"Welcome to Magix. Thank you for using the magic transport station and please enjoy your stay." Was heard as Helia stepped off of the transport pad. He made his way through the still familiar streets to the bus stop. Even after being gone for over a year he still remembered this place like the back of his hand.

Helia sat on the bus as he waited, watching the people passing by. The bustle through the city was different than what he had become once again acquainted to on Knightly but at the same time not unfamiliar.

In the middle of his musings the bus arrived and Helia got up from his seat and entered the bus. He looked at the window at the passing view. The bus passes black mud swamp, Alfea, and went through the forest before finally making it to Red Fountain. The bus came to a stop and Helia walked off and made his way through the ruins of his old school.

Looking around Helia couldn't help but be shocked at the extent of the damage. He remembered every part of this building. He had been coming here years before he even attended to visit his grandfather and had every turn memorized. Now it was all gone and it was because of three power hungry witches.

Even now looking at the destruction though, he knew it still could have been so much worse.

Helia walked through the halls on his way to his grandfather's office. The sound of laughter made him look over at four boys. They were laughing loudly as they walked through the hall with their arms thrown around each other to keep them standing.

One of them had shoulder length blonde hair, another had short brown hair, the third boy had ginger hair and glasses, and the last had spiked back magenta colored hair.

Helia passed them as they, he assumed, went back to their dorm. Turning the next corner Helia reached the door to Saladin's office and knocked on it. "Come in"

Saladin looked up from the papers on his desk as his grandson walked in. "Ah Helia my boy, it's so good to see you again."

"Hello grandfather, it's good to see you to it's been a while."

"Yes with everything going on I haven't seen you since your last day at Red Fountain before you transferred."

"Yes well I'm enjoying art school. How has everything been going here with the witch invasion and all last year?"

"We pulled through, don't you worry about that. Now why don't we get you settled where you'll be staying for the week." With that Saladin stood from his desk and lead Helia to his room.

They arrived at a door and Saladin opened it and walked through with Helia following after him. "As happy as I am to see you again grandfather this is only a visit. At the end of the week I'm going back to art school."

Saladin nodded his head absently. "Yes of course, of course. Now why don't you get yourself settled and then come back to my office? There are some people I would like you to meet." Saladin turned to leave but stopped just before he walked out the door. "Oh and before I forget, I believe these belong to you." Saladin pulled from his pocket a pair of laser string gloves and held them out to Helia.

"Grandfather I really don't-" Helia started but was not given the chance to finish his statement.

"Helia please take them, just in case. After all, you never know."

With a sigh Helia nodded his head and accepted the gloves. Saladin left and Helia turned back to face the room. Walking to the bed he discarded the gloves onto the table beside his bed and began to put his things away.

Having finished unpacking Helia made his way back to the office. Again he knocked on the door and waited for an answer before entering.

"Come in"

He pushed open the door and stepped inside the office. Along with his grandfather were now the four boys he had seen laughing in hallway when he first arrived at the school for heroics and bravery.

"Ah Helia, perfect timing. Let me introduce you. This is Prince Sky, Brandon, Timmy, and Riven. Boys this is my grandson Helia. They are some of our top students here, in fact had you still been enrolled here yourself you all would have been in the top rank." Saladin explained as he introduced the boys, pointing at each one in turn.

"You used to attend Red Fountain Helia?" asked Sky.

Before Helia could answer himself Saladin spoke up again. "Why yes, Helia was at the top of his class before he transferred schools."

"What school did you transfer to?" this question came from Timmy.

"I go to art school on my home planet, Knightly. I'm a pacifist and couldn't find a reason to stay here any longer." Helia admitted to them.

"Wait you're telling me a pacifist was Red Fountains top student?" Riven commented.

"Riven!" was heard from the other three boys as the one Helia had found out was named Brandon backhanded Riven to the head.

"What?" he asked outraged while rubbing the back of his head where Brandon had just hit him. The others in the room just shook their heads and Sky apologized for him. "Sorry about him Helia, he has no filter."

"Don't worry about it." Helia told him unaffected by Riven's attitude.

Saladin clearing his throat brought them out of their conversation and had the four specialists standing in attention. "Anyway, you boys will be showing Helia around and he will be watching your classes. Please make him feel welcome." This last part was directed at Riven but nobody dared to say anything about it.

"Yes sir." Sky, Brandon, Timmy, and Riven said in sync.

"Good, you're all excused. Go enjoy the rest of the day." With that dismissal the five boys left the Headmaster alone in the office and walked through the halls back to the boys' dorm room.

The boys all sat themselves around the room and fell into silence. Eventually the awkwardness in the room became too much and Helia decided to break it. "So tell me something about yourselves, what do you guys usually do when you're not in class?"

"You mean when we're not helping a group of fairies fight off the forces of complete and utter evil?" Brandon asked with a smirk on his face.

At Helia's confused expression Timmy explained what Brandon was talking about. "He means the Winx Club, Bloom, Stella, Flora, Musa, Tecna, and Layla. Layla just joined their friend group this year but last year the other girls are the ones that defeated the Trix during the witch invasion."

"Yeah Stella's my girlfriend, the others have yet to make things official but Sky's with Bloom, Timster's with Tecna, and Riven will deny it but he's got a thing for Musa." Brandon couldn't help but make the dig at Riven but before he could come up with a comeback Sky put his hand over his mouth and started to speak.

"Yeah and then Flora and Layla are single. Now this year the Trix broke out of Light Rock where they were serving their sentence and teamed up with Lord Darkar from Shadowhaunt. Earlier in the year Brandon, Bloom, Stella, Layla, and I went down there to rescue the pixies. Then when we got them back some of them ended up bonding with the girls. There's Lockette, Amore, Chatta, Tune, Digit, and Piff. You'll probably be seeing them around at some point."

"The girls are always getting themselves into the middle of something. Last year we were sent after them to the lost planet of Sparx. That's where Bloom's from, she the last princess. Apparently when the three ancestresses attacked the planet her sister Daphne was able to send her away to Earth and there she was found and raised by an Earth couple until the Blonde Stella found her and brought her to Alfea." His three friends looked at him with wide eyes. "What? Just because I don't care about things doesn't mean I don't listen to it and retain the information." The scowl that had previously left his face was back again after this.

Helia sat in silence as he took in the information he was given. Looking around at the people in front of him he came to the realization that this would definitely be an interesting week.
