(Bloom POV)
I just stood there, watching and listening to the news on the wall. Screams of terror and pain and images and videos of The Army of Decay. My eyes are wide with shock. My dreams did mean more than just to scare me.
I see Sky look away from the screen and then I must have court his attention.
"Bloom" he says while walking over to me. He comes over and wraps his arms around me. I'm not mad at him anymore, because he was right. I don't hug him back through my arms stay limp at my sides and my eyes remain wide in shock. Sky steps back now and put his hands on my cheeks and bends so we are face to face. I finally pull my gaze from the projection and stare at him we look at each other for a bit and I think he knows I am hiding something from him.
"Saladin was right" is all I say to him. I hear the girls racing to us and Sky stands up straight and his taken back by the 5 girls that come crashing into me with hugs.
"Oh, Can't breathe" I wheeze out from lack of breath.
"Oh my, sorry sweetie" Flora shrieks and they all step away and we gather in a circle. I smile to see all their faces, beautiful and unique. Together we are the Winx club. I notice Sky talking to Faragonda before she makes a portal and Sky takes one look back at me before entering.
"No, Sky wait" I say rushing to the portal, accidentally pushing Musa and Layla aside to get there but he's already gone.
"Oops, Sorry" Stella said. I take a deep breath and turn back to the girls.
"Techna, how long ago did the army attack Hypoid" I ask, directing my gaze at Techna.
"About an hour ago, but I've been looking at images on security cams on other planets; it seems to be spreading across the dimension." Techna replies.
"Where?" Layla asks.
"The next big attacked is most likely going to be in Romulea, it's the closest to Hypoid" Techna answers. Romulea is a very dry dessert realm. Just like Egypt but the whole plant is covered in sand. I met the King and Queen at the millennium party for Eraklyon.
"Have the Trix been spotted" I ask.
"Yeah, they're the ones behind this, they should be somewhere near the attacks" Musa adds.
"No, they haven't" Techna says and looks down. Faragonda comes over to us.
"Girls, I have just received a telegram from the Council of The Magical Dimension, I have orders to be at Romulea tomorrow morning, Saladin and Griffin also have the same orders".
"Ms F why are you telling us this?" Stella asked confused.
"Girls, I know you will want to fight and many of the other fairies, witches and heroes of the schools on Magix, but-" Faragonda starts to say but I interrupt.
"But nothing, Ms.F, I might not speak for all of us but I want to fight, I have to" I say and all the girls agree.
"Yeah we dealt with the Army of Decay before" Musa says and we start to become more hyped up ready for battle again.
"If that is what you chose" Faragonda says before smiling and leaving the office, Griselda not far behind. We all decide to go get a goodnight sleep. The girls explained to me about the nightmare curse and how the teachers lifted it. But I know that's not the only thing that Trix cast on me.
"Why would they just cast a curse like that on you Bloom" Flora questioned as we are walking back to our dorm with the rest of the girls.
"Probably just trying to mock me, or scare… I guess it kind of worked." I lie about the first bit the second bit, true.
"Those bitches, how in the holy hell did they manage to get the Army of Decay to rise from the depths again" Stella shrieks when we reach the doors to our dorm.
"I don't know ,they probably got more powerful or something" Layla adds.
We all stand in the living area ready to part our separate ways. I look at my friends, so brave and so powerful, how did I ever get so lucky.
"Well, tomorrow's a big day" Stella says nervously. We all nod and agree.
"Oh, group hug!" Stella cries and we all laugh at her fake happy tears. We all make a group hug before walking to our dorm rooms. That night I process what I need to do to tomorrow. I lie in bed waiting for Flora to fall asleep, when she finally is I creep out of bed and head to my desk, I create a little light orb so I can see what I'm doing and begin to write.
The next morning I hadn't had got any sleep, but was as ready and as energetic as someone who had. It was still early and the sun had barley come out. I decide to get changed, quietly still not trying to wake Flora.
I open the door to my room softly and close it behind me. I hear another door make the same noise as mine, I look up to my left to see a half dressed Brandon exiting from Stella's room. It's my turn to have some fun.
"Morning Brandon" I say with a grin, he jumps and turns around holding his shirt and shoes in a cluster.
"Oh ahhhhh, Hi Bloom, didn't think you wold be up this early". He says nervously.
"Didn't think you would be in my dorm this early" I say, still grinning.
"Well, it's a big day and I ahhh…" he drifts off topic. I raise a conspicuous eyebrow at him; I still have this huge cheeky grin plastered on my face which he notices and chuckles at.
"You know ,don't you" he whispers.
"Yep, and heard quite a bit too." I say walking over closer towards him. I actually did here quite a few moans of pleasure last night and to be honest don't know if I want to hear them again. Brandon goes bright red. I laugh silently trying not to wake the others.
"I better go "he says rushing towards the exit.
"Brandon wait" I stop him, feeling a little sorry for him. "You can put your shoes and stuff on here, I'm sorry"
"Thanks Bloom" He chuckles with an embarrassed grin. I end up getting a glass of water when I notice Brandon looking at me strangely.
"Bloom are you ok?, you look like you've been crying" He asks while tying up his shoes. I was crying last night, and my eyes must look puffy.
"Yep, just tired" I say brushing him off. He puts on his T- shirt and walks up to me and looks straight into my eyes.
"Bloom, you know you can trust me" He says honest and stern. He smiles.
"Thank you" I say back smiling, the smile is contagious when it comes to Brandon. He gives me a one arm hug and we say good bye to each other.
It's been 2 hours since my run in with Brandon. All the girls and I are heading down to the Red Fountain ship. When we get there, we notice many other red fountain ships, other Alfea fairies and even some witches boarding them.
"I guess lots of people want to fight" I say while watching everything taking place in the court yard.
"Yeah, all the seniors are going" Techna says "It must be because, of what happened in our first year"
All the seniors , including the Winx and I were freshmen when we had to defeat the Army of Decay. I guess we feel the need to be able to do it again. Supplies are being bought on by Red Fountain heroes. I see lots of medical supplies, which frightens me.
"Morning girls, ready for today" Codatorta says in his strong accident as he walks past us accompanied by Saladin.
"Yes, sir" Stella says with a mock solute, that we all try and stop ourselves laughing when we see Codatrota's expression in return.
"All right,… Girls you are partnered up with the Specialists, best be on your way to the ship then". Cordatora says and continuous on his way. He carries thick chains I am guessing the dragon riders will be joining the battle. We all start to head to the ship but Saladin pulls me back.
"Bloom, I would like to formally apologize for making Sky keeping a close eye on you and passing private information onto me, I hope it hasn't impacted your relationship with him." Saladin politely speaks.
"No sir, in some respects you were right to keep an eye on me, and thank you for your apology" I reply slightly bowing. He smiles and nods before catching up with Codatorta , which is surprising for an old man. I ran to the ship we are assigned and walk up the ramp. I luckily just made it because it closes right after I step onto the ship. I take there stairs up to the cockpit, and when I get there I see Timmy and Riven at the controls preparing to take off. I take my usual seat at the back right next to Flora and Stella. Stella's busy talking to Brandon and Flora looks like she helping Musa with a new spell, something they have been working on.
"Hey" I hear someone say from behind my chair and I turn to see Sky. I'm about to say 'hey' back but realize he isn't talking to me.
"Ready to take off, the teachers ship just left" Sky says walking up to his seat next to Timmy on the control panel.
"Yep, Riven your up" Timmy says tapping random buttons of the panel showing holograms of what I am guess is the engines.
"You gotcha, everybody take your seats if you don't want to die before the actual fight" Riven smirks pulling the throttle on his left while every one finds their seats. I guess Sky is still mad at me from last night, he knows I am hiding something but I can't tell him and I can't tell anyone. But I need to talk to him sometime, I am hoping he'll let me.
It's been about 45 minutes now on the ship the guys were either checking on other companion ships or talking about tactics. I was talking with the girls about converging powers that we used once on the Army of Decay. I kept glancing over at Sky, trying to catch his gaze. I did one time but he looked away, he's so stubborn some times, but I can't complain because I am probably more.
The girls and I get board of talking tactics and we start to talk about Stella's a thousand new outfits and her showing us pictures on her phone. I think it is a good time to talk to Sky so I unbuckle myself from my chair, not really being noticed by the girls and walk over to Sky.
"Can I talk to you for a minute, Sky" I say while he is fixed on the panel screen, typing in something. I go a bit red because all the other boys look at me like an outsider.
"Ah, Bloom, can it wait I am a bit busy right now" he says trying to be polite but frustrated at the same time.
"Oh… okay sure" I say awkwardly and walk back to my seat briefly looking at Brandon who gives me a sad smile.
"Hey, what was that about" Musa asks as I return to my seat.
"Nothing , absolutely nothing" I sigh "So what are we talking about now?" I ask trying to sound more chipper. I know that Sky won't end up talking to me because we have only about 20 minute to go before we reach Romulea so I force myself to forget. Instead, the girls and I talk about gossip or anything that comes to our minds. I enjoy this so much and savour every minute, remembering the great times the Winx club have shared.
We arrive at Romulea, a dry dessert is all that you see. Sand dunes like still waves in to ocean cover every inch we see, but walking on towards us is a sea of red, the Army of Decay.
Hope you enjoyed that chapter, and thank you for your amazing reviews, but like anyone I would love some more, promise to update soon.
