Daphne walked into the dressing room "Your honour! Mrs Icy Trix!" she said with a small curtsey. Icy gave a slight frown "Daphne". Darcy could sense the tension between the two. Daphne is the Nymph of Magix making her equal to Darcy's status, however during the time that Darcy with pregnant with Stormy; Daphne was head of all sports that involved the forces of nature. She and Icy clashed all the time about the training of Ice Skaters, they argued so much that Icy was suspended from the team and Daphne was removed from couching the Ice skaters.
"What a pleasant surprise! What is the reason you are visiting today?" Darcy asked trying to calm the situation. Daphne smiled at Darcy, "Icy's manager Nebula sent me to pick the children's clothes as this Ball is the 100th one and I am it's host I want everything to be perfect, especially as my sister-in-law is being chosen as the new member for the team!" "Wonderful!" Icy replied in an uninterested tone. Darcy immediately shot her a dark look.
"Please tell me I don't have to wear another stiff tux!" Sky moaned, Daphne laughed "I think you will find this year's clothes are much more comfortable! Now for you Sky, you have piercing blue eyes, golden hair and a magical smile. I'm thinking old fashioned and simple!" she clicked her fingers and a suit appeared on him.
Sky was wearing a white tux with a blue cape. (Outfit from the ball on Eraklyon see link: https 736x/67/2b/c3/672bc3e80dfd51d538e7c0dee9fca09f. jpg). Stormy chuckled at him until Darcy's death glare silenced her. Icy smiled "I actually surprisingly like it!" Sky smiled "It defiantly beats last year's outfit!"
Daphne then looked at Stormy "Mmm… You have lovely curly hair that frames your face, piercing green eyes, a good bust and a great figure. I think for you the dress should be simple, elegant and defiantly a soft warm dark colour!" she snapped her fingers again.

However this time instead of compliments Icy AND Darcy complained. Darcy spoke first "She's 16! There's no way she is wearing that dress!" Icy let out a small growl "Change it now please!" "But I like it!" Stormy spoke up. Daphne sighed "Sorry Stormy, they're right, I'll fix it!" she snapped her fingers again and this time she received smiles of approval (http 6985/f/2014/127/b/1/icy_darcy_and_stormy_by_tohrusempai-d7hists. Jpg
"I hate it!" Stormy mumbled causing Icy to chuckle "Remember our deal! Don't worry you can wear the other dress when you are 21!" Darcy shook her head before trying to hide a mischievous smile "More like when she is 25; at least! I'm only kidding. Thank you Daphne; you were a real big help today." Daphne gave a small curtsey and left. Sky could sense the tension "Is there something you are not telling us?" his mothers looked at him. "What do you mean Sky?" Icy asked raising her eyebrows.
"Well it just seemed that there was tension between the three of you…" he looked warily between the two, Darcy sighed "We have a small rough history with her but it was 16 years ago, we're over it but it's not that easy to forget sometimes. Now look you don't need to worry about it alright? Right now we need to go have lunch, get ready, enjoy the ball and then you two have school on Monday!"
Icy was staring at her daughter something wasn't right; Stormy was normally talkative and today she had said barely more than 10 words. Darcy then saw what her wife was staring at: Stormy had her back turned towards them and was looking out the window.
Sky saw it as well and knew that he should leave and let his sister and mothers have a moment "I'll meet you at lunch, I need to go and finish my homework quickly!" he left the room after Darcy gave him a grateful smile.
"Stormy… what's the matter?" Icy asked however it seemed like her daughter ignored her. Darcy walked over to her daughter to see that she was on her phone texting; grabbing the phone she immediately had the storm witch's attention. "What?" she asked her mothers stared hard at her "Don't ignore us when we are talking to you!"
"What's going on Stormy, I received news from Cloud Tower: you went to detention twice in a week, you nearly failed a test and you were caught trying to sneak alcohol into the school!" Darcy spoke in a soft serious tone. Icy's eyes widened "You did what?" "It's not a big deal, other students have done worse!" Stormy countered.
Darcy gently placed her hand on her young daughter's shoulder "Stormy, listen to me; I know that it is hard for you, you are our daughter and people expect you to be a polite, well behaved young woman and then you have your brother; best in his grade and is head boy. You have a lot of pressure on you to match everyone's expectations. You're also still young, trying to figure out who you are and all this pressure doesn't help. We don't expect you to be that person but we expect you to try and do the best that YOU can do."
Icy sighed "I love you Stormy please know that I love you very very much and I can't afford for anything to happen to you. Which is why I am doing this; you have diabetes and don't think that we don't know about your drinking we do. It's not good Stormy, if your diabetes gets worse, who knows what will happen! Until you improve your grades and until you remain out of trouble for three months, you are banned from leaving Cloud Tower after 20:00 pm. I'm not trying to be mean Stormy, I am just worried…" Stormy began to protest "But…but you can't ban me from leaving the school at night! All my friends go out and…" Darcy interrupted her.
"Stormy. Your mother has spoken, you do not talk back or else you will be banned from your phone as well. I'll make you deal; if you do what your mother has asked of you and you are able to do it by summer vacation which is in three months, then for the first two weeks of holiday; we will go wherever you would like to go and we won't have doctors with us. Would you like that?"
Stormy's face lit up "I would like that. Alright, I won't leave after 20:00, I will try and stop drinking and I will work on my grades!" Icy smiled before she kissed her baby's cheek and hugged her. Darcy then ran her hand through Stormy's curls.
Stormy then walked out the room to go and change for their lunch. Once she left Icy wrapped her arms around Darcy and kissed her. "I've been away for too long. I missed you…" she admitted when they broke the kiss. Darcy smirked "I missed you too but at least we will have each other when we have to deal with that annoying Stella and her stubborn wife Aisha."
Walking hand in hand Icy silently whispered "It won't be long before we make them pay for what they put us through. Not to mention how they will live unhappily ever after…" Darcy shared an evil smile with her.
