Sophia And The Hidden Talent

by collinsl

Sophia was a fairy. But she felt and didn't liked her talent she was chosen for. If she were to change her talent, it wouldn't be possible because the Fairy Law doesn't let anyone change their talents or argue against it. She nearly lost hope because of this and knew there was no way. One day she came up with a brilliant idea. An idea that would change her life...

Sophia

Sophia's golden hair flowed behind her as a gentle hush of wind passed her. Her beautiful patterned wings shimmered in the moonlight. She was lying down on a large round green leaf relaxing and staring at the glittering stars. Sophia was a fairy that hadn't found her true talent, she was chosen for a garden fairy but it just wasn't her type, others didn't think it was right either. But she had no choice, once you get your talent, you can't change it or argue against it due to Fairy Law. "Hey Soph, called Amy. What's up?" "Nothing", answered Sophia. "I'm not an expert, but I know when someone's sad" said Amy. Sophia sighed. "It's just- Sophia cut-off. I have to live with a talent that isn't right for me and there's nothing I can do about it", said Sophia welling up with a tear. "I'm so sorry, Sophia, there's nothing I can do to help. You never know, you might just not be used to the new talent and need extra time to like it..." suggested Amy. "Thanks for your help, but I still feel that it's not right", sniffed Sophia. "What about you come to my place and I'll cheer you up with Fairy-Hot-Drink", asked Amy. "Ok then" said Sophia, wiping a tear. Amy helped Sophia up and they walked off, hand-in-hand. A Fairy Hovercraft Car stood waiting on the side of a Fairy-Transport-Path. "This is my Fairy Hovercraft, Rose, commented Amy. Do you like it?" "That's the newest one! Beamed Sophia in awe. Rose was red with black flower patterns on it. I wish I had a Fairy Hovercraft like that! Unfortunately though, I have a Fairy Wing called Sandy. It's at home right now as well. I know... I know... It's the worst Fairy Wing ever", added Sophia. "Nah... It's not that bad", Confessed Amy. "I think it is, but never mind that, I want to go inside and check Rose out!" Said Sophia excitedly. Without another word, the girls rushed inside the Hovercraft, Rose. "I dibs driving", blurted Sophia as she sat down in the driver seat. And as quickly as they got inside the car, they drove off. Sophia could feel the air drift onto her face and the slightest noise of Rose going brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr as it hovered in mid air. Amy looked at her watch. "Its 10:30pm right now", worried Amy. "Don't worry, I'll still be able to stay with you for a bit. It doesn't matter anyway because I'm an early-riser", explained Sophia.
