A Fairy's Tale

Chapter 4: A Plan is Made

Navi had been at the Fairies Fountain for the last three months. Things had been getting slowly worse around the fountain. Fairies were starting to get sick and were no longer in a mentally healthy condition, and this was all her fault. She felt bad, but she couldn't fall out of love with Link.

The Great Fairy had sent Link a new guardian fairy, Pixon. Navi was relieved that it was a male fairy. She figured if it was female she would be in the mental institution right about now. Either way, she didn't want another fairy watching over her Link. Besides, Pixon couldn't possibly be doing a great job because of the overall depressed state everyone was in.

"Navi, the Great Fairy wishes to speak to you," Sonya said from the other side of the door. "I'll be right threre," Navi responded.

Navi entered the Great Fairy's chambers for the first time in three months. She was once again in her little oasis in the middle of the room.

"Navi, the Goddess Farore has been reached and we will be expecting her sometime at the end of the week. I have sought her council and opinion in the matter, for I do not know what to do. I can only pray that she can help us come up with a solution for our problem before it is too late. The fairy's light is already fading, for my skin in no longer glowing with the joys of our people. If this downfall continues I will surly pass on, taking the others with me. I am becoming weaker by the day."

Navi wanted to put a bag over herself, she felt so guilty. But how could she control this emotion, was it possible?

"What do you require of me?" Navi asked in a soft tone.

"Come back here at noon on Sunday, this way I will have a chance to talk to Farore."

"Yes, your majesty," Navi said reverently and exited the room.

OoOoO

Sunday approached more quickly than had hoped our little fairy. It was coming closer and closer to the hour in which she was to speak to the Great Fairy and the Goddess Farore. She was shaking in her boots.

I honestly didn't mean to cause all this trouble. If the entire fairy race goes extinct it shall be known that I, Navi, had single handedly destroyed them. All because of this stupid emotion – love – I wish that I had never fallen in love with Link. For now, no matter how hard I try, I do not think it is possible for me to truly stop loving him. What am I to do? I wonder how Link-

Her thoughts were cut short by a light tapping on the door. "Navi, it is noon. The Great Fairy and the Goddess Farore await your appearance."

It was Sonya, Navi didn't have to think twice about it. For Sonya was the only fairy Navi had seen besides the Great Fairy these past months. "Let them know I'm on my way," Navi informed her as she slowly paced the room. "Just get it over with," she told herself out loud.

She hesitantly exited her room and made her journey to the Great Fairy's chambers, unfortunately for Navi it was next door. She entered the room and found the Great Fairy in her oasis, once again, with the Goddess Farore standing next to her.

"Navi, the Goddess Farore and I have formulated a plan and if it is successful the fairies can be saved," the Great Fairy said, but her smile slowly faded. "But, we are not sure that it will be successful. We tried to come up with different solutions, but all has failed."

"Navi, the gods have heard your silent prayers and I have come to help you," Farore said.

"I don't understand. Is this plan to help me or save the fairy race?" Navi asked.

"Both," Farore replied, "If it works."

"Try me," Navi said with an ever-so-determined tone of voice.

"We figured that if we could transform you into a human being that you could have a chance to straighten out your emotions," the Great Fairy said.

"What she means is that if you are human, Link could love you back in the way that you would want him to. Therefore, causing your emotion of depression to turn into one of happiness and joy, and the fairy race would be saved," Farore said as Navi smiled.

But her smile quickly faded.

"But what if Link doesn't love me back?" She asked on the brink of tears.

"That is what we are afraid of. So therefore, dear Navi, you must try your very best to have him return his love for you," Farore said, "This is a great risk because of many things. One is that we can only hold the transformation for two months, and even that is pushing it. The fairies could be in a state so damaged that it would be too late to save them. Even in two months. Another is that if he doesn't respond in the way you are hoping him to your emotions will only get worse. And lastly, if he does fall in love with you your human being state will become permanent…" Farore trailed off.

So it's either Link doesn't love me and I die with the rest of the fairy race, or Link loves me and I have to remain a human forever. I love Link, but everything I live for is in this fountain. But if I don't do it, the fairies will surly die, including myself. Navi thought.

This was going to be hard to deal with; so much was being put on the line.

"Will you be involved with our attempt to save the fairies, or won't you?" Farore asked sternly.

"I will," Navi said as a tear trickled down her fairy form.

"Very well, tomorrow you shall come back here and we will turn you human," Farore said.

Navi turned to leave but was delayed, "Navi one last thing," Farore said, "When we turn you human not all of your fairy traits will be gone, yet. We will be assigning you back to Link's guardian fairy. You will still have your wings and fairy powers, but you will have a human body. If Link falls in love with you after the two months are up, then the human being form will completely take over the fairy form. If that happens you will not be allowed to return, you will have to leave everything you've grown up around. Do you think you can still handle this?"

Navi nodded and exited the chambers. When she got back to her room she sobbed silently until she fell asleep.
