Look! Reviews!
Wallington M Simpson, Jr: Icy and Stormy aren't, but Darcy, well...keep reading Mutants in Magix. It'll cover it in the next chapter or so.
purpleNova258: If you need to see where Ryder made her intro, check out my other fics. Well, my other winx fics.
Chibi Horsewoman: Maybe we could do like an every-other-chapter kind of thing. The other site where I post my X-Men stuff calls it a roundrobin fic.
Yes, Maybe the Darkheart girls could try to get to young Raven. That would make an interesting twist. Lorelei meeting up with Marilee and co. seems to be inevitable.
On with the story!
Looking Glass
2. Venting Pressure
"I can't believe she would want to go there!" Luna fumed over the phone. She had called up her cousin and things had gotten quite heated. "I can understand if it were Red Fountain, but fairy school? Why would she want to go there of all places?"
The red haired witch on the other end of the line just sighed and twirled her hair around her finger. Luna was know for throwing hysterics from time for time, but this was one with some sort of sound motive behind it. "I don't see why you're so upset." Dusk said. "Raven, Riven and Musa's girl, is supposed to come to CT this year, and from what Saph told me, Bloom and Sky's kids have switched schools entirely. You seriously need to lighten up!"
"I just can't understand why she would want to go there." Luna said. "I know that Lorelei is going to RF, but she's a little more controlled than Twila. I mean, this was the kid who kept turning random objects into fruit when she was little!"1
"It won't be that bad!" Dusk said. "Just give her one chance. If she gets kicked out or fails, then she can go to CT."
"I guess so." The blond sighed. "Thanks for setting me straight, Dusky."
"No problem, Looney." Dusk giggled. "Bye."
"Bye." Luna said as she hung up the phone.
SPARKS PALACE
"That is unusual." Sapphire said. She and Bloom were having one of their pow-wows. "Why would he want to go to Alfea?"
"Who knows?" Bloom sighed. "I just want him to be happy, that's all."
"Well, you're doing right by him." Sapphire said. "And it's not like Marilee will be the only girl at Red Fountain. Thorn's girl Lorelei is going too."
"I guess your right." Bloom said. "So, what's it like having a senior in the house?"
"I don't know how to handle all the chaos!" Sapphire smiled. "Really, she's been really excited about the whole thing. I just can't believe it's been eighteen years."
"I can!" Bloom said. "Remember when you and Topaz first got pregnant?"
"Do I ever!" Sapphire laughed. "He looked like he'd just met up with a troll without his weapons or something. Wouldn't even speak in a complete sentance to me for about two weeks afterwards."
"Well, he was in shock. You had barely graduated." Bloom pointed out.
"I don't even think I had made it that far." Sapphire sighed.
"What didn't you make, Aunt Sapphire?" Marilee asked as she walked in.
"Nothing you should worry about just yet, Marilee." Sapphire said.
"You'll be hearing it from the other specialists instead." Bloom snickered.
MARIGOLD
"I hate this!" Lorelei grumbled. "Why do I have to know magic if I'm going to RF?"
"Because, Lor, it's a skill that will aid in your fighting, and it's your natural talent!" Thorn said. "Now, let's try this one more time."
"Fine." Lorelei grumbled. She and her mother had been out in the back yard for hours and she still hadn't quite gotten the hang of a vine wrap.
She closed her eyes and concentrated harder.
"Remember to relax." Thorn said. "If you don't loosen up, then you'll be the one tied up."
"I know, mother." Lorelei growled before sending a magic blast at the stick-person in front of her. At long last, vines appeared and surrounded the 'attacker'.
"Good job, Lori!" Thorn said. "An +A."
"I just hope I'm not judged on this in Magix." Lori grumbled.
GEOS NEBLULA
Lance had just come in from a weekend in Magix when he heard his daughter shouting.
"Dad! Dad! Guess what?" Cassandra asked.
"What?" Lance asked, already knowing the answer by the look on his wife's face.
"I Got into CT!" Cassandra exclaimed, all the while jumping with excitement. "Can you believe it? I'm going to learn to be a witch! I'll get to make potions, and do transformations, and hex people, and..."
"Hold on!" Lucy stepped in. "I will not have you getting yourself expelled like those Trix girls did!"
"I'm not stupid enough to fool around with the..." Cassandra started
"It's not just that!" Lucy shouted. "Look, you're a good little student, and I want you to stay that way. No slip ups or evil plots to take over the realm, understand?"
"But I.."
"Yes or no, Sandy." Lance said.
"Yes, Mother." Sandy said. "But how will I make friends?"
"You can just find some other witches who treat you like a person and like you." Lucy said.
"Okay." Sandy sighed. "I'm going to start packing."
"Good night, Sandy." Lance said.
"Good night, Dad, Mom." Sandy said as she walked down the hall to her room.
1 Exerpt from Sabrina, the Teenage Witch. The whole first episode when she found out she was a witch, her aunts tried to get her to turn an orange into an apple. Only, it ended up being pineapples, and she did it to the head cheerleader at her new high school.
Whew! I think our new group of students are going to need a bit of help from each other to make it through their first year. Lemme know what you think of this chap.
