A/N: He guys thanks for reading chapter 2 of Discovering her past. So like i said last time in my note, I wasn't planning on including Amber's friends but now they are going to have a small part in the story just so as not to forget them entirely and basically be a filler chapter but it is only one part, nothing big.
Disclaimer:
Me: I got Winx Club for my birthday!
Amber: No you didn't it's not even your birthday it's mine.
Me: Do you have to be so tecnical? Once again I dont own anything except my OC characters including Amber. I do not own Ke$ha or her song 'We R Who We R'
Amber: Now on with the story
Amber opened her eyes early in the morning after hearing the birds tweeting outside her window. She looked across the room to see Layla waking up as well. "Morning Layla." Amber sang cheerfully. "Hey Amber, morning." They sat up and started getting their things together.
Amber went to take a shower while Layla walked into the common room to wait for her turn. After drying her hair, Amber put on a pair of jean shorts with a silver belt and a silver midriff tank top with teal and pink accents. She slipped on silver sandals and put a teal headband with small gems on it in her hair. After a quick once over in the mirror she walked into the common room to find Flora and Layla talking.
"It's all yours Lay." Layla smiled and walked into th bathroom to take her shower.
"Hey Flo." Amber greeted, Flora replying in kind, as she took up Layla's vacated seat on the couch. "Is anyone else up yet?"
"Not yet, Layla and I were just talking about your party. Since we don't know when people will show up tomorrow we figured we would make a portal in your room and then just come down and go out back. There win't be anyone up there right?"
"That's fine, nobody but me will be up there."
During their conversation Stella managed to crawl out of her room. "You hear that Stella?" Asked Tecna who along with Musa and Bloom came out of their rooms just before Stella.
"Yeah sure." Stella mumbled plopping down on the couch. "Tell me again why I'm up so early." she asked.
"Because Stella," Layla dragged out as she entered the room. "we have to make sure Amber is ready and then we are going with her to the magic transport station."
"Oh! That's right, Amber's leaving a day earlier than us." After everyone rolled their eyes Musa reminded Stella of further happenings that we discussed yesterday. "Yes Stella, and you're teleporting us there with your Solaria staff tomorrow."
"Yeah yeah."
"Well I'm all packed so we better get going." They left the school and hopped on a bus that would take them to the magical transport station.
Amber POV:
The transport to Earth will be leaving in five minutes." The P.A. system rang through the area. "That's me girls. I'll see you tomorrow at the party. Don't miss me too much okay." I joked with them as I turned to them for a group hug.
"You remember that about us." Flora laughed out. "I know it's only a day but we can't help that we are a bunch of pretty awesome girls." Layla added.
We hugged and laughed. When we let go I said one last goodbye then turned and went to the Earth portal. After just making it there on time I stepped on and within seconds was sent to the forest by my house.
I looked around glad to be home and emerged from the last of the trees into the sunlight. Luckily there was no one around to see me as I walked down the street to my house. Making my way up the walkway I hopped up the porch steps and rang the bell. Within seconds my mother had the door open adn had me in a hug.
"Oh my baby, I missed you so much."
"I missed you too mom."
"There's my favorite little girl, You do realize this is your house and you don't have to ring the bell?" A deeper voice said from behind my mother.
"Hey dad, yeah sorry about that." I laughed as mom let me go only for dad to be next to hug me. "It's so good to see you guys. I really missed you."
"We missed you too sweetheart. It was so quiet and peacful around here for once." Dad joked. That is just like him.
"Oh don't listen to him darling. It was so boring around here without you. Your father actually tried to-" She was cut off by my dad's hand over her mouth.
"There is no need to share that with her."
"Of course there is it's funny. Your father actually tried to Write you a letter and tried to put it through the mail. Not only did he not realize that it wouldn't be able to be sent to another dimmension, he didnt even fill out the envelope right in the first place, it was a mess. So I decided to humor him and fixed it and he actually sent it."
I started laughing at my fathers silly actions.
"Oh that's not all. The mail man came to the door and gave the letter back to your father because he recognized the handwriting as his, then went on to start yelling at him for playing such a childish prank." My mom added laughing herself.
That was it. I lost it I was cracking up. I ended hanging onto a chair so as nnot to fall with tears coming out of my eyes and trying to catch my breath. I hadn't laughed that much since Musa and Layla woke Stella up by ambushing her with water guns. Oh good times, good times.
Anyway I eventually pulled myself up off the floor and excused myself to my room to unpack. After everything was put away it was almost 2:00 and I was exhausted from waking up at 6:00am, going through the portal, and the excitement of seeing my parents and fell asleep.
I woke up about an hour later refreshed and hopped off my bed. I walked over to my vanity to fix up my hair and when I was satisfied walked downstairs. to see my parents at the dining room table with smirks that would rival the Cheshire cat.
So instinctly I was worried. "What?" I asked slowly and cautiosly.
"Well since everyone is going to be here tomorrow we decided to give you one of your gifts early." Dad said.
"Why can't I open it with the others when everyone's here?" I asked confused.
My mom answered this. "Well this is a gift that the rest of the family can't exactly know about."
This of course being as undescriptive as it was, only confused me further. "Huh?" Without another word my mother grabbed a box wrapped in tye-dye wrapping paper from the table and handed it to me. I took a seat next to my dad and tore off the paper. I took the top of the box off and gasped.
Inside was a beautiful Silver tiara with diamonds in it and in the middle a larger pink gem in the center of it. "This is yours. When we found you ,this was next to you so we took this with us too. This is yours Amber."
Tears started to escape my eyes as my dad put his arm around me. This was my tiara from the planet of Lullia, my planet. There were so many emotions going through me. I couldn't even explain it. I put my arms around both of my parents.
"Thank you. You couldn't even begin to imagine how much this means to me."
"Your welcome sweetheart." Dad said this as mom carefully opened the box and took the tiara out. she delicately placed it on my head and turned me around to look in the wall mirror.
It fit perfectly. It was made just for me. It was mine, the only thing I had from my home planet. This was the best thing I could have ever gotten for my birthday. I was interupted by my phone ringing signalling i had a text message.
I wiped away my excess tears and took out my phone. The message was from Stella so I opened it and saw not a sentence but a paragraph. Then again I didn't expect anything else from Stella.
Hey Amber, I know you must miss us terribly (me most of all of course). I just wanted to let you know that we won't get there till a little while after the party starts tomorrow. Sorry. Apparently Grizelda wants to give us and the guys some rules or whatever about proper behaivor infront of NMB's or something because she doesn't trust us or something. I kinda zoned out, but hey, what are you gonna do? That and I have to change what I packed. When we went shopping for your gifts I got some new outfits so now I have to adjust everything! That's the price I must pay for being a fashion queen I guess. Which reminds me, we can't give you our gifts until after everyone leaves your party cause some of them aren't exactly NMB friendly 'A.K.A. they're not allowed to know about them cause they are'nt exactly 'normal' for Earth standards and if Grizelda found out she would have a fit. haha. anyway I heard about the tiara so I want a picture A. . Got it dawling. Don't ask me how I found out, I have my sources. See you tomrrow! :D
I laughed at the text before snapping a quick picture to send to her of myself in the tiara with a short reply message then put my phone away. I gave my parents one more hug before running up to my room with the tiara and box in my hands to go put it in my luggage bag so i would make sure to bring it back to Alfea and hid it in my closet just incase anyone came into my room tomorrow after the girls arrive with the specialists.
I looked at the clock and it was only 3:30 so I had no idea what i would do for the rest of the day. That's when I heard a knock at my bed room door and turned around expecting to see my parents again but didnt actually get to see anything before I was knocked over by three bodies.
I almost blasted them into a wall before I realized who it was. "Ahhhhh!" I squealed along with the three people on top of me. they got off me and helped me up only to pull me into a huge hug.
It was Lily, Katie, and Christine. While they were probably thinking about how long it had been since we had seen eachother I was thinking of how lucky it was that I realized who it was before I used my magic on them.
Number one rule of having a friend who is a fairy, Never sneak up on them, whether you know they are a magical being or not. There is a possibility of it ending badly for all involved by mistake.
Tony and Brad were laughing by the door frame. they calmly walked in and each pulled me into bear hugs. "What are you guys doing here?" I asked them.
"Do you really think we would let you go back to your fancy private school without hanging out with us first. We might not be able to talk as often as before but that doesn't mean you can get rid of us that easily. I have a week off of school so my parents and I came back here to visit. Your parents told us your friends were coming down so we wanted to hang out with you before they get here cause you'll be showing them around and all." Lily explained.
"That and some of those girls are pretty scary, like that Stella girl. If she gets mad I don't want to be in her line of fire." Tony added. I laughed at that but then felt bad. They were right I hardly ever talked to them anymore even though it wasn't really my fault. I can't help that there are a ton of villians out there that want to destroy us and take over the univers, not to mention homework.
"Don't worry Tony they won't hurt you, just rememeber not to get on Stella's bad side and don't do anything to hurt me or the others because then you would not only have all six of them on your case but if you hurt any of my firends you all ready know it will be bad for you. Or have you forgotten that?"
"Trust me I haven't." he said putting his hands up in surrender as he recalled the time I flipped him over on his back when we were ten and he hurt Christine's feelings.
"Sorry about not keeping in touch with you guys very well. It's REALLY busy at school." There, I told them the truth without revealing anything that couuld give the secret away or make them suspicous, and seriously I had a LOT of homework.
"Well let's go." Christine urged.
"Uhm, where?" I asked. I had to ask a lot of questions today. Nobody seems to want to outright tell me anything.
"Well we are going to celebrate of course. Your birthday may not be till tomorrow but we are just going to have to celebrate a little early." Katie said this and we left the house and got into Brad's car and drove off to an awesome little dance club that Katie's family owned.
We went in and danced, talked, and had an over all great time. Lily, Katie, and Christine even talked me into doing karaoke... who am I kidding they dragged me up there and forced me to do it.
I actually enjoyed it though. I found out I really like singing.
Maybe I could even talk the rest of the Winx into starting a band, I'm sure Musa will be all for it, and I could definately get Flora and Layla to agree.
Anyway, the best part of the night by far was when Brad and Tony got up and sang 'We R Who We R' by Ke$ha. They did not do that song justice at all. I think they might even have ruined it for some people.
This is looking to be a pretty good birthday so far, and the fun has just begun.
