The One Winged Crow

Nightmares and Destroyed Tastebuds

Narrators POV

The Next day when The sun began to rise to signal the new morning, Audine climbed out of the makeshift den that she had made for herself, she looked up to the sky and sighed in frustration; no one would be up at this time so Crow wouldn't be up till much later depending on how much her friend had drank.

Audine then ran into the village with the intention of stealing some food when no one was looking.

As time passed and the sun rose higher and higher into the sky, many of Vanya Villages inhabitants woke up and left their homes to get about their daily chores.

Crow was very much still fast asleep in the tavern, but the blonde boy and the girl had carried her upstairs and had propped her onto a couch for her to sleep on, where she was having quite the "dream"

Crows POV

"Helbram? HELBRAM! HEEEEEEEEELLLLLLLBBBBBRRRAAAAAAAM!! WHERE ARE YOU HELBRAM?!"

I looked for Helbram everywhere, but I couldn't find him.

I knew I shouldn't be worried, he's strong, but it has been two days since Helbram went to talk to those human friends of his.

I've looked behind every single tree in the forest, under every rock, I even asked every creature I came across in my search and none had seen him.

I started to panic, I began to fly faster while calling for the fairy green.

"HELBRAM IF YOUR PULLING ANOTHER OF YOUR JOKES THIS ISN'T FU-"

I stopped right then and there in shock, I looked to my right side to see both of my white wings working in perfect harmony to keep me in the air, I began to cry at my realization.

"I can't fly, This is just a Dream."

I then felt myself fall to the Earth, landing with a thud and unbelievable pain in my right side, I got up slowly clutching my right side, my heart began pounding rapidly against my chest as I stared in horror at what laid before me.

The entire forest had been engulfed in flames and fairies so many fairies laid dead, the wings torn from their backs and their blood was everywhere.

My gaze became fixated onto two certain fairies, Helbram and Ling.

They were barley breathing and trying so hard to cling to their lives, Helbram then began to sputter in an attempt to form words which unfortunately I heard each and every word crystal clear.

"Th-This is y-you-your fa-fault, you sho-shou-should've war-warned us."

This caused my tears to flow more freely at the hurtful words from someone I once knew, the pair of Ember and Blue directing an incredible amount of hate at me.

Ling then spoke in stutters as Helbram did.

"Yo-Your a Li-Li-Liar y-you pr-prom-promised to co-co-come ba-back"

"I'M SORRY I WAS GOING TO COME BACK BU-Bu- bu-but."

"Li-Liar"

I clutched the sides of my head and closed my eyes in an attempt to try and wake from this Nightmare; I open my eyes when I felt that my hands were wet and I was smelling Iron.

I took my hands off my head, looked down and stared with Horror that my hands were covered in blood.

I looked up to see myself in a dark abyss when a voice I recognized spoke to me, that was King Harlequin's voice, cold and uncaring.
