Penda POV

Waking up on a cold rock, I groan, the crystals are bright and lushish. No longer in my fairy form, I find Noa not too far from me. I rush over to him, "Noa!"

Shaking him awake, he opens his eyes slowly, feeling relief, I smile, "You're okay."

He smiles, "Of course I am Princess, why wouldn't be?"

Sitting up he looks around, then I feel something strong.

"I feel something."

Love, I feel strong waves of it, from a familiar heart.

"I can sense Stella, we have to go deeper."

Helping him up, he smiles at me thankfully. Turning on his flashlight, we walk through the dark cave. As we go deeper the crystals glow brighter, the closer I stand near them the brighter they glow. Stopping, I place my hand on one of them, becoming powerful in my touch I feel safe and warm.

"I can feel them, the stories of love and time."

My magic grows stronger, "These crystals know a heart."

I feel Noa place his hands on my hips, "Then they should guide us, right?"

I nod, "Let's keep going."

Continuing down, I feel something shift, the heart changes but the love aches in need. "Brandon?"

Noa looks at me curiously, I continue, "Stella isn't here anymore but Brandon is ahead, he's alone."

Noa frowns, "That's not good, we need to hurry."

Rushing we find a large city, the crystals are bright and beautiful. Holding Noa's hand we slide down the dirt hill.

As we sneak through the empty city my power grows, every beating heart, every feeling of love flows through me the deeper we go.

Seeing a guard coming, Noa whispers softly, "Stay here."

Nodding, I watch as he knocks the blockhead out. We rush past him, I hear the sound of silent weeps.

I stop, Noa looks back at me, "Princess, what's wrong?"

I look at him, before edging off further into the city, then I see a crying man.

"Who may you be? Your heart is saddened."

He throws back more liquor, "The saddest Trok ever!"

He weeps, "My love!"

I bend down, making him meet my gaze, "Love is a difficult thing, but it's beautiful, especially when it's as strong as yours."

He looks away, "It was even in the crystals that we would get married."

I nod, "You're right, the crystals spoke to me."

He looks at me wide-eyed, "They spoke to you?"

I nod, "I am the Fairy of Love, and the crystals told me the story of your people, and what is to come. The princess correct?"

He nods, "Then let me help."

Looking at Noa he seems to read my mind as he rushes off only to return with a crystal shard. Handing it to me, my hands glow as the crystal turns into a beautiful flower.

"Gift this to the princess, not even a bouquet can be any more perfect than this crystal rose."

Standing I hold out my hand helping him up, "Let's go!"

Rushing to the wedding, the guards try to stop us.

Transforming, I shine under the light of the crystal, making the audience gasp.

I speak softly, "I am Penda, the Fairy of Love. I have come to deliver the princess the man that will bring her nothing but happiness and eternal wealth."

Looking down at the Princess, I land before her, "Seek the man with the rarest treasure of all. A Crystal Flower."

I look to the audience, "Please, the one who holds the Crystal Flower, step forward."

The lean Trok, steps forward, bowing as he holds out the crystal flower, "For the love of my love, for the one who deserves nothing but perfection, for you Princess."

Looking at the flower, she gasps, stepping down from the altar, she smiles, "I feel it, the love in my heart growing, it's overwhelming."

Looking at the short-haired Trok, she smiles, "My Love! You are my husband!"

As he stands, he wraps her arms around him, making the crowd cheer. Walking over to Brandon I smile, "Let's not keep Stella waiting."

Meeting up with the others The brunette and Blond are together once more. I smile softly at them and the now-free Pixies with Layla, Bloom, and Sky.

Then I lay my eyes on a beautiful pixie, as she flies over to me her voice is calm and regal.

"The stars were right, my fairy has found me."

My eyes widen at the sight of her, "You're beautiful."

She smiles, "As are you, my name is Nova, Pixie of the Stars."

As she flies around me I giggle, "My name is Penda."

Making it to the ship, and heading back to Alfea, Nova rests against me, as I lean against Noa.

The little pixie smiles softly, "To see you is a wonder, I know that the stars will continue to bless me now that you're here."

Landing in Alfea in the dead of night, Noa helps me off the ship. Kissing my lips gently one last time, he returns to Red Falcon with the other specialist.

Showing her to my room, I grow acquainted with the other Pixies, and with little surprise Amora and I hit it off well.

Dressed in my nightgown, Nova waves her hands, forming a star-shaped bed, perfect for her size. I find it adorable, as she places it on my bed.

Happy, I lay beside her, "You must have been scared, I'm glad that you're safe and sound."

She smiles at me softly, "As am I."

Waving her fingers, stares appear on the ceiling, looking at them in awe I feel at ease. I reach out for them, "My home, it's not far."

As if the stars heard me, they shift, allowing me to see my home planet and the suns that orbit around it. Feeling pure joy, I close my eyes gently, "Thank you, Nova."
