Dive Into You

Chapter 13: The Curse: An Angelic Fairy

"How unfortunately right you are, Shinwonie," a familiar voice says, followed by a chiming noise. Jo Jin-ho watches as they all spin around to look at him with wide eyes. A pair of shimmering clear wings protrude from his back as he lands on the ground. They flutter and then close behind him.

"Oh...God...Jin-ho..." Shin-won begins to say.

Jin-ho lifts a hand up to stop him. "If you even think about using this to pick on me with, I won't grant your wishes."

"Uh, that's a genie, Jin-ho," Jeong-yeon states.

"The wings make you look even smaller. You're so cute," Shin-won remarks.

Jin-ho nods.

"Can we call you Thinkerho?" Shin-won exclaims, clapping his hands together and jumping up and down in place. "Or...or...Jin-bell?"

"Shinny, stop, please," Kyung-hwa scolds, putting a hand on his shoulder.

Jin-ho rubs his forehead. "This is what I have to deal with on a daily basis."

"Wait," Jae-min questions, cocking his head to one side and still gripping Seung-kwan's hand. "Are you a small fairy or angel?"

Jin-ho looks down at himself, seeing the white outfit he has on. It's a white sleeveless vest top with white pants and shoes. His hair is long and wavy and his ears are curved to look elven-like.

"I'm not sure, maybe an angel-fairy?" Jin-ho says with a shrug.

"Let's say fairy," Shin-won proclaims. "Sticking with the fairytale theme here. Do you produce pixie dust? Does it really only take faith, trust and pixie dust to fly? OOH! Can you make us fly to Neverland? Is it true you don't age?" He begins to babble on with never-ending questions.

Jin-ho sighs and shakes his head. "Just let him have his fun."

"Have you seen Hak-nyeon and Dami?" Seo-ho asks.

Jin-ho brushes his arms off and sends small sparkles off of him. (Yes, Shin-won, he produces pixie dust, satisfied?) "They're in the forest, singing about some happily ever after together. I hung out in a tree to watch them for a little bit, until it got too mushy. The raspy vocal harmony though...that was music to my ears."

"Can you or the black bird tell them were at the cottage?" Kyung-hwa questions.

"I'll do it," Ravn pipes up and zooms off Seo-ho's back into the sky and then is gone within a heartbeat.

"Good, everyone is alive and well. Now you must tell us about this curse and dragon-guy," Kyung-hwa says.

"I think we'll need to sit down for this," Ryu-jin says, looking up into Jeong-yeon's shiny eyes.

And so, Hak-nyeon and Dami arrived on Maverick to the site, following Ravn the raven. Then they all gathered around the campfire to retell the coming of the dragon named Jin Yong-sun, the curse he enchanted them with and the events leading up to meeting up with Kyung-hwa and Shin-won. (And the two spoke about their emergency trip into the house to check on potatoes.)

But that's not all...no, of course not...there's still more to this bizarre fairytale. More action, love and mystery.

For as soon as they finished chatting about it and were about to craft a plan, the sun shifted in the sky, turning crimson and becoming the moon.

And a familiar, heart-stopping cry split through the air.

This time, none of them would question seeing a dragon...
