One fairy said, "Hi, there! I'm Fawn, the leader of the animal-talent's, and I'll be your mentor" they welcomed me with open arms. "Um...why don't I show you where we animal-talent's live," Fawn said, excitedly. Everyone agreed, we quickly fluttered off, Fawn talked to me as we went. "So...with you being the new fairy and all" She began, "you probably don't know that. Well, everyone has a talent around here. Which allows some fairies and sparrowmen to go out to the mainland, like...water-talent's, garden-talent's, light-talent's, and of course us animal-talent's. Oh! Yeah, I guess fast-flying talent's go, too.
Then, there are those who just stay here, like those tinker-talent's. But that doesn't mean that they're not important, too. All us talent's are important! In fact, without tinker-talent's we wouldn't have the necessary supplies needed, we get all of what we need here in Pixie Hollow then we take it to the mainland."
"Ooo, the mainland!" I said, with interest. Closing my eye, I tried desperately to imagine the wonderful place.
"Well, we're here," Fawn said, suddenly. The sound of Fawn's voice immediately snapped me out of my daze.
"Who? What? Where? Um...I wasn't dosing"
"Um...Oh, ok, yeah, sure" she said, in surprise.
"Oh, it's beautiful!" I heard myself say. All around me there were all sorts of creatures! It looked like it was early spring.
"...and, look you get your very own house," she said, excitedly. "Well...now, I would like to give you a tour of your house. But, I've got to go to work. I'll check back with you in a little while. Ok? See you then, chickadee."
"Ok, see you later!" I said. So while I was wondering around my house, I stumbled upon...a closet. "My very own closet" I thought "yay! This is going to be FUN." As I peered in curiously, I saw...loads and loads of, different colored leaf outfits. I was puzzled, and then I thought. "Hmm, Oh" at that point I got an idea. I immediately took the light orange leaf outfit, grabbed some scissors off a nearby table, and began cutting.
Before I knew it, it was done! I carefully stepped backwards to admire my hard work. When I felt happy with myself, I quickly put it on. "Oh, Fawn is going to be SO surprised!" I thought, excitedly. As I quickly fluttered outside, to show Fawn.
"Oh!" Fawn gasped, in shock.
"What? What?" I said. Fearing, she may not...like it.
"Oh, nothing" she exclaimed
"No! Really, is there something wrong?" I wondered
"Oh, no! No. Really, it looks GREAT on you. It's just that, you look...a little like...me"
"Oh, really. I mean...I can go change if you want?"
"No, no, I think it's kind of...cute"
"Oh, really! Thanks" and then I added "Um...Fawn, I really thought, you were going to...um...freak out when I showed you my outfit"
"Oh! No, no, no, don't be silly Crystal" then, Fawn just suddenly...BURST out laughing.
"Hey! Why are you laughing?" I was boiling with rage now.
"Oh, I was just thinking, of your face and how stupid you looked" Fawn said, still laughing.
"Hey! Stop it" I was beginning to cry now. So I ran inside my house
"Wait! Crystal, I didn't mean it." I could hear her say, as she ran after me.
Slamming the door in her face, locking the door behind me. "Go away!" I yelled, from behind the door.
"Open the door, please! I wanna talk to ya." She said,
"Um...ok" I said, unsure.
"That a girl" Fawn said. When I open the door,
Fawn grabbed my hand and dragged me over to my bed. When Fawn sat me down on my own bed, I was shocked.
"Fawn! Wh, wh, what's the big idea!" I said, still looking hotly at her. As Fawn sat on the bed with me, she said.
"Oh! Sorry, Crystal. But I just really wanted to talk to you, sometimes when I really, really, want to talk to someone. I can't control myself, and what my actions' are" she sighed, then said. "Now, that we've gotten that out of the way. Let's talked" Fawn made the first move, "Hey! Don't be so down, my friend." "Look, forget what I said. I was...just play 'in" she said, in a soft, sweet, voice.
"Really, it didn't seem like...you were kidding" I said sternly.
"Well, that's just me. I didn't mean it, really."
"Ok, I'll take your word for it." I said, but I still had my suspicions.
"Ok, so what do you say? Friends?"
"I'll consider your offer. On one condition" I said. As I was beginning to trust her now,
"and what might that be?" she said, with that curious...look in her eye.
"If you promise you'll never do it again", I said. As I watched her raise her...right hand, and said.
"Promise" letting her hand slowly, drop down.
"Ok, then. Friends" as I hugged, and walk out with Fawn. A glowing light came down, and to my surprise. It was...the lovely, Queen Clarion! "Oh, my, your majesty! What are you doing here?"
"Congregations! Crystal, you not only ROCK a stylish, new outfit, but you also learned...how to put trust in a friend."
"Oh, thank you! Queen Clarion," I said, proudly. "I will always remember this moment"
"I'm glad. Now, go have fun exploring here in Pixie Hollow" She said, to me.
"Ok, I will!" as I few away, with Fawn. I began to back at her, flattering towards her. Landing at my feet placing mine next to hers, then, saying. "Oh! Queen Clarion." I began to say,
"Yes," Queen Clarion said.
"If it's not too much trouble..."
"Yes...go 'on, out with it! It's only us here, you can trust me. Tell me whatever's on your mind"
"Well, ok" I said. Then I add, "If you're sure"
"I'm sure. Now come on tell me" she persisted.
"Ok!" I said, suddenly...I could feel something, like everything was telling my brain...that I could trust her, too. "Um...Queen Clarion, could I tell you something?"
"Yes, what is it young one."
"Well...I've been thinking, and well..." I began.
"Yes, go on" she and, as she urged me on.
"Well...I thought that, we can be friends. Too" and then, I add quickly. "I mean, if you want"
"Well, now. If you would just wait a minute, please! It's just...with the amount of trust you put in today. I'd like to present you with something," and then, she added. "Wait here! I'll be back."
"Ok" I said, with great curiosity. As I waited for Queen Clarion, I was still curious, as to what she was bringing out.
Just then, Fawn flattered back. As she landed at my feet, "Hey, why did you turn back?" she asked, curiously.
"Well...I just wanted to see, if Queen Clarion wants to be our..." I hesitated, before continuing.
"Our what?" Fawn asked.
"Our...um..." I hesitated, again. "Friend" I finally said.
"That's it?" she laughed.
"Um...yeah...are you mad?" I said, nervously.
"No..." she said. "That was a very good idea!" she added. "Have you told, her yet?"
"No! I mean, I was about to. When..." before I could finish. Queen Clarion came back,
"Oh! I'm sorry, but it took me...forever! To find what I was looking for"
"It's ok, now! What is this...thing you're giving me? I said, out of passions.
"Ok, close your eyes" She ordered me, "Oh, hi Fawn" she acknowledged.
"Oh, hi!" Fawn said.
"Now, close your eyes" she told me, I obeyed- so did Fawn "not you!" Queen Clarion said. "Crystal"
"Oh, her" Fawn said, hotly.
"Now, Crystal. Make share those, eyes are closed tight"
"They are"
"Good. Hey! You don't mind if I sing do you?"
"Why, no. no I don't"
"Thanks. It just soothes me, whenever I do this."
"No prob. whatever makes you feel comfortable!" before I knew it, she was singing. As she sprinkled: something on my head. The lyrics seemed...so...familiar somehow, the lyrics went like this:
• Watch all the flowers
• Dance with the wind
• Listen to snowflakes
• Whisper your name
• Feel all the wonder
• Lifting your dreams
• You can fly
• Fly to who you are
• Climb upon your star
• When you believe
• You'll find your wings
• Fly to your heart
• Touch every rainbow

• A sprinkle of pixie dust
• Circles the night
• You can fly
• Fly to who you are
• Climb upon your star
• When you believe
• You'll find your wings
• Fly

• Fly, you can fly to your heart
"Ok, you can open your eyes now, Crystal!" Queen Clarion said, slowly.
"Oh, where did you learn that? I mean, it sounds so familiar..." I began to say. But when I opened my eye, I didn't feel any different.
"Wait!" she went away, for a second. when, she got back. I could tell, that she was holding...something. "Here, Look into this!" She said, with great delight. She was holding, to what looked like...A mirror? What was she playing at?
"Um, Queen Clarion" I began.
"Yes..." She said.
"I don't feel any different"
" You don't?" She said, puzzled.
"Well, um...no, I don't" Queen Clarion laughed, and then said.
"Well...I think it will, become clear to you. If you'll just take...the time to look"
"Look? Look where?" I asked, frantically.
"Look, here!" she said. "I placed a mirror. Right here" she was right! Sure enough, there was a mirror: and it was right in front under my nose, too. "Well...don't just stand there, look in" she said. "I'm sure, you'll like what you see!" she said, with great confidence.
"Ok, I'm trusting you" I said. As I looked in, I began to laugh.
"Hey, what's so funny?" she asked. "You hate it, don't you?
"No, no!" I said, to reassure her. "I love it, really. I do"
"I'm glad!" she said, delighted. "I made it! With my own two hands" I couldn't believe it! My gift was...an outfit, yes! An outfit, the parts of it included: an orange hat, a Custard Yellow Kerchief, a Snow White Animal-Talent Tee, Snow White Sport Shorts, and a pair of Orange Referee Shoes.
"Oh, this looks perfect on me"
"I'm so glad, you like it!" she said.
"I'm going to go show Fawn, right now! I said, eagerly. But when I turned around, Fawn had...vanished. "Fawn! Oh, Fawn!" I called "Uh, oh!"
"So...this would be a bad time, to say that. I had enough material to make one, for Fawn and myself, too. She replied, then she added. "Oh! Did you know, that I made ALL of the outfit. For example I've outfits, for the follow: animal-talent's, garden-talent's, water-talent's, tinker-talent's, and...light-talent's." she gave me, an outfit to deliver to Fawn.
"Thank you" I said, "But...how am I going to carry it?" I asked.
"Oh, I almost forgot. Here" she handed me... a box "here" she said, in a whisper. "It's to carry her outfit in" "now, hurry! Remember I want it be a surprise." she added, "Oh, and make sure to tell her. That, as of now you and her can now join "Camp Pixie Dust" along with myself, of course!"
"Wait! Does this mean?" I asked, excitedly.
"Yes, I will be your friend. Crystal!"
"Yay!" I though. "Oh! Queen Clarion. How can I, ever thank you!"
"Oh, just by being, yourself. Is thanks enough"
"Man...that's so sweet, you're heinous"
"Oh, Crystal! Now you're making me blush!" she replied, "Now hurry! Go find your friend, and re-gain your friendship. Before it's too late"
"Thank you! For everything, madam"
"No prob. Oh, and Crystal!"
"Yeah!"
"Stop trying to impress, me! It's crazy. Now that I'm your friend"
"Oh, sorry."
"It's ok. Now, so long! Yong one."
"Fly with you later, Queen Clarion."
"You too" As I few away, I know. I had made Queen Clarion, very happy. I flew for, what seemed like hours. Until, I came upon a...small house.
"This must be Fawns' house" I through. As I, slowly... opened the door. I found Fawn; on...her bed, she was cry. "What's wrong?" I asked.
"Queen Clarion. Hates me!" she blurted out, in big sobs.
"Now; where on earth. Did you get that idea from?" I asked, questioningly.
"I got the idea, when Queen Clarion started to give you a present." she looked up at me teary-eyed. "By the way, what did she give you?"
"Oh; it's nothing, just...a band new outfit!" I tried to say, nonchalantly. I stood up; and spun around, a bit.
"Oh! Crystal, that looks beautiful on you?" she said, as I sat down. "To bad I don't have one" she said, her eyes filled with hope.
"Yeah, that is too bad" I said. "Well, maybe this; will brighten your day" I said. I put the present on her bed,
"What's this? A present, for me" she said, as she quickly opened it. "Oh! Crystal" she gasped, then burst into tears.
"Oh, no!" I thought, my face filled with worry. When she saw the expression on my face, she said.
"Oh! Don't worry" she quickly added. "These aren't tears of sorrow, their tears of joy" she exclaimed. "Thanks, Crystal!" She squealed, with delight. Than added, "Now! We can be twines" she said.
"Oh, and Queen Clarion said...something, about a "Pixie Dust Camp" I said, confused.
"That must be what these outfits are for!" she said, excitedly.
"Yes, but where is it. Exactly" I said.
"Huh, well...to tell you the truth, I don't know" she said. As we sat around, thinking. I heard a voice, in my head say
"Ballroom, it in the Ballroom"
"That voice, it sounds like Queen Clarions!" I thought.
"Hey, Fawn! I got it. It's in the Ballroom."
The ballroom, of course!" I looked at her, puzzled. Then she said "that's where we hold, ALL of the events. Around here"
"Oh..." I said, now understanding. "But, where is the Ballroom?"
"Um...I don't know"
"You don't know!" I looked at her. "Well, I mean...I've been invited to events before, but I've always been...just, too busy to go" as we were thinking, that voice came back. But this time it said,
"The Ballroom is in Havendish Square"
"it's in Havendish Square" I blurted out.
"Havendish Square!? That's in the center of Pixie Hollow, near the Pixie Dust Tree!" she exclaimed. "Oh! Crystal. Where do you come up...with these answers? She asked. "They're right!" she exclaimed.
"Oh, I'll tell you. Now, don't call crazy or anything. But...I keep hearing, this voice...in my head. It sounded like the voice of Queen Clarion!"
"But...that's impossible. Unless Queen Clarion, is...your friend"
"Let's just...forget all this nonsense, and go to the Ballroom" I said, changing the subject.
"Sounds like a plain!" Fawn said, agreeing with me. When we walked out, I saw...Queen Clarion. Standing there, as if she had been listening! But she few away in a flash, like she was embarrassed; I immediately, knew where she was going.
"Hurry go get changed, I'll wait for you. Here! She was back in a flash. "Come on, let's fly" I said, with GREAT confidants.
"Well, ok!" She said, unsure. We flew: and flew. Until, we came to Havendish Square. We landed at the door, to the Ballroom. When we walked in, we couldn't believe, what we saw. Fairies and Sparowman, all dressed up. In...to be their "Camp Pixie Dust" or "talent" uniforms. There were: animal-talent, garden-talent, water-talent, tinker-talent, and...light-talent, uniforms. We walked pass, all kind of fairies and sparowman. Until, we saw a...a stage: towards the back of the Ballroom. We even saw Terrance; he was on stage...announcing something, so we both decided to listen. Thinking it was something important. I tried to listen, but...my mind kept wondering off, and it seemed to me that it was too busy...focusing on other things.
"Ah, I never guessed how Terrance's eyes got so...so... pretty" I said, with a yawn.
"Crystal, Crystal, snap out of it!" Fawn said, as she shook me.
"Oh my gosh! What did he say?" I sighed, and then said. "I'm sorry: I guess I was too busy staring at...Terrance...to listen" I said, a dreamy look started to fill my eye once again, however I blinked it away hurriedly. "I even gave, the...place I go to...a name"
"I'm kind of...scared to ask. But...what do you call the place?" she asked, in a sarcastic way. "The Terrance Taverns" I said, proudly. "Don't tell anyone ok" my voice dropped down to a whisper, as I said this.
"You got it, Cross my heart." "Now, shhh...I think Terrance is, about to speak"
"Wait! So I didn't miss anything?" I whispered.
"No, you didn't" she whispered back.
"Few, thank goodness" I whispered, again.
"Yeah, I know. I'm so happy for you" she said, sarcastically. "Now, shhh!" I listened carefully, to what he said.
"Attention! Attention, please!" I heard him say. "I have an announcement" "I present, the hostess of this and all our events. Please...welcome. The lovely, Queen Clarion!" Everyone started cheering. As Terrance quickly walk off the stage, making way for Queen Clarion.
"Thank you, thank you!" she said, proudly. "I do declare the "Pixie Dust Camp(s)" to be officially open" when she walked off the stage. Fawn and I...went ahead, and walked over to her. Saying,
"You flew away so quickly, that we didn't have a chance to say. What is "Pixie Dust Camp" anyway?" I started off, saying.
"Well, like on the mainland. The Pixie Dust Camp here in Pixie Hollow, is just like their summer camps" "By the way...how did you know...were to go, anyway?" Queen Clarion asked.
"Oh, um...well..." I stammered. When Fawn saw, that I was struggling. She began saying
"Oh, she..."
yes..." Queen Clarion said, curiously.
"Well, as we were thinking...of where it could be. She...um...well, she said to me that she heard this little voice inside her head"
"oh, I see..."
"She said it kinda sounded...like you"
"I see...and who told you this?"
Well...it was, this girl...right here" she point, directly at...me.
"Why, Crystal! Was it you?"
"Um, well..." I stammered, again.
"Crystal" Queen Clarion said, impatiently. I gulped,
"Yes" I said. In a low voice,
"What did you say?" Queen Clarion asked.
"Aright! Alright! It was me, I told her" I blurted out, fed up with it.
"Why, Crystal. I know why you keep hearing my voice" Queen Clarion said.
"You do?" Fawn said, out of curiosity.
"Yes..." she said, with satisfaction. Then she added. "Crystal, my young friend, is a seeker!"
"Um..." I began. "What a seeker?" I asked.
"Well, I seeker...is someone who puts thought in something or seeks something so must that you hear...um, voices in your head. Telling you what to do" she explained.
"Oh...yeah, that make since!" I exclaimed, now understanding. Queen Clarion continued by saying,
"and you Fawn are a 1st rate truster of friendship!" "Congratulations, you to" at that moment, all the mentor fairies. They took turn coming up and hugged me and Fawn, slowly...forming a line, as they went.
The first fairy: came up to me, and said. "Hi, I'm Tinker bell!" I was about, to say
"Hi, I'm Crystal!" when Fawn broke in, and said.
"Fawn, I'm Crystal's mentor." She paused, then said. "Oh! Sorry, Crystal. Now what were you trying to say?"
"Hi, I'm Crystal! I'm an animal-talent fairy. I see you've already met my...mentor, Fawn" I finally blurted out,
"Congrats, Fawn and Crystal. I'm a Tinker-talent, oh! I almost forgot...it was nice to meet you."
"It was nice to meet you, too." We said, together. This went on for a couple minutes, every time a fairy said,
"Hi, I'm Silvermist. I'm a water-talent"
"Hi, I'm Rosetta. I'm a garden-talent"
"Hi, I'm Iridessa. I'm a light-talent"
"Hi, I'm Vidia. I'm a fast-flying fairy".
"We should all keep in touch" I exclaimed. "What do you say?" I asked, they all agreed. "Great!" I squealed, with delight; at the sound of this. "Ok, all we need is...some way to communicate" I stated. "Any of you got any ideas?" I asked.
"Oh, I got it!" Fawn squealed. She rummaged through, what looked like a...a backpack, for a couple of...fairy sized Cell Phones? It took me a...while to get it.
Then I got it, "I get it!" I finally blurted out. I quickly grabbed the Cell Phones, and handed them out. "One for you, Tinker Bell" I replied, hand them out happily. "and one for you, Silvermist"
"Yeah, thank you"
"and one for you, Rosetta"
"Thank you"
"and one for you, Iridessa"
"Thank you"
"and one for you, Vidia" Vidia sighed, and said.
"Huh, do I have to?" Queen Clarion came by Vidia's side, then said.
"Now...Vidia! She scolded. "You know you have, too"
"I Know" Vidia sighed, again.
Then Queen Clarion added, "Besides it's not nice if you don't" she said sweetly. "Just say...thank you, it's not that hard. Heck it's not hard at all!"
"Well, if you say so" she gulped, then muttered. "I can't believe I'm saying this..." she gulped, again.
"Go on, I'm right here" Queen Clarion urged.
"Huh, thank you, Crystal!"
"Now was that so...hard?"
"Yes!" Vidia said.
"Oh, stop. Seriously stop"
I even saved 2 Cell Phones left for: Terence and Queen Clarion.
"Here, you are. Terence" I said. Beaming at him, "and...here's one for you, your highness"
"Why thank you," Queen Clarion said.
"You can take your own picture, and then insert all your...home and cell phone numbers"
"Great!" Queen Clarion, cheered.
"Tell everyone here!"
"I will, oh! I will" she promised.
"and if you see, anyone...who would like: to be a part of this. I have extra cell phones" I added. As we exchanged pictures and contact information. I think everyone: even Vidia, could agree. That, this would. Be a day...for ALL, to remember. Forever".
