Chapter 1: Colorless~
My breath was taken away. 'Wow' I thought. The scene was gorgeous and I felt so warm. It was dark here, but there were many small bugs creating light. I remember hearing a laugh, and now I'm here. Here with them. The fairies.
I felt safe and needed. Everyone was looking at me smiling in awe. I twirled a few times to look at everything. My speed whipped my brown hair and my dress, which was pure white, made from a flower of some sort I guessed. Possibly a Calla Lilly. I liked it. It was soft to the touch as I ran my fingers along the pretty material.
I smiled again. Happy and anxious.
Gasps along with other comments I couldn't make out, were all around me as I decided to sit back down. I crossed my small legs and smoothed out the soft garment I was wearing. Looking up, there were dozens! Dozens upon dozens of faries. I saw pink ones, yellow ones, green ones, blue ones, purple ones, and even orange ones! This place was amazing.
It wasn't long after that, and I was blinded by three balls of light that came together to form a lady. Her wings were absolutely stunning! I stood back up and covered my face with my forearm, allowing her bright light to shine like a small star. She was gorgeous! There was gold dust trailing her as she flew with her golden wings. She had brown hair, similar to mine, and she smiled. It was a rather welcoming smile.
"Hello," Her voice reassured me. "Welcome to Pixie Hollow. I am Queen Clarion" Lots of claps erupted and I felt even happier, if that was possible. The women in the golden dress continued, "Now, let us see how those wings turned out shall we?"
I nodded and allowed her to turn me, my back facing her. I saw a circle of the golden dust encircle me and I closed my eyes, next thing I remember is gasps surrounding the room. Quickly I opened my eyes and turned to see a shocked Queen. 'Oh no..' I thought.
"What is it?" I asked in desperation. Her face signaled something was wrong, or unusual, or.. something. I couldn't understand. I felt less happy and more worried. Me emotions falling faster by the second. What was happening?
The queen pointed subtly at my wings and I turned my head slightly before gasping myself.
My wings were not clear like every other fairy. They were White! Well, white sparkles. They resembled Queen Clarion's, but rather than gold sparkly dust, mine were white!
The strangeness didn't end there, my hair had turned completely white and somehow it was longer and styled with multiple curls and accent braids. I gasped looking into the mirror that was nearby. I looked so different, but how?
Turning to the worried queen I spoke, "What.. what has happened to me?" She had no words. She just stared at me, along with everyone else in the crowd. I winced, no longer feeling welcome or happy. Everyone was speaking in murmurs to one another. 'What had I done..' Is all I thought.
I allowed myself to sink back to the ground and I dared not to look up at the disappointed queen. She was shaking, as her hand extended to me. I looked up with small tears forming in my now gray colored eyes. My wings were no longer happy, instead they folded on one another as I sat. How quickly this went from a happy occasion and a time of joy, to a rather sad one. I ruined things.
"Ashen." The queen said quietly.
I looked up, concerned and confused."What?" I whispered.
"Ashen," She replied a little louder so everyone else could hear. "Ashen is your name young one." She rested both of her hand on my small one. I swallowed, feeling more alone than ever. I felt so out of place. The queen cleared her throat and sighed before continuing with one last thought.
"It means colorless." she says.
