Season 1 Verse IX.

Do not speak yet those incantation-like words, for {love} carries as much weight as a mere feather's.

Whisper to me in a tenor voice more tender than a father's, if you're prepared to snatch me away.

I am living, in a manner more sweetly fragrant then having a dream while buried in a bed of millions of roses.

What must I do to be able to flap my wings and fly away unsullied from this world infested with ugly creations?

Although I continue pondering alone in my cocoon, the crystalline starry sky is still so far away from me.

Do not touch me yet with those fearfully trembling fingertips, for a flower snatcher needs to display sweet hesitation.

You may touch me if you have the self-confidence to reach the deep depth of my breast.

It's not like I believe in such things such as a Prince on a white horse.

The purity decorated onto the cracked glass case is from the hearts of the dying angels.

Every time when I awake again, it would be another 100 years passed.

I am a sleeping beauty, surrounded by briar, with a sleepless soul.

The eroded crown is in a drop of blood.

Ah, I think this present reality is the truth.

Do not leave yet this barrier created by the moonlight, for then I might become aware of the mistake I'm making.

Wanting to perish enveloped in your calming warmth, am I truly a sinful girl?

I do not even know yet the meaning behind my softly flowing tears.

Do not speak yet those incantation-like words, for {love} weighs as heavy as metal chains.

Whisper to me in a tenor voice more tender than a father's, if you're prepared to snatch me away.

Make your oath now, with those trembling lips and the excitement of a hunter who gathers nectar.

You may sweep me away if you have the courage to pierce me all the way through the bottom of my breast.

My dear, once you've captured me, make sure never to let go of me.

~.o.0.o.~

After taking a final glance at Cloud Tower from a long distance Lia continued to walk toward Alfea and hope that the Lifeix Club won't attack her when they first see her.

As she walked through the Black Mud Swamp she could hear singing and laughter. "Where are those sounds coming from?"

She looked behind one of the dark trees and there was a trail of fireflies leading to someplace.

"Come with us Calliope,"

"Who are you and how do you know my name?"

"We are the Undines and we live in a miniature underwater town made of bubbles."

"I think I read about you guys in a book, so that trail of fireflies was all of you?"

"Yes, that was us and we want you to have a place to sleep for the night. We'll turn into fireflies again and you can follow our trail of sparks to a quiet place in the swamp,"

Following their sparks, the witch of stones came upon a comfortable looking bed that was made out of pink flowers and the stems that held the flowers and they seemed to able to take her weight.

"Thank you so much! But aren't you guys worried that I might ruin the flowers?"

"No, these ones are very strong and can hold up to three wolfs if they wish. It's time for us to go but we'll see you in the morning, goodnight Calliope."

"Goodnight Undines, sweet dreams."

Sitting on the bed, Popi started to remember her childhood like it was a lightning bolt coming out of the sky.

Life on Isis was very wonderful and when she was little she used to play in the gardens or inside the palace and cause trouble for her parents.

By the time she was sixteen, she started to unlock her dark powers along with her three sisters and her parents arranged for them to go to Cloud Tower to further develop them.

She felt like she was on top of the world until her step-sister Nancy showed up and ruined everything for her.

Even if her parents wanted her to be a witch she secretly and always wanted to be a fairy instead.

She tucked into bed while finding a cozy position to sleep in and soon enough, she fell asleep.

The next morning Calliope heard the Undines talking again and went to investigate.

"What should we bring to Calliope so that she can be safe when traveling to Alfea Lusiz?"

"I think we should give her a yellow tulip and…"

Lusiz looked at one of the trees and could sense that their new best friend was watching them but didn't want them to notice her, as a playful gesture they quietly went under the swamp water and swam to her.

When she peered around to check on them they weren't anywhere to be seen and as she walked to where they were talking they jumped out of the water and scared the living daylights out of her.

"Hello, Calliope."

"Hey guys, nice entrance. Fantastic."

"Did we scare you?"

"Yeah, you guys did! I overheard that Lusiz wanted to give me something special?"

The little mermaids looked at each other before turning their attention to Lusiz who was moving a purple vase with the lovely yellow tulip that they had promised her.

"Thank you! This means a lot to me! No one has ever been so nice to me before, well my three sisters were but this is different and I suddenly feel happy, is that normal?"

"Yes. It always feels nice to be happy even if a witch doesn't experience it often,"

After packing up her belongings and getting ready to leave she walked up to her friends, bending down to meet their eyes and tried so hard not to feel sad at the same time.

"I've never been good at saying goodbye so I'll see all of you soon I hope,"

"We hope to see you again soon too Calliope and we hope that you have a good time at Alfea."

Calla continued to walk towards the fairy school until she could see it in the near distance and ran over to the gates.

As she tried to calm her body down from breathing fast she stared at the school in amazement.

'I'm really here! This is really happening!'

However, she still wasn't sure if she should go in or not because of the fight that happened between her and the Lifeix Club but she decided to take a leap of faith and headed inside.

The three fairies noticed the witch right away and immediately got nervous, not fully knowing why Popi walked into the school like that.

"What is she doing here?"

"Maybe she wants to fight us again,"

"No, she would have attacked us fast when she even laid one eye on us."

Jennifer was excited because Calliope wanted to be a fairy instead, just like Mirta was once the witch of Illusions but soon turned into the fairy of Illusions and became good friends with the Winx.

Faragonda smiled warmly at the witch of Stones and greeted her when she walked up to her.

"Good morning Calliope, Griffin told me that you want to transfer here and learn to be a fairy instead. Is that true?"

"Yes, Miss Faragonda it is! And I hope that I can make it up to the Lifeix Club for all the bad things that I caused them."

When the both of them were out of sight Jennifer was touched by Calliope's statement and wanted to give her a chance to prove herself worthy of earning her Magic Winx.

Rain fallen from the night sky and completely soaked the blue rooftops as well as the windows of the old castle.

"I hate rain because it takes a long time for it to stop so everyone has to stay inside,"

Luna was sitting on a chair in their living room fixing one of Faragonda's shoes that got broken by mistake with her gold strings and one of her handy silver tacks.

"I'm bored too Lulu but we just have to wait until the rain stops. I have a great idea! We could have a sleepover and play pillow fights and play truth or dare,"

"That sounds like a great idea to me. What about you Jennifer?"

Jennifer said yes right away and went into the kitchen to get some buttery popcorn and diet soda.

As she got the items ready someone knocked on their door and as Li Ming turned the cold doorknob the person turned out to be Calliope.

"Calliope, what are you doing here?"

"I heard that you guys were having a sleepover and I wanted to join you guys, I mean if that's okay?"

"Yeah it's okay, come on in"

As she headed inside she immediately smelled popcorn cooking and there were lots of different colored pillows of different sizes lying around on the living room floor and soon enough, Jennifer left the kitchen with a big bowl of popcorn in her hands while Luna carried a silver tray that had four glasses of diet soda inside them.

"Calliope?"

"Hello Jenny, Li Ming said that I could join you guys."

She looked at Lulu who had a welcoming smile on her face and then at Ming who also had a smile on her face before returning to Kelly and she gripped her both of her hands while smiling as well.

"Welcome to our slumber party!"

Without knowing what she was doing the witch of Stones hugged the Ice and Snow fairy and didn't want to break the hug.

This surprised her as she didn't know that she was going to hug her but she accepted it anyway.

After pulling from the hug they sat down and started to play truth or dare.

"Luna, you start first"

"Alright, truth or dare?"

"Dare."

"I dare you to make the biggest heart that you can ever make with your gold strings"

"You're on!"

Gripping her tacks and plenty of strings she started to make the basic heart shape first then slowly but surely she made the biggest heart that Li Ming requested.

After some time she finally completed it and showed it off to the others who gave their approval.

"Wow, you did it. I'm impressed, lulu!"

"Thanks! My cobbler skills are unmatched anyways, now it's your turn Ping truth or dares?"

"Truth."

"Okay, do you like guys and if so then who?"

"To tell you all the truth no, I don't like guys because their perverts and all they want is to make love to us,"

"Not all men are like that."

"Yeah because my Xavier isn't like that and he never will be!"

"She's not saying that he is Jenny darling"

"I know but still it seemed like she was and I'm sorry if I sounded mean,"

They ate their delicious snack and looked at the TV for a little bit before getting the pillows and playfully hitting each other with them.

However, it was soon interrupted as the windows started to have thick dark green vines grow on them for no reason until they broke through and wrapped around the Lifeix but Calliope was left unharmed.

"Where are… are these things coming from!?"

A huge sapphire blue bubble floated above their heads and it engulfed them inside it, making them unable to move or get out.

"NANCY! LET US OUT!"

The Water witch only cackled, she really enjoys seeing the fairy squirm around like a trapped lab rat.

"And as for you little sister, how could you betray us for these things?!"

Kelly looked down at the ground for a moment, thinking about her words carefully before looking back up with the fierce look that she could muster.

"These things are my friends! They made me realize that there is so much more to life than fighting with other fairies or witches and they taught me how to love because all of you never ever did!"

Nancy was taken aback, after everything that they all did together Calliope, was just going to throw it all away?! Nan's eyes glowed sapphire blue. "You'll die with them too! Water bomb!"

As the water exploded on her the other three witches took care of the Lifeix Club.

"MAGIC WINX!"

When they transformed they broke out of there bubble prisons and attacked the group of witches that messed everything up.

"Sphere of oblivion,"

Purple illusions of themselves surrounded every side and corner of them until they were all trapped as well.

"Twister Fury,"

The black gust blew Pandora off the living room floor and outside on the cold hard ground but it didn't faze her as she did her attack.

Dark yellow lightning bolts came out in a wave from her spreading arms and she watched with delight as the bolts shocked her former sister. It sent millions of electricity through her entire body, making her body shake and stay in place.

"Leave her alone! Ice attack," Three crystal disks targeted Pandora with the intention of slicing her apart but of course, she flew out of the way.

"Water catcher,"

The droplets of the rain on the school grounds had its water stolen from them, making the ground below it completely bone dry and Nancy used every bit of it to attack the three fairies.

She threw another three bombs of water at them which exploded in their faces and sent them flying back into the hard wall. Calliope watched in horror as her friends got beaten down and hurt so, with teary eyes she closed them and believed in her heart that she was a fairy.

"MAGIC… WIIIIIIIIIINX!"

She glowed with a golden light as a mix of cut polished gemstones and rocks wrapped around her body. The light became so bright that the others had to shield their eyes away but when it faded away they all saw her in her Winx.

"You've hurt my friends for the last time. Golden topaz!"

The golden yellow energy beam trapped the three witches in a golden yellow topaz, diamond-shaped cage and she pushed them out of the window, as their prison broke into pieces they too were bruised and bleeding like the Lifeix Club was.

"Why is everything so loud?!"

Faragonda appeared hovering over the fallen girls, her hair had mint green curlers and she was dressed in her night clothes.

"You three will be in trouble for hurting my girls! Now hurry up and go before I make you go,"

Not having the strength to fight back they just limped through a portal instead that would take them straight to their dorms.

The Lifeix Club returned to their normal human forms, feeling completely exhausted as well.

"I'm sorry about the mess that I made Faragonda,"

"It's all right we can always fix it. But you earned your Winx Calliope and I'm very proud of you!"

Calliope felt very proud of herself to finally be a fairy and she was even more happy that she has new friends to help.

"And I'm very proud of you three as well. Now get some rest for the party tomorrow night alright?"

They all nodded their heads and headed to bed right away. The fairies had won again, for now.

~.o.0.o.~

Alone, I lean on the windowsill, my cheek resting on my palm staring at the endless rain.

I've been alone all day.

I wonder what you're doing right now…

The memories I collect are precious treasures, making my heart wrench.

Ah, isn't strange? Just remembering makes me affectionate.

Just like honey spreading out sweetly in warm milk my heart dissolves.

You're smile is the finest honey.

Looking up in the sky at Orion's ruby, in my very own planetarium.

Welcome back again tonight.

When we're together, I can't gaze at the stars.

Now let's zoom up 100 thousand times and draw in the sky.

Ah, isn't it wonderful? It's like you're always by my side.

On nights when I can only curl up and cry sad tears, you give me courage.

Your smile is the finest honey.

I spread my wings wide and alight from heaven, like a star-filled sky.

I can be strong!

Your smile is my very own honey.
