196_Light

 

There was once a nymph and a fairy living out in the wilds of the city.

The nymph was named, Friedrich, and the fairy was named, Light.

They carried each other from town to town and were hardly visible to people except to children. Who caught glimpses of Light’s wings flying above them granting them wishes, and Friedrich played his horn, as he marched behind them?

Years later, their fairy dust disappeared, and they were visible to the entire world.

It was 06:00am on Thursday 22nd November 1999, they had to get across town to stop a Wizard causing more damage someone they had granted a wish to do magic and unfortunately, he took it for granted and left people for dead and took all their money.

They arrived at Block 4, flat 25, 52nd Avenue, he was outside painting the front door red.

“Ah I see,” said Friedrich.

“You have finally given in.” He was coming to the end of his life.

Light gave him a candle.

“Please never take our magic for granted, light this and pray for forgiveness from the Father.”

“Yes, OK,” said a disgruntled wizard.

They left him there and skipped home.

They took lunch and had a nap. There was a concert on at the local bar they planned to enjoy. They took money in exchange for the candle they had made for the wizard.

“This could be dirty money? Friedrich, I hope we are clean tonight?”

“We’ll be fine!” said Friedrich.

They saw the jazz band arrive and a sultry Black princess get up on stage with the most beautiful tone.

Friedrich hummed along and danced with Light.

“I think I am in love!” he said.

“With whom, me?” said Light.

“No, the Black princess on stage.”

She sang all night:

          “When we are gone, we begin again in the heavenly Father’s arms,

When we are gone, we see our karma calm once more and take ourselves to him as children.”

“I’ll talk to her once this last song is over!”

The wizard had finished painting the house red, he lit the candle and a Godly voice said: “The Nymph is calm and rich, good and money.”

He set off for the bar.

“You’re never forgiven unless you give him his worth.” Said God.

The princess sat down at the bar, and Friedrich sat with her, he went to touch her bosom, as she leaned over.

“Sorry, I’m in love!” He spoke.

“Hey?”

“You are a nymph are you not? Making wizards, playing that horn, and well they just kill over money.”

“Oh God, I am sorry, we thought a wizard made magic like us?!”

“Not in this day and age my dear!”

“Ah – I’ll go!”

“You better make a wrong a right!” said the princess.

The wizard approached Friedrich in the bar and fell to the floor.

“Light I think he is dead.”

“Can’t you see, we are invisible again, because they all know the truth.”

“Ah, I see.” said Friedrich.

She told you what had happened, now let us run away!

“But I just want to fall in love with the princess!”

They ran and ran and ran to the water’s edge.

“Do we jump Light?”

The princess had run after them.

“Where are you?” She hollered.

“Here!” they both said.

“Who killed the wizard?”

“Only the truth,” said Light.

 And she took off in the wind, and flew away, back to the heavens.

The princess felt a kiss, from Friedrich and he came alive!

“Now then, why don’t we fall in love, and you come and play your horn for real for me, this time Friedrich.”

“I would love to play for you and Light, my princess!”

 

THE END
