Walking down the pathway, the 2 sisters had mixed feelings about everything that was going on and the idea of magic really existing. It was all they ever dreamed about...but they were also very scared. What if they were attacked again? Was trolls and ogres actually common over here as well. As they walked, Stella suddenly stopped them. "Oh shit, I forgot about this..."

"What is it, Stella?" Bloom asked, confused at what made them stop. There was nothing around here.

Well at first. In a small burst of light energy, Stella's sent a little light orb that made contact with a large barrier nearby. "Magic barrier, it prevents non-magical creatures from entering. We should check the pets, they're from Earth after all."

Eldora nodded, she hadn't considered that and she never expected to have to determine whether her daughters' pets were magical or not. Watching as Bloom and Selina put down Kiko and Purr. "Alright, little ones. Just walk through the light barrier."

"Meow?..." Purr cried out, not understanding for a moment before stepping forward to expect the barrier before lunging at it. The barrier was quick to let her through, surprising the entire group. An Earth creature had enough magic for the barrier to let her through? It was the same with Kiko, who ran through to follow the cat in.

"Never thought my pets had magic..." Bloom whispered, confused as she walked through the barrier to pick the two up. "...What does this mean, Stella?"

"Honestly, not really sure. All I know is the barrier sees them as magical creatures and that means they'll be able to enter and leave the school grounds. But when we get to the school, we should mention it to Miss Faragonda. She'll probably be able to understand what's going on," the girl then sighed in mild relief. "You know, I'm so glad that my family sent my luggage via magic mail...it would have probably lost it with that nightmare."

"Did you bring anything valuable with your luggage?" Selina asked, as she took Purr from her sister after passing through the barrier. The group then continued walking, it wasn't a short walk now. But it gave them time to discuss things.

"Not much. Just some clothes from both of my palaces," the two sisters looked stunned for a moment, causing Stella to sigh. "My parents are divorced, so I keep clothes at both of their palaces. Though I also brought my own pet along with me, she should already be at the school. Miss Faragonda said she'll watch her for me until I arrived."

"Pet?" Bloom asked, kinda curious about the animals of this world. They had to be something special if they all had magic, right? Stella just shook her head, indicating to wait. Just after Bloom's curious whisper, they arrived at the school's gates.

The gate was like 2 feathery wings that opened up by magic and disappeared into the grounds as the pair stepped close to it. "Whoa..." Selina gasped, quite surprised by the magic used even in normal objects.

"Princess Stella," came a voice, making the blonde flinch a little as she turned to see a glasses-wearing brown haired woman with a clipboard walking towards them. The sisters quickly recognized her as the woman in the hologram from the day prior. "I see that you have safely arrived on time."

"Yes, Miss G. Sorry about all the hassle," Stella nodded, before indicating towards the small family behind her. "These 2 girls are the magi that I mentioned to you as well as their mother, who also was a fairy in her youth."

Griselda nodded her head and adjusted her glasses. "Right, nice to see you again, Eldora. I never expected to see you return after you declined Miss Faragonda's request. Also never expected you to have daughters."

"Things change, Miss Griselda," the elderly woman laughed. "These are my daughters. Bloom, who's 16, is my adoptive daughter and Selina, who's 14, is my biological daughter."

"I see. Well, I'll take you to Miss Faragonda. It'd be best if you discuss with her about your daughters' attendance at the school," the family nodded and followed after the brown haired woman. As they walked, the two sisters took in the amazement of the school as they walked towards the center building. Once inside, the group noted the insane amount of stairs. Selina scoffed a little. "You'd think in a world of magic that stairs wouldn't be a requirement."

"Actually, quite the contrary," Griselda commented, looking over her shoulder at the green haired fairy of myth. "Most of the students over-relay on their magic to take them places, wings and all that. But magic is forbidden to be used in the hallways and we believe stairs is the best way for these girls to stay in some form of active constitution so they don't gain body fat or become weak from lack of use."

This caused Selina to blink, she hadn't thought about it in that way. "Makes sense, I guess. Just hand me whatever is considered a bike over in this world and I'll be fine for exercise," she laughed, as she thought of the bike they had left back on Earth. It had been mangled during the fight and wasn't good anyway.

The group eventually found themselves in front of some very impressively sized double doors that Griselda knocked on. Shortly after, an elderly voice was heard that said. "Come on in."

The door opened into a very impressive office room, shelves lined both of the walls to their side filled with books about magic and stuff. The ambient magic in the room was strong enough for Bloom and Selina to even feel it without much knowledge. There was a small fireplace that sent warm energy throughout the room, filling Bloom with a lot of energy then she realized. In front of them, an impressive desk in front of massive windows that overlooked the courtyard that they had just been in.

Sat at the desk was an elderly woman with short and very curly hair, horn-rimmed glasses and a blue vest with a lilac ruffled shirt underneath. She had a warm, friendly smile at the stared at the group before addressing the deputy head. "May I ask what's going on, Griselda?"

"Well, Princess Stella arrived just now and brought with her the magi that she mentioned. I thought that their mother could talk with you about their situation, I'm sure that you recognize her," the head of discipline commented, indicating towards Eldora and the two girls.

"Eldora, my old friend. I thought I wouldn't ever see you again after you left the school," the friendly headmistress commented, as Eldora stepped forward with the two girls. "I assume these are your daughters."

"Yes, Faragonda," the mother smiled, as she sat down in one of the three chairs in front of the headmistress. Bloom and Selina awkwardly took their seats as well. Around this point, Griselda had walked out with Stella to take the blond to her dorm. "The green haired girl is Selina, she's my biological daughter. 14 years and inherited my powers of myth and legends. And the red head is my adoptive daughter, Bloom. She's 16 and we're unsure where she came from. But we know that she likely has magic over fire."

"I see," the woman smiled, before addressing the two girls. "So you discovered your powers recently, it's quite unheard of for teenagers to only just discover their powers. But I hear that you were raised on Earth."

"Y-ya..." Bloom commented, quite intimidated despite the woman's friendly attitude. She didn't want to get in trouble after only just arriving fro sure. "Stella said something about the magic ambient being very insufficient...and that likely prevented our magic coming out."

"Yes, that would likely be the case," Faragonda nodded. "So I assume that you two aren't aware of what type of magi that you are."

"Type of magi?" Selina asked. "Stella and you keep mentioning that word...but what exactly is a Magi?"

"A magi is what we refer to the people around here that have magic, my dear. A magi can be anyone that even has a fraction of magic and can pass through the magic barriers. Female magi usually chose between fairy and witch in olden times, but now they can also chose to harness that magic through the use of weapons as a specialist. Whilst male magi can chose to be wizards or specialists. Though male fairies are also becoming popular nowadays."

"So...me and Selina could be any one of these?"

"Correct. If your magic is still unstable then you'll be able to be influenced to do one or the other, but over time. Your magic will stabilize and it's unheard of for 2nd or third year students at any school to do a full transfer. I can sense it quite well within you two that your magic is mostly that are a fairy, with little instablity. So it'd be in your best interest to stay at Alfea."

"We kinda intending to anyway, Miss...Faragonda," Bloom commented, with Selina nodded in agreement. "Stella is here...and that means we actually know someone here...which would make the situation easier."

"Good to know that you have a friend to relay on, but don't forgot that your sisterly bond will also be quite helpful. You have each other," the two sisters nodded with a smile. The elderly woman smiled down at them before turning back to Eldora. "With your daughters attending Alfea, are you planning to go back to Earth?"

"Not this time, Faragonda. My cottage was destroyed during the attack and I think that its about time that I took you up on your offer and become the teacher of the Aviary. I'm sure that I can help the students learn about how important magical nature is."

The headmistress smiled. "I'm glad that you finally took my offer, I've been waiting for years to hear you say those words. You'll be offered a room in the teachers' wing. Unfortunately, I cannot have your daughters stay in the same room as part of the rules. However, there is 2 free spots within the same dormitory that your friend is in. Another student has decided to go to another school this year instead, so her space is open and we already had a spare slot anyway."

The two girls seemed happy with that arrangement. "Thanks, headmistress," they said in unison.

The woman smiled. "You two should run along now and meet your roommates, I'll handle the paperwork with your mother. You'll get an allowance every week, since your earth money won't have any value here."

"W-wait, before we go," Bloom injected as she held out her two pets and placed them on the desk. "T-they were able to pass through the barrier when we got here...but they're from Earth. Stella told us to tell you to check."

The elderly woman smiled and gently petted the two animals as she tried to sense their magic energy. "Yes, I feel magic within them. How they ended up on Earth, I cannot say. But I believe these two are pixie pets that have lost their wings. I believe that you'll be able to restore their wings in time with your magical training."

Bloom smiled a bit, taking her pets back. Purr snuggled into her owner's chest and fell to sleep whilst Kiko hopped on the girl's shoulder. "S-so, where are we heading for the dorm. I don't think me and Selina want to get lost."

This brought a hearty chuckle to the woman, who summoned a piece of paper for the two. "That's a map of the school, I have marked where your dorm is. It's on the second floor, don't forgot that," the lap levitated in front of them, being grabbed by the green haired girl before she stood up.

"Right, come on, sis," Selina smiled, grabbing hold of Bloom's free hand as they left, map in Selina's hand. They left the office and began to walk around the school. It was kinda deserted, maybe everyone was in their dorms or outside. "So it says to go down the stairs and this way," Selina whispered as she read the map. "So what you think so far, sis. This place is actually insane."

"Yah...never thought magic ever would exist," the older of the two commented, as she held Purr delicately in her arms. "B-but you know, I'm glad that both of us get to share it. Imagine if only one of us had magic...that would be quite unfair," Selina nodded and laugh, as they walked out in the courtyard.

In the courtyard was many students, but the sisters decided to keep to their own for now. They were still very overwhelmed and didn't really need to meet too many people, there would be other opportunities for that. Plus...they were already going to meet their new roommates apparently and that would be more than enough.

They headed back in the building via another exit, following the map to a T. They wouldn't even know if there was a shortcut to be honest, so they had to just follow the map. Walking back up the stairs and down the hallway, they eventually came across a room. On the door was a handful of names, seemingly applied with magic since Bloom's and Selina's names were already on the list. "Guess this is it," Selina stated, as she stared at the other names. She obviously only recognized Stella's though.

"Well, lets open it," Bloom replied, before she grabbed at the door with her free hand and turned the handle. Beyond there was a pretty normal looking room, which was definitely not what the two had in any way shape or form expected. Two green sofas surrounding a coffee table, a small levitating television (Probably the one weird thing), some potted plants, a rug and a bookcase. Behind a desk, there was also a mini kitchen with the basics. There were three doors along the walls, all with name tags on them to indicate who belonged to which room. "Guess people have to share with someone else. Lets see," the scanned the room, eventually finding 'Bloom Falade' on one of the doors. "Aww, shame. We don't get the share."

Selina nodded in disappointment, finding her own name surprisingly belongs Stella. "Hey, I get to share with Stella..." then the girl blinked, remembering something. "Shit, didn't she say that she needed night lights to power her energy at night. Fun..."

Bloom laughed. "You never did like my night lights when we were younger, did you," she helped Kiko onto the floor and watched the rabbit hop around to look at everything curiously. "I wonder if our roommates are here."

"Nope, they ain't," a voice, the girls recognized quickly as Stella's, said as she walked out of her and Selina's room. "I checked, but they should be here soon. Probably just downstairs getting registration in. Griselda went off to do that. I noticed when the name tags changed, guess we have to put up with each other, Selina."

"...Great..."

"I assume they'll be expecting us downstairs in a minute or two, anyway. So just put your things in your rooms and we can then head out," the two sisters nodded, and with help from Stella's magic was able to quickly get their luggage in their rooms. The only thing that Bloom got out ready was a little basket that she had somehow stuffed into her luggage and placed it on one of the night stands next to the bed that she decided to claim. "Who sleeps in the basket?"

"Kiko always does. It's his favorite. Purr sleeps on my side, but she'll get comfortable anywhere," the red head laughed, smiling down at her purring and sleeping kitten.

"Okay then," Stella grinned before the trio headed back outside with the two sisters making sure to remember where the room was. "They always do this same sort of commentary at the start of the year, stating the rules and introducing the teachers. You know, the standard."

"Well, at least we know what to expect."

Once they were in the courtyard, the group saw that the huddle of students were now evenly arranged into lines. "Come on, we should get over there," Stella commented, so the trio quickly rushed into line. Thankfully, it hadn't started yet.

Griselda was the one talking and she didn't particularly look happy, but that might as well have been her default face. "This school will be your home for the next 3 years as you study magic," she started, almost as soon as the trio got into position. "But. It can cease to be your home at any moment. The rules of this academy are based on discipline. Disregard these rules and I'll personally escort you to the front gate," the woman pointed at the gates, making most of the students flinch.

"There are strict rules. One of which is that use of magic within the halls in prohibited, in fact; the only place you may display your powers is under teacher's supervision. That means during class time or when asking for a private lesson. Of course, uses of object levitation at completely allowed if need be," it seemed like Griselda had a bit of a personal vendetta to pull when she suddenly pointed at Stella. "Is that correct, Princess Stella. Thanks to this girl that you see here, the potions laboratory won't be accessible until next month at the earliest. Now I assume you lot know what you NOT to do if you don't wish to be held back a year like our princess of Solaria."

After Griselda began finished speaking, a herd of teachers walked out of the building led by Miss Faragonda. Within the teachers was Eldora, making the two sisters smile. "Everyone, this is your headmistress. So pay attention," the head of discipline commented, introducing Faragonda to the crowd.

"Really, there's no need to be so strict," the elderly woman laughed, as she spoke to her underling. "I hope Miss Griselda didn't scare you too much," after a short laugh was over, the woman smiled and indicated towards the school. "Welcome to Alfea, the best fairy school in the whole of Magix. But before I finish the announcements, I wish to introduce our teachers for this year."

Selina and Bloom wanted to make note of the teacher's names as they were mentioned, it would probably be very important. "I'm the headmistress of the school, Faragonda. And this is the deputy headmistress, Griselda. She is the teacher of combat magic and has the permission to use disciplinary action if need be. Which I certainly hope won't be necessary."

She then indicated towards a small, elvish almost man. Well, more dwarf like then elf-like actually. He seemed pretty happy to be there. "This is Professor Wizgiz, teacher of transformation magic."

The next teacher to be introduced was definitely an elf, he was slim and had very long brownish hair. He looked quite nervous and Selina already knew just based on that...that he would be a complete pushover. "This is Professor Palladium, teacher of potion magic, alchemy and magic theory."

The next teacher to be introduced was a woman, she looked very disciplined and regal with red colors over her long gray hair. "Professor Dufour, teacher of manners, advanced spell casting as well as being in charge of the school simulator."

"And our newest teacher," Eldora stepped forward, bowing to the crowd. "Professor Eldora, teacher of nature and animal magic. She's in charge of the school's aviary. Magic is not permitted there, you are there to learn how magical plants work. Not how to use your powers."

Faragonda smiled, earning a polite clap, before continuing. "There's also our general staff at this school. Like Barbatera, our school librarian. Ophelia, the school's personal nurse. And finally SeFogelia, our cook," the three consisted of 2 women and a man. One of the woman, a thin lady with glasses, was clearly the librarian. She looked pretty nervous, but kind with beautiful puffy reddish-purple hair. The other woman, the nurse, an orange-brown haired lady with a more stricter attitude also gave a pretty warm welcoming. And lastly, the man with a very serious look with black hair and a mustache, was clearly the cook by his outfit.

Faragonda then smiled. "I guess, it's time for us to head inside," she lead the crowd into the main building. Once everyone was there, the woman smiled. "Becoming a fairy is hard and tiring work, but keep in mind that the teachers and I are always here to help. Well, enough of the boring stuff," she said, gripping her glasses like a character tic. "Feel free to explore your surroundings, but be very careful as there are dangers lurking around."

Stella, who looked kinda bored by the entire situation, decided to make a light-hearted mockery of what she knew the woman would say next. "Stay away from the witches of Cloud Tower," she laughed a little, it was all quiet and not picked up by any teachers surprisingly. The blonde then looked at her two friends. "Listen, that's what's coming up next."

And she was quite right when Faragonda said the exact phrase that Stella had said. Griselda clapped her hands as she said. "Alright, speeches are over. You're are now free until dinner time."

As the group began to disperse, Faragonda gave a kind and warm-hearted last handful of words to the remaining students. "Good luck everybody and see you all tomorrow. And classes start at 8 o'clock sharp, do be punctual."

The group began heading back to their dorm, it wasn't a long walk. Stella smiled. "You'll love Miss Faragonda. She's very repetitive with what she says as I pointed out before. But super nice, very supportive of everyone."

"I see," Selina commented, before laughing. "You think our roommates are here? Maybe I could convince Bloom's roommate to swap with me."

"Nuh uh, your stuck with me, Selina," Stella chuckled, knowing it was all a joke anyway. "Besides you could get in serious trouble if you genuinely did that. But ya, I do believe our roommates should be at the dorm by now. We were some of the last to leave that crowd."

They eventually reached the dorm. They saw a pink haired, pretty average looking girl sat on one of the sofas with a small gadget in her hands. Bloom's door had been slightly opened, when she remembered that she closed it before. Seems like Selina noticed it. "Go meet your roommate, we'll introduce ourselves to Pinky over there."

Though nervous, Bloom nodded her head and walked into her shared dorm. There was now plants essentially everywhere. It was actually almost insane, how did this happen in such a short amount of time. On the bed that Bloom hadn't claimed was a sweet girl with a very feminine build petting one of the vines that seemed to be moving on it's own.

Bloom took a moment to take in the sweet girl's features, her long brown hair and green eyes that looked sweetly at the plants. For a moment, Bloom wondered if the girl would be hispanic if she was on Earth. She was wearing a very nice green frilly crop-top and a strawberry-printed skirt. It seemed like the girl spotted Bloom shortly after and sighed. "Sorry about the mess, I kinda just got in here and spread everything out. I'll clear most of it up so you can keep your own space."

"Nah, you can keep the vines growing around the room. They actually look really cool," Bloom commented, giggling a little. "Besides, Kiko seems to like it," she indicated towards her rabbit on the floor, who was lightly gnawing on one of the vines.

"Aww, cute little bunny," the brown haired girl smiled, walking over and petting him. "But I can't really have you eating my plants, I need them for energy, little one. So," she pulled out a few plant seeds and used her magic to quickly forms some carrots. "Here you go, little one."

"Wow...um, I'm your new roommate."

"Yeah, I figured," the sweet girl smiled. "My name is Flora Ruiz, I'm from Linphea. And you must be Bloom, I read the name tag before walking in."

"Yeah. I'm Bloom Falade...um...I come from Earth," she awkwardly responded, though she didn't chose to question what 'Linphea' was. She just assumed it was a planet like Stella's Solaria. She definitely felt very out of place, but she knew that Selina was probably feeling the same.

"Earth huh. I'm quite knowledgeable on inter-dimensional geography. I didn't think Earth had magi on it," the girl's voice remained kind, she wasn't implying Bloom was lying or anything at the very least. "Don't worry, I'll be here to help if your struggling at all."

"Thanks...um. Do I call you by 'Flora'?"

"Yes, since we're roommates and all. Nice to meet you, Bloom. We should probably go introduce ourselves to the others. I didn't earlier as I needed to set up my plants...I don't think anyone else would have been impressed if I left them lying in the common area."

The pair then headed out into the common area. Stella was talking with Selina and the pink haired girl from before. The girl, now that Bloom, could see her face had gorgeous teal eyes and was wearing very tight clothes that seemed almost technical in design. Putting utility over style and design. Plus like everyone else, her skin indicated towards a country from her own world. This time more Russian. Stella smirked upon seeing them. "That's 5, just waiting on one more. Lets wait before we introduce ourselves, it'd be a nightmare to have to keep saying our names."

"That was be a fair point if I was gonna take a while," came a frail voice from the door as a very pale (Oriental, Bloom wanted to point out) girl walked in with bouncy blue pigtails and sharp blue eyes. She definitely reminded Bloom of a Chinese girl. She was wearing a red shirt that only had one strap that exposed her mid drift and long blue jeans. She was frail, but definitely trying to go for a tomboyish look at the same time. "Yo, my name is Musa Li. Just got here from Melody."

"Flora Ruiz, from Linphea"

"Bloom Falade...," Bloom whispered, trying not to feel overwhelmed in the situation.

The pink haired girl sighed a bit, before introducing herself. "Irina Ivanov. I'm from Zenith, but please just call me Tecna. I'm not a fan of my real name."

"Stella Solaris. I'm the princess of Solaria."

"And lastly, I'm Selina Falade."

It seemed like Tecna picked up on Bloom and Selina's shared surnames, deciding to comment on it. She had a very logical-sounding tone that was also pretty cold. "You two share a surname, are you related?"

"Oh right. Sorry," Selina laughed before confirming what Tecna was speculating on. "We're both from Earth. Adopted sisters. My mother, Eldora, is the new teacher."

"Do we all know our magical sources here?" Stella decided to ask after the group chose to sit down, she was definitely curious. "I mean, we're going to be living together for the next 3 years so we probably should get used to each other. My source is light. Bloom's seems to be fire and Selina has power of myths and legends."

Flora smiled, waving her hands so one of the vines now grew through hers and Bloom's room into the common area, on the tip of it was a cup of warm tea that she had made earlier. "As evident, I share my home world's power of nature."

The blue haired girl was leaning back in her seat, clearly looking quite exhausted. "Music for me. Now can someone levitate my flute from my bag...please and thank you," after hearing that, Flora was quick to help and levitate the flute into Musa's hand. The girl began gently playing it, her color coming back. "Sorry for being weak. Music isn't allowed on my house, so I had to wait before I could regain my energy."

The others decided not to question the rules of their new friend's home situation, it would be quite rude. But Tecna decided to finish the power introduction train. "Technology for me," she said as she fiddled with her gadget. When she noticed that the others were staring. "Its a dream scanner, I'm trying to make sure the frequencies are right."

Bloom got up and opened one of her bags to get some cat food out, Kiko had already eaten thanks to Flora. But Purr had just woken up and needed food as well. She also grabbed a bowl and quickly placed it down, petting the kitten as she ate. "Aww, how sweetie," Flora commented as she watched the two. "Bloom, what are your pets' names anyway?"

"Kiko is the rabbit and Purr, here, is my cat. Kiko is around 5 years old, I got him for my 11 birthday and Purr is only a few months old. I saved her."

"Saved her?" Musa asked curiously.

"Ya...she was alone on the streets, cold and sickly. I had to do something, so I brought her back to my cottage and with help from my mom, got her back to normal and adopted her," she heard a meow from Purr, very much confirmation of Bloom's story as well as happiness for the food. "I couldn't really think of a name for her, so Purr kinda just ended up being it as I kept nicknaming her that anyway. Purr likes it, so I'd rather not give her an official name."

"By the way, speaking of food. How about we all eat out today in Magix City?" Stella asked curiously.

"Great idea, it could be a way to get to know one another," Flora commented with a smile, she definitely seemed to be the kind one in the group that would be easy friends with everyone there.

"It's definitely an effective way to form emotional ties," Tecna said, earning her a look from everyone else. This caused her to frown, those words were commonly normal on Zenith. Maybe she'd have to analyze people from other worlds more.

For a moment, Bloom wanted to suggest pizza as she loved it. But she quickly figured that might not be a good idea, who knows if pizza was even know in this dimension. It seemed like Selina had a similar thought process. "...We can go wherever you want. We don't know the food here after all, Earth is very different."

"Fair enough," Tecna commented, before realizing something. "Earth is a very far away place with no magi really known there besides you 2. So Magix City may come off as a surprise, but who knows what your world is like."

"I can't wait to find out," Selina smirked, clearly excited. But she then realized something kinda crucial. "So how are we intending to get there?"

Tecna checked her phone and soon said. "A bus will be arriving is approximately 2 minutes and 24 seconds...23...22."

"We get it. Lets just get going so we don't miss the bus," Stella said, causing the group to nod their heads in agreement and head off. Kiko and Purr were left to the own devices as Bloom was a little worried that they'd be overwhelmed. Once they were outside, they headed through the gates and saw the bus arrived. Selina and Bloom were pretty amazed by the lack of wheels, causing Stella to laugh. "Yeah, pretty cool. Ain't it?"

"Yeah...hovering buses. How normal is that over in this dimension?" Selina smirked, knowing the answer kinda already as they walked up to the bus.

"Relatively common, but there not in every world," Flora responded. "Like my world of Linphea doesn't use buses. We travel around on giant ladybugs," she then looked at Musa with a smile. "Also, I've heard those in Melody uses carts or occasionally travel by the singing whales."

"Correcto."

"On Zenith, stuff like this is part of everyday life. But technology is just the entirety of Zenith, especially Zenith City. All of the people there are expected to understand basic coding and higher ups know how to program an entire computer system in only an hour," came Tecna's response as she got onto the bus.

"Guess its based on your perspective of things," Bloom said. "I'm still in shock over the fact magic even exists."

Suddenly the driver caught her attention. "5 nummis."

"Oh shit," Selina realized, facepalming. "We don't have our allowance yet...fucking christ, of course we'd forget that."

"Don't worry, girlfriends. I got you covered," Stella smiled, pulling at 3 coins that said '5' on them. "Here, for me and my 2 friends."

The group finished paying and got onto a seat. Bloom looked very embarrassed, whilst Selina looked irritated at herself. Musa smiled at them. "Forget to get your money converted or something?"

"Or something," Bloom confirmed, with a sigh. "Our money isn't worth anything here, so we're getting an allowance. We just haven't got anything yet."

"Don't worry, girls. I got you covered for the entire trip. Repay me later," Stella laughed, earning a smile from the two sisters. The bus began to move shortly after, Bloom and Selina looked a little queasy for a moment. "Don't worry, you'll get over it soon. Hover-motion can definitely cause queasiness to those that don't understand."

"W-why do I feel like a lot causes queasiness in this world?" Selina grumbled, then remembered something. "Is flying queasy too, cause if I is. I don't want wings all of a sudden..."

"Nah, flying doesn't make you queasy," Flora smiled, pulling out a small plant and pulling 2 leaves from it. As she handed a leaf each to the sisters. "It'll help with queasiness," after stating that, she explained the flying bit. "Flying doesn't make you feel queasy at all, it just feels natural even to newcomers. You just have to get used to the fact that you have extra body parts, but once that's figured out. It's simply."

"So anyone still got luggage coming?" Tecna asked with a curious look at everyone, as they were moving. "My techsquirrel is coming tomorrow for instance. I didn't bring her with my original transit here as I had too much luggage with all my gadgets and it would have been a nightmare. Plus she had some medical checkups to do."

"Techsquirrel?" Bloom asked.

This earned a shrug from Tecna. "I don't really know how to explain her in your terms, I don't know what's normal on Earth. But Techsquirrels are the national fairy animal of Zenith...but they've been dying out over the centuries. Flitter is the last female of the species, so we're hoping to breed her when she comes of sexual maturity."

Hearing about Flitter got Selina curious. "How many have pets that their bringing with them to Alfea?"

"I don't have one," Musa stated, before looking downcast at the floor almost in a memory trance. "But I did raise a baby singing whale before, but I had to say goodbye to him years ago."

"Aww, you poor thing," Flora frowned, earning a small smile from Musa that indicated 'don't worry about it', before turning to the sisters. "I have a magiwolf pup called Amarok. He's a bit of a nightmare to transport, so Professor Palladium has offered to pick him up on his next journey to Linphea in about a week."

"I have my light-dove called Glimmer, she's already at Alfea. She's currently on her perch in my room," Stella commented, causing Bloom's face to pale in worry over the idea of a bird and cat being alone together. "Don't worry, Glimmer knows how to deal with herself. Plus I shut the room's door before we left."

This caused Bloom to sigh in relief, before commenting. "Well, you know my pets. And Selina doesn't have one, but she always wanted a snake," this caused Selina to nod in confirmation as she stared out of the window at the passing scenery.

Musa suddenly pipped in again, looking directly at the group's red head. "Um, Bloom. Would it be alright is I hang around with Purr a bit. I love cats..."

"Sure, I don't mind. She loves singing by the way, so I'm sure you'll make a great pair with her," the red head smiled.

Suddenly the bus jerked to a stop, surprisingly the two sisters. "We're here, the jerks are just normal."

"Yes...like everything else," Selina commented with a sarcastic mutter, she definitely wasn't impressed in the absolute slightest. After her 'whine', the group laughed and headed off the bus.

Bloom and Selina spent a few moments just looking around, it was a big city with quite a lot of sci-fi mess. But beyond that...nothing magical like they expected. "So what you girls think?" Stella asked, not understanding what their kinda disappointed faces were implying.

"I don't know really," Bloom commented, with Selina nodding in agreement.

"We just expecting something, I don't know. More unique, like dragons or flying buildings. But this just looks like a one of the mega-metropolis back home."

"Well. Dragons are a thing in this world, but they're not allowed to be loose. Red fountain has dragon stables, but that's as far as dragons really go on Magix. As for floating buildings, I don't know myself. Would look cool," Stella explained.

After hearing that, Tecna shook her head. "One of the zenith cities, not Zenith City itself, has floating buildings. It's not really that ideal, as the hover cars aren't made to go that high with ease and it can be a nightmare due to all the air traffic. It just isn't functional and can be downright annoying."

"Fair enough."

"Besides, look," Stella indicated towards one of the drivers of a hover car, who snapped his fingers to open space in a parking lot. "Magic is just natural, everything lives off it and well thats as magical as this place really gets."

Musa laughed after seeing Bloom's surprised face, but quickly calmed down. "But more than that, lets go eat. I could totally go for some noodles and spring rolls right now."

'Wow...is Melody basically their equivalent to China?' Bloom wondered internally, but shook her head and followed the group to wherever they wished to eat for the evening. She wasn't going to be picky. "I wonder what the menu has?"

"Same, could be anything," Selina whispered back. "Though sounds like they have Chinese food, so that'd be me sold."

Without realizing it, the group passed by a glasses store. Inside said store, the shop keeper was dealing with Knut. The ogre was trying to buy a new pair of glasses, since his old ones just weren't great in the slightest. He was analyzing things with a pair of pink glasses, they looked way too absurd on his yellow skin. When he saw the girls passing by through the window, he froze. "It's her!"

"Who?" the shop keeper asked, clearly not having a good day as it was. The ogre was freaking out and worrying about making the ogre mad, they weren't actually known to be nice creatures. Especially when angered.

"A group of girls outside, one with blonde hair," the ogre grumbled out, clearly not impressed.

"Oh right...they're Alfea students, t-today is the start of the new school year. I assume they're out for some dinner."

This made Knut annoyed and he ripped the pink glasses from his face, slamming them down on the desk and running out of the shop before the keeper could say anything. Knut knew he needed to do something. "I must inform my mistresses immediately. They're here in Magix as well...if they leave," he pulled his phone out and dialed a number in before putting it to his ear.

"Hello?" a silky sweet voice was heard of the line for a moment, before the woman realized who she was talking to. Her voice grew ice-cold and she groaned out in annoyance."Ugh, Knut. What do you want, you borderline useless, smelly ogre?"

"Th-that girl, Stella. She's here in Magix. They were heading downtown...I assume to have dinner or something. I think I saw the ring on her finger."

"Really...that seems almost too good to be true," the voice called out, but she seemed interested at the same time. "Stella's scepter must become ours," suddenly the voice got stronger, making it almost a year. "Now, listen to me! You won't fail us this time! And if you do, I'll make triple sure that you'll never ever again take your glasses off!" after the yell, the voice went back to normal. Though Knut was still shaky. "Got it?"

"I-I promise I won't fail...I go find the girl and stalk her."

Back with the girls, the group was eating their meals. Selina and Musa had brought a pot of noodles that they were sharing with some spring rolls. Flora had a vegaterian dinner, whilst Tecna was eating the bare minimum to sustain her body (Like the exact about of fruits, protein and stuff that you needed in a day). Lastly Bloom and Stella both ordered the same mile, just some fish and chips.

Bloom suddenly felt uncomfortable, something picked up by Flora. "Sweetie, are you doing alright over there?"

"S-sorry. I just need to go to the toilet, I'll be back soon," she said before dashing off. Selina stood up and passed the rest of her food to Musa, who looked surprised.

"I'll be right back, I'm going to make sure she's alright," the rest of the group nodded and watched as Selina followed after her sister.

The pair reunited and were now wandering the city in search of a public bathroom, which they eventually found to Bloom's relief. After finishing up and washing her hands, the girl sighed. "That meal went straight through me...you doing alright?"

"Not well, but I didn't get as bad as you did," she pulled a slip of pills out of her pocket. "Anti-shit tablets. You should know I carry this crap with me everywhere, never know when they're necessary after all."

"Think its because we're not used to magic-cooked food?" Bloom stated as she swallowed the pill and then used her hand plus the nearby tap to wash it down.

"Probably, who knows. Maybe they put fairy dust in the meals or something and we just need to stabilize our stomachs to the meals," the green haired girl shrugged before noticing something in the distance. Yellow and peering around the corner that was where they had came from. "Oh shit, that's the fucking ogre."

Bloom's eyes widened in horror when she spotted what her sister was pointing out. "...He's watching our friends," then she blinked and realized he had walked away. "D-do you think we should go find him?"

"Yes, we should. Who knows what he could want and we don't want our friends to end up hurt, do we?"

The two sisters were in agreement and instantly began running after the ogre, what could they do. They weren't entirely sure, but they had to do something. Eventually they followed him into an alleyway, quickly hiding behind some garbage cans and peered out to see him talking to a trio of people. They couldn't clearly see the individuals though.

"Well?" came a icy voice, making the sisters flinch. As they peered, they saw the ogre move slightly and was finally able to see the individuals. One had long white hair tied into a high ponytail and wore tight blue clothes. Another had chestnut hair, heavy dark makeup that contrasted her pale skin and wore dark purple clothes. And the last one had purple hair and wore red clothes.

" Er... I saw the blonde girl with the magic scepter in the square and, uh...she was with her friends," the two sisters blinked a bit. 'square'...they assumed that the girls had moved and wearing waiting for them at the square that was near the restaurant. "B-but the two other girls, the earthlings, were missing."

Whilst the girls didn't see, the chestnut haired girl suddenly got a sensation with her powers that they were being watched and relayed this information to her 'sisters'. She decided to do something. "I will take care of it," she said before using her magic to duplicate herself. Whilst she did this, Bloom couldn't see a thing due to the ogre being the way. Selina was down on the ground, keeping an eye on the legendarium in case it could come in handy.

The duplicated clone whispered out the plan. "Now all I have to do is disappear...whilst she stays here to appear normal..." the original laughed and moved to fill the gap by the clone after it teleported away.

Bloom was still trying to relay information to Selina, trying to get anything and was actually happy when Knut move the side a bit. But Selina suddenly a scream, but before either could react and leave. They were blasted towards the group by the reappearing clone. The white haired girl smirked as the version of the brunette next to her faded away. "So did you like our little joke. I would suggest turning around?" Selina did so they could look both ways, seeing the clone now as the original.

They were surrounded by what they assumed was witches and they were very terrified. Selina quickly called out. "Expandus," and poured a bit of magic into her beloved book, allowing it to grow and drop into her hands. She didn't know much else to do, but she had to try. She quickly snapped the book open and began reading a random entry. "A-a l-long time ago, there were creatures with a petrifying stare living in the woods of Linphea..."

The book shimmered, surprising the trio of witches as giant creatures suddenly appeared in front of them. They kinda looked like dragons, only missing 2 legs that had become wings instead. Staring at the page in fear, Selina knew they were called 'flying basilisk', creatures capable of freezing individuals with their gaze.

However, what she wasn't accounting for was them fading away. "How pitiful, those magical constructs are based on your own magic. Without enough magic to pump into them, they're worthless," laughed the brown haired woman. Selina was already starting to feel the effects of using magic, and that made her quite depressed.

Bloom saw her terrified sister and instantly wanting to protect her, summoning a bit of energy in attempt to blast it at the witches. But it failed miserably, making her heart break. "Heh, you call that magic," the white haired witch smirked. "I'll show you magic," she said as ice particles began flying out of her hand, making the sisters gasp in horror.

Pillars of ice began to form around the sisters, that they had to narrowly dodge in order to not get skewered. However some managed to slice through their skin during their movement, leaking blood all over the ice. Both girls were beginning to get so cold. "Like my ice magic, it fits my name doesn't it. Remember it well, if you survive that is. That my name is Icy and these are my sisters, Stormy and Darcy."

As if to prove her name, Darcy began making spirals of dark energy that blasted into Bloom and Selina, shattering the ice and sending them flying back. After that, Stormy conjured up a massive tornado that seemed charged by electricity. Selina was able to run away, getting a bit electrocuted by the electricity that rippled off of the tornado. But Bloom wasn't so lucky, getting hurdled into the air and having to make a pitiful attempt to survive by grabbing the edge of a nearby building. Tears filled her eyes, as Selina yelled out. "Bloom!"

Over in the center of town, the girls were beginning to get worried as they sat at a fountain to wait for Bloom and Selina. "Where are they, they were only going to the toilet," Tecna stated, her voice surprisingly laced with worry that wasn't normal for the intelligent girl.

Flora also looked worried. "Maybe they got lost...they are new to these parts," but that only made the group worry more. "Do you think that she got into any trouble?"

"Perhaps," Stella stated with worry. She had only known Bloom and Selina for a day, but she was already beginning to form quite a strong bond with them and didn't want them in any danger that needed be. "Anyone here know a location spell?"

"I do," Musa stated, before using her sound waves to scan the town. "Echolocation!" she yelled out, blasting the sound waves even stronger. It took forever, but the location spell eventually transmitted back to her. "Tecna, think you can analyze it?"

The technology fairy nodded, taking the energy from her friend and analyzing it with her magic to make a map in her hand, 2 glowing green dots formed quickly in a small alleyway not far from their location. But then 3 foreign dots appeared, ones that make Tecna concerned. "Come on, I know where they is. And their not alone.."

"Hold on, Bloom, Selina...we're coming," Stella whispered, worriedly as the group began running towards the alleyway.

Bloom was still hanging on to the ledge with little ways to safely get down, it was at this point where she wished that she could transform into a fairy to save herself. Selina was pitifully standing on the ground, worried to the point of being frozen on the spot. Suddenly Bloom felt her back get really cold as Icy yelled out. "Get down here, I'm not done with you yet!"

She was dragged to the ground and forced into the wall with enough strength to nearly knock her out, definitely getting a concussion as a result. Selina instantly ran over and hugged her sister, being too afraid to do much else. They couldn't do much else. They barely had magic and the other girls were here. She hoped they would get here soon, or that someone else would see what was going on.

"..And now, the final touch," Icy said as she magically incased the sisters in some ice. The two huddled together closer as they felt their legs begin to go cold from the rapidly increasing ice that was beginning to smother their body. They wouldn't survive long, but Bloom, in her fear, was able to generate a bit of heat that slowed the progression of the freezing temperatures and their impeding hypothermia, but unfortunately not the ice.

They were already part of an ice pillar when Icy decided to stop using magic and walk over. "Its a pity really that you decided to meet us...you could have made sweet little fairies, but now you'll just be remembered as the people that decided to cross paths with the Trix," she smirked as she scratched her sharp finger nails down the ice like a chalk board.

"LEAVE HER ALONE!" came the voice of Stella as the group made it to the alleyway, they all looked horrified at the site of the sisters trapped in the ice. "You can take us on instead, you meanies!"

"Pathetic..." Icy grumbled, knowing that this was just a waste of time. They were a gaggle of first years, what could they expect to do against senior witches. So she decided to at least get some enjoyment without having to left a finger. "Knut, they're all yours. Have fun."

Knut let out a growl, that made the 4 fairies jump a bit. Knut began to thunder towards them, attempting to attack them with his meaty arms. But the group was able to quickly dodge out of the way with a powerful jump and activate their transformation. They would be better off in fairy form to deal with this.

Tecna was now wearing a purple sparkly one piece that had a green jewel embedded in the chest with blue arms and blue high-leg heels. On her head was a massive purple helmet with a similar green marking on the front. Her wings...weren't really wings, they were little digital hexagon that stuck out of her back.

Flora was wearing a pink sparkly dress that had darker pink accents, she was wearing small pink heels and on her chest was a flower marking. Her wings were green in the shape of leaves more than anything else. Very much went along with her nature theme. Around her neck was a green band with no other features. And around her arms were pink arm warmers.

Musa's outfit was red in collar, a top with a single strap and a very short skirt that left her mid-drift mostly exposed if it wasn't for the red-tinted transparent material that attached the shirt and skirt. Her shoes were like boots and she was wearing 2 armbands around her shoulders. On her head was some purple headphones to fit the music theme and her wings were small, stubby blue like a dragon fly.

Stella glared down the now terrified Knut with an angered. "Now it's our turn, you animal," she looked like she was ready to murder him and the three witches for freezing Bloom and Selina.

Stormy was quick to recognize who Stella was and with an animated growl, she grumbled out. "She's the girl with the specter!"

"Static Sphere!" Tecna yelled out, blasting green energy at Knut that trapped him in a sphere of green energy that occasionally gave off electric shocks.

Next up with Musa with a yelp out. "Sonic Blast!" as she summoned 2 purple speakers with her magic that blasted high-frequency music into Knut and made him cry out in pain.

"Golden Pollen," was up next, Flora gently blowing some pollen on the ground that soon formed into a vine that quickly grabbed Knut's leg as the static sphere faded. He gasped out in horror as it began to wrap around his body before he could kick it off. Flora was quick to control it to throw Knut away from the situation.

The witch sisters looked exasperated with the useless attempt to beat these freshmen students, with Darcy even face palming. Icy was the only one to make a verbal comment on the situation with. "What a blockhead..." she then turned to glare at the group, as she slammed open her cape to release multiple shards of ice. "You asked for this, you weaklings!"

"Get behind me!" Tecna screeched and once everyone was safely behind her, she quickly called out. "Firewall!" As the shards made contact, they broken into tiny shards and fell to the ground as useless pieces of ice.

Suddenly a blast of lightning was heard and the group gasped out in realization that Stormy had charged her hand with electricity and was now redirecting it at Tecna's firewall, the technology fairy kept her ground firmly with all the power she could. But the firewall soon burst from the strong energy, she wasn't able to protect the group and was blasted away with them. They all landed painfully on the ground.

"And now...time for the worst," came Icy's ice-cold voice as she began preparing to freeze every fairy here to leave them to die, leave no witnesses to say that it was them who attacked the 'innocent' fairies.

Being the only one with enough energy to do anything, Stella quickly pulled out her ring with a yell of. "Solaria!" that caused it to turn into its scepter form. She had to just get them out of there, they had no way of being witches of this power level and she knew that the sisters were losing time. "Lets get out of here, girls," she yelped out with her remaining energy, before swinging the scepter around to make sure enough magic was encasing everyone, including the two frozen sisters.

Just as they teleported away, Icy's magic was released and froze the entire area. She hadn't noticed the usage of the teleportation spell until the fog cleared up and she realized that there wasn't any frozen fairies and that the previously frozen fairies were out of their ice prison. Said ice prison was now cracked and broken. "Curses," she hissed. "They got away!"

The group had teleported back to the fountain, Bloom and Selina were absolutely exhausted from their experience in the ice. Bloom was doing a bit better, her internal flame supporting most of her energy. But she was still shivering and Selina was even worst, with little cries of pain from her numbed joints. Knowing she needed to work fast, Stella quickly grabbed both of Selina's arms and began pumping her light energy into the girl for heat. "Flora, you have life energy. Right? Can you hand some of it to Bloom, her internal fire could do with a little life..."

"Right," Flora nodded, beginning to shower Bloom with life energy. With each dosage, her breathing eased and shivering began to slow. The group could see her body glowing red like fire, clearly indicating that she was getting better at warming herself up. Meanwhile, Selina was also beginning to do better.

"W-who were they..." Bloom was able to shaky say, as she somehow subconsciously continued to internally heat herself up. Now she could understand a bit better why she never felt cold in the winter back on Earth, an internal fire sounded cool. Well not cool...but definitely nice.

"Well, I can confirm that they are witches," Tecna stated as she looked at the pair of sisters with worried eyes. "That's what my data said when I was able to find your location. But that's all I know, I don't know any witches personally."

"It's alright, Selina," Stella whispered in a comforting voice as she continued to try and warm up the legends fairy, who looked sad and cold. "You're safe here..."

Finally finding her voice, Selina could only whisper in a depressive and weak tone. "...I couldn't do anything...and Bloom got her h-head hurt because..."

"Shh, sweetie, it isn't your fault. Those witches are too blame, nobody expects you to be good at magic. You've only known about it for a day," Flora commented, hugging the green haired girl gently.

"B-but..."

"No buts. Sis, I'm fine now," Bloom whispered, her strength beginning to come back. Weakly, she moved over and joined Flora in hugging the fairy of legend. "Don't blame yourself...you tried, plus you didn't know that the legendarium relied on your own strength."

The sad fairy nodded, leaning on Bloom's shoulder sleepily. She was tired and still quite cold, but Stella's warming and Bloom's naturally high body heat were both helping. Musa, who knew how it felt to feel weak, was looking sad for the two girls. "What can we do?"

"Stella, can't you teleport us closer to Alfea?" Flora asked, finally stopping her flow of life energy into Bloom. She could feel Bloom's temperature rising quickly and knew it was no longer necessary to keep using her own strength, it wouldn't be good for anyone to become overly weak right now.

"Can't unfortunately," the light fairy groaned, looking a bit annoyed at herself for that piece of knowledge. It would be so much helpful if she could just teleport back, wouldn't it. "It's really exhausting to use that type of magic, another usage of it would probably make us land in Cloud Tower instead of Alfea. Do you think any of the buses are still running?"

Hearing this, Tecna began to check. "The last one leaves in 10 minutes, it stops about 2-minutes away so we need to get moving. The last bus arrives at Alfea past the curfew so that won't be too great, so we'll probably have to inform Headmistress Faragonda. But I doubt she'd punish us for being late on account of this incident."

The group nodded, before moving to help the two frail girls. Musa and Tecna grabbed hold of Bloom whilst Flora and Stella had hold of Selina. They were able to make it to the bus in time and just collapsed into a child. The sisters looked ready to fall asleep, but the girls needed to keep them awake. Bloom especially couldn't sleep yet due to her suspected concussion from slamming into a wall.

Once they arrived back at Alfea, the sun had already set beneath the clouds. Griselda was waiting on the courtyard, having known that the girls had headed out earlier. She looked stern initially until she saw the state that the two Falade sisters were in. "What happened to the Falade sisters, Princess Stella?"

Stella sighed, knowing that she'd have to explain since she was the princess of the group and oldest. "They got attacked by a group of senior witches and their ogre friend, the ogre was the same one that attacked me and the sisters on Earth," the look of horror of Griselda's face was immense. "They mentioned something about the Ring of Solaria as well."

"This is quite serious indeed," Griselda nodded, sighing. "Take the sisters to Mrs Ophelia and then head to bed. I'll inform Miss Faragonda about this event."

The group nodded, heading inside. Once Bloom and Selina were seen by the nurse, who confirmed that Bloom didn't get a concussion and just a minor headache. The girls were given some medicine and then sent to bed, with the warning to just be cautious. The group headed back to the dorm after that.

Once back in the dorms, the group had gathered in Bloom and Flora's room. Bloom was laying on the bed tiredly whilst Selina was leaning against the wall. Musa was stood next to the green haired fairy of myth whilst Tecna was stood nearby the door. Flora was sat on her bed, which wasn't too far away and Stella was sat on the floor with a plushie in her arms. On her head was a white dove, Glimmer.

Bloom looked pretty peaceful despite her tired complexion and she had her hands grasping something that she had made the previous night. It was a partial dream of hers to end up in a group like this...so she hoped that the girls liked her idea.

"What'cha holding there, Bloom?" Musa stated, spotting the piece of paper in the tired redhead girl's arm

"Oh...I made this yesterday. After learning I had magic...I wondered maybe if I would meet a group of people to form...well like a club with. So I painted this last night," she sat up a bit and showed them her drawing. It was completely in blue, just a small writing of the word 'Winx' with the X looking like a pair of wings.

"What does Winx mean?" Tecna had to ask, she was the logical one of the group and she had never heard of the word before. And she had read the dictionary back to forth.

"...Well..." Bloom blushed a little. "I thought about 'wings'...but I decided that 'winx' could sound really cute and its simple and catchy...do you not like it?"

"Nah, I vote for it. If we're gonna make a group, it's a cool name to go with," Musa stated, smiling at the girl. Selina nodded in agreement, having already seen her sister's logo the day prior.

"Plus a name is good for a quick reference, it'll be faster than saying everyone's name. There is 6 of us and that alone can take a while to say," Tecna said, her logical response in the situation.

"Yes, it's perfect. Having a name. I mean, those witches called themselves the 'Trix', didn't they. So we can totally have a name. Good idea, Bloom.," Stella took hold of Bloom's logo with a smile. "Lets pin this up outside, so everyone knows that this is the Winx's room."

With that said, everyone agreed with a laugh. Stella went off to do that and once she was back. Everyone agreed that it was late and they needed to be up for classes, so they all began to head to sleep. Bloom stayed up for a bit longer, listening to her pets and Flora peacefully snore away. She could see Flora from her position and it made her smile. She actually had friends now, not just her sister. It was great...

Hope you enjoyed chapter 2.
