It was an hour later. Roxy had gotten through half of the buildings around the Rosewood Garden. She hadn't felt a force pull her to any one of them.
Roxy felt like giving up. But she knew she couldn't. This was her chance to prove herself to the Winx. She sighed as she pushed open the doors to a desolate building and walked inside. Just this last one, she thought, and then she'd take a break.
--
The lobby of the building was abandoned. Roxy walked around, but she didn't see anything.
This isn't the place, she thought, and was about to leave when suddenly she spotted a heavy wooden door.
Suddenly, she felt a magical force draw her towards the door.
"I was wrong," she muttered under her breath, and began to dial Stella's number. Then, Stella would notify the other Winx. They'd all be here very, very soon.
--
10 minutes later, Roxy paced the floor impatiently. Where was everyone? She took out her phone and was about to call when a bright light came from the wall.
"Guys!" Roxy rushed over excitedly. She expected the Winx to come out. They didn't.
"Hello Roxy," said Icy, Darcy and Stormy, pushing past her. Icy looked around the lobby.
"I don't see where the room could be," said Darcy. "Are you sure this is the right place?"
"Definitely," said Icy. She walked around the room and froze. "Sisters, come to me," she whispered. "And hold on to me tight. I will take us to the room." And with a flash of light, the Trix disappeared.
--
Roxy couldn't wait any longer! If she did, the Trix might get the key! She had to act now. She had to get to the room. She pushed open the big wooden door. The room which she found herself in was black. Roxy sighed. This wasn't the room.
Suddenly, she heard Nebula's voice in her head.
"It's hidden in a door Roxy," she said.
Roxy ran over to the door. She tried to think about how the room good be hidden in the door. She felt the edge of the door. Roxy felt a line. She pushed her nail on the line and to her surprise, the door began to split into half. One half of the door fell off and the other half was left. And on the half left standing, there was a portal.
"This must be the way to the room!" Roxy exclaimed, and walked straight into the portal.
--
The room was like the poem said. The walls shone and glittered. The floor was rocky and red. And there was a table in the centre that was probably made of sapphire. It was beautiful.
But, the Trix were already there. And they had the key.
Roxy gasped as she watched the Trix unlock the box. She was too scared to do anything. She watched as they lifted up a small vial made of silver. She watched as Icy flipped the lid open and lifted it to her lips.
And then she acted completely on impulse.
She ran over to Icy and tripped her up. She grabbed the vial. But the Trix were too strong for her. There was only one way for them to stop them from getting it and the power that lay within it. She lifted it to her lips...and drank.
--
The glow that came from Roxy made Icy shade her eyes. She wondered what was happening. Then she realized. That little Winx brat had DRUNK the liquid. She had the power.
A strong wind was generated by Roxy. It blew the Trix away. But before she was blown away, Icy swore revenge.

1 day later
"YOU DID IT ROXY!" Bloom screamed, hugging Roxy. "You saved everyone! All by yourself."
"The Trix hunted us down to make sure that we wouldn't get the key," said Stella. "They were tying me up when you called and they traced the call to find you."
"You led them straight to the key," said Layla. "But you managed to stop them!"
"I'm sorry about how I was so mean to you," said Musa.
"It's alright," said Roxy.
Bloom walked up to Roxy.
"I'd like you to have this," she said, presenting Roxy with a small jewellery box. Roxy opened it to find a beautiful silver ring with a dog carved on it inside.
"You are a true Winx," said Bloom, smiling. "You are an official part of the group. You proved yourself."
Roxy hugged Bloom, and then the rest of the Winx.
She had never felt happier in her entire life.
DONE! Appartenente is finished. I hope you liked it!
