A/N: SORRYY! I didn't want to take such an eternity to upload, but school kept me busy. Actually I am busy right now, by translating 10 pages of absolutely boring text, but I decided to make time for you! But first things first: This chapter is pretty much awful and a total filler chapter, but right now I am working on chapter 13 and I will finish it tonight or tomorrow, I think. Idk how long exactly, since I try to put emotion into this (emphasis on try), and some details. I hate fanfictions where you stumble from one incident to the next one and things are described in 1 chapter, where I would need 4 to do it properly :D

But now, enjoy! :)

Bloom POV

„So, planned a payback," I asked laughing.

"Not exactly," Sky answered. "We were busy worrying about you sweetheart."
"Oh, believe him dahling, he was a total trainwreck," Stella stated smirking.

"Like you were in any better mood," he shot back.

"Want a fight," Stella asked challenging as she took a pillow and threw it at his face. After just about five minutes of the pillow fight I was totally exhausted, so I let myself fall down on the bed and I realized that I didn't even know the room we were in.

"Sorry to interrupt you, but where are we anyway?"
They stopped their fight in midair and turned to face me.
"I took you to Eraklyon when the witches attacked."
"Oh. Can we go back please? I want to talk to Miss Faragonda."
"Of course," Stella exclaimed. "Come on shnookums!"
"I don't think so Stella. Shnookums and I have to clean up here," Sky told her laughing.

"Bloom! What a wonderful surprise, but shouldn't you rest?"
"I'm fine Miss Faragonda, thank you. I came to ask you something. The last time I had a virus like that it didn't vanish completely, so I am worried that it might happen again and-"
"I understand your anxiety Bloom, bet there is nothing to worry about. You have no idea of how powerful Believix fairies are, but I am sure that you'll be one of them soon."
"That's not my biggest problem right now. You know, I think the Trix could attack soon, since they think I am still...well...unable to fight. My powers aren't fully regenerated yet and they have grown so strong..."
"We will think about that when the time's right. Now you should concentrate on recovering. I'll ask Griselda to bring you some tea and food later."
"Thank you Miss Faragonda."
I closed the door behind me and stumbled into my room. Miss Faragonda was right. Obviously. I couldn't even walk properly, let alone run, fly or fight.

As I opened the door eight heads turned in my direction.

"Oh my, Bloom dahling! You look horrible! Let me help you," Stella exclaimed. She stood up and laid one arm around my waist and one around my shoulder to support my weight.

"You know you really should rest. You just left what we feared would be your death bed."
"Flora's right. Your energy is about 12.8 percent right now," Tecna added.

I looked out of the window. It was winter. Or at least it was on earth, because in Magix the flowers bloomed as always and the trees still had all their leaves.

Stella led me into the bedroom Flora and I shared and just let go as I sat down on my bed. I laid down and pulled the blanket over my body, ready to sleep through the next three days.

Stella was looking at me worriedly. She cared and obviously tried to protect me, because she jumped and placed herself protectively in front of me when we heard a noise.

She relaxed when she saw Sky and Brandon walking out of the portal.

They walked out of the room as Sky nodded into the door's direction.

He sat down beside me, stroke my bangs out of me wet face and took my hand.

"How do you feel?"

"Like a bus ran over me, just when I walked out of a burning house, where a dog attacked me."

I smiled weakly.

"Oh. Can I do something to help you?"

"It really isn't your fault Sky. Sooner or later I would have fought them anyway and they would have infected me with that virus."

"I know, but I feel pretty guilty."

"You shouldn't."

"Don't worry 'bout me, I'll be fine!"

"I know you'll be! You always are, but I still worry about you."

He stroked my face as he looked at me sadly.

"Can you promise me something?"

I nodded slowly.

"Don't think about fighting when the witches attack again! Not if you haven't rested enough. And you know what I mean by enough."
"I can't promise you that I won't think about it, but I promise that I'll do my best to keep out of the fight."

I sat up and stroke his lips with mine, but he grabbed my shoulders and hugged me tightly.

"You can't imagine the weight that was lifted from my heart when I saw your beautiful eyes again.," he whispered.

I was so touched that my eyes watered and a single tear rolled down my cheek. He wiped it away with his one hand while the other one took my face and pressed his lips on mine.

His kiss was hard and demanding, yet soft and loving. He was very careful not to hurt me though.

He pulled me onto his lap and I grabbed his hair while he stroke my back.

It was the most amazing kiss we've ever shared.

After we broke away I rested my head on his chest and sighed heavily.

"I love you," I told him sincerely.

"Love you more sweetheart! But get some sleep now."
"I miss you already, although I am pretty sure that you'll be in my dreams."
He smiled and walked out of the room, so I laid down again and fell asleep soon.

I looked through a small door and saw all of my friends. They were talking to each other, but wait. Why did they wear suits and ball gowns.

I looked down at myself and noticed that I also wore a blue dress.

I walked through the door, but froze as soon as I'd passed it, because someone had called my name.

"Bloom, the princess of Sparx," the voice said again and everyone turned to face me. I blushed immediately.

"Don't blush honey, you look beautiful."
Honey? Stella! But Stella would say something like absolutely gorgeous. I turned to look at the one who had been complimenting me.

"Mom," I squeaked as I saw the faces of Mike and Vanessa, my earth parents.

"Hi Bloom. I have to agree with your mother," Mike told me. "You look absolutely gorgeous!"
I laughed at his choice of words and confused him.

"You are a great princess, Bloom, we are so proud of you, but I think your prince is waiting," Vanessa teased me smiling. And she was right.

A pair of deep blue eyes watched me when I turned around. I ran towards him and he spun me around like in the movies.

"Oritel and Mariam, King and Queen of Sparx," the voice called out.

Oritel and Mariam? My real parents were here? This was amazing, but how did they free themselves. I stared at the door buzzing with excitement. I would finally meet my real parents, which I dreamed of ever since I found out that Mike and Vanessa weren't my real parents. I just blinked once, but even that one blink was too much.

I didn't see the room anymore, but I stared at a blue ceiling.

The blue ceiling of my room in Alfea. I sat up rubbing my eyes and saw Flora standing in the door with some food.

"Oh I am so sorry Bloom. I didn't wanna wake you!"
"No problem Flora. How late is it?"
"It's 7 pm. You slept through dinner, so I decided to bring you some food."
"Thanks. I am pretty hungry." She laughed a little and sat down beneath my feet.

After my dinner I felt much better. I felt pretty energetic to be precise.

Something was wrong. I knew that when I saw the way Flora was biting her lip.

"What are you hiding Flora," I asked her simply.
"Well, I shouldn't tell you, but I feel bad not to. Faragonda thinks the witches are going to attack soon. Just look at the Sky."
The sky was nearly black, the way it hadn't been for a very long time.
"But please let us handle this. You shouldn't waste your powers," Flora begged me.

I sighed. She was right. My magical powers weren't fully recovered yet. I wouldn't stand a long fight, because my powers would probably run out soon, but I couldn't just leave them alone either.

"We'll see how it all turns out," I stated and Flora looked at me worriedly, but she realized that it made no sense trying to convince me to hide, so she just left.

I stayed in my bed staring at the ceiling. My powers were strong already, but they wouldn't last long. At some point I fell asleep and I woke up with a very loud scream.

Well, I hope you liked it and you are looking forward to the next chapter. I can tell you, the next chapter surely isn't my speciality, so please don't expect too much :)

Well, see you soon
