Time.

Chapter XXV: Time

"Ice javelin!" she yells but thanks to my recent self-defense training at Sparx I can avoid her attack.

"Ice spikes" she shouts angrier. Ok this is harder. Relax. It's like dancing. Up, under, left, up,… I gasp for air. Okay well…

"Why are you here?" I ask, only to gain time. So not interested.

"Why should I tell you?" she asks arrogantly

"I don't know. Why shouldn't you?"

"We believe there's more Dragonfire in the castle so we're here to steal it." Makes sense; except for this tiny thing; the Dragonfire isn't in the palace. Luckily they don't know I have it. But this is interesting; this means they're not strong enough; they need more. Thanks Icy.

"Oh" I just say "Do you really think you'll get it that easy?"

"Off course. Stormy and Darcy have just defeated your slimy friends and now they're looking for the Dragonfire"

"Wow" I say fake-impressed. "You must have absolutely no problems finding a boyfriend, with all that confidence" I say sarcastically "And naivety."

"At least I don't have a boyfriend who mates with everything that wears a skirt." Ok that's not funny. Now I'm angry. How does she dare? Suddenly a fireball comes out of my hand. Yes!

"Take that back" I yell, throwing another fire ball. Come on, keep making me mad.

"Why should I? It's true isn't it? He screwed that Latin girl. Ice wave!" I avoid her attack easily; she's losing her concentration. Yet she continues.

"What was her name again? Marisol?" she asks

"Fire blaze!" she stumbles.

"You know what I heard from Riven? That she was pregnant?" she says as if she cares. I bow my head.

"Oh it's true. Your boyfriend got her knocked-up. Hilarious." She says, enjoying this. "Aren't you devastated?" she asks, pretending to care.

"Ice clone!"

"Fire wall" God Sky, this is all your fault. I lift my head and look Icy in the eye.

"On the contrary. I'm feeling better after our chat. Bloom magic Winx!" Now that's what I'm talking about. I can hear the Dragon roar behind me.

"That's cute, can you make him sing too?" she asks, still in that cocky tone.

"Icy…" I look at her "You talk too much. Sphere of fire!" I yell. I look at her one last time and then send all my power to her, yelling: "DRAGON FURY!" I hear a scream and then nothing.

It's over.

I'm in my room at the new castle now. Icy and the other two have been defeated. Faragonda captured them and now they are sent to a special prison where they can't use magic. I'm happy I got my powers back yet I feel something's missing. I hear a knock on my door and soon Stella, Flora, Musa and Tecna enter. I start crying. What am I talking about? I'm a princess, I have amazing powers, wonderful friends and still…

Keep holding on 'cause you know we'll make it through, we'll make it through

Just stay strong, 'cause you know I'm here for you, I'm here for you

There's nothing you can say; nothing you can do

There's no other way when it comes to the truth

Whatever's meant to be, we'll work out perfectly

Keep holding on 'cause you know we'll make it through

I know very well what I'm missing. Or who I miss.

"What's wrong Bloom?" Stella asks

"I miss him so much."

"Off course you do. Why don't you give him a call?" Flora asks sweetly. I look at Stella, questioning.

"You didn't tell them?" she shakes her head.

"Sky slept with Marisol a few hours we got together."

"No!" Musa exclaims "That dirty ho!"

"That's totally unacceptable." Tecna

"And once before that" I add

"Oh Bloom, that is horrible!" Flora says

"And now she's pregnant" I add once more

"What?" Tecna's less subtle reaction

"I saw her yesterday, if I had know that…" Musa says indignantly "She bumped into me and the content of her purse was all over the floor, plus she spilled her coffee on her clothes."

"She was drinking coffee?" I ask slowly. I'm starting to realize something here "Musa, what was in her purse?"

"Lots of make-up, a wallet, a mirror, er… condoms and tampons. I saw some pills too. Maybe against cramps? Or the pill?" She looks at me "Oh" she says understandingly

"Oh my." I look at the girls." She's faking it."

Big girl, I really hope

You get the message I'm trying to convey

Bite the dust

'Cause you're pushing me to the edge

And I ain't got time to play

Bite the dust

How many times I got to tell you?

He's where he wants to be

Bite the dust

Keep on, act like you didn't know

My hands going to do the talking today

She's got a plan to have my man

She's going to have to deal with me

This is so not going to happen. That underhand bitch. She has no idea who she's dealing with. This is total war. I pick up the phone and dial Sky's number.

"Hullo?"

"Brandon, hi, it's Bloom. I was wondering if I could talk to Sky." I hear him sigh

"I dunno Bloom, he's kinda…"

"That wasn't a question" I cut him off. Sorry to snap, but this is important!

"Hello?" I hear a few seconds later. Ah there's the voice I wanted to hear. He sounds exhausted.

"Sky, don't talk to Marisol. Whatever she asks from you, don't do it! If she threatens you with her pregnancy, don't listen. Believe me. We'll figure this out."

"What?" he asks totally flustered.

"Don't communicate with Marisol, that's all I ask. I'm on to something."

"On to what?"

"On to something that can save us"

"But this is my problem. I need to solve this myself."

"This is our problem. And I have a plan. Just please do what I say. Don't try something yourself. We can do this Sky." I pause, wondering what I could possibly say more "Bye."

"Bloom?" he quickly asks

"Yeah?" I reply hopefully

"I love you too." Finally! Thank you God! Thank you!

"I know. I'll talk to you soon" I say, almost crying.

"Bye… I miss you"

"Stop it, you're making me cry!" I say half laughing, half crying.

"Bye." End. I look at the girls, the last tears are falling down my cheek. I wipe them away.

"Let's do this." Musa says. I nod, noticing the determinate looks on their faces. How would I look like? I talk:

"She's going down" Emphasizing the last word.

Down

A/N: Hah brilliant! Marisol will be history hihi :) I like to be mean and I liked this chapter. Next chapter, the plan will be carried out! Yeey! Reviews? Please? I NEED them! NEED!
