Chapter 10 The Lunatic and the Ginger

Ginger fairy's pov

Dear readers

You must be a bit confused, why I knew the Ice fairy although I have never seen her.

It's easy: I hid myself behind a wall.

A detective will do everything to get as much information as possible. It's only logical to hide behind a wall and let the person talk and let her or him say, what they want to say. It's easier than putting the person under pressure or to get it out of her or his nose. In the end they will become stubborn and don't say anything.

To eavesdrop on the Ice Fairy was easy enough. But if you don't cancel the psychic connection while talking about stuff you don't want anyone else to hear, it's simply foolish.

The phone fairy and the red queen wholeheartedly talked about the two other underground queens(Yellow queen and blue queen). The red royalty forbade the phone fairy to tell them or the Ice fairy anything.

I suspect that the red queen wants to create her new own kingdom in Pixie Hollow. But this is only a theory.

They talked about other stuff too, but I don't want to spoil your fun when you read the story.

It startled me when the Ice fairy suddenly returned. She is a pretty sneaky brat.

I became really interested in the different expressions she went through.

I know, I know, it's really uncommon to have fun in studying peoples expression. But this makes me a good (when I am allowed to say this) detective.

My hic up began when she stopped at the angry face.

It was really unplesant when she knocked me onto the floor.

You, reader, yourself will know, how crazy children can drive you. This girl really needs a spanking! At the second thought, it would look really weird when a grown woman would spank another...

A grown woman, who is centuries younger than yourself.....

Fairy Anatomy... A mystery in itself.

Another thing I wanted to mention, dear reader:

Don't judge me because I got high. It normally hardly ever happens, but this black and white spoiled kid made me hyperventilate.

My motto is: Enjoyment in moderation.

Thank you for your understanding.

Yours Ginger Fairy

In the royal bedroom

*snore ** snore ** loud snore *

I get startled by my own snoring and look around me. One side of my hair stands in all directions, the other is untouched.

When I don't see anyone I lay back into my bed. After a while I get up.

* yawn *

My mouth tastes like sandpaper.

* smack * * smack *

What a crazy trip: I fantasized about writing a letter to an audience.

My eyes are swollen so that I nearly can't see anything. The pipe lies besides me on the bedside table.

The whole sleeping room looks like a torture chamber. Toys are on the right and left side. In front of the bed is a table to strap a person on. It's nothing new since I saw the box with the s&m toys.

I take my pipe and put my mixture in it.

What should I do next?

I don't know how long I was out but I am sure that the Ice Fairy isn't in the library any more

It wouldn't be possible to talk with her anyway...... Let's look for the crazy geezer.

I leave the castle and go to the candy town. There gingerbread man takes me to the only bar in town.

At the bar sits the deeply depressed old man. He takes a small glance at me and then falls back into his melancholy. A big jug with coco stands in front of him. I sit down on the bar stool beside him and sign the soldier in front of me to get the same.

(ginger fairy)

“Your wife?...

I told you that this woman is nothing but trouble.”

I begin stuffing my pipe.

(crazy geezer)

“You are up?"

An astonished face with tears and heavy bags is being revealed to me, but it soon changes into a tortured expression and buries itself in the geezers hands.

(crazy geezer)"What do you know?”

(ginger fairy)

“I know that being alone with her always gave you a bad time. You know it's not the first time I see you sitting here in front of a big jug.”

(crazy geezer)

“She has her faults but who hasn't any?”

(ginger fairy)

“What did she do now?”

(crazy geezer)

“Do you know Wilson?”

(ginger fairy)

“You mean your Computer? Don't say any more.... I understand.”

The crazy geezer breaks out in tears.

(ginger fairy)

“You, your wife and wilson.”

A sad smile plays around my lips.

I shake my head. The jug is placed in front of me.

I take a big sip. Cream is around my mouth. I wipe it with my coat away.

(ginger fairy)

“You know, I have always hated her for what she is doing to you. She shows me how far you are gone from the one you were before.”

(crazy geezer)

“I know you don't like her, red, but it's love.

…....

You wouldn't understand.”

(ginger fairy)

“You don't think I know what it means to love someone?

(crazy geezer)

“Do you?”

(ginger fairy)

I loved and how I loved! I loved a man 500 years ago. A great man, who sacrificed everything to keep us save.”

(crazy geezer)

“So you aren't as cold as I thought you are. I always imagined you to have a heart of ice.”

(ginger fairy)

“The outside doesn't mirror the inside. You know?

....

Tell me: Why do you love her? Do you know that she is only an alter ego of yourself?”

(crazy geezer)

“* sarcastic Ha * What are you talking about 'alter ego'?

Hm, why do I love her? I love that she is always looking out for everyone and that it never gets boring with her.......besides she always seems to know exactly what I want.”

My eyes become glassier the more he talks. In the end I stop listening to him

and swallow my sadness with every breath on the pipe. After a while it bursts out of me:

(ginger fairy)

“Why? Why? Why did you choose eternity by yourself and didn't let me join you?”

(crazy geezer)

“How could I let the person I loved most at the time let me join in this lonely task?”

(ginger fairy)

“But I wouldn't have needed anyone else. I wanted to spend my whole live with you.”

(crazy geezer)

“Hahaha, a young fairy like you with a old man like me. I wouldn't be able to forgive myself besides everyone else would go crazy about it.”

(ginger fairy)

“At the time you weren't old. Besides you won't have to think about 'everyone else' any more because they won't be able to raise any complaint for a long time.”

(crazy geezer)

“What are you talking about?”

(ginger fairy)

“Your cookie train-cat destroyed the controls. No one will get up any time soon.”

(crazy geezer)

“What?! How did this happen? I even build fail saves for the fail saves.”

His eyes open wide.

(Ginger fairy)

“Don't worry. Your friend the Ice Fairy found a solution. She found you a light fairy”

His jaw drops

(crazy geezer)

“How?.......When?...... Really?”

A broad smile takes over his facial expression.

We sat there the whole evening plotting how to unfreeze our land and how to make countermeasures against the red, yellow or blue queen.
