Jayden practically ran out the door because he was worried we were going to miss the school bus. “Will you slow down? We still have three minutes!” I hollered out the front door to him. His bag was slapping against his back with each step and his curly brown hair was whipping around in the wind. “Eight year olds.” I mumbled to myself. As I was about to head out the door, my mother handed me a little box and told me, “This was left on the kitchen counter for you. It has a little note on it but I don’t know who it is from.” I took the small box. It was like a tiny treasure chest, coated with leather, it felt smooth under my fingers. I wonder what could be in here and whom it could be from. I put the tiny box in my pocket and went after my brother out the door.
Of course the bus was late again so, I figured I’d have enough time to open the box. I carefully lifted the lid (in case there was anything precious in there) but rather than jewelry or money, there was a little creature. It almost looked like it was glowing but I’m sure it’s just the reflection from the sun. It also had wings; each was bigger than the body of the creature itself. She had on a flowing blue dress, brown hair and deep blue eyes. It fluttered out and landed on my shoulder. I’m not going to lie, I freaked out a little but she didn’t move. “Who are you?” I asked her. I held my hand out for her to stand on. “My name is Pilar. I’m a water fairy from the Land of the Nonbelievers.” Her voice was the tiniest I’ve ever heard. “Land of Nonbelievers? What is it that you don’t believe in?” If anything wouldn’t they be the Land of Believers? “We, excuse me, they don’t believe that mortals are real. I would live somewhere else but there isn’t anywhere else on this planet I could live at.” She seemed annoyed. “Could you explain to me why you were given to me and by whom?” I seem to be getting more curious. “It was just a way for me to get here. Sorry you were dragged into this.” The bus was rounding the corner so I quickly stuffed the box in my backpack and put Pilar in the pocket of my sweatshirt. I can’t be seen with a fairy, especially at school.
During math class I felt Pilar tugging at me, she seemed a bit frantic. I looked down at her and gave her a face saying, “What do you want?!?” She looked up at me, peeking her head out from the pocket of my sweatshirt. “This is urgent, we have to go now.” Now I don’t really care what the reason is, I can leave math. Well actually, I don’t have anything to tell my teacher…”Mr. Connors, I think my fish just died. I have to go home now.” I quickly gathered my things and ran out of there before you could stop me. “Your fish died? That’s the best excuse you could come up with?” Pilar asked me. She’s right though, that was a pretty horrible excuse to leave class. “We need to go to the waterfall area at the mall.” I’m quite puzzled right now but I figure its best to just do what she says and get us there.
After catching the bus to the mall, we found that Pilar would be up against a head fairy that was accompanied by 30 other fairies. Apparently they are going to have a water dual. Both were standing on their own rock in the middle of the water. Pilar conjured up a small ball of water the size of a pearl and hurled it at the other fairy. While the other fairy was in shock, Pilar wasted no time in starting to form another ball of water, slightly larger then the last. Good thing the mall was closed today because people wouldn’t have looked at this as a normal event. Anyways, they keep throwing more water balls at each other but Pilar looked dryer than the other fairy. Suddenly the water started moving and gathering at one end of the pond. Pilar couldn’t see this, for it was happening behind her. As the body of water started moving closer to her, forming to the shape of a wave I called out her name to give her a warning. All the other fairies gasped as well as I. The movement in the pond slowed down and I could see Pilar clinging to the rock. When I looked down at her I noticed something was different; one of her wings were gone. I picked her up and out of the water to dry her off. The other fairy flew over too us. “Congratulations Pilar. You’ve won this time and you’ve proven that these mortals are real.” I looked at her puzzled. Pilar won? “I don’t understand. How did Pilar win?” The fairy gave a small chuckle and said, “She risked her life. She is now with not two, but one wing. I am merely wet.” Some of the fairies cheered while others stood around awkwardly. “I’m really sorry about your wing Pilar.” She looked down for a moment but then stood up. She did a little dance, said a few words and now she had a brand new wing.
