Hello again! So I think Beauty From Pain ended a little too bluntly, so I may post an epilogue at some point, but you know when you move on from one idea to the next? Yeah. I'm really set on this one at the moment, so HERE GOES! (Beauty From Pain didn't go to the top of the archive when it was finished because I had already updated it once that day)

This takes place at the end of the second movie. When there's all that business with the tree of life? The super-trix want it, the winx want it, the specialists want it… etc etc etc….

I think this is one of my first fanfics where the girls actually have powers, crazy huh?

(The whole thing is in Flora's POV)
Disclaimer: I fully appreciate Ignio Staraffi for creating the Winx Club, and it's pretty cool that his car has a mahoosive winx logo and picture of Believix Bloom on it, and I would never want to take that away from him. Please don't sue me.

Oh, and one more thing, this is more of a prologuey thing, the other chapters will be longer!

You Shouldn't Have Trusted Me

"You little pixies need to stay away from what isn't yours!" Icy yelled, sending her next blast at Bloom, who easily dodged.

"I don't think so Icy! YOU need to keep your beaky nose out of our business!" Bloom threw a glowing fireball in Icy's direction; it hit her and sent her plummeting to the ground with a loud smack.

"Stella! The sapling! Get it!" Bloom yelled, noticing that Stormy was close to grabbing it.

"Oh, OKAY!" Stella lunged for it, pulling it out of the ground, "What now?" she called back.

"Throw it over here! I'll keep it safe!" Brandon waved, Stella threw the plant in his direction, and he caught it with ease. "Thanks!"

"Brandon, throw it to Flora! It's a freaking plant after all!" Bloom yelled, looking at me and smiling slightly. A part of me wanted to tell her not to, a part of me wanted to care for the sapling, but that wasn't possible. I knew what would happen as soon as that tree touched my skin.

"Flora! Catch! Don't let the trix get it!" Brandon hurled it at me, I lightly held out my hands, not wanting to catch it. Unfortunately for me, Brandon had good aim and it landed neatly in my open palms.

The roots turned black and turned to ash, and the young trunk withered and the leaves became brittle and crumbled to the ground. It fell out of my hands and hit the floor.

"So this is it." I said quietly, as my 'friends' watched in horror, especially Bloom.

"Flora. We needed that plant. Why did you do that?" she asked me calmly. Icy pulled her cell phone out of her pocket and checked the date, grinning to herself.

"I completely forgot this day was coming!" she laughed.

"Oh yeah, me too!" Darcy slapped herself in the face and started laughing too, "Come on, Flora," The girls, the guys and Helia recoiled at the sound of Darcy saying my name so casually.

"Flora?"

"Flora, what's going on?" I heard Helia say. I lifted my head slightly, he looked terrified, and I think he was the only one who had figured it out. It was clear he didn't want to believe it.

"Come ON, Flora, we have to get back home." Stormy tugged at my arm, I pulled it away, and she just laughed. "You haven't developed emotions for these losers, have you?"

"After four years, it would be hard not to." I muttered.

"Well guess what, you're finally done. So you can stop with that stupid act."

"…Act?" Bloom asked, "Flora… You've been working against us this whole time?" she said, he voice sounded defeated and you could hear it getting dry. Stella on the other hand looked like she was about to explode.

"I DON'T BELIEVE THIS!" Stella tried to storm up to me, but Layla and Musa were holding her back.

Icy laughed again, "Ah, drama," she clicked her fingers and a small pink box in the shape of a flower appeared. "Are you ready, sister?" she asked me. I nodded. There was no way I could ever go back. I could never be the fairy of nature ever again; I could never be an ally with the Winx again. I could never be Helia's girlfriend again. Icy smirked and swiftly opened the box, emptying its contents of what looked like murky glitter on to the earthy ground. As soon as the box was empty, my bright Believix powers crumbled away.

I never thought that I would feel so distant from the world. When Baltor put me up to this, I never believed that I would truly regret doing it. I never imagined what would happen.

As my bright pink and green exterior disappeared, it was replaced by my original transformation that I hadn't seen in years. A white lace skirt and crop top with the torn edges tinted red. My hair was loose and messy, with no flowers or ribbons holding it up. I couldn't bring myself to look at the girls, or Helia.

"Wow, it's so much easier to look at you now!" Darcy came up to me and ruffled my hair, I pushed her away.

"Stop acting like you missed me." I scorned.

"Fine. Okay, we'll start with the questioning then." Darcy folded her arms as Stormy and Icy joined her.

"You must've hit us with every once of that stupid flower magic at least fifty times each! What did Baltor say about NOT hitting us?" Stormy fumed.

"It's not like you avoided me with your stupid attacks!" I exclaimed, "you guys could have held back a bit!"

"Flora, please tell me what's going on." Helia stepped towards me, "You're one of them? You've been against us the whole time? Everything… Everything was a lie?"

"No! No… It… I… I never thought that I would… Meet… You…" I stuttered. I had failed him. I had failed everyone. Was I really allies with the enemy? The enemy being who I was apparently fighting against for all that time. Which was the trix, right? I know it began that way.

A/N:

So tell me what you think so far!

The next chapter will take place at the beginning of the freshman year, when Bloom first joined Alfea. ENJOY!
