Silly little drabble about @localicecreambiter's fairy four swords AU!!

Goddesses above, Blue is getting frustrated. This discussion with the local Great Fairy has gone absolutely nowhere. Every time the others try and get a straight answer out of her, she speaks in riddles and dodges their questions. Frankly, Blue is about to snap.

"Please, Miss Great Fairy, can't you just tell us where this treasure is located?" Red asks for the fifth time, visibly stressed.

The Great Fairy does a little dance and looks away.

"I told you! It is over the bridge and through the pebbles and beyond the rainbows!"

That is IT.

"Gods DAMN IT, woman! Can't you drop your shitty riddles and give us a straight answer?!" Blue snaps, shouting at the fairy.

There's a beat of silence where even Blue looks shocked at his own words. Blue goes to apologize, but before he can get the words out-

"You BRUTE! How dare you speak to a Great Fairy that way! Perhaps you'll learn a thing or two when you walk in another's shoes!"

Her hands begin to glow, but just as Green is yelling at them to get out of the way, a blast of pure fae magic hits, and Blue's vision goes dark.

---

Green watches in horror as the ball of magic hits Blue, Red and Vio, none of whom managed to get out of the way in time. He shields his eyes from the spell's bright glow, then feels his jaw drop when the light, along with the Great Fairy, disappears.

Laying on the ground unconscious are three, tiny fairies in even tinier tunics and hats.

He and Shadow immediately drop to their knees, carefully poking at the little forms on the floor.

"Vivi? Love, can you hear me?" Shadow says worriedly, scooping Vio into one hand and gently prodding at Vio with a finger. A soft groan is heard, and then Vio's eyes are fluttering open, the other two following soon after.

"What... what happened?" Vio asks, trying to stand but failing as a strange weight on his back makes him lose his balance. He turns his head and is met with the sight of golden, semi-transparent fairy wings emerging from his shoulder blades. He scrambles to his feet- his tiny, tiny feet, now that he's looking properly- and realizes that Blue and Red are coming to the same realization.

"Oh my gosh, are we FAIRIES??" Red exclaims delightedly, twisting around to get a good look at his wings which are a shimmering white with pale blue accents.

Blue looks slightly mortified, watching his strawberry pink wings flutter reflexively on his back, speechless.

Vio just sighs.

It's going to be a long day.
