Disclaimer: Hmmmm you don't pay attention do ya! Go back and read the first
disclaimer so you can see I don't own anything! Anyway thanks to
LainieG304, Jlink, and RI2 for your reviews. Yeah I know, I have the worst
grammar and spelling you don't need to tell me. *sigh* I have a grammar
obsessed twin to do that for me. Anyway onward!
JUST A FAIRY
It is night now, and I lay settled in a soft pillow (a gift from Link). I shiver, yet there is no cold. I watch Link sleep as I lay here, alone. The wind that had pulled so strongly at me is gone, and for that I am grateful. A quest for an enchanted wind is just the kind of thing Link would find interest in, and I can't put my love in danger.
Slowly I close my eyes, I pray to the Mother Fairy for a dreamless night. A night free of dreams. Of my love and, his princess.
A gust of wind wakes me late in the night. I sit up with a tiny shriek. Breathing heavily. I look to the window, the shutters are open and the wind blows into the room seeking me. I feel the cold wind wrap itself around my limbs and pull. I shriek in protest and fly to the window, with all my might I push and pull the shutters closed.
I can still hear the wind pounding at the glass. Shaking I return to my pillow, and bury my face in my knees. What is this? Why is it happening now? Finally when Link was safe why did a new mystery have to come to threaten him?
The window bursts open with surprisingly gentle force, nothing is disturbed as the wind rushes in. I shriek as it tugs at my body and pulls me clean in to the air. I Cry furiously and beat my wings endlessly trying to rid myself of invisible hands that bind me.
"LINK!"
I cry his name in vain as the wind rushes me out the window, across the fields and above the forest. The wind takes me higher and higher until I pass through the clouds. The effort of uselessly beating my wings catches up with me and I pass into darkness.

"Navi"
A deep musical voice calls my name. Slowly I open my eyes and gasp. Before me stands the Mother Fairy. She is the most beautiful woman I have ever seen. She stands taller then a human, with striking amethyst locks and matching eyes, her skin is fairer then even the Princess Zelda's.
She reaches a graceful hand out and gently strokes my cheek with a single finger.
"My little one" she says "you are troubled, please tell me why?"
I swallow the lump in my throat, and stammer to answer this woman of power.
"Because . . .because . . ." I can feel tears streaming down my cheeks, I swallow, I shall answer true, even if it means punishment.
"Because I love a man, but all he sees is a fairy! You granted me the ability of love, but where is the joy of it if I can't be loved back!"
I'm breathing heavily now and I know I'm shaking but I don't stop.
"I love him more then life itself but how can I tell him? A fairy, and a human? Has such a thing ever been heard of? This gift of love for him is not a blessing! It's a curse!"
I swallow as more tears cascade down my face.
"And I don't know how much longer I can live like this."
I dare to look up; the Mother is smiling at me! There is sadness in her eyes as she speaks.
"Love is wondrous no matter the conditions, but I cannot see you unhappy. Do you believe that if you were human you could gain this man's love?"
My heart skips a beat, "Yes! Oh yes I could! Is there a way? Can I really be human?"
"She nods, with sadness in her face. "Yes it is possible, but the price is dear."
I barley hear the words. "Tell me!" I demand, "Tell me!"
She holds up a small flask that I don't remember her holding before.
"The ancient ones created this long ago, to drink it is to change shape to anything you desire. But take heed one sip shall change you while another shall kill you. If you truly want to be human take this from my hand. But one word of warning, you shall have until the next full moon to gain his love, if not you return to your old form banished from our world and his. Now do you wish to take this water and gamble with you life?"
I barley consider her words. I could be human! I know I could gain Link's love.
"I'll take it, and thank you mother."
She smiles sadly at me one last time. She pulls the stopper from the bottle, and tilts a drop of the strange liquid out. I catch the drop in my hands.
"Be happy Navi"
I hear her words fading as I swallow the shimmering liquid.
A/N: HA, HA, HA! How's that for a cliffe! Anyway how hates exam time *looks around at audience* Well I just took mine, so death to all!!! HA, HA, HA! Anyway I gotta go I shall update soon!!! P.S. I know I suck at spelling/grammar you don't need to tell me!
