Hey. It's Paw. And this is going to be my last update for "Big Surprise?". It's a bitter sweet moment. It's bitter because I've been with this story for two years. It's sweet because I'm going to move onto bigger and better things.
Disclaimer: I don't own Winx Club.
Sequel: I will talk about the sequel now. The sequel will be called "Fire of Hope" and it will pick up around 5 months after the end of last chapter. It probably won't be posted for a few months (I need to have a break from Winx and I'm moving schools). So check around my profile for when it's posted. Sorry for the long wait for it, but it has to be done.
I'll say my final good bye at the end of this chapter (it's 1000 words long, sorry about that). This chapter is dedicated to all of the readers and reviewers. I can't list everyone because there are so many, but this is for you.
In this chapter there is a final update, a bit from the first chapter of "Fire of Hope", and a final good bye. My stomach feels like I'm about to puke because it's so hard to say good bye. I bet as soon as I post this chapter I'll be crying.
I love each and every one of you. Thank you for all the joy you gave me (just think about how emotional I am right now... I wonder what it will be when i finish the whole story of Musa).
Thank you again.
Enjoy.

Last Chapter:
"Dylan, we need you!" A pink haired fair called. I pulled out of Riven and looked to the floor. I looked over to the other side of the room and shuttered. I had no idea what happened, but everyone looked shaken. Stella kept to a dark corner, her head in her hands, her body shaking with sobs. Helia had a dazed look in his eyes as he held one of his daughters. Roxy had her arm in a make shift sling, and she was sobbing into Johnny's shoulder. Sky, Timmy, and Tecna were all lying in the middle of the floor, all with very serious injuries. Timmy had cuts all over him, Sky had most of his skin missing on his right side of his body, with his left side of his body covered in blood, and Tecna still looked like she was in pain and knocked out.
"What's wrong…? What happened?" I asked, in total shock. There was blood everywhere, making me want to get sick.
"Timmy got sucked into the earth, and he got attacked. I don't know the severity of the damage, but he's on the blink of death." Riven whispered. "And Sky, well, I own him my life. When we were climbing up the hill explosions went off. People were thrown everywhere, and I went flying. Sky ran right into me, pushing me away from the next explosion, and also pushing himself into the explosion. He landed on the ground inches away from the explosion, and the force of the explosion blew his skin clear off of his body. And Tecna, well we don't know if it's safe to wake her with the same spell we used for the others when she's pregnant." Riven said. I nodded my head.
"What else happ-"
"She's going into labour!"

Creatures:
Fairies: A magical being that uses their natural energy for good. Most fairies fight witches and are fighting for good, but some fight on the witch's side and are fighting for evil. Their magical power could be anything. Fire, Sun, Flowers, Technology, Music, Plasma, Animals, Beauty, Moon, Fashion, Earth, Weapons, Fog, Navigation, Mist, Hope, Faith, Emotions, the list goes on forever. Fairies get their magical source from the light.
Heroes: They are magical beings, but they don't have any control over the magical elements. Their job is to learn how to protect others and live in a world of magic without magic. They can pick their side, but most pick the good (light) side.
Wizards: Similarly to Witches and Fairies, Wizards have been shown to have specific powers. They are a mix of Heroes and Fairies, being male and have magical powers. They also get their magical energy source from light.
Witches: Witches are magical creatures of the magic dimension and are the magical opposite of Fairies. Witches and wizards are similar in appearance to humans and Fairies. However the source of their magical powers is from their negative feelings and from darkness, while that of the Fairies is from their good feelings and from light. Even if some witches have used their powers for evil purposes, most witches are not necessarily evil.
Pixies:They are magical creatures of the Magic Dimension. They are small with somewhat heads relatively large with respect to their bodies and with wings. The most important job of a pixie is for to first bond with a fairy, and then help her with their powers in some way.
Elves: Elves use their dark magic for small negative spells. Their witchcraft is used to create chaos, to deceive, cheat and bully. They also use spells and potions causing havoc in different situations and use their magic to make dangerous monsters appear.
Cold Spirits: A Cold Spirit is a dark spirit, sent from The Darkness. They are best known as being the watchers of The Death Realm. The Cold Spirits can roam freely or they could be controlled by one person or a group of people. If the Cold Spirits roam freely they are 'owned' or 'controlled' by the Queen of Death. Only the Queen of Death can give Cold Spirits away. There are many powers the Cold Spirits obtain. Each is unique; just like fairies and witches and pixies. They all have the same power, but some are better at one thing then another. The powers that all Cold Spirits have are death, coldness, soul sucking, flight, and transportation in and out of realms. The appearance of a Cold Spirit is black mist pressed together into the form of a body. Sometimes- and in most cases- the owner prefers to put them in cloaks.
Prologue - Fire of Hope
I clutched my now, very swollen, seven month pregnant stomach. My fiancé held our adopted 29 month old. His arm was wrapped protectively around my shoulder, pulling me into his side, bringing me some warmth.
A girl beside me grasped my hand in hers as she slept. In her arm closest too her husband she held a small baby boy with shaggy red hair, no older than five months old.
Across my out stretched legs were four little heads, each of them holding each other closely. I ran my hands through the young boy's hair, twirling it between my fingers.
I should have been sleeping, but I couldn't sleep knowing that my house had been targeted. I couldn't sleep knowing that my family had been targeted, that everyone I loved wanted to be killed.
I looked over to the only other person awake around me, my best guy friend. I smiled at him. He smiled back, reached across his wife, and lightly touched my arm. I looked at his hand and I felt myself cringe inside. Burn marks and blast scars ran along his hand, not even being six months old.
"Go to bed," he told me softly. I nodded, leaned against my fiancé, and closed my eyes.
Not even ten minutes had passed before I heard ten, faint gushes of wind. My eyes flew open at the sound.
We had been found.
"Big Surprise?" has been a truly massive undertaking, far more than I ever imagined when it began. It has wound up at more than 100, 000 words, which is far longer than I ever thought it would and could be, and I have my readers to thank for this.
You have stuck by Musa and the Winx for over one year, close to two years. You stuck with them through all the ups and downs of this wild ride. I am aware that following such a story is an effort and a dedication just as much as writing it, and I want you to know that if you have gotten this far, I truly thank you, and would love to hear from you. This is the first thing I have ever written, and I am always delighted to know that others have read it, whether they loved or hated it.
It is my intention that you have laughed occasionally, maybe even cried, and I would hope that at least once or twice, it has made you think.
I hope it made you think about life and death. That life can be over in a matter of seconds. Bloom was young and didn't know she would die, but she did.
I hope it made you think about how you should appreciate every second of your life like Layla did when she came back to life.
I hope that this story also made you think about love and your family. To appreciate things you have before they are gone. Musa loved Riven, yes. When she through him away, she didn't care because she was blinded by rage. But when she was in the void she desperately needed him.
Now, this story would be impossible if it weren't for some great people. Every person mentioned in this story had a part in how this story came to be what it is now.
xxxMusarockz… Without her, my chapters would be really bad. When she edited, my chapters changed. She made them better and when she stopped editing they maintained that level. Because of her, I learned how to write well enough.
Beblessed… She helped me by just giving me inspiration. She was a great friend, and I love her. Her story was the thing that inspired me to start writing.
I would like to thank you, you as in everyone who snuck a peek at this story. People have stuck with this story for almost two years. People stuck through months of not updating, and when I did update a really bad update. All of my readers had read through my first few chapters, and I now know that those chapter's qualities aren't the best.
Truly, it touches my heart that people have enjoyed reading this story. Writing made me a better person, it has. Seeing people take their time and review made me take my time and hold open doors for people.
It touches my heart knowing that people have read my story. That people have read my work and liked it! I'm so blessed that I've gotten praised for writing, for doing something that I really loved. I'm blessed to have such a great fan base now. I'm so blessed that I have such great reviewers, and that I have people reading who aren't afraid to speak their minds.
I can't even start to say how touched I am by all of you. Each of you has made such a great impact in my life. I'm proud to say that each of you had made my heart flutter, even if it was a flame.
Really, it's impossible to come up with words to try and describe the feeling I'm getting from writing this. I can't even start to explain how my stomach starts to feel when I get a new review.
All I can say is that the time writing this story has been the best time of my life. Sometimes I would force myself to write, because I didn't want to disappoint anyone of my readers. But really, this story has been the root of my joy for a few years.
I know I'm not the best writer out there. I'm not the best fanfiction writer. I'm not an author. But each review made me feel like I'm one. Each review made me feel so happy, they pushed me to write.
I know I'm going on and on, but I need to do this. It's hard to write what I say in a small amount of words. I've said this a billion times, it's an understatement so I think that if I say it enough, you will get the true feeling of it.
I'm so touched by each of you. You have made my life a joy to live in. You pulled me out of my depression and gave me a reason to come home from school. You gave me a reason not to give into my flu or clod and to push myself to school so I could come home and write.
I'm blessed to have readers and people like you in my life. Thank you for sticking with me for the two long years. I love and appreciate each of you. Thank you in not enough.
Thank you again. This isn't good bye forever, I'll see you soon.
Until next time,
Pawprinter
