|
There once was a red-headed faeiry named Zephyr. She was named
|
|
after the gentle breeze known as fate that turns people towards their
|
|
destiny. Zephyr was not your ordinary faeiry who flew around visiting
|
|
flowers, talking with small woodland creatures, and generally running
|
|
amuck by exposing herself to various humans. No, that was not our
|
|
Zephyr! Instead, she was part of the quiet type, who added joy to the
|
|
lives of those she chose to touch, simply by sticking her cute little
|
|
red-headed personality in. However, like all good faeiries, Zephyr did
|
|
expose herself to one human being. She didn't do it to run a muck; she
|
|
didn't do it for her own personal human slave; she didn't do it cos it
|
|
was easy (you see, exposing oneself to a human was strictly against all
|
|
faeiry policy and morality. Seems kinda silly actually, but that was
|
|
what was engrained in Zephyr's cute little head). She did it because
|
|
she fell in love.
|
|
|
|
Love is not a feeling that faeiries are supposed to fall prey to -
|
|
especially not faeiries of Zephyr's caliber. Those like Zephyr were
|
|
supposed to poke in and out of people's lives, her touch unnoticed and
|
|
not asked for; however, Zephyr suddenly found herself in love.
|
|
|
|
Oh, what a grand feeling it is! Zephyr reveled in the sheer joy
|
|
of the feeling itself, not questioning why or what. Then she began to
|
|
see that love is not perfect, that it hurts, and that the object of her
|
|
affection was human. Woe was Zephyr. The human saw the pain in Zephyr's
|
|
eyes; the fear of change from her normal quiet faeiry ways; the pain
|
|
associated with having this feeling cut off from her all her faeiry life.
|
|
The human saw this and did the most remarkable thing - he loved Zephyr
|
|
more! Unaccostomed to the thought of being loved not just for being a
|
|
cute pixie faeiry, but also for being more human than any faeiry ought
|
|
to be, Zephyr nearly fell off the edge of faeiry existence. She pulled
|
|
herself together and allowed the human to love her, and loved him back
|
|
everyway she knew how.
|
|
|
|
And you know what? Zephyr became human.
