It's been 5 years since I last saw Travis. I miss his goofy smile, I miss his stupid excuses. I miss him.
~~~~
I felt a strange, uplifting feeling close to a month ago, almost as if a dark presence disappeared. Perhaps Travis knows something about this.
Travis?
It's strange, I can't feel his aura anymore. Could he have been the disappearance?
"Lady Sage, Lady Lynphea would like to speak with you."
I turned my head to see Marina in the doorway. Nodding slightly, I made my way to the grotto.
Was I in trouble again?
No, I've stayed put since the last events.
What would the elder pixie possibly want with me?
-------------
I was sent on my first mission.
You see, the pixies of my safe hold were messengers. We sent messages from people of power to others, though of course thanks to everyone having to go into hiding, not many messages were sent nor delivered.
Not many preparations were needed to be made for each mission seeing as Pixies didn't eat much. They didn't need to eat much, unless of course they hadn't eaten in the last month. The food was always greatly stocked so it made it easier for us to go on long trips. It's amount had greatly increased since the Demon Warlock begun taking many of the species for their power, but it didn't seem to bother their leader. If anything, it made her happier. The population was decreasing fairly quickly despite the hiding, and the eldest of the species didn't seem to care any less.
Water resources on the other hand...they were scarce. We only had one spring suitable for drinking in the safehold, and it was located close to the edge of the magic barrier. Not many of the pixies were able to make it to the spring and back without being caught by the Demon Warlock, causing our stock of it to deplete along with the population of our village.
I'd finished packing for my trip in a short amount of time. Picking up the parchment that contained the message, I read to see my set target to be a lady named Aphmau. She was supposedly :
'of utter importance to reach in little time '.
With a last goodbye hug to Marina, I prepared my wings for departure. I hadn't ever flown for longer than a day before, so I was partially worried for the outcome.
Here goes nothing..
I pushed my feet off the ledge, wind carrying my body gently through the air. It was surprising how clean the air felt against my skin, almost proving how different the world was compared to the island I never left.
Now, just to find this Aphmau's aura.

Travis' POV
-------------
I'd been trying to transform into one of my demon forms when I felt an unfamiliar but recognisable presence coming from the top deck. I decided to check it out, not just for curiosity, but my friends' safety.
As I reached the top of the stairs, I smelt a sweet almond scent. It had a slight tang of coconut to it. Turning towards the sail post I witnessed some pearlescent green dust circling the air lightly, and a little figure could be made out within the centre of the dust.
"Lucinda watch out!" I heard Katelyn shout whilst jumping at Lucinda.
What seemed to be a woman of human size popped out of the dust, her form taking its place by some crates.
Woah mama..
Her hair was a light grey with a few strands of deep brown. It was reaching her mid-thigh and was contained in a loose braid with small green leaves poking out of it every other inch. She had a partially curvy build, with a height of what I assumed to be around 5 foot 6.
She was wearing a cloudy-white dress with small but noticeable green-leafed details around the hemming. The dress hung loosely around her body, effortlessly defining her hips and curves.
Around her torso sat a brown leather corset and she wasn't wearing any shoes from what I could see, but instead there were small vines curling themselves around each of her feet in clear attempts to pose as shoes.
Her skin was freckled all over, with her ears pointed and tinged slightly pink.
A leaf crown was carefully placed atop her head with barely bloomed white roses emitting from a few stems in the crown. A translucent pair of green wings sat on her back, gently flapping every few seconds.
She smiled sweetly when her green-eyed gaze fell on me, I knew that smile anywhere.
That's why I recognised her.
"Hello, Travis."

Thank you for reading :)
---------------------------------------
Hi! I know the description on Sage's appearance sounded a bit creepily detailed, but we all know Travis is very..uh.. 'observant' when it comes to pretty women.
Work with me here, please?
I love reading comments and ideas or theories for plots so if you are more than happy to do that then please do!
Just to officially clarify, I am not fully sure wether I want this to be a Vylad x oc or a Laurence x oc just yet seeing as I love them both wholeheartedly. I could just make Sage lonely because she's a strong, independent weather pixie, but a little love drama will always be welcomed happily. Either way, we shall befriend Shadow Knights with sweet smiles and cake.
Lots. of. cake.
AS ALWAYS, THANK YOU FOR READING <3

FanfictionTravis had been Sage's friend for as long as he could remember. They grew up together, or at least Travis grew up whereas Sage only earned a pair of wings. The two were almost inseparable, until the Demon Warlock took to raging over the Pixie Safeho...
