A/N~ So I wanted to try something, but I'm not sure how this is going to turn out. What if Oberon had a full-blooded fey daughter? So read and review please? Tell me if it's any good and if I should continue.

Chapter 1

I stared across the great black river, the roaring sound of the rushing waters almost a comfort to me. If I would not have been paying attention then I probably wouldn't have heard the shouts from just on down from where I was standing. I spun around to see a blonde haired siren pulling a creature from the river. My curiosity got the best of me and I immediately ran over that way, wanting to know what had peaked the sirens inquisitiveness. I was just a few feet away when I heard the siren speak. "I've been practicing. Want to hear?" She asked.

"No, she certainly does not." A Cait Sith came stalking through the grass, his bushy tail sticking straight up. He was soaked, something I found quite amusing, and definitely unpleased with his situation.

"Shoo." He growled at the siren. "Go away. I am in no mood to play games with nixies. Now, get!" The siren hissed at the Cait Sith only to flee, easily sliding into the black water like a seal.

"Irritating sirens." He fumed. "You did not promise her anything, did you?"

"No." The creature he was speaking to sounded offended as if she wouldn't have done something like that. "You didn't have to scare her off, Grim. She did save my life."

I smirked then and decided to make my presence known to the two. Might as well not sit here watching them like a creep. "She pulled you out of the water because she was curious. If Grimalkin wouldn't have stopped her she probably would have sang you underwater. Or worse…eaten you." I stepped forward, my hand going to lay on the sword that rested at my hip in case this creature was a danger to me. No sense in being too careless as my father would have said. The girl's head swiveled to look up at me, her blue eyes widening upon seeing me standing there. I narrowed my eyes, a little surprised to see that she was a human girl. "Grimalkin why did you bring a human into our realm?" I asked, raising a slender eyebrow at the Cait Sith.

Grimalkin sniffed as if he wouldn't have dared to do such a thing when the evidence was sitting in front of me. "Princess," He stated, emphasizing the word, "I did not bring the human to the Nevernever. I am just leading her to Puck." I crossed my arms, staring down at the Cait Sith and the human, wondering what Puck had brought a human to the Nevernever for. I hadn't seen the mischievous jester in almost sixteen mortal years and he was suddenly turning up with a human with him.

"If he's back then I bet I know where he's at." I said, smirking. "My name is Bryn." I held my hand out to the girl, waiting for her to grab it so I could help her up. For a few mere seconds she stared at it, as if unsure to trust me or not. I cleared my throat, causing her to jump, and she placed her good hand in mine and I hauled her up.

"I'm Meghan." She said. I noticed that she was holding her arm close to her chest which made me wonder if she'd been hurt. I shook the thoughts from my head. When had I began to care if a mere mortal was injured?

"We'd better go." I turned on my heels and jerked my head forward. "Shall we?"

Once we were a little farther out in Arcadia, Meghan seemed amazed at everything she was seeing. Not that one could blame her. The land was overly vibrant and vivid, the trees exceedingly green, and the flowers alive with color. It was all exceedingly beautiful, almost too amazing to describe in words. I glanced over at the human, taking notice of the brilliant red shade her face was, and the sweat that was running down it. It didn't take much too long before she collapsed under a pine tree. "There's something wrong with me." She panted as Grim stalked around the tree to make sure nothing was around that would disturb them.

"Dreamlace venom," he said, apparently to her confusion. "Goblins poison their spears and arrows. When the hallucinations start coming, you do not have long." My eyes widened. I hadn't known that the girl had been attacked by goblins.

I knelt down in front of her as she whispered, "Isn't there a cure? Someone who can help?"

I shook my head, "That's where we're going in case you haven't noticed." I glanced up to look at the path we'd been walking along. "We don't have much longer so get on up. Keep your eyes on Grim and ignore everything else." I advised her, helping the girl stand back up. It took her about three tries, but she finally managed to pull herself up into a standing position. Grim took the lead with Meghan behind him and me behind her in case she somehow got sidetracked.

We kept walking and I had to keep Meghan from getting distracted. It was when Grim hopped onto a boulder that I knew I probably had to take it from here. "Bryn should be able to lead you from here. Keep going until he shows himself. He owes me a favor, but he tends to distrust humans, but you should be fine as long as the princess is with you. As of now he is the only one who can cure you now."

Meghan frowned, obviously confused. "What are you talking about?" She asked.

I rolled my eyes. "Don't worry. I'll take it from here." I muttered to the Cait Sith, before gently nudging the girl in the back. "Come on." We walked along then, Meghan more stumbling than anything. She was starting to become delirious now from the venom so I ultimately decided not to even attempt small talk.

We were in a moonlit grove when she fell down on her back. I peered down at her. She definitely wasn't looking so good. I glanced around the grove, trying to find this mysterious he that owned Grimalkin a favor. It wasn't until I saw a shaft of moonlight break away from the trees and glide towards us that I figured it out. I watched in interest as it shimmered and changed shape, sometimes resembling a deer or a pony, and it's golden eyes glowing in the dark. "Hello Meghan Chase." He turned his golden eyes on me and added, "Princess Bryn.."

I nodded in salutation, but said nothing. "Hello. Am I dead?" The moonlight creature laughed softly and I couldn't help but do the same.

"Not quite. It is not your destiny to die here, princess." I froze at the use of the title that I was used to, giving the creature a quick glance. I looked back down at the girl wondering why he'd called her a princess. I took a few steps back, leaving the creature and Meghan to their conversation while I watched. Who was this girl really? Surely Puck had a reason for bringing her into the Nevernever.

"You're finally awake." Meghan started at the sound of my voice. I chuckled at her paranoia and chucked her hideous orange backpack at her. She caught it as she cast a confused look around the meadow, as if she didn't know where she was. I decided not to tell her that after the creature had cured her I'd carried her off to this meadow. I watched as she unzipped the pouch to pull something out of it. My eyes narrowed as a metallic smell tainted the air.

"Dammit." She grumbled, sighed as she looked the thing over.

"What is that?" I spat out through gritted teeth as I eyed it suspiciously.

Meghan looked over at me, raising an eyebrow. "An iPod?"

"Well it reeks of iron." I turned my face upwards in distaste at the little machine. "Do you mind putting that away?" I snapped, wondering if she knew it was poisonous to the fey's blood. Another confused look flitted across her face, but she obviously opted not to question my sudden anger at her for bringing the thing out.

Instead she stood up and shouldered her bright orange bag and then glanced up to see Grimalkin loudening on a rock. "We're leaving." She said, "You're going to take me to Puck, I'm going to rescue Ethan, and we're going home."

"Arcadia, the Summer Court, is close. Remember, you owe me a small debt when we find your Puck. I will claim my price as soon as we find him. Don't forget." Grimalkin leaped from the rock and began to stroll onwards with Meghan and I trailing a few feet behind. I cast the girl a sideways glance. "You promised him a favor to find Puck didn't you?" When she nodded I groaned. "Human you have no idea what you've done do you?" I shook my head at the girl, but said not a word more until she decided to speak up.

"How do you know Puck?"

I snorted at her question. "I've known Puck my whole life, but he's a lot older than I am. He's Oberon's servant and a good friend of mine. Of course he disappeared about sixteen years ago without a word so I'll probably hurt him when we find him." I explained. Meghan fell into another round of silence and we continued on. Whenever laughter would echo from the canopy overhead she would jump almost like she expected something to jump out to try and scare us. By the time night had fallen she almost looked half asleep. I had to nudge her in the side to keep her awake.

A hiss ahead attracted my attention away from her. Grimalkin had stopped, his ears flattened. He hissed again only to slip off the trail and vanish. Meghan looked startled at his sudden departure as did I. I scanned the area, trying to find what had scared the Cait Sith off and then I saw them. A pair of riders were approaching, glowing in the darkness. I easily recognized the silver and gray mounts whose hooves didn't touch the ground. As they drew closer I found I recognized the tall, elegant riders. From their coppery hair, to their silver mail that flashed in the moonlight. "Princess Bryn what a surprise to see you. You're father's been wondering where you were." Talux, the faery on the left, spoke with an amused tone to his voice.

I smirked. "I'm assuming he's not happy about my disappearance then. He send you two after me?" I asked, glancing between Talux and Kegan.

"No." Kegan answered shortly, his eyes traveling over to the human girl standing beside me. "Is this Meghan Chase?" He asked curiously.

I nodded. "This is her. Why?"

Kegan kept his eyes trained on Meghan who swallowed nervously. "She will come with us. His Majesty King Oberon, Lord of the Summer Court, has sent for you."
