The Plan

 They all got seated and Alieta started to talk. Now we found out that our Ivy has grown some new special talents. Because she doesn't disappear any more that energy may have turned into a positive power that lets her feel and see what people are thinking and feeling. So she can read minds now, asked Tempressa. Yes but she doesn't invade our minds, Ivy figures what you are thinking is none of her business but she cannot control the feeling of bad and evil in someone, just like when when Zatsuky's sword begins to glow red. Now earlier today a man came and tried to trick me to see some land he wanted to sell and come with him but Ivy stopped him and saw he was lying and was now who he said he was. She knew he was evil and went very scary looking stopping the man from touching me. Jazmen pointed her bow and arrow at him and threatened to kill him but he just vanished. Ivy saved my life but also said the evil person was still in Fae Land. I got Jazmen to have her winged army to search all of Fae Land for this person. Ginger and I went to this den where we fell asleep after a while. Ivy busted in and started screaming and cry out Zutsuky's name and said he is going to kill her soon. That is when I screamed for Pippa to go to Zatsuky's place because a wizard is going to kill her in her sleep. Pippa said nothing and got there. Now I am not sure what happened but she saved Zatsuky's life and almost died herself. Well the wizard appeared too fast for me to grab my sword in time after Pippa woke me up and had his hand pointed at me so Pippa flew at him pushed him hard but he grabbed Pippa and slammed her to the floor, said Zatsuky. It gave me the time to grab my sword but I just cut one of his arms before he vanished. Okay so that is how Pippa got hurt saving Zatsuky, said Alieta. Now if it wasn't for Gabriel, Pippa would of died in a few minutes but she pleaded to God to spare her soul. God spoke and had Pippa's soul stay with her but the body is going to have to heal on it's own. So God saved Pippa for us, said Alexa. Yes he said there was too much love around her to let such a loving soul to die before her time. Now if you think about it, if Ivy didn't sense what was happening at Zatsuky's place, she would be dead right now and maybe Carmen also and no one of would of known until someone went over there to visit. Now don't ask me how Ivy can sense stuff like that because I don't know and don't care. That is where we are at now.

Pippa has to heal and the doctor is there to see what may be broken and Ivy is helping him, said Alieta. So what about Oaklynn and Taiyo? asked Alexa. They have been told and there are armed sprites and elves guarding that family also. They wanted to stay and keep Colin and Starlite safe. Now this is not a dumb wizard. He is very smart and fast. We have never dealt with a wizard like this before, so we need some kind of plan to get rid of him for good. Now put your heads together and try to figure something out, said Alieta. They all started to talk among each other. We need a trap of some sort, said Alexa. Ya but what kind of trap, said Carmen. I don't think any of us want to be the bait. May I join the huddle? They looked up and saw it was Merlin. You bet Merlin, said Alexa. Okay you are correct Alexa. We need to trap him, said Merlin. This is a very powerful wizard from a very old time that I thought was long dead. He has no name that I can remember and has no specific form that I know of either. That can happen when a wizard gets too absorbed into black magic. Kind of a shape shifter I suppose but he is mortal and can be killed. Now I can become the bait. You? He won't go after you? said Alexa. No but he will go after you Alexa. Merlin waved his arms and turned into Alexa. Wow! Now that was amazing, said Carmen. He then returned to himself. Now I can not talk like you so I will have to be alone and timing will have to be perfect, said Merlin. Now he will heal the arm that Zatsuky here cut on him and that will take some time so we have the night to get some sleep but an hour before the sun comes up we need Viridian and Zatsuky to get into position and well hidden. You all will have to figure out where this is all going to happen. Well I can stay invisible with my gear on, said Viridian. Okay, but just incase stay back and behind something in case he senses something, said Merlin. Zatsuky's Crimson Sword can hit the target without aiming dead on so when you see Zatsuky shoot that is when Viridian needs to start shooting also. Both of you move in continuing the energy stream incase his shield is very strong. What if he teleports? asked Alexa. Yes that is why timing is important. When he goes to touch me or blast me I will freeze him but that will only last for a little bit. I will yell "Now" and that is when Zatsuky will fire first. We want him incinerated so he can never bother anyone again. Now figure out where the hiding spots will be then get some rest while I go see Pippa and Ivy, said Merlin.

Merlin went down the hall and into Ivy's and Viridian's room where Pippa was laying on the bed. So doctor. How is she? asked Merlin. Ivy looked at Pippa. She is hurting bad. I can feel it. Yes I see that. Well, said the doctor. She has a broken and arm and a broken leg plus three broken ribs and one wing is badly damaged. Plus she has a big lump on the back of her head that concerns me. If it is a concussion then she should not be sleeping. It could put her in a comma. Now waking her up is the best thing but she will be in a lot of pain that will put stress on her heart. Ivy looked up at Merlin with some more tears forming. Hmm. We cannot have that, said Merlin. Now I have set her leg and arm so they will heal properly, said the doctor. Her ribs are fractured but as long as she doesn't move around much for a while they will heal fine also. But that lump is my main concern. Give me a few minutes, said Merlin. I have something that will help with the pain back in my lab. Then Merlin disappeared. Ivy was holding Pippa hand and was trying her best not to cry. Pippa is one of my best friends, she said to the doctor. It is hard to see her all broken up and in pain. Well I did my best and hopefully she will be just fine in time, said the doctor. Merlin reappeared holding a flask and a needle. Now give her a shot of this then wake her up. It will dull the pain a lot immediately for about four hours. Then you two keep her awake. I have one more task to do then I will be back. Merlin disappeared again. The doctor gave Pippa the shot in her arm then woke Pippa up with a few light taps on her face. Pippa coughed again and they could see it hurt a bit. Ouch my chest still hurts, said Pippa. Yes and it will for a while, said the doctor. You have fractured ribs among other injuries, the doctor said to her. Hi Ivy! You are here. Pippa looked around. Where is here? asked Pippa. You are in my bed in my room, said Ivy. My this is a nice room. Bed is too big for me but still nice. Ivy smiled. Well it will have to do for now, said Ivy. Now Pippa you have to stay awake. It is very important. You must not sleep at all, said the doctor. Okay, said Pippa. Ivy is here so she can talk to me, said Pippa. Merlin came back and said hi to Pippa. Hi Merlin you always look the same to me no matter how long it has been since I saw you last, said Pippa. Must be the hat, said Merlin with a smile. Your friends are all here so do as the doctor says and get better, okay. Okay, said Pippa. How is the pain, asked Merlin. It is better, I still hurt but not that bad now. Okay good, said Merlin. So you said all my friends are here, are they in the palace too? asked Pippa. Well yes but when I said all your friends, I meant all of them, said Merlin. Give her another shot in four hours. I am going to talk to the others in the den before they go to sleep, said Merlin.

Merlin went to the den where everyone was getting ready to have a short sleep. So you all came up with hiding spots I take it, said Merlin. Yes we did, said Alexa. We know where to hide Viridian and Zatsuky and where you will be hanging out looking like things are normal. Good he said. Hey what is that sound? asked Alexa. Ya I hear it too, said Carmen. It sounds a bit like rain. No not exactly, said Merlin. That is all of Pippa's friends come to help her. Really, I didn't know she had more friends then all of us, said Alexa. Gabriel appeared and smiled at Merlin. Well when I told God that there was so much love around Pippa, I didn't mean just you all, said Gabriel. There are thousands of pixies from the west and east woods and probably from even further away that love Pippa and all she has done for them, she is the queen of the pixies but Pippa doesn't consider herself special at all. Pixies usually just do what they want but they do follow what Pippa asks them to do all of the time. So they are letting lots and lots of pixie dust fall on the palace. I just had to tell a couple pixies that Pippa was hurt very bad and was in the palace. Without a word they shrunk down and took off like a flash. In moments I saw hundreds then thousands of pixies headed towards the palace. One pixie flew down to me and said, "We will not let Pippa die" then took off to the palace. I asked Mother Nature to make sure there is no wind around the palace to blow the dust away so this palace is going to become the most magical structure in the world for a while. It will speed up Pippa's recovery a lot, said Gabriel. Yes I think I am starting to feel it working already, said Carmen. Yes, you will so sleep now and I will wake you before it gets light, said Merlin. They all fell asleep fast and Merlin blew out the candles then went around the palace, opening all the windows.
