The Abandoned Faerie

by jasmine611

A few years ago on a warm pleasant day there lived a baby faerie. Her mother faerie had gone off to get a few things for her newborn Air Faerie daughter. This Air Faerie was even more beautiful than the Uber Air Faerie herself! Her mother named her Starlight. Starlight had blonde hair, big blue eyes, and luscious red lips. Her wings were blue and silver and her gorgeous gown was also blue and silver. Her hair was in a complicated hairstyle and to make it perfect, she had a silver crown.

I saw her sitting on a branch of a tree. I looked at her and saw in a second that she seemed very sad. I knew if she was sad I should not make her more sad by catching her in her depressed state. I looked at her for a little bit and then approached her slowly. She turned her beautiful head and she lit up with joy.

After a few seconds she squealed,"Mommy, I missed you so much! Why were you gone so long?"

Let's hold it for a second, I thought. Did she just call me mommy? I asked myself and came to the conclusion that she had called me mommy. I explained to her that I was not her mommy with delicate words. She then frowned and burst into tears. When I saw how sad she was I told her soothingly, "If you want I will be your mommy. However, once we do find your mum I will give you back to her."

The little faerie agreed. I thought this was very reasonable, especially because she was very sad. I knew she was special. There was something about her, something strange. I decided not to worry about it. We looked for Starlight's mother everywhere, but could not find her. We soon got to stop searching for her mom.

Starlight grew in esteem and was well liked by everyone. She did well at school and loved going there very much. I knew now that Starlight was my life, my joy, and my pride. As she grew she grew more beautiful. That I thought was strange, faeries don't grow more beautiful. I decided to ask Starlight because she knew herself better than anyone. She did not know why this was and also thought that this was strange. We decided to take a trip to the Faerie Queen.

After a few months ( it took a long time to get there ) we got to the Queen's palace. We came in and took no notice of the guards. We stood in front of her and Starlight asked, "Why do I grow more beautiful. I am glad, but this is quite peculiar."

The Faerie Queen answered, "You grow more beautiful because I blessed you. You are my child."

"Excuse me?" Starlight said, puzzled.

"I am your mother. The reason you are an Air Faerie because I cannot have you mixed like me. That matter is out of my power," the Queen replied. "I could not find you when I left you. Will you stay with me?"

Starlight looked at me and I nodded my head. She gave me a hug and a kiss and whispered, "I will visit you often, mommy." I let a tear roll down my cheek. My Starlight was gone. I would miss her dearly.

Once I was home I started to cry. A week later Starlight came to visit me. We had a wonderful time. In the end Starlight fulfilled her promise.

THE END
