Leap to Fly-
Puck:
My eyes reread over the note once more, trying to make sense of the words. Though, as many times as I have read it, I couldn't understand what it really meant. It clearly said that Trinity was leaving, but why? What had happened was an accident.
"My King, what do we do?" I ask looking up at him.
Oberon stroked his chin, stuck in his deep thoughts. I woke up this morning with a note in my hand. It was from Trinity saying that she was leaving...on her own...with no protection what so ever.
"You need to go after her, Robin. At the moment, Trinity is as vulnerable as ever. She is scared and doesn't understand the trouble that she can get into."
All sorts of thoughts whirled around my head. All sorts of images popped up here and there. Trinity laying in a pool of her blood with Ogres standing over her. Her body tumbling throughout the river with nymphs giggling. I shook my head, jerking back. The sooner I leave, the better.

"Are you really leaving me?" Meghan stood by the door, pouting. Her arms were childishly crossed over her chest. I paused breifly to roll my eyes before shoving more clothes into my bag.
"You have Ash, remember?" I quietly snap at her. It was annoying. For the past few hours she has been asking the same damn question. All she has done is pout around as though I were her husband going on a long business trip. "I have nothing to leave."
"Ouch." Her bottom lip jutted out further.
I brushed past her, heading to the kitchen quarters. The sound of Meghan's shoes tapping against the marble floor was the only noise to be heard. Frankly, it irritated me. She turned me down months ago and now that there's another girl around she gets territorial. Pfft. Girls.
"Please think this through, Puck. You're basically going after a lost cause." Meghan examined her nails. "You don't know where she is, she doesn't know where she is. It seems all too...troublesome to put yourself through."
I turned to her in shock. "Well it isn't like I asked you to join me, so do us all a favor and shut up."
I didn't have to look to know that Meghan was throwing imaginarey knives at my back. I was too afraid to care. I just focused on shoving as much food and water as I can into the stupid bag.
Meghan and Ash waited by the front gates as I led Altivo, a large caramel horse, toward it. Ash's arm was being clung to by an annoyed looking Meghan. Neither of them said anything when I walked past.
"Come back in one piece, Goodfellow." Oberon said, a hint of sarcasm in his voice. "Please bring both of you back in one piece."
I kicked Altivo into full gear, and we were off. Trees whipped by in blurs, as did other animals, rivers, and nymphs. There was no sign of Trinity disturbing the area. I asked the creatures that I passed and they only pointed me in circles. Frustrating stupid circles. They didn't even step out to an oval.
Trinity:
Apparently, in Faeryland, up is down and left is right. Though, when you followed it that way, you only got lost. Which is exactly what I am. Lost. I flipped the map back over with a sigh. There were a lot of rivers and trees that looked the same. I yanked my hair with frustration.
"Don't do that, beautiful, most girls would kill for those locks." A silky voice drawled, amused. I slowly turned toward the voice, fear sending icy pricks all over my body. A guy, more or less older than me, stood there staring at me with steel blue eyes. We locked eyes, and his eyes brows shot up. "You are quite the looker."
I bite my lip with a blush. "Thank you..."
"I'm Edon Lahar." Edon tilted his head forward so that his blond locks fell over his forehead. "And you are?"
"Trinity James." A spark of interest lit up Edon's eyes.
"So you're the girl that the trees have been whispering about. You have been searching for your father."
I shrugged one shoulder. I wasn't about to go into details with someone I didn't know. No matter how nice they seem.
"I have heard about your great powers. Everyone is talking about with the correct amount of training, you could do great things." Edon's eyes gleamed bright as his tongue swept over his lips. I took a step back. "It's unfortunate though. To waste such a pretty face."
His full lips pulled into a pout and I jerked back with a screech. His transformed into what looked like a witch's. His skin cracked apart like broken glass and ice began clinging to strands of his hair.
"With that kind of power, I could take over the realm." His voice was rough. It sent unpleasent shivers up my spine. "Don't worry, princess. This will only hurt...a lot."
Edon lunged at me; I quickly dove out of his way. My feet kicked into high gear and I began speeding through the forest. His crazed laugh followed me the entire way. A blast of blue sparks whizzed past my face, I ducked with a scream. I pushed my feet harder. Something crackled underneath my skin, just like the night I attacked Meghan. I paused, the power flowing throughout my body. Edon grinned at me. His once beautiful face screwed into a pinch. The power surged through my bones.
We raised our hands towards each other. Yellow light with blue tipped edges swarmed around my hand while a sparkly blue swarmed his. We stared at each other. He tossed his hand back then forward and his power shot out at me. My eyes widened and I threw mine back. His skimmed my side just as mine hit him in the chest. My body flew to the side. I tumbled down the hill. Fallen branches and twigs stabbed me on the way down. The sky above me blurred in and out. Stars danced across my vision. I faded in and out until out finally won over.
It's short but I'm crammed with tests this weekend. I got a tumblr so you guys should follow me :) PM me if you want my user! Review?
