of them headed out. Jazmen flew over to the edge of the Bad Lands and saw that the king was bringing his entire small army of elves with him. She flew back and let Alieta know then flew up above her where there were several other sprites hovering above Alieta and Safire. I a few minutes they saw the King and the Queen walking towards them. "Oh good he brought a aword," said Alieya. "Now remember let Jazmen kill him if he raises that sword at me." "I know, I can follow plans too you know," said Safire. When they reached the two of them they stopped about four feet from them. "Hello I am King George of Triland and this is my wife. We are looking for our daughter that stole something valuable to me. Have you seen her. She looks a lot like my wife." "Yes I have," said Alieta. "Oh so do you know where she is?" asked King George. "Yes I do," said Alieta. "So where is she," asked King George. "In the palace having breakfast with her friends," said Alieta. A smile came on the Queen's face. "Tell her to come out here and bring that staff with her," said King George. "No," said Alieta. King George got an angry look on his face but kept looking at Safire that was staring at him looking very angry. "You have no right to refuse me. That is our daughter and it is my staff that she stole. I demand you bring her out now!," said King George in a loud voice. Then he looked at Safire again that gave Alieta a chance to gester to the Queen to look up. When she did that smile came back on her face. "First of all she told me all about how you have been killing elves with that wizard staff. I should have you put in irons and put on trial for murder," said Alieta. Fae lives are sacred and anyone found killing one is just as bad as an evil wizard or demon." "What you have no authority to do that to me." I will bring in my army in here and have them seach every corner of this palace until I find her and my staff. Anyone tries to stop us we will kill them." "Alieta had him good and mad now but still he hadn't raised his sword at her. "Well there is no staff anymore," said Alieta. "I had it distroyed." "I don't believe you," said the King. "That staff can't be distroyed. The wizard that sold in to me said so." "Believe what you want but it is gone and turned to ashes." "That's it, I am tired of dealing with a smart ass sprite. We are coming in," said King George. Look at the size of this palace, said the Queen. "Don't you think she has an army many times bigger than yours." "Shut up woman, said King George as he smacked her on the face knocking her to the ground, then turned to walk away. Safire jumped over to help the Queen up but not before putting her leg out tripping the King making him fall on his face. "You will pay for that you blue freak, Come wife he ordered." "No, I am staying here to see my daughter," said the Queen. "Have it your way," said the King, "You will die with the rest of them. Then he walked away. "Are you okay" asked Safire. "Ya I will be fine, said the Queen. "That is not the first time he has hit me."

"Well I did my job. I am going in and changed back into my normal clothes," said Safire. "Nice to meet you Queen. Beleive me it took everything I had to stop from ripping his head off with my bare hands when he hit you," Then Safire ran in the palace. "That girl, I sensed is special some how, can she really do what she said?" asked the Queen. "Yes she is special," said Alieta. "She is my friend and the Queen of the Blue Fae. A very powerful and strong race of elves. Safire is the strongest and fastest of them all and could very easily do as she said." "A queen! Well she sure was scary looking, I am Queen Katilina." "Well just call me Alieta. I don't like titles, around here, we are all equals in Gods eyes and mine. I just do my best to take care of everyone." Just then an elf came running toward them carring the crown." "Queen Katilina. The king is dead, shot through the heart by just one arrow from above. He saw some sprites flying above us and ordered everyone to fire at them. They were out of range and there was like a hundred of them. We refused to commit suicide so he grabbed a bow and started shooting arrows at them. Suddenly he fell to the ground and when I turned him over there was the arrow, a perfect shot." The elf got down on one knee and raise the crown to Queen Katilina. "You are our Queen and ruler now. God bless the Queen. Queen Katilina went to take the crown then stopped. "Wait," she said then turned to Alieta. "You are the Queen yet you don't wear a crown, why is that?" asked Queen Katilina. "I only wear my crown during weddings and special gatherings," said Alieta. "A crown represents more things than I like and besides it messes up my hair." Queen Katilina smiled then turned back to the elf. "I don't want it. Take it back to the palace," said the Queen. "But we need you to rule," said the elf. "Oh I will rule but not with that crown, I will rule with my heart. And no more Queen Katilina. adress me as Katilina only." The elf smiled then stood up. "What should I tell the others?" asked the elf. "Well Alieta, this is your land, can they come in and rest for a while?" asked Katilina. "We have been traveling for three days barely stopping to rest or eat." "Yes you all may come and be my guests," said Alieta. "You are so kind," said the elf then ran back to tell the others. "So my daughter, she is here correct?" asked Katilina. "Yep, she sure is," said Alieta. Alieta waved to Ginger that was looking out the window. "She will be out in a few moments. I hope she will stay with us seeing I made her a citizen of Fae Land plus she has new friends here and a pet." "A pet, what kind of pet?" asked Kailina. "A Precious pet given to her by the angel Gabriel," said Alieta.

"Here she comes now," said Alieta. "I will give you two some space to talk." Aiko saw her mother and ran over to her followed by Trigger. "Mom, I missed you so much. Tell me is he gone for good?" asked Aiko, "Yes, dead as a door nail," said Katilina. "My darling daughter, I have been so worried about you," said Katilina. "What you did was very brave but very dangerous too." Well I think it was God that guided me to do it and brought me here," said Aiko. My, who have you got with you?" asked Katilina. "This is Trigger," said Aiko. "She is a Preicious and very special tiger cub that an angel sent to me. I am her care taker." "So I heard from Alieta but I wasn't expecting something so exotic and cute," said Katilina. "What does exotic mean?" asked Trigger. "My goodhess, she talks," said Katilina, "Yep, does she ever and can be quite funny too," said Aiko. "You are exotic Trigger, wild jungle animals are called exotic." "Oh okay but I am not wild, just playful," said Trigger. "Does your Mom like to play, she is tall like you, very pretty tp like you, can I call you Mom too?" Katrilina smiled. "Yes you can. Maybe Koko would like to call you Mom too said Trigger. She is my best friend." "Koko, who is that?" asked Katilina. "You see those two girls over there, they are sisters," said Aiko. "The little dragon beside them is Koko. Theire parents are dead because of Dad. They were able to get away and traveled here and Alieta took them in and now me too. We all live together in a big room with three beds and stuff. We are like a family." "I see, so I take it you want to stay here," said Katilina. "Well I will leave with you if you ask me too but look around you Mom," said Aiko. There is magic everywhere here with fairies and unicorns. Lots of elves and sprites. So many other things that I haven't seen yet. It is like a wonder land of fantasy here in Fae Land. Have you ever seen anywhere so beautiful." "Well I can safely say I haven't, not even close and it is oviously safe here," said Katilina. Yes you can stay but I will come and visit from time to time once I get things settled back home." "Your the best Mom, said Aiko then gave here mom a hug. "Now you go back with your friends so I can talk to Alieta again," said Katilina. "Tell her I want to talk a bit more." "Okay," said Aiko. "I can stay, I can stay!" she said as she skipped back to Tiffany and Sabrina. "Can I stay too Mom, asked Trigger that was still standing at Katilina's feet. "I would love to take you home with me but I am going to be too busy to take care of you and you belong here so yes you can stay also," said Katilina. "Yeah, I can stay too," said Trigger that tried to skip back like Aiko but was not so good at skipping with four legs. Katilina started laughing.

Alieta walked over to Katilina. "Aiko says you want to talk," said Alieta. "Lets do that on the couch." They both sat down and Katilina started. "There are a few things about you that I have never seen in a Queen before and some of them confuse me some," said Katilina. "Well being a Queen has never been my main interest," said Alieta. "Before being crowned Queen here I was the leader of the winged army of sprites. At that time things were very different everywhere and I had never even seen a Queen before so when I became Queen I just continued acting the way I did with my fellow sprites and elves." "And what way was that?" asked Katilina. "Well with love and respect," said Alieta. "As armies, mostly human, tried to invade Fae Land over and over again I led the most powerful army of sprites that could attack from the air out of range of any weapons. I refused to let any people in Fae Land to get hurt so even though there was an army of elves that were experts with the bow and arrow, I made them stay just on the borders of Fae Land in case someone got through. As time went by my army of sprites got bigger, from all the sprites in Cumberland where most sprites came from. After many battles word got out that Fae Land had an invinsible army and could not be defeated so the attacks stopped. Not one sprite or elf ever got injured or killed over all those years." "My goodness, no wonder the people here wanted you as their Queen, said Katilina. "Well that was mostly Gingers' doing, said Alieta. Which one is that, Is she out here?" asked Katilina. "Yep, that very cute elf patting Trigger," said Alieta. "She has a soft spot for animals." "An elf is responsible for you becoming queen, how so?" asked Katilina. "Well she is no ordinary elf, said Alieta. She befriended me back when the battles were going on and always made sure I had food and water to keep up my strength alond with my army. Just lately I found out that she is one of the oldest elves around and unkowingly is responsible for many amazing things that we all take for granted. After the attacks stopped Ginger didn't want me to go back to Cumberland so she gathered a bunch of elves together and had them bring the old palace back to life after being empty for over a hundred years after the prior queen died. Fae Land had no queen for that long." "Why is that?" asked Katilina. "Well that I am not so sure of and before I came to Fae Land, but that is why the human kings wanted to take over Fae Land that is very rich in minerals and food," said Alieta. After the palace was cleaned up inside Ginger secretly sent out messengers, both elves and sprites, to spread the word that a vote was needed by everyone to make me Queen of Fae Land. The next day Ginger sent Jazmen to come and get me and made up some excuse for me to go to the palace grounds. When we reached the palace grounds I saw something that I will never forget. There were hundreds of people all gathered in front of the palace including my entire army. Ginger was on the steps and I flew over to see what the heck was going on. When I stood in front of all these people that must of been every person that lived in Fae Land, everyone went silent. Then Ginger looked at me with those big eyes of hers and smiled. Then she looked at the crowd and started to speak and said. "Today we the people of Fae Land are gathered here to vote for a new Queen. I looked around and saw no one else around except Ginger and I. Then she said "I have nominated the most amazing person that in my opinion that is best suted for this job and will never let the people of Fae Land down. She has the biggest heart I have ever seen and has an undying love of life for all. All those that want Alieta, captain of the winged army to be our Queen, say I and raise your arms and hands. The entire crowd yelled I and all arms and hands reached for the sky. Ginger turned to me and said, "The people of Fae Land love you Alieta and trust you with their lives. Will you take the job?" That is when it happened," said Alieta. "What happened," asked Katilina. "I started to cry, I had never cried before and I felt this amazing feeling in my chest. "Well," said Ginger. "We are all waiting. I looked at Ginger that was smiling at me. You are a sneaky one and I love you with all my heart. Yes I will take the job, I said to her. "Good now tell them," said Ginger. I looked out at everyone then yelled, "Yes I will take the job. I will be your Queen". The crowd went nuts cheering and jumping, hugging each other. Then Jazmen got on the steps holding the crown and placed it on my head. Then said, "With the power invested in me as second in command of the army. I make you Queen of Fae Land. Long live the queen". The crowd all started chanting long live the Queen over and over again. I looked at Jazmen and said. "You were in on this too?" "Yep, your the best Alieta and look they all love you," said Jazmen. And she was right. They were all so happy I was now their Queen. Then Ginger said, "You know what happens after a corrination?" Yes I do and I turned to everyone and yelled out, "Let the party begin!" That was my first party followed by many more. Katlina was all teary eyed and looked at Alieta. That is the most amazing story I have ever heard," said Katilina. You didn't inherit the title you were chosen by the people. That is very special and not heard of anywhere. "So is there any other things you want to know about me?" asked Alieta.  "No, that pretty much answerd my questions and cleared any confusion I had," said Katilina.

Katilina stood up. "Well here comes my elves, I better go over there and tell them they can rest for a while here," said Katilina. "lieta saw Ivy flying to the cove and stopped when she saw everyone out here. "Wait for a few minutes, I want you to meet someone very dear and important to me," said Alieta. "Really who?" asked Katilina. "Ivy, she is a very powerful forest sprite and is the Queen of the forest and plants of Fae Land. "I have never seen one before but I was told that they just live in the forest and talk to the trees," said Katilina. "Ivy is so much more than that plus extremely smart but she keeps that hidden from most," said Alieta. "I was told that her inner engery is at it's maximum now." "Energy, what kind of energy?" asked Katilina. "Not completely sure but she is very magical unlike any other sprite of any kind." Ivy flew down and said hi to Alieta. "Hi Ivy, what brings you here so early?" asked Alieta with a smile. "Me, what about all these people," said Ivy. "I was on my way to check on the magic in Eden when I saw everyone out here and lots more close to the stable. Usually just you and Ginger are out her at this time." "Well we had a situation this morning but thanks to Jazmen, Safire and myself, it has been all taken care of." "Oh okay, so who is your friend?" asked Ivy. "Have a look at her," said Alieta. "Tell me what you see." "Well is it all right with her. I already can tell she is okay. Can I look?" asked Ivy to Katilina. "Sure, of coarse you can look at me," said Katilina. "No I will look into you," said Ivy. "I am already looking at you silly." "Look into me, sure why not I am game," said Katilina. Ivy, read Katilina for a few seconds then smiled and said done that is enough. "I told you she was okay." "Ya I know I am okay," said Katilina. "Tell her what you found out," said Alieta. "Is that okay with you Katilina?" asked Ivy. "I didn't go that deep and skipped over the very personal stuff, well most of it anyways but I won't say that stuff out load." "Well you can read minds some I see," said Kayilina. "You know my name, go ahead what else did you find out about me?" Well you are the Queen of a place called Triland and just very recently became the ruler like almost now. Your husband died with an arrow in his heart, you hated him anyways." Katilina was shocked. "Go on, this is unbelievable," said Katilina. "Well you have one daughter that you love with all your heart. Her name is Aiko and she is here now. You came here to find just her and cared nothing about some staff ,even though your husband didn't want you to come but you threatened to cut him off what ever that means. You are very pure and clean inside with no secrets except that you are in love with a man named Prince Charles. He is very manly and charming. You consider him the most handsome man in the world. Okay I better stop there, said Ivy. I think I said too much already." "No, that was fine and remarkable," said Katilina. You only looked in me for a few seconds and you saw all that." "You are magical, like Alieta said." "Yep,and I can disappear at will plus fly very fast, faster than all other sprites except Alieta, she is a hybreed sprite and the fastest of all of us, strongest too. So can I go meet your daughter, she is the same age as me? That is her over there beside the new Precious, right?" "Yes please do," said Katilina.

"Wow, she is something else," said Katilina. "Very beautiful too." "Most people here say she is the prettiest girl in Fae Land, said Alieta but she says everyone in Fae Land is beautiful and she is not special." "She is modest too then," said Katilina. "Well Ivy has a magic to her that she doesn't realise she has," said Alieta. "Really, what is that?" asked Katilina. "She has a way of making a person feel very good about themselves and it stays with them. It may just be the way she talks to everyone she meets. Ivy never lies. I believe she can't. If she does lie at first she comes clean right away. It's like she talks with her mind, heart and mouth at the same time. To me that must be magic because I can do it for a bit but Ivy does it all the time," said Alieta. "Yes she did make me feel very good when she told me all those things about me," said Katilina. "So this Prince Charles, what is the story about him?" asked Alieta. "Charles is a very handsome man my age, said Katilina. We were dating until the a-hole forced me to marry him. I plan on marring him and having lots of babies. Aiko will love having brothers and sisters. Okay I best go, my elves are getting restless. Well tell them to put the horses in the stable and my elves will feed and water them and I will get Ivy to tell a fairy to come and make some food for them," said Alieta. Then you come back here and we are going to have a royal breakfast together in my dining room." "Really, a royal breakfast," said Katilina. "Well that is what Sally calls it. She is amazing in the kitchen and I put her in charge of it but she still likes to come out and be the waitress," said Alieta. Ivy walked up to Aiko and introduced herself. "Wow I love your hair Aiko," said Ivy. "Really, thanks," said Aiko. "Your a forest sprite correct." "Yep sure am, I take care of things here," said Ivy. "Are all forest sprites as beautiful as you?" asked Aiko. "I guess so, everyone here is beautiful,said Ivy and you Sabrina, did you grow a bit since yesterday?" "I don't no, you think I grew some? No boobs yet and still messy hair though," said Sabrina. "Well the boobs will come soon but your hair looks perfect to me," said Ivy. "Very natural and qute pretty. Frames your pretty face perfectly." Sabrina smiled. "I like you forest sprite Ivy. You make me feel good," said Sabrina. "Well I never lie, I found that if you lie, eventually the truth comes out and then you have a real problem to deal with," said Ivy. "And this must be Trigger, my you are a cutie too like Koko." "Yep Koko is my best friend," said Trigger, "I remember you now, said Koko, You are the girl that read me and made me remember how to talk again." "Yes that was me and where I first met Tiffany. Where is she anyways?" asked Ivy. "Ginger wanted her help to set up a room for Aiko's mom. She figures Alieta will ask her to stay the night," said Sabrina. "Ginger figures right, said Ivy. She went down on one knee then began to scratch under Trigger's neck that made her start to purr. "I'm next, said Koko. That looks like it feels good." "Oh ya it feels purrrfect," said Trigger.

"Well I best be going to the cove and check on things," said Ivy as she stood up. "Ivy can I see you before you go?" asked Alieta. "Okay, be right there," said Ivy. "Now I will be back and we will play some and I know of some toys that you two will like." "Toys, what are toys?" asked Trigger. "Very fun things, you will see," said Ivy then walked over to Alieta. "Isn't she wonderful and she likes to play too," said Trigger. "Ya and she is going to bring toys with her what ever they are," said Koko. Sabrina turned around to Aiko. "We have two nuts for pets, don't we," said Sabrina. "Yes, it seems that way," said Aiko. "Ivy Katilina's elves have been traveling for three days and I want you to ask a fairy to come and make them some food to eat," said Alieta. "I know it is early but they are hungry and thirsty." "Okay I will find someone," said Ivy. "You know fairies are always ready to please." Thanks Ivy so will we see you at lunch time?" asked Alieta. "Yep I promissed Koko and Trigger I would come back and play with them. I think they really like me," said Ivy. Then she flew off to the cove. "Everyone really likes you Ivy," said Alieta. Katilina came back and said every thing is organized now. "They are very happy with me being their Queen now and even happier to know food is on the way." "Good, afterwards they can all rest and take a nap if they like," said Alieta. "Now follow me into the palace and lets eat. I missed breakfast and I am starving." They both went into the palace then down the hall to the dining room. "This place is huge inside and so clean," said Katilina. "My palace is small and dusty. George was too cheep to hire enough elves to keep things cleaner." "Okay here we are," said Alieta. Have a seat and I will call for Sally." "Sally heard her name called and came out to see who it was. "Hi Alieta, must of missed you this morning," said Sally I see you brought a quest." "Yes I had something to take care of early this morning," said Alieta. "This is Katilina, the Queen of  Triland. "Wow, Aiko's Mom, very nice to meet you," said Sally. "Very nice to meet you too," said Katilina. Alieta told me you are very good in the kitchen." "Yep, I know a thing or two about cooking," said Sally. "So will it be the royal breakfast special Alieta?" "You bet and double up on the bacon," said Alieta. "Okay, the girls were down here earlier and all had the regular breakfast special," said Sally. Koko and Trigger both had the same and didn't leave a crumb. I just haven't figured out how to make it easier for them to eat in here. The table is too high and they have to stand on the chairs just to reach the plate. They are very polite and very cute so I don't want to feed them on the floor." "Why don't you buy them a children's tea table set," said Katlina. Aiko used to love her's until she grew out of it." "That is a great idea, said Sally. I wonder why I never thought of that." "Well have you been a mother?" asked Katilina. "No, never," said Sally. "Well when you have your own children you will get familar with the things available for little people," said Katilina. "Oh it would be so nice to have my own children" said Sally. "Anyways, two royal specials coming up." Then Sally went back to the kichen. "She sounded like it was unlikely she would ever have children," said Katilina. "Well there are next to no male elves here and those that are here are taken," said Alieta. "Well that is definately a problem," said Katilina. "There are pleanty of male elves among the three clans back home. Mostly single due to the fueds that have been going on. Leave it with me and let me get this fueding stopped first. From what I have seen so far there lots of very pretty girl elves here." "Yes like Ivy says, everyone in Fae Land is beautiful." "What are they fueding about?" asked Alieta. "Actually, I don't think they remember anymore," said Katilina. "They have been feuding for so long now, it has just become a part of life to them." Sally came out with their breakfast. "Here we go, enjoy. Did I hear you correctly. You have boys where you are from?" asked Sally. "Yes we do, said Katilina. You have good ears." "Yep elf ears. I don't care what he looks like, he just has to be nice to me and love children," said Sally. "I am not getting any younger you know." "Sally, your not even a hundred years old yet," said Alieta. "I know, but I am still not getting any younger," said Sally. "Wait until I tell my friends boys are coming. Then she went back into the kitchen. "Um does she have many friends," asked Kayilina. "Oh yes, tons," said Alieta. "Well I better move fast with this then," said Katilina. "Me and my big mouth." "No, it was your big heart talking," said Alieta. "Okay lets eat, this looks great."
