Chapter Four- Into the Forest
Fira
Violet, Nia, and I talked to Willow. We decided it would be best to leave today, or at least tomorrow. The sooner the better. A fox walked in from a door leading to another room. She had light blue fur and was wearing black headphones. She was listening to a song but slipped off her headphones to look up at us. The room suddenly got quiet as she entered and she and Violet eyed each other of a few seconds.
“Hi guys... Hi Vi and Willow… Umm… Whatcha doin?” She was eyeing me and Nia awkwardly, staring especially at our wings.
“Alice- this is Fira…” She gestured towards me, “… and Nia…” She gestured towards Nia, “And they are… uh… well… let me explain…” She took Alice into the room she had come from, probably to explain what was happening. I looked over at Violet and Nia.
“Violet, who’s she?” Asked Nia.
“Umm… well… that’s Alice. She’s really close friends with Willow… umm…” I could tell Violet was uncomftorable talking about Alice for some reason.
“So… Violet… is Willow the only person coming along with us… or is there more who might come?” I asked.
“Well… I’m not sure. Willow is talking to Alice right now and Alice might end up wanting to come… but I doubt it… we have a weird relationship, her and I.” Violet said.
Willow and Alice came back into the room.
“You guys have fun with that quest of yours. I’m going to stay here and hang.” She slipped her headphones back on and headed back out of the room.
“So, what do you say, guys? Should we head out?” Willow asked. And we all nodded.
We walked around the Village. Willow said she was going to pick up a few random supplies at the store before we left. I mean- since she was a warlock and Violet knew the forest really well, we probably weren’t going to have any trouble surviving. We really had nothing to worry about at the moment.
We entered a small little store at the edge of town and made our way inside. It sold pretty much anything you wanted. A younger fox with brown fur was not to far away from us in the store. Violet and Willow recognized her right away and ran up to her.
“Hey Oakie!” They exclaimed.
“Hey guys! Whats up?” Replied ‘Oakie’ excitedly. Violet gestured for us to come over. Nia and I slowly flew over and landed near them.
“Guys- this is Oak. Oak- this is Nia and Fira. Oak’s my apprentice in magic and our friend.” Willow said. Oak smiled.
“Nice to meet you!” She said giddily. She was a very high-spirited fox. All jumpy and full of energy.
“Nice to meet you too!” Said Nia.
“Yeah- Nice to meet you!”
“So what are you guys doing here?” Oak asked us.
“Umm.. well..” Violet cut me off.
“I can explain.” She whispered the whole predicament into Oak’s ear. Her eyes widened as she heard the story.
“I have to come. Please! Do you mind if I tag along? And since I’m Willow’s apprentice it won’t be too bad- I mean… she can teach me magic and stuff on the way, right?” Exclaimed Oak.
“Well… I guess so Oak. Welcome to the team!” Smiled Willow and oak gave a slight squeal of excitement.
“So when do we leave?” She asked.
“Well… now…” I said.
“Oh, ok…”
We headed into the forest. Oak, Violet, Nia, Willow, and I. It smelled wonderful- like cedar trees. I took a long whiff of the smell. We walked deeper into the forest. As we got farther it got a little bit darker but much more peaceful. Me and Violet and Nia where hovering/flying over the ground with Oak, and Willow who were on foot. Willow kept pointing out certain plants or things to Oak and explaining them to her. I guess it was some sort of apprenticing. We decided to take a rest and decide where to start.
That was when I saw the shadows.

Chapter Three- Ideas
Violet
From the moment Fira heard that I didn’t know what element I was she had been acting a little bit weird. I could tell she was hiding something. But I decided not to talk about it. Its not like I wasn’t hiding anything from her.
The truth is, Jake isn’t with my mom. My mom is dead- at least that’s what the warlocks think. They aren’t sure. But right now Jake and I are ruling the kingdom. I just couldn’t tell them about mom. I wasn’t ready to talk about it.
Jake is actually out in the village talking to Hawkspirit, or maybe Blackstone, I don’t really pay attention. He has his own group of friends.
Sometimes I feel like an outsider in the kingdom. Jake always hangs with the warlocks, the warlocks always hang with each other, the shop keepers are always together. But im just sort of… alone. I mean its not really true. I have some friends. Like Alice, or Willow. But its kind of awkward for me to talk to Alice, since she is really Juniper’s ‘new self’ or whatever you call it. Its just weird. Because no matter what, Alice is not Juni. Alice is not my sister.
But back to the present. Fira suggested we go up into the clouds. Im not sure how she even knew you could go on clouds, but she said she remembers faintly her mother doing it with her when she was little. So we are up in the sky, close to a cloud. I guess it’s the most private place we can get.
Once we reach the cloud we make our way on top of it. It’s the most amazing thing I have ever done. The cloud feels like cotton and you can see for miles and miles ahead of you. It smells almost minty, with a tint of water. Something about the cloud reminds me of a forest, though I have no idea why.
“This is amazing.” I say.
“It is.” Says Nia. We both turn to Fira. She has tears in her eyes but shes wiping them away with her paw.
“You okay?”
“Ya, sorry, I’m fine.” I don’t believe her but I decide not to talk about it.
“So Fira… What where you saying?”
“Yes. Yes. Okay. So… my father. He was turned into a shadow before I could fly. I was so young. I don’t remember him at all. But we went on this long quest to find my mother because he took her and…” Fira was talking so fast I could barely understand what she was saying. Something was wrong.
“…Fira. Let me explain.” Said Nia. “Lets start from the beginning. I’ll make it short. At least as short as I can. So this one day Fira’s mom disappeared. We had to find her or else the kingdom would go into peril and… well… anyway… So we went on this quest to find her mother and we discovered that her mother had been taken by her father, who was indeed a shadow fairy. We found him in the forest in his layer and rescued Fira’s mother, as well as capturing him in a bottle.” I nodded, soaking it all in, “Since then Fira’s mother has pretty much gone insane. She wants her husband back. And we are once again trying to save the kingdom.” She rolled her eyes. Fira took a deep breath.
“I can continue from there Nia.” Fira cut her off, “So we’ve come here because we found an ancient book about a flower that can turn bad into good. Its supposedly so powerful that it can turn a shadow good. It was all we could find that had even a slight hope of getting my dad back.” She held open her paw and a fireball appeared in it and a book transformed from the fire. “Here’s the book.”
I opened the book and read all about the flower. I soaked it all in. It was truly amazing. But it made total sense why the flower would be here. Because our kingdom is Air and Light elements. And if this is a light flower- it makes sense that it would be found here.
“So this is what you want to find?”
“Yes.”
“I have a friend who can probably help.”
We landed in front of Willow’s house. It was a cabin made of wood but it totally fit her style. I had been in it many times. Its messy inside- but even though its messy it seems organized. Its funny. Willow usually doesn’t mind if I just come in but I knock just in case. I don’t hear a response so I just open the door. Willow looks up from her desk where she’s reading and quickly shuts the book and makes it disappear.
“Oh.. Umm… Hi Vi.”
“Hey.”
“Whatcha doin- and who r they?” She asks suspiciously, gesturing towards Nia and Fira.
“Well….. long story. But they need your help.” She curiously examined both of them and then raised her eyebrows.
“What da ya need help with?”
Fira and Nia explained everything to Willow- giving close details about the flower. But when Willow got her paws on the book she almost fainted. Willow had a thing with books and I guess this book was valuable and cool somehow because she just stared intently and the pages making squeaking sounds and gasping. This went on for a few minutes when she finally looked up at us.
“I would love to help you. I have seen this flower. It was a few years ago- and I haven’t seen it since. Its so rare… so valuable. I want to find it. I will help you.”
Fira let out a gasp of relief and Nia just grinned.
