(Bloom POV)
I have hit my head so many times I can't even remember the number. I flicker my eyes open and search around. Sky is next to me, also looking a little dazed and confused. I shake my head and look straight and remember why I'm here. I get up slowly, praying to anyone that this has worked. One step at a time I have made it the alter and staring at Flora.
There's is no more blood stain, and her dress looks good as new. He skin is less pale and gone back to her natural summer tan glow. I lean over her a bit and I her eyes flutter open and I suck in a breath.
"Flora…" I whisper, not believing y eyes. It worked, it really worked.
"Bloom, what happened …." She whispers in a hoarse voice. I just laugh of pure happiness.
"You're Okay…" I whisper and put my hand to her cheek. She looks really confused.
"Of course I'm okay, never felt better" she smiles. I help her sit back up and I give her a proper hug. But she soons becomes a bit over whelmed on what's going on. She must have been unconscious for a while.
For the next couple of hours everything is a bit hectic. Sky carries Flora back to the ship. Apparently they got rid of the guards and tired them up, that's my team! I stayed in the creepy chamber to make sure King Miler stayed unconscious. Then Sky came back and he contacted the Magic's council and I left before they came. Knowing Uther he would have found some ridiculous loop hole to get me arrested. I have been on a three year lucky streak with not having anything to do with the magic council. And I would like to keep it going.
Now we are heading to Alfea, so we can get Flora checked out. She keeps asking if the baby is okay. I just keep telling her to rest though. I don't know if she is still pregnant. I don't know if the egg saved one life or two.
(Sky POV)
As soon as we went into Alfea, Ms Ofelia was up and ready and instantly checking out Flora. Besides Heilia, everyone was talking to Faragonda. But Bloom had disappeared. I still have no ideas of how she was able to bring back Flora, literally back from the dead or what that egg thing was.
I look around the school for a while. It's pretty quiet because everyone is on break. Bloom is not in her normal hideouts sometimes I found her in, when she still went here. I finally pass the corridor of mirrors and remember the secret library she showed me a couple of times. I find the right mirror and push it and it clicks open.
It's a little darker then usual when I enter. The circler room, with the tallest book shelves you can imagine. A couple of reading chairs in the middle. But on the far side of the room there she is, sitting on the floor legs tucked up to her chest and her head leaning to the side on her shoulder.
I slowly walk over to her, she lifts her head up and gives me a small smile. I do the same as her how she sits on the floor but I stretch my legs out in front of me as I lean against the bookshelf. From the look of Bloom, she has been crying.
"That egg, you got that from Kira, didn't you?" I question softly. She nods in response.
"It was one of the great dragons egg." She whispers and wipes her noise. She looks very fragile. She has had a lot happen today.
"You mean like where you power comes from." I ask.
"Yes, there were only a few that the great dragon laid when it settle on Sparks at the start of the magical universe. Kira's family had saved it all those years. She use to live on Sparks but moved a few years before it was destroyed..."
"I was going to use the egg to restore Sparks…" She states quietly. And some more tears fall down her cheeks. I now realise why she s crying. That egg was an answer to something she has been trying to figure out for so long and …well.
"I was going to activate it in the under channels in Sparks. The energy would have radiated through the veins of the planet like a cure… but I guess that's not going to happen." She laughs hopelessly.
"There's no other eggs?"
"No, there all gone." She looks straight ahead." I feel so conflicted, I feel happy that I saved my best friends life, but feel guilty for not using it to restore Sparks. And then I feel guilty because I am guilty because I rather save a planet and people I never met then my best friend, who was always there for me. And I just feel like a terrible person."
"Bloom you're not a terrible person." I say clearly and study her face ."You saved Flora's life and you stoped Miler from killing any more innocent people."
She just nods along but she doesn't look convinced. "Hey." I whisper to her and I softly pinch her chin and move her head so she is looking at me.
"Your going to find another way to restore Sparks and find your parents. I know you are." I say and I look into her empty eyes and she smiles slightly and nods. I let go of her chin and she slightly tilts her head.
"What are you going to do about the alliance?" she asks. I haven't really thought about it. I actually don't want to think about it.
"I have absolutely no idea, but I think the alliance is broken, I mean you were right." I admit." But it's for my father to decide, and I am guessing Camlia will have to go back and rule Bentonon, she has no siblings so…"
"It's funny how one day can change everything." She says softly , then she smiles a care free smile ."I have hit my head over three times in the past 30 hours and somehow I am still standing."
I laugh and so does she, but it dies down and she becomes more serious. I then I ask a question I was going to ask before this whole drama happened.
"Bloom about that kiss…" I start. I visually see her whole body tense up. Her bones become rigid.
"It never happened." She says with strength.
"Bloom-" I try to finish.
"It never happened!" She shouts and shoots her gaze at me. She then softens and gets up.
"Is Flora still in Ms Ofelia's office?" She questions as if what was said never happened. I just look at her in the eyes for a few long seconds and she looks emotionless.
"Yeah, she wanted to see you anyways…" I mutter and Bloom then leaves through he door. And I am left with nothing; I have lost a lot today.
(Bloom POV)
I chickened out before I was going to see Flora so I went to our old chambers, when we sort of lived together when we taught here. Flora still does but she is on break like all the students. And I guess she will take time off now that she is pregnant … if she is still pregnant.
I end up taking a long nap on my old bed. It's nearly night when I open my eyes again. I guess I need a nap, my head deserved it. But now all I can do is worry about everything again. Flora, the baby… Sky. But I focus on one thing first and that is Flora.
No one else is in the sick bay waiting area. Only Ms Ofelia at her desk and when she see me she gives me a warm smile and tells me Flora's down the end.
The curtains are around the bed, so I can't knock so I just slowly part the curtains. Inside there is Flora propped up on the pillows sitting up. Heilia sits on the side of the bed close to her as she leans her head on his shoulder and Heila kissing her forehead and comforting her.
I must have court they attention because Heila looks up at me and Flora notices the movement and she has a soft smile on her face.
"You took your time sweetie" she teases and I give a nervous smile.
"Well I just had to rest this poor old head of mine" I joke and look at Heila who still seems sorry for punshing me earlier. Flora just nods along. And she becomes more serious.
"Sky told us what happened ,Bloom, how I was pretty much dead." Flora says softly. And Heila squeezes her hand. She swallows harshly." And even after everything I said the night before, you gave up what you did for me and I-"
I race over and hug her tightly "Stop Flo, please your my best friend I wasn't going to let anything happen to you."
Flora softly cries on my shoulder and I notice Helia rubbing her back. I let go and sit on the other side of the bed.
"Bloom I'm so sorry that you had to use that egg on me when it could have-" I cut Flora off.
" Flora, I chose to save you, I wouldn't have it any other way." I whisper with a smile. And then it dawns on me. "But are you still…well, is the … you know."
Flora gives me a confused look, and then she realizes and smile. "Yeah, I'm still pregnant, I'm healthy so is the baby." Flora puts a hand and her stomach and lightly taps.
I let out a huge sigh of relief. I can let myself breathe easy again. "Thank god" I whisper more to myself and look back at Flora.
"So what's the plan, now for you Bloom." I know Floras question is more serious but for now I don't really want to think about the future.
"Well I plan to have a big meal and a long sleep before anything else " I tease and Flora gives me a stern look.
"I don't know… But you need to get some rest, and take care of yourself and that little baby of yours." I say while rubbing her stomach and getting up. I kiss her on the forehead and say goodbye. Heilia follows me out.
"Bloom thank you for what you did." Heilia says genuinely.
"Like I said before, I wouldn't have it any other way." I reply back.
"And about before with knocking you out…"
"Ha! that's was my fault, next time just punch the crap out of him will you , for me." I tease and Heilia and I laugh.
"Will do, but I am scared of what the consequences would be" Helia becomes more serious. "He missed you, Bloom, he really does."
"I miss him to but… it was never going to work out." Heilia doesn't press the issue and nods.
"Well take of her, I'll see you soon yeah?" I say and I give Heilia a hug and he returns it.
"Certainly, drop by Linfea any time."
And with that he goes back to Flora and I go see Mrs Faragonda.
