warnings: none.
author’s notes: Mel’s personality is crybaby/sweet. Him being a crybaby is only because he’s still really young. And the sweet part is because that’s what his name translates to. Plus, all his friends and himself are 10 years old or younger.
“Bye mom” Mel said quickly racing out of the house into to the grassy green forest across the way. Today Mel was on a mission to find the Kraft Wizard. Even though he doesn’t really know if they really exist. All the neighborhood kids swear that this majestical being does and that you have to go to a specific part of the woods to see them. Bring Kraft macaroni as a peace offering. Mel started to slow down his pace as he got to the spot. He pulled his backpack off and slowly took the macaroni box out. He placed in the center of the grass were the sun hit it straight on. Mel picked himself up and dashed to the bushes behind him. Watching the dark blue box.....
It’s been about 10 min since he placed the box down. Mel was starting to lose hope and worried if the local kids were just picking on him for being so naive. Tears started to run down his face. He felt so dumb that he believed them again. But as he felt as if all hopes were lost, he heard talking. Mel wiped his tears and pull his head out of the bushes. He gasped as he saw a short darkskin girl with big kinky Locs in her hair. Her glasses were circler and the clothes she wore were baggy. She layered a long sleeve shirt over a black t-shirt that said “Kraft Wizard” on the front. The other girl she was talking to was fair skinned and had put her blonde hair in a donut bun. She was wearing all pink with glittery wings strapped to her back like a backpack. Mel was memorized by them. He felt as if they had some other worldly power coming off of them.
“Heyy Krafty look someone left you some of your favorite” the blonde exclaimed pointing to the dark blue box on the ground. Kraft had said nothing while walking towards the box. she bent over and picked it up. while staring at the box a smile ascended on to her face. “Thank you, Mel”. He instantly turned around nervously. He hopes she didn’t know where he was but when he turned to look at kraft and the blondies where abouts she stared at him was a smile on her face. Giving him a nod before her and the fairy left. Watching the disappear back into the forest.
Mel jumped out of the bush with leaves still in his hair. He just ran back into his neighborhood. Excitedly screaming for all the kids to come here and stating, “You guys wouldn’t believe who I just met!”
