"I'm going to leave something with you for your protection," said Leonard
"What do you mean?" Said Peter
As he drew near, Peter saw that it was a small bird. Small but extraordinarily beautiful, its body and wings a startling emrald green, its delicate, darting head a brilliant summer daisy yellow.
"Perfect," Said Leonard. "If I may?"
He held out his left hand and the hunter gently placed the bird on his palm. Leonard gently curled his fingers around the delicate creature. With his right hand he reached into his coat pocket and pulled out th egolden sack. He loosened the draw string carefully placed the bird inside then pulled the draw string tight again and let the sack rest on his palm. For a full minute nothing happened everyone stared at the sack. Waiting. And then they heard it.
"Bells!" said Alf. "It's the bells!"
It was coming from the sack but it felt as though it was in the air all around them. A lovely, delicate, tinkling sound. A happy sound, a mischievous sound. And Peter understood it. He stared at the sack, his eyes wide.
"Thats right" said Leonard, smiling. "Shes talking to you"
"But who is?" said Peter
"She is," said Leonard, as he loosened the drawstring and pulled the golden sack down. There, standing on Leonards palm looking directly at Peter oblivious to the gasps of the boys was....
"Its a fairy!" said Peter
"Yes," said Leonard or at least thats the name thats been given to theese creatures so we'll call her that. Peter, shes your fairy and she'll watch over you.
The fairy, in a shimmer of gold sprang, from Leonards hand and darted to Peter flittering around his head and filling his ears with her magical bell sounds.
"Those are my friends," Peter said
"Who are you talking to?" said James
"The fairy!" said Peter, don't you hear her talking?
No," said James "just the bells" The fairy darted over to Molly, circled her head twice and darted back to Peter
"Yes," said Peter, "thats Molly." more bell sounds
"No she's not!" said Peter
"What did she call me?" asked Molly
"Oh nothing," said Peter
Leonard laughed. "Looks like you've got a jealous fairy!" he said. "She'll be a handfull that one....but she'll watch over you Peter. Thats her job"
