Season 3 Episode 5.
ooOOOoo
Long ago, inside a distant memory, there is a voice that says, "Do you believe a world of happy endings?"
Even when the road seems long, every breath you take will lead you closer to a special place within your Neverever…
I woke up, to the sound of a siren pounding at my eardrum, and stifle my scream to death.
Yet unaware of what awaits me, I hold onto nothing but the sound of my heartbeat, and fall into the trap of reality.
I'll have no regrets.
Gazing at the piled up, torn to shreds, images of my future, I halt my breath, and the rusted needle of my memories, goes round and round, inside my head.
As I close my eyes, there aren't even any traces left behind, no sounds leaking out, no destination to be headed to I know this is what I want, this is what I need.
Even as we speak – your afterimage comes to mind, like an infinite loop.
With our past scars left unhealed, such barren, never-changing days, are coming to an end.
So now, this is my Nevereverland I've longed for.
Words, piercing right through me, like a wandering knife, go and make fun of my suffering.
Helplessly gulping down my trembling voice, I'm falling into the trap of solitude.
Stumbling onto my footsteps, I lose my sense of existence.
Standing on this tear-stained tragic stage, inside my heart, it's insanely, unsteadily clamoring.
As I take your hand, I'm escaping it all; the memories lying within my heart are fading I know that this is what I want, this is what I need.
Tomorrow as well, your afterimage will come to mind will come to mind, like an infinite loop.
With this twisted world I jumped into, still on-going, such barren, never-changing days, are coming to an end.
So now, this is my Nevereverland I've longed for.
As I wake up, like a trace of a faded dream, sunlight comes flooding in, covering the back of my eyelids.
And just when I think everything's come true, once again, I find myself falling.
As I close my eyes, there aren't even any traces left behind, no sounds leaking out, no destination to be headed to I know that this is what I want, this is what I need.
Even as we speak – your afterimage comes to mind, like an infinite loop.
With our past scars left unhealed, such barren, never-changing days, are coming to an end.
So now, this is my Nevereverland I've longed for.

Jennifer and the girls explored Xavier's home, hoping to find secret passageways or maybe find a hidden alchemy room with many potions lining the shelves.
"So Jenny, are you going to tell us what happened in your room the other day?" Li Ming teased as she raised her eyebrow cockily with a smirk.
The others giggled as Jennifer grew red as an apple. It seems like their friend was going something quite interesting with the Prince.
"I-It's not like that… I-I mean it is, no I mean, just, just shut up Ping!"
Jenny crossed her arms over her chest and bowed her head slightly, wanting to avoid the question entirely but as always the Worrier pressed on.
"Still you two must have been going something really intimate since I last saw you with a towel on and Xavier with his shirt off."
Cookie's face turned even redder by the minute as Li continued to talk on and on about the two of them. "So? It wasn't like I was naked and for the record Ping keep your damn mouth shut!"
She felt bad for snapping at her friend like that but she really had no right to get into her own business like that and said sorry when she finally calmed down.
Ming said sorry as well and gave her a lightning rose as an apology, which she happily took since she loved roses very much.
They continued to explore the castle and found a room, which looked, like the throne room.
Two Thrones stand on a high imperial pedestal above the ground above the ground that is gracefully lead by several steps carpeted in velvet and has soft embroidered cushions upon it.
The chairs themselves are made of incredibly thick solid gold. Jennifer placed a hand on the velvet. It was so soft.
They turned around when the doors opened and curtsied when the Queen appeared.
"Please, girls you don't have to curtsy every time I enter a room."
They stood up straight and Jenny smiled when the Queen touched her pendant. "Xavier really loves you doesn't he?"
The fairy touched the petals with her first fingers and thumbs, blushing when she remembered when they went on their first date.
He gave her the necklace as a token of his love for her and how sweet and gentle it was when they kissed for the first time.
"Yes… he does, he loves me for who I am and he wouldn't have me any other way"
"Your right, I wouldn't." A huge smile appeared on her face when the love of her life entered the room and ran over to him filled with joy. They both fell on the floor but they didn't care and kissed each other.
"I love you…" The brunette muttered between kisses.
"I love you too." She pulled back from the kiss with an even bigger smile but it faded when she looked at the others.
They had smirks on their faces and even Marian had one, feeling embarrassed they quickly stood up and tried to not make fools of themselves.
Xavier motioned his head to the side and walked to the doors with Jennifer following behind him. 'He looks so serious about something… I wonder what it could be?'
They walked up a flight of stairs and came to a door that had intricate scrollwork on it.
The fairy gasped when he opened it, there was a huge room that was made of shined mirrors so she could see herself from different angles.
However, hanging on the ceiling were countless, polished gemstones, each one cut like stained glass and each one showing a small picture of her face and his.
"It's… It's beautiful!" Jennifer smiled and touched a ruby piece, and it made a beautiful sound like church bells only softer.
Play {I Say Yes} By Ichiko, Wedding version.
ooOOOoo
"I'm glad that you love it but the reason why I brought you here was that…" He cut himself off, was it too early? 'Would she even say yes?'
No, he had to try and even if she said no then he would still love her no matter what so, he got down on his knee and searched for the little box in his coat.
Jennifer covered her mouth with her tattooed hand with wide dark red eyes when he finally pulled out the navy blue velvet box.
She trembled and cried as he opened the lid revealing a gorgeous yellow gold ring topped with white gold egg encrusted with 52 diamonds.
However, this ring beats all the others because the most special and romantic part was that the band had the letters {J and X} incorporated in the band design three times on each side.
Xavier took a deep breath and said the words that she longed to hear. "Jennifer, my Snowflake… would you do me the greatest honor of being mine, forever?"
"YES!" When she said that he dropped the box and lifted her up in the air and spun her around then gave her the most passionate kiss that he ever gave the fairy.
They smiled happily and he put the ring onto her wedding finger, it fitted her perfectly like it molded onto her. "I made it for you."
Jenny's head shot up and for a second she didn't say anything but then she let out a laugh since she thought that he was incapable of making such a beautiful piece of jewelry however, she was shocked when he had a serious look on his face.
He gently smacked her in the arm. "I'm being truthful!"
"Okay, okay!" She shook her head from side to side before continuing. "I really do love it Zavi, I mean it's a ring with an egg! Who wouldn't love that?"
The Prince blushed, he still couldn't get over that nickname and he was sure that Jennifer couldn't get over hers either.
She hugged him and got on her tippy toes to kiss him because she was a little bit shorter than he was. "Let's go tell the others."
They ran across the halls hand in hand and into Joseph's study. They had to take a moment to catch their breath while the others were looking at them like they were crazy.
"M… Mom, dad-I, I asked Jennifer if she would marry me and she said yes!"
Jenny showed them her ring and Li Ming and the others shouted happily while jumping for joy before giving her a huge group hug.
They almost knocked her over if she didn't catch her footing in time, thankfully she didn't.
"Oh my god, we're so happy for you!"
Jenny Darling smiled. "Thanks, guys but you're choking me,"
She took a deep breath in when they all finally got off her and held her King's hand in hers while also resting her head on his shoulder.
"So when's the date?"
Xavier and Jennifer looked at each other since they didn't think of that beforehand so they said that they didn't know.
Marian suggested that they have the wedding in the Crystal Solstice. "What!? That's 10 years away from now!"
"That's good; because that means that I'll have grandchildren."
"Mom, what the hell!" The Prince whispered slightly angrily as he wrapped his arms around the Princess protectively while she hid her face in his neck to hide her red, blushing face.
Joseph placed a hand on his wife's shoulder and told her that they were still just kids and that they have all the time they need to make a decision like that.
She nodded her head in understanding and told her future daughter-in-law that there was much to do and with a wave of her hand, they both disappeared in a cloud of turquoise smoke.
The others were rather surprised when the King and Queen left, except for Xavier because knew his parents liked to show off when they leave.
ooOOOoo
Luna's father, the Sultan brought her a cup of green tea to get her energy up as well as rosemary oil to heal her cuts and wounds.
"Thanks, father… oh, god I'm tired," She said tiredly with a yawn as she drank the tea while her father gently rubbed the oil on her legs and arms.
"You should be since you've been fighting monsters since you got back home from Alfea."
He cleaned his hands and took the empty from her then placed a kiss on her forehead before taking his leave.
She jumped when she heard slight tapping on her balcony door, quietly getting out of bed, she headed for the curtain covered door and summoned a ball of shadows, planning to attack the intruder.
The Cobbler raised her hand and pulled back the curtain and… "Crystal?"
The shadow ball dissipated in her hand and she let the little pixie in. "I saw the carnage outside, and it was… awful."
Cry shook her head to try to forget about those killed monsters, and apparently, the servants still had a lot of them to clean up and it would take weeks if not months for the smell to go away and that thought made her feel gross.
Luna rested in her bed again and told the pixie to come lay with her. She raised her hand and moved her finger in a circle to make a female shadow puppet appear and it even danced for them.
All night they watched shadows dancing around and they had fun too, not worrying about anything else.

At the edges of my recollection, the distant promise that continues for eternity sways silently.
Destroy the Transient World that is drenched in sadness.
Changing out my despair for loneliness, I raised it with love, all alone, until the day I met you.
Come to this place, and let us overlap our hearts.
I will take out your thorns.
I play to the future that has crumbled to ruin.
Pick up your yell, and let us share a kiss.
The little bird that was betrayed by love continued to wonder, searching for a birdcage.
She locked up her emotions even though there was no key.
As if caring for an open wound with love, I buried it deeply within the earth.
In your poison, in the temperature of your hand, my heart is drowning in a feverish feeling.
Come to this place.
Even on days when everything is empty, and is swallowed by ruin, I want to count you.
In order to yell now, I fly.
In order to sing a song of love.
If I lose my feverish feeling, and fall to the ground, then pick up my shell with both your hands.
"If you throw off the feeling, transient world, you should be able to fly, even if you are alone."
Come to this place, and let us overlap our hearts.
I will take out your thorns.
In the rain of big drops that wets your face, as if the needle of time has stopped, let us share a kiss.
ooOOOoo
Xavier finally proposed to Jennifer! Oh my gosh, I am so excited to write the wedding but it won't be until Season 10 so that's a bummer.
Anyway, I hope you all love it and stay tuned for the next chapter of We Shall Find Our Freedom.
L-O-V-E Y-O-U!
