Disclaimer: I don't own Winx Club. If I did Nabu would still be alive, season two would make sense, and Roxy would be a major character in season five.

Amelia gazed up at the gates of her new school. Alfea! Where the famous Winx Club graduated from, and now taught. Their exploits were legendary. They had brought magic back to not one but two worlds, saved the magic dimension more times than anyone cared to count, and reached fairy levels most only dreamed about. And now they were the most famous teachers in the realm of Magix, with the possible exception of Headmistress Faragonda.

The doors opened and she stepped into the courtyard. Other young fairies milled about the quad, chatting with friends. Just inside the gates stood the head of discipline, Tecna. Everyone had been astonished when the old head of discipline, the irascible Griselda, had stepped down three years ago. Now Tecna was in charge of discipline. Nothing got past her and her army of technological minions. But, she was a lot less inflexible than Griselda was, and on a few occasions she'd turned a blind eye to some minor, and some not so minor, infractions.

"Greetings Professor Tecna, I'm here for my first year at Alfea."

"And your name is?"

"Amelia, from the planet Oppositus."

A string of numbers seemed to flash through Tecna's eyes as she accessed the school's records.

"Ah yes. Amelia. Age sixteen. Planet Oppositus. Fairy of Earth and Sky. Daughter of Aurena and Terro. Welcome to Alfea."

"Um, yes, that's me. Thank you."

"You're welcome." Tecna said as she turned to the next fairy in line.

Amelia wandered the courtyard aimlessly, hoping to meet someone she knew. Alas, there was no one. Anxiously she fingered her earrings the way she always did when she was nervous. Her grandmother had given them to her just days before she died, and Amelia treasured them above all her other possessions. They were somewhat odd, but they perfectly represented her home. The left one held a small stone of pure black, while the right held a stone that was identical save that it was a white so pure it seemed to glow. Opposites together.

Her internal monologue came to a sudden halt when she literally stumbled over another fairy. The fairy was lying on her stomach with a book in front of her. As far as Amelia could tell, the girl hadn't even noticed when Amelia's foot hit her side, causing her to fall atop the reader.

"Sorry, I didn't see you there." She said as she picked herself up.

The girl didn't answer. She didn't even look up from her book. She just turned the page and continued reading.

"Umm, are you alright?" Amelia asked in a nervous tone.

The girls still didn't answer. She just continued reading.

"Oookay. I'll take that as a yes."

"Don't worry about it, Perdi's in her own little world." A voice called out. "She probably won't come out until she reaches the end of the chapter. Hi, I'm Artis, fairy of Mist. And that's Perdilla, fairy of Knowledge."

"My name's Amelia, fairy of Earth and Sky."

"Oh, that's cool. You're from Oppositus?"

"Yeah, and you?"

"Teylan, the realm of the unknown. Perdilla's from Intenia, realm of information."

"So, how long until she surfaces? I want to apologize for falling on her."

"It could be hours, depending on the book, but I wouldn't bother. It happens to her all the time. That's actually how I met her."

"Well, I still feel like I should do something for her."

"...Who?" Perdilla looked up from her book, having just reached the end of her chapter.

"I tripped and landed on top of you."

"Oh, I'm sorry, I didn't realize I was in the way. I didn't even notice you."

"I told you it happens to her a lot." Artis was chuckling at Amelia's expression. "Don't worry, she's tougher than she looks."

"Really, I didn't even feel it. By the way, I'm Perdilla, but everyone calls me Perdi."

"I'm Amelia."

"So, Amelia, Perdi, you guys want hang out? We still have a few hours before we need to report to our dorms."

"Can I join you?" The voice was painfully shy, almost coming out as a squeak. "My name's Dhalia, wi- Fairy of Electricity."

She didn't look like a typical fairy. She had this slightly depressed air about her, and her clothing was dark.

"Oh, you're a transfer student from CT." Perdi said tactlessly. "Sure, you can join us."

Dhalia winced. Transfer students were rare and usually faced intense prejudice. Even Dhalia's aunt Mirta, the first such transfer student, had suffered a great deal of abuse despite the full support of the Winx.

"Perdi!" Artis bestowed a ferocious glare on the oblivious fairy. Getting no response, she turned to Dhalia. "Sorry about Perdi. She doesn't pay much attention to manners. Of course you can join us."

"You don't have a problem with me being from Cloud Tower?"

"Nope!" Amelia jumped in. "I'm from Oppositus, so having you around actually makes me feel better. You help balance out the magic here."

"And my cousin transferred from Alfea to Cloud Tower about six years ago." Artis explained. "Graduated fourth in her class, too. As for Perdi, she's not going to care in the slightest."

Dhalia heaved a sigh of relief. Not everyone was going to be so accepting.

The four chatted for a time. Well, Artis, Amelia, and Dhalia chatted. Perdi dove back into her book. Suddenly a hole in the air opened above the group, and a fairy fell through it. Of course she landed on Perdi, who took no notice of the event. Amelia and Artis broke out laughing.

"Ow!"

"Hi there. Don't worry about Perdi. You're actually the third person to land on her today. My name's Artis."

The new girl stood up, rubbing her back. "I'm Reyva, fairy of Space. Clearly I need to work on that spell."

"I know the feeling. My name's Amelia, and this is Dhalia. Are you here for the new Alfea school year?"

"Yes, I need to check in with Professor Tecna."

"Umm, Reyva, turn around."

Tecna was standing behind the young girl, a disapproving look on her face. "Miss, I know it's your first day, but when teleporting into Alfea it's considered proper etiquette not to land on your fellow students."

Reyva was quaking in fear, clearly expecting Tecna to hand out some form of severe punishment. Suddenly Tecna's face melted into a grin.

"In fact, it's considered good form to land on a teacher." The girls looked at her in shock. "How did you think Professor Wizgiz got so short? Reyva, you may consider yourself checked in." She then turned and walked away. These girls would go far, she thought. It would take a little bit of a reshuffle, but she was going to make sure they ended up in the same dormitory. Alfea needed a new team of young fairies to take up the role of heroes.

A/N: Tecna has a sense of humor! Who knew? Speaking of which, one of the OCs you've just met is me making fun of myself. Try and guess who it is.

Special thanks to Alenadira for making the cover art for this story.

Profile:

Amelia:
Appearance: Shoulder-length light brown hair, with brown eyes so dark they're almost black. Light skin color, about average height, slightly thinner than average.
Powers: Earth and Sky. She can control both earth and air. This is because of her home world Oppositus, a place where opposites coexist in perfect harmony.

Perdilla(Perdi):
Appearance: Short but extremely wild black hair. (Think Einstein levels of wild hair.) Her eyes are a very, very pale grey, and her skin is so light it's almost luminescent. She actually has a permanent sun blocking spell on her, thanks to her mother, because otherwise she'd get so badly burned it might be fatal. Very tall and skinny, but not much in the way of muscle.
Powers: Knowledge. She draws her power from knowledge, such as books. Don't even think about fighting her in a library, unless you have a death wish.

Artis:
Appearance: Waist-length perfectly straight hair the color of fog, with eyes that change between grey and black according to her mood. Her skin is dusky, and she's a little shorter than Amelia, but she's ever so slightly chubby.
Powers: Mist. She can summon and control mist, fog, smoke, etc. You will never see her coming.

Dhalia:
Appearance: Purple hair so frizzy it's almost an afro. (Think Stormy's hairstyle, but less horizontal.) Her eyes are a dark blue, and her skin is very heavily tanned. She's also very short compared to the others, despite being a year older than they are. Neither thick nor thin, she has an average build.
Powers: Electricity. Her power is more subtle than Stormy's, focusing less on lightning and more on the sort of electricity you use in your house.

Reyva(Rey):
Appearance: Very short (about one inch long) hair the color of starlight. Light blue eyes, and pitch black skin. Taller than average, she's rather heavily muscled, as in "I could break you in half" muscled. She probably has less than six grams of excess fat on her body.
Powers: Space. She can open portals and manipulate gravity, or fire a beam of solar wind. However, she prefers to just punch you into another universe.
