The Fairy

When I woke up, I was in some forest. The trees were gigantic. Bigger than any trees I ever saw for sure. It was beautiful, like a seen from an rpg. There were birds I'd never seen before. Then I realized Jin wasn't there.

"Jin! Jin! Where are you!"

He was nowhere in sight. "I must be dreaming" I thought. So I started walking. I walked for what seemed like hours. This forest was so big. I wondered if I'd wake up soon. Then something zoomed past me. "What was that?" I felt something tug my hair. "Huh! Who's there?"

"Teehee, heehee, giggle."

Is that giggling? Then I saw it. It was some kind of bug. No, it looked like a tiny person with wings!

"A fairy! I must be dreaming".

"you're not dreaming! I'm real"

"Uh…I've got to be dreaming."

"Well then, teehee, I guess I should prove to you then that you are not in a dream then." With that it flew right up to my face, and poked my nose so hard it hurt. Wait things aren't supposed to hurt in dreams, and that felt a little too real". Up close, I saw that it was a girl. She had purple hair, clear sparkly wings, and little clothes made of leaves.

"You're beautiful."

"Oh thank you, heehee, now do you think this is a dream?"

"I don't know, it's still kind of hard to believe, you see if this really isn't a dream, then I am probably not in my world."

"Really! You're not from this world!."

"No, I'm from Tokyo Japan."

"Where is that?"

"Ever heard of Earth?"

"No what's that?"

"The world I'm from."

"Huh! Are you serious! We haven't had a dimensional traveler in years."

"So there's been others?" I was surprised that I was not the only one. "Not very many. The last one was over 200 years ago. I wasn't alive then, of course. My great grandfather was. He has told me many stories of the Great Dimensional Warrior, Ceatus." Great warrior, huh. Well, I'm not one of those. I'm just your average high school student.

Maybe this fairy could get me to some civilization and maybe I could find a way home. "Hey, do think there's a way for me to get back to my world?" I asked hoping there was.

"Sure, but there's not a lot of ways. It might take awhile to find one."

"Do you think you could help me?"

"I would love to, but I'd have to ask my papa first. I'll be right back."

"Ok."

I waited for her to return. It didn't take long and she came with her papa too. Her father stared me down like I was some strange creature or something. It made me a little nervous, like I was waiting to see if I passed the test or something.

"Well, he does look like he isn't from around here. A dimensional traveler, eh? Well, my daughter has been waiting for a chance to see the world. I don't really want my little girl going away from home like this, but I know I can't stop her. Will you take care of her?"

"Yes"

"Good, then I shall allow it."

"Yay! Thank you papa!" she said as she hugged her father tightly. After she had gathered a few things in a tiny bag that she hung on her shoulder, we set off. "So what's your name fairy?"

"Dewdrop."

"That's an interesting name. Mine's Takeshi Nobuhiro."

"Ooh I like that. Can I call you Takeshi?"

"Sure." She beamed a huge smile at me. I had a feeling we were going to get to know each other well.
