fairy wing

"Prince?" I inquired curiously, glancing at the mysterious boy beside me.

But before I could get another word out, the boy grasped my arm and quickly led me away from the approaching people.

"This way!" he urged, pulling me away from the crowd.

I followed him without hesitation

"What do they mean by prince?" I asked curiously, as the boy continued to walk ahead of me, pulling me along with his hands.

"My name is Earl, just Earl," the boy introduced himself, smiling.

“Shall we walk around? “He asked, I nodded, absorbing his words and contemplating my surroundings.

"That sounds good," I responded,

As we entered the quaint town, I couldn't help but be fascinated by the renaissance-era atmosphere. The cobbled streets and antique buildings had a rustic charm, and the inhabitants seemed to move about gently, as if they were in another time.

It felt like I had traveled back in time to a more peaceful, slower time, and I was mesmerized by the tranquility of the town.

Earl led me around the quaint streets, introducing me to the various shops and landmarks

Except. The lake

"So... how did you find me in the lake?" I asked Earl with genuine curiosity. It was a mystery how he had known where and when to find me, and I wanted to hear the story from his perspective. There might be a clue how to get back from my world

“I jump into the water…and found you…sinking at the bottom”

Sinking?..

"youre soaking wet..." Earl said, gesturing towards my clothes. 

"so are you"

"I think we should change. Here, let's go to a shop. and dragged me inside the shop, Earl perused the shelves, selecting various fabrics and styles.

"Try these on," he said, holding up a few elegant and beautifully designed dresses.

The dress that Earl held up was nothing like I had ever worn before.my simple black uniform turns into a luxurious, expensive-looking affair. It had a high neckline and long sleeves, with a full skirt that swept across the floor. The fabric was a beautiful, ornate lace embellished with beads and ribbon.

He traded in his beautiful white suit for a dashing long frock coat and bow tie. The outfit was sleek and sophisticated, and he looked like a gentleman from another era.

"Let's head out!" he said as he took my school uniform with him

As I followed him, I couldn't help but feel a sense of awe and fascination as we entered the town. The buildings were picturesque, with cobblestone streets and quaint storefronts lining the streets. It was as if I had been transported back in time to the Renaissance but still far too different

"What a charming town," I remarked, looking around at the serene and picturesque setting. "I feel like I've traveled back in time to the Renaissance."

Renaissance?”

"You must be hungry from all that walking,” Earl, said to me. "Would you like to go to a restaurant? I know a great place near here."

"thanks!” I responded.

As we made our way through the bustling town, Earl led me to a quaint, cozy restaurant. Upon entering, I was greeted warmly by the staff and offered a treat of soup warm bread and butter..

"So... how's the soup?" Earl asked playfully, watching me eat. He rested his arm on the table and continued watching me, a slight smile on his face.

"It's delicious,"

Earl continued to watch me eat in silence, his gaze fixed on my movements as I enjoyed the meal. It was a relaxing and comfortable moment, and I was grateful for his quiet, companionable presence.

As we sat in the restaurant, enjoying our meal, a loud noise came from outside.

"What's that?" Earl asked, looking up from his food and towards the door.

We couldn't make out what the sound was at first, but soon, people started gathering outside, looking towards the source of the noise.

I got up from my seat, taking a piece of bread with me, and followed Earl who was also drawn towards the crowd. As we made our way outside, and blended in with the crowd, I began to hear what the commotion was about.

As I pushed my way through the crowd, trying to get a better glimpse of what the commotion was about, I overheard a heated exchange between a middle-aged man and ....

a fairy?

"Take that, you piece of crap!" the man said angrily, stepping on what appeared to be a small fairy.

"Excuse me, what's going on?" I couldn't help but ask, shocked by the situation unfolding in front of me and not sure how to react.

As I looked more closely at the fairy, I noticed that she was dressed in a colorful but simple outfit, typical of fairy kind.

"What was that?!" I exclaimed, shocked at what I had just witnessed.

An old man standing nearby replied, "That was a labor fairy who serves that fairy hunter."

"You thief!" the hunter shouted, crushing the delicate wing with his hand.

As I processed what he had said, I watched with horror as the fairy hunter captured the fairy and stole one of its wings.

As the fairy cried, I could only watch silently, feeling utterly powerless to help.

"How horrible," I said with shock, as the fairy continued to cry and the hunter continued to abuse it.

"A fairy's wing is her life," the man standing beside me said. "Then why won't anyone save her?" I asked, feeling a sense of desperation and sadness for the little creature.

"Well," the old man replied. "Shes a fairy. No one will risk their life for a fairy's."

I was horrified at what I was hearing. “Why the fairy’s life was valued so little? The fairy was still weeping and pleading for help, but no one seemed to care. “I said

The old man nodded solemnly. "I know," he said, "but it's too dangerous and besides…it’s completely legal”

“Legal? They call this thing legal?” I walked closer to the hunter, who had the fairy trapped in his hands tightly.

"I'll do anything to have my wing back! I’ll take back what’s mine

"Then I'll just kill you right here," the hunter replied, squeezing the fairy even more tightly in his hands.

I felt a sense of urgency wash over me. I knew I had to act quickly before it was too late.

Without thinking, I unleashed a mighty kick and knocked the hunter off his feet. As he hit the ground, the fairy was freed and flew up into the air.

I caught the fairy in mid-air, along with its tiny, delicate wing. As I handed it over to the fairy,

As the fairy took back its wing, it jump off my hand

"Wait! “I called out to it

The fairy turned to face me and glared at me angrily. "Why should I wait?" the fairy spat, running away. "As if I would ever thank a human for anything! Humans have caused nothing but misery for my kind. Disgusting humans"

With those words, the fairy turned and run off never looking back. I was left standing alone, feeling powerless and small in front of the fairy's anger and hatred towards humans.

Earl stepped up and stood in front of me. Before I knew it, we could hear the sound of horse galloping and the knights were approaching.

“They found us “he whispered

"earl?...."
