Jasmine closes the door quietly behind her and sighs in relief.

"The dark fairy didn't do anything. She also didn't seem unfazed or disturbed about me being wingless." 

They say that the Dark Fairies are the most coldest and destructive. They posses dark magic and love violence. But she didn't seem cold at all. She seemed nice.

"Jazzy?" Jasmine jumps. Amyra was standing in the living room looking at you. She had her little stuffed dinosaur in her hands.

She sighs in relief. Her heart was pounding. "You scared me Amyra. Why are you up so late?"

"I couldn't sleep. I went to your room but you weren't there. I was waiting for a long time for you to come. Why did you leave? You know it isn't safe to leave the house at night."

"Oh Amyra," Jasmine shake your head. "Lets go to my room and I'll explain."

Amyra follows closely behind Jasmine back to your room. Carefully shutting the door behind her, Jasmine sat on her bed and Amyra sits next to her.

"So I went outside just to clear my mind. It's hard to sleep with a full mind. I went to the gardens..."

"You what!" Amyra whisper-shouted. "What about the dead fairies that haunt it at night? You could have been caught and haunted to death."

"I know, I know. Calm down sis." Jasmine hushed. "I didn't get caught, but someone else was there."

"Probably a deceased fairy. You've been cursed!"

"I'm not cursed! It wasn't a Garden Fairy even."

"A Water Fairy?"

"No,"

"Then what?" Amyra questions.

"A...Dark Fairy.."

Amyra looked at Jasmine and laughed. "Good one Jazzy!"

"I'm serious. They opened their wings up and they were black. Only Dark Fairies have black wings. She was walking around the gardens wearing a black cloak and hood."

"So she's pretending to the a deceased fairy. Getting a good scare out of us?"

"I don't think so."

"But why was she here? What is the point of coming to the Garden realms out of everything?"

"I don't know."

Jasmine looks out the window at the stars. Amyra sleeps on her bed next to her, the little Dino stuffy in hand. Jasmine thinks about the Dark Fairy.

"She didn't even say anything about my wingless. Why?"

Jasmine gazes at the galactical night sky as the time went by. Second to minutes to hours, then she turns to the clock to see it is 2 in the morning.

"Shoot. I have school in the morning."

She looks back at her sister on her bed and sighs. Jasmine grabs a pillow and blanket and sits back on the couch next to her window, wrapping herself up. She looks back out the window. There were black clouds in the distance.

"Those  weren't there a minute ago." Jasmine watches the clouds in confusion. They seem to be moving closer faster than normal. Then it happened. Somethings started glowing a fiery red in the far distance. Not fiery red. Actual Fire. Jasmine watches in horror as the cloud drifts over the town and houses burst into flames. Then some of the orange flames turn black. She could hear the screams in the distance. Jasmine jumps up and shakes her sister awake.
