“You know sis,” said Martha, “you
really do look good as a stone statue.”
No response.
“What’s that?” asked Martha, “revert
you now? Sorry sis, no can do. Because something could always happen that will
allow you to become queen again. I can’t let that happen. But I will promise
you this. Once 24 hours are up, I’ll turn you human again and then bury you.
Doesn’t that sound like fun?”
No response.
A puff of pink smoke enters the room
and takes the form of Jessica.
“Hey Jessica,” said Martha, “who let
you out of the bottle?”
“My new master,” said Jessica.
“Your new what?” asked Martha, “wait
a minute, you’re out of the bottle and it’s not in my hand. That can only mean
one thing. Someone let you out without my permission. Who was it?”
“I do not know,” said Jessica, “I am
only here to do as my master commands.”
“And what does your master command
for you to do?” asked Martha.
“This,” said Jessica who then
proceeds to remove the fairy queen’s crown off her head and then place it on
the stone head of Mary.
Instantly, the spell Martha placed
on her sister began to reverse itself and when Mary was back to normal, she was
once again the queen of the fairies.
“Thank-you Jessica,” said Mary.
“Don’t thank me, my queen,” said
Jessica, “Thank the fairy that is my new master.”
“She won’t be your master for very
long,” said Jessica who immediately flies out of the room and returns to the
throne.
Mary and Jessica immediately follow
her and a huge fight occurs and Mary ends up with the bottle in her hands.
“Jessica, before this escalates any
further and you are forced to do something you do not want to do, I hereby
command you to be free from the bottle,” said Mary.
“Really,” said Jessica, “I’m going
to become free.”
“Yes,” said Mary, “I guess for this
to be really official I must phrase this properly. Jessica I wish you were free
from the bottle.”
In an instant pink smoke came out
of the bottle and surrounded Jessica’s
body. When it disperse only a human being remain.
“Man,” said Jessica, “it feels so
weird to be human again. I don’t know what I even going to do now.”
Mary opens a portal to the human
world.
“You are going to go through that
portal and begin living the life you should have led all those years ago when I
made you a fairy and guardian of my daughter,” said Mary.
“Thank-you,” said Jessica, “I
promise to not let you down.”
She passes through the portal and it
closes behind her.
“Now to deal with you sister,” said
Mary, who eyes the bottle.
“Uh,” said Martha, “you can’t make
me a genie. 1. You have to be a warlock and have genie making powers. 2. I have
to be a witch which I’m not. So you are going to have to do better than that.”
“Tell me dear sister,” said Mary,
“what happen to Mia?”
“I don’t know,” said Martha.
“Oh,” said Mary, “because I
distinctly remembering just minutes before I came to this realm a distinct pain
in my chest. A pain I would only have if a. a fairy becomes a witch or b. a
fairy is wrongfully stripped of her fairy form. Now which is it?”
“It was b. my queen,” said the fairy
who took control of the genie bottle.
“Oh really?” asked Mary, “Well then
I will just do to you what you did to her.”
“But fairies can’t put spells on
other fairies,” said Martha, “you made that rule yourself.”
“It’s true,” said Mary, “so I won’t
strip you of your fairy form but I can decree you banned from the fairy realm.”
She opens a portal that is much
bigger than normal.
“Once you pass through this portal,”
said Mary, “you will no longer be able to return to the fairy realm.”
“I won’t do it,” said Martha.
“You have no choice,” said Mary, “I
am the queen and I have spoken. Now pass through the portal.”
Martha despite trying to resist the
order did as her commanded and passed through the portal. Once through the
portal closed.
“Will she be back?” asked a fairy.
“No,” said Mary, “that portal was
created by a former queen for the purpose of expelling bad fairies from this
realm. It takes away their ability to create portals between realms thus she
won’t ever be able to come back to this realm again.”
“Can she sneak through one?” asked
the fairy.
“No,” said Mary, “the portals to any
realm are equip with alarms. If she does try to sneak into one they will go off
and I will immediately be alerted about them.”
“Where did that portal lead to?”
asked the fairy.
“Considering the last known location
she went to was the vampire cave,” said Mary, “I believe she went there.”
“That’s where she sent Mia after
stripping her of her fairy form,” said the fairy.
“Oh that poor girl,” said Mary.
“Wait,” said the fairy, “how do you
know for sure she went there? You didn’t send Jessica there did you?”
“No,” said Mary, “I summon this
portal to tune to her last location outside this realm and that was the vampire
cave.”
