Fragment Set 1: Gidget Chronicles

Fragment 3 A Fair Morning

The first week was a nightmare! Awkright and Caster would not stop arguing of deals of power or how things should be running! Gidget had no idea that her life would have ended up becoming a troublesome. One morning after a long night between the old men Gidget left out on her own to explore.

Gidget drew out her scythe and found a ravine. The small river sounded beautiful as the sun rose above the clouds. A little head poked up out of the water. It looked like a little river snake! Gidget giggled and sat at the edge, "Hi there little fella. How's your morning going?" she asked the snake. The snake merely stared at the girl as its tongue flicked out at her. Gidget sighed and set her scythe to the side as she listened to the water.

The water seemed to carry a tune that flowed through the realm. The tune was soft in Gidgets mind. Gidget thought back to the palace... Thyme must be a little lonely since she left on her journey. She left without even giving anyone a good bye... Gidget pulled out the small scroll she had taken from Nightwalker and read the script once more.

The scroll held instructions to resurrecting the dead. The spell was a little bit more complicated than Twilight's in Equestria... Mainly because she reanimated the dead to speak with them... This spell aloud the caster to fully bring someone back to life...

Gidget's eyes stung with tears... She pulled out a broken horn from her pouch, "I don't know what else to do Glade... It's not fair what Nightwalker did to you... You promised me you'd come back!" she sobbed. The snake turned and went back underwater leaving Gidget alone with her sorrow.

The woman sat in the her garden a little ways from a ravine. She tended to her garden and eyed her home and the barrier that kept her hidden from prying eyes. A small hiss quipped from behind and the woman turned to see a small blue snake.

The snake weaved back and forth in the water like a dance in the small pond. The woman smiled and knelt by the pond as she let out a hand to the snake. The snake swam up to the woman and coiled around her arm.

"What is it my dear?" The woman asked. The snake looked up at the woman and it's eyes began to glow with a blue light. The woman saw through the snake's eyes and she saw the flashback of a crying girl... The aura around the girl startled the woman. She blinked causing the memory to fade.

The woman stood and walked back to her home with the snake still coiled around her arm. The woman came out with a starry cloak and her eyes flashed hot pink, "Things are beginning to get rather interesting once again," she said heading for the ravine.

Gidget lay on the ground with puffy eyes. The poor girl had cried every tear out of her body. She felt lonely and sad. The sound of the water being disturbed caused Gidget to bolt up and grab her scythe.

A woman had crossed the small river and now stood only a couple of paces away from her. "W-who are you?" Gidget choked. The woman smiled and held out a hand. The little blue snake slithered down her arm and back into the water. Gidget watched the snake and looked back to the woman, "Is that your snake? Is this your land?" she asked.

The woman shook her head, "Do not be afraid little one. This land is free to whomever roams it. I live a little whiles away yes. The snake is a dear friend of mine who left home with me a long time ago. I am merely a traveler. I am old. I do not have a name par say... But what I can tell you are the titles bestowed upon me through time. I am The Guardian of The Glades, or as some would call me... The Lady of Lies," she said.
