Winx Club sad AU

(A/N: I own nothing and read last chapter.)
"This is the place." Griselda said walking up to the door and knocking on it firmly. In less than a minute the door was opened by a blond man with a muscular build.
"You must be the teacher from Blooms magic school. My name's Mike, my wife called to let me know you were coming. Sorry but I'm afraid Bloom is too sick for visitors today." The man said shaking Griseldas hand and causing her eyes to narrow at his aura.
"Yes, your wife told me Ms. Bloom wasn't feeling well. Luckily I am well versed in most basic medical spells, perhaps if you let me in to see her I can find out what is wrong with her and cure it." Griselda said causing Mike to sigh slightly as he moved aside to let her in. She nodded in thanks to him as she passed through the doorway before stopping as he closed the door behind her while she looked around the normal looking house.
"Would you like anything to drink?" Mike asked as he directed her to the living room. Griseldas eyes flashed at what his aura said at this before she disguised it just as quickly as it came.
"No thank you. I'm not very thirsty at the moment. I presume Ms. Bloom is in her room resting?" Griselda asked noting the loud music coming from upstairs, hmm seemed like Bloom had a very…different taste in music than the normal fairy did.
"Yeah last I checked she was asleep. Sorry about the music but Bloom insisted that it play, said that it distracted her from how unwell she felt before she pulled out the puppy dog eyes on me. She's a master at those." Mike said with a chuckle while his aura began to rant, causing Griseldas eyes to narrow further at what it was saying.
"Hmm. I'll make sure to warn the other teachers of that. May I go up to see her?" Griselda asked motioning to the stairway and causing Mike to nod his head as he sat down on a chair and motioned for her to take the couch across from him.
"Of course you can but first I was wondering why you came all this way to speak with Bloom." Mike said causing Griselda to sit on the couch tensely as she took some papers from her pocket.
"These papers here show Ms. Blooms grades during a small exchange program with the rival school, Cloud Tower for witches, as well as several comments from the teachers at Alfea, as well as those from Red Fountain and Cloud Tower. Despite the fact that most fairies cannot use witch magic at all, and if they can it is to a very small degree, Bloom has shown signs of having very strong dark magic which would technically make her a witch." Griselda began, laying the notes out on the coffee table and causing Mike to look at them only to scratch his head, causing Griselda to smirk. The notes were charmed so that only those with magic could read them, to everyone else it looked like it was in a different language entirely.
"However, as you know, Ms. Bloom is a fairy so the strong dark magic combined with her powerful fairy magic would therefor make her something incredibly rare in the Magical universe…a fairy-witch hybrid. For someone to be a fairy-witch hybrid they have to come from a union between two people one from a mainly fairy family, the other from a predominately witch or warlock family which is quite rare as most witches and fairies cannot stand each other." Griselda explained causing Mike to nod slightly, showing that he understood so far.
"To keep her darker magic from wreaking havoc out of control she will need to attend some Cloud Tower classes. Also the teachers have noted that sometimes during stressful situations Ms. Bloom seems to forget she has magic and instead uses what one of the Red Fountain teachers identified as a mix of different Earth martial arts." Griselda said tapping one of the papers with her finger as the song that was playing changed to a different one that caused her eyebrow to rise in amusement. What were the chances of a song about Kung Fu Fighting playing right then?
"Yes Bloom has always loved fighting for some reason and mostly trained herself in different types of martial arts. You won't believe how many times she accidentally pulled one or two of her muscles while trying to figure it out herself." Mike said with a fond chuckle that didn't have Griselda fooled for one second as she collected the papers and put them all back into her pocket which was linked to a small sub space so that she could store just about anything in it.
"I would actually, and for that reason I will be talking to her about taking some Red Fountain classes to refine her knowledge on different fighting techniques and possibly introduce her to some new ones to see how compatible she is with them." Griselda said before rising to her feet and nodding at Mike.
"Now if you'll excuse me I need to go check in on my student and possibly heal her." Griselda said and before he could respond she was already halfway up the stairs. She heard him squawk startled at her sudden movement before he scrambled up and after her. Knowing that he was planning something unsavory thanks to his aura ranting about it, she placed a small spell on the stair beneath her that would slow down anyone who tried to walk up it behind her.
She was about to open the door to the room that had a sign on it that read 'Bloom's Chambers Stay out for your own safety' on the door, when she heard Mike tumble down the stairs when he stepped on the spelled stair. She smirked for a second before turning the doorknob and opening the door, flicking on the lights to the room as she entered it only to stop dead in her tracks.
Her beloved student was chained down to the bed post with several visible wounds on her body which was, thankfully, still clothed. Her eyes and mouth were covered with white blood stained cloths, she was so skinny that Griselda could see her ribs through her shirt, and she was obviously unconscious. For the first time in over ten years a horrified scream ripped from Griselda's throat, causing many in the streets to jump and look around for the source of the scream.
"BLOOM!"
