Prologue

After Alieta and Ginger got back in the palace. Keiko and Amelie played around with the sun dial a bit but it didn't take them long to get bored with it. "So what do you want to do now while we wait for someone to show up here?" asked Amelie. "Lets go on top of the palace and wait for someone to come out or show up. I think Alieta said Tara and Avan usually come out first," said Keiko. "Okay sounds like a plan," said Amelie. The two of them flew up on the palace roof and sat down together. "Hey we can see a lot from here," said Keiko. "Yep and if you look down we can see the steps," said Amelie. They both laid on their stomach and looked down to see and wait for someone to come out. While looking down a light blue streak zoomed by. "Hey did you see that?" asked Amelie. "Yep and very fast too," said Keiko. "Is that it way over there by the woods?" asked Amelie. "Maybe, let me zoom in on it," said Keiko. Keiko had a quick look. "I think it is was a fairy but she moved to somewhere else before I could get a good look," said Keiko. "Do want to go over there an investigate?" asked Amelie. "Nope, it is better up here. We can see more from on the roof and if it is just a fairy then no worries," said Keiko. "Okay, good idea," said Amelie. "We got to save our energy for our adventure today anyways. Okay lets lay back down and see who comes out of the palace first." The two of then continued to wait on the roof...

The Blue Streak

About ten minutes went by and no one had come out of the palace yet. "This is getting boring," said Amelie. "Maybe we should go look for that fairy," said Keiko. "Wait I hear someone opening the door. Look, it is Repellia. She is a pretty dresser isn't she." "She is a pretty everything," said Amelie. "Lets sneak up from behind and scare her," said Keiko. "Okay lets go quietly," said Amelie. They slowly flew down then came up behind Repellia and they both said Boo!. "Oh hello you two," said Repellia. "Hey how come we didn't scare you?" asked Keiko. Repellia smiled and said, "When you have been here as long as I have then not much scares or surprises you anymore." "Oh so you have seen some scary things here then?" asked Amelie. "Oh ya, and very weird things too," said Repellia. Just then the blue streak zoomed by. "Now that was new," said Repellia. "Yep we saw her a bit earlier," said Keiko. "Looked like a fairy but she was very far away and moved fast." It zoomed by again just missing Repellia. "Okay two can play this game," said Repellia. "So how sure are you that it was just a fairy?" "Um pretty sure," said Keiko. "Too fast to get a read on her though." "Okay good just wanted to make sure it wasn't anything bad," said Repellia. "Lets play a trick on her. You two go and hide by the sun dial and I will lean against the palace. When she comes by again from over there, I will send out a few pulses that should knock her off balance or at least slow her down a lot. Then you two jump out and grab her." "Oh you are good, much better than us sneaking up on you," said Keiko. "Okay get over there and I will tell you when she is coming," said Repellia. They all got into position and waited.

Repellia kept watching then saw it coming again fast. "Okay here she comes get ready," said Repellia. She was coming fast so Repellia kept on sending out pulses then suddenly she could see her and was flipping head over heels in the air. Keiko and Amelie flew out fast and grabbed her before she hit the ground by the arms. "Got ya!" said Amelia. "The fairy screamed then yelled, "Let me go!" real loud over and over again. In a few moments Ginger came running out to see what was going on. "Take it easy girl we are not going to hurt you," said Keiko. Repellia ran over and said, "You might be fast not fast enough to beat us". "What's going on out here?" asked Ginger. "Um just having a bit of fun with this fairy," said Amelie. Ginger and Repellia looked at her as she was squirming around a bit and kept lifting Amelie and Keiko off the ground some. "That is not one of our fairies," said Ginger. "Why are you holding her?" Well she was zooming back and forth in front of the palace and almost hit me so we decided to try and catch her before anyone got hurt," said Repellia. "Let me go or I will, I will." said the fairy. "You will do what?" asked Amelie. "I don't know but something that is for sure," said the fairy. "Okay you two let her go if she promises not to fly away until she answers a couple of questions, do you promise?" asked Ginger. "Okay I promise and a fairies promise is solid," said the fairy. Keiko and Amelie let go of her and she stood very still and look scared. "Okay, first what is your name?" asked Ginger. "Clary," said the fairy. "Good, nice to meet you Clary, my name is Ginger. Now why are you here is my second question?" "Well some nice yellow people in a golden forest told me where Fae Land was," said Clary. I have been traveling for months trying to find my home. They told me that they heard some fairies live here." "Okay well yes this is Fae Land," said Ginger. "Now last question then you can leave if you want. Why were you flying back and forth like these three said you were doing?" "I wasn't flying back and forth, just flying all over the place to make sure this was Fae Land and not some where bad, said Clary. I don't want to leave, I want to stay and meet the other fairies if there are any." "Yes there are some fairies here and I think that will be fine but first I have to get Alieta first. She has the final say as to who can stay here," said Ginger. "Who is Alieta?" asked Clary. The Queen of Fae Land," both Keiko and Amelie said at once. "Oh a queen, I hope she is a good queen, met some bad ones on the way here and some bad kings too plus lots of weird things too," said Clary. Lots of bad stuff out there you know. I had to fly fast most of the time and hide in the trees at night. Is she nice?" asked Clary. Keiko laughed. "She talks like us and Sakura a bit, I think Alieta will like her," said Keiko. "Yep pretty sure, said Ginger and yes she is a very good queen so wait here please." Ginger ran back into the palace to get Alieta. "Wow very pretty colour of blue," said Repellia. "I am turquoise not blue," said Clary. "Well very pretty regardless," said Repellia.

In a couple minutes Ginger came back out with Alieta. "Is that her?" asked Clary. "Yep that is Alieta," said Repellia. "Nice turquoise outfit and wings, very pretty sprite I think," said Clary. Alieta walked up to her and said hello. "So Ginger here told me that your name is Clary and you traveled for a long time to get here," said Alieta. "Yep," said Clary. "Okay you seem nervous, you are safe here so relax," said Alieta. "Well your the queen and you can make me leave but I don't want to leave because it took a long time to get here and it really looks nice in Fae Land plus Ginger said there are other fairies here and that you have the last say if I stay or go," said Clary. Alieta smiled then looked at Keiko. "Yep a true fairy," said Keiko with a smile. Very old one too." Okay so how long have been traveling? to get here?" asked Alieta. "Well lets see, I left Zambul in the spring. Very bad things and weird people there and then I stayed in Watsuky for a while but had to leave there because dragons started to attack people. Then I found another place but I forget what it was called." said Clary. "I have never heard of any of those places, Where are they located?" asked Alieta. "Oh it is in the tropics but not the tropics up here. In the southern tropics," said Clary. "Your kidding, that is thousands of miles away," said Alieta. "Yep I know but things in that part of the world are really bad. People don't speak English so I couldn't get directions to find my home and they were mean and would throw spears at me so I just kept hidden and kept flying all over the place looking for some familiar land marks for the longest time," said Clary. Once I finally came to the big gulf I knew I was heading north but that was still a long way from where I came from." Okay so where did you live before" asked Alieta. A couple hundred miles north of the great canyon," said Clary. That forest was gone when I reached it so I figured all my friends and family were killed by the dragons so I just kept flying north checking every forest until finally I met some pixies that said there was a nice safe place much further north. I was tied and stayed with them for a while. They were very nice to me." This is quite the story you are telling me, how long have you been flying north?" asked Alieta. Not sure, I think it was was in the late eighteen hundreds when I flew away and got lost. What, that is over a hundred years ago," said Alieta. "Really, it seems longer," said Clary. "Fairies can fly very fast yet why did it take you this long to get to Fae Land?" asked Alieta, "I told you I was lost and had no idea what direction to go," said Clary. "I really miss my Dad, sisters and my Mom, we were and very nice family and did everything together. Are the fairies here nice?" Alieta thought for a moment then asked Clary what her Mom's name was? "Guen, she was the Queen back then," said Clary. I wish God would of spared her life and the rest of my family when we were attacked by dragons. Both Alieta and Ginger got a shocked look on their face. "You are one of Guen's daughters?" asked Ginger. "She only has six daughters and they are all here." "Really, no I only had five sisters before I flew off the wrong way," said Clary. "There was Pippie, Sunflower, Lilly, Chestnut, Roseberry and me." "No there is Tulip also," said Alieta. "Really, they are all still alive and I have another sister!! How old is she?" asked Clary that was now super excited. "Not exactly sure but over one hundred years old I think," said Alieta. "One hundred and ten years I think," said Keiko. "I read her yesterday. "She is still just a kid, I have to see her, where is she?" asked Clary. The seventh child will be very special, where is my family living?" Now Clary was almost in tears and looked desperate to fine them. "Relax Clary I first have to make sure you truly are who you say you are, said Alieta. She is not lying Alieta," said Keiko. "That I can tell and she has been around for a very long time but that is all I can see in her. She blocks like Ivy." "Okay then I will call Pippa to tell them that you are here," said Alieta. "Pippa is here! Just ask Pippa, she know me," said Clary. "Yes she would if you are telling the truth and Keiko here says you are," said Alieta. She called for Pippa and said, "I need you to come and see someone for me."
