Alfea - Afternoon
During Defense Class, Bloom was giving a demonstration of a blind obstacle course. Ruby was blindfolded and was relying on her instincts to get the blue rose. "If you get hit by three obstacles, you have to start from the beginning," Bloom declared.
Ruby decided to sense the flowers through the Akayuki. She felt the strong blue rose nearby, she flew up, grab the rose and landed. "That was close," she said as she removed her blindfold.
"Go, Rube!" Joanna shouted.
"You're up, Vulcana," announced Bloom.
Vulcana walked up while Joanna said, "Go, Vulky."
Vulcana removed her glasses and said, "Magic Wind!" After she placed on her blindfold, she was ready for her instinct test.
"I was nearly close to getting the Ruby," Namira said. "I usually use shooting star powers to handle it."
Desceptio Manor Same Time
DeVivian was dirtying up the house when she saw some 4 red witches come in. They were her younger siblings: DeVictor, DeVincent, DeVerna, and DeViolet.
DeVictor brought up his daughter, DeVanessa. DeVanessa had armpit-length red hair and wore steampunk devil clothes. She had been wanting to try out her new curse. "DeVanessa," DeVivian said, "tell me about your curse."
"Let's just say it happens during a lunar eclipse," DeVanessa explained. "Hold a bloodstone by your head and say 'Fiends forever' three times. It works quickly."
"Brilliant, my niece," DeVivian smiled. "Why don't you go with Cousin Devi and Cousin DeVille with you to try out this spell?"
"This sounds just like our friends breaking up spell-" Devi started.
"-the same one we used on the Two-Left-Feet Tornado" DeVille finished.
"What do you two have in mind?" DeVanessa asked.
Red Fountain - Same Time
Marcel, Jan, and Hunter were going through the blueprints to the Desceptio Manor. "Jan, Hunter," Marcel explained, "the Desceptio Manor has hundreds of guard monsters and security detail."
"I know, man," Hunter replied, "but did you find a way to let me and Rubester get in?"
"I have. Thanks for asking," Marcel answered as he showed the plans to Hunter.
Alfea - Night
Ruby and Strawberry were relaxing when they heard a knock on the door. Strawberry was scared, but Ruby had a feeling something was going on. "Hunter," asked Ruby, "what are you doing here?"
"Hoping that you don't have any plans, girl," Hunter answered.
"Maybe help Strawberry count sheep," Ruby answered.
"Or perhaps a sneak into the Desceptio Manor," suggested Hunter. "While they sleep, we'll have a look at some books."
"I read a little bit on Ruby the Ronin a while back," Ruby recalled. "Maybe we can learn more about the Akayuki."
Desceptio Manor
DeVanessa was dirtying up the house when The Twinnasties came in to talk about DeVanessa's Fiends Forever spell. "There's an old saying, Cousin DeVanessa-" Devi started.
"-been there, done that," DeVille finished.
"I do have a backup spell that will scare the snowflakes off of that Blue Ruby," explained DeVanessa as she whispered her evil plan to them.
"We like that plan-" Devi started.
"-a whole lot better," DeVille finished.
Magix City
Hunter, Ruby and Strawberry were by the Desceptio Manor. "Maybe it's time I use my new teleportation spell." Ruby suggested.
In one end to another, take us inside the Desceptio Manor.
In a flash, Hunter, Ruby, and Strawberry were inside the manor. "Check out this crib," whispered Hunter. "Looks like they need to take better care of the place. House insurance cost millions of grands, yo."
"Yeah," Ruby replied. "I remember coming in here and they were gross."
In the library, they found a book called "Rozufuereku," meaning that it might be a key to the army. "Where do the Akayuki come from?" asked Ruby.
"The Rōzufurēku Army breaks hearts and makes people miserable," explained the voice in the book. "You are destined to be evil, Ruby Snowdrop."
"I think the Akayuki is evil," Ruby cried. "I give everyone the cold shoulder."
They ran out of the mansion. Hunter tried to call her, but she was still upset.
Alfea - The Next Day
Rosie was brushing her hair when Pamela, Namira, Joanna and Vulcana barged in. "Rose," Joanna quickly said, "we got ourselves an emergency."
"Like, what is it?" asked Rosie
"Ruby never came back," Vulcana explained.
"We just got a call from Hunter," Namira explained. "He told us that she's going back to Alfea on foot."
"Like, we have to find her," Rosie said.
Magic Winx
Rosie, Fairy of Love
Vulcana, Fairy of Flowers
Joanna, Fairy of Wind
Pamela, Fairy of Sweets
Namira, Fairy of Dreams
Outside, Namira decided to use her new navigation spell.
Dreamy Navigaty
They saw the cloud going east, meaning that Ruby must've been in the same direction. They found Ruby asleep in an ice coffin. The Sparx needed a way to snap Ruby out of it, fast. Pamela decided to do a little spell to save her.
Deception Donuts
In her mind, she saw the trick DeVanessa pulled. "The book was a fake," Pamela telepathically said. "It used to lower your confidence, Ruby. They're still after your powers and your beauty."
In rage, Ruby snapped out of it.
Magic Winx
Ruby, Fairy of Snow
"I can't believe how gullible I was," snarled Ruby. She looked around till she found the Twinnasties and DeVanessa celebrating. "Time for a party crash!" she shouted.
Icey Illusion
She made a hologram of a giant polar bear, which scared Devi and DeVille away. DeVanessa didn't fall for it because she's all about illusions. That's when Ruby the Ronin came in and played her song. "I may not be scared of holographic polar bears," DeVanessa shouted, "but I *am* scared of ghosts!"
Ruby saw her aunt's spirit, and Ruby the Ronin said, "Don't worry, my niece. I'll take good care of you."
Alfea - Room C530
Pamela was treating Ruby to some herbal chocolate tea. "It's good to have you back, Ruby," Pamela smiled. "We missed you so much."
"Yeah, girl," Joanna replied. "5 more seconds and Rosie would've placed makeup in class again."
Strawberry was trying to lift some weights with Pamela's tea bags, but accidentally tossed them on the ground.
Everyone laughed.
The End.
