Sierra's POV
I flew all the way to the hotel, hoping to escape my thoughts. About 5 minutes later, May and Misty joined me. I could clearly hear Bubba's voice outside the door.
"Hello Miss May and Misty, Miss Sierra is inside"
Bubba has always been a good body guard since day 1, ever since we started our career. He even knows that we're fairies, so he isn't always in our business. He doesn't like to get into our business, and we even taught him what to do if someone comes looking for us.
"Hey guys" I said sadly as my friends came and sat down on the couch next to me. They didn't say anything, they just hugged me.
"We're so sorry, Si" May cried as she started to cry, "We know how betrayed you feel"
"Its alright. Let's just not speak to them, okay?"
"Okay" They both said in unison. We were about to get up when we heard the intercom make that annoying dinging noise.
Buzz
I exhaled with annoyance as I went to the intercom station, "What is it, Bubba?"
"Uh, Miss Sierra. There are some people here to see you, Miss May and Miss Misty"
That was pretty much how we taught him what to do.
"Did you scan them? You know why we tell you to scan any visitors that are unknown to you"
"No need to. Miss Rocksand's sister is here"
"WHAT!" I was dead angry, "What does she want?" I spat, but still calmer.
"Uh, well, you see...um"
"Spit it out, Bubba" I could even tell I was getting bored with this conversation.
"There are four other people here with her"
"Hm, lemme guess. They're wearing all black?"
"Yep"
"Does one of them have a hat and another one have a mohawk?"
"Uh-huh"
Misty smirked and called out, "Its the cowboy!"
There was a pause, but we could hear Bubba's voice speaking to someone else.
"Uh-huh. Okay. The one with the hat says that he's not a cowboy and that Miss Misty is a...monkey"
May and I couldn't hide our laughter, but Misty came to the intercom.
"BUBBA!"
"It was his words not mine!" Bubba is really scared of us when we're mad, as you can see.
Misty exhaled with annoyance, "Still, what do they want"
Before Bubba could answer, May came to the intercom as well, "Just let them in, Bubba. We'll handle this ourselves"
"Okay, Miss May"
There was another buzzing noise, signaling us and our unwanted visitors to open the now unlocked door. As suspected, the wizards and Roxy came in, but the wizards were actually brave enough to come without disguise spells on.
Misty walked up to Gantlos and started to poke him in the chest roughly, "Who are you calling a monkey?"
I rolled my eyes as I pulled her back to be beside me. May also got beside me, "What do you want?" I spat, with no sign of sympathy whatsoever.
"We just came to talk to you" Ogron was actually looking me in the eyes, without a sign of hatred...for once.
"Why?" Misty looked at Roxy with stone cold gray eyes, "Haven't your lovely friends the Winx done enough?"
"H-How did your eyes change color?" Roxy was frightened, which made us all more upset.
"You mean like this?" May changed her eye color to gold. It may sound pretty, but she looked quite dangerous to everyone who saw her, so I changed my eye color to pitch black again.
"Just be glad we aren't in our Mis-Believix" Misty said as she approached Roxy slowly as well did May and I, which caused Roxy to back away. We were about to be straight in front of her, but the wizards got in our way.
"Stop it, now" Anagan said sternly.
"You think that's gonna stop us. Her so called friends didn't believe Sierra and tested her, thinking she would harm them"
"Exactly. So this is the new plan: We heal Rocksand, go to Jason Queen's wedding, and leave"
Roxy gently pushed the wizards out of the way so she was face-to-face with me, "I know that you're mad, but you can't-"
Buzz
Misty, May, and I all exhaled with annoyance as we all approached the intercom, "What is it, Bubba? We're busy" Misty said through gritted teeth.
"I'm very sorry, Miss Misty, but there are some people here, and they have Miss Rocksand"
We froze, Misty didn't take her finger off the intercom,
"Miss Misty?"
"Uh, yeah. Let them in"
Beep
The door opened to reveal the Winx standing at our door way, and Layla was holding Rocksand. I held my arms out, and she placed her in my arms. I carried her over to the couch without a word and layed her down. I turned to to the Winx.
"Is this your version of a peace offering?" I crossed my arms.
Like before, Stella had held out the little bag that contained the supplies needed to cure Rocksand. I looked at it, and Stella stood there with her arm held out so I signaled Misty to take it, and she did.
"We're really sorry, Sierra. For what we had done to you" Musa apologized. The Winx all agreed with her.
I walked over to the window and sat in the frame, and surprisingly, it was big enough to be a chair. I could feel everyone looking at me, waiting for my answer as I felt Misty and May walk towards me. They stayed by my side and Misty held out the bag to me, and I looked up at her to see that her and May's were back to normal and filled with tears.
"She wouldn't want you to be angry, Sierra"
I felt a tear run down my cheek and Misty wiped it away and hugged me. I hugged her back and I looked at the Winx.
"I just want to know why you did it"
They all rubbed their necks, "Well, it wasn't meant for you actually. The wizards were supposed to be the ones to take the bag, but Stella messed up" Tecna explained.
"Well sorry"
We slightly laughed as the wizards crossed their arms and glared at the Winx, making them be quiet. I plucked the card out of the bag.
"Answer, The Hunger Games"
Answer: The Hunger Games
Favorite character?
Answer:
Misty smiled and took the card, "Answer, Rue"
Answer: Rue
You girls are doing great, and I'm almost back. Next, take the weapon that ended me and place it on the gift and the four other gifts.
What type of song did Katniss sing to Rue when she died?
Answer:
The Winx watched as we set the coffee table up for the spell.
"You guys work fast" Layla said as the Winx sat on the other couch across from Rocksand.
"Thanks. We do our best to remember if it means we get our friend back" May said as she went up to Ogron, "We need it now." Ogron nodded as he made the clasp knife appear in a small cloud of smoke.
"Be careful, May. You know what happens to you and Rocksand when you get too close to dark energy" Misty warned.
May nodded as she quickly grabbed the knife and clutched the handle, "Got it. Get the necklaces and the music"
I nodded as Misty and I reached in the bag, and I pulled out two necklaces as Misty pulled out the other two. I held mine and Rocksand's while Misty pulled out her's and May's. The charms on all of them were golden and silver heart with our names in cursive engraved in black. First we opened the charms and the papers landed on the table this time, all in order layed out on their backs. We placed the matching necklaces for every two pages on top of them and May placed the knife on Rocksand's papers.
"This is most likely how Rocksand would place the order. And as for the song, I don't remember what type of song it was" Misty admitted.
I thought about it for a while, "It was a lullaby"
The girls and I looked at each other, "You don't think"
"She probably did" May said as she turned the knife's blade to face Rocksand, "I can feel its energy getting stronger, Sierra. You can't get worked up, seeing that you're the one who made the knife, it channels through your energy"
I nodded as I answered the card, "Answer, lullaby"
Answer: Lullaby
Sing the lullaby to make the opposite song appear.
I had tears in my eyes as May, Misty, and I had tears in our eyes as we started to sing:
Me:
Deep in the meadow, under the willow
A bed of grass, a soft green pillow
Lay down your head, and close your eyes
And when they open, the sun will rise
Misty:
Here it's safe, and here it's warm
Here the daisies guard you from every harm
Here your dreams are sweet
and tomorrow brings them true
Here is the place where I love you.
May:
Deep in the meadow, hidden far away
A cloak of leaves, a moonbeam ray
Forget your woes and let your troubles lay
And when again it's morning, they'll wash away
All:
Here it's safe, and here it's warm
Here the daisies guard you from every harm
Here your dreams are sweet
and tomorrow brings them true
Here is the place where I love you.
Ba da da da da da
Ba da da da da da
Da da da da da
Ba da da da da da
Da da da da da
Here is the place where I love you.
As we finished the song, the knife started to float, along with the necklaces, and then the papers started to float as well.
"What's happening?" Roxy asked as the paper started swirling round and round and combined into one.
"Wait for it" Stella kept saying as the paper started to settle down and the rest on the table, but the knife was now on Rocksand's stomach. Roxy was about to pick it up, but I softly grabbed her hand.
"Its supposed to go there." She nodded as everyone crowded around the table. We noticed that the paper was now covered in words, but no music notations. I looked over the words;something seemed familiar about them.
"Girls," Roxy started, "I think we're at the end of the riddle." I looked at the card and sure enough, there was one instruction at the end of the notecard. I read it aloud:
I am so proud of you girls. I understand that I've missed a lot the past couple days, but I thank you for sticking through it to the end.
The last thing you must do is transfer the dark energy from the knife into me, and do it while you sing the lullaby.
Hurry, its almost my deadline.
"That's what it is!" I yelled as I looked at the sheet and handed it to May and Misty, "Don't you remember this"
They looked at it and I saw their eyes widen, "Isn't this-" May started, but I cut her off with a nod.
"What is it?" Anagan asked as he and the wizards sat on the stools in our kitchen. You'd be surprised by how high maintenance this hotel is.
"Its a lullaby," Misty explained, "Rocksand would always sing this to us whenever we couldn't sleep. But its in Spanish"
"You don't need to know Spanish, you just need to know how to pronounce it" Stella said as she crossed her legs.
I nodded as I got out my acoustic guitar and rested it on my lap, "Hope this works"
"Of course it'll work," said Musa as she smiled, "because as the fairy of music, I think its best to say that you all are perfectly harmonized together"
"Agreed," said Flora, "So you should give it a try"
I nodded as I started to play my guitar softly, causing the knife to lift off of Rocksand's body and started to transfer its energy.

A la nanita nana, nanita nana, nanita ella
Mi niña tiene sueño, bendito sea, bendito sea
A la nanita nana, nanita ella, nanita ella
Mi niña tiene sueño, bendito sea, bendito sea
Fuentecita, que corre clara y sonora
Ruiseñor que en la selva cantando llora
Calla meintras la cuna se balancea
A la nanita nana, nanita ella
A la nanita nana, nanita nana, nanita ella
Mi niña tiene sueño bendito sea, bendito sea
Fuentecita, que corre clara y sonora
Ruiseñor que en la selva cantando llora
Calla mientras la cuna se balancea
A la nanita nana, {nanita ella}
Surprised by the new voice, I put my guitar down on the couch and Misty, May and I looked at the table to see the knife. I looked up to the couch, where my eyes met a pair of purple amethysts...
Hi everyone, thnx for all the viewers who read the story, and its almost over, just a couple more chapters. Oh yeah, and remember what Mark said the day he left Love & Pet. Remember what he said about him and Rocksand.
