Dance of the Dandruff Fairies
Prologue:
Seven year old Ellie couldn't sleep. She twisted underneath her bedsheets while clutching one of her dark brown locks, the dim cobalt light from her night lamp was the only thing illuminating her room.
She shed a tear as she thought back on the awful day she had had.
During recess, the other kids had gathered around her and started pointing and making fun of her hair (or rather, was what in her hair).
"Your Hair is Flaky.
Your Hair is Flaky.
You'll be leaving with the Scab-Fairy."
All of them chanted over and over again. Some of them even ran up on her from behind and pulled in her hair, trying to impress their friends by getting some of her dandruff. She cried and screamed to be left alone while shielding her head.
Ellie gazed at the hairlock she was clutching. The small white flakes dotted the stream of otherwise flawless silky hair. "Stupid dandruff. Stupid jerks. Stupid fairies. There's no such thing anyway." She huffed as she turned over once again. "I hope Yu and I can be friends again."
On her way back home, Ellie came across her friend Yu who appeared to be crying over something. "Yu, what's the matter?"
"This!" Yu screamed and held up some of her raven hair for Ellie to see. It was sprinkled with white flakes. "You gave me dandruff! I never want to speak to you again!" The Chinese girl shouted hysterically and pointed accusingly at a distraught Ellie.
Just as Ellie closed her eyes to sleep, a bright pink light illuminated the room, completely outshining her dim little night lamp. Immediately, Ellie rattled out of her bedsheets, getting up on her knees. The light was coming from outside her windows which then opened with a bang. The young girl had to squint and shield her eyes to be able to look towards the light source. The silhouette of a woman appeared in front of the pink light.
"Evening, little one." The silhouette greeted with a playful giggle.
"What are you?" Ellie asked.
The bright light dimmed just enough for the details of the intruding woman to be discernible for the young brunette's eyes. She was a young, beautiful woman in her mid-twenties with long raven hair, wearing a tight pink and purple costume that exposed her stomach. She was hovering in the hair on insect wings and the powerful light was emitting from a staff in her left hand.
"Well, I am the Scab Fairy." The deranged former pageant queen answered gracefully.
"You-you are?" Ellie gasped with astonishment. "Why are you here?"
"For you of course. Cause as the tale goes, all little girls blessed with flaky hair has to come with me to world of wonder." Scab Fairy explained whimsically, her red lips curved into a childlike smile.
"Ellie, what's going on in there?" A male voice came from behind the door. "Ellie? Ellie, I'm coming in." The door opened and her father stepped in. He gasped in horror when he saw his daughter in the crook of this fairy-like woman's arm.
The Scab Fairy swiftly turned around and flew out thru the window, laughing manically as she disappeared into night.
Author's Note:
And so the seventh part of my Season 3 series begins. This one will be very Abby-centred but Chester and Ty will be given some attention as well and as you can tell, Scab Fairy will be the primary antagonist with the gross-theme being dandruff. I think it will be a lot of fun.
Don't know how long it will take to make this one since school leaves me with so little free time but I'll try to find time to write. I'll also be trying to draw a descent title card for this fanfic since that's something I typically do for these Season 3 stories. Right now I'll be using this drawing I did of Scab Fairy for DeviantArt.
As always, I appreciate any feedback you can give me.
See you around, Grossologists!
