Faerie Lessons

It wouldn't be until the year following after Kaitan graduated high school that he would see Feir again while on a graduation trip in New York City. Kaitan had been waiting for the sign to change to walk so that he could walk across the street when he saw Feir already on the other side of the crosswalk and he was staring at him. “FEIR!” Kaitan cried out, and with that the chase was on.

Kaitan didn't wait for the sign to change as he ran over to the other side of the street to get to him, his action caused cars to honk at him or come to a screeching halt to avoid hitting him, but Kaitan didn't care. He chased him for an hour not once stopping to catch his breath, and then he finally caught him in Central Park Standing a little way off with a far off look in his eyes.

Kaitan took a moment to catch his breath his knees bent and hands resting on them as he panted. He stood up straight and he came face to face with Feir. Apparently he had come closer to him when he was trying tried to get his breathing under control. Kaitan gasped when he stood up and got a good look at Feir’s appearance. Feir’s skin had become inhumanly pale, and his shoulder length black hair was gone, replaced by many different shades of blue. A distraught look was etched over his face.

When Kaitan saw that look on Feir’s face his anger ebbed away to be replaced with concern. Kaitan raised a hand out to touch his long lost friend’s cheek, in a way he was using concern as an excuse to touch him. A few minutes elapsed without either of the males saying a word to each other before Feir removed Kaitan’s hand from his face.

Kaitan let his arm fall back to his side, and he shifted his weight from side to side as he stood there on the side walk waiting for his friend to say something.

“Listen..I don’t have enough time to explain what has happened to me this past year, so...”, Feir trailed off.

Kaitan jumped a foot back in surprise at the lack of emotion on Feir’s face, and tone in his voice. Kaitan wiped the surprised look off his face and replaced it with a serious look. “Feir, why did you leave without telling me anything?”.

“I don’t have time to explain!, they’re going to take me back!, They’ll be here soon...” Feir

“Who’s going to take you back?” Kaitan narrowed his eyes at everyone that passed him and Feir.

“The faeries!”, Feir glanced over his shoulder and narrowed his eyes.

“What the hell?, quit the crap about fairy’s they’re not real, fairy’s, and just tell me straight out why you disappeared for a whole entire year without trying to contact me”, Kaitan glared at him.

“What the hell, Feir grow up ‘fairy’s don’t exist!”, Kaitan hissed at his friend.

“They’re here!, Kaitan can you see them?”, Feir turned around to point at a tree that was in a near by park.

“No I can’t see them, ‘faeries’ are not real!, Kaitan rolled his eyes at his friend, he was starting to lose his patience with him. And for the record, no one’s even near that tree”.

Feir glared at Kaitan, “I should have known that you wouldn’t be able to-“, Feir stopped mid-sentence.

“For the last time of course I wouldn’t be able to see them, why? Because faeries do not exist nor will they ever exist!.”

“You know what, never mind!”, Feir’s glare intensified before he tool off running. Whether or not Feir was running from Kaitan, or if he really was running away from faeries, Kaitan didn’t know.

“Maybe I should have tried listening to him instead of being a total and utter jack ass”, Kaitan dropped his head down in guilt.

“I’ll try looking for Feir again later. It’s about time I went back to the hotel, so might as well leave there’s no reason to stay here”, Kaitan walked back to the hotel.
As soon as Kaitan arrived back to the hotel he found a note under the door of his room. “What the heck is this?”. Kaitan plopped down on his bed and opened the letter to read it. In messy handwriting was a note written by Feir.

Kaitan, look I’m sorry about acting so jumpy with you. I’m also sorry that I left for a whole year without telling you anything, but it wasn’t my fault- I was taken away. Remember that one day when I asked you if you believed in faeries? Well, I can see them and when they found out that I could see them they started talking to me, and asking me to come with them. Every single time I refused them, but that time that I didn’t meet you at my locker they decided to kidnap me. Little did It was my mistake, I didn’t know the rules until now, but I was supposed to ignore them and pretend I couldn’t hear them, and because I let them know I could see them it sealed my fate. Today I some how managed to escape from them, and that’s we were able to see each other again. I was able to find out where you were staying an-.

Kaitan paused form reading the letter, “How the hell did he manage to find my hotel room, and get here before me?”, he frowned. *There’s something weird about this*, Kaitan went back to reading the letter.

Summon a faerie named Mikala and draw up a contract with him, and find me. You’ll get all your answers to your questions that I assume you have. Love~Feir~.

“Normally I’d be delighted at the fact that Feir signed his name and used the word love, but something about this letter is weird...but what though?”, Kaitan frowned.

“Well, maybe I’ll give a shot at believing that this letter isn’t a load of baloney and do as Feir instructed. At any rate if this is just a game, then I’ll still be able to get answers out of him if I go along with it”, Kaitan sighed and ran his fingers through his hair.

“Now how do I go about doing this?”, Kaitan placed a hand under his chin in thought. A few minutes later Kaitan decided that he’d research on the internet how to summon a ‘faerie’.

After bout a day and half’s worth of searching the internet, Kaitan obtained the information he was looking for and went right to work on summoning this ‘Mikala’ character. Kaitan sprinkled salt in a circle in the middle of his hotel room, sat down Indian style, and lit up incense that he bought at a nearby store. Apparently the salt that he had drawn a circle with was a protective circle that would protect him from being spirited away by the faerie, and the incense was a amplifier that would act to help draw out the faerie, along with the potion that Kaitan had concocted that would allow him to see the faerie that would appear before his eyes when he called out it’s name three times.

“Alright let’s get this ‘game started shall I?”, Kaitan eyed the glass that held the potion that he had made. He picked up the glass and lifted it up to his nose to sniff it. He regretted the action a moment later when he almost dropped it in horror at the smell.

“It smells like garbage!, and if it smells like garbage it probably tastes like garbage”, Kaitan eyed the drink in his hand wearily before taking a swig of it. “Gah, I’m going to die and it’s all Feir’s fault!”, Kaitan dropped the glass and the potion spilled all over the floor.

Rubbing his throat Kaitan inwardly blanched when he looked at the white carpet that was now stained thanks to the potion he had dropped. ‘They’re going to charge me for that”, he muttered.

“What ever”, Kaitan sighed. “Time to get back to this stupid game.” He called out the faerie’s name three times.

“Mikala. Mikala. Mikala”, Kaitan waited for something to happen. A few minutes passed by without anything happen.

“Nothing is happening, this is a load of bullshit. I should have known Feir was pulling my leg. After all faeries are not re-“ Kaitan stopped his rant when he noticed a outline of a person appear before him just outside the protective circle he was in.

“What the fuck is that!”, Kaitan rubbed his eyes with his hands to make sure he wasn’t seeing things. When he removed his hands from his face, his eyes widened in surprise. In front of him was a male about nineteen years old, inhuman looking forest green eyes with cat like slits, pale creamy skin, long wavy brown hair, and slightly pointed ears. Besides the eyes and ears this guy could pass for human. The guy was wearing a white shirt with blue jeans and an orange button up shirt that he left unbuttoned.
“Who the hell are you?.”....

KOD/BKL:that's it for now, and as an after thought there's three possible love interests. I've already introduced Feir, and you've gotten a peak at Mikala, so the last one to reveal themself will be a guy named Crai. *sighs* nothing explict will happen until a few chapters into it...
