Plans

The two of them flew away from the castle and into the woods.

Tink sighed. "Terrence…I'm sorry. I shouldn't gotten mad at you. I took it too personally. It's my fault…I'm so, so sorry." She looked down expecting him to be mad.

Terrence lifted her chin to look at him. "Tink it's okay. I'm sorry too, really. It's just as much my fault. I shouldn't have said that, I wasn't thinking. I didn't mean to hurt your feelings like that. Can you forgive me?"

Tink smiled. "As long as you can forgive me."

He took her hand in his. "I forgive you Tink."

Tink squeezed his hand. "So can we still be together?"

Terrence leaned towards her and kissed her lips. "Does that answer your question?" he said with a smirk.

Tink nodded. She put her arms around him and kissed him again. "I love you Terrence."

Terrence kissed her deeply. "I love you too Tink."

They were silent for a moment looking into the eyes of the one they loved. "So tell me what happened," Tink said.

They sat down on the ground. "Well, after we had that fight I was flying through Winter Woods that night then all of a sudden they grabbed me and dragged me out of Pixie Hollow. So I tried to get away but they're way too strong. Then they brought me here and locked me in that cage."

"Why?"

"Since I'm one of the best dust fairies, I don't mean to brag." Tink laughed. "They took me because they want our pixie dust. 'Cause you know that's some powerful stuff and they wanted to use it for some bad stuff or whatever, I'm not sure exactly what but they think they can get it from me."

"That's terrible. We need to stop them. They might try to come to pixie hollow or something." She imagined those huge creatures stomping through Pixie Hollow destroying everything and to the pixie dust tree. Like Terrence said, pixie dust was powerful stuff and fairies had unlimited power with it. They just didn't use the power to the extent that they could use it to. Put in the wrong hands pixie dust could be very bad.

"I know, but what are we going to do?"

Tink thought for a moment. "I need a rope and…some sort of hook."

"There was one in that room."

"Perfect."

They got the rope but couldn't find a hook so they found some metal to make a hook out of. Terrence watched as Tink banged the metal into place with a rock still skeptical as to what she was trying to do. "So tell me, what exactly are we gonna do with this stuff?"

"We're gonna threaten them," Tink said still focused.

"With a rope and a hook?"

Tink looked around. "Blast that branch over there," she said pointing to a small tree about ten feet away from them.

"Okay." Terrence shot a blast of bright light from his hand to the tree and it broke the branch. This was a measure of self defense for fairies although it was rarely used because it was dangerous. Fairies wielded this kind of power but they had no reason to use it because they were rarely attacked in Pixie Hollow. "I get it, we're gonna tie them up and kill them, right?"

Tink looked at him surprised. "I wasn't thinking we kill them, just threaten them."

"Ohh, I see." He kissed her lips. "You and your brilliant plans."

Tink kissed him back. "I know."

They went back inside and flew around the castle looking for the two gremlins. Terrence heard something in the next room. "This way Tink."

They went inside and found the two gremlins with beer bottles laughing and talking.

"Hey!" Tink shouted.

They looked up and saw the fairies in the big doorway. "How'd you get out?"

"You shouldn't have left the key in the room," Terrence said. Tink laughed. "Come get us, bitches!"

Tink flew around and distracted them. "Aw you guys are slow! Is that all you've got?"

Terrence worked on tying them up. He flew around them with the rope and they were too distracted with Tink that they didn't realize what was going on. Then he got the rope tighter around them and kept circling them.

"What the…?"

Tink stuck her tongue out at them and one of them smacked her and made her fly into the wall. "AH!"

Terrence saw her fly across the room and hit the wall. "Tink!" He tied a knot in the rope and the gremlins struggled but couldn't break free. Terrence flew quickly over to Tink. "Are you okay?"

Tink rubbed her head. "I think so."

Terrence helped her up. "Come help me." They grabbed the end of the rope with the hook on it and somehow managed to lift the gremlins off the ground. Then they hung the hook on one of the beams on the ceiling. They laughed at the gremlins struggling. Tink shot a blast at them and they screamed. "We should kill you for trapping me in here," Terrence said. He shot at them again but purposely missed. They screamed again.

"Please spare us!"

"We're sorry, we'll never do it again."

"Oh you'd better be sorry. If you ever come to Pixie Hollow again this," Tink shot at the clock next to them making it shatter and the glass fly everywhere. "will be your head!" The gremlins eyes got wide in fear. Then Tink and Terrence started to leave satisfied by the terrified looks on their faces.

"Hey, aren't you gonna let us go?"

"Hmm, no," Tink said.

"We'll let you figure that one out on your own," Terrence said. He kissed Tink. "Let's get out of here Tink."

They left as the gremlins shouted and begged behind them.
