21

I walked out of my shack and before going to the "Mystery Garden" I went over to Theo's house to explain to his mother about what happened about his son not returning home.

I knocked on the door at 6:00am, hoping they would be awake. After a few minutes Reyna swinged the door open and smiled.

"Hi Reyna I---" I said but getting cut off when Reyna said,

"Where's Theo?"

"Actually that's what I wanted to talk about." I said nervously.

"Come in we will talk over a cup of coffee."

"Thank you."

I walked inside and took a seat on long dining table where I ate for breakfast, the last time I was here.

Reyna gave me a large cup of coffee and settled down beside me.

"So tell me, Gabriela what's going on?" Her smile turned into a frown.

"Reyna, will you believe me no matter what I say?"

"Of course. You're like my very own when I first met you.

"Thank you. Ok so what really happen is that I am not human."

"You're not human, so what are you?"

"I am a princess of fire fairies. And the day when Theo said he was going for a walk at 6:00 in the morning, he was actually going with me to a place called the Mystery Garden where mythical creatures live, according to the legend."

"But isn't Theo afraid of those things?"

"Yes he is, but I thought him how not to be afraid them."

"Wow! No wonder he talks about how wonderful you are all day."

I flushed with embarrassment. Theo talks about me that much?

"That's sweet of him. But the reason he is not here, is that..."

"Please Gabriela, tell me."

"Well him, Luna and Lucas got captured by Alex, the head of dead storms." I forced out and felt a tear stream down the side of my cheeks.

"A dead storm?"

"Yes. A person that kills fairies from my world."

"Will they b-be alright?" Reyna sounded hurt.

"Of course they will and I will make sure they are ok because I am going to find them with my gardian now."

"Oh, Gabriela thank you for telling me this. I was worried about Theo last night and hoping you were alright too."

"Reyna, will you do me a favor please?"

"Anything, dear."

"Will you tell Luna and Lucas's parents too."

"No problem. I will make them believe no matter how much it takes."

"Thanks again."

"No worries. Be safe ok." Reyna said giving me a comforting hug and closed the door behind me.
