Chronicles of Eden - Act V
ask?”
    Kroanette growled heavily at the fairy before Daniel walked over and held out his hand. The centaur glanced to him then reluctantly set Pip down on his palm, the fairy looking to him curiously as he smiled weakly at the tiny monster.
    “Pip, listen,” he gently said. “This has been a very… eventful encounter. I’m glad we got to meet you, I really am, but we do have to be leaving now. So we’re just going to go, alright?”
    “Go?” Pip asked sadly as she fluttered up in the air in front of him. “But you haven’t given me your seed yet. Pretty please? Just a few drops?”
    “No, we won’t be doing that,” Daniel said shaking his head. “I’m sorry, but we really do have to go now. But thank you very much for introducing yourself and letting us get to know you.”
    “No fair,” Pip pouted. “I answered all your questions and now you’re just going to leave me, and you didn’t even answer my one question either.”
    “Your question?”
    “Yeah, I asked you first, remember? You said you were just the worst, and I asked the worst what. You never answered me.”
    “Oh,” Daniel said looking down with remorse. “I was talking about myself, and how weak I am.”
    “Daniel, stop saying that,” Alyssa pleaded.
    “You’re not weak, why would you say that?” Triska asked.
    “Because I’m powerless to protect you all,” Daniel said looking around at his girls. “I couldn’t manage to use a weapon like you all could, and even trying again and again with this I can’t get a hold of using any magic either. I’m just the worst guy to take care of you.”
    “Daniel,” Specca huffed with her hands at her hips. “Don’t you dare say such things. We love you for who you are and all that you’ve done for us. You’re perfect just the way you are.”
    Squeak nodded and waved her hand around while squeaking something, with Daniel watching her with a worried smile before looking down and shaking his head.
    “I appreciate that, but I still want to be able to take care of all of you in every way possible. If I could only get a hold of what Alyssa has been teaching me, then maybe I could learn to use even the simplest of magic spells to protect you girls like I wanted to.”
    “Daniel,” Triska softly said. “You don’t need to do that for us, really.”
    “So that’s what you’re the worst at?” Pip asked curiously. “Not being able to use magic?”
    “Yeah, I guess you could say that,” Daniel reasoned with a small shrug.
    “Daniel, it’ll be alright,” Alyssa tried to reassure him with. “You’ll get the hang of it eventually. These things take time for humans. You can’t learn how to use magic overnight after all.”
    “I could help you use magic overnight,” Pip said holding a hand up.
    The group looked to her with confusion as she once again kept her hand up as if wishing to be called upon. After a while she held her arm with her other hand while straining to hold it up higher, with the group watching with blank expressions as she whined and waved her hand around at Daniel.
    “Did you hear me?” she asked. “I said I could help you, I really can.”
    “Pip, that’s nice you want to help me, but…” Daniel said before looking away with a sigh.
    “But I can, it’s true.”
    “How could you possibly help him use magic overnight?” Alyssa scoffed.
    “I could!” Pip whined while hopping up and down on Daniel’s hand. “I could, I could, I could!”
    “How?” Specca inquired.
    “First I want you to promise you will give me your seed,” Pip declared while pointing to Daniel with a stern expression. “Promise me that and then I’ll help you use magic tonight.”
    “Tonight?” he questioned with a raised eyebrow.
    “To-night,” Pip assured with a nod.
    “That’s not possible,” Specca said shaking her head.
    “Yes it is!”
    “No, it’s not,” Alyssa argued. “He can’t be expected to perform complete spells by the end of the day.”
    “Yes he
