Previously on A New Beginning:
"What happened? How did I get here?"
"You jumped from the waterfall when I came after you. I dove after and we hit the water. Hard. You got knocked our. And then I swam to shore and tried to revive. Then the others got here."
"You told them right?"
"Yeah."
"I'm glad to see you're alright Flora." Helia told her.
"Helia! I thought you were at the movie waiting for us."
"I was. Until Sky called and told me there was a change in plans. I went straight to Alfea and came here with the others."
"You didn't tell them we met in the forest. Did you?
"I kinda did."
"What's this about meeting Helia in the forest Flo?" Timmy demanded.
"Long story Tim."
"We've got plenty of time Flora. Is that why you sounded so nervous on the phone? Because you had already met your blind date?" Flora nodded. Her blushing cheeks hidden by the blankets. "Flora. Flora. Flora. What am I going to do with you? You can tell us when you're feeling better. After I tickle you." Timmy tackled his cousin while she tried to roll away.
"Oh. How cute. Is pathetic technology freak cheating on his girlfriend?" A voice taunted. Flora screamed and hid behind her cousin.
"I'm not cheating on Tecna! Flora just happens to be my cousin!"
"Timmy's cheating on Tecna. Timmy's cheating on Tecna." Darcy taunted.
Flora started to get mad. "He's not cheating on Tecna. He's my cousin! He cares me about like family. Not a girlfriend or anything like that. He's the only family I've ever known since my parents died who knows how! His family took Rose and I in after my parents died. Leave him alone!"
"Why should we?" Stormy sneered.
"Flora. Don't do it. Flora, noooo!" Timmy yelled as Flora shot into the air. "Flora, you're still wet. Get back here!"
"Because I said leave him alone! Vine trapper!" Flora yelled.
"Flora, that is enough! Get back down here and rest!" Timmy yelled at her. "Flora, you know better than that." He scolded her when she landed. "Mother would be very upset with you. You're to become queen in a few years you know. Once we find you a suitable boyfriend that is."
"But Timmy. I'm only 16. Why can't aunty take over being queen?"
"She's only queen right now because she had to take your father's place until you're of age. You know she hates being treated with respect." Saladin had finally finished off the witches. "Your hair is ruined." Timmy tried to brush his cousin's hair but she pulled away.
"Leave her be Tim." Tecna told him.
"It's getting late. We should set up the tents. We'll need to stand watch with the witches around." Sky told his friends.
"Wait. I should tell you what happened in the forest when I met Helia." Flora told her friends. She wrapped her blankets around her tighter.
"Flora, you need to rest. I'll tell them." Helia told her.
"Thanks Helia." Flora thanked him. Stella grinned. Flora groaned in annoyance. And Helia began his story.
