Sandra stared at the portal for a few minutes, almost fixated. Something inside her is telling her to go through, but another part of her is telling her to stay.
"I knew this day would come soon." A familiar voice behind Sandra said.
Sandra turned around to see Amy behind her. "What is this?" The enchanted young woman asked her fairy keeper.
"Your test." Amy answered.
"I don't understand. What test?"
"You see, this is the portal to the human realm, where you originally came from." It was hard for Sandra to remember, but she knew Amy was telling the truth. "You have a choice now; return to the human world and be purged of the fairy magic that has built up within you all these years, or remain and be purged of your remaining humanity."
"Purged of my humanity, does that mean..."
Amy nodded. "You will finally complete your transformation into a fairy. Decide quickly, for time is not on your side."
The thought of being purged of her humanity made the side wanting to enter all the stronger; but so, too, did the promise of becoming a full-fledged fairy reinforce her desire to remain. The conflict in her mind, coupled with the pressure of making a decision did not help her out as her mind was a firestorm of thoughts and feelings.
