The next time Sky came home, Diaspro was not angry at him since she had not spent the last month thinking about him and Bloom. Even though it was colder outside and the castle's were decorated for the holidays, it felt like it was summer again since her and Sky were back to their routine of secret meetings and other royal meetings.
"So how is your training going Prince Sky?" Diaspro's father asked at Christmas dinner.
"Fantastic! We are preparing for the day of the royals actually since that is only a couple months away! I am sure you will be attending?" Sky responded.
"Of course we will! Right in the box next to your parents!"
"It should be a great show. They are bringing in dragons this year!"
"I sure hope it is! We pay enough money to send both you and the squire to the school, you better be getting the best education possible!" Sky's father said.
"He has a name dad." Sky was always frustrated that his parents only referred to his best friend by "squire" when he never really thought of him in that way.
"No matter, I assume he will be there too just in case something goes wrong?" Sky's mother asked.
"Yes, he is in my squad. Nothing will go wrong though. My team is great and professor Saladin will step in if things get out of hand."
The rest of the meal everyone ate in quiet and then went into the parlor for dessert and entertainment. They were joined by other members of the royal guard, including Brandon.
Brandon Sat down next to Sky and began whispering something to him that Diaspro could not hear since she was sitting at a table close by. She watched the two as they talked and she noticed that Sky seemed a bit worried but she was sure it was probably nothing.
The holiday break went by very quickly and Diaspro was once again left with the horrible feeling of not seeing Sky for a long time. She was not sure when she would be able to see him again.
Once again Sky secretly met Diaspro on her balcony the night before he left and they made love again. It seemed like that was the only thing that they enjoyed doing with each other but Diaspro did not mind since he was so sexy and she knew that she would be married to him anyways. She just did not know when the next time they could be alone would be.
The next two months passed and Diaspro focused on her magical powers but still did not seem able to control her anger. Her instructor got frustrated and angry with her more often than not but she did not really care. When was she ever going to use her powers in fighting anyways? She was a princess not a warrior.
Soon she was in a transport on her way to Magix for the Day of the Royals with her parents to see Prince Sky and his team perform. She was excited to finally see if he was good with a sword, not that she thought he wasn't, she had just never seen him ever use one before.
"This ought to be an interesting day. Sky said there would be dragons! That must mean that their team of specialists is very good! I remember when I performed in the day of the Royals and how exciting it was. But we didn't have dragons in ours." Diaspro's dad said. He was ranting and reminiscing about his days at Red Fountain. Diaspro was not paying attention to him and just wanted to be able to be alone with Sky again.
"Diaspro! Sit up proper! Come on now, you are a princess not some vagabond!" Diaspro's mother said to her. Diaspro had been leaning back in her chair and against the window, staring at the trees going by. They were first stopping at Red Fountain to take a tour and then going downtown.
Diaspro sat up and continued to look out the window at the approaching school. She was tired of being told what to do but she had learned long ago to not defy her parents in order to avoid an argument.
"Welcome to Red Fountain!" The short white haired professor who walked with a cane said as the royal family stepped out of the hover bus.
"I hear you have dragons this year Saladin!" Diaspro's father said excitedly.
"Indeed we do! Would you like to see them before they are moved downtown?"
"That would be great!"
The family followed Saladin into the school and throughout it's corridors. Many young men passed and looked at Diaspro with a look of wonder. She often got this from men but not from so many people at once.
She did not even look at them if they did not have blond hair, she was searching for Sky. As they turned the next corner she finally spotted him walking alongside a short orange haired boy and an angry looking maroon haired boy. Their eye's met and she began to wave but he quickly looked away and kept walking.
Her parents did not seem to notice that their future son-in-law just walked past them without saying anything since they kept listening to Saladin and admiring the school. She could not believe he did not at least say hi to her. They were engaged and had already had sex multiple times, did that not qualify her for a simple hand gesture?
The rest of the day she was in a bad mood, unsure of as to why Sky did not acknowledge her in the hallway. As her family was walking to their box downtown a bright red haired girl bumped into her and Diaspro dropped her purse.
"Watch where you're going! The servants around here are terrible!" She snapped. She couldn't help it, she was still angry about Sky.
"You dropped somethi-" the girl began to say. Diaspro looked down and noticed that it was her holograph compact of Sky. She quickly picked it up and closed it at the same time. She then stowed it back into her purse and walked past the girl who had stood up and was standing in place, looking confused.
Almost immediately after they sat down, the same red headed girl came up to Diaspro and handed her a note that said teen fairy wanted an interview.
"Excuse me, Teen Fairy is requesting an interview and this servant is here to show me the way" Diaspro said as she requested leave from her parents and Sky's.
She followed the red headed girl but as soon as they got out of the viewing box and got into the hallway, the girl cast a spell making the other body guard pass out.
"What do you think you are doing?" Diaspro exclaimed in disbelief.
"I know what you are up to Icy! I'm not going to let you ruin the Day of the Royal or hurt Brandon!" The red headed girl then transformed into her winx form. Diaspro could not believe what was going on. She was randomly being attacked by the girl she ran into in the hallway.
"Who do you think you are talking to?"
The red headed girl then threw a flame ball at Diaspro.
"You crazy obsessive fan! What is your problem?"
"My problem is you Icy! I don't know what you are up to but I'm going to stop you for good this time!" The girl then threw another orange glowing energy ball at Diaspro. She dodged it and then decided to change into her winx as well.
"That's a good impression of a fairy Icy! You're not fooling me you witch!"
"WHAT! I am NOT a witch!" As she said this, Diaspro then used her jewel powers to throw an energy ball at the girl who evaded it. She then conjured a purple ring and levitated it towards the girl who's arms became stuck to her body.
"Although I can be witchy when needed!" Diaspro let out a chuckle. She was getting angry at this random person for attacking her when she was already emotional about her current situation with Sky. She was distracted by this thought and did not notice the girl break free.
"Leave Brandon alone!" The girl yelled and threw an even stronger energy ball. Diaspro was knocked back into the wall. This was the final straw for her.
"Crow jewel attack!" Diaspro yelled. Jewels formed around her in an oval and simultaneously fired energy balls at the red headed girl.
"Why would I want the squire! You can have him all to yourself!" Diaspro yelled. She was happy she was using her powers to their potential, but she also realized that she was only that powerful because of her anger.
The red head also seemed to be more powerful with her anger though too. She grew very angry at Diaspro's last attack and comment about Brandon and she started flying toward Diaspro with a huge energy ball.
The ball hit Diaspro in the chest and she fell into the wall. She slowly got up and started to attack the girl again. Next thing she knew, the two were outside above the ground in the arena in front of everyone, including Sky and his squad.
"You might as well give up Icy! I'm ending this now!" The girl yelled. She sent energy balls at Diaspro's jewels and destroyed all of them.
"Not my jewels!" Diaspro screamed. That was her most powerful attack and she was devastated it had just been destroyed. She was once again distracted and did not notice the next attack the girl sent. It hit her and she went flying to the ground.
"Diaspro!" Sky yelled as he ran over to her. The red headed girl came down to the ground and rushed over to Sky.
"Brandon! What are you doing? That's-" she started to say before Diaspro interrupted her.
"This is not Brandon! He is Prince Sky of Eraklyon!"
The girl looked crushed and disappointed as she sank to the ground.
"SQUIRE!" Sky's father bellowed over the crowd.
Brandon ran over to him and kneeled down.
"Yes your majesty."
"You were supposed to be providing security for our sun and his future bride! That is why we pay your tuition for this school! This is an embarrassment and a disgrace!" Sky's father yelled as he looked down upon Brandon.
"I am deeply sorry your majesty."
Sky's parents as well as Diaspro's walked out of the arena. As they did, Sky looked towards the red headed girl.
"Bloom! Let me explain! It's not what you think!"
"You don't have to explain anything to me" Bloom said through tears.
"Wait, this is the girl from earth? Why was she so eager to protect you?" Diaspro asked, realizing that her worst fears about Sky's relationship with her being true.
"We will talk about it later." Sky replied as he walked over to Bloom. Before he could reach her though, she was whisked away by a woman with gray hair. Diaspro recognized her as the headmistress of Alfea.
Bloom gave one last watery eyed look back at sky. She looked hurt and betrayed. This same look was starting to form on Diaspro's face. She was so confused and did not know what to do now. To her, it seemed like Sky was upset about that girl and for her to be that upset about him meant that she must have strong feelings for him.
