Chapter One: The last straw

" Cosmo no!! " An explosion rocks the residents of the Turner household.

" What? I thought you said surprise bomb..." Cosmo says innocently, watching as Timmy and Wanda wiped the soot off their faces. Timmy sighs, but only ends up coughing a bit, a smoke could puffing out of his mouth.

" Cosmo, he said surprise for his Mom. " Wanda mumbles, trying to comb her pink hair out of it's knots. Cosmo only laughs nervously, a hand unconsciencly reaching behind his head.

" Woops! "

" I swear Cosmo, sometimes I wonder if you need a hearing aid..." Timmy's voice trails off as the scene is suddenly paused.

" What did I tell you? He is a danger to society, and every little thing we have tried to do to punish this little twerp, he bounces back like a child's bouncy ball. It's ridiculous!! Something has to be done, NOW! " A muscular man bellows, waving his grand sized fairy wand about at the smaller beings around him. They all sat, uneasy.

" This is true, but there really isn't really anything we can do about it. " Said a female woman, who was wearing a fluffy type outfit, and instead of a wand, there was a toothbrush in her hands, " And with the little green one out in the courtroom with his godchild, there will have to be a sentence today and soon. " The rest of the Counsil agreed with the red headed fairy. They all began to chat amongst themselves, until two women enter the room, the simple sight of them silenced the room. The first one to enter was an elder looking woman who held an ancient looking fairy wand that had a planet like orb on it's end instead of a star. She had dark magenta hair that flowed elegantly around her soft features and pale red eyes.
Following her, a younger fairy, who like the first, held a staff with an orb. She had aqua green hair and also pale red eyes. She had a melancholy look on her face as she gazes at the floor. The sight of this fairy caused everyone in the room to slide back in their chairs, even the muscular one, Jorgan.

" I have a suggestion. " The elder one speaks, her voice serene and wisdomous. She steps forward, her bare feet barely making a sound on the marble floor. The counsil looks up at her, nearly hopeful and yet, nearly unbearing.

" Please, do not hesitate, your Highness. " The red headed fairy insists, looking in anticipation. The younger fairy steps forward, raising her staff into the air. The counsil looks on steadily. The staff connects with the floor, several sparks shooting into the air. Out of the sparks a hologram forms, an image of Wanda appearing in it. The young one then steps back, her eyes hiden as she bows her head.

" This woman needs to be removed from his presence. " She states, looking up sternly to the Counsil, who all sat wide eyed. Jorgan looks to his wife, unsure of this idea. She understands this position and turns back to the elder woman.

" Is this the only option? She is about the only one who can keep him intact, your Highness. He- " She is interupted instantly.

" He will be fine, once he gets used to it. This is the only way to fix his immature acts. There is nothing else that will work as well as this. " She speaks calmly, though impatience was apparant through the calmness. The counsil gazes at each other, unsure on what to do. Jorgan finally looks to the elder fairy.

" If it is the only way, then it must be done. " He says simply, standing from his seat at the other end of the long table. He himself being glad to be as far from the young fairy as possible, for he was shaking from her appearance. But he didn't know why, maybe it was her red eyes or even her sad and calm look. Or maybe even the shattered fairy wings on her back. his wife also stands, along with the rest of the counsil.

" So be it! " Jorgan speaks again, the velocity in his voice returning, but pauses as the young fairy looks up at him, her eyes seemingly staring right at him. He gulps and leads the rest of the counsil out of the room. After everyone filed out of the room, the elder fairy turns to her young apprentice.

" It seems they still fear you Terra. " She states, her red gaze matching the other's. Terra looks away, her hand reaching for one of the shredded wings on her back.

" I suppose, they haven't seen a banished fairy before... I guess they still hold a grudge against me? " She asks, her voice just as calm as the elder's.

" That may be true, but being born isn't a sin, Terra. Soon, you won't be the only Fairitian. Shall I do the ceremony, or would you like to? " The elder asks in reply, her lips melding into a frown. Terra looks away, to her wand and the two little orbs that circled around the larger one in a moon like orbit.

" I will, but I still don't think this is the right way to do things...at least, not to Cosmo. This is too drastic of a punishment, even for you. "

" Sadly enough, this incident had to come up at the wrong time, so this has to be done the way it's unraveling. You just concentrate on transfering Wanda's spirit into her two forms. You might want to remove the child from the room, before the sentence as well. " Terra nods at this statement, as she starts towards the door the counsil once entered and exited.

" Good luck, Terra. "

" Fairitians don't need luck, neither do I deserve it. I take it you will be in the chamber? "

" Yes, I will. "

" ...... " Terra walks into the courtroom without another word. The elder looks on in sadness, before turning back in the other direction.

" Remember Terra, being born isn't a sin. Refusing your birth and heritage is..."

" Your sentence is directed to your spouse, Wanda, who will have her magic extracted and her remaining form will be banished from Fairy World, permanently. " Jorgan speaks, half harshly. Cosmo, Wanda and Timmy's eyes widen in horror, the two boys turning to Wanda in shock. She herself was surprisingly calm, but fear and dejection was visible in her eyes, even though neither of the two remaining boys noticed.

" Wanda..." Timmy whispers, his eyes wide and his fingers were twitching slightly. Cosmo, however was much worse off. His eyes were wide, yes, but there were also tears starting to form in his eyes.

" No...NO! " He stutters, then screams as Wanda's form disappears and reappears in the front of the courtroom. Her pink eyes held confusion as she gazed up at the counsil, who all looked back at her in surprise. They had no idea what was about to happen. Suddenly, out of the corner of the room, Terra appears as she walks to the edge of the balcony above the judge's stand. She looked down at Wanda, who was looking up at her, along with the rest of the courtroom, even the judge gazed wide eyed at the tall fairy. In the whole courtroom, she was the only human sized fairy, besides Jorgan.

" I'm sorry, Cosmo..." Her voice is inaudible as she raises her staff into the air, the same sparks erupting from them, and they trail down to Wanda. She gasps in shock as the bolts hit her from all sides, causing her to drop her wand. She tries to reach for it, but it rises in the air, the staff part grows longer and the star becomes bigger. She hears Timmy and the rest of the fairies gasp in horror as she feels a sudden pain in her chest as her body starts to change. She watches as her arms and legs become longer and her midarea grows longer as well, making her look like a human woman. Tears forming in her eyes, and beginning to be hidden as her pink hair flows around her. She reaches for her floating wand, that was starting to crumble at the tips, along with her crown. Finally, her wings tear out, bit by bit, blood dripping down the small of her back. Before she can grab her wand, another shock slams her in the face, sending her back to the floor. Her eyes turn blank red and she was now crying from the pain.

" T...timmy...Cos..mo..." Are her last words, before she goes completely unconscience. The crowd in the courtroom gaze in terror at the new form Wanda was in. She looked completely human, except for the shredded wings on her back that were bleeding slightly.

" WANDA!! " Timmy and Cosmo shout, both of them trying to run past the guards towards her fallen and limp body. But they stop as Terra floats from her place down next to Wanda. She puts a hand on Wanda's back and both of them start to faze through the floor.

" No! " Cosmo cries out, flying over the guards and slams into the floor as Terra and Wanda disappear beneath the floor. Tears streaming down his face, Cosmo glares up at the counsil, his breathing ragged. They all looked away, each feeling guilty of the happened that had just taken place in front of them all. Everything was silent, except for the sobs that rang out from Cosmo's shaken body. Timmy could only stand by him, tears rolling down his own cheeks. No one really knew what to do anymore, not even the counsil or the judge.

" I have sealed her soul, Terra, you can calm down. "

" That was brutal, your highness! I couldn't bare the look on his face!! " Terra screams, tears rolling down her pink cheeks. The elder looks up, her eyes flaring with surprise. She was crouched over the counsil table.

" You of all people should be used to the pain you see in people's eyes, Terra! " She nearly shouts, watching as Terra clamps her hands over her ears and was becoming hysterical.

" Arefa, it's different when you are born into that form! I've never seen a scene like that, NEVER! " Terra screams, on the verge of rage. The elder fairy, Arefa, gazes silently.

" You've seen more death in this world than any other fairy...and yet you blame your own existance. Why? "

" It's the only way I can think now. I don't have a choice when the wars start. I'm surprised this world the fairies are living hasn't been attacked by the harbingers yet. " Terra states, stepping forward and bangs her staff to the floor.

" They will soon, that is why it is neccesary to have another Fairitian to fight with you. It will just take some time for her to recooperate. "

" Wanda won't have any memories, will she? " Terra asks suddenly, looking to the crystaline casket that a petite woman layed in.

" Not her human form, no. She will just appear in the human world and adapt to her surroundings. Let's just hope Cosmo doesn't do anything stupid in the meantime, like try to find her. " Arefa is taken back by the red sparks that shoot by her face. Terra glares at her, tears forming in her eyes.

" Wanda was very important to Cosmo, don't be shocked if he does!! He didn't deserve that!! Neither did Wanda, she has nothing to do with any of this! "

" You'd be surprised to find how much so actually does have to do with this problem, you have no right to contradict me. " Arefa states in a queen-like manner, before she turns around and begins to leave, " You have no idea..."

After Arefa disappears behind the curtains that lead to the thrown room of Fairy World, Terra walks over to the casket, gazing at the woman again. She traces her hand over the quartz glass.

" I hope he finds you, Wanda..."

Well, that may have been a bit, much...but knowing me, it will be confusing at first. BUT it will get BETTER!! Believe me!! Please review for me, I'd highly appreaciate it!! Thank you much!!! And if you were confused on these new characters, I 'll just tell you, Arefa is the Queen of the Fairy World, and Terra is a Fairitian which will explained in due time!! If you have any questions, please ask!! I love questions. I would rather not get any flames, but if you must explode you fiery desires, by all means do so, but at least give some " constructive critism " Otherwise I could care less...any ways I'm blabbing so just leave a quick little review and I'll get the next chapter out as soon as I can!! Happy reading!!
