Chapter 12
Hello, here is the new chapter. For clarification, Ember's wings are similar to Flora's (with that I mean shape, so you can visualise it better).
Here is a link to what Bailey's dress looks like:

Ember was happy to see the familiar sight of Earth again. An excited giggle escaped her, Flora smiling as she looked up from a book she was reading. 'Happy to be back? Even for a little while?' Ember nodded excitedly, happiness radiating from her. 'It is sad I cannot see my Aunt Susanna though. But that will be for another day.' Flora nodded. 'We're here!' Bloom exclaimed, pointing to a house. 'This is where my parents on Earth live!' she gestured to Ember, Ember nodding. 'Thank you for letting me stay at your house, Bloom.' Bloom smiled and squeezed her shoulder, turning around and than knocking on the door. 'Well, it was on Queen Nebula's request you came with us, so it seems normal to me that you are allowed to stay at my house for the night.' Ember grinned, looking up in surprise as a bright light appeared next to her. An older lady, gentle-looking and completely dressed in rose colours, appeared next to her. Musa laughed as Ember eeped and almost fell backwards, if not for Layla catching her. 'That is our fairy godmother.' Musa admonished, smile still on her face. 'This is Ember, another fairy from Alfea.' Ember smiled awkwardly as she dusted herself off, extending a hand the fairy godmother gladly took. 'Nice to meet you, I'm Eldora.' she smiled. Ember's embarrasment went away, soon replaced by laughter. 'I'm Ember, nice to meet you!'
'Bloom, you're here! And the Winx!' Ember watched as Bloom was engulfed by a woman, by what Ember presumed was her adoptive mother. 'It's good to see you mum.' Bloom smiled, ushering everyone in. 'Dad!' Bloom grinned, hugging the man fiercely. 'I hope you don't mind I brought an extra fairy. She is here on Queen Nebula's demand.' Vanessa nodded, smiling at Ember. 'Thank you for letting me stay the night.' Vanessa shook her head. 'That's okay. And who is that?' Vanessa asked, looking at Eldora. 'This is our fairy godmother, Eldora.' Eldora laughed excitedly. 'What a blessed day to meet Bloom's parents!' she exclaimed, the Winx looking on confused. 'Oh yes, Sunday is a great day to meet my parents.' Bloom said, seemingly a bit confused still. 'Now now Bloom, I may not hail from these parts but even I know it is Mother's day!' Eldora tutted, Bloom's expression paling. 'Oh, I completely forgot! I'm so sorry, Happy Mother's day, mum!' Vanessa smiled softly as she accepted Bloom's hug.
After Eldora had gifted Vanessa with a special plant and all of them had eaten something, they all went upstairs to Bloom's room. Ember sat down on a little plush stool that was in a corner, waiting for Eldora to speak. Normally this was none of her business, but since Nebula had insisted she come to Tir Na Nog, the Winx did not have much of a choice to involve her. Ember liked to think they trusted her enough to know she would never tell any of what she heard if they asked her to keep silent.
'To lock the Legendarium we need an item that also came from the Legendarium world.' Musa nodded, a hopeful smile on her face. 'And I suppose you are going to tell us where to find this item?' Eldora nodded, searching through her papers. 'For this, we need certain artefacts that should be on Tir Na Nog. However I have searched the island from top to bottom but found nothing.' Stella stood up and grinned. 'Luckily we have friends who can help us with that. Are you ready to go? You too Ember?' Ember looked up from the message she had typed to her aunt (Happy Mother's day!) and smiled. 'Yes, ofcourse.'
Tir Na Nog college was truthfully a wonder to behold. If she hadn't gone to alfea, she'd probably have ended up here. 'Winx! It is so good to see you!' they heard a voice say, belonging to the fairy who was walking down the stairs. 'Nebula, it is so good to see you!' Laila exclaimed, hugging the queen. 'I love what you have done with the place!' Tecna said, looking around. Nebula nodded. 'We were inspired by you and wanted to help fairies like you.' Flora stood next to Ember, clearing her throat. 'This is Ember Diamondweather, whom you requested come as well.' On Flora's urging Ember walked forward, nodding at Nebula. 'Yes, indeed. You look a lot like your father and mother both.' Ember didn't know what to say to that. 'I have something to discuss with you, but first the Winx and I need to talk.' Ember nodded. 'Ember!' she heard a voice say, seeing Bailey running down the stairs. 'I trust you'll be able to keep yourself busy until we're done?' Bloom said, Ember nodding and going towards Bailey. Her old classmate grinned and dragged her upstairs.
When they were seated on Bailey's bed, said girl grinned. 'I like your room a lot. And your outfit! Is it your schooluniform?' Bailey nodded. 'And how is school?' 'Well...' As time passed and the girls discussed what had happened to them, they didn't see Cloud Tower approaching. At once, a sound like thunder and lightning came from outside, effectively making the school tremble. 'This cannot be good!' Bailey's worried gaze locked on the window, eyes growing bigger. 'Is that a castle?' Ember's head wipped around, groaning as she saw what was coming. 'That is Cloud Tower!' Both girls stood up and ran downstairs, seeing several girls of the school standing next to Nebula as she gave orders. 'You stay inside, we'll go help outside. You're not strong enough to beat the Trix. But I'm sure you can make yourself useful here.' Bloom said, making Ember smile as she followed Nebula out of the doors.
'Did she really say that?' someone muttered. 'She is right. The Trix are extremely powerful. Even with Charmix there is not much damage I could, we could do. But we can try to defend the school.' Bailey nodded as did her classmates. 'Let's transform than. I, Bailey fairy of rain, call upon my transformation!' Bailey exclaimed, a clear blueish light enveloping her. Ember smiled as her friend transformed. Bailey's green hair put itself in a ponytail, her outfit consisted of a blue almost white top and short and highheeled boots. Blue wings grew out of her back at the end. 'My turn. Transformation!' Ember called out, transforming. 'Charmix!' she called out, her jewel and pouch appearing. She figured she could use every advantage she had.
The air was thick with tension as they waited in the hallway, sounds of fighting coming from outside. A girl let out a frightful breath, the other girls feeling their nerves rising. They heard a commotion outside and an exclamation of 'they got in the school!'. 'Everyone, prepare yourselves!' Bailey called out, a white light forming around her hands. 'Are you ready to dance fairies?' they heard a voice giggle, two witches flying in. 'Give it your all, attack all at once!' Bailey screamed, all the fairies shooting their attacks at the same time at the witches. 'Windelegy!' Ember fired one of her strongest charmix attacks at the witches, but it did nothing. 'This is not possible!' a girl behind them muttered, as the smoke of their attacks dissapated and the witches were still standing there. 'They don't even have a scratch!' Ember muttered, nerves increasing. 'Don't give up, keep your attacks coming! Rainshower!' Bailey moved her hands, something like waterdrops forming around her. With a flick of her wrist, the waterdrops attacked the witches, causing them to cry out in pain. 'Damn you! Take this!' Ember's eyes widened as Bailey flew backwards, landing against a wall. 'Aargh!'
Several girls gasped in fear, abandoning them and fleeing into the school. 'No, don't give up!' Ember called out, but who could blame them. Some were not older than fifteen and were scared to death. 'You are all alone. What are you going to do?' The witch with the blue outfit singsonged, her friend bursting out in maniacal laughter. 'Airbarrier!' Ember formed a shield around herself and Bailey, seeing her friend had regained consciousness. 'Are you okay?' Bailey coughed and nodded, shaking her head. 'A bit bruised, but I've known worse. Together we should be able to take them on. I'll attack them, you form a shield around us to keep us save.' Ember agreed with the new plan, standing behind Bailey and forming a barrier around them. Bailey closed her eyes in concentration, the air around them swirling. 'I call upon the rain to help me defeat this enemy!' Ember's mouth fell open when water from everywhere formed around Bailey. Her eyes opened, the big spiral of water swirling around her in circles. 'Raindance!' she screamed out, throwing the swirls of water at the witches. 'See how you can handle this!' Ember threw a barrage of blew airballs at the witches, all the while keeping her shield up. 'You think you can defeat us... Come on!' The witch said, eyes widening when another voice piped up. 'But this time they are not alone! Volcanic attack!' Bloom grinned, Ember exclaiming in surprise 'Bloom!'.
'Damn you, Winx!' the witches cursed out as they went flying away, Bailey and her classmates wooping in happiness. 'Thank you for your help, Bloom! It was a close call!' Ember smiled, squeezing Bloom's shoulder. 'You're welcome, Ember. You did well!' Ember nodded, eyes widening in fear behind Bloom. Bloom screamed in pain and fell on her knees, none else than a witch with green hair attacking her. 'Long time no see, Bloom!' she smirked evilly, eyes locking on Ember. 'Let her go, you witch!' Bailey cursed, throwing a white swirling ball of power at her. 'You're working me on my nerves. Get out of my sight!'
Bailey and Ember were thrown away from Bloom and against a wall, both girls losing their breaths in the process. 'I can't breathe! Let me go! It hurts!' Ember groaned out, squirming in pain. Bailey had started screaming as well, the green snake around her becoming tighter and tighter. I cannot do anything! Ember thought as Bailey was screaming. I can't breathe! I'm useless yet again! Her eyes started to go black at the edges as she started to lose consciousness. And than the pressure disappeared. Bailey had in her final moments of consciousness managed to attack the snake that had been cutting off Ember's airsupply. 'Bailey? Bailey?!' Ember screamed, tears running down her eyes. 'YOU!' she felt air swirling around her, but this time she embraced it. Ember's eyes turned completely blue, mouth cracking an evil smile. 'You went too far... You will pay! AIRSTORM!' The air in the hallway became wild, the wind blowing extremely hard. The snake around Bailey dissipated, Selina falling backwards. Ember's concentration was broken when a light, changing from white to blue, engulfed Bailey. Selina looked on as well, giving Bloom a chance to stand up. 'Asheron cannot help you. I will not let you free him! Vortex flamestorm burst!' Selina flew backwards against a pillar, knocked out cold. 'What is that?' Bloom said as she and Ember looked on. 'Enchantix?'
Bailey's hair formed itself in two low ponytails on each side of her head, a tiara-like crown forming on her head with a white jewel in the middle. A long white dress formed around her body, the dress almost coming to her feet. Lightblue gloves formed around her arms, a blue belt with a teardropshaped bottle forming around her waist. White strands that came up to her knees were connected to her sandals, a light blue jewel in the form of a teardrop between her big toe and the rest. Long earrings in the shape of teardrops formed on Bailey's ears, light blue of colour. At last, whitish eye make up and lipgloss appeared on her eyes and lips, big blue wings growing out of her back. 'Bailey, fairy of rain!' A smile grew on Ember's lips, relief immense when she saw her friend was allright. 'You look amazing!' Ember grinned, hugging Bailey. 'Thank you, you were wonderful as well. You...Ember?'
Ember gasped as a dark blue hue enveloped her, lighting up the entire hallway. You earned it, my darling. You've come so far. This time it was a female voice, a voice Ember only remembered in her dreams. When Ember opened her eyes she could see an all too familiar diamond in the distance, it's light casting itself on Ember. Ember felt a silver tiara form on her forehead, a dark blue diamond in the middle of it, a tearshaped jewel hanging from the diamond. Light blue eyeshadow appeared on her eyelids, her lips becoming a light pink colour. Her hair put itself in two long fishtail braids, starting from her forehead. Silver gloves formed around her arms and hands, followed by a dark blue top without sleeves and a skirt. A sideways piece of fabric (like in Layla's first transformation) connected her top and skirt. Sandals formed on her feet, the strands of a lightblue colour and the diamond between her big toe and the rest of her toes a dark blue hue, in the form of a cloud. Her bottle of fairydust attached itself to her skirt on her hip, it being of a white colour with blue clouds on it. Little earrings in the form of clouds formed on her ears, finally wings growing from Ember's back. The outsides were a dark blue and the insides a light blue, at the end of wings silver clouds were hanging from them.
Ember took a deep breath and smiled, winking as a burst of air finalized her new transformation. 'Ember, fairy of air!' she exclaimed. 'You look so pretty!' Bailey grinned as Ember landed down next to her, the two friends feeling completely refreshed. 'I'm happy for you two... Oh no, the Winx are in trouble! We need to go help them!' Bloom said, flying up. Bailey and Ember looked at each other and nodded, flying after her. Ember groaned as a familiar face appeared. 'Icy? You're still alive, I see?' Ember smiled, causing Flora to laugh. 'I hope you are ready, Trix. We have recruited us some new enchantix fairies to help!' Bloom said. 'We'll see that... Icicle shredder!' Bloom flew back into the school, much to the Winx's horror. 'Bloom!'
Ember was not lying when she said she did not remember much of the fight. She did however see her attacks did much more damage than before. When Flora cheered and said 'Bloom did it again!' Ember figured Bloom had managed to defeat Icy. She followed the Winx inside the school, still a bit out of breath. She looked on in awe as the wands went to the Winx and they gained Mythix power. Before she knew it, the Winx were gone into the Legendarium world.
'Ember is it?' a voice asked, as Ember and Bailey transformed to their regular selves. 'Yes?' she answered, voice filled with uncertainty. 'I have something for you. Your parents left it to me in case something happened to them.' Nebula gave her a letter and a package with her name written on it. 'This is from your parents. That is the reason why I summoned you here.' Nebula said, smiling at her as she walked away. 'What is it?' Bailey asked, sitting down next to her. 'A letter from my parents.' Bailey nodded. 'I'll leave you to read it.'
When the next day they went back to Alfea, Ember was much quieter than usual. Even when the mother's were invited for Mother's day, she seemed out of it. 'Are you allright, Ember?' Ember sighed and shook her head. 'I got a letter from my parents from Queen Nebula. It so confusing.' Ember said, tears filling her eyes. 'The letter says I need to find the diamond of air before Nagendra, because it would mean the end of the Magic Dimension. I think...Nagendra had something to do with my father coming to Earth, something with him being chased from Odos!' she sniffed, tears dripping from her eyes. 'Oh honey, it'll be fine. Don't worry.' Aunt Susanna shushed her. 'I don't even know where to start. I don't even know where to find it. What was my father?' she asked, her aunt still hugging her. 'We'll find out, my darling. Do not worry!'
Ember calmed down enough to enjoy the party and she and Aunt Susanna did pass a good afternoon. When Ember's head hit her pillow, she still thought about her parent's letter. Eventually she fell into a fitful sleep.
It had been long since she had had such a calm dream. A gentle breeze blew through the field, Ember's long dark hair dancing in the wind. 'It's been a long time, sweetheart. Look how much you've grown.' she heard a voice say. Ember turned around and saw a woman in her twenties before her, long brown hair and grey eyes looking warmly at her. It took a few moments for it to click together. 'Mum?' The woman nodded, opening her arms as Ember jumped into her arms. 'I've waited so long to see you. You look strong and beautiful.' Selia said, smiling at Ember. 'Why can I only see you now?' Ember asked. 'And where are we?' Selia smiled, hands gently caressing the crops. 'You needed to achieve Enchantix for me to be able to see you. Your father wanted it to be that way. This is Deresia as I remember it.' Selia answered her daughter's questions, patting Ember on her head. 'You got our letter.' Ember nodded. 'But I don't understand.' Selia closed her eyes and nodded. 'I know, but we are not allowed to tell you. I would if I could my sweet daughter. You'll figure it out.' Selia said, looking at the horizon as the sun went down. 'Will I see you again?' Selia smiled softly, putting a few stray strands of hair behind Ember's ears. 'Ofcourse, we're always with you. In here.' she gestured to Ember's heart. 'You only need to ask and we'll answer.' Ember sighed. 'But why do I keep on seeing you in my dreams?' Selia sighed as well, scratching her head. 'We are not allowed to move on to the other life as long as you haven't fullfilled your destiny. That's the reason we're still here.' Ember nodded, resolve returning. 'I'll free you, mum.' Selia laughed. 'It's not that bad. Your father and I are together, that's what matters. Say hello to Susanna for me.' Selia said, as she kissed Ember on her forehead and turned around, walking towards the setting sun. 'Mum?' Selia turned around. 'Yes?' 'Happy Mother's day!' Selia laughed out loud, grinning at her daughter before she faded away. 'Thank you, my darling...'
This time when Ember woke up, she felt refreshed. She would find it and set her parents free. Even if it was the last thing she did.
