Ch 7: "Their Trip"

Riven's Leva-bike

'I wonder where we are going' wondered Musa to herself. 'Oh well I'll just go along for the ride and let him surprise me,' then she decided to surprise him and tighten her grip around him and laid her head on his back. She watched around to see all the trees and stuff pass by them. Just then Riven took a turn on his leva-bike and started going through the woods and pulled up to a giant boulder. The two got off the bike and he leaned his bike against the boulder, took Musa's hand, and led her around the boulder to reveal a crystal clear blue lake that was sparkling, because of the moonlight.

"Wow, it's beautiful," said Musa looking around in amazement.

"It's okay, but you know what's beautiful around here?" he said.

"What?"

"You," he said as he lifted her head to where his eyes were looking directly into hers, and leaned into kiss her and kissed her softly on the lips. Then he picked her up bridal style and carried her over to the lake and sat her down at the edge of the lake. The two laid down and looked up at the stars above them.

"They are so beautiful," said Musa looking up at the stars. Then Riven scooted over to where he was laying right behind her and wrapped his arms around her waist. In return, she rolled over to where they were face to face and kissed him as she tried to pull back from the kiss, Riven wouldn't let her; he just kept the connection going.

Thankfully, for Musa, he let go for air and laid his head on her shoulder and whispered something in her ear. "Excuse me, what did you say I didn't quite catch that?" she smirked.

"I said…I love you," he whispered in her ear. Then he kissed her lightly on the forehead and gave her one of his trademark smirks. Just then a black portal appeared behind them and out came the three witches: Icy, Stormy, and Darcy.

"You witches, what are you doing here?" yelled Musa as she transformed into her winx form.

"Oh nothing just figured I'd get you back for taking away my puppy dog," smirked Darcy.

"Remember, you dumped me so she really didn't take me away," Riven said taking out his saber.

"Yeah whatever," said Darcy as she blasted Musa back into a tree. Then Riven in a great furry went to cut her with his saber but missed and instead hit Icy and Stormy, and the two fell straight to the ground.

"Listen Darcy we're out," said Icy as she teleported her and Stormy out.

"Whatever who needs them, anyways," said Darcy. Just then Musa stood up and blasted Darcy back into a tree and said, "So how does it feel?"

"What you think this hurts? Yeah right but I bet this does," she laughed as she blasted Musa and sent her flying into a tree and teleported out.

"MUSA!" shouted Riven as he ran over to her beaten and bloody unconscious body and picked her up in his arms and headed to his leva-bike. He placed his helmet on her and started to leave one hand holding her body and the other driving.

As Riven pulled up to the front doors all the girls and their boyfriends ran up to him as he got off the bike with her in his arms.

"What happened?" asked Bloom with a very worried look on her face.

"The witches," growled Riven as he walked by them and headed towards Ofelia's office.

Ofelia's Office

"We need some help," said Riven as he walked in with Musa in his arms.

"Oh my goodness, what happened to her?" Ofelia said as she looked at Musa's beaten body.

"We were in the woods and some witches attacked her," said Riven as he laid her down on one of the metal beds with white sheets.

"Oh, ok well go and get Mrs. Faragonda, NOW!" said Ofelia. Riven stood up shook his head and walked out the door.

"Oh, now girl what have you gotten yourself into," said Ofelia as she looked down at the unconscious junior's body.

"Ofelia, what happened?" asked Mrs. F. as she walked in.

"The boy said that they were in the woods when a group of witches attacked her," said Ofelia as she wiped Musa's body clean, and inspected all of her injuries.

"Mrs. Faragonda would you mind getting the boy I need to look and see if he has any injuries?" asked Ofelia. Mrs. F. nodded stood up and walked over to the door, opened it and signaled Riven to come in. Riven stood up and walked into the office.

"How is she?" he asked looking over at Musa.

"Fine, a couple of broken bones and some scratches, that's it. Now sit down and let me look at you," said Ofelia pointing to the bed across the room from Musa's.

He sat down and Ofelia walked over to him looked him up and down and said, "No scratches or anything that is very weird."

"I know the witches didn't seem interested at me at all, they just kept blasting Musa," he said as he looked down at the floor.

"Now Riven I called Mr. Saladin and talked to him and both of us agree that the two of you need a day off, so tomorrow you both have been excused from classes, but because the witches are after Musa and we have no idea why yet, Mr. Saladin suggested that you look after her tomorrow, but she is not permitted to leave school grounds, so what do you say?" asked Mrs. F.

"Okay," he replied. Just then all of Musa's friends came running in and asked all of these questions about how she was and what happened and so on and so forth.

"She is okay, a few broken bones some scratches, but she does need some rest, but we will allow one of you girls to stay with her," said Ofelia smiling to the girls as they argued over who would stay. They finally came to an agreement that Bloom would stay and if she woke up Bloom would immediately call the rest of the girls, so all the girls left and Riven left for Red Fountain. Bloom then pulled a chair over to Musa's bed and got comfortable and fell asleep.
