Hey guys! Sorry for not updating in a while, I've been having some probs lately. The whole teenage love thing, family issues, school, a reviewer that got me down, and just plain old writers block. But yeah, here is chapter 9.

There is a reason why Musa keeps moping around, you'll find out here. It's not just her btw, the whole winx club is sad but since this is an MxR fic I just concentrated on Musa.

Cheekymonkey2106- seriously? Haha! I tried to be unpredictable ;P

Chapter 9: They got spelled

"Girls!" Miss Griselda knocked on the door, it was 12 in the afternoon and the Winx were due to see Miss Fergonda an hour ago.

The girls were inside their rooms, mourning. Something clicked after breakfast, something they thought they wouldn't feel even with the given situation. Each of them knew something deep inside of them felt alone and depress, but, of course, they tried to ignore it because the situation was only temporary.

Every since day 1 the Winx have, somehow, changed. Last week was full of excitement and adventure, but that wasn't enough for our favorite fairies. No indeed.

Inside Bloom and Flora's room were 3 girls who thought they could put up a strong face until the end, nothing should be too hard for just 1 week. But they were wrong, something snapped and they've completely lost the battle.

"Flora" Stella, who felt her aches-which was a rare thing- was seated next to the depress looking fairy, her hands clutching on to her skirt as her eyes were on the floor. "We'll see them tomorrow, don't worry."

She nodded but that didn't mean it convinced her, no, she was even more hurt knowing she had to wait 1 more day till she sees those blue eyes that only loved her.

"Stella's right" Bloom sighed with a half hearted smile, she had Kiko in her embrace and a photo in her grasp. "We should think positive, just one more day till get back here."

On the floor, since Flora banned little paws on the furniture, the pets were looking up at their mommies. Both the Rabbit and the Penguin were hurting as well, but the little cub had more important things to worry about. He saw something dangling from his behind, something he wanted to get. A not so average tail.

"GIRLS!"

Bloom got up from her bed and dragged her feet to where her loving Penguin was, she picked him up and looked over to the girls. "We better get going, Miss Griselda might break the door."

The two girls idly nodded and got their little ones from the floor, they were already motioning the girls to doll up and get a move on.

Now, in the room next the their's, 3 more fairies were sulking up the atmosphere. They didn't sleep at all, the virus spreading around, the so called boyfriend syndrome, got everyone up last night.

"This isn't possible at all" Tecna rubbed her heavy baggy eyes, despite sleeping pass her bed time, twice, she couldn't stop thinking on how everything that they were experiencing was even happening.

Layla nodded with her hands crossed and eyes closed, her body seated up right on Musa's bed with her little Bubu sleeping on the pillow all curled up like a cinnamon bun.

"Seriously!? You couldn't get me to look at a guy, much less make me think of one, but look at me now. Pathetic." she groaned and picked her legs up and wrapped her arms around them, Layla rested her chin on her knees and let out a deep sigh.

By the window was Musa, with her little puppy by her side, and her little blue diary. She had written a lot of things last night but soon realized that nothing will happen even if she finished the whole thing, he won't appear before her.

"You know what?" she stroked Muri's head with one finger but her concentration was on the clear blue sky. "I think the girls and I are too much in love." she sighed and glanced at her whimpering puppy.

Tickit, who was surprisingly not in Tecna's lap, jumped next to Muri with a frown on his face. He pushed Muri a bit and the little dog glared at him, he had to worry about a lot of things and this little kitten happened to have his own little world so he isn't any good for the team.

"Tec? Muse? Layla?" Bloom knocked on the door, her voice sounded a bit shaken up since she, and all the other girls, have been thinking rather than talking.
"Miss Griselda is just outside so we need to get a move on." Flora knocked as well, but you could hear scratches because of Patch.

Tecna got up and opened the door while Tickit ran towards her, the three frowned fairies looked at inside the room and saw that Musa and Layla were still in their current position; Musa sitting by the window while Layla laid down on Musa's bed.

"We've really-"
"GIRLS!" Miss Griselda yelled before Flora could finish her sentence, you could feel the dark aura around the dorm's door.
"That's our cue!" Stella ran inside the room and grabbed the two depressed fairies, she jolted out to the common room while the rest of the Winx followed.

Bloom, with enough courage, opened the door and greeted Miss Griselda with a smile and a wave. The elder woman raised her eyebrow with crossed arms and a tapping foot, the girls smiled and walked out the room without looking back; who knows what'll happen if they meet her gaze.

"You girls are lucky that Head Master Ferogonda had something to do so you aren't that late for your meeting, very lucky" Miss Griselda said in a preaching tone, the girls rolled their eyes with her words.

With their pets in their hands the girls entered the Head Master's office with bowed heads, obviously, the girls were in no mood to get out of their room and see the day without their mans anywhere.

"Good Afternoon girls" Miss Ferogonda greeted with her hands clasped together as she sat comfortably on her chair, knowing what was going on she had a hidden smirk under her face.
"What's so good about it?" Stella groaned and sat back, un-princess like, on the available chair in front of the Head Mistress.
Bloom elbowed Stella and gave her a glare, she furrowed her eyebrows and bit her lower lip. "Stella" she whispered next to the bored fairy.

Miss Ferogonda laughed a bit and gestured the girls to take their seats, Miss Griselda was standing beside the Head Master with her arms crossed and eyes locked on to Stella.

"I would like to inform you girls about the Specialists" she delightfully said with a cheery voice.

The girls exchanged looks and a smile appeared on their face, could it be? They all wondered, images of walks on the beach, dancing, clubbing, dinner dates, cuddling with the boys gave them the old spark that they had.

"Are they here?" Layla looked around, Nabu could turn invisible so he could've made the rest of the guys unseeable.
"Brandon! Come to me my honey!" Stella pushed her chair and stood up as she searched the room, she accidentally threw Tootsie to the ground.
"Girls, girls, please, calm down." Miss Ferogonda smiled and adjusted her glasses, she rested back on her seat and crossed her arms.
"They aren't here.." Tecna frowned and stroked Tickit's fur. "Aren't they?"

Stella looked back and scowled, she saw Tootsie on the ground shaking his head and scratching his little nose. She walked and picked him up, gave the little shocked bunny a quick hug and sat back down.

"I'm sorry, Stella" the Head Master gave out a concerned smile, she was doing this for their own good.

She nodded her head and glanced away, Tootsie hugged Stella's arm and that was good enough for her.

"Are the boys alright?" Flora was actually really worried, after their talk she couldn't stop thinking about the Oroic realm. It had different monsters and the plantation looked really dangerous.
"No worries, they're just fine." Miss Ferogonda nodded and assured them that the Specialists are well. She eyed the 6 little munchkins on the girls' laps.
"Then what is it you wanted to talk to us about?" Bloom placed Pingu down and let him wobble around, he was headed over to Musa.
"I just wanted to inform you girls that the Specialists' arrival might be delayed, we aren't sure when they're getting back" Miss Ferogonda stood up and walked to her huge window, she didn't want to see their faces once they let this sink in.

The girls froze for a second, all you could hear were the wobbles of Pingu. He was waving his little flippers around and under Musa's chair, Muri took notice of this and looked up at his mommy.

"What do you mean by that?" Musa gripped on Muri's uninjured paw a bit, the little fella couldn't decide if he should go to his friend or stay for with girl.
"They can't stay in the Oroic realm any longer, what if something bad happens?" Flora held on to Patch and gulped.
"Flora's right, can't Head Master Saladin do anything?" Layla clenched her fist as Nabu's face flashed through her head.
Miss Griselda stepped forward and coughed. "We are not sure if the boys will be back by tomorrow, their ship had some minor complications so they are currently trying to get everything fixed."
"Saladin's very confident with their skills, they have been studying the ship for a year." Miss Ferogonda voiced out.
"But the ship looked perfect when we had that talk." Tecna stood up and placed her hands on the table, her eyes were on the urge of tears. Tickit was on the floor, napping.
"And you got cut off right away.." Miss Griselda raised an eyebrow. "Because something happened to the inside of the ship."

Tecna sat back down and crossed her arms, her mouth in a pout while she crossed her legs. Stella, who was still entertaining Tootsie, didn't want to believe what their teachers were saying. The best heroes of Red Fountain, having engine trouble? Please.

"We just wanted to give you girls a heads up before tomorrow." Miss Ferogonda turned and walked to the table, she nodded at Miss Griselda and sat back down.
"That is all" Miss Griselda clapped her hands and nodded.

The girls stood up and walked out the room, they couldn't protest at all. Miss Ferogonda smiled and swung her fingers around, a bright glow that lasted for 3 seconds appeared as the girls were vanished from her sight.

"We weren't too hard on them, right?" Miss Ferogonda sighed and looked at Griselda.
"You've given them harder tests than this, I think both parties will succeed" Miss Griselda ensured her old friend.
"Yes.." Miss Ferogonda smiled. "But spelling them is quite too far"
"They seemed to manage" Miss Griselda walked to the door and closed it "Besides, the boys are their to keep an eye on them."

RIVEN POV

"Holy shit." I turned to Sky and Brandon, they had their mouths hung open.
"Did she just say, spell?" Sky shook his head and raised an eyebrow.
"I'm sure she did" Brandon nodded with his hand on his chin. "But what kind of spell?"

How stupid can we get? I growled and thought about it for a while, we only had a few more minutes to figure this out before the girls notices our disappearance. We somehow slipped away while they were moping to their room, even Helia and Nabu didn't notice us.

"Can we just.." Brandon pulled his ears down, he rolled his eyes and looked at eyes. "Layout what we have."

Sky and I exchanged looks and nodded, if we put our brains together we might end up having 1 functional intelect that'll work. Please let it work.

"So, we know the girls had detention last week but at the same time they were in Red Fountain." Sky stated out with his flippers crossed.
"And we also know that they were in our dorm, but the odd thing about this is that I saw Stella packing a guy's shirt." Brandon groaned, jealousy at its best.
"Plus, I found out that Musa and Crescendo have the same wound." I reminisced about the fresh wound on Crescendo and the healing one on Musa. "And that Musa took Cresendo's headphones."

A moment of silence as we thought hard about the shit we got ourselves in to, seriously, how much faith does our Head Master have in us? He wants us to find out about a mission that never clearly happened without our freaking common sense, he said something about.. Teamwork.

"Fuck!" I looked at the floor.
"What is it man?" Sky got closer and placed his little flipper on my back.
"We need to solve this as a team right?" I sat down and face palmed myself.
"And? Your point?" Brandon raised his eyebrow.
"What if we try it? Get those animals working, maybe we'll be able to crack this stupid mission and I'll be able to make out with my girl again!" I smiled, this was pure genius.
"Timmy, Helia, and Nabu don't have their minds anymore." Sky sighed and shook his head.
"Besides, Musa has you quarantined so your leg could heal up" Brandon poked my not so injured paw.
"I'll handle Musa, just get the guys in the common room later." I grinned and walked further in the hall, I was hearing footsteps.
"And why us that?" Sky followed with Brandon behind him.
"We'll be using our Animal instincts" I looked back at them.

Just in the nick of time, Musa, Stella, and Bloom happened to show up while we were walking.

"There you are!" Stella grabbed Brandon. "Don't you dare run off like that again! Don't make me dress you up in jeans!"

Brandon nodded as his face went pale, Stella had made him try to wear jeans last night and it did not end well.

"Are you okay? Those anything hurt?" Bloom picked Sky up and looked at his entire body, Sky was blushing since he felt so naked.

Musa knelt down in front of me and smiled, she patted my head and picked me up as well.

"You are more trouble than I thought" she giggled, at least she's not sad or anything.

The girls walked away from the door but Musa stopped on her track, I looked up to her and she her eyes were looking to her side. My ears began to twitch and I could some murmurs, looks like Musa was listening to it too.

"Griselda, please call Jaden again"
