Rain

One rainy day a little girl named Selmary was very upset because she couldn't play outside. She kept thinking on how great the world would be without rain for the rest of the day. At night when she fell asleep to the gentle thumps of the rain drops on her window sill, she was visited by a Tree Fairy named Misty. Misty was no bigger than a rose bud, and had long flowing blue black hair. Her eyes were so big she looked like someone spooked her all the time. As Misty whispered winds in Selmary's ear, the little girl woke up.

"Oh my, WTF?" Selmary said in a fright.

"Relax Selmary. I am Misty the Tree Fairy and I am here to grant you a wish" Misty responded.

Selmary thought long and hard. She thought about wishing for a puppy, or a million dollars. Her heart was pumping so fast she almost fainted. Finally after what seemed like an eternity, Selmary made up her mind. She wished for no more rain, just sunny days. Misty gave an evil little grin and said "I had a feeling you would say that so I came prepared." Misty sprinkled some weird dust in Selmary's face that tasted like peaches. Selmary woke up the next day and she thought everything that happened must have been a vivid dream. When she turned on the TV to know if it was still going to rain for the next week, the weather forecast changed. It said that for the next month there would only be sunny days. Months passed by and not a cloud insight. Everything was great for Selmary, the girl who hated rain. Three years passed by and not a single drop of rain fell from the sky. The earth was brown and dry. No green in sight. Dead trees everywhere. What a pitiful sight. People all around were in a panic because the food supplies was low. Baths were allow only once a month. No toilets, no order.

Selmary realized she had been mistaken for banishing rain. She was so sad not to see a grey day that she decided to call onto Misty that night.

"Oh Misty, where are you? How could you let me wish for something so awful? Please bring the rain back. I am drying up. I am dying." Selmary cried.

Suddenly lightening struck her down. She felt fire all over her body, and at that very instant Selmary saw Misty again. Only this time Misty was actually really big. She had become a giant water-filled girl. That is where all of the rain went, inside Misty. Selmary died after seeing this, but she managed to stutter something before passing on. "Let it rain.."

Again Misty with an evil grin in her round blue face took out the fairy dust and sprinkled it on Selmary. And as she did this, water began to fall on the earth, making Misty small again. Everything flourished and their was happiness on earth once more.
Poor Selmary was now dead. Stupid girl Misty thought to herself. She asked Selmary's spirit if she had anymore wishes.

Selmary looked her straight in the eyes and said "I wish for life."

Suddenly Selmary was back in her bed that night three years ago, listening to the sound of rain outside. She thought to herself "What a wonderful world. Misty's a bi%$h!"
