For those of you who think I'm abandoning my story. I'm not, I promised. I just plan on updating once or twice a month and also I had writers block. And also I have a lot going on right now but I promise not to abandon my stories. And I hope I don't sound mean or anything I just want to clear that up.
Chapter 8: Finding Helia
Flora's P.O.V
I've been in the infirmary for a week and no one ever told me about Helia. I'm starting to get worried. Every time I asked people they all just say he doesn't want to be seen. Not even by me. Which kinda hurts. I understand that he need some alone time but a whole week? Well I hope he's doing a lot better than me because I'm going crazy in here. Hopefully today or tomorrow is my last day.
Right now I'm reading a book til I see Aria coming in her with a tray of food. She placed it on my nightstand and I sign thanks to her. She's deaf so everyone had to learn sign language. Not that I or everyone else mind. I think its really cool to talk with the hands. Helia told me she showed up at the door unconscious. So they decided to take her in. She is a really sweet girl. I enjoyed getting to know her.
She signed 'your welcome' and was turning to leave but I grabbed her arm. She looked a me questionly.
"Where is Helia? Please Aria I have to know. I'm really worried about him. I know it's a secret. But please, Aria, I need to know."
I signed.
"I'm sorry but it is forbidden to tell you." She replied.
"Why?" I asked signing.
"Because he don't want you to know what happen to him." She replied
"Then what happen to him? Please, Aria, tell me. I love him." I signed.
"All right I'll tell you where he is. But as for finding out what happen to. You'll have to see it for yourself. He is in the turret at the east end of the castle. But be careful there two guards standing in front of the stairs and one in front of the door." She said.
"Thank you" I signed before getting out of bed.
"What are you doing? You have to stay in bed." She signed.
"Relax, I'm going to see Helia. As for staying here-" I said turning to my bed and perform the duplicating spell and another me was on the bed reading a book. I turned back to Aria and signed, "Cover for me, okay?"
"Okay." She replied.
"Thanks." I signed. Now time to start my transformation so I can get there easier.
"Magic Winx." I said.
I transformed and flying out the door. I smiled and waved towards Aria through the door way and zoom off.
"Golden Pollen, locate Helia, and turned invisible if someone comes." I said before blowing into my hands letting the pollen fall on the floor and it turn into a arrow.
Some time later….
I finally found the tower Helia is located in. I looked around the corner and see the guards standing on either side of the stairs.
"Flower Sleeping Gas." I said and aim my hands at the guards. Two pink lotus flower floated in the air towards them. They look confused but before they can move the flowers shooted out the gas and the guards fell asleep.
"Sorry." I said flying passed them and up the stairs.
Finally I made it to the top. But quickly duck down when I seen the guard. I repeated the same spell I used on the guards downstairs.
I quickly went to the door. I knocked it a couple times.
"Helia, please open up. I'm really worried about you." I said. No answer.
"Helia, please." I said pouding on the door. Still no answer. I zapped the lock out of frustration and kick the door in. I walk in and it was dark but I could see a figure with its back towards me.
"Helia, please talk to me." I begged.
He stood up and turn around. I gasped and widened my eyes. What I see when he turned is the shock of my life.
