Mystics of the Light

Valery's Perspective: More Teasing!

Reese....

She's unconscious. Aspen turned into a freaking teenager, and I'm just weirded out. First he's a tree, and the next thing you know he's a human! Like, WHAT THE HECK MAGIC!? Wait.... what was I talking about again? Oh yeah! Reese. Wow, I have a terrible memory!

Aspen placed the barely breathing Reese in front of Jess, as I learned her name was, and one of her willow like branches came down over Reese's injury. Her face was pale, she was barely breathing, her skin looked shattered like she was made of glass, and her dark hair flew around in the light breeze. I felt myself tearing up, at the sight.

This was the second time in the week she's been hurt.

"Is she gonna be okay, Jess, Nan?" Rose asked, her high pitched voice cracking.

"She's gonna stay like this, because of her power being so powerful," Autumn replied, "There is a cure to wake her up and get rid of the dust without any consequences, but we're gonna have to travel a bit. Besides, that's gonna mean to move the colony as well."

"What do you mean move the colony?" I asked.

"With a mixture of blue and brown pixie dust, we can cluster it around the meadow and move everyone," Lilac said, coldly. Probably feeling guilty for doing what happened to Reese.

"You seem to know a lot about pixie dust alchemy," Aspen said to Lilac.

"I loved to study the new effects of mixtures with different pixie dust," she answered, "In fact, most of the mixtures with the pixie dust wouldn't be known if I wasn't here."

"Wow," I stated, "So.... wait. Jessica?"

"Hmm?" she said, a bit strained.

"You wanted to say something about Lilac and Rose. What was it?"

"Ah! Yes. Well, seeing how Rose is very protective of the meadows and how Lilac loves the alchemy of pixie dust, their Nan is too elderly to be in the Mystics of the Light, and I'm no longer in a physical form to fight, they're the new members of the Mystics of the Light."

"W-wait, what?!" Rose exclaimed, "What do you mean 'New members'?"

"She's saying that you're a part of the Mystics of the Light, seeing how a family member is no longer available for fighting," Aspen said, "That's the same thing my grandmama said about me."

"So...." Lilac said, "Because of my alchemy, and Rose's protective self, we are a part of the Mystics of the Light?"

"That is correct," Autumn answered, "It's quite the coincidence that two of the strongest color mixture of pixies are new members. Pink and purple."

"What do you mean strongest mixture?" I asked.

"Purple pixies, like Lilac, are very curious and often times like to experiment with dangerous things. Seeing how alchemy could go either way, Lilac's done something dangerous at just a teenage year! Pink pixies, such as Rose, are strong fighters and often times can do anything with combat. Making these two mixtures the strongest, and most rare as well."

Rose and Lilac looked at their features and smiled.

"Well," Lilac said, "Now I'm a FIGHTER! YEAH! WHAT ARE YOU GONNA SAY NOW PIXIE BULLIES!"

We all looked at each other and started laughing at the goofiness. The only person not laughing was Reese. Cold, nearly dead, Reese. I kneeled at her body and moved her hair from her shattered face. I realized that it was the lines that showed on her from before. I sighed, and, to my surprise, Aspen came and cupped Reese's face.

BLEH! Mushy stuff alert! Mushy stuff alert!

I hate lovey duby stuff by the way, if you couldn't tell. But I LOVE to tease Reese about it. Maybe I'll tease both Reese and Aspen when she wakes up. Who knows? I DO!

"Uh, Aspen," I said, "What are you doing?"

"Hmm?" he said, out of his trance of thought, "Oh... uh, I...."

"Young love," Autumn said, "It's very adorable."

"I-I-I was just seeing if she was alright! Nothing more!"

"Sure, Aspen, SURE!" I teased. Yes, the teasing has begun! MUWAHAHAHA!

"Valery!" he whisper yelled, "I do not!"

Rose, Lilac, and I started laughing hysterically. Young love was both adorable and fun to tease about!

Aspen started blushing and walked to the other side of Jess's HUGE twisted trunk which made me laugh harder.

"Going to the other side of the trunk won't get you away from the WUV!" I hollered.

Rose and Lilac were on the grass, breathing and half laughing from my teasing.

"Stop!" Rose said, coughing, "You're gonna kill me with laughter!"

"That's what I'm all about!" I said.

Even though Reese wasn't awake, at least I could still joke around; the best thing about life!
