Another World

Tricks

I hoped the pixies would help just like the mermaids and elves decided to. I hoped the hatred of the fae would help our cause just like it did for the elves.

It would be amazing if that was the case.

"I've been waiting for this day," said the man as he began to laugh

I stood there in confusion. I thought he was a stone-faced man with no emotions but according to this he wasn't but that wasn't even the most confusing part. The most confusing part was definitely his words. I had no idea what he meant by that.

Would he allow the elves to fight or not

His statement had been so confusing it could go both ways at least that's how I felt.

I didn't want to interrupt him but I had grown tired of listening to him laugh "excuse me sir what do you mean by that?"

"Sorry sorry" said that man as he tried to stop laughing it seemed like that had been impossible for him " I've been waiting for another war against the Fae"

A weight began to lift off my shoulder as the man said this. I thought things would go ten times worse but it seemed like he held a huge grudge against the fae.

"let me explain why" his face changed as he looked at me closer I began to worry about what he had seen. I didn't have anything to hide but the way he was looking at me almost made me feel like I did " you are partially fae? Is this a trap?"

The man's face became angry. I instantly began to worry again. How would I explain I decided to follow a cute boy to the human world to find my old best friend who now hates me and somehow managed to make all the Fae hate me?

So I decided the best choice was to say that exact thing and hope he'll understand.

"ohh that seems Fae like" said the man as he calmed down and the red in his face slowly drained away.

"tell me about it" I said as I brushed my hands through my hair and let my shoulders fall.

"ok ok back to my story" said the man "well in our last war the elves worked very closely with the elves we weren't the only ones by the way but in the end we won and we got to control exactly how we'll live amongst each other let's just say that they were very greedy but we decided to continue working with them that was until they began blaming our people for crimes and doing the worst things to them"

"wow" Elora whispered from behind me

"so we stopped working with the elves began getting very aggressive we became fighters that's why we are who we are today but that's not the reason I want to fight against them the reason is because of our aggressiveness my daughter left and I haven't seen her since because of them"

"Im so-"

"thats why I'll fight"

"i got this" Tillia said as threw her hair in a ponytail and started to loosen up

Tillia decided she would take over this one. She had known the pixie leader very well in fact they had previously worked together. More specifically they worked together in looking for a boy and kidnapping fae to find him.

I was tired of talking to different leaders so this had been quite the dream. Talking to the king of elves had already been exhausting his personality had been so flip-floppy I couldn't even tell how he would react to some of my words.

It wasn't long before we finally reached the queen. I couldn't wait to get things over with

"hello Tillia and others" what brings you here she asked

Myrin rolled his eyes as the Queen forgot to mention his name

"im here for my pay" she said as she crossed her arms

I stood there in confusion. We were here for the war and here tillia was talking about getting paid. The queen didn't seem like a friendly type and she didn't seem to care that tillia wanted her pay. She seemed way to interested in herself to even care about others.

"yea that what do you want," said the queen as she crossed her legs and put her full attention on tillia.

The woman's whole aura absolutely annoyed me. She seemed like a snob. The way she looked at Tillia was horrible. It was pretty obvious the Queen didn't care about her at all.

It made no sense. Tillia said they worked together prior but the way the woman looked at her and talked to her was not how you act towards someone who you considered as a teammate

" I want you to help us in the war," Tillia said still keeping the same confidence she started out with.

The woman began to laugh but not how the king of elves did I was obvious she thought of this whole situation as a joke and it made my blood boil. All I wanted to do was tell her off and make sure that when she's faced with a situation similar shell knows how to act because this was not how you act.

"i thought I taught you well" said the lady as she continued laughing obnoxiously "a pixie must always know if you don't have to get involved in a dangerous situation then don't"

It all made sense why Tillia reacted like that at the police station. It was because that's how she was raised. That was what was drilled into her head from a young age. I felt bad for being so harsh. The real problem was the coward in front of me.

"well that quiet a coward way to live don't you think?" Tillia responded

"its kept us alive" said the lady

"well that won't last long" I said as I stared at the floor

"Excuse me?"

"well if we lose your next so either way you'll die if you don't fight might as well give it a chance" I said but this time I wasn't looking at the ground I was looking into her eyes.

A look of Fear fell upon her face

"a-are you serious" she said "i can't lose another war" her hands fell into her face.

"then fight" I said with confidence

She began breathing faster

Then she came to a stop "do you guys need tricks?"
