A couple days had passed and I was about to give a FantasyLand speech. Clearing my throat, I stepped up to the microphone and spoke.
"People of FantasyLand!"
I silently cursed myself. I told myself I wouldn't say that...it's too corny.
"Agh, Nevermind that. Sorry guys."
Crap! Too casual!
Clearing my throat again, I gave up and just delivered my message. "Mirror has told me about things in Spirit Land and other places I must tend to. I feel as though it's my duty to aid them...I feel an odd connection to them. You might know this already, but Peregrine-"
The crowd hushed even further. The people on the other side of FantasyLand (keep in mind that FantasyLand is twice the mass of Earth. We accessed it through a portal when we came)
"I don't know if you knew this...but Peregrine is my sister."
The people gasped.
"One of us chose the light path, the other walked on the dark path."
Breathe in. Breathe out. Breathe in. Breathe out. It was hard to remember.
"And I have a suspicion that Peregrine has been trying to haunt these places and the people inside them."
An understanding look fell on their faces.
"If you have been a long-term FantasyLand citizen, you would know. But some time ago, when my mother was still Queen, Peregrine's mother left the Dark FantasyLand and came to FantasyLand. She haunted our people, and massive chaos overtook us. It was a dark period, because my mother was ill and her strength failed her when she tried to defeat her. She died in battle, and from her death I rose."
I stayed in human form, but for dramatic effect, I made my dragon wings appear on my back. Then I closed them back in, and they vanished.
"I have decided to temporarily leave FantasyLand. Cho Li will be taking my place as executive ruler while I'm gone."
Then I made a descision that I hadn't thought of before.
On the spot, I said "and I will be taking my boyfriend Jack Blackwell with me."
Glancing at Jack, his face was full of emotions. Shock. Surprise. But there was a glowing underlay of shining excitement and anticipation. I smiled.
Bowing my head informally, I grinned and said thank you to the people.
Bouncing off the stage and into Jack's arms, I smiled at Cho. She seemed slightly scared to be the new ruler of FantasyLand, but there was determination in her eyes, and she was going to be a magnificent ruler.
Jack and I went back to the house. I led him to my room, and we shut the door because Skeeter was still sleeping. We sat on my bed and I called my magic mirror.
"Mirror, tell me how to get to that bird girl."
"You won't like it."
"Just tell me."
"She lives in the OverWorld."
I gasped. The OverWorld?! That was a four hour flight---in fact, it's the way we came for the dragon migration!
Jack looked slightly shocked at the long flight, but was glad and still excited.
"Four hour flight?!" Jack poked my ribs.
"Sorry." I giggled. He poked my ribs again and I inched away from him, but he just came closer.
"Mirror do you have anything to help us?"
Mirror sighed, pretending to be irritated with me. "Well there is one thing."
"And what is it?"
Mirror's glassy surface turned white, until it showed a necklace. It was simple. It had a black string and a single green pendant hung in the middle. If you turned the pendant around, it showed a picture of the bird-girl.
I stuck my hand in and took it out.
"Thanks Mirror!"
"That necklace is enchanted. When you come near the bird girl, that green pendant will glow and turn red."
I wanted to hug Mirror at that point.
"Thank you so much Mirror. I owe you."
I paused.
"Now leave me and my boyfriend alone."
Mirror floated away.
"It's always so interesting when you talk to Mirror. I wish I had a mirror like that."
I smiled. "Maybe you'll become king of FantasyLand. FantasyLand royalty gets mirrors." This was true. And if I married Jack, he'd be the king, with me as queen.
He smiled and kissed my cheek. "We'll see."
We left my room, and went to wake up Skeeter.
We continued about our daily lives, but went to bed early.
We needed a good night's rest, if we were going to fly four hours tomorrow.
"People of FantasyLand!"
I silently cursed myself. I told myself I wouldn't say that...it's too corny.
