A few days had passed, and poor Musa was getting all fidgety waiting for her guy to show up again. Her cause wasn't helped by the weather - it was the weekend, but as nature has a habit of doing a heavy April shower had been doing its thing all day. She sat staring out of the window into Alfea's courtyard - if her Tegryn was to come walking into the castle, she certainly didn't want to miss it.

The others were all sat in the lounge with her - Stella was crashed out on the sofa reading her fashion magazines, Tecna was busy browsing the web for anything interesting, and Layla was occupying herself playing with Piff.

"Man, I'm so bored," said Bloom. "This weather sucks!"

Layla shrugged her shoulders. "Rain doesn't bother me."

"Of course it wouldn't bother you, you're a water fairy!" laughed Stella. "Besides, your hair isn't quite as fabulous as mine so it doesn't matter if you get it wet!"

"Hey!" shouted Layla as she hurled the nearest available cushion at Stella.

"Oh, you're gonna get it now!" Stella said, flinging it back. That was the cue for a rather jolly pillow fight, but their fun and laughter was suddenly interrupted by a loud knock at the door. Flora answered it.

"Oh. That's odd, there's no-one here." she said confused, but just as she was about to close the door, she noticed a folded piece of paper laying on the floor.

"Hello, what's this?" She picked it up and read it:

URGENT!

Please come to the Dining Hall IMMEDIATELY!

PS: Did I mention this was URGENT?

"Ooh, sounds urgent."

"Shall we check it out?"

"Well, there's nothing else to do, is there?"

And so they walked down to the main dining hall. As they approached it, they noticed the Starz walking in the same direction.

"Hey guys," Bloom called out to them. "What are you up to?"

"We got a message saying we should go to the dining hall," said Anyuna holding out a piece of paper - it was almost identical to the Winx's letter.

"Oooh, it's a party and we're all invited!" said Stella excitedly.

"A party, eh?" said Tecna. "So what are THEY doing here?"

Just ahead of them, they could see Faragonda and Griselda - they also seemed to be heading the same way.

"Hi!" said Bloom jogging up to them. "Ummm, don't tell me - you got a note saying you should come to the dining hall straight away, right?"

"Well, yes... how did you know?" Faragonda replied as she showed them an identical letter. "We were in the staffroom discussing lessons for the week ahead, when we were disturbed by a knock on the door, but when I opened it there was no-one there - just this letter!"

"Same here - well, except we weren't discussing lessons."

"No," said Layla laughing and nudging Stella, "We had more important things to do!"

"Well, here we are! Somebody has obviously gone to a lot of trouble to get us here together, so shall we?"

They opened the doors and walked in. At the end of one of the tables sat Sky, Brandon, Timmy, Riven and Helia.

"Hi guys!" said Bloom happily (seeing Sky always made her day). "You didn't have to go to all this trouble for us. Why did you bring us here anyway?"

Sky chuckled. "Oh, this is nothing to do with us - we're guests here too!"

"So who's..."

"Ah there you are!" came a friendly call from the direction of the kitchen. "I hope you're all hungry, we've been rather busy here!"

They looked over to see a welcome figure wheeling a hostess trolley laden with freshly-cooked food.

"Teggy?" asked Musa, barely able to contain herself. "TEGGY!"
