Ayyy! Olivia here! I'm guessing a lot of you are wondering how Sabrina and Bradley (almost) get married without this being AU, considering that he's a fairy, and the part in the epilogue about his family screaming at the sight of Puck, and thinking that he was an angel wouldn't make sense. Well, no need to fret, because I have an idea on how this connects to the epilogue without being AU...okay, well maybe some of the dialogue will be different when it comes to the marriage part from the epilogue, but that's pretty much it. Thanks!
*Puck's POV*
Sabrina was working away at the ropes that held her hostage with her pocketknife, while Bradley was untying mine.
"No funny business, Robin," Bradley grunted in my ear, so that Sabrina couldn't here him. "Or else, I'll kill her right in front of you. I will. You know I will. Then I'll kill you too. Slowly." I gulped, and tried not to show my fear as Bradley loosened the last knot and freed me. I nearly fell over, due to sudden shock waves that nearly tore the room apart. The ceiling started to fall down around us, and Bradley swore not-so-discreetly. Not that I cared. I only cared to save Sabrina and get out of here.
I looked over at her. I was terrified to see that she was still sawing at the last piece of rope around her waist. She turned to me with a panicked look on her face. Before Bradley could grab Sabrina and tie her back up, the whole room came crashing down, leaving us standing in the rubble of the small prison, which turned out to be on a remote mountain of some sort, overlooking a lush, green valley. The view was great, but it was something I couldn't think about now, since Sabrina was still half-tied to a lone post, which was the only thing that survived the explosions. I looked around. What...or who...caused those?
While gazing at Sabrina, I saw that Bradley was making his way over to her, furious, through the pile of broken stone and wood that stood between them. Streaks of dirt streaked his face and his hair stood up and crazy angles, making him look even more deranged than he already was. I pulled out my wings with much effort and pain due to my broken ribs, and flew towards Bradley, prepared to knock him to the ground and pound him into the dust before he could lay a hand on Sabrina. When we got home...if we go home... I will make it up to Sabrina, or at least try to. I'm pretty sure that these types of things (cheating; being kidnapped by a deranged fairy; almost being raped by the same fairy) aren't forgiven well. I could tell Sabrina still loved me though, which just showed how lucky I was to even have her in the first place.
Alas, whatever must have cause the room to crumbled darted in front of me, knocked me off my balance, and slammed into Sabrina's would-be attacker, beating me to him. Bradley was sent flying into a tree. He slumped to the mossy ground, dazed but not out cold. That should hold him off for a while. I rushed over to Sabrina, feeling terrible that I was not the one to rescue her, that...who even was that, anyways? A fairy with short, blond hair and pink wings similar to my own fluttered lightly towards me, with a concerned look on his face.
"Brother, are you alright? Is Sabrina alright? What happened?! How did you two end up in Bradley's clutches? Why, that scoundrel..." It was funny how Mustardseed was talking in Faerie's old-fashioned way of speaking. Back at the beach, he spoke in a more modern, American style. He switched back and forth with his emotions. I shook my head, signaling that now was not the time to talk about how this happened. Now was the time to make sure Sabrina was okay. I bent down, and picked her off of the floor, bridal style. Even though she was still obviously hurt from the stab wound in her leg, she protested and said she could walk. She always had hated when I picked her up. She said it made her feel helpless, which she was not. Sabrina took great pride in not being some wimpy little girl who relied on men for help all the time.
To my further surprise, Marshmallow stepped out from behind a tree, about twenty yards away, and ran over to Mustardseed.
"The explosion wand worked! I should've picked up more while we were in Peru!" she exclaimed, proud of her work. Her face fell when she saw Sabrina, clutching her leg in pain, laying in my arms.
"Sabrina! Are you okay?! Where does it hurt? I'll fix it! I've got some low-magic healing salve in here somewhere..." she dug through one of her many pockets on her trench coat that was similar to Jake's, only bright orange, and pulled out a small, blue jar.
"Aha! This won't effect your magic addiction at all! The joys of low-magic!" Marshmallow hurridley opened the jar, spread some yellow ointment from it on to the palm off her hand, and simply waved her arm over Sabrina's whole body as I held her tightly, instead of actually rubbing the salve onto her wound.
Slowly, Marshmallow peeled back the makeshift bandage (which was just gauze with duct tape) that had been wrapped around Sabrina's thigh, and revealed unmarked skin. The only damage left from Bradley's knife was a tear in her jeans.
"Thanks, Daphne. That feels much better. And thank you Mustardseed, for saving Puck and me. Now let's get outta here, please! We'll tell you everything later!"
Then Sabrina fell out of my arms, unconcious. I reached for her, but she was already facedown on the floor with what looked like a tranquilizer dart.
We all whirled around to see Bradley, up and well, with a shotgun in hand. "Touch her, and the next one's gonna be a slug, not a dart." He aimed the gun at me, but I didn't back down.
"Daphne! Teleport back to the bottom of the mountain where we left the car!" Mustardseed screamed as he darted to step in front of her. She nodded, afraid, and she pressed down the glowing, purple jewel on one of the many rings she wore. A puff of smoke swallowed her up and she was gone. Mustardseed rushed at Bradley, who had his gun now trained on my brother's chest.
"Mustardseed, no!" I couldn't bear the thought of my brother dying. Although he was a pain in the butt, he was still my brother and I loved him.
At the last second before I thought Bradley was gonna pull the trigger, Mustardseed's left arm turned into that of a gorilla's, and with a quick snatch, Bradley's gun was pulled from his hands and bent and broken beyond repare. It was tossed aside, and Mustardseed slammed his gorilla-fist into the evil fairy's face, sending him back several feet, and to the ground. But, he got right back up, unfolded his wings and flew at my brother. I couldn't just let Mustardseed do this all by himself, so I leaned down, planted a kiss on the sleeping Sabrina's forehead, and joined the fight.
I sprang into action quickly, and flew alongside Mustardseed, until a violent collision was made. The fight was two against one, so I was positive that we would win, wake up Sabrina, recieve very necessary medical attention, and go home. Boy, was I wrong. Bradley was obviously no ordinary fairy. He must have had some sort of altercation done by magic to enhance his physical strength, speed, and endurance. All I remember was blood, lots of blood, and then Mustardseed dragging me away, until I blacked out.
