All throughout Avalon's class, Flora was listening to Avalon's lectures, taking notes, but during the class, Flora got a spark and idea. Flora started a new page in her journal and started writing. Avalon didn't notice because it just looked like she was still taking notes from him speaking.

After class, Flora ran up to the girls with a huge smile on her face.

"Hey girls" Flora said happily put her arms on Bloom and Stella's shoulders.

"Well, look who's in a good mood" Musa said with a smile.

"Yes I am, and guess how?" Flora asked.

"By yelling at Helia and venting you feelings" Layla answered jokingly.

"No, well apart from that, I have written, a brand new song for the next round" Flora said with pride.

"Ooh, let me see" Musa said taking the sheet music from Flora's hand.

"Well?" Bloom asked.

"This is good, really good" Musa answered as the other girls looked over her shoulder to see it.

"This might get us into the semi-finals" Stella agreed.

"I hope so, there is just one little thing" Flora said.

"What?" Tecna asked.

"I need someone to play a grand piano, violins and cellos" Flora said innocently.

"You have got to be kidding" Stella said annoyed.

"No, we can work around this" Tecna began. "Look, I can play grand piano, no biggy"

"Right, and I can conjure up violins and cellos and use my powers to make them play" Musa said proudly.

"How are you going to do that?" Bloom asked.

"I'm the fairy of music, anything is possible, but I do need someone else to help me play the cellos" Musa announced.

"Ok, I can help" Stella volunteered.

"Awesome, ok, I'll conjure both instruments but only play the violins and Stella, you'll play the cellos" Musa instructed.

"Ok, let's hope my magic will make it work" Stella said a little nervous.

"Great, now Layla there are drums needed in this song too, and Bloom, I need you to play the acoustic guitar in this one, but it's very faint, only noticed in the chorus, is that alright?" Flora delegated.

"Sure, no problem" Bloom answered.

"Alright, let's get rehearsing" Flora said and she dragged the girls back to the dorm.

Tecna conjured up a piano and began practicing how to play it. Musa used her magic to conjure up what looked to be like an orchestra set up but without the chairs and stands. Musa and Stella then began playing instruments with their magic.

Layla and Bloom began rehearsing their parts with Flora.

The girls practiced all weekend. They practiced every free time that they had, except Flora, she spent most of her free time that week getting her grades up for Wizgiz's class.

Between rehearsing and school work, Stella and Flora worked on the clothes for the performance. Because of the melody and style of the song, the girls all decided that they all should wear formal looking clothes.

A week later, the contest came around and the girls were all excited. The boys were in the second row from the front in the auditorium. All the girls were back stage waiting for their turn and Tecna was talking to the people in charge of the lighting.

"Ok," Tecna said when she returned back stage. "I've spoken to the technicians, and they are aware of the lighting for our performance. A single spot light on the piano and orchestra up until Flora starts singing."

"Perfect. And may I might add, I love the dresses" Flora said complementing Stella.

"I agree" Musa agreed.

"Well thank you darlings, I do what I can" Stella said with pride.

Tecna was wearing a light purple flutter short sleeved top with an elbow length leather jacket and wore a black hammered poly bow waist skirt with a lace belt. She wore black strappy high heels with a petite camellia and heart charm necklet and a three strand heart stretch bracelet.

Musa wore a silver one shoulder draped front spliced jersey top with black skinny leg jeans with black pump shoes. Musa's hair was worn down but was slightly curled at the ends.

Flora wore a gold metallic lace long singlet top with a strip of white material under the bust, knee length white leggings and silver high heels. Her hair was long and flowing and she wore a pearl bracelet and earrings.

Stella wore a royal blue layered front frill singlet top with black skinny leg jeans with black open toe ankle boots. Her hair was long and flowing as she wore a dark blue ring on her right hand with blue stone earrings.

Bloom wore long black leggings with a sleeveless dress with a twist bow at the centre front, a shirred waist and pleated skirt. She also wore black high heels over the leggings.

Layla wore black and white short sleeved stripe woven flutter sleeve tee with a black ribbed collar jacket. She wore black work looking cloth pants with an interlinked chain belt. Layla also wore a graphic mountain print scarf and a mini crystal on chain necklet to accessorise. Her hair was worn down and curled.

"Ladies and gentlemen, for our last act of the night, please welcome 'The Winx Club'" Palladium introduced as the audience cheered.

The girls all smiled when they heard their name. The stage went black as the girls got to their positions and Musa and Stella conjured the orchestra.

A single spot light hit Tecna and the piano, and Musa, Stella and the orchestra. As the cheering died down, Tecna started playing the piano. Musa and Stella soon joined in with the orchestra. After a minute of music introduction, Flora started singing, a solo song, with Layla and Bloom coming in when she started singing.

Heroes and Thieves by Vanessa Carlton

Well, disaster it strikes on a daily basis
And I'm looking for wisdom in all the wrong places
But still wanna laugh in disappointed faces
And you can't help me
I'm blinded by these

Heroes and Thieves at my door
And I can't seem to tell them apart anymore
Just when I figured it out
Darling it's you I'm without

[Mini piano solo]

Well I'm stubborn and wrong,
But at least I know it
I keep movin' along
And hope I can get through this
But maybe this song is the best I can do it
So I'm patiently waiting on these

Heroes and Thieves at my door
And I can't seem to tell them apart anymore
Just when I figure it out
Darling it's you,
Darling it's you oh,
Darling it's you

I'm without your comforting logic like,
These days are the ones I'll miss
And I seek a solitude
That I can't find without you

[Piano Solo]

Dah, de dah

[Music stops leaving only the piano playing and a single spotlight on Tecna and Flora]

Seems like I'm getting closer somehow
A flicker of peace that I finally found
Thank you for believing in me now
Cause I do need it

Give me a year or two
And I'll mend my ways
And see these mistakes

[Music comes back]
When I see the truth,
Darling trust me, when I can see
I'll be coming back
I'll be coming back

Cause there are Heroes and Thieves at my door
And I can't seem to tell them apart anymore
Just when I figured it out
Darling it's you
Darling it's you oh,
Darling it's you I'm without

Dah, de dah...

As the music slowly faded, the spotlights all slowly faded until the stage went black.

The crowd applauded but not as much as the other performances.

"That was a nice song" Timmy complemented from the crowd.

"Yeah, but it wasn't as good as the other performances" Sky admitted.

"Why?" Brandon asked.

"I found that it didn't have that much of an edge like the others did" Riven answered.

"Yeah, but it may not have been as great as the others, but the message was noticed the most" Helia added.

"What do you mean?" Nabu asked.

"I mean, it was directed at me" Helia finished.

"They all have Helia" Timmy mentioned.

"Yeah, but not as much as this one. From all the so called lies I have been telling her, she doesn't know if I'm good or evil, a hero, or a thief" Helia said.

Back on stage, the girls were smiling, but they knew that the song wasn't as good as the others; in fact, they were worried that this one might get them eliminated.

"That was a wonderful performance girls" Palladium said as he walked on stage. Now, the two group that got the lowest marks from the judges were, Amber and the Amber Chicks, and, The Winx Club" Palladium said.

The girls couldn't believe their ears, they were got low marks this round.

"Alright" Wizgiz said opening an envelope. "The group that will be eliminated tonight is...Amber and the Amber Chicks."

The Winx girls all sighed with relief. That was a serious close call.

"For the finals next week" Palladium began, "the judges have announced that there will be a theme. The theme is duets. Both groups will choice one girl from their group, but also, one boy to sing with. Points will be deducted if the group does not have a boy singer. Good luck ladies, and see you all next week for the finals."

The crowd cheered as everyone walked off stage and the girls went to back stage.

"I am so sorry girls, I thought that song would be a hit like the others" Flora apologised.

"No Flora, don't be, it wasn't your fault" Bloom assured her.

"No it is, I almost got us eliminated" Flora said.

"Doesn't matter, this is just for fun you know" Tecna added.

"Yeah, but my song writing is slipping. I can't be trusted writing the duet for next week. Musa, you have to write it" Flora said

"No way, this is your gig, stick with it until the end" Musa said.

"I can't, I can't be trusted" Flora begged. "Please, just do it for me."

"Fine, alright, but you have to sing it" Musa agreed

"Fine of course," Flora began "but I refuse to sing with Helia."

"That's good because I'm a terrible singer" Helia said from behind as he and the other boys came in.

"What are you doing here?" Flora asked turning around to see him. "I thought I told you not to come near me, you're out of my life, remember."

"Oh I remember," Helia said moving closer to Flora. "It's a free country though, this is a public event, so I am allowed to attend."

"Yeah well you're not allowed to come near me" Flora threatened.

"Relax Flora, I'm just messing with you" immediately after Helia said that, he regretted those words.

"When don't you Helia?" Flora said sarcastically.

"I didn't mean it like that"

"Yes you did" Flora said as she turned around to face the others. "Well, I'm going to go back to the dorm and get ready for bed. Night you guys"

"Night" they all said.

Flora turned around and started heading for the door but stopped in front of Helia.

"Helia" Flora said like his name didn't mean anything.

"Flora" Helia replied moving out of her way.

Flora left and walked to her dorm.

"Ok, that went better than expected" Helia said as he left too.

"Boys" Bloom said looking at them. "I believe that I'm speaking for all the girls when I say, Helia deserves to have Flora back, they need each other."

"Is that your answer that we asked last week that you couldn't answer?" Sky asked.

The girls all nodded in reply.

"And I think I know the perfect way of making them realise that" Musa said as she dragged them away to the library.

Everyone thought that Helia left for Red Fountain, but actually, he left to follow Flora.

As Flora entered the dormitory, a knock was heard at the door. Flora turned around and opened the door to find Helia standing there.

"Go away Helia" Flora said annoyed and tired.

"No, you need to hear what I have to say Flora" Helia said letting himself in.

"What do you want?" Flora asked with her arms crossed.

"Look, you have to know that what I'm about to tell you is the truth, you have to know that."

"Tell me what Helia, you're wasting my time."

"Look, I want you back"

Flora immediately spun around and headed for her room.

"Just hear me out" Helia begged as Flora slowly turned back around to face him.

"What I did was horrible, I know that, I've always known that, but I had to do it. Saladine made me break up with you, it was either, break up with you and stay in Magix but still be able to see you even though we weren't together, then to disagree with him, leave Magix forever and never be able to see you again. Flora, it kills me that I see you hurt and broken hearted, and I am hurting too, you have to know that. I finished my exams, and now we can be together again, and nothing can keep us apart again, and I swear on my life, that I would never do this to you again."

Flora's eyes started to water. "No," she said shaking her head. "You and your lies, you can't keep lying to me Helia, this just isn't going to make things better."

"But I'm not lying Flora, you have to know that" Helia said placing his hands on her shoulders.

"No, I don't know that."

"Then trust me when I tell you that what I am saying, is the truth, Flora"

"No, I don't trust you. You lost it the day you lost me."

"Flora, how can you not trust me?"

"How can you even ask that?" Flora asked astonished and angry. "Do you have any idea how much you hurt me? You promised to drop everything for me, you promised to always be there for me, you promised that I was the only one for you, you promised that nothing in this entire world could keep you from me, you promised to love me. But you know what, I'm so sick of broken promises Helia. I can't trust what you're saying because you promised that nothing can keep you from me, that nothing can keep us apart, and NOW you're saying that something has come between us, has made you break your promise and you away from me? No, I don't for ONE minute believe that Helia."

"Flora, please.."

"Please what? Understand, I would've if you had been open and honest with me."

"I know, but I hope that you will"

"Forgive you, after all of this? The lies, mind games, the heartache, no, I don't think I can ever forgive you Helia, not after this."

Flora's face was now red and tear stained. Helia had a tear streaming down his face at this moment.

"Flora, there must be something I can do to make you believe me, hear what I'm saying, make you trust me again. PLEASE!" Helia begged as he held Flora's hands in his.

"I don't think there is. The Helia that I knew would never keep us apart because his uncle made him too. I don't believe that that's the real reason. Let me guess, you didn't love me, I was just a small fling, a pity girlfriend, the lonely flower child has no boyfriend, let's make her feel special"

As Flora listed the ideas Helia kept shaking his head.

"No, Flora, those aren't it. I broke up with you because Saladine made me, so I could have some space"

"There" Flora yelled letting go of his hands. "That's the real reason right there. You were getting sick of all the time we were spending together."

"NO! My friends were, my professors were."

"You're lying again. STOP LYING TO ME!" Flora yelled placing her hands over her ears.

"For once in your life Flora, will you trust me"

Helia regretted the words that just came out of his mouth.

Flora uncovered her ears and gave him the biggest death stare he had ever seen.

"Excuse me?"

"I...I"

"How dare you say that Helia. If I didn't trust you, we wouldn't be having this argument."

"Flora I didn't mean it like that"

"Yes you did, otherwise you wouldn't have said it."

"Flora please, I am so sorry for everything, every pain, heartache, annoyance that I have caused you. I want to be with you again. Tell what I can do to make that happen. I just want to make things right. Please, tell me how to do that."

"Sing a song, send flowers, I don't care, because I wouldn't listen or care to read the card" Flora said as she started storming off to her bedroom.

"Please, tell me how I can fix this"

"Here's an idea, why don't you ask that girl you were kissing last week" Flora said as she slammed the door.

Helia was crushed. He felt like he was just run over by 100 cars. Helia stared at Flora's door and he could hear her crying inside. He whipped the tears from his eyes and headed out of the dormitory only to be greeted by the other winx girls outside.

"Hey Helia" Tecna said happily

"Yeah, how's...it...going?" Musa slowly asked seeing his face.

"What happened?" Stella asked. "Are you ok?"

"No, I'm not okay Stella, I've just had, what feels like to be the worst day since I've been alive" Helia answered as he continued walking through Alfea's hallways and outside in the quad, heading for Red Fountain.

The girls all looked at each other and ran inside.

Flora was on her bed, still in her outfit crying into her pillow in a dark room. There was a knock on the door.

"Go away" Flora said through her tears.

"Flora, it's us" Layla announced.

"I just want to be left alone right now" Flora replied.

"Well, you can't be because that's my room too" Bloom said attempting to cheer Flora up a little with a joke.

A couple of seconds after that, the girls let themselves into the bedroom.

"Flora, what happened?" Tecna asked sitting on the bed.

"Man its dark in here" Stella stated as she made her way to the light switch.

"Don't turn on the lights" Flora said.

"Darling, I'm the fairy of the sun and moon, I don't do darkness" Stella said as she flicked the switch.

Flora groaned and covered her eyes with her pillow.

"What happened with you and Helia, Flora?" Tecna asked again.

"He told that insane story to me again this evening" Flora began.

"You mean the one about him breaking up with you because of his uncle?" Layla asked.

Flora nodded her head.

"And?" Bloom asked making her move on.

"I told him everything that I have wanted to say to him for the past few weeks" Flora answered.

"Wow, that must not have been pretty" Stella said.

The girls all gave her a death glare and some face palmed their heads.

"Right, not helping" Stella said moving to her bedroom to change.

"Flora, I think we have something that will cheer you up" Musa said changing the subject.

"What?" Flora asked whipping her tears away.

Musa smiled as she handed Flora some music sheets. "These are the sheets that we wrote just before"

"That was quick" Flora said looking at the sheets.

"Take a look" Layla said.

"Another heat calls, that's a nice title" Flora said looking at the music.

"So, who's singing?" Flora asked.

"Well, you and"

"I'm not singing with Helia" Flora interrupted.

"We weren't going to do that" Tecna said.

"We were thinking of asking Jared" Bloom replied.

"You mean the Jared, the guy who Stella set Musa up with ages ago?" Flora asked.

"The very same" Musa said a little uncomfortable.

"Alright, I'll do it, now can I be left alone?" Flora asked yawning.

"Sure" Bloom answered as the rest of them left.

Back at Red Fountain Helia entered the dormitory to find the boys there.

"Where have you been?" Brandon asked.

"Emotional Hell" Helia answered. "What are you guys doing here?"

"We are here to help you get Flora back, courtesy of the girls" Sky said proudly as he handed Helia sheets of paper.
