320 years later.
Valerie rubbed her eyes, as she stirred into consciousness. She never really slept now, but she rested often, and usually lost track of time. She lifted herself off of her bed and stood up, stretching her arms out wide. She blinked various times before her eyes adjusted to the lack of light in her room. She looked around the small, half-empty room that had nothing more than a bed, a table, a mirror, a wardrobe and her bow and arrows. She kept them close at all times, for they were the only thing she had of her old life, apart from her memories. She raised her hand and touched her sparkling teeth, remembering her old friend she hadn't seen in a while.
'Your teeth are amazing!' Tooth would say, zipping left to right. They had met late at night, two hundred and thirty years ago, when Tooth was on a tooth collection and Valerie was wandering the streets of New York. She had the impulse to go somewhere new that night, and decided that New York was new enough. The memory ran through her head like a film, moment for moment, word for word.
'Hey, what's your name?' asked a very hyperactive Toothiana, better known as the Tooth Fairy. Valerie had been mesmerised by her beautiful feathers and her colourful body.
'Valerie Gabrielle Valentine,' Valerie replied, almost inaudible.
The tooth fairy had gasped and had a little bout of a spasm.
'Your Cupid!' squealed Tooth, making Valerie's ears ring.
'Yeah, you could call me that,' Valerie had laughed, running her fingers along the side of her slender recurve bow. As a human, she loved archery, and even now, as an immortal, it was her favourite past time.
'What's your name?' Valerie had asked, sitting down on the large window sill, six stories high. There were cars below, honking and moving, traffic being an issue at that time of night. 'Wait, don't tell me. That little kid has a tooth under his pillow, it's just fallen out, he was so excited, and you're here to come and collect it?' Valerie said, leaning on her hand that rested upon her leg.
'How did you know?!' exclaimed Tooth excitedly. Valerie kept her hand under her chin and pointed a finger at Tooths hand, where she held half a dozen teeth that hadn't been added to her bag, which was in her other hand.
'Oh,' Tooth had said, gently knocking her forehead with the heel of her hand and laughing.
