I don't own anything.
Briar landed on the roof of the pavilion and jumped of doing a cartwheel in the air her fists were shaking. She went to her bunk and grabbed her sword.
Briar trained for 1hour and 45 minutes. It wasn't actually train it was more like swing her sword like a baseball bat and trying to make it fall, it basically was the metaphor of her life. Trying to making her fall.
" Max I think it's time to go get Briar." Sabrina said. Max was too embarrassed to say anything so he went to get Briar. Max had no idea where to find her until he heard a huge tree fall and clump of birds fly though the sky. Hey fallowed the sound and saw Briar holding a sword and breathing hard. She obviously didn't see Max. Max cleared his throat, Briar whirled around. She made a sound of disgust in her throat.
"What do you want?" She snarled her eyes looked wild looked like a cornered animal. Max hated himself at that moment for making her like this absolute self-loathing.
"Listen, Briar I'm sorry." Max said.
"Briar I'm sorry." Briar mimicked.
"I really am."
"I really am."
"Stop acting immature."
"My father is the king of immature you dolt I can be as immature as I want, I am the princess of faery, the trickster queen!" Briar howled coldly.
"Wow I hurt you that bad!"
"Yes, your face truly is hurtful."
"Oh yeah, miss trickster whens the last pulled I trick."
"Oh awhile but if you want I'll start again!"
"You couldn't prank rock!" Max yelled. Briar grinned micheivously and flew away.
…
Briar was going to fly straight to her bunk but Daphne stuck her head out of the pavilion and yelled to her to come in. When Briar walked in every one started to sing happy birthday.
"It's my birthday!" Briar cheered and spun around. Her previous rage was forgotten and replaced with joy. She found her brother and hugged him tightly.
"I lo-oo-ve you!" she giggled no would ever guess a few minutes before she had been so angry. Sammy grinned at his sister's joy.
"I love you too." Sammy said. Briar hugged him again and went to her party.
…
Briar tapped Puck on his shoulder. He whirled around and grinned.
"Happy birthday!" he exclaimed.
"Yeah just think about it eleven years into the future I was born and before that you and Sabrina-"
"Stop! I think I'm going to ralph."
"Well okay I have come to enlist your help in pranking Max." Puck's eyes danced and he nodded.
…
Max woke up in so much goo all he could see was green. He could smell rancid meat and eggs. It was in his hair, it was every were but his face. There was a post it on his for head it read.
With love Briar & Puck
"BRIAR!" he yelled jumping up from the goo. He walked out of his fort dripping in goo. Not one even looked twice they all knew two tricksters was enough for the whole world much less five acres. Max trudged up to the showers and attempted to get the goo off. He succeeded but his hair stood up straight. When he left the showers an announcement came on.
"Training is today in the woods."
…
When Max got to the woods almost everyone was there. Puck and Briar burst into laughter until they were rolling on the ground.
"I like your hair." Briar wheezed. This caused them fresh wave giggles. When Briar got up she straitened herself but was still smiling.
"Okay guys, you see this hat," Briar said gesturing to the top hat next to her. "Pull a name out the hat and that is your partner." Sabrina was first she stuck her hand in and pulled out a scrap of paper, she cringed.
"Puck." She said disdainfully. There was a groan and Puck came up. Briar reached into a barrel and pulled out some handcuffs. She cuffed them together.
"We are playing capture the flag you're red team. This will build team skills and if we are to be attacked this will be your buddy. You will find them and will fight together. If I find you incompatible to fight together then you will be switched." Briar announced. Puck made a sound that could only be described as a whine. Daphne came up next and pulled a name out.
"Billy Charming." She announced. Next came Red.
"Baba Yaga." She gulped. And so the choosing went on with only a few switches. Until Briar she pulled out a name.
"Max."
