The rest of the Winx and Specialists looked on silently, their faces bearing no expression despite the undeniable atmosphere of sadness and loss which hung heavily in the air.

"Goodbye Bloom. I'm sorry we had come to this but each tomorrow will hold a brighter future. For the whole Magic Dimension, for me and for you." Sky muttered. His voice was barely a whisper as he laid the young woman who was his long-time girlfriend and fiancé, into the Lake of Final Resting. With those final words, Sky wiped away the tears from his eyes and took in a deep breath. Tears which he had promised to Bloom and himself that would be the last to be shed for their past and everything that came between them.

He straightened his back, turned around to face his friends and for the first time in a long time, he felt something which he has never felt for quite a while. Hope.

"Come on guys, Magix still needs us."
