"Gotcha!"
If not for her tiny size, the huge palm of the human might have ensnared her. Luckily, Nel's four-inch form slipped through his hand like butter. Flitting her wings to spray off the putrid human sweat, Nel planned her mode of attack. Go around the head and buzz in his ear? Cliche, but do-able. Scratch his eyes out? More effective.

Instantly she sprung up to reach at it, but the human moved away.
"Alive! Wow, a real, living pixie! And everyone told me I was a fraud... I'll show them, won't I? Me and my new..."
