I closed my eyes, expecting myself to hit the hard ground far below, when I felt myself stop and start rising. The necklace fell past us and landed in the water.
I opened my eyes to find that a light Faerie has caught the both of us, saving us from a bad situation.
"Great. Now I owe two people my life." I said
"You're lucky I was out doing quests when Faerieland was surrounded by the barrier." she said. "You two are brave to take on a dark faerie by yourself, but I'll take things from here."
"Can we watch?" Torko asked.
"Torko, this isn't a spectator sport," I said.
"I don't see why not," the light faerie said. "I'll place you on another cloud and shield you from Malanda's sight. That way, you'll be safe."
She did just that, placing us on a cloud and putting a magical shield around us. Then she flew over behind Malanda and threw a ball of light energy, which hit her on the back.
Malanda turned, then said "I see you haven't changed a bit, Melody."
"I guess being trapped in stone hasn't affected your memory," Melody answered.
***
"They know each other?" Torko asked
"I don't see why not. She used to live in Faerieland, before rebelling against Fiora." I answered
"I just hope it doesn't affect anything," he said, as we watched.
***
Malanda charged up and blasted a beam of dark energy right at Melody. She dodged and fired Light energy right back, which was shielded.
They fought back and forth like that, neither one able to really get a good blast on the other.
"You've gotten stronger since I last saw you," Malanda said. "But I'm too strong for you. My power comes from all the darkness in Neopia. The pounded pets, the villans, the scammers, all that feeds my power, and makes me too strong for you to handle.
***
That's when I heard a voice in my head.
"Neopians." the voice said.
I glanced towards Torko, and I could tell he heard it too.
"My name is Melody, and I am a light Faerie." the voice continued. "I am in battle with a dark faerie, and the fate of Neopia depends on the outcome. I need you to focus on the good in Neopia. Love, friendship, charity, and other things like that. Try to focus on that, and give me the power I need to win."
I looked at Torko. He had his eyes closed, and seemed to be concentrating. A yellow light surrounded him, and a ray of yellow energy went right for Melody.
I closed my eyed and started focusing myself. The love I share with my brothers and sister. The friendship I have with my owner. The friends I've met in my life.
I opened my eyes again and saw yellow rays coming from all over Neopia. The record for the most NP donated at the Money Tree was broken, and the battledome went to a virtual standstill.
The rays from all over neopia came together to form a ball of yellow energy above Melody, who took it and fired it at Malanda. She tried to shield, but there was no way she could shield against all of Neopia.
Her body stiffened and turned back to stone. Then her body fell into the water with a mighty splash.
The barrier around Faerieland dissapeared, and Faeries from all diffrent alignments flew up to congraduate Melody.
A few minutes later, I was atanding in the throne room with Torko and Melody.
"Sunshine and Torko, you two have displayed great courage taking on Malanda by yourself," Fiora said. "That kind of courage should not go unrewarded."
With a wave of her hand, two bags appeared next to us, each with 100,000 NP.
"Melody," Fiora continued "For defeating Malanda and saving Neopia, I have decided to promote you to Uber Light Faerie."
Melody gasped in surprise, and didn't know what to say for a moment.
"Th...Thank you." she stammered
As Torko and I left, Torko said "You want to go somewhere with me?"
I blushed. He really was cute.
"Are you sure you don't mind that i'm a boring yellow color?" I asked
"I'm colorblind right now. The only thing I see is you." he said
I smiled. I may not be faerie, but somehow, that doesn't matter.
The End
