Chapter 10 - Chapter 10

The Winter Fairy

Elevina gets worried about Elena not returning back to the castle. She quickly sent for Uriel who was guarding the castle outside.

"Elevina sends for you Uriel." one of the servants said as they both escorted him to see Elevina.

"Yes Elevina? You call for me?" Uriel said as he took a bow.

"Yes I did. Have you seen Elena? It's getting quite late and I haven't seen or heard of her." Elevina said worryingly as she paced up and down.

"Relax okay. I'll go in search of her. Just calm down and I'm sure she's fine." Uriel said, trying to comfort her.

"I better start going now before it gets late." He said, giving her a bow.

"Wait, let my servant accompany you in your journey incase of any danger." Elevina said with desperation in her eyes.

"It's fine really, I'll be okay. Just take care of yourself. The heavens are with me." Uriel said as he flys out on his journey.

Elena, still searching for a way to escape, sees a hair pin and tries to use it to unlock the door. Luckily the padlock unlocks and Elena forcefully pushes the door.

Trying to escape she sees some fairies building houses and planting crops. She tried to fly but she couldn't due to how exhausted she was.

She decides to walk instead tip-toeing around the working fairies. She passes all the fairies she comes across. She sees a sleeping dog that blocked her path.

She looked for a way to cross around it but she couldn't so she decided to climb on the dog instead. Taking each step carefully, finally coming down from the dog, her pixie dust enters the dog's nose , causing him to sneeze, blowing off Elena as she lands openly on the ground.

Everyone turns around and sees the strange fairy. Mona notices Elena has escaped and quickly asks her guard to bring her back.

Elena sees a group of guards approaching her as she trailed off to escape. Running she gets caught by a rope.

"No no no! Not again! Please you have to let me go, I'm begging." Elena said as she tried to Free herself from the rope.

"That would be a shame if I let you go. I have to hand it to you, it was really clever trying to escape but I promise you, you're not going anywhere!"Moan said, telling her guards to tie her up for sacrifices.

Uriel has flown for a long time now, exhausted he decides to rest for a bit. After a few minutes he gets back on his journey. He reached a tree where he noticed some of the leaves had already fallen.

He suspects that Someone was her before. He checks below on the ground where he sees trails of pixie dust which looked exactly like Elena. Curious, he follows the trail as it leads him to an unknown cottage.

He carefully sneaks inside as he hides at the back of a toadstool scanning the area. He sees fairies flying and going on their normal activities when he hears a familiar voice.

"Isn't that Elena? That's her voice? I better go see what's happening. Hold on Elena, I am on my way." Uriel said as she sneaked to where the voice was coming from.

Arriving he hides inside a bush flower as he sees Elena tied up below a big larva pot. He tries to come closer but sees some fairies passing and immediately hides back.

"Welcome everyone! You all are about to witness a fairy sacrifice. Say your last prayers Elena." Moan said wickedly as she got a saw cutting the rope Elena is tied in.

Uriel sees Elena is in trouble as he absorbs the sunlight rays and quickly blasts off the saw Moan was using.

"Hey! Get away from here right now!" Uriel said angrily, clutching his fist together for another blast.

"Who are you supposed to be? Nevermind I can take you on myself. Guards! Seize him!" Mona said sending off her guards towards him

Uriel is able to dodge all the attacks as he gives all of them one quick blast. Meanwhile the rope Elena is tied up slowly snaps, lowering Elena closer to the pot of larvae.

"Uriel! Help me! Help me!" Elena screams trying to get herself free.

"What is it going to be? Defeat me or save her? The choice is yours to decide." Mona said laughing evilly as she watched Elena scream for help.

Uriel speedily catches Elena right before the rope snapped off completely but before he could defeat Mona she escapes.

"Thank you so much! I was thinking I would die." Elena said as she hugged him.

"Well we better start going. It's already late." Uriel said, flying off with Elena to the sky.

Arriving at the castle, Elvenia sees Elena and she is filled with so much joy and happiness seeing her friend is alive.

"Elena! Thank goodness you're okay. I thought something bad happened to you." She said, giving her a big hug.

"Am fine, all thanks to Uriel here. He saved me. I have to sleep and I am really tired." Elena said, flying off to her room to sleep.

*Meanwhile at Mephistopheles*

"Unbelievable! You fools aren't doing anything! Though you would be useful but clearly you're not." Queen Lilith said in range, crushing a skull.

"We're trying our best, your majesty. We won't fail you again." Aldmeris hesitantly bowed to the queen.

"It seems she has someone protecting her. Find out who the supernatural Is immediately!" Lilith said, sitting down on her throne.

"Yes of course my queen." Aldmeris said as he cast out a spell revealing an image of an angel named Uriel.

"Hmmm…Uriel, quite interesting. Which kingdom is the supernatural from?" Lilith said maliciously, contracting out her claws.

"His from the kingdom of Anglocnds. He resides in the sky in heaven." Aldmeris said as breaking off his spell.

"Oh I see…interesting. Keep an eye on him too, we could use him to set a trap for Elena." Lilith said, giving out a distorted laugh.

*The kingdom of Anglocnds*

Celebrations of the 30th century of their kingdom were celebrated. Angels gathered around as beautiful melodic music were played filled with autumn sun rays illuminating through a crystal ball.

The king of Anglocnds makes an announcement concerning a demonic force and sends a message to Uriel ensuring to protect Elena as much as possible even if it means sacrificing his life for her.

"May I get your attention! On this beautiful day we angels come together to celebrate our glorious descent into the heavens. Today marks our 30th century though we lost and also fought." the king said, stamping his golden staff on the ground which made a loud noise as everyone clapped and cheered.

"Unfortunately thing's are becoming chaotic for us supernatural beings. I sensed a bad surge of evil and we must be careful! They could strike at any point in time or even disguise themselves to be us." The king said in concern as he gave a sad expression.

" This is a Time of celebration! Please feel free to make yourself comfortable." The king said sitting on his throne. He calls his servant whispering in his ear, then sends him off.

*Meanwhile at Winterfell*

Elena wakes up being lost in her thoughts. wondering why such an event had to happen. Wasn't she kind enough? Or did she do something wrong to help? Then why did it happen?

She flies over to meet Elevina who was watering the garden. Hugging her she talks to her.

"Elevina, did I do something wrong? Why do I keep falling victim to problems everywhere I go?" Elena said calmly as she wiped off her tears coursing from her eyes.

"Of course not. Look Elena, you are special and unique. You just haven't discovered who you really are. I believe anything that has happened is for a reason." Elevina said calmly, wiping off Elena's tears.

"Yeah? Then why haven't I seen it? Maybe I came by mistake. I'm just keeping everyone in danger including you. Am really sorry for everything I put you through." Elena said, bursting out tears as she hugged Elevina.

"Oh sweetheart, I understand. Don't cry, I'll always stay by your side no matter what happens." Elevina said, hugging her as she kissed Elena on her hair.

After some sobbing moment Elena decides to leave and take some time alone. She hears a strange voice calling out her name. Drawing to the voice she follows it which leads her to a strange room In the Palace.

She sees all sorts of historical spell books with unidentified portions. Flying curiously she sees a huge picture covered with a red cloth.. She flies up where she could easily pull off the red cloth.

She sees the cloth had been tied at each end of the picture. She immediately loses it. Immediately the cloth fell off revealing a drawing of her mother wearing a crown, sitting on this same throne of Winterfell.

Confused and speechless she talked to herself in her thoughts.

"Is this my mom? A queen? How is that possible? How did she die? What really happened to you mother?" Elena said In speaking In her thoughts.

Elena hears Elevina calling out her name. She replies back telling her to meet her where she was.

"Elena! Goodness, I have been looking for you! What is this place? Where are we?" Elevina said in surprise as she glanced at the room.

"You're saying you haven't been into this room? I was drawn by a strange voice which led me up here." Elena said, staring at Elevina.

"Not really. My mom didn't really tell me much about this castle." Elevina said as she flew around the room.

Elena flies around the picture and sees an ancient writing close to the painting on the wall. Surprisingly she was able to read it but Elevina couldn't.

"You can actually read the writing? What does it say." Elvenia said, looking at Elena.

"Yeah I can. It says a fairy born of winter will be born on the first laugh, when it passes across a border. Then we shall all gather together to light the everlasting power of another to make her feel special like that of her mother." Elena reads, still trying to understand what the writing said.

"I still don't understand what they mean. Elevina, what do you think." Elena said, glancing at her.

"It's just saying of a fairy born in winter, which is you. That explains your extraordinary powers. I think it's linked you with your mother, that's why you were able to hear her voice and actually see her!" Elevina said happily as she gave her a hug.

"I guess that explains everything. Am just wondering why the picture was covered. My mom being a queen? I still can't fix the puzzle. Do you think they planned to get rid of me, including your mother?" Elena said in a scared tone staring directly at Elevina.

"Why would you even say that about my mother? My mom is loved and adored; she would never do any of such!" Elevina said in an upset manner.

"Am sorry Elevina for saying that. I didn't mean to. Am just really confused about what is really happening." Elena said as she gave Elevina a hug.

"It's fine, I understand. Am sure with time things will be sorted out. As for now we better head downstairs." Elevina said as she turned around to leave.

"Ok, just a minute let me cover up the picture." Elena said as she got the cloth.

Trying to cover the picture she sees her mother's lips moving as if she was trying to tell her something. Moving closer she got interrupted by Elvenia's voice making Left immediately.

"What took you time? I have been waiting." Elevina said giving Elena a dead star.

"Am sorry. Let's go shall we." Elena said as she followed Elevina.

Getting downstairs they see Uriel in a worried manner. Thru both greeted him and asked what had happened.

"Uriel! What a surprise. What are you doing here?" Elena said, coming closer to him.

"Good greeting to you both but I am afraid I have come with a bar new for you Elena." Uriel said with a trembling voice.

"What happened? Tell me!" Elena said firecedly.

"A message was passed to me from my kingdom about a demon queen who seeks to destroy you." Uriel said in a deep tone.

"Yes I know about that. It's been troubling me but with your protection and that of your kingdom I am sure everything will be okay." Elena said in a calm voice.

"You know about this? Yes I'll protect you to the very end. You have my word on it. We shall all be prepared and ready for a great war, especially you Elena." Uriel said in a serious tone glancing at her.

"Thank you both so much for all your help. As long as we have each other we would definitely defeat all the dark forces." Elena said confidently, giving out a smile.

Lilith watches and hears their conversation with her magic globe.

"Oh Elena…don't be too sure. The battle has just begun. Let's see how strong you are. Hahaha! Hahaha! Hahaha!" Lilith laughs diabolically as she feeds on a demon soul.
