Winter Fairy
First Meeting
It was during winter, everything was covered in white - bluish snow.Everyone was walking around the town wearing their most thick coats to avoid frost bites
A group of children decided to walk on the frozen river and some wanted to skate above it letting the minimum warmth of sun light touch their cheeks.
Jewel
Girl: Come on! Don't be afraid .... The ice on the river is so thick... It could handle our weight...
Y/N
Are you sure? They said this river is bad luck and hates children who play carelessly on it.
Jewel
That's just a rumour! (giggles)
Y/N's friend pulled her in the center of the river while she was trying to steady her shaky legs, worrying that something bad might happen to them.
Jewel
See? Try to skate now. You can do it!
Her worries washed away as she enjoys sliding around the river, little did she know that she's approaching a part of the river that is fragile and ready to crack.
Jewel
Y/N!!! Don't go far away!
Y/N
(smiles) I'm fine don't worry!
She slides another one until the ice breaks instantly... She dropped her body under the ice cold water and shouting her lungs for help...
Y/N
(chokes ) Some.... one ... Pls.. Help... Me!!!
Her lower body starts to feel numb also she starts to have a difficulty in breathing since the freezing water is burning her chest.
Incident
The people around the river saw the situation and hurriedly calls for help, while Y/N slowly lost her energy.
The water sorrounding suddenly freeze, stopping here to sink down the hole, not until she felt someone grab her body lifting her up.
Y/N
Thank...you..(gasping for air) who...are you?
Based on the blurry figure she could tell it was a man,but the person walks away
Y/N
So cold ...(coughing persistently) Thank you so much mister.
After that incident, a rescuer rushed to Y/N while trying not to make big cracks on the river. Someone check the hole.
Student 1
Hey, look at this, there's only a frozen hole in the river that look like a bag sack... also there was no crack on it.. how the hell it happened?... I thought the girl sunk below (he said loudly)
They begin to wonder what rare happened at the river having frozen hole but the river's surface is flat during the winter.
Student 2
Little girl, your lucky that your saved
Y/N
(whispers to herself) His hand... it's so cold...

Student 1
(nudge) Hey shut your big mouth, before professor Y/N would lower your grades.
Y/N smiles at her student's reaction and face them.
Y/N
Let's put it this way, folklorist have suggested that their actual origin lies in religious belief with the advent of Christianity.
Y/N
Fairies might exist but was needed on book of any Enoch with creatures such as Behemoths and fallen angels.
Y/N
It was before one of the chapters in the bible, keeping holiness of the bible leaving only Jesus Christ as only high form of Divinity and power.
The student whispers and nodded.
Y/N
