chapter 25
Last time: "Where's the blender?" Taylor asked walking by. "Cabinet above the fridge why?" Katy answered. "I'm going to make a smoothie." Taylor answered. "In the middle of December." Katy commented. "Yah is that a problem?" Taylor asked. "Well all I know the tradition is to usually make smoothies in the summer not winter." Katy said. "Whatever" Taylor said and walked away. "Have fun working the blender." Katy yelled.
Summary: Taylor tries to make a smoothie that pulls Bloom and Katy into the mess. So who gets blamed?
Bloom and her friends came down after Katy was yelling.
"What's happening?" She asked.
"Taylor is making a smoothie." Katy explained.
"In the middle of winter?" Bloom asked.
"Can she even work a blender?" Bloom asked.
"KATY!" Taylor shouted from the kitchen.
"Uh nope." Katy said.
"KATY" Taylor yelled again.
"And that's my cue. Gotta go." Katy said.
"Good luck" Bloom said. Katy walked away giving Bloom a thumbs up. Bloom lead everyone else into the living room.
"Where's Katy?" Justin asked.
"Helping Taylor with the blender." Bloom answered. He gave her a puzzled look.
"I have no clue." Bloom sighed.
"Come join us." Conner said making room on the couch.
"So what's happening?" Bloom asked.
"Just finding something to watch." Justin answered.
"Looks like I just came in time. Everyone settled around the tv. Bloom, Sky and Flora shred the couch while everyone sat near it. Bloom was paying attention to what was happening not knowing that Katy was trying to grab her. A crumpled piece of paper had landed right on her lap. The uncrumpled the ball and read the note.
S.O.S.
Bloom turned around and looked at her cousin who was standing in the hallway. Katy waved her over. Bloom climbed over the back of the couch but got her foot stuck in between the cushions. She fell over and hit the floor with a thud.
"Are you ok?" Musa asked.
"Yah I'm fine I'll just crawl from here." Bloom said. She crawled over to the hallway and got up. The two girls ran down the hall and into the kitchen.
"What happened?" Bloom asked seeing the room. The kitchen was a mess with strawberry smoothie splattered everywhere.
"She didn't put the cover on the blender." Katy said.
"And why am I needed?" Bloom asked.
"That?" Katy answered pointing to a moving blob.
"What is that?" Bloom asked.
"I was hoping you would know." Katy answered.
"Well I'll go get an expert then." Bloom said.
"What do I do?" Katy asked.
"Keep things under control." Bloom answered. She ran back into the living room and started crawling on the floor again. She went over to Timmy who was sitting in front of the couch with Tecna. She went over and sat next to them.
"Can you guys help me in the kitchen with something?" She asked them quietly.
"Sure." Tecna said. The two got up and went into the hall. Bloom also pulled Flora and Helia for help as well. The five went back over to the kitchen to se it messier than it was before. Bloom found Katy sitting in the conner hiding.
"What happened?" Bloom asked.
"The electrical appliances went out of control." Katy answered.
"Terrific." Bloom sighed.
"Taylor's in the middle of it I think." Katy said.
"I'll go check." Bloom said and crawled over to the doorway and poked her head in.
"Think you guys can stop it?" Bloom asked Timmy and Tecna. The two nodded and went inside.
"Help me catch that weird blob on the floor." Bloom told Helia and Flora. The three went inside and saw something move across the floor.
"There." Flora said pointing to it.
"It's just a rolling dust bunny" Bloom sighed watching the ball tumble by them.
"Will magic do the trick?" Tecna asked.
"I don't think so." Timmy answered.
"Let's start unplugging things and see what happens." Tecna suggested. Timmy nodded in agreement. Tecna went over to the counter and unplugged the toaster. She noticed it stopped rattling around and just sat there.
"That's the trick." Timmy said. Bloom over heard this and smiled.
"Everyone start unplugging things." She announced. Everyone including Taylor went around and started unplugging things. The last thing that was need to be unplug was the blender. Katy reached over and tried to unplug it.
"Bloom Taylor help." She said. Bloom reached over and helped. Taylor just leaned against the door and watched.
"Taylor help us." Bloom said.
"You started this." Katy added.
"Fine." Taylor sighed and put her hands on top of Bloom's. The three girls were able to yank the plug out of the socket hard. The blender went up in the air and landed in Katy's hands. The smoothie hit the three girls and got them everywhere.
~the living room~
Everyone was in the living room when they heard a scream from the kitchen. Everyone got up and went into the kitchen to see what was happening. They saw the kitchen a mess and three girls sitting on the floor covered in smoothie while the other four kids just stood there gasping. Sky quickly went over and helped Bloom up. Katy and Taylor pulled themselves up to their feet using the side of the counter for support. Katy took the blender and placed it on the counter.
"What happened?" Vanessa asked. Katy was about to speak when Taylor butted in.
"THIS IS ALL BLOOM'S FAULT" She yelled. Everyone looked at her.
"She set this all up." Taylor continued.
"What?" Bloom asked.
"You set this all up to get me in trouble. You and your friends used magic to get me in trouble." Taylor stated.
"YOU LYING-" Katy shouted.
"No Katy she's right my friends and I charmed this place without telling you." Bloom said.
"What?" Katy asked.
"Taylor's right." Bloom said.
"Bloom you're letting her win." Katy said.
"I know and I didn't come to Earth just to start a fight with family right in front of my friends." Bloom said.
"MOVE" Taylor ordered as she pushed her way through the crowd and up to the bathroom.
"Bloom clean up and then come and clean the kitchen." Mike said.
"Yep I know." Bloom answered then went upstairs.
"Mike Vanessa it's not her fault." Katy protested. They didn't respond. katy said nothing and went right upstairs.
"So what now?" Stella asked breaking the silence. Everyone looked at her. They walked away and went upstairs leaving her alone in the kitchen.
"Wait up" She called running after them. They found Bloom in her room combing out the yogurt.
"You ok?" Sky asked.
"Yah I'm fine." Bloom said not looking up.
"BLoom Taylor's done in the showers you heading in next?" Katy asked poking her head in the room.
"Sure why not" Bloom sighed grabbing some clean clothes. She went into the bathroom and took her shower. It took her about forty five minutes to get out and return to her room. She came back into the room in a pair or sweat pants, a red tank top and a yellow sweatshirt.
"You took a while." Stella commented.
"I know I usually don't take that long but it's the smoothie in my hair." Bloom answered.
"Lokks like you forgot some." Stella said and started picking through Bloom's hair.
"You ready to clean up the kitchen?" Katy asked poking her head in the room.
"Yah hold on." Bloom said and pulled her hair back into a braid.
"SHUT UP TAYLOR NO ONE CARES." Katy yelled after hearing her mutter something from the room next door.
"Let's go." Bloom sighed.
"What a mess" Katy stated as the two girls began cleaning the kitchen.
"You wash I'll mop and hopefully none of us will be covered in smoothie again." Bloom suggested.
"Agreed" Katy replied. Bloom began mopping by the doorway while Katy started cleaning the dishes.
"This is boring." Katy said.
"I know I can't use magic though." Bloom said.
"Terrific we'll be here all night." Katy sighed. Bloom said nothing and just shrugged. She then looked up and smile.
"What?" Katy asked.
"When my friends and I are stuck cleaning the school and it has happened before we usually turn on some music." Bloom said turning on the radio.
"You really had to clean the school?" Katy asked.
"It was punishment for sneaking out, and we got the guys to help us out as well." Bloom said.
"Sounds like fun." Katy sighed.
"It was." Bloom said.
"How long ago was this?" Katy asked.
"My first year there." Bloom answered.
"Wow." Katy said.
"Let's see if there is any noncommercial stations on tonight." Bloom said flipping though the stations.
"Ooh ooh stop there." Katy said. Bloom listed to the radio playing "Jingle Bell Rock".
"We listened to this all the time when we were little." Katy said.
"Oh yah I remember." Bloom said. She turned up the volume and katy began singing along.
"It's been a while since I heard this." Bloom sighed.
"I know." Katy said.
"You know to be honest I thought I wouldn't like coming home for the holidays." Bloom said.
"What makes you say that?" Katy asked. Bloom told her how the boys put her on the mission since they knew it was on Earth.
"Some guys you got." Katy said at the end of the story.
"What was that about us?" Sky asked. The girls looked up to see the group standing at the doorway.
"Bloom was just telling me about why you guys let her come here." Katy said.
"We need your help with something thats why we came to get you." Brandon said.
"I can't go anywhere until the kitchen is clean so it might take awhile" Bloom answered.
"You can join us. We're partying it up with Christmas tunes." Katy said. She then dropped the towel and started running for the stairs.
"Where ya going?" Bloom asked.
"Update my status." She answered.
"Hurry it up." Bloom said.
"I will." Katy called back. Bloom walked over turned the radio off and sighed. She leaned against the counter and looked at the mess that still needed to be clean. Katy came running back down the stairs with her laptop in her hand.
"I'm back" She sang walking into the kitchen. Bloom said nothing and continued. Katy turned on the music from her itunes list and began cleaning up as well.
"Here let me help with that."Helia said noticing Katy picking up a heavy bucket of smoothie that she had wiped into earlier. Bloom smiled and watched them carry the bucket over to the sink. She was about to walk over when she slipped on a puddle and almost fell backwards.
"Careful I don't want you dirty again." Sky said stopping her from falling.
"Thanks" Bloom said.
"Wow this place still needs work." Taylor said walking by the kitchen.
"Why don't you come and help us." Katy offered.
"I don't think so." Taylor answered.
"Why? You caused this." Katy commented. Taylor said nothing and walked away.
"I can't believe we call her family." Katy said.
"Yah well you know you can't pick your family." Bloom commented.
"True." Katy sighed. Bloom continued cleaning the counter, and Katy continued dumping globs of smoothie into the sink. It took the kids another hour to finish cleaning the kitchen.
"WE'RE DONE" Katy yelled upstairs.
"What'cha do shove everything in a draw and cabinet?" Taylor asked.
"If we did that we would have been done a half our ago." bloom commented.
"Right." Taylor said and went over to one of the top cabinets. She opened the door letting the pots and pans fall out and crash to the floor.
"Alright who did it?" Bloom asked looking over at Katy.
"Not me I was at the sink the whole time dumping smoothie down the drain." She said. Bloom turned her head and stared at her friends.
"Maybe it was you Bloom" Taylor assumed.
"It wasn't me." Bloom answered.
"Sorry that was me." Helia spoke up.
"Well first your nice and help me then you let me get in trouble.
"What kind of person are you?" Katy said.
"Katy you just met him for a day there's probably a chance you won't see him again." Bloom said.
"What's the chance of me not seeing him?" Katy said pointing at Sky.
"You'll most likely see him again." Bloom answered.
"Terrific." Katy mumbled and walked off.
"She doesn't seem happy about us." Brandon said.
"Oh she'll get used to it. i think it's just one of those awkward face when someone brings home a bunch of friends and you have no idea how to react." Bloom answered. "Especially if they're a group of fairies and heros" Stella commented. Bloom nodded in agreement. She went over and picked up the pots and pans and put them back neatly. "There no one touch." Bloom said backing away slowly.
"Gotta go." katy said and walked away. Bloom sighed and walked back upstairs with the group following her.
"So about the necklace." Musa said when everyone was back in Bloom's room.
"Right apparently if the stone gets rubbed bad things could happen." Timmy said.
"Ooh kid of like getting a genie after rubbing its lamp." Stella said. Everyone looked over at her.
"No it's nothing like that." Bloom said.
"Did she touch the stone yet?" Sky asked.
"No she said it was too precious to be touched." Bloom answered.
"So it's safe." Stella said.
"For now if she goes to rub the stone then we're in trouble." Bloom said again.
"Wait if she's mortal does this not effect her?" Helia asked.
"Well I don't think it matters as long as the stone remain untouched." Timmy said.
"Bloom, your mom wanted me to tell them to kick them out now or else." Hannah said opening the door.
"Ok first of all knock before entering and second of all my mom must have said it nicer than you just did." Bloom said.
"Either way out so Santa can come and drop off the presents or better yet. Here. if you hear him sneak up on the roof and take a picture for me." Hannah said throwing the camera at Bloom.
"Ok will do." Bloom answered catching it.
"Really?" Musa asked. Bloom shook her head no.
"Bloom can we have our things back?" Riven asked.
"Yah hold on." Bloom said pulling the box out of the closet and unlocked it.
"Here you go." She said.
"Mitzi didn't stay for long I hope she's alright." Flora said.
"Don't worry whatever she's doing at home, she's gotta be fine." Bloom stated. Flora said nothing and just sighed.
"Well I guess I'll set the portal up." Stella said picking up Brandon's PDA. "Stella no not that button." He warned watching Stella go for the red button.
What did Stella do this time?
