"What is the problem?" Ms. Faragonda asked them once she realized that her office was now filled with young fairies.
"Well Musa found this ancient chest, but we were not able to touch it. Yet, she managed to carry it all the way here." said Tecna because she was the first one to find out about the problem.
"Flora tried as well but she could not open it either." Bloom was announcing another part of their failed results on opening the box.
"It's meant for one of you to open it." revealed Ms. Faragonda after she listened to the teens' story.
"One of us?" asks Stella with confusion evident on her face.
"Yes, that is exactly what I am saying. I want you to go in this order Tecna you go first, Stella, Flora, Layla, Bloom and last Musa." Ms. Faragonda instructed the girls as they made a line to see who would be the one to open the chest.
All the girls tried but none were able to open it not even...Bloom could open the chest with her Dragonfire.
Now it was Musa turn to attempt, 'I want to find out what's inside, so would you allow me to open you?' Musa thought while she reached for the chest and was surprised that the barrier did not appear around the chest.
When the top creaked opened, she saw a gem holder against a rainbow colored fur that supported the holder.
The teen gently picked up the gem holder within her grasp. It had nine spots open for gems or whatever circular objects it can hold.
"What is it?" asking Musa while examining it throughly.
"It is call the Navaratna or the Nine Jeweled Holder." Ms. Faragonda answered her question.
"What is it called again?" Stella was wondering not paying attention the first time when Ms. F was saying its name.
"The Navaratna, the Nine Jewels, it is said that it has unnatural powers. If the wielder collects all nine jewels, which are a Diamond, Pearl, Hessonite, Garnet, Sapphire, Cat's Eye, Yellow Sapphire (or a Topaz), Emerald and a Ruby. Each jewel would boost the wielder's magic, also with the jewel powers come guardians as well." explained Ms. Faragonda to the girls on what was the Navaratna.
"But she already has Tune," Layla was mentioning after hearing what Ms. F was telling them. "I know that but these guardians are different, with each gem, you receive a guardian that you can use for offensive or defensive purposes." Ms Faragonda replied to Layla's statement.
"Is there more to this Navaratna?" a curious Bloom asks.
"A lot more, it is powerful than the Dragonfire." stated Ms. Faragonda as she peered at their faces.
"No way!" shouted the girls in unison as they turned to stare at Musa before they focused back on their Headmistress.
"Yes, the Navaratna picks a fairy every 2,000 years. This means that a war is upcoming and evil may take over the world." Ms. Faragonda was responding before continuing on her statement, "Another thing is that if you want to use it correctly, you have to learn witchcraft in order to control the guardians and know the basic weapons for the guardians." comments Ms. Faragonda.
"I have to learn how to do witchcraft?" asked a shocked Musa. At that moment, thoughts of her being a witch like those at Cloud Tower left a bad taste in her mouth.
"It has already been taking care of, after your Fairy classes, you will have Witchery and Weaponry classes. And yes, they are mandatory. Now head back to your dorm room." She promptly dismisses the girls from her office.
"Yes Ma'am," said the girls as they walked out of the room.
In The Hallway
"I have to take Witchery and Weaponry class after Fairy classes! That is triple the work I will ever do, man life is so unfair!" groaned Musa at the thought of all that work.
"Musa, do you think you will still be able to come to the beach?" poses Layla with her head at the threshold of her dorm room.
"I think...if I don't have too much homework." She responds to her question.
"Alright, everybody needs their beauty sleep, so let's hit the hay!" Stella was claiming while yawning. Everybody then headed to their respective rooms.
"You sure your going to be okay Musa?" asks Tecna. "If I can survive, I will tell you," Musa joked with Tecna while they headed to bed for sleep.
