Part 16

The dinner with Darcy’s parents went well. Mr. D’Angelo gave his bless for the marriage of her daughter and Bobby and he was very happy that Darcy had found the love of her life.

- You enchanted them – Darcy was smiling in the man’s car in front of her house after Bobby took her home. – I admit, I was afraid that you forget the dinner because of something like a Poker Night.
- I would never do such a thing... – Bobby quickly pressed a light kiss on her lips. – We’ll meet tomorrow... and I’ll take a ring for you – he added smiling. Darcy smiled back at him and after a new goodbye-kiss she got out of the car. Bobby headed to home when suddenly he heard a sound like when a bell rings. He sighed and stopped the car and after a few seconds Ayala appeared in the seat next to him.
- Is this sign good for you? – She asked politely.
- It’s perfect.
- I came to tell you that I arranged everything.

Bobby gulped.

- So... will we go there... now?
- No, we’ll go there after sunrise... about after 6 a.m. Fairies of the dark side are hurt by the light. This was their punishment because of their rebellion.
- Well, okay, but what will we do until then?

The fairy made herself comfortable.

- We will be waiting... and hoping that we are alive when the sun rises.

This sounds ominous

Lynn

I'm glad the dinner went well!! I like the bell sound that Ayala used to announce her presence!! I will have to say though I don't look forward to the sunrise, and I don't imagine Bobby does either!!!

Joy

Yikes! To have to wait until morning to see if you're still alive. Eeek! The bell was a good idea, Ayala!!

I am posting two new parts now. Hope you'll like them.


Part 17

Bobby and the fairy went to the man’s flat to wait for the dawn. Ayala explained the plan for Bobby. Light harms evil fairies so they are vulnerable in the daytime so only one fairy will guard their holy obsidian stone whom Ayala can defeat but they have to hurry before the others realize everything. The most difficult case is how to defeat the wolves... there everybody will stand on guard... Ayala and Bobby could die just because of the tiniest mistake. Ayala will make Bobby and herself invisible with her fairy magic and hope that the wolves aren’t ready for this kind of action.

- We can go, it is dawn now – Ayala said suddenly. Bobby looked out of the window and then at the fairy; he couldn’t see any changes outside.
- You know, there were times when my life depended on the sunrise. Now I can feel it.
- Okay... – the man stood up. – Will it hurt when you make me invisible?

The fairy smiled impishly.

- Not so much.

Part 18

20 minutes later they were standing in the edge of the forest. After Ayala’s answer Bobby thought of losing one of his hands or legs but his other half got suspicious that there are simply such creatures that have worse humour of sense than Myles.

- Are you ready? – Ayala asked.
- No, I’m not, but please, do it quickly.

Sparkling light appeared from the hand of the fairy which covered them slowly. Bobby had such feeling if his head was being pressed and he couldn’t breathe but it ended suddenly.

- Are you well? – The fairy asked worriedly, seeing that the man almost fell over.
- I have to get used to be invisible...but why can I see you and you me? Wasn’t your magic successful?
- Of course it was – the fairy looked at him resentfully. – We can see each other, but the others can’t see us.
- Okay – the man sighed. – Let’s go.

They were walking in the forest slowly, and they both thought the same: that maybe they won’t get out of it alive.

This is very scary, but I'd love to try being invisible!!!

Joy

I think I would like to be invisible too, on occasion, but not all the time. I wouldn't want to know what people are saying about me behind my back!!

Now, I'm going to go back to

Lynn

What's really sad is that invisible no one will be able to see Bobby's dimples. That's tragic! Very imaginative, Kitti!

kav

I have to all three comments above! I think Bobby would probably say it's not easy being invisible.

Don't worry, Kav, we can imagine his sweet dimples, can't we?


Part 19

- Do they live in the same place and hate each other? – Bobby grumbled after Ayala explained him that evil fairies and wolves live in the other sides of the forest.
- Like a bad couple – Ayala answered jovially. – But we must be quiet... they can’t see us but they can hear us.

Bobby nodded and took the first steps quietly. They got to the evil fairies’ camp in a short time, were nobody could be found; not too far from them something violet-coloured was vibrating.

- The Holy Stone – Ayala whispered. They went closer and the stone was guarded by just one fairy. Sharp light flashed and then that fairy was lying on the floor with bleeding head. Bobby counted himself fortunate that Ayala doesn’t want to hurt him... he wanted to reach for the stone but Ayala hit his hand.
- Wait, I have to see if there is any hex on it – and she pulled her hand above it very slowly.
- I thought you said that we had to hurry – the man became impatient.
- I’m sorry but I don’t want us to be dead and there isn’t anything on the stone. You can take it.

Bobby grabbed the stone and relieved when he saw that he didn’t lose any of his limbs. They fulfilled one of their challenges... but who can guarantee that the other one will be successful as well?

Too funny!

Sure glad Bobby still has all his limbs. And I'm betting Darcy will be glad too!!

Reference to violence and strong paranormal things.


Part 20

The camp of the wolves was crowded. Everywhere animals were moving, Bobby saw just one human among them.

- He is Nytar – Ayala explained. – He keeps the cream.
- He seems to be very devil.
- Because he is.
- Come on, just calm me down.
- I’m not here to tell you lies – because of the reproachful voice of the fairy Bobby smiled.
- You would get on well with Myles.
- Who is he?
- He is like you. Just in man. And he can’t do magic.
- I don’t like being with humans since Nostradamus.
- Were you going out with Nostradamus? – Bobby was looking for his jaw. –But he lived... five hundred years ago.
- I know. He was my only true love. But Death reached him as well... because he was just a human.
- I’m sorry... but I have to tell you that you wear these things well, even if you are over 500...
- Thanks. But I think we should care for our challenge now. We should call Nytar here. Away from his wolves.
- Ask two easier things. But as I can see, you already have a plan – Bobby said, looking at the intent face of the fairy.
- I’ll make myself visible and you’ll take the vial from him while he is trying to kill me.
- You went crazy. I don’t want you to die.
- Neither do I, but sometimes we have to do things we don’t want to.

Before Bobby could argue more, the fairy became visible. It was followed by a loud rattle; the wolves tried to attack her but Nytar stopped them. With an evil grin on his face he went to Ayala and stopped in front of her.

- It was a brave thing to come here, Ayala. Brave, but stupid.
- You won’t get Darcy D’Angelo.

Nytar’s eyes widened.

- How do you...
- It doesn’t matter. The fact is that you won’t. Just through my dead body.
- We can solve this – Nytar grinned. – I dare you.
- I accept it.

In the next moment lights flashed and a bleeding wound appeared on Nytar’s face; because of the sudden pain he almost fell over and something fell out of his robe...

Bobby grabbed the vial filled with something green.

- Run! – Ayala screamed as she was trying to escape from the king of the wolves. – You can’t help me anymore!
- Who are you talking to?? – Nytar was extremely angry.
- I won’t leave you alone! – Bobby answered, and Nytar turned over and looked at the place he heard the voice from.
- Somebody is here! Catch him! He stole the Darigold! – he ordered his wolves who started to run to the place where Bobby was standing. Ayala turned over and said something which caused Bobby flying, out of the forest and the wolves stopped; they lost him. The fairy saved Bobby but she couldn’t herself; a green light from Nytar reached her back... the queen of the fairies trembled, fell over and... didn’t move anymore.

Please don't let her die...

Thanks for everybody who read my story. I hope you enjoyed reading it because I enjoyed writing it.


Part 21

Bobby was standing next to his car soon, where Ayala’s magic had sent him, and he looked at the forest scared. He had the stone and the cream as well but the fairy wasn’t with him. The last he could see was that she fell over and the wolves attacked her... but he thought it was nothing to a fairy.

She died. Because of me and Darcy. And I wasn’t nice to her too much...

He was looking at the forest for some more minutes, hoping that Ayala will come out of it and she is well but nothing happened. He opened the door of his car sighing and got in. He had no idea where to put the things he had got. He would have liked to give them to the fairy.

Suddenly he heard a sound... like when a bell rings. He almost caused a collision but finally managed to stop and looked at the seat next to him trustingly. A few seconds later the fairy appeared there. She visibly had strong pains and was bleeding. But she was alive.

- Put... some cream... on my wound – she gasped and Bobby obeyed; the bleeding wound of Ayala healed immediately. She closed her eyes, trying to collect herself.
- How did you manage to escape? – The man asked after she opened her eyes. – I thought...
- Me too... Nytar isn’t as strong as he was. If he were so strong, I would have been in trouble when his green light reached me. But he is 800 years old. The power fades away... I’m afraid of the day when my 800th birthday comes. I hope I’ll be alive on that day.
- It is not possible that I’ll be alive on the day of my 100th birthday. You know, humans aren’t for hard wear.
- Fairies aren’t immortal either. But it is very hard to kill them.
- But I think I would change lives with you... so, can I take you home or... you would like to fly?
- I haven’t got so much strength for it. I would choose your car now.
- Okay, just tell me where you want to go. Can that place be found on map, can’t it?
- Yes, it can be – Ayala smiled. – Please, take me to the park in the 26th Street. I’ll call one of my fairies there and go home with her.
- All right.

They were silent for some minutes, and then Ayala suddenly started to speak:

- I saw Nostradamus.
- Pardon?
- I saw him. And I wanted to stay with him. But he sent me back.
- He was right. You are needed here.
- Maybe... but... I miss him so much.
- What would have been with your fairies if you had died? Nytar and Drogan would have killed them. A man isn’t worth so much... but please, don’t tell Darcy that I said a thing something like that... but... Darcy will be well now, won’t she? Won’t she be kidnapped?
- No, she won’t. Everything will be all right.

Bobby stopped in front of the park the fairy told him.

- Thank you for everything very much. Really.
- You are welcome – Ayala smiled at him and wanted to get out of the car but Bobby grabbed her hand.
- Will we meet again?
- I don’t know. But I thought you wish me further.
- Well, in the beginning I did. But when I thought you died, everything changed. If you hadn’t been here, I would have lost my sweetheart.
- Not at all... really.
- And there are the stone and the cream. I can’t do anything with them.
- You want to give a ring to Miss D’Angelo tomorrow, don’t you?
- Yes, I do – Bobby felt as if an eternity had passed since he stepped out of the woman’s house.
- Then give me the stone.

The man did as the fairy asked for, who squeezed the stone, and seconds later she gave the man a pretty ring, which was decorated by the obsidian stone.

- You can give this to her. And I blessed your relationship as well.
- What does this mean?
- If a relationship is blessed by a fairy, it will last forever and ever. Even Death can’t destroy it.
- I think you blessed your relationship with Nostradamus.

Ayala smiled sadly and Bobby changed the topic.

- Will you come to the wedding?
- If you invite me, I will.
- Where can I send the invitation card?
- Burn it away and give the ashes to the wind in the daytime. I will know where to go and when.
- Well... okay. Wait, there is the cream as well.
- Thank you. If we can make more of it, I’ll send you some. It is needed to your job.
- That’s true. Then... I hope we’ll meet again.
- Bobby?
- Yes, Ayala?
- Will that Myles be at the wedding as well?
- Yes, he will.
- Then we’ll meet there. See you soon.
- Goodbye.

The fairy got out of the car and went in the park. Another fairy appeared soon who hooked on to Ayala and they disappeared together. Bobby shook his head then drove away.

After such big actions the hero usually goes to the woman of his dreams to admit his deep love, and the woman is overcome by emotion and it is followed by passionate love scenes. So we can suppose that Bobby went to the woman of his dreams as well.

Well, he didn’t. He went home to sleep. It was 3 a.m., and it is a hard thing to save the world. The confession of his love will be tomorrow.

THE END

I love that last line! What an adventure Bobby had...but I'm curioius about one thing, why does Ayala want to know if Myles will be at the wedding? It sounds like you have something in store for us in the future.

kav

Kitti, I held my breath through those last posts!! I thought we had lost Ayala too!!!

Ayala and Myles - I think I like the sound of that!!!

Thanks for sharing!! This is an amazing story!!!

Joy

I like that the hero was also human and admitted he was tired!! Sometimes passion just has to wait until you've had a good night's sleep!

Thanks for sharing!

Fantastic story!!

Oh Kitti, I loved how you ended this. Bobby would be tired and that made it all so real -- which is a lot to say for a story with fairies in it.

Well done!

Wow, very exciting story! I loved every minute of it!

I would have never imagined that mixing Sue Thomas with paranormal things could be so great... Well done story, Kitti, thanks for sharing!

Finally caught up on your story Kitti. I was scared when Bobby picked up the Holy Stone. I love Bobby's humor, even in the midst of danger!

It made me sad when Ayala died....or I thought she died...so I was very happy when she appeared in Bobby's car. Great story Kitti.

And I'm thinking there might be a sequel too? Where Ayla goes asfter Myles?
