Fairy Dust

Pressure

"This year will be great for Sienna, she excels in everything she does. The academy has every confidence that she will leave here a great guardian." Phillip said with confidence.

But Sienna shifted uncomfortably. They were talking as if she wasn't there. The academy never summoned parents or anyone not affiliated with the lectures or housing, but Sienna's mother insisted on frequent check ups to make sure she stayed on track.

"And her flying?" Mrs Lightwood asked, pushing for more intel.

"Oh yes. She's a magnificent fairy Ma'am." Phillip replied, laying back on his large chair. They were in Philip's office in one of the small rooms on the first floor. A tiny space covered in a lot of red decorum and had antlers all over the room. The students called it Phillip's sex dungeon.

"Excellent." She smiled.

"Although.." The thin grey man trailed and Siennas' mother's face dropped slightly. The room suddenly got colder.

"Her attendance hasn't been that good recently, not that we are strict on that, but i'm worried about the knowledge aspect of her learning." Phillip refocused his gazed upon Sienna, slouched in her seat, "It's important to balance work and play Sienna," He judged, "Smart girl like you should know that." 

Sienna opened her mouth to say something, but stopped herself upon noticing her mother's scowl.

"Is this all just a joke to you?" Mrs Lightwood scolded as her daughter flew with her down the hall. Sienna knew it was just a matter of time before her mother left after the meetings, and couldn't be bothered to argue with her.

"No Mum." 

"Well then act like it - you have no drive these days. Do I need to explain to you what is happening to the worlds?"

"No Mum."

"And playing? What is this I heard about you playing?" Sienna's mother kept on all the way through the halls, gaining many looks from passing students.

"Nothing Mum." They were now by the main entrance.

"Get your act together girl - if only you knew how serious things were on the outside of this darn academy," She said stopping at the large double doors, "I have a good mind to take you out of here."

"No Mum!" Sienna shouted, voice leaking with desperation. There is no way she could leave. She  wasn't ready.

"Well then get you're shit together." She said, giving her one last hug and leaving through the doors. 

Sienna let out a long sigh of relief. The constant reminder of the state of the worlds rang through her every time she saw her mother, some times it was all she could ever think about.

"Sienna" She suddenly heard from the a distant place in the hallway. Blue was running towards her at full speed on the ground. It was strange seeing a fairy run, if they ever needed to get somewhere quickly - flying was the most clever option.

Blue was getting rapidly closer and Sienna braced her self incase they tumbled to the ground.

Blue went up to her and engulfed her in a tight hug.

"Hey Blue!" Sienna said, confused. 

"Oh my God am I glad to see you!" The small blue fairy huffed, out of breath, "Everyone else is in a lecture and I couldn't find Rogan or Wanda anywhere!" 

"I was just in Philips sex dungeon." Sienna chuckled. But Blue just stared.

"Huh?" She blinked.

"Oh nothing, Rogan and Wanda are probably at the beach." Sienna informed.
