Chapter 3: Back to School
Flora woke up the next morning to the bright sun shining in to the window. She got up and put on a night gown that Stella had given her the night before. All of a sudden there was a knock on her door. Flora opened it up slowly and opening the door revealed that it was Stella's butler.
"Hello. Good Morning. I was demanded to send you some breakfast by Princess Stella," the butler told Flora as she backed up a little bit.
Flora sat there and stared at the tray he was carrying. The butler came in to her room quickly and set the tray on to her night stand. He waved at the sleepy Flora and slammed the door of her room really hard. The tray was filled with a muffin, biscuits and gravy and a medium cup of tea.
Half an hour later, Flora was done eating her delicious and filling breakfast. She felt like going out side so she opened the sliding door that went on to the balcony. Flora was amazed at the view she saw in front of her. Being out on the balcony was very beautiful. Her room was on the fifth floor so it was very high up off of the ground. When Flora walked back in to her bedroom, she noticed a mysterious note laying on the night stand where her tray once sat. It was a very long note that read:

Flora finally finished reading the letter and she was one hundred percent shocked at what she had just read. "Let me see. Today is June twentieth so I only have two days until my classes start. I suppose that I should start getting my school supplies together so that I will be ready when it finally comes."
The next two days flew by in the blink of an eye. Finally it was time for their classes to start. The sun was not even up when they woke up for school. It was six o'clock in the morning. Flora looked in the closet in her room to see a whole wardrobe of gowns that did not fit Stella anymore. There were a few gowns that were extra puffy like what was required. Flora picked out a particular light blue dress that had spaghetti straps. It was very long and dragged on the ground a little bit when she walked but she did not really care. She opened the door to her room at six fifteen and walked down to eat breakfast. Flora was surprised when she got down to the dining hall to see that only Stella, Brandon, and Layla were eating breakfast. Finally, Helia and Ian came down from there rooms to join the rest of the students. They ran down to eat fast so they could make it to class in time. After breakfast, they all went to their first class, math and sciences with Professor Palladium.
In writing and casting spells class, all of the boys started to act stupid and not pay attention to what was going on. Finally they had done it; Ian knocked the ink bottle off of the table and spilled it all over Helia!
All of their other classes were over. Finally it was Flora's favorite class, the horse and training classes. The girls and the boys joined for the first day of class. Both teachers, Professor Saladin and Professor Faragonda said, "There will be no riding your horses today in class because you will be learning about your horse breeds. So if you all could go get your horses, halters, and lead ropes. When you get back you will all introduce yourselves and your horse's."
They all went to the stable and put the halters on the horses. Flora decided to just ride bare back, but basically, everyone decided to ride bare back because it was a long walk back otherwise. The boys beat the girls there and were waiting for them to get back.
"Now, will you please tell us your name, where you are from, your horse's name, and your horses breeds," Professor Saladin told everyone.
Stella was the first to raise her hand. She yelled out in a cheery voice, "Hi my name is Princess Stella of Solaria and this is my horse Jasper. Jasper's breed is a Thoroughbred."
Layla was the next person to volunteer. She started to say, "My name is Princess Layla from the Realm of Tides and this is Blizzard. He is a very kind and friendly horse. His breed is a Shagya Arabian.
Helia and Ian did not want to raise their hands just yet so Brandon stood up and started to introduce himself and his horse to Professor Saladin and Professor Faragonda. He said, "My name is Brandon and I am prince of Eraklyon and soon to be King of Solaria seeing that I am engaged to Princess Stella. This is my beloved horse, Avery. Avery is a Morgan.
Helia was also excited for this class so he decided to go and introduce himself now. "Hey. My name is Helia and I am from The Kingdom of Lynphea. My horse is named Prancer. Her breed is a French Trotter.
Flora told Ian that he should go next and he said in a boring tone of voice, "My name is Ian and I am prince of the Realm of Tides. My horse's name is Dipper and she is a Gelderlander.
Flora finally got to introduce herself and her horse. She said proudly, "My name is Flora and apparently I am the princess of The Fifth Moon of Marigold. This is my favorite horse in the whole world, Spirit. Spirit is a Friesian."
"Now that I know all of you, you all have a special assignment to do for tomorrow. You have to research your breeds of horses and write a one page essay about the breed," said Professor Faragonda.
After class, Flora went to the stables to let Spirit out for an evening ride. They rode down the beautiful trail for awhile. Soon after following the trail, Flora became lost. She was looking for signs when suddenly she saw one that especially stuck out to her. It said, "WESTERN WOODS. STAY OUT! BEWARE OF EVIL!"
Flora looked behind her and soon saw that Stella was following her in to the woods. She also notices that Brandon was following Stella. All of a sudden Brandon yelled at her, "Hey Flora. What are you doing here in the Western Woods? I was just wondering because didn't our professors say that we were not supposed to step foot in to the west woods unless they were here with us?"
"I am sorry. I was just riding with Spirit and I got lost," Flora told the whole story to Brandon.
"AHHH," Brandon and Flora heard a startled Princess Stella yelling in a distance.
Flora looked behind her and noticed a huge and scary hooded figure standing behind them. Brandon grabbed his sword and swung it at the beast but he kept missing it. The figure grew long nails out of no where and they were as sharp as blades. He slashed Spirit's hind quarters. Flora was sent flying off of her horse and she hit the ground really hard for the second time in the month.
The creature slashed the ground next to Flora and nearly hit her. When Flora got up, she noticed that Spirit had ran off. "Shield schützt mich," Flora muttered the blocking spell. It did not work against the hooded beast.
"Shield schützt mich," Flora heard Stella try and it worked immediately seeing that she was a more experienced witch than Flora had been. Brandon stood there until the spell wore off. "You guys have to run back and get some help. Be careful Stella and Flora. Please make it safely."
"NO. I will not leave you Brandon," Stella said bursting in to tears.
The creature grew back his nails and threw them in to Brandon's chest. The evil monster was about to come after Stella and Flora.
Stella jumped off of her horse and ran over to Brandon as she was avoiding the hooded beast. She started to cry even more when she saw him, "oh my god Brandon. What did that beast do to you?"
Just then Layla rode up on Blizzard and muttered another spell, "Damn das Tier in die Hölle." This spell was much powerful than any other spell they tried because the beast totally disappeared this time.
"I have to get Brandon back to the palace or else he will die. I really do not want him to die on me. I love him more than any one else in the world," Stella cried on to Layla.
"Hurry up. Go and get him Stella," Flora said putting her hand on Stella's shoulder.
She managed to lift Brandon up on to Jasper and she got on behind him and galloped off. Brandon's horse started to gallop behind the couple.
"Shoot. There is more of them coming Flora. Do you remember the other spell that we learned in spells class today?," Layla asked in a frustrated voice.
Flora nodded to Layla and the other beasts charged toward us. "Begone Tiere und glauben," Flora and Layla chanted together. All of the beasts now disappeared in to puffs of fire. With both of their horses were gone so they became tired very quickly.
The horses finally came running out of the woods as they sensed that all of the monsters were gone. Layla and Flora jumped on and rode a way being glad that they were almost out of there. They finally got to the corner of the woods. They were both happy that they made it out alive. They rode in to the pasture and all of a sudden Layla chanted another spell, "Bring mich zurück zu Stella's Palace." She disappeared leaving Flora all alone. Flora kicked Spirit in to his designated stall. Flora ran up to the palace doors, threw them open, and suddenly collapsed on to the floor.
Flora woke up later that night with Layla by her side. "I am sure you are really tired Flora," Layla said in a concerned voice.
Flora nodded her head back at Layla to show that she was listening.
"Your powers got drained when you were back in the Western Woods," Layla told her in a rather confused voice.
Suddenly Flora shot up in her bed. "What about Stella…and Brandon," Flora said as she suddenly started to freak out.
Before Layla responded, she held up a small bottle of sleeping potion up to her lips. Flora swallowed the horrible tasting and smelling sleeping potion. She immediately fell in to a deep sleep.
Flora woke up the next morning to a knock on her door. She opened the door to reveal that it was Layla.
"Meet me in the hospital wing as soon as possible. It is very urgent," Layla said in a worried voice. She immediately left after she told me what to do.
Flora got up out of bed and looked at her face in the mirror. She immediately remembered what happened when she saw that her face was all cut up. She threw on one of her gowns and walked quickly to the hospital wing. Lying in the hospital wing was Brandon and Stella. Brandon was lying on a long bed with a long animal scratch across his chest. Stella had a brace on her wrist and scratches all over her body. Flora stood there speechless.
"They were attacked again on the way back from the woods," the nurse said covering up the unusual silence.
Flora stared at Stella and Brandon some more. Brandon had a concussion and was totally knocked out. Stella was not injured, but had a few bumps and bruises. Stella leaned over Brandon and kissed him on the forehead. They then walked into the lounge. Neither of us spoke for a couple minutes.
Finally Flora said, "How are you feeling?"
"I am ok. Just a little shocked that is all," Stella said without raising her head.
As all of them finished the school year, Stella and Brandon were obviously still a strong couple. Ian and Layla also became a new couple. As for Flora and Helia, they grew to be the best of friends.
"You know what? I find something really weird. I usually can't have a five minute conversation with any guy I meet," Flora thought to herself. "But I can still have a conversation with Helia just fine. Well okay. Maybe I do have a little crush on Helia. Oh who am I kidding. I have a huge crush on him. Not that I would tell that to anyone else. Well except for my trusty horse, Spirit. By the way, Brandon's horse Avery is still very sick, but I have been performing a healing spell on her every day after class."
