Chapter 6
David made his way down to the base of the Pixie Dust Tree, where Queen Clarion and the Ministers of Seasons were. He could hear them talking, and decided to listen in. He flew around the tree and leaned in so he could hear but not be seen.
"He must know the truth Queen Clarion," He heard the Minister of Summer say. "If you don't tell him soon, he will begin to ask questions."
"I agree," the Minister of Winter said. "The way he earned his talent was very different from yours."
"We know that you and David are able to hear the voice of the Tree, as are we," the Minister of Autumn said. "The Tree has given part of its own life to David."
"This, as we all know-especially you Queen Clarion-is dangerous," the Minister of Spring said. "His connection to the Tree not only makes him powerful, but also puts the Tree at a great risk."
"I understand the situation," he heard Queen Clarion say, "but please, he is young. Do not deny him the chance to live a long and happy life. He deserves at least that."
David moved back a little, he didn't want to listen anymore. He flew up to the heart of the tree, where the Pixie Dust was flowing. He sat down next to the pool of Pixie Dust, and closed his eyes. He breathed deeply, trying to calm himself. He thought about what they said.
Before, the other fairies thought of him as incomplete, a mistake.
But now, the Ministers of Seasons were talking behind his back, like he was a freak.
He shuddered at the thought of what they said.
His connection to the Tree put it at a great risk?
He and Queen Clarion can hear the voice of the Tree?
The Tree gave part of its own life to him?
"Who am I?" he said to himself. "What am I?" He began to sniffle tears forming in his eyes. He closed them, trying to prevent them from leaving his eyes.
"Hold those tears, young one." David stopped crying, and opened his eyes.
"Who said that?"
"Place your hand in the Pixie Dust, and all of your questions will be answered." David looked at the pool, expecting to see a face somewhere. He moved his hand forward reluctantly, and then plunged it into the pool. The scenery around him changed almost instantly.
The Tree was replaced with golden walls and floors. The leaves turned into large orbs of light. David turned and looked at everything around him. "Hang on, I remember this place."
"You should, this is where We first contacted you." David whipped around, seeing only more orbs of light and golden walls.
"Who said that? Who are you?"
"We believe the question is, who are you?" David turned again, still seeing no one in sight.
"My name is David."
"But who are you? What is your purpose?"
David continued to look for the unknown entity, but said, "I don't know." He sat down on the golden floor. "When I first came to Pixie Hollow, the others treated me like I was some kind of mistake. Then, the Ministers of Seasons talk behind my back like I'm a freak." He sighed, closing his eyes. "Maybe I am a freak." He felt something on his shoulder, like a hand. He didn't bother to look up, thinking he would see nothing again.
"We can assure you young one, that your connection to us is not a mistake." David opened his eyes and looked up. He saw the form of a sparrow man, dressed in clothes like his and Queen Clarion's. His skin was a more golden color, and his eyes were two orbs of light, like what were floating around him.
"Who are you?"
"We are the voice of what you call 'the Pixie Dust Tree'. We are made up of fairies and sparrow men, just like you. Those who had been treated differently and earned their talents through pain and loss." The form shifted several times, each showing a fairy or sparrow man. They all had clothing like his and Queen Clarion's, clothes of varying styles made with a golden material. "We are no different from you, you see. We all faced a sacrifice that allowed us to finally find our true talents."
"But what does this have to do with me?"
The figure stepped back and said, "That is for you to discover yourself. Goodbye, young one. May you find what you seek, and more. We shall speak again." David felt a tug in his chest. The Orbs of light began to glow brighter, until the figure and the walls disappeared, leaving only bright light.
Then, everything went dark.
Okay, sorry for the late update. I intended to update before 7:20 where I am, but I had some technical difficulties and they didn't stop until about half an hour ago. Anyways, the voice is revealed to be sparrow men and fairies like David from the past. Next chapter should focus on Queen Clarion and Milori. R&R, PM, and...
