Disclaimer: I don't own Winx Club
Our story begins in Magix. The Winx Club were out enjoying the beautiful weather near the lake. With Graduation coming up soon, the girls wanted to spend as much time with each other as well as their boyfriends. Flora and Layla were dangling their feet in the water, Tecna and Musa were reading some books and Stella was playing around with Bloom's hair. "This is the life." Bloom sighed as she leant back into Stella.
"You got that right Bloom! It would be even better if the guys were here with us though!" Stella replied as she plaited her best friend's long red hair.
"Stella, you know they have a big assessment coming up. They can't hang out with us all the time now." Layla looked at the blonde fairy.
"So what? They should at least have time for their girlfriends!" Stella huffed.
"It would be nice to see the guys again." Flora mused quietly tilting her head back, listening to the sounds of the trees and plants.
"Come on! We don't need the guys to be around us all the time!" Musa closed her book, her pigtails swaying gently in the wind. "Let's have our own time together!"
"Yes! Let's go shopping! That'll cheer us up!" Stella suggested.
"No!" Layla groaned.
"Shopping isn't everything, Stella." Tecna joined in the conversation. "Besides, it's nice being out here." She played around with her scanner.
"Besides Stella, we're seeing them tomorrow remember?" Bloom sat up. "We're going to Magix for the day since it's a Saturday and all."
"Shouldn't we get back to Alfea?" Flora asked, checking the time. "We've got to be back before curfew and that's in 30 minutes."
"Flo's right. Come on guys." Musa stood up and stretched. The rest of the Winx Club stood up with Layla and Flora placing their shoes back on.
"Flora…" A gentle and soothing voice called out to the Fairy of Nature.
"Huh?" Flora whipped her head around trying to see who called her name.
"What is it Flora?" Layla asked.
"Did you guys just hear that?" Flora asked, still listening for the voice.
"Hear what?" Tecna and Musa exchanged confused glances.
"I didn't hear anything." Bloom said.
"Flora…"
"There it is again! Something's calling my name!" Flora said turned around to the rest of the girls. "What?" She noticed their expressions.
"I didn't hear anything Flo." Musa said.
"Has she gone crazy or something?" Stella wondered.
"Stella!" Layla scolded her. "Flora, come on. Let's go." She gently pulled Flora along as the girls walked back to Alfea, with Flora constantly looking over her shoulder, wanting to hear the voice again before she left.
"I'm telling you Helia, I heard someone or something call out my name! I just don't know what it was." Flora sighed as she pulled her knees up to her chest, waiting to hear her boyfriend's response.
Helia chuckled over the phone. "I believe you Flora, don't worry."
"But why don't the others believe me?" She asked, tucking a piece of her long golden-brown hair behind her ear.
"I'm not sure sweetie. But don't worry you'll convince them." Helia said looking out of the window from his room at Red Fountain, trying to imagine what his girlfriend was doing right now.
"Do you really think so?" Flora asked, sitting up a bit straighter when Bloom walked into the room they shared, after having a shower. She smiled knowingly as she began to dry her long red hair.
"Of course I do. Now get some sleep, my beautiful flower, I'll see you tomorrow." Flora swore she could hear the smile in Helia's voice.
"I love you, Helia." She smiled into the phone.
"I love you too, Flora." Helia said before hanging up.
"You guys are so cute, you know that?" Bloom teased her roommate, sitting down on her bed.
"Really?" Flora blushed.
"Yes! You guys have a great relationship!" Bloom replied as Kiko jumped onto her lap.
"Thanks Bloom. You and Sky have a great relationship too." Flora complimented.
"I can't wait to see him tomorrow. It's going to be amazing." Bloom sighed happily, scratching Kiko behind his ears.
"Let's get some sleep. Nighty-night, Bloom." Flora slipped under the covers of her bed.
"Night Flora." Bloom switched off the lights and the two fairies drifted off to sleep and Flora was instantly pulled into a nightmare.
"Flora…" The sweet voice called out.
"Where are you? Who are you?" Flora wondered as she walked around the forest.
"Come to me…" Flora ran the direction that the voice was coming from before skidding to a halt at what she saw.
"Helia!" She gasped, seeing her boyfriend unconscious on the ground in front of her. She collapsed to the ground, touching him gently. "Helia, wake up! Please wake up!"
"We fooled her!" The sweet voice became more sinister and two other voices started laughing. "We fooled her with a voice!" Out of the shadows came the Trix.
"You!" Flora gasped, backing away.
"Yes. Us. Surprised to see us, goody-goody?" Stormy snarled at her.
"It's just a dream." Flora chanted as she glared at the Trix, standing up.
"Oh, it's not a dream Flora. It's real." Icy gave her a wicked smirk. "Ladies, get her!" She commanded Darcy and Stormy.
"Enchantix!" Flora cried out, getting ready to transform.
But nothing happened.
"What?" Flora gasped, looking at herself. "But… but how… hey!" She cried out as Darcy and Stormy grabbed her.
"Prepare to say goodbye to your boyfriend, flower fairy!" Icy snarled as her hands started to glow.
"Leave him alone!" Flora yelled, struggling against Darcy and Stormy, desperate to get free and protect Helia.
"Ice Coffin!" Icy smirked.
"NOOOOOOOOOOO!" Flora screamed as she woke up.
"Flora!" Bloom sat up at her friends scream. Flicking on the lights she saw the Fairy of Nature sobbing into her hands. "Hey, Flora, calm down!" Bloom enveloped her shaking friend into a hug.
"It… it was horrible!" Flora sobbed onto Bloom's shoulder.
"Flora?" Layla opened the door with Stella, Musa and Tecna behind her. "Is everything ok? We heard her scream." She asked Bloom as the girls walked into the room.
"I don't know." Bloom replied, looking worried while stroking Flora's hair. "I could hear her tossing and turning for a bit and then she woke up screaming."
"Oh Flora." Stella sighed, sitting down on the bed next to the shaken fairy.
"Do you wanna talk about it?" Musa asked, sitting down on the floor along with Tecna and Layla.
"Helia…" Flora whispered. "It was Helia… he was injured and the Trix were there and… and… I couldn't transform… Icy killed him right in front of me and I couldn't do anything about it!" Flora burst into fresh sobs.
"Flora." Stella joined in on the hug along with Musa, Tecna and Layla.
"It's ok Flora. It was just a dream." Layla soothed her.
"Helia's fine. Don't worry, ok?" Stella said.
"And besides, the Trix would never beat him that easily." Musa smirked.
"According to my calculations, the chances of them beating Helia are zero." Tecna reassured her.
"Thanks, you guys." Flora wiped away the rest of her tears as the girls tightened their embrace around her.
"Not a problem Flora. We're the Winx Club. We'll be there for you, no matter what." Bloom smiled at her roommate and Kiko chirped his agreement, sitting on Bloom's shoulder.
Flora didn't sleep much that night. Even with Piff sleeping nearby didn't calm the nature fairy down. By the time the sun had come up, Flora was leaning on the balcony, watching the sun rise along with Chatta, who was concerned for her bonded fairy and had also stayed up the whole night.
"It's beautiful, isn't it?" Flora asked Chatta sweetly, hiding how tired she was.
"It's gorgeous Flora!" Chatta agreed, her pigtails bobbing up and down as she nodded. "It's the prettiest thing ever! I'm gonna write a cheer about it!" She zoomed back inside.
Flora chuckled as she continued to watch the sunrise over the forest, listening to the trees whispering amongst themselves. She was terrified that her dream was going to really happen. What if the Trix weren't defeated and had managed to escape their prison? They were so close to graduating and Flora didn't want anything to happen to anyone at all. Especially Helia. He was the most important person in her life and she knew that wouldn't be able to go on without him.
Sighing, Flora went back into the dormitory she shared with her best friends in the whole magic dimension.
