Chapter 11 Fixing things between the Pixies and Fairies
Quanktumspirit: "Please review."
After that shock, all of the Redleaf colony looked towards Elizabeth for guidance. For starters, she asked for everyone to stand on one side to the Fairies of the Autumn woods. She wanted to sort this mess out about them being their 'supposed enemies'.
Queen Clarion agreed and a massive table was set up, with Elizabeth as the head of the Pixies colony, next to her Dyan and her family and the other Pixies followed after.
On the other side opposite of the newly named Queen, sat Queen Clarion with her guards behind her, then the Tinkerbell gang sat next to her and Felicity sat one left from the Queen. Closest to her best friend and 'lover'.
Queen Elizabeth looked over to Queen Clarion, permitting her to start the meeting, but the Queen didn't move a muscle instead just spoke to Elizabeth threw her kind-hearted eyes.
'You are the Pixies Queen, and you've asked for this meeting so you should start it off.' Queen Clarion explained.
Queen Elizabeth nodded and coughed a bit to silence some chatting Fairies and Pixies down. As it was dead silence Queen Elizabeth started it off by addressing her subjects.
"Well Red leaves... It has come to my attention that most of us are very fast, cruel to the season Fairies, destructive over our own homes and wrecking the other seasons in as well. Correct?" Elizabeth asked facing her people.
Almost all the Pixies sighed and nodded their heads, they bowed their heads down in shame as they thought over all the damage they've caused over their lives.
Elizabeth continued, "Why are all, or most of the Pixies, destructive over what Mother nature works over?"
A brown dressed Pixie rose up, "Your Highness, all of us were born like that. We were never given a greater purpose in live then mining underground and working on our homes. So a very long time ago a Pixie leader suggested we mix things a bit more interestingly up by attacking the Fairies all the time."
"I see. Well, whoever came up with that plan can go and find themselves the next hawk to eat them. The Fairies are very hard working people too. They have to keep all the seasons in balance. As far as I have seen from the autumn woods out is that they help the animals into their hibernation sleep, they take care of shutting all the flowers up, they grow and drop all the fruit and vegetables growing in the mainland and make the last of the leaves fall for winter to begin." Elizabeth explained. "We should have no right to disturbing the circle of their lives and the lives of mother nature. I am not sure what the other 3 seasons do, but I am sure the Fairies in those seasons are just as productive as the autumn woods." Elizabeth explained.
Another Pixie stood up, "That may be Queen Elizabeth, But what are we Pixies supposed to do about it? We've been working and being lead this way for over a thousand decades. Nothing has ever changed our interests."
"I see. So to help the Pixies side you all would need another job of some sort." Elizabeth understood, "Any idea over what?"
But no one stood up, just then Roxanna rose her hand up and faced the Queen terrified. Dyan saw this and blinked surprised at her daughter, she had an idea?
Queen Elizabeth also smiled at the young Pixie, only 3 months old and already so developed and intelligent.
"Yes, Dyan?" Elizabeth smiled, "What for an idea have you got? You may tell us all."
Dyan smiled and bowed her head to the Queen, "Your Highness, I've noticed that in our home several of the Fairies and us Pixies themselves suffer various diseases all the time. So... maybe we all could study the flowers and see if we can become healers of some sort to keep the population up, healthy and maybe even happy?"
All of the Pixies smiled and applauded quietly to her bright idea. Elizabeth gave it a bit of thought and faced Queen Clarion.
"Queen Clarion, would that be a good idea? And may we learn about nature's strength in herbology?" Elizabeth asked.
Queen Clarion nodded her head and smiled softly at her, "You all may. As long as you stop attacking us with angry animals, with hawks or anything else. If you want this 'partnership' to work out you have to work with us in peace, please?"
Elizabeth remembered that that was an old factor in the Pixie colony, that they just enjoyed fighting so much. Some of the Pixies grumbled under their breaths, this was one factor they all enjoyed for decades, and now for it to be given up, just to have peace?
After thinking it over, all the Pixies nodded their heads in agreement, they placed all their bows, arrows, ropes, dust, and any other attacking equipment down and nodded to Elizabeth that her wish will be completed.
But, as the last adult Pixie had handed Elizabeth their weapons over, Roxanne realised a problem.
"Wait a sec, every child or baby Pixie, stand by your parent, please," Roxanne called out and stood by Dyan.
Dyan blinked and looked at her daughter, "what's wrong dear?"
Roxanne looked back to her mother, "Mother, each Pixie is born and given to an adult pixie to be raised correctly? The same number as the birth last year, right?"
"Um... yes every Pixie knows that." A different adult Pixie said stroking his own son's hair pleased, "Why?"
Roxanne turned around and pointed at Elizabeth, "Because our Queen, Elizabeth Redleaf, hasn't found her child yet, she or he must still be hanging in the Pixie's birth forest, waiting for her."
The oldest adult Pixie's eyes widened, "Oh no. Should we return and find him or her your highness?"
Elizabeth nodded her head, "Yes, I'll come as well. I don't want my child to be harmed."
In a flash the meeting was stopped, every Pixie and Fairy shot from the autumn section, back into spring and returned to Elizabeth and Dyan's birthing field.
The entire colony Red Leave reached the birthing field within 2 hours, they saw all the older birthing sacks have already collapsed and were turning into seeds. But there was really one left.
The sack was hiding quite well behind several other flowers, but hanging there, swaying and it seemed to be dead.
Elizabeth hung her head and landed in front of the puppet Pixie, Felicity flew to her side and sat next to her.
"There really is one left," Felicity whispered, stroking a bit of Elizabeth's brown hair back.
Elizabeth blushed at her girlfriends' touch and nodded her head, they looked at the baby Pixie, but it didn't seem to be hatching.
Elizabeth hung her head, "I should have followed the other Pixies round normally, then... then there wouldn't be a dead Pixies blood on my own hands."
"Maybe not Queen Elizabeth." Roxanne smiled. "Queen Elizabeth, take Felicity's hand and both of you hold it towards the puppet Pixie baby. Maybe your combined love for one another could save her?"
Felicity's face grew red, she stared at the other Pixie child and then turned back round to Elizabeth. The Queen's own face was just as red, but she did tell her she was in love with her. They breathe in before nodding their heads at the idea, it was worth a shot.
Queen Elizabeth took Felicity's hand carefully, Felicity nodded her head and the two pointed their hands towards the small puppet. They saw small magical sparks shooting from both hands, the sparks colours were pink.
Dyan, Roxanne, the other Fairies and Pixies all watched as Felicity's and Elizabeth's hands and the puppet were growing brighter and brighter. Elizabeth and Felicity felt a hot burning sensation as their hands were circling around the small puppet.
Felicity faced Elizabeth, 'Could our friendship and love save the last Pixie?'
Elizabeth was facing Felicity as well, 'Could our friendship and love save the last Pixie?'
Suddenly a small crack was heard, all eyes shot back forward towards the puppet. Elizabeth and Felicity's eyes widened as the puppet suddenly came alive, more cracks were emerging, and a small baby's head appeared. Elizabeth quickly opened her arms as the baby Pixie finally crashed from the birthing branch, and landed in her arms.
"w... w... what happened?" The small baby Pixie asked surprised.
Elizabeth and Felicity blinked, they saw this baby Pixie has the same blond hair as Felicity and the same blue eyes like Elizabeth's.
Roxanne's eyes were glistening with tears, "Very good job Queen Elizabeth, and Felicity, your friendship love has saved her life."
The tiny newborn Pixie giggled and stared at Elizabeth. "Mama."
Elizabeth felt tears falling from her eyes, the small Pixie giggled and Felicity picked her up, before hovering next to her lover.
Felicity stared into the baby Pixies eyes and then at Elizabeth, "She's perfect. What will her name be dear?"
"Lyra, Felicity. Ok? Lyra Redleaf." Elizabeth suggested smiling.
Felicity beamed, Elizabeth took the Pixie baby and wrapped it up in a green blanket, the tiny being giggled and googled at Elizabeth, feeling relieved that she has been finally born.
A beautiful baby born between a Fairy and Pixie love.
Quanktumspirit: "Done finally."
