~chapter 6~

ENJOY!

Next morning Claire tried to pack her bags, but she couldn't decide what to pack. She heard a tap, her father came in.

'' would you like me to help'? he asked.

Milori packed them soon and when Claire was not looking he put some stuff he brought to it. Ree's silver comb which engraved a pattern of flower vines and a "c", which Claire loved, his old cape and Claires' favourite book, mystery of neverland snowy owls.

After that he sat on the bed and motioned Claire to sit beside him.

'' Claire dear, I 'm telling you something important so listen carefully. You can't cross into winter with other warm fairies..''

'' why daddy? ''

Because your little wings are not too strong enough to withstand cold over there''

..''then you can't go tours in pixie hollow alone, there are hawks and other animals, and you might injure yourself , I don't want to ….''he paused. ''and finally be a good princess and behave, listen to fairy mary, right?''

Yes daddy , I will'' Claire promised and hugged her father.

Just then they heard a tap on the door. '' my lord, fairy Mary is waiting '' said viola.

'' now come on , my little butterfly'' he said, holding her hand.

Both went to the pixie dust tree centre, where Fairy Mary was waiting. As lord Milori spoke with Mary, Claire saw a thin, sparrowman with ginger hair,strong wings and dewdrop glasses and overweight sparrowman with black hair and small wings looking at her, she smiled.

Both bowed to her, and thin sparrowman spoke. '' my lady, Phinease T. Kettletree Esquire at your service.''

Poor Claire found it was very hard to spell his name, but then other one spoke, pointing at him, he said, '' he's Bobble and I'm Clank''

''Clanky'' other one looked shocked. '' sorry my lady, he is Clank and call me Bobble''

Before Claire could say anything, fairy Mary spoke, finishing her discussion with Milori, '' boys , take princess Claires' luggage to the cart''. As clank and bobble took the bags and went to load them to the cart, Claire turned to her father. She had finally realised that she was leaving, so tears were streaming down from her blue eyes. But she wiped them, more like her mother, she was determined not to show her emotions in public.

Milori couldn't look at those eyes, they made him remember clarion's eyes , very same on the day which they said goodbye to each other,at the border. So, he just walked away, quickening his pace.

Mary almost dragged tearing up princess out of the pixie dust tree, and hugged the little princess. '' don't worry dear , he will return soon''

Claire wiped her tears. Then a buzzing noise appeared from her behind. It was her friend glitter who was surprised to see the princess outside the pixe dust tree.

'' we are going to tinkers'nook , glitter'' Claire explained to the surprised firefly. And she turned her attention to cheese who were tied to the cart and patted his head. Clank and Bobble loaded Claires'bags and they all set off to tinkers'nook.

Claire had only been in springtime square and summer meadows only a handful of times, and only once she had visited to tinkers'nook with her father. They used a short cut where now dust talent sparrowmen used to goto autumn forest ( dust talents use carts and newly invented skateboards to distribute pixie dust rations) but Claire enjoyed the view.

But something caught her eye, it was two animal talent fairies, who were trying to teach baby squirrel how to climb trees, but it had converted to an exhausting task as they had no pixie dust to fly. Both had use vines to make themselves to tie up to a branch, but they kept falling.

Claire felt guilty, she knew everything happened to pixie hollow after her mother's fading, but she had never experienced it, now she felt it was her fault that all fairies were suffering like this.

They soon arrived their destination , tinkers were very busy, making machines to help other talents.

''Tinkerbell'' fairy Mary called. A young fairy in a green dress shot passed them, yelling, '' give me a minute fairy Mary ''.

'' oh tinkerbell, you are testing those ridiculous shoes again, ….''fairy Mary couldn't complete her sentence as tinkerbell, who was unable to keep her balance crashed on fairy Mary. Clank and Bobble helped both to stand up. '' sorry fairy Mary'' Tink smiled sheepishly.

'' Tinkerbell, how many times do I have to tell you not to test those shoes in here'' Mary huffed.

Claire saw tink was wearing pair of wheeled shoes ( these were fairy sized skates, but Claire was seeing them for first time)and curiously looked at her.

Tink's jaw dropped when she saw the princess.

''Tinkerbell , this is'' .. '' princess Claire'' tink completed fairy Mary's sentence and smiled with the princess.

Claire instantly felt that tinkerbell was good natured and kind, so, she returned the smile, from which both tinkers reminded of the queen.

'' tinkerbell, can you share your house with the princess, until we prepare a one for her''? Mary asked.

''If princess like, she can stay with me until lord Milori returns'' tink answered looking at Claire.

Claire nodded.

'' so then boys, take those bags to tinkerbell's house'' odered fairy Mary.

Clank and Bobble unloaded the bags and took them to tink's house while tinkerbell helped princess up the ladder which lead to her house.

So, hope you enjoyed!
