DISCLAIMER:Sigh, no, I don't own Winx Club, well not yet that is... I DO however, own Galin and Zoltan!

"Are you sure his powers only work in the twilight realm? I just felt a massive energy wave."

"Yes, ever since my twilight pendant was broken, I am powerless here. I can't even read the runes that I grew up reading, because I need magic to read them."

"Interesting" Bloom said as she began to realize what was going on.

"Wait a minute! Did you just say you felt a massive energy wave?"Bloom nodded, and then realized what she had done. "So, you're a magical being then. What are you? You're not an avatar, that's for sure, and you're definitely not a witch, so that makes you...a fairy!" Bloom nodded, unable to think of any simple ways out of the hole she had dug herself into.

"Yes, I am a fairy, but none of you can tell anyone about it! I wasn't supposed to tell anyone in the first place, so consider your selves lucky." Bloom decided that she would give them the full story, since she had admitted to being a fairy. Maybe they could help with her task. "I was sent here to find a fairy that's been living on Earth, do you have any idea who it might be?" Everyone shook their heads no, and Austin added to his head shake.

"I would like to speak with you before you leave on this subject again, please." Bloom nodded in acknowledgement. Suddenly, a loud booming sound came from directly behind Bloom, who whirled around only to find that the grandfather clock in the corner was making all the noise. It chimed six times, before Galin told Bloom that they would have to go for today, but she could come back tomorrow to watch the game if she wanted. Bloom liked this idea, because it gave her an excuse to be with the boys more, so she could figure out what that wave of energy had been.

On her way out, Bloom stopped to take a moment to talk to Austin. "You said you wanted to talk to me?"

"Yes, it's about this fairy search business, I think you may not be looking for what you think you're looking for.

"What do you mean I may not be looking for what I think I'm looking for?"

"I can't be certain, so I will say no more, but I am warning you now, expect the unexpected."

When Bloom got back to the house, the girls were all lying in their make-shift living room, and they were all visually relieved when Bloom walked in in one
piece. "Bloom! You're all right!" Was the first thing she heard after walking in the door. It came from a very happy Roxy, who looked as if she hadn't stopped worrying since she had left her there, no more than an hour ago.

"Of course I'm all right, did you think that creepy guy had attacked me again? I think we beat him badly enough to send him into hiding for now."

"Beat him? What are you talking about? We ran for our lives! How is that beating him?"

"We beat him because he knows that whenever he starts a fight with us, we can use our Zoomix powers to escape. He's going to have to strategize, and that should give us time to do the same thing."

"So, while he figures out how to stop us from escaping, we figure out his weakness?" Roxy asked with a strange look on her face.

"Pretty much." Replied Bloom, "Oh, by the way, I have some news." The rest of the Winx gave her a look that said, "What did you do this time?" Bloom looked back, "What? It's not bad news!" The girls' faces lightened. "Well, not all of it." Before anyone could interrupt, Bloom spurted out, "Austin is a wizard, and the guys that Mackenzie role plays with know I'm a fairy."

"WHAT! How did that happen?!" Stella was completely flipping out.

"Well, I felt a massive energy wave, and we were already on a magical topic, so it just sorta slipped out, I'm sorry." Bloom looked at the ground. "If it makes you any happier, I think I know who will lead us to the fairy." With this, the room fell silent, and when Bloom looked back up, she could see the anticipation. "Austin"

Once again, Galin found himself being chased by some dark evil beast. It had been a recurring nightmare that he had started having at around seven years old. This time though, it was different. He could hear Bloom's voice, coming from behind the monster that was after him, telling him not to stop running. He was running towards a fairly long canyon, he was going to have to jump across it. He ran towards the edge, going faster and faster, and then as he jumped, he heard Bloom's voice. "Galin! It's a trap!" It was too late, he had already jumped, and he saw the shadow lunge for him from inside the canyon. Galin let his instincts take over, and felt energy building up in his body like never before.

The shadow from the canyon was getting closer to him, and the energy was building in him. The beast put on a sudden spurt of extra speed and just missed him. The beast turned around, and lunged right for him, there was no way he would escape. "Nova Burst!" He felt the energy leave him all at once, and the shadow fell like a stone. When he landed on the far side of the canyon, he rolled, and when he stopped, he saw Bloom standing above him.

"You are not what you believe yourself to be Galin. You are more than human." She started to fade away. "Remember Galin, remember the Winx." With this, Galin woke up, and looked at his alarm clock, only to discover it wasn't there, he had fallen asleep on the couch. He heard his alarm clock go off from his room. That was odd, how had his alarm gone off, if he had fallen asleep on the couch? Then Galin considered the idea of him sleepwalking to the couch. That was very unlikely though, down two flights of stairs, and through a kitchen that was mousetrap central, all the way down to the couch. Oh well, it didn't matter how he got there, what mattered was that he was up now, and he could get ready for the long day ahead of him.

"Come on Bloom, we're going to be late if you don't get up here!" Mackenzie yelled downstairs. "I don't want to make the guys wait!"

"You called?" Bloom said as she put her shoes on behind him. She was in a pair of jeans, with a rainbow-colored shirt on. "Do you like it? Stella made it just for me."

"How did you, you were just, what?!"

Bloom laughed at his reaction. "I teleported" She told him as she opened the door and started to walk down the front path. "I thought I would surprise you."

"Well, you certainly did a good job surprising me." Bloom nodded. "Ok, so when we get to Galin's place, he'll explain how this is going to work. Any questions about today that you may have, need to be directed to him.

"Like when we're having lunch? Oh, or where his bathroom is?"

Mackenzie laughed "Ha ha very funny." His face took a more serious look, "Yes, the location of the bathroom is vital knowledge, no matter where you are."

"Here is the case you requested headmistress."

"Thank you very much Mirta. This case is going to be very important to the Winx soon." Faragonda said as she pulled a locket out of the box. "Oh yes, very important indeed."
