Author's Note: I thought I'd throw you guys in an extra update today : ) Enjoy.
Kimberly walked into Stormy's room. Stormy had been staring outside all afternoon.
"Are you all right?"
"You know… I'm actually starting to believe there is this higher force… punishing me for my deeds"
Kimberly sat down next to Stormy.
"What did you do?" She asked, placing a hand on Stormy's shoulder.
"I'm not sure if…"
"Look… we're all outcast here, so… we don't judge each other by our deeds"
Stormy hesitated before she started to speak. "Me and my sisters… we come from a long line of witches…"
All the women in our family devoted their lives to the darkest of magic, and spreading evil and despair… and the main goal in all those generations was to obtain the most powerful magic there is, and use it to rule the universe… Icy, Darcy and I were raised by those norms. We were born solely to continue that legacy and in time our children ought to do the same.
Our mother told us everything that was bad. Any 'good' behaviour was severely punished… When I was four, I could make 10 year old faeries cry…
Icy was the meanest of us, as the eldest she took Darcy and me under her wing when we got to Cloud Tower. We aced every class, but that didn't matter. The only reason we went to the school was because we could get better access to the resources. While behaving like the perfect witches towards the teachers, we gathered all the information there was on the ultimate power that our family had so long tried to get hold off.
The Dragon Fire, it was supposed to help us create an army that would wipe away anyone who opposed us. Four years had we spent in that dull school before we finally found it… Inside a faerie.
"What did you do?"
Stormy smirked "Icy fell in love with her… our whole legacy ended right there"
"You and your sister must have been really pissed"
"We found out by a message on Icy's phone, replied and went to meet her instead of Icy. I… I don't think she would have been alive today if Darcy hadn't come with me and stopped me before it got out of hand…"
"…How…do you feel about it now?"
"I don't know, frankly I don't care what they do anymore… maybe we can have a normal life from now on… at least the other two"
"And you parents?"
"Never knew our father… and thank god our mother isn't around anymore to see how miserably we failed…"
"But what does it all have to do with the nurse?"
"I think she is roommates with my sister's faerie…"
"Oh… Ok" Kimberly said cheerfully.
Stormy looked at her for a while before she asked, "Why are you here?"
"Drugs…" Kimberly replied plain and simple "So, don't get freaked out if I act all weird, when I need something"
Caitlin ran into the room hiding under the bed.
"What are you doing" Stormy yelled
"Hiding!"
"Why?"
A stench forced its way into the room, like something was burning. Kimberly focused to Caitlin "You didn't!"
While nurses were panicking in the hallway and extinguishing the fire doc walked into the room and kneeled next to the bed. "Caitlin, time to come out from under there"
Caitlin carefully climbed out from under the bed and stood in front of the doc not casting her eyes away from her shoes. The doc didn't say anything, waited for her to speak. She looked up at him starting to plead. "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to do it, I couldn't help it please don't make me go to my room"
"You know I have no choice"
"But, but,…"
The doc laid his arm around the girl's shoulders and led her out "It's ok now"
Kimberly shook her head woefully; Stormy just stared at the doorway. "What… Why…"
"Caitlin," Kimberly explained, "She's a fire starter… and now they're gonna give her a shot so she won't wake up before the morning."
At that moment the twins ran past the door making a lot of noise pretending to be fire trucks.
"What's their story?"
"They… are just crazy" Kimberly left to go to her room.
Stormy continued her staring outside… will she ever make it out off here?

Author's Notes: What would happen if Caitlin ever were to meet Bloom … I can imagine that the Trix girls didn't get the love and tenderness that other children get… Time to move on :)
