This has got to be the worst ending yet, and I am sorry for not updating right away. Writer's block got to me, hope you guys like this.


Chapter 10: The reveal?

RIVEN POV

The guys, one by one, entered the dorm. Brandon was crimson red with his hand over his mouth, Nabu had his mouth flung open, Helia was as pale as a dead person, Timmy was trying to clean his glasses, and Sky looked really confused.

I was on the couch, my feet flat on the ground and my hands on my face. What the heck just happened? Crescendo? He was... No she.. He?

"H-h-hey" I coughed and cleared my throat.

The guys sat on the couch and joined me in my awe state. I took my phone out and looked at the screen, 1 new message appeared.

"Baby! I can't wait to see you! Love you lots -Musa"

So it wasn't her? Was it? Fairies are such complicated beings!

Timmy stood up and got his phone out as well, he started dialing some stuff and placed it on his ear. He gulped and sweated, we all stared at him.

"T-t-tecna!" Timmy stuttered in disbelief. "Y-yeah, no, I... Yeah... What? Later? Why? Uhmm.. Okay then, s-see you"

He sat back down and exhaled, we just watched him and waited for an answer. If he got a call from Tecna and I got a text from Musa saying something about seeing each other then that means their out of detention, or they might have just snuck out.

"What's up specs?" I smiled at Timmy.
"Th-the girls, they want to meet up with us later." Timmy's face went red.
"That's great" Brandon didn't sound too excited, he seemed else where.

Heck each of us didn't seem too excited, I was still bothered with the whole issue with Crescendo.

"Guys, I need to tell you something" Helia had his old color again, but he still looked freaked out.
"Same here" Nabu added.
"Okay, so do I" I laughed the awkwardness out.

Timmy, Sky, and Brandon had the same face, it was like they had something to say as well.

"Wow, are we all in the same topic here?" Sky raised his arms.
"I think so" Timmy gulped.
"Don't jump to conclusions, Helia, what were you gonna say?" Brandon tried to act calm, but he was still red so that was just a fail.
"W-well, it's about Florence" Helia had this freaked out look on his face.
"Seriously?" Sky pointed "I was going to say something about Blake"
"I-it was just a coincidence" Brandon brushed Sky's announcement.
"Lance was my topic as well" Nabu scratched his head and coughed.
"I had some... Surprising experience with Lexus" Timmy nervously chuckled.
"Crescendo for me" I raised my hand.

Brandon pouted like a little girl, his face bright red while he played with his fingers. He shifted his direction to the door to escape our sight and sighed, Sky patted his knight to be and gave him a thumbs up.

"I just miss Stella" Brandon spoke up, he took out his wallet and looked at a picture of the loud mouth fairy.
"So Astrum and you had an intimate moment?" I grinned at him, but, Brandon just turned more red and looked away.
"Wh-what did you do?" Sky stared at him, his eyes widened and a smile crept on his face.
"N-nothing! Maybe we... Well... I just miss Stella! Get over it!" Brandon pushed Sky and grunted, he was so acting like chick.
"Dude, what the heck did you do?" Nabu slapped Brandon's back.

He didn't say anything, just a very awkward silence filled the gap in the room.

"If he won't talk then I'll start this little mystery we have" Helia sat up and got comfortable.

We turned our attention to him, including Brandon, and looked at his uneasy face. Helia was biting his lip while trying to focus his eyes on us, but it was really weird that we were doing this. Even if this was an open forum, guys just don't do things like this.

"You see, Florence and I went to the greenhouse" Helia started. "We were having some afternoon tea and I decided to take a stroll, I was reminiscing about Flora."
"And then?" Timmy snapped his fingers at the distracted pacifist.
"Th-then I heard someone, I ran to it cause the person sounded like Flora." Helia suddenly blushed "And I think it was her, I saw Florence healing some plants just like Flora. He was the one who yelled, it was Flora's voice no doubt about it."
"Just like with Lexus!" Timmy reacted "I heard him talk and he sounded just. Like. Tecna."
"You two were just in the moment!" Brandon spoke up.
"Don't mind him, he's just a puss without Stella" Sky laughed, he patted Brandon's back but he just shrugged it off.
"What about Bloom? Don't you miss her?" he yelled.
"Chill man, go and flirt with Astrum that'll calm you down" I laughed and stretched my feet.

Brandon gritted his teeth and began to growl, his fist all clenched up as he stared at the ground with cold eyes.

"I did! So what if Astrum and I kissed? I didn't hate it all!" Brandon furrowed his eyebrows at us and growled, he looked pretty embarrassed but at the same time proud.
"Dude, are you serious? You kissed Astrum?" I laughed, even if he was mad there was no one stopping me from making fun of him.
"No, he kissed me" Brandon suddenly calmed down and sat back, thought for a moment and raised his eyebrow. "Now that you mention it, he started the kiss"
"Gayness overload man" Nabu laughed, he slapped his forehead and patted Brandon's back
"Shut up!" Brandon punched Nabu and was headed for the door.

3 guys with their heads bowed were standing outside our door, it was the guys in the bathroom. Jake, Sam, and Dan didn't look at us, they gestured us to come out the dorm.

"What?" I grinned at the ashamed boys, freshmen's are so proud when they're not in front of you.
"You don't expect us to understand you if you don't say anything?" Nabu came from behind me and smiled at them.
"So do speak up 1st years" Sky joined in.

The twins, Sam and Jake, pushed Dan in front of us and backed away. Dan glared at his two friends and gave us an obvious fake smile, he gulped and wiped the sweat that was going to fall.

"Head master Saladin wants to talk to you guys" Dan softly spoke, the boy looked so scared.
"Okay" I leaned forward and glared at him "Now, disappear"

Dan backed away and pushed the twins, they ran down the hall and we went back inside the dorm.

We could go see Saladin later, right now we needed to solve the mystery about our little buddies.

"Let's wrap this up" I sat back down and rubbed my hands together.
"So, what'd you do?" Brandon groaned at me.

But again, someone knocked on the door. I went over and growled, the stupid freshmen will get a piece from me now.

"I told you, disappear!" I yelled.

A small figure stood in front of me, I backed away and smiled. It was Miss Ferogonda.

"Nice to see you too, Riven" the old lady entered out dorm.
"Sorry" I laughed it out.

We entered the common room and the guys gasped at the sight, it was really odd seeing her in the room. We were more used to young girls in our dorm, not an old fairy.

"Hey Miss Ferogonda, what brings you here?" Helia extended his hand to her.
Miss Ferogonda happily accepted and smiled at him "I'm here to take you guys outside, we need to discuss something with your head master."
"We were just about to leave actually" Brandon stood up.
"Very well, let's go then" the old Lady exited the room,

We all followed her out, the guys and I can just talk about this later. Right now maybe the girls are here, maybe Miss Ferogonda brought them here. Oh man! I get to see my Musa again!

Outside Red Fountain stood Head Master Saladin, only him. That sent my hopes crashing down, another mission is coming up since the two members of the company of light wanted to talk to us.

"What's up?" I groaned.
"Manners Riven" Helia whispered.

Headmaster Saladin smiled at us, he waved his dragon staff and a portal appeared. We all stared and waited for something to appear.

"You boys deserve this" Headmaster Saladin smiled.

Bloom, Stella, Flora, Layla, Tecna, and Musa stepped out of the portal. Each of them looked really different, something was new.

"M-musa?" I stared at her, I needed to process this.

The guys and I had our mouths hung open, what the heck just happened? Something felt weird, it was like a big chunk of mystery was removed.

"Riven!" Musa ran towards me and tackled me for a hug.

She pressed her lips against mine and I was really lost. I needed answers.

"Whoa! Whoa! Whoa!" I pushed Musa and sat up.
"Riv?" she smiled at me.
"What the heck is going on?" I looked at everyone.

Stella and Brandon were still making out, Helia had Flora in his arms, Tecna and Timmy were hugging, Layla and Nabu were looking at each other, while Bloom was clinging behind Sky.

"Can someone explain things?" Sky swung Bloom around and she was now facing us.
"I too am confused" Timmy rubbed his eyes.
"Where are the boys?" Brandon broke free from Stella.

The girls smiled and ignored our questions, they just resumed what they were doing to us again. I heard the old headmasters laugh, did they know something as well?

"The boys left, they didn't bother saying good bye since they were in a hurry" Miss Ferogonda laughed.
"But at least the girls are here" Saladin laughed as well.

He does have a point, I don't need to think about Crescendo. Musa's here now, I can just leave that whole weird incident behind me.

I looked at Musa and noticed what changed, it was her hair. It somehow got short, softer, and it smelled like strawberry.

All the girls had similar changes, Bloom, Stella and Flora had their long hair up until their back now. Layla's side hair was up until her cheeks but it would usually be longer and her curly hair was a bit straight. Tecna's hair was the same as freshmen years, it was weird now because her hair was up to her shoulders.

"Make over?" I looked at Musa.
"Aw baby, you noticed" she blushed.
"It looks nice" I smiled at her, her long pigtails were just reaching her breasts but I still liked it.
"I missed you!" Musa tackled me again.

Suddenly a loud roar was heard, we all turned our heads and saw the ogre from before. The same ogre that got us in this whole mess at the first place, it was payback time.

"Sorry girls, we'll just take care of this" Sky pounced in to action.
"No worries, come get us when your done" Bloom kissed Sky's cheek.
"I'll miss you Brandon!" Stella made a portal.
"See you later, sunshine" Brandon grinned.
"Be careful, Helia" Flora took his hand.
"For you Flora, I will" Helia kissed Flora's hand.
"I'll finish up fast Tec, we can catch up later" Timmy saluted.
"Don't break any bones, okay?" Tecna joked and hugged Timmy.
"Good luck" Layla gave Nabu a kiss on the cheek.
"And that kiss was all I need" Nabu smiled at her.

I looked at Musa, I felt bad leaving her again. But she seemed pretty happy, like the whole ogre thing wasn't bothering her at all.

"I'll see you later baby" she whispered and kissed my cheek.
"I love you" I gave her a quick but tight embrace.

The girls left and we looked at each other, everyone had smiles on their faces.

"I AM SO NOT GAY!" Brandon ran to the ogre.

MUSA POV

Everything went better than expected, at least the guys weren't that pushy. The girls and I entered our room, how I felt so alive being here again.

Tecna was sitting on the couch, watching something that caught my curiosity.

"What'cha watching?" I peeked.
"The boys" Tecna smiled.
"Ohh! Some live action" Stella squealed and sat next to Tecna. "Layla, Bloom, Flo! Get your butts in here and watch with us!"

Tecna rolled her eyes and widened the screen, the guys were actually winning this time.

"What's up?" Layla jumped next to Tecna.

Flora and Bloom entered and took their seats as well, we all watched as the boys fought the hideous green ogre.

Riven and Helia were distracting the beast while Sky and Brandon were trying to slash it. Timmy was giving out the battle strategy while Nabu was shooting some magic at it, we were enjoying the show.

Just then Riven, Helia, Sky, and Brandon were knocked away.

"You guys okay?" Nabu was in the air looking down.
"Managing!" Riven laughed, that cocky airhead.

The ogre grabbed Nabu's feet and spun him to the ground.

"Nabu!" Layla cried out.

Timmy ran to Nabu but the ogre swatted him away. It threw Timmy towards the camera and static was shown. What the heck just happened?


a sequel is running through my mind :) This is THE END of gender bender but a new adventure will be written.

A new transformation awaits the boys in the up coming story, so thank you for supporting GENDER BENDER! :D
