The next morning Bloom awoke, her pet rabbit Kiko tickling her cheek with his whiskers. His gray and white fur was aft against her skin. Scratching his long ears she sat up, stretching as she swung her feet over the side of the bed and onto the floor.

"Good morning!" Flora said cheerfully as she strode in, already dressed for the day in her signature green and pink. Bloom cracked a eek smile. There was no possible way she was that cheerful at eight o' clock in the morning. Of course, being a fairy with nature powers, Flora was always the first to rise in the morning, helping the other girls get ready for classes. The others were also up, surprisingly, lazily finishing last minute things like hair and brushing teeth, tying shoes and the like.

"Did I really sleep this late?" Bloom asked groggily, shrugging out of bed to grab some clothes. Musa nodded as she snapped red elastic bands into her hair, tying it off into two long pigtails.

"Yes you did! Come on- we're gonna be late!" After a few minutes, she managed to get ready, rushing out the door. She crossed her fingers, hoping the first bell wouldn't ring.

Of course, she couldn't have everything. The bell chimed loudly, ringing in her ears as she and the others read to class, barely making it into their seats as soon as the teacher turned around.

Professor Wizgiz was cheerful every morning, greeting all the students and faculty with his signature smile. His red coils bounced under his top hat as he hopped up on his desk- being a leprechaun, it was extremely difficult for him to sit in the chair and peer over the desk.

"Good morning, class!" he greeted them cheerfully, jumping from one foot the the other, "I'm your teacher, Professor Wizgiz, and welcome to your first Potions class of the year!" There was excited chatter amongst the class- it was said Wizgiz's Potion class was the best course in Alfea by far, Professor Palladium's class also giving it a run for its money. Bloom was seated next to Stella again, with Flora behind her. Techna and Musa were a row away, sending them funny faces from across the room.

"Now!" Wizgiz clapped his hands, capturing everyone's attention, "I understand all of you are training for your chance to receive your Enchantix-" there was a loud cheer from the class, "- but it takes great responsibility to use what you are given!"

"If he's talking about the neat clothes, than that isn't a problem!" Stella sang to Bloom under her breath, Flora trying to stifle a laugh as Wizgiz sent a cautious look Stella's way to say "Be quiet!" Snapping his fingers, there was a pop as a brown burlap sack appeared on the desk. Bloom squinted at it- it looked like the one Griselda had yesterday! Apparently the others thought so too, leaning over to say, "didn't Griselda have that yesterday?"

"Yes," Flora said, "but Faragonda said she gave it to Wizgiz and Palladium for testing or something." Patiently, the leprechaun let the noise die down until he cleared his throat.

"Once you receive your Enchantix, what else comes with it?" he asked, "anyone know? Ah, yes!"

A girl with short red hair raised a hand, a smile on her face as she answered exuberantly, "Fairy dust!"

"Right-o!" he said, "and this dust helps to ward of evil spells and curses. Now-"

A loud bang cut him off, drawing collective murmurs fem the girls. Looking around, Bloom scratched her head- it definitely hadn't come from inside, since the door wasn't off its hinges or anything. So where….

"EEEK!" cried a short haired girl, pointing frantically at the window, "Professor, something is trying to get inside!" Chairs and desks scraped the floors as the girls rushed to get to the opposite side of the room, some of them holding onto their friends for comfort. Jumping off the desk, Wizgiz raised a finger to his lips.

"It's alright, everyone!" he announced, "just calm down, alright?" They watched as he hopped up onto a desk, staring intensely at the window. There was a moment of silence before it happened again, another bang. Bloom jumped slightly.

"Whoa!" Wizgiz cried, fixing his to hat as the mysterious thing tried again and again to get through the window, tiny pinprick cracks snaking across the surface. As they watched she noticed a soft yellow glow…..

"Stella- it's the person who had the dust from yesterday!" she hissed, her friend giving her a confused look.

"Are you su- oh!" she said excitedly once spotting it. A small ball of pixie dust was repeatedly banging against the window, the crack getting bigger and bigger until the glass pane finally shattered, small shards skittering across the floor. The ball floated around, looking more like a blur as the girls tried following it, eyes darting frantically back and forth.

"Wow, that thing is fast!" someone commented. The teacher could only nod, tipping his hat at a jaunty angle. Bloom followed it as best she could, and then it hit her:

It got a bit bigger each time it made its rounds. Every time it made a complete lap around the room more desks and chairs got knocked over. Techna and Musa joined the three of them by Bloom's desk, which was unfortunately smack in the middle of the room- and the wreckage.

"What's it dong?" Musa asked.

"Dunno," Flora answered simply. After the thing made its fourth lap, they could see it was the size of one of them- average looking height, the dust beginning to fade to show off a slender silhouette. The girls cowered away from Bloom's desk as it then crashed, the desk turning ion splinters as it broke neatly in half.

"I'll get Headmaster Faragonda!' cried another student- a girl with blue hair tied in a braid. Wizgiz nodded as she ran out the room, approaching the human sized ball of dust. The bright yellow glow had slowly been fading, until it was a pale yellow surrounding the intruder.

"Whoa…." Musa muttered, pointing to her.

Shakily getting up among the wreckage was a girl who looked to be about the same age as the students. Her black hair was tied back in a high ponytail, save her swooped bangs that flew across her forehead, two thick wisps hanging to farm her face. There was a tinkling noise coming from her as she opened her mouth, dusting herself off- her clothes were covered with bits of yellow sparkles.

"Excuse me!" Professor Wizgiz cleared his throat loudly, the girl whipping her head up, searching frantically for the sound. Blinking, she met eyes with Bloom momentarily.

"Humans!" she suddenly screamed, tripping over the wreckage, "oh god, no!" A pair of thin wings sprouted from her back, a blur a she suddenly rose a few feet in the air, speeding out the open door. Dust blew up in clouds as she made her exit, the girls and Wizgi coughing harshly. Waving it out of her eyes, Bloom said, "What was that?!"

"Good question Bloom!" Wizgiz said cheerfully, "but the better question is who was that?" With a snap of his thin fingers, the room was cleared of dirt, the desks magically putting themselves right. Bloom's own desk snapped back together, no visible crack to be seen. Flora raised a hand as everyone took their seats.

"Professor Wizgiz," she said, "she said something about humans-"

"And was that her Enchantix formation?!" Musa cut in excitedly, her blue eyes twinkling with curiosity.

"She was covered in fairy dust, so I believe so," the leprechaun agreed. He opened his mouthy o add on to his statement when the bell rang. Cautiously, the class dispersed, Bloom and her friends pushing their way through the hall.

"Hey, where are we going?" Stella asked as they rounded a corner, past their dorm room.

"That fairy!" Bloom said, "it looked like she was headed for Faragonda's office- let's go see if we can catch her!"
