Twins

The strange voice slowly ascended out of the water and when it came out Jacob was able to remember the description written about it in the book , and it accurately fit the fairy.

The fairy had spoken to them in a language which they could both understand, so the two individuals were looking at the fairy with excited eyes as their efforts had not gone in vain.

The fairy observed the two individuals in front of it.

Even though he was angry ,a strange feeling came from the two individuals in front of him.

The fairy could feel the strange energy he felt from a familiar individual in one brimming with life and he could feel the power of breaking death itself inside another, and he found a link between the two , a link of a very strong soul bond.

Twins are considered unlucky and lucky in different cultures, as every twins shared a strong invisible bond between them, a split in their soul intertwining to a soul bond of the highest order, for they were two individuals yet made from a single soul.

That is why twins were always special, especially identical twins. This was a magical truth existing in this world.

'This is neither fate nor destiny , But I am sure these two are the ones who were mentioned in the prophecy, for I a chosen one can feel it .

The power which was last described by the oldest scribes about Apollo and Artemis ,who broke themselves away from the prophecy , I can feel the same power mentioned in the scrolls coming from these two.

Was this the reason that I was made to stay on this lonely spring , alone for the centuries by the ancient one?

Was it a coincidence that my friend wanted me to guard his treasure and give it to the next chosen one of his kind?

After seeing these two infront of me , I can't think that it was a coincidence. ',The fairy was deep in thought when it saw the two individuals standing in front of it.

Jacob and James were looking at the fairy dazed at how beautiful it was, it had a blue body a pair of small glittering wings, green eyes and a small tuft of blond and slightly silver hair placed perfectly on the middle of its head, it also had pointed teeth and whenever it got angry a small hue of red appeared in its beautiful green eyes.

The angry fit and the loud strange voice of the fairy didn't match the small size of the fairy ,and it was funny.

Jacob remembered the paragraph that led him here ,it was mentioned in the geography book below some major rivers ,forests and volcanoes which were marked on a map.

"Springs ,geysers, volcanoes and even some forests are sometimes created by fairies ,and they are strange lone existences in the lands of trulyn, for very less information is known about them.

Sometimes in arid and dry regions , elders of the land search for the nearest source of water which has not dried down in the dry season (which shows a presence of fairy) and call and attract the fairy of the water source and request it to move the water source to the more populated parts of their lands, so that people may be able to use the water.

The fairy accepts their request if they make its wish come true , for every one knows the wish of the gentle water fairies are always simple and has a deeper meaning to it." and below it was a brief description of how an fairy would have looked like.

So Jacob concluded that an oasis must be a source of water where they can find a fairy as it is the only source of water available in a desert , even in very dry seasons.

But never did Jacob think that the beautiful gentle water fairy mentioned in the book would be having anger issues.

James was looking at the fairy bewildered as his brother's plan had actually succeeded without any problems.

The fairy had made its decision, after deep thinking it had finally understood the purpose in it's life , the truth of the voice which led him here and the reason for creating the spring for it's slumber in this land, so before both the individuals could speak again, it started speaking.

"I don't know for what request you have awakened me from my deep sleep, but I will lay my wish before you individuals.

I wish to make you two my slaves for two years to teach you some good manners, and I want you two to guard my treasure with your lives',

'What?',both exclaimed after hearing the absurd wish of the water fairy.

The two brothers were the princes of Malodor kingdom, if they became a slave to a fairy it would bring lot of problems to the kingdom.

'Mr. Omen , Should we sign a slave contract and mark ourselves, We are the princes of kingdom Malodor ,it will.....', James started asking the fairy questions after hearing the horrendous wish.

Before James could complete his conversation the fairy spoke again,

'I don't need you both to sign a slave contract, but I need you to accept me as your master and do my bidding for two years.

Don't worry I won't ask you to do anything to harm you and your kingdom.

But you must obey me at all costs , otherwise your request would be revoked.'

Jacob kept silent from the start till the end of the conversation as he processed the words of the fairy , He was thinking whether it would affect his plans in any way, after he found out that it would not affect his plans in any way ,he asked a question.

'Mr.Owen what is the treasure which you wanted us to guard?',asked Jacob as the fairy had asked to guard something with their life on line.

'It's just a treasure chest, which I had agreed to guard all these years and give it to it's chosen owners ,

But as you can see I have grown a bit old and I can't spend my time travelling this world in order to give the chest to the ones it chooses.

So consider it a gift from me which can't be opened until it is given to its chosen owner, so guard this with your lives till you find the owner of the treasure chest.'

"So do you both agree to my wish",asked the fairy showing them its silver hair trying to show that it was too old .

Jacob and James looked at each other,and talked regarding this for sometime and both of them came to a conclusion and they agreed to the fairy.

'Good choice brats , now state your request',said the fairy with a sly smile on its face showing its pointed teeth.
