My Secrets and Horrors

Here come the boys

Previously

The girls all knew Flora would not hurt anyone let alone kill someone, "we all know Flora, we know. We will sort this out and find the truth." Flora managed a smile but deep down she hoped that they did not figure it out. It was the truth that she did not kill the man but if they continued to investigate they will uncover the truth about her, and then all hell will break lose.

"Do you think the girls are ready for our date later?" Sky asked as he walked into the living area of the dorm drying his golden locks in a towel. "they always are" Brandon replied looking up from his magazine, the heard a small hardened laugh and all eyes turned to the corner of the room where Riven was flexing his muscles in front of the mirror. "Stella is still getting ready when we arrive, so now I don't think they are ready. That fairy is so caught up in how she looks." The specialist said as he turned around to look at his sculpted back.

Timmy entered the room while doing something on his minicomputer, but the specialist had heard the entire conversation and decided to join in, "says the man who is flexing his muscles in a mirror to himself." The boys couldn't help but laugh as Riven throw a pillow hitting him square in the face causing him to drop his minicomputer to the ground.

"Come on Riven it was only a joke" Nabu said softly trying to calm the specialist down after he disrupted his meditation, "fine I'm going for a walk." The specialists watched as Riven grabbed a jacket and stormed out of the dorm slamming the door behind him.

Riven stormed across the courtyard towards the shed where the leva bikes was kept, muttering under his breath about the nerve of Timmy back in the dorm. He heaved the large heavy doors open to be welcomed with the smell of diesel and motor oil. As he scanned around for his designated bike he saw the light to the workshop on, curious the specialist investigated.

As he got closer, he could clearly hear the sound of a bike being worked on, as he opened the door to the workshop and he was surprised to see Helia sat at a bench fiddling with the motor from his bike. "Helia what are you doing here I thought you would of been of writing some girly poem or something for Flora, for when we meet up with the girls later?"

Helia spun around on his stool, shocked at the sudden voice, "Riven don't sneak up on me like that" Helia stressed as he let out the breath he held in. "Sorry dude, I was surprised as well I didn't think I would see you in here. Since when have you been able to sort out bikes?"

"I have been able to for years, I'm not hopeless. Anyway, I have to get this bike working again before I can go meet Flora for our date later. Where are you taking Musa?" the poet specialist asked as he continued work on his bike part.

"I decided I'm taking her to the new music shop in Magix that opened last week, Musa really wanted to go but couldn't because of school. What are you doing with Flora then lover boy?"

Helia turned back around to face Riven with a not so amused look on his face before going back to his motor, "I'm planning on taking Flora to see a collection of rare plants the museum of Magix has for the yearly festival. Nothing big but she will love it anyway." Helia replied, "Anyway what time are we leaving?"

Riven walked over to the bike which Helia used and swiped his finger along part of the engine resulting in oily fingers, "we are going to leave in about half an hour, the boys said we was meeting up in here before heading off." Seeing no rag in sight the magenta haired specialist wiped his finger in his trousers not caring of the mark.

"Sounds like something Flora would like." Riven responded to his mate, "I better go back and get cleaned up ready for later, looking at you, you may want to do the same." He continued as he walked to the door of the garage.

"Yer thanks for that Riven, I will see you later" Helia called after his friend, "got it!" the specialist almost screamed as he managed to fix his motor for the bike and installed it in to the vehicle.

By the time Helia had finished fixing up his hover bike he glanced at the clock and found that he only had ten minutes to get ready, as fast as he could he ran through the grounds and corridors of Red Fountain ignoring the stares he was receiving and headed to his dorm. "Cutting it a bit late aren't we Helia? Sky asked as he saw the nephew of Saladin run through the dorm to his own room.

Ignoring the laughs from the other boys Helia changed quickly into some fresh clothes and within five minutes was walking back to the bike shed with the rest of his friends.

The girls were sat in their dorm on the sofas thinking about the situation with Flora, none of them remembered the planned date, and it was the last thing on their minds. "Do you think Flora would really steal anything?" Stella asked unexpectedly.

"To be honest I don't know, she hasn't got the attitude to and she won't break any rules but she has the build for it. She has a gymnast's body she could be one mighty martial artist if she trained." Layla replied as she though the situation over in her head.

"But she won't, she has to have been set up. You saw the state of Flora she was broken, that cannot be faked. We know Flora, she's not a criminal." Bloom practically screamed.

Each girls face turned to shame for thinking Flora would actually do something like this, "we have to stay strong for her, she has never lied to us. Why would she start now, you know as well as me that she does not have the heart to do something like this. We have to help her" Bloom spoke softly tears threatening to fall from the edges of hr blue eyes.

They was interrupted by a knock at the door, eagerly Musa ran to the door thinking it was Ms Faragonda with news on their fiend, but she was wrong. Shock came to her face as she saw the specialists her eyes falling upon Riven's face, which quickly turned to concern as he saw the tears flowing down his girls face.

Forcing his way to the front of the group he embraced her into a warm heartfelt love, sensing his warm embrace Musa aloud all her tears to fall. As the specialists approached their respecting girlfriends, confusing grew. "What's the matter? Are you okay?" Timmy asked as he allowed Tecna to cry on his shoulder.

"Well we got back to the room one night and we heard a noise in Bloom and Flora's bedroom, we went in and found Flora on the floor covered in blood she had arrows in her body, and was being attacked by the demon things. We took them out and got Flora some help." Layla started being the only one calm enough to speak. "The cops came and told us that the demon things were guards at Magix museum they follow the criminal and take them out. The museum was broken into and the intruder killed a guard but they did try to save them. They think it was Flora."

Helia's face fell at the thought of his Flora doing the crime; he played what Layla said repeatedly in his head, his heart fighting with his head. Flora would not do that she is a good person, Helia's heart spoke to him, but she has the figure and ability. She has done martial art training before. This whole goody goody act could just be for show. His head fought back. Why would she though, what could she get from stealing?

"Where is she?" his spoke dry and raspy, everyone just looked at him, not saying a word. "Where is she?" he screamed in frustration.

"Helia, Ms Faragonda is with her, While Flora was in Alfea's hospital ward, she was attacked by the father of the man that died at the robbery." Tecna started, and Bloom continued, "He dislocated her shoulder and so now Ms Faragonda and the nurse have taken her to the hospital in Magix."

"We can't visit her until tomorrow" Musa spoke as tears fell down her cheeks soaking her top.

Helia was in total shock, "But she is going to be alright?" he muttered, "yer she is going to be fine but the police still want her. Helia, they truly think she done it, we have to find the truth before it's too late."

Without warning Helia legged it out of the room, running as fast as his feet would carry him.

Brandon looked towards Stella, "I think he took that well" the comment caused a hand to smack across the back of his head. He turned to see Sky staring at him before he turned to Bloom, "is it true?"

"I'm afraid it is"
