One Week Later
No POV
It has been a week since the girls arrived on Earth to begin their mission to find the six lost princes, and they have done a great job since their encounter with those girls to lie low. They go to school, do their duties by searching for those boys and then they go home. Though they haven't had much luck with finding them.
Bloom's POV
"We have observed exactly 72% of the male school population, and we still haven't found even one of the princes," stated Tecna, she was sitting in the seat beside me. We were out on the bleachers near the football field, since it was lunch time and we wanted to avoid everyone while we discussed our mission.
"It doesn't sound like those odds are adding up in our favor," Musa spoke as she slid her headphones down around her neck.
"The exact opposite in fact," Tecna reported to us as she clicked some of the buttons on her laptop, "we only have to observe approximately 22% more to find our princes."
"Look I know nobody wants to be the one to say it but what if we don't find these princes, even after examining the entire school population?" Stella asked, we all looked to Tecna because we knew she would have the answer.
"There is something that I haven't told you girls, Headmistress Faragonda contacted me the other day and gave me a spell she created but it's only to use in the instance that we can't locate the princes without magic," Tecna revealed.
So this entire time we could've used the spell that Headmistress Faragonda had created and locate the boys instantly, plus Tecna has been lying to us?
"Well let's use it then, it'll make this mission just that much easier!" Layla cheered, Tecna shook her head.
"This is why I haven't told you girls, the spell uses large amounts of magic energy so when and if we use it, the Trix will be able to locate the princes almost instantly," Tecna explained as she opened her backpack and slide her portable laptop in, "this is a last case scenario, I've been working on a mimic spell that uses less energy and disappears after a certain period, but I need more time," stated Tecna.
"Alright new plan girls, Tecna and Flora can work on the location spell while the rest of us work on finding those damn boys," I ordered as we got up from our seats on the bleachers, we headed back into the building to stop at our lockers before heading to class.
Musa's POV
After talking to the girls about the spell that Tecna acquired from Headmistress Faragonda, that actually gave me a great idea for how to protect the princes once we find them and since we have art next it's a great time work on it.
"See you girls later," Flora, Bloom and I said our goodbyes then headed towards the art class which wasn't too far away from our lockers, when we got inside we passed the obnoxious couples but we've been on, I wouldn't say good terms, we haven't had any altercations.
"Girls I have an idea that I want your help with," I told them as we sat down in our seats, they shook their heads.
"Sure what is it?" asked Bloom
"On Melody we can use songs as a form of magic, so I was thinking about creating one that would be used as something we could use against the Trix," I explained my idea to the girls, they looked interested in my idea.
"That could be useful," replied Flora, as she worked on her painting of the tree of life, "but what if it doesn't work?" she asked
"Well then we'll go back to the drawing board," I shrugged my shoulders, from the corner of my eye I could see some of those pesky girls eyeing our table. I thought nothing of it because of the proposition we gave the guys, we leave them alone and they leave us alone. I started to right down some lyrics when I heard one of the girls talking to Bloom, so I looked up.
"That's a very pretty painting," Shay said as she examined Blooms' painting, she thanked her with a nod, "you know what would make it look even better, this" she said as she grabbed the paint brush that Bloom had placed down, she got a giant glob of paint and splashed it onto her painting.
"Now it's perfect," Shay grinned as she walked away to her table, I turned back to Bloom and she was pissed. The thing is when Bloom gets pissed, she gets pissed. I watched as her eyes started to glow orange, she was going to expose herself and all of us if we didn't get her out of there now.
I got up and grabbed her arm, "Bloom you need to go now," I said practically dragging her out of her seat, she had this orange aura around her which was very noticeable. I lifted my watch up and sent a distress signal to the others, just to let them know whats going on. I pushed Bloom passed those awful girls and out of the room, "go home and calm down."
I watched as Bloom ran out of the building and headed towards the apartment, I went back into the art room completely pissed.
"What happened to we leave you alone if you leave us alone? What drives someone to go destroy another person's property?" I practically yelled at those dumb bimbos and their boyfriends, the girls just laughed and honestly I don't know what the guys were doing, "actually nevermind don't answer those questions because I know I'm just going to get a dumb answer," I rolled my eyes leaving them and heading back to my table where Flora was trying to get the majority of the paint off of Bloom's drawing, I sat down and let out a large exhale.
"I know I've been being very pacifist about these people, but we need to do something about them," Flora said tossing a paint covered towel into the trash bin, I looked at her shocked.
"Really?" I asked with a chuckle, Flora has always been the one to solve problems without confrontation let alone force, but for her to say something like this well it just caught me by surprise, but I like this side of her.
"Like Stella said, when they mess with my friends it pisses me off," she replied, I laughed
"Whatever you want to do, I'm down," I said leaning towards her and grinning, she looked at me and just snapped her fingers, "what was that?" I asked.
"Let's just say they'll get a little surprise when they go to their lockers, more specifically some insects," she said to continued to peacefully work on her painting, I just laughed
"Remind me not to piss you off, ever," I said going back to work on my song
Ding. Ding. Ding.
That was the final bell for school, I had english last period which was the class I had with none of the other girls which was kind of depressing, but I'll survive because it's only for the mission. I grabbed my notebooks from off my desk as the students fled the room as quick as they could, I slipped them inside my bag and put it around my shoulder. The girls and I made an agreement to meet in the quad after school to walk home together, so that's where I headed. After school it doesn't take long for the hallways to empty because of students rushing to practices or to just get home, which I understand I'd want to get out of here as quick as I could if I went here for real. I was messing around with my watch when I felt someone in my presence, I turned around to see Shay and her friends completely pissed.
"You," Shay said with a nasty attitude, they all stood there with their hands on their hips, "it was you and your dumb friends who put that shit in our lockers."
"Put what in your lockers?" I asked acting like I didn't know what they were talking about, that just made them even more pissed which was fun to watch.
"Oh don't play dumb, we know how extremely jealous you and your friends are of us and you wanted to get us back," she blabbered on, "but like I said before you chose the wrong girls to mess with."
"You know it's funny how you say we're the ones jealous of you but I have a feeling it's the other way around, ever since the first day we met you, you girls have done nothing but start drama," I began my rant as I watched their boyfriends come around the corner, "like when we bumped into you, we apologized, and all you did was rant about your popularity status and call my friends whores, now if that doesn't scream jealousy then I don't know what does," I continued, "oh and bringing your boyfriends into the equation doesn't help your issue, it just adds to the point that you girls are weak minded individuals and can't defend yourself, and as for your boyfriends they're dumb by association," by now I had pissed the entire group off, I actually think I'm on their hit list now, oops.
"You're going to regret saying that," Shay said as she took a step closer, I didn't flinch which caught those girls and guys off guard.
"No, I'm certainly not" I asserted to her that I'm not scared of her nor her posse, "but you just might, oh and as for you boys our deal is off the table so if any of you try anything, trust me you'll regret it," I said as I turned around and continued to walk toward the quad, that entire group was so silent that all you could hear was the tapping of my heels, I had the biggest smile on my face and I tried my hardest not to start laughing like a fool. Once outside I practically sprinted to the quad, I saw the girls sitting at a table waiting for me and when I got to them I was out of breath.
"There you are, we were starting to get worried, where were you?" Layla asked as I was catching my breath, I laughed.
"Sorry girls I was confronted by those girls and their boyfriends, they tried to accuse me of things and I practically told them off, sorry," I said as we left the school quad and headed back to our apartment, "oh and I might have told them our deal of leaving each other alone was done."
"You know I'd like to say we attempted to keep low profiles here in Earth, but we are meant to be shown off," Stella said twirling around, we all laughed
"Stella's right, if my calculations were correct there was a six percent chance of us not being noticed," revealed Tecna, "so not great odds."
"I know one way we can be shown off, first step new outfits then we go out and roam the town," Stella said as we headed up the stairs to the apartment, once we entered we saw Bloom waiting in there and she was finally calm, "so nobody even get comfortable because we are leaving," she said clapping her hands, we all headed to the door and she gasped.
"Not in these outfits, no we need something new," she said pacing back and forth, then she faced towards us and with no warning casted a spell changing our outfits (Season 7 outfits), "now let's go."
We exited our apartment after setting our school bags down, when we got to the sidewalk we noticed some familiar faces in front of us heading towards the same direction as us.
"Ew," was the only thing the girls and I can muster from our mouths.
"Let's just hope they aren't going to the Frutti Music Bar, although logically speaking that's where they would be going in this direction," Tecna said as we crossed the street to be on the opposite side of the street, I noticed Flora checking the plants out as we passed them, we were all just happy to be getting a break.
No POV - With the boys
"We'll meet up with you boys at the Frutti Music Bar, we heard there is a sale and we just don't want to miss it," Shay said pecking her boyfriend, Brandon, on the cheek. They all just shook their heads as the girls turned the corner and the boys continued walking down the street, they noticed the Winx girls on the other side of the street and for some reason they couldn't keep their eyes off of them.
"Now I can't be the only one who feels like an idiot for letting our girlfriends make a mockery out of us for ganging up on those girls when we didn't even know the whole story," Timmy spoke as they waited for the light to change to allow them to cross the street, they all just kind of shrug their shoulders, "but they were clearly in the wrong, right?"
"Damn it Timmy, who cares if they were in the wrong or not, we're supposed to back up our girlfriends when they have issues," Riven snickered as the light changed and they crossed the street.
"Clearly not, when they're just dragging these poor girls into this situation, after all our girlfriends were the ones who started all this drama," Helia bantered back, they all looked at him kind of surprised but then again they knew he liked to see the good in situations.
"Poor girls? If anything they're in the wrong and now they're our issue," Riven continued to argue as they walked up towards the Frutti Music Bar.
"Sounds like someone is mad a certain raven haired girl told him and his girlfriend off," Brandon added, "I've got to give it to these girls, they're hot and they know how to handle themselves, unlike out girlfriends."
"Shit I don't know about you guys but I think they're weird as hell," Nabu stated which caught the guys off guard, they all laughed.
"What do you mean? All I've got from our interactions from them is that they are complete bitches," Riven said as they entered the Frutti Music Bar, both groups noticed each other as the boys sat in their booth while the girls sat at a table near open half of the place.
"I thought about what Timmy had said about them and it doesn't really make sense, I don't know just they give off this weird vibe," Nabu said as his eyes scanned the menu, the other guys just exchanged some weird looks.
"By weird you mean annoying," Riven said looking at the girls, but what he didn't know was he found himself staring at Musa, the same girl who had told him and his friends off earlier.
"Look all I'm saying is something is up with those chicks," Nabu said removing himself from this conversation because he didn't want to keep backing up his suspicions.
"I guess what you guys are saying is true, I mean they were rude to us too," Sky added his two cents to the conversation, Riven just shook his head in agreement, "look as long as we're with our girlfriends those girls over there are going to be an enemy."
"Weird enemies," Nabu added
"Let's just ignore them, I mean we really don't even talk to them unless we're with the girls, so just drop it," Timmy said causing the rest of the group to shut up.
"Whatever," Riven ended the conversation
Stella's POV
My eyes scanned across the menu, but none of the drinks were popping up at me, they all sounded so plain compared to the drinks I'm served in Solaria.
"Ugh nothing looks good," I whined to the others, they just laughed at my misfortune because that's what real friends do, "this is not funny!" I pouted.
"Come on Stella," Bloom laughed as the waitress came over to take our orders
"Hey Roxy," Musa and Flora gave her a very welcoming smile, she returned with one
"Hey girls what can I get you?" she asked with a pad of paper in one hand and a pen in the other, they checked the menu again. They all gave the girl their orders but I was still stumped as to what I was going to get, that's when Bloom gently placed her hand on my arm.
"She'll have a frozen mango lemonade," she told the waitress and she wrote it down, then she headed back to the bar to make our drinks, "trust me you'll love it."
Musa's POV
"So girls, I don't know if you've noticed but those guys have been staring at us since the moment they got here," I told the girls as I gestured to Riven and his friends who were sitting in the booth on the opposite end of the room.
"I guess when they're girlfriends are around they take that as a free pass to check other girls out," Layla sneered as the girls looked back at them, I laughed.
"Well let them check someone else out," snapped Stella, "I've met guys way hotter than them back in Magix."
"So what you're saying is they're hot?" I asked with a laugh because I knew this was going to start an argument, she just shrugged her shoulders.
"Look all I'm saying is they were a whole lot hotter before they opened their mouths," Stella replied, "now they're just assholes in a hot body, which in my opinion kills the entire look."
"She's not wrong," Layla agreed and we all laughed, that's when Roxy came back with our drinks. She set mine in front of me and I thanked her, so did the rest of the girls. We all watched as Stella took a sip from her cup, immediately her face lit up.
"This is amazing!" she screeched as she continued to sip on her straw, her drink was almost gone at this point.
Bloom shrugged her shoulders, "I knew she's like it," we all laughed.
After about an hour of talking and a few more rounds of drinks, we decided to head on back to the apartment to work on some homework and get some rest for the following school day. Luckily for us when we left the boys were still at their booth so we weren't going to have to run into them on the way home.
"Girls I just came up with a brilliant idea," I heard Tecna from behind me boast about an idea she had, but for what?
"For what?" I asked, the others shook their heads wanting to know the same thing
"Well since our best option for finding the princes and keeping them safe is without magic, I've come up with an algorithm that I'm going apply to human analyzer!" she said so proudly, we all kind of laughed nervously because we didn't understand a word she had said.
"In English Tecna," Stella remarked as we walked along the sidewalk
"I'm going to update my ladybug analyzer to detect magical beings," she said happily
"That means the princes!" Bloom replied excitedly
"I thought about it and my analyzer is practically untraceable to the Trix so I can update it's algorithm to detect whether someone is a magical being, the tough part is going to be analyzing all the boys at Gardenia high" she said as we walked up the stairs to our apartment, as soon as we entered Tecna went straight to our room to start on it.
"Well I don't know about you girls but I'm ready to get some sleep," Bloom said stretching her arms out and yawning, Stella shook her head and so did Layla.
"Goodnight girls," I said as I sat on the couch with my music sheets, Flora walked up to me.
"Are you not going to bed?" she asked sitting next to me, I shook my head
"I'm going to give Tecna some time to work on her gadgets, this'll give me some time to work on my song for my final," I said, she shook her head
"Well good luck with it," she said as she headed to her room and eventually disappearing, I sat on the couch and thought about what I could write about but nothing was coming to my mind. I got off the couch and decided to go for a walk, I snapped my fingers and changed my outfit. (Season 6 Official Outfit) I quietly placed the keys in my pocket and left the apartment, I walked down the stairs leading to the street, just as I was going to turn the corner I saw the guys.
Literally just my luck.
"Where are you going?" Riven asked with a snarky attitude, I rolled my eyes
"Why do you care?" I asked
"What Riven meant was you really shouldn't be going out alone at night," Helia corrected his dim-witted friend, "it's just not safe."
I chuckled, "Trust me, nothing is going to happen to me," I said pushing my through them and heading towards wherever, I had no idea where I was going. I guess my body was on autopilot because the first place I thought of was the beach, and there wasn't one too far away from where I was, so I headed there. I stood at the edge of the water listening to the waves crashing against the shore, it reminded me of Melody and watching the whales with my mother. Oh how I missed my mother, she was the most kind and generous person in the Magic dimension. Why do bad things happen to the best people?
Standing there thinking about Melody and my mother it gave me so much inspiration, I clicked my watch and recorded the lyrics that came to my head which were awesome! I was so I happy that I headed straight back to the apartment, when I got inside I had realized how tired I had gotten so I headed straight to Tecna and I's room where I saw Tecna fast asleep on her bed.
"She's got the right idea," I thought to myself as I changed into my pajamas and crawled into bed, it didn't take long for me to follow in suit and fall asleep.
The next morning
Flora's POV
Beep. Beep. Beep.
Again I heard my alarm going off and I got up sluggishly to turn it off, somehow every morning I manage to be the first one up. I guess that's a perk because then I get to the shower first and I don't have to rush. I walked out of my room and into the kitchen where I made tea for all of the girls, it's better for them than coffee and well, they'll actually drink it. After putting it together I went to all the rooms to wake them up, I knocked on Stella and Layla's door, I opened it slowly.
"Come on girls time to get up," I said quietly, Layla rolled over and immediately started coughing which isn't a good sign. That's when I heard coughs from the other rooms too, and I knew that this was going to be bad. Musa and Tecna's door opened up and Musa came out, she didn't look sick which was good.
"Looks like the girls caught something," I said as we went to the kitchen, I poured the tea into separate cups and used my magic to levitate them so that I could get them to each of the girls. One by one I brought each of the girls some healing tea, so they should be better in a day or two.
"Guess we're on our own for school today," Musa said as she shoved spoonfuls of cereal into her mouth, since I knew we were going to have extra time I decided to sit down and enjoy my breakfast for once.
"I'm just glad we all didn't catch it," I giggled as I took small sips of tea, "I guess that explains why everyone went so early to bed last night too," I remarked, Musa shook her head since her mouth was full of food. I sat there lost in my thoughts, I was thinking about something the other day but I didn't want to say anything because I hoped it wasn't true but now I have a feeling it might be just because of so many coinciding things.
"Musa can I ask you a question? And please don't laugh at me because it's just a theory, something that's been on my mind the past couple of days," I said as I gently placed my cup onto the counter, Musa turned to me and shook her head, she had more cereal in her mouth, "it's actually about are not-so friendly friends downstairs," I revealed, she quickly swallowed her cereal.
"What about them?" she raised an eyebrow
"Well those boys look to be about eighteen, they go to Gardenia high and there are six of them," I started listing off the requirements on the list we made the other day, Musa's face just went blank but then she started laughing.
"They couldn't be the princes, they don't seem like royalty with their snarky attitudes and completely horrendous partner choices," Musa said as she got out of her seat and placed the empty bowl into the sink, she turned around and looked at me with nervous expression.
"It can't be them, right?"
