Chapter Two
The Strangest Combination
"Good afternoon, everyone, I am Miss. Faragonda. I bid you all a warm and hearty welcome to our fairy school. People say that we are the best in Magix; but then again, we are the only fairy school in Magix," She laughs slightly. "Now enough standing outside, come on in and make yourselves at home," Miss. Faragonda says leading the group of freshmen inside to Alfea's main building.
Exclamations of wonder are heard as everyone walk inside. I would too, but I've been wondering around for the past week familiarizing myself with the layout of the school. The first thing you see when walking inside is a big staircase leading to a big statue of a fairy and several stained glass windows, along with hallways that lead to both dorms and classrooms. There are two large corridors on the floor where the stairs start. One leads to the Cafeteria and other school stores, and the other one leads to the library and the gym.
"Alfea provides the best training to help you become great fairies. Of course it won't be an easy road ahead, but we teachers are always close by, right here with you. But you must never forget one thing; you can only go so far in life before you need some help. Now before I dismiss everyone I have two quick announcements, the first is I will be retiring this year." Miss. Faragonda says and a young woman, with pale freckled skin, short red hair in a bob style with a streak of purple, and gray eyes. She is dressed in a dark red jacket, a white blouse, and a dark red pencil skirt.
"Hello my name is Miss. Mirta I will be replacing Miss. Faragonda at the end of the year," Miss. Mirta explains introducing herself.
"I will be training her to follow in my foot steps as the year progresses. Now for the second announcement. Over the summer break A Wizzarding school was built here in Magix it is called Oironin. If you are to ever run into these students or any of the other schools students I hope you show them respect." Miss. Faragonda ends the introductory speech and dismissing us all to find our dorm rooms.
'I already know mine so guess I'll just head back and wait for my roommates to arrive,' I think to myself while running a hand through my milk chocolate colored hair. I was kind of surprised when I arrived a week ago, that my stuff was already set up in my dorm room for me. I guess I thought it would be better to arrange everything before I woke up with nearly no memories at all. It helped me out in the end, to learn things about myself. Like the fact that my favorite color is purple and I prefer Pop music. I also seem to enjoy floral scented lotions and perfumes. Also that I wasn't a book reader but rather a movie watcher and unless I wasn't allowed to keep it, I didn't keep a diary.
Arriving at my dorm room, I open the door. The dorm rooms are pretty nice as well as being very big and spacious. When you open the door you see a big living room-like area, 4 smaller doors and a big stained glass door that leads to a balcony which is facing the school courtyard. The first door on the left wall leads to a luxurious bathroom, the other a bedroom big enough for two students. That was the room I claimed by taking the bed on the right. The two doors on the right wall lead to bedrooms like mine. In the living room there is a couch and a HD-TV, I go and take a seat and turn the TV on, flipping through the music channels. I'm not sure what my favorite song use to be but this song playing now, 'Animals', I think, is the name of it is rather good. I like the beat to it, so this might become my new favorite.
"Hi," a voice says causing me to look up. A girl with fair skin, bright blue eyes and long blonde curly hair which is pulled back with a black headband with a red rose on it is standing just inside the doorway. She is dressed in a pink V-neck crop top with a silver key decorating it, faded blue jeans caprices, and pink sandals. She was pulling a pair of matching, white with navey heart decorations suitcases.
"Hello. I'm Anastasia. It's nice to meet you," I say, getting up and walking over to her. I offer her a hand.
"Nice to meet you Anastasia, I'm Princess Astra of Solaria." She sets down one of the suitcases and shakes my hand.
"Oh... Wow. Nice to meet you, your Highness. Would you like some help with that?" I offer her pointing to the suitcase she had set down.
"No need to be formal. Several Princesses attend here, so thanks, but I got this." She says with a smile and snaps the fingers of her free hand. The suitcases are covered with a silver glow and levitate around her. She walks to the doors to find her name. Turns out that she is my roommate as she open the door and let her bags fly in.
"Hey, is this your room?" Astra asks me.
"Yeah. Looks like we are room mates," I smile.
"Um... Hello?" A small voice says from behind me. I turn around and see another girl. She is rather tanned and has a lot of freckles dotting her nose and arms, green eyes, and caramel brown hair that is up in a loose bun with a few stay stands hanging down along with her bangs. She is dressed in a fuchsia t-shit with a single teal stripe on it that was under a pair of white overalls with loose straps, and a pair of fuchsia tennis shoes. She is holding a single teal suitcase and a black backpack is on her shoulders.
"Hiya!" Astra says, coming back out from our room and walks up to the new girl. "My name is Astra and this here is Anastasia." She puts an arm around my shoulders.
"I'm Raine. It's nice to meet you," Raine says in a quiet tone.
"It's nice to meet you too," I tell her with a smile. "Your room should be on the right. Astra and I have the room on the left."
"Okay," She says and walks over to the right, walking into the first door.
"Well, are you going to guard the doorway all day, or let people in?" A new voice asks, sounding a bit irritable. I take a few steps back and drags Astra along with me. The irritable girl enters the room without another word. She has light tan skin, dark brown eyes, and short thin black hair that looked like it had a bit of a red tint to it. Most of it hung in her eyes, but some of it was pulled back by a gold beret. She is wearing a red long sleeved crop top with a circle neckline, a black pleated mini skirt, red leggings, and a pair of black heels.
"Hm... I think I know her." Astra lets go of me and follows the irritable girl into the second door on the right.
"Hey, are you Princess Vesta? Daughter of Bloom and the sister of Vanessa?" Astra asks her loud enough to where I can hear. A bit curious, I go over to the door to listen.
"Yes, and aren't you the youngest daughter of Stella? If you are doesn't that make you her 'Problem Child'," She answers Astra air quoting the words problem and child.
"Yeah, but the same can be said about you, Miss. 'I-hate-my-mary-sue-of-a-mother-and-my-perfect-sister'," Astra says in a sarcastic tone and rolls her eyes.
"Do you two know each other?" I ask Astra.
"Not really. Both of our mothers were members of the Winx Club. Even though they are still pretty close, they never really forced their kids to hang out. I've met some of the other children like Vesta here at an occasional party or two." Astra explains
"Oh..." I say. 'This can't be good I know nothing about the Winx and Astra is talking about them like they are the very important and that everyone should know about them.' I leave the two alone to bicker some more. I turn around and notice that Raine is talking to another girl who has shown up. This girl has long, pale blue hair with darker blue highlights and tips, ice blue eyes, and very pale skin. She is dressed in a collared crop top tank top that is in a white color and has a blue snowflake in the middle. She wears dark blue skinny jeans, white tennis shoes, and a silver charm bracelet is on her wrist. Just as I am about to say 'Hello', another girl walks in.
"Hello everyone. My name is Alisa." She announces rather loudly and in a very cheerful tone. She accidentally startles the blue haired girl, whose back facing is towards the doorway. The girl named Alisa is rather tall, has tan skin, green eyes, and wild light brown hair. She is clothed in a hunter green tank top, a gray short sleeved jacket, ripped up, dark blue jeans, black Convers shoes, and she has a leather bracelet on her wrist.
"Oops. Sorry about that." Alisa says and gently pats the blue haired girls back.
"Oh no, it is all right. I'm Ivory." The girl offers her hand which Alisa shakes.
"Nice to meet ya." Alsia says with a smile.
"I'm Anastasia. The blonde is Astra and the one with short hair is Vesta," I say motioning to the girls behind me that had finally stopped arguing, but they were still glaring at one another.
"I'm Raine," Raine says to Alisa offering a small smile.
"Well now that everyone is here why don't we take a bus to Red Fountain and watch some of the guys practice?" Astra suggests cheerfuly.
"We can't leave school grounds on the first day, Astra," I say, scolding her a bit. "And besides some people still need to unpack and settle in," I motion towards the two new girls who showed up.
"It was a joke anyway," she says crossing her arms and sits down in a nearby chair.
Ivory and Alisa walk off to find the rooms they will be staying in. Alisa is rooming with Raine and Ivory got the other bed in Vesta's room.
"Alright, so what is exactly the deal between you two?" I ask the two who had just been bickering and trading insults not to long ago.
"It was nothing really. I said something that upset her, and she just did the same to me. Right Vesta?" Astra shrugs her shoulders as if it was no big deal.
"Just because you are over it doesn't mean that I am," Vesta walks back to her room to finish unpacking. I let out a sigh, and walk over to the TV, turnning up the volume up a bit to enjoy some more pop music. Three or four songs later, Astra speaks up.
"You know we all said our names but we don't know where everyone is from or what their powers are."
"You're right, let's get everyone in here and talk," I turn off the TV and get up. I knock on Alisa's and Raine's door, and after hearing a muffled 'Enter' I open the door.
"Hey, why don't you two come out? We should all try to talk and get to know one another better before dinner." I say to them.
"Sounds good to me. You comin' Raine?" Alisa asks getting up and walking to the door.
"Yeah." Raine replies, following.
When I turn away from their door, I see that Astra has gone to Vesta's and Ivory's room to ask them.
"Just get out here and stop being a stuck up anti-social!" I hear Astra yell just before she walks out of the room with a still irritable Vesta and a scared Ivory.
We all sit down in various chairs around a small table.
"Alright. So who is first?" Astra asks.
"Just to get this over with. I'm Vesta, princess of Eraklyon, daughter of Queen Bloom and King Sky, younger sibling of princess Vanessa. I am the fairy of the Poison Flame," Vesta says. "Anything else?"
"Isn't Vanessa an upcoming model in Magix? Also will this be her third year winning Miss Magix, if she enters again?" Ivory asks.
"Yes and yes," Vesta says through gritted teeth.
"And isn't your mother the leader of the imfamous Winx Club?" Ivory asks curiously, obviously not paying attention to the fact that Vesta was getting upset by the topic.
"Yes," Vesta answers, this time almost yelling.
"Sorry." Ivory looks down at her hands.
"Don't sweat it Ivory. Vesta just doesn't like living in her mother's and sister's shadows, so she doesn't like talking about them and their 'Perfect' everything," Astra explains air quoting perfect and gains a sinister glare from Vesta.
"What? If I didn't go ahead and explain it someone would have said something else about them, and in the process making you really mad and blowing your top," Astra tells Vesta returning her glare.
"Whatever." Vesta says and surprisingly sticks around even though she had started playing a game on her phone.
"Well I guess I'll be next. My name is Astra and I am the princess of Solaria. I am the Fairy of the Moon and Night. My mother is Queen Stella and my dad is King Brandon. I also have an older brother named Kiran and sister named Chloe," Astra says.
"Kiran just became the crowned Prince of Solaria over the summer, and right before that, my sister Chloe became the Nymph of Solaria," Astra finishes up her introduction.
"Wow your sister really became a Nypth! I thought it was almost impossible for that to happen anymore," Raine says, speaking up.
"Yeah, but she got help from Queen Daphne of Domino to help her out," Astra explains.
"Oh... Well that was nice of her." Raine replies. "Well, I'm Raine of Linphea, I am the Fairy of Lillies. My mom died when I was young, so I don't know a lot about her. I live with my father and brother Jhon, who is in his second year at Red Fountain," Raine tells everyone.
"Sorry for your loss." Ivory says with a sympathetic look.
"Thanks but I was too young to really know her, so it doesn't really bother me." Raine offers Ivory a small smile.
"Um... I'm Ivory, the fairy of Ice and Snow. I am also the princess of Whisperia." Ivory speaks in such a soft tone that we can barely hear her.
"You're from a Witch realm?" Vesta asks, now seemingly curious about her new roommate.
"Yes," Ivory looks down to avoid eye contact.
"So, the princess of the biggest Witch realm in all of Magix is here at one of the best Fairy schools?" Vesta asks. Ivory keeps silent but nods her head yes. "So are you like a total reject on your realm or something? Or is this some kind of joke?" Vesta says laughs.
"Vesta you shouldn't say stuff like that." Astra scolds the other girl.
"What?" Ivory asks, speaking up for herself. "It's not a joke. The Witches Counsel never liked the idea of me going here, but my mother has always supported me in this decision. This is what I want. No one is forcing me to do this, it isn't a joke or anything like that."
"Hey, it's okay Girlie." Alisa puts a hand onto Ivory's shoulder to show her support.
"Yeah. Don't sweat it, Vesta just..."Astra tries to cheer Ivory up, "well I don't know how to word it right, but don't let what she says bother you. It'll be fine. I, for one, think it is pretty cool that you want to be a Fairy."
"Well sorry for not knowing that the Witch has feelings." Vesta drawls.
"I'm here to become a Fairy." Ivory's voice starts cracking as tears pill from her eyes. "I am not a Witch."
"Whatever," Vesta says getting up from her seat and walks back into her room closing the door behind her.
"Not to be rude, but good riddance." Alisa speaks after the door closes. "Well, Girlie, besides her, we are fine with you and are glad to have ya, right?" Alisa asks everyone and is answered with three different responses, all agreeing.
"Thank you, hearing that means alot." Ivory offers a small smile and wipes a few tears away.
"Hey, we are here to help if you need it. Don't let anyone upset you though. You have as much a right to attend this school as everyone else," I tell her.
"So, with that out of the way, I am Alisa and I am from Earth. And I am the Fairy of Wolves, and I am an only child. I live with both my mother and father," Alisa's tone is formal as she introduces herslef.
"Are you related to Queen Roxy?" Astra asks, connecting the power of the Fairy before her and said Fairies home planet.
"No, but she has been a mentor to me, because f how similar our powers are, and the fact that none of my alive family members has powers. My Grandmother was a Fairy, but she passed away before I was born, and for some reason my mother never got the magical genes. Dad's side of the family didn't have any magical heritage," Alisa says with a shrug of her shoulders.
"Wow. That's pretty cool; getting to have a Queen to be your mentor," I tell her. 'I don't have anything interesting to say to them. I could probably tell them that I live with my mother, but besides that, I have nothing else about myself to tell them.' I think to myself. 'I don't want to seem rude and not tell them anything special about myself.'
"Yeah, but it was only for a year or two after my powers first appeared,"Alisa finishes up, before she turns to me. "So what about you, Girlie?"
"Yeah, what's your story?" Astra asks.
"Um... Well, my name is Anastasia and I am from Melody of the Harmonic Realm. I am the Fairy of Sound, and I live with my mother," I tell them.
"You seem to be the most simplistic one of us all," Astra comments.
"Yeah. Guess so. I kind of feel bad that I don't have anything special to share with ya'll," I explain to them.
