Chapter Two: I Feel Delusional
My head whipped up, and I glanced wildly around for the owner of the voice.I must have looked crazy with my head swiveling around like a bobble head.
"Over here silly!" came the melodic voice again, followed by a tinkling peal of laughter.
I looked down at my backpack, and there perched daintily on the handle, was a small humaniod creature. Oh, but what a sight!
She was beautiful, with long silky silver hair flowing down to her back. An elegant dark green gown made of leaves along with miniscule light pink flower petal slippers adorned her graceful figure. Two almond shaped, innocent green eyes much like the shade of mine stared at me, and right below the straight, freckle sprinkled nose was a stunning, friendly pink smile. Her ears were elvish, with little pointed tips that were twitching with curiosity. What really took my breath away were her wings. Long and graceful, her wings shimmered and sparkled in a rainbow of colors as she tilted her head this way and that. The translucent wings could well be compared to a diamond, with it's dazzling colors and flawless shape. A pixie.
Am I becoming delusional? It ceartinly felt like it. Here I am, on an overcrowded bus with sanitation problems, and humans shouting and screaming their heads off, while a pixie rests calmly on my backpack. Yup, totally normal.
"Are you Jasmine?" she trilled in her bell like voice, cocking her head ever so slightly to the right.
"Ye-yes," I stammered in astonishment. "What is your name, fair creature of the air?" I knew pixies loved to be praised, and this one was especially pleased. i could see it in the way her ears turned a bright red in pleasure at my words like a lightbulb.
"Evelyn," she replied, pulling out something from her hair. I peered closer, and realized Evelyn held a pin. She whizzed up and let the pin fall into my hands.
"It will help you later on,' she explained, glancing quickly out the window. "We will meet again Jasmine Hua." And with that, her wings fluttered, and she was gone.
I stared stupidly out the grimy window for about ten seconds. Finally, I gathered my wits and examined the pin. It was made of sturdy silver colored metal, with intricate designs of springtime engraved and outlined with gold. With shaking hands, I carefully tucked the precious treasure into my pockets, wrapping it in a napkin to protect it.
The ride to school was a silent one for me, full of questions unanswered.
