Love is great, Love is life, Love MAKES life (ha ha ha), etc. - This is
sorta stupid. Please don't criticize it. Going kou-kou… :P
Only Time Can Tell
By: Spirit_Saviour
The night had passed.
Panic and terror filled Lilica's stomach, and she choked back the sobs that were threatening to rise from her throat. Another rapid blast of chilly air brought her uncontrollably farther across the thirtieth mountain she had passed on that horrendous day. Lilica couldn't land safely to the ground without breaking something, because one of her wings had broken and would take weeks to heal.
~~ In case you didn't know, Drakkar and Lilica's wings were joined/linked to their backs and became part of them by "fairy magic" which could only be obtained by…let's just say…someone special ~~
Shadowed green eyes were shut tight in apprehension. Why wouldn't the wind die down? Her question was answered when yet an even stronger gust of air caused her to rise and dash across the sky, passing a mass of three more mountains altogether.
She was very VERY far away from her loving family. How as Drakkar? Was he worried, out looking for her when he realized that she was gone? It would take months to get back home at the rate she was going, and even more months to find the location of where the fairy folk were staying.
Hopelessness filled her broken spirit and the air nipped at warm, newly shed tears.
"Drakkar…"
Exhaustion and drowsiness made her vision blur. Darkness surrounded Lilica as her body became limp.
She had passed out.
*************
Green, black, and purple bruises covered her body. Lilica's sore eyes slowly opened, and squinted as the mornings' sun greeted the land with gusto. Something hard and bumpy lay beneath her, and softly moaning, looked down – she had been sleeping on a tree branch.
Hastily scuttling away from its edge, Lilica looked around herself. Shadows created by the tree's leaves made the scenery murky, but a few beams of light invaded the uncovered gaps. The air – she shuttered – was surprisingly crisp and refreshing. Dewdrops sparked in the sunlight and suddenly remembering her thirst, drank her fill from the bubbles of water.
Where was she?
The question struck her mind like a bolt of lightening, and tears prickled at the edge of her eyes. What was she to do? What about Drakkar…?
Cheerlessly slumping to the ground (tree bark), Lilica felt her battered wings. They weren't going to do her any good, and she desperately needed to find food.
Not having much with her except for the article of clothing she was wearing, silk slippers, and a beautiful necklace Drakkar had given her two weeks ago, the girl took a deep breath. Sighing, she cheered herself up (at least a little bit) when she softly hummed a simple song authored by her mother. The sweet melody floated down towards the ground, catching the attention of a startled squirrel.
Lilica couldn't get off the tree at her miniature height, but if she were bigger…she just MIGHT make it to the grassy floor safely.
Closing dazed green eyes, Lilica tugged at the part of her soul which would turn her human. Blinding love shimmered around her body as she thought about Drakkar's mischievous smile, glittering eyes, comforting presence…
Feeling herself grow, Lilica opened her eyes. The items she had worn had also expanded with her – including the special necklace. A dreadful crack emitted from bellow, and she clumsily tumbled onto the velvety floor.
Muscles ached in protest to the sudden movement and her joints felt like they were on fire. Disturbed birds flew to the sky, and the curious squirrel scampered away in fright.
Lilica groaned and cried out when a sharp jolt of pain shot out from her ankle, which had broken in the fall. Her pitiful wings were gone, after going through the transformation, and she would be turning thirteen this day. Crawling towards the nearest tree, Lilica senselessly cried herself to sleep.
Authors Notes: I just wanted to tell you, reader, that Lilica and Drakkar are NOT married, but bonded together with only their love for each other- as corny as this may seem. Elaborating is hard, articulating is hard, improving my writing is hard- but I'm trying. That's why this chapter may be a little bit more detailed then the other first two (like a black dot on white paper). Thank you for reading. It's 1:04 AM and I'm not even tired! *YAWN*
