CHAPTER 10: The Hint to Nowhere
"Please Bloom, sit down. We have much to discuss. Sugar or cream?" Miss Faragonda held a cup to Bloom. She took it, waving her hand over it subtly, changing it to lemonade. She had never been a tea kind of girl. Miss Faragonda smiled. Bloom shifted awkwardly in her seat. Being in this room reminded her of all the times she got into trouble when she was a student here. She glanced up to see the headmistress looking out the vast window. Bloom straightened up, ready to fight for Roxy to come with her. She opened her mouth.
"Take care of her. I feel much potential in her. She should also be reaching her Charmix soon. This may be the perfect opportunity. I expect you to keep up her studies and if she is behind on anything when she gets back, so help me Bloom!" Miss Faragonda turned around slowly. It was now that Bloom realized how old Miss Faragonda had gotten. Her face was worn and full of sadness. Her shoulders were slightly hunched and she had a cane sitting against her desk. Bloom stood up gently and smiled.
"I haven't let you down yet. I don't plan to start now. You have my word." With that, Bloom turned on her heels and sped down the corridors to Roxy's room. She was so excited to tell Roxy, she didn't notice the headmistress walk from behind her desk to the mirrored door that led to a room filled with both past and future. Nor did Bloom see how worried Miss Faragonda really was. And Bloom definitely never saw the mirror flash to a scene where a pink haired girl was fighting a two faced monster. On Earth.
