Ranma just stared at the school, he wasn't so sure on the colour but he could deal with that, if he could get in that is, but he had to admit this place was the most beautiful place he'd ever seen, Bloom's astral form appeared beside him.

'It's okay to be nervous Ranma…but don't worry they'll accept you' Bloom said in a comforting tone.

'How can you be so sure?...the minute they find out I'm a guy everyone there will hate me and I'll be kicked out and that's the best case scenario' Ranma replied, his eyes dilating and becoming less focussed on the world around him, images of Bloom's friends and the rest of Alfea rejecting him and attacking him with everything they've got.

'No Ranma don't even think of it, you underestimate my friends, besides I'll protect you from any and all magic attacks' Bloom comforted.

'I can handle been attacked, I've been attacked all my life…but how am I going to actually get accepted and enrolled into the schools?' Ranma asked, hoping Bloom would have some advice since she got into the school without anyone knowing who she was the first time, even if she only managed to keep who she was secret for one day.

'Your curse' came Bloom's simple reply.

'WHAT!?' Ranma practically screamed, Bloom winced slightly at his loud tone was.

'It's our best chance of getting in and keeping my existence quiet Ranma' Bloom replied.

'Why would you want to keep yourself a secret?' Ranma asked, his eyebrows furrowing.

'You want a new life and if everyone knew I was back they wouldn't want to get know you but would prefer to see their old friend once again, besides I lived my life, I'm dead, I shouldn't be even here and there's no way I'm taking away your chance at a new better life' Bloom replied, her words brought a tear to Ranma's eyes, he had no idea what the warm feeling within him was, the last time he felt this was when Akane offered to be her friend only now it was stronger.

"Thank you" Ranma said aloud, his voice barley a whisper and slightly shaken.

'Don't thank me Ranma…now we're gonna have to make sure you're in your cursed form when we arrive, I'll grant you access to some of my power, after all we can't risk them making the link between your power and mine especially when you're a freshman' Bloom briefly explained.

'Okay' Ranma agreed, Bloom proceeded to snap her fingers, a bucket of cold water appeared over Ranma's head and fell a top of it, triggering his curse, Ranma slowly rose her arms and gripped the bucket on either side and slowly lifted it off her head before tossing it aside, Bloom snapped her fingers once again and Ranma found herself no longer wet but dry and no one would guess she was ever wet.

'Okay now we just need a few minor changes to your attire' Bloom muttered.

"Wait! What?" Ranma asked aloud almost frantic.

'Those clothes don't really fit this body very well, I'm just going to adjust it so you appear less like a boy and make them less suspicious when you turn up, with nothing and with the worst life story imaginable' Bloom explained briefly.

'Okay I guess' Ranma replied, her mental voice small, shy and embarrassed, her cheeks turning slightly red.

Bloom gave her a small smile and a slight nod, she snapped her fingers once again and Ranma's baggy Kung Fu pants slid up a little to fit her shorter legs, became tighter, almost like a second skin, her crimson silk to top shortened, exposing her mid riff, custom fitting to her assets, Ranma blushed when she felt her boxers shrink until they became a pair of silk panties and a bra formed over her breasts, the string that tied her hair into a braid vanished and her hair fell loose and wild, her shoes morphed into open toe high heels.

(A/N This takes place after Ranma no longer needed the Dragon Whisker)

Ranma looked down at her new attire and her blush deepened, her face turning full on crimson, Bloom giggled at seeing Ranma's blush, it was so cute, Ranma's blush deepened when she caught her reflection in a nearby stream, she hated the fact that she looked good in this 'new' attire and that 'that' was an understatement.

'Are you ready to begin your new life?' Bloom asked as she placed a comforting hand on Ranma's shoulder, even if it wasn't physical Ranma could feel it and it did help.

'…I guess' Ranma replied hesitantly as she began to head in the direction of the school, Bloom slipped back inside Ranma's body, hid herself in his mind, placing limiters about so she didn't seem too powerful and to decrease the chance of her been found out, while implanting a couple ideas to help Ranma get accepted.

Alfea…

Ranma approached the entrance to the school campus she could see Alfea students walking about, speaking with friends, dealing with their daily life, some sat upon the fountain, others on their phones, but even with so much going on in their lives it seemed peaceful, something Ranma had never known, Ranma just wished that the peace would last even with her there.

Ranma entered the campus and headed for the entrance of the building, accessing Bloom's memories of the layout of the school and headed straight for Miss Faragonda's office so 'she' could be enrolled.

Miss Faragonda's Office…

Ranma found the door to the headmistresses office and lightly knocked on the door and heard the headmistress call her in, she pushed open the doors, closing them the minute she entered and respectfully bowed to the headmistress.

"I'm sorry but who are you?" Faragonda asked.

"My name is Ranma Saotome" Ranma introduced, remembering that here people introduced with their first names first instead of their family names.

"Hello Ranma I am the headmistress of this school, Miss Faragonda" Faragonda introduced.

"Nice to meet you" Ranma greeted with an inward smirk, since she knew Faragonda inside and out.

"Likewise, I was wondering if you had any openings here?" Ranma admitted.

"Well…we do have one place…but wouldn't you rather enrol in the next year, we're already more than half way through this one?" Faragonda asked as she raised an eyebrow.

"No, I'm looking for a fresh start and this place came highly recommended and there's not a chance in hell I'm going back, if I've missed some of the material I know I'll catch up" Ranma replied, seeing it as a challenge, also the fact Bloom had studied all this already didn't hurt either.

"Well if you're sure, I know a couple students who might be able to help you catch up, but that's up to them, but there's something else you see the only reason there's a place open is due to the fact…one of our third years died not too long ago and if you decide to come her here you'd have to take share the room she had for the rest of the year" Faragonda explained.

Ranma froze, she knew what this meant, it meant she'd be staying with the Winx, she began to become more worried than she had previously been and became more nervous as it felt more like she was taking Bloom's life instead of starting a new life.

"Is that okay with you?" Faragonda asked.

"Y…Yeah I guess" Ranma admitted.

"Okay, let me just check your grades" Faragonda stated as she conjured a blue orb, the orb slowly turned red as Faragonda muttered a spell, her expression became one of confusion.

"Odd according to this you don't exist, no schools, no grades, no family nothing" Faragonda stated, her spell should have shown her every little thing about Ranma, it had looked her up on every planet except Earth.

"I'm from Earth" Ranma admitted, averting her gaze, Faragonda froze, her eyes widening, her gaze slowly returned to Ranma.

"Earth?" Faragonda asked slowly, Ranma shyly nodded, refusing to look her in the eyes, "Well that would explain why I can't find anything about you, I assume you've never been taught about magic?" Faragonda asked.

"Yeah" Ranma whispered, her gaze returning to Faragonda.

"Okay, I'll just need to create a file for you, but could you tell me, how did you come to find out about Alfea?" Faragonda asked.

Ranma froze once again, she had no idea how to answer this question when she heard Bloom's voice whispering inside her head.

'Tell her it was me, I told you about Alfea, that we met over the summer two years ago and take it from there' Bloom stated, seeing that Ranma obviously needed some help. Ranma's eyes dilated and Faragonda noticed this as she sipped her tea, growing concerned.

"A girl told me about this place, two years ago during summer, her name was Bloom" Ranma explained, Faragonda's eyes widened and her tea went down the wrong pipe and she went into a coughing fit and her gaze rose back to Ranma.

"You knew Bloom?" Faragonda wheezed out.

"Yeah she and her adoptive parents were on holiday in Japan, I was on a training trip at the time, we became friends quickly…I guess she sensed the power within me and told me all about Alfea, she became sort of like an older sister of sorts…my pop dragged me away and he found out about her, he punished me for it and we left the area, I haven't seen her since…then a couple nights ago I started having nightmares of her death and her telling me to come here…so I came…there was nothing keeping me on Earth so why not" Ranma explained, making it up as she went along.

Faragonda averted her gaze, she had taken the loss of Bloom's life pretty hard and now someone else that was touched by Bloom and was a part of her past and there was no way she was going to cast her out, little did she know Ranma wasn't just touched by Bloom but was also all that was left of Bloom.

"I see…I'm sorry but…Bloom passed away…not so long ago" Faragonda explained softly, her voice on the verge of breaking even though she tried to hide it and was very good at it, Bloom could hear it, feel it and even Ranma had slightly picked up on it.

"I know…I felt it…it was one of the main reasons I decided to come here so I could be closer to her" Ranma explained briefly, averting her gaze.

"I see…well…welcome to Alfea Ranma, this is the dorm you'll be staying in" Faragonda said as she handed Ranma a slip of paper detailing which dorm she was in and where it was, even though Ranma wouldn't need it, not that she knew that, Ranma took the slip and bowed her head.

"Thank you" Ranma whispered before rising to her feet and taking her leave, leaving the headmistress alone once again.
