I walked back to my treehouse. I looked at the time. It's only 7:00am. In a calm mood, I decided to change my plans and go to the school and hoped for the best. Putting my favourite outfit on, I grabbed my bike and rode to school.

The iron school gates welcomed me in eerily. Other students looked at me and backed away like I had some contagious disease. I searched for Amee and Méa but they were nowhere to be seen. Probably hiding, scared. I thought.....they were such great friends..... Now I'm alone and sad.😰.

Mea.

I watched Sim walk past, sadness in her eyes. Poor Sim. Amy looked at me.
"So... Your theory of her being a faerie is still up for thought?"
I looked at her. "Yes! And I believe that yesterday when she was talking to us about if we believe in faeries and other mythical creatures, she was trying to explain that to us. We just need to know her backstory."
Amy stood there in deep thought. "But if your wrong, then I'll be rewarded".
I looked at her and nodded. "Meet here lunch? 10?"
The bell rang as we walked our separate ways to our first class.

Sim

I practically ran to my class, hiding from everyone as much as I can. When I reached the classroom, I hid behind a chest of drawers. Thankfully, Méa was the first person to walk in. She opened the door and looked around. He eyes fell onto me. Her reaction wasn't like the others; scared. She was more curious.
"Sim" she whispered, tapping on my shoulder as I looked up at her.
"You have some explaining to do!" I nodded, taking my books out of my backpack and heading over to a seat next to her. Soon enough, the class walked in, they took seats as far away from me as possible.
"Hey Sim!" One of the cheerleaders Tayra yelled with sass in her voice. Everyone looked at her. She was the most popular girl in the school.
"Or shall I call you greenie" she laughed. Everyone else started laughing and pointing at me yelling greenie repetitively. Anger flowed through my veins. No one calls me greenie. No one. My hands turned to flames, ready to shoot Tayra and burn her, but I stopped. Tears fell out of my eyes and my hands returned back to normal. I can't hurt anyone after what happened. I stood up and ran out of the classroom, Méa following me.
"Looser, greenie. Why don't you have a little cry." Tayra teased, flicking her hair.

I ran into the toilets and sat down on the floor. Méa sat down next to me, giving me a hug. I hugged her back, wiping away my tears. She let go.
"Sim, what did Tayra say that made you soo sad and please can you tell me your green problem. I promise I won't tell." I looked at her.
"I guess you should know" she looked at me.
"Tayra made me cry because she made me feel like the odd one out. It felt like what happened to my family"
"What happened to your family?"
"They died, every single one of them. My whole kingdom, every single living being, dead except me"
"Kingdom..... Are you saying you're a princess"
"Yes and somehow every creature to hold magic just died. I woke up one morning and I asked one of my friends, Fern where everyone was and she shook her head and ran away. I followed her and she collapsed. I looked out through the kingdom, everyone was dead." Tears fell out of my eyes once more.
"Wait...... You have magic. And no wonder you are soo sad. You are the last thing in the universe to hold magic. That's awful. Do you visit there often? To check if anyone has survived?"
"Yes I have checked the Nether Lands many times. Nothing and the tree spirits tell me that soon you humans will suddenly develop powers and becoming power freaks wanting to kill me. Princess Sim. I don't know what to do. I just didn't want to tell you"
"I see why. So these tree spirits can talk. So you can talk to plants and animals"
"Yes I am the most powerful faerie. My power is nature"
"Faerie! I was right......OMG......I knew it. Incredible"
I smiled, happy to finally tell her the truth.

Méa smiled, but her smile faded. Her hands turned light blue and her hair became a dark blue. She lifted he hands out and screamed.
"What is happening to me?"
