Hey everyone! This is my first time writing a Winx Club fanfic so I hope that you guys will like it. I know that there are those of you who are going to asking these questions because knowing you Winx Club fans, I can already hear it from the reviews! Yes, I will do the movies because honestly, it won't make any sense without them. Another question that I know is going to be asked in the reviews is about the Layla/Aisha character. For the record, while I'm writing this fanfic, I will be using the name 'Aisha' from season 2 onward. Also, yes, I have heard that there is going to be a reboot of the show and there is a possibility that I may or may not do the reboot. That is depending on if you guys are choosing to rush me or stress me out long before I start writing season 8.
As for the World of Winx series, at this time, I really and truly don't know if I plan on writing it or not. Keep in mind that if anyone, and I mean anyone tries to rush me while I'm writing this fanfic or any of my other fanfics, all written chapters will be delayed for a week or even possibly a month. No exceptions. Please leave a positive review and as always, Happy Reading!
I DONT OWN WINX CLUB. I ONLY OWN MY TWO OCS, THE ANIMAL THAT MY FEMALE OC HAS AND THEIR PERSONALITIES.

Kuroshiragami0-Thanks and I will.
Guest-Physically, I'm fine. I'm just not doing so great emotionally. There are those who are frustrated with me because I keep taking down my Pokemon fanfiction and reposting them with a different name for my OC. All I can say to them is that if they don't like that I keep doing it, then they don't have to read it. They can read something else in the Pokemon fandom. Right now, it will just be a while for me to feel comfortable to post them once again. As of this moment, I already have new covers ready for when I do decide to post them online.
It was night at Alfea and most of the Winx were in the kitchen, peeling potatoes. "Oh, I hate kitchen duty." Bloom complained.
"And yet, you don't complain when I cook it." said Rose.
"That's because I love it when you cook." Bloom tells her. "I just don't get it."
"What is it that you don't get, Bloom?" asked Musa.
"Why a school for fairies can't use magic to cook dinner." Bloom tells her. "It doesn't make sense." She then takes off her apron. "All you've got to do is wave the magic wand, snap your fingers, wiggle the nose a couple of times and voilà! Everything's ready without any effort."
"However, homecooked meals taste a lot better and are much healthier." said the chef as he walks in.
"Which I actually appreciate." said Rose, nodding to the chef.
"Hi, Chef SFoglia." said Bloom.
"How is the side dish coming along?" he asked.
"We're almost finished, sir." said Musa.
"These potatoes are too small." said Chef SFoglia. "Take off less skin. And what about the omelets? Don't forget to flip them, eh?"
"Of course." they said as they went to the five pans.
"Cooking is an art, young ladies." the chef said.
"When I graduate from here, I'll eat out every night." said Musa.
"I'll join you and split the check." said Rose.
"Now, let's see you flip these omelets." said Chef SFoglia. "Come on."
Flora and Tecna flip their omelets, catching them in the pans. Musa flips hers and almost misses catching it. Rose checks the bottom of the omelet first before flipping her over. Bloom on the other hand, flips hers but...it landed on the ceiling fan that was currently on. "Oh...I'm so sorry." Bloom said apologetically. "I have no idea how it happened."
"But what are you waiting for?" Chef SFoglia said. "Somebody turn off the fan."
Flora rushes over to towards the switch. "Uh...I'll do it." said Flora, turning it off as Tecna turns to Rose.
"Are you sure you and Bloom are twins?" she asked.
"We're 1,000% sure, Tecna. We did a DNA test." said Rose.
They then look up to see the fan spin a little faster. "Come on down, little omelet." said Musa as Bloom and Rose start laughing. "Don't be afraid. Trust me, no one's going to eat you."
"I said, turn it off!" Chef SFoglia shouted and Flora finally turns it off, laughing nervously. The omelet flies of the fan blade and onto the chef himself.
"Ah! I'll have a word with the headmistress about granting a permanent exemption from kitchen duties." Chef SFoglia said to the five girls. "You young fairies cause more trouble than help. Now I must clean up before dinner time so keep an eye on the roast."
Flora then opens the oven, checking on the roast. "Everything's okay here." said Flora.
"Girls, I have some really wild news." said Stella, walking into the kitchen.
"We know. You managed to get out of kitchen duties. Congratulations, Stella." said Tecna.
"Thanks a lot for making us do all the hard work." said Rose.
"Oh, I have a perfectly valid reason for that you know." she tells them. "I'm going out tonight. I've got a date. Isn't that exciting?"
"Oh valid reason indeed." said Bloom.
"I received an invitation. Guess who from." Stella boasted.
"Oh, we're just dying to know." said Musa as Rose rolled her eyes.
"Prince Sky." said Stella, showing them the invitation. "Can you believe it? An invitation to Black Lagoon sounds good, huh?"
"Wow!" said Flora.
"A guy who knows you and still wants to see you." Musa said to Stella.
"But what am I going to wear?" Stella asks them. "I'm so confused. Will you help me pick something?"
"Well...okay." said Bloom. They went back to their rooms and looked through Stella's closet.
"Stella, you have so many clothes." Bloom said, shocked.
"This is more clothes than me and Bloom combined." said Rose.
"That's the problem." said Stella as Flora picks out one possible outfit. "I need something really special, romantic."
"I'd wear this. Pure classic elegant, it's perfect." said Flora, showing her a black dress.
"For a funeral, yes." said Stella. "For a date, I need a bit more pizzazz."
"How about this then?" asked Tecna, presenting a purple dress with blue triangles a blue fuzz around the wrists and neckline. "You're sure to make a lasting impression wearing this. How could you bought something like that?"
"I didn't buy it." said Stella.
"Someone gave it to you?" asked Tecna.
"I designed it." she explained.
"In the dark?" asked Musa as Bloom and Rose walked over to a dress.
"We like this." they said, removing a dress from her closet and showed Stella.
"Yeah, that's it." said Stella, loving their decision.
"Will Brandon and Nathan be there too?" they asked.
"No, Sky gave his servants the night off and his brother is playing his guitar" said Stella as Bloom gets angry.
"Oh, come on. Brandon is not his servant." said Bloom. "He's his assistant, there's a difference."
"I didn't know Nathan played the guitar." said Rose.
"Sorry, you two. I was just joking alright." Stella tells them.
"Humph." they said, looking away from her.
"You like those two, don't you Bloom and Rose?" asked Stella. "Yeah, I know...don't tell me. It's none of my business."
"Yeah, well...you shouldn't have called him that, Stella and you don't know if Nathan was actually studying for something." said Tecna.
"Musa, could you get that box for me, please?" Stella asked.
"Sure." said Musa, taking the box and started struggling with the heavy box. "What's in there?"
"Just a few pieces of jewelry." she said, opening it.
"A few pieces?" questioned a shocked Flora.
"There. These are perfect." said Stella, choosing a few bracelets and her ring. "But, the ring is too much." She then removes her ring. "There, much better. Here, Bloom. Could you and Rose keep this for me, please?"
"But it's your magic ring." said Bloom and Rose.
"Oh, I won't need it tonight." said Stella. "Hey, who needs a magic scepter when you've got a real prince to protect you."
"I wouldn't trust that guy." said Tecna. "Something is not quite right about this date. I smell a rat."
"I smell something too." said Musa.
"You don't think...?" Rose started to ask when suddenly smoke fills the room.
"Ah! The roast!" shouted Tecna, Flora, Musa and Rose. They all ran out of Stella's room and towards the kitchen.
"Hurry up, quick!" said Musa.
"I'll get the fire extinguisher." said Flora.
"Uh-oh, what a mess." said Bloom.
"We're dead." said Rose.
"Mess you say?" asked Griselda as she enters the kitchen. "A better word would be disaster, catastrophe, calamity."
"You could also use: devastation, misfortune, debacle or fiasco." suggested Rose, looking at Griselda's face.
"Thank you, Miss Rose." Griselda said. "Your unreliability is unforgivable."
"Oh, no. Its Ms Griselda." whispered Musa.
"Airiolux." she said, clearing the smoke out from the kitchen.
"I'm coming, girls!" Flora cried out.
"I hope you have a good excuse for all of this." Griselda said as Flora runs in.
"Here I..." Flora said and trips over her footing, breaking the fire extinguisher, causing it to spill over Griselda.
"Get back to work immediately." she tells them. "Do you hear me?"
"Yes, ma'am." said Rose as she and the others giggled. "Right away, ma'am."
"Dinner must not be delayed. Do your best, girls." said Griselda as she walks out of the kitchen.
"Bread and cheese okay for you guys?" asked Bloom. "Hmm?"
Later that night, the girls finally entered their room. "We're exhausted." said Rose and Bloom. "And we're not even hungry anymore."
"How are you feeling, Flora?" asked Bloom. Flora didn't respond due to falling asleep already. "Enough said." Kiko pulls Flora's blanket over her as she slept while Lavender softly nuzzled her face.
"Anyway, I want to go out too." grumbled Musa. "With or without a date."
"Well..." said Bloom as she and Rose walked in. "It certainly would be better if someone asked us out."
"Or maybe we just need to take matters into our own hands." said Rose.
"I've not been programmed for dating." said Tecna.
"You should try it." they tell Tecna and Musa. "Anyway, it's fun."
"What's fun about dating?" asked Tecna. "It's an experience of irrelevant value."
"You have nothing to lose then." said Bloom.
"Yeah, why don't you ask Timmy." said Musa.
"I can see it now. He would be fantastic as your boyfriend." added Rose.
"Good night, girls. I'm going to switch myself off now." said Tecna as she headed to bed.
"Please tell me she's not a robot." said Rose as they smiled and laughed. Soon enough, they yawned and headed to bed themselves.
The next morning, Bloom and Rose were asleep with Kiko and Lavender by their sides when they heard noise coming from Stella's room. "Huh?" said the twins as they quickly woke up.
"Hey, what's going on?" asked Flora, hearing the same thing they were hearing.
"I don't know." said Bloom.
"I'm just hoping that I can go back to sleep and back to my dream." said Rose. Bloom gets out of bed as Rose jumps down from hers and the two of them walked over towards their door.
"Sounds like it's coming from Stella's room." Bloom said, hearing Stella rummaging around. "Let's check it out."
"Huh?" said Tecna and Musa, peering out from their room.
"You heard that too, didn't you?" asked Musa.
"Mm-hmm." said the twins.
"Stella, is everything okay?" Bloom asked, knocking on her door. "Stella?"
Stella opens her door, still wearing what she had on for her date, then gives them a huge smile. "Oh...hi." Stella said to the girls. "What's up?"
"Stella, what's with all the noise?" asked Tecna. "And at this hour? It's not even time to get up yet."
"Yeah. Because right now at this hour, I should still be having that dream I was in." said Rose, glaring at the blonde.
"Uh...bag...uh...fell down." stammered Stella, coming up with excuse. "Everything's all right. Go back to sleep."
"What's the point?" Bloom asked. "The alarm's about to go off anyway."
"Yeah and I should get started my morning workout." said Rose.
"What time did you come in last night?" Flora asked. "We didn't even hear you come in."
"It was late and I didn't want to wake you up." Stella rudely said, attempting to close her door.
"So, how'd it go?" asked Bloom. "Come on, we want the details."
"Oh, but there's nothing to tell." said Stella.
"And you want us to believe that?" questioned Bloom.
"I know that I don't." said Rose.
"Come on, come on, come on." they said to Stella.
"I said nothing happened, okay?" Stella said to the twins. "So go mind your own business."
"Stella..." Bloom and Rose said as they looked at their best friend.
"Who does she think she is?" Musa asked, raising a fist at Stella.
"No, Musa. Leave her alone." Bloom said, placing a hand on her shoulder. "She'll get over it."
"Eventually." chimed Rose as they looked at Stella's closed door.
Griselda walked through the halls, passing by Wizgiz's class, seeing the students with their transformed pumpkin heads. "And one more time, all together..." Wizgiz said to his students. "A deep breath and repeat after me...vanish pumpkin!"
"Vanish pumpkin!" the class said, vanishing the pumpkins that were in place.
"Wow." said Bloom as she and Rose placed their hands behind their heads once they had removed the spell. "That was a lot of fun."
"I think I'll be smelling pumpkins for a while." said Rose.
"Ah! Professor Wizgiz!" one fairy said, freaking out that the spell didn't wear off. "It didn't work! It didn't work!"
"Calm down, calm down." he tell her. "This is what happens when you don't concentrate enough."
"Do something. Please, professor!" she pleaded wanting her head back.
"I'll take care of it right away." Wizgiz assures her. He then takes a mouse out of his pocket. "Here we are."
"Eh! A mouse!" the girl shrieked as the mouse screeches at her, causing the spell to finally wear off.
"In a case like this, a good scare is the best cure." said Wizgiz, then turns to the mouse. "Thank you, Phil."
"No problem, Wizzy." he said.
"Professor Wizgiz, may I pet Phil?" asked Rose.
"I don't have a problem with that." Phil said, then scurries over to Rose, who then smiles as she tickles his stomach.
The bell rings, signaling the end of class. "I'll see you girls tomorrow for our first lesson on entos symbiosis." said Wizgiz. "The art of insect transformation."
The girls groaned at this, not wanting to do insects. Rose hands Phil back to Wizgiz as they all filed out of the classroom. "Did you notice? Our little princess didn't even bother to come to class." said Musa as they entered the hallway.
"I don't know what's gotten into her." said Flora.
"Maybe something happened to her and she doesn't want to talk tell us." said Tecna.
"But I thought we were her friends." said Flora.
"We'll try again with Stella." said Bloom as she and Rose walked up behind them. "You guys wait for us here, okay?"
"We can try to get her to tell us what happened." said Rose.
"Good luck, girls." said Musa.
"Flora is right. I thought we were all friends." Bloom said to Rose as they ran up the stairs.
"I thought we were all best friends." said Rose.
"And friends forgive one another." Bloom said softly, to which Rose simply nodded in understanding. "I'm sure Stella will have a good explanation for her wacky behavior this morning. At least we hope so."
"Otherwise, I'm chasing the blonde all over campus as part of my run." said Rose.
"Good idea." said Bloom as they arrived to their dorm. Bloom opens the door and the twins gasped as they looked inside. Their dorm looked like a tornado had ran through it.
"What?" they asked, looking around as they approached Stella's room.
"Stella?" Bloom called out.
"Bloom, I'm scared of what we might find in there." said Rose.
"You're not the only one." said Bloom as she opens Stella's door. "Oh, no. This place looks like it's been hit by a tornado."
"More like a Stella tornado." suggested Rose.
"I just don't get it." Bloom said to Rose as they both looked at Tecna and Musa's room, seeing that their stuff was broken. "What is going on?"
"Someone's behind us." said Rose, sensing someone as they closed the door.
Stella cleared her throat, causing the twins to look at her. "Hi, Bloom and Rose." said Stella. "Looking for me, are you?"
"Stella, you did all this?" asked Bloom. "But...but why?"
"Because I want my ring, you two." said Stella.
"But, you broke other people's property." said Rose. "That's not like you, Stella."
"Does it matter? I searched everywhere for it." said Stella. "Where is it? I want to know where you hid it!"
"Stella, are you sure you're all right?" asked Bloom.
"You're scaring us." said Rose.
"I'll be fine as soon as I get my ring back." said Stella. "The both of you know where it is, don't you?"
"We don't recognize you, Stella." the twins tell her. "Calm down, okay? Let's sits down and talk."
"I don't want to talk." said Stella. "I want my ring, you thieves!"
"We're not thieves!" screamed Rose when suddenly, Stella attacks them.
"Hey!" Bloom shouted as the twins dodged Stella's attack. "Alright, Stella, that's enough."
"You've officially messed with a set of red heads." said Rose.
"Thieves." Stella said, then rushes over to a window, turning into light as she jumps out of it.
"I don't know. I cant believe it." said Flora as she, Tecna and Musa came back to the room.
"Believe girl, this is no dream." said Musa.
"What in the world has gotten into her?" Flora asked.
"Her date with Prince Charming must have sent her into dizzy mode." Tecna theorized as she believed that Stella had gone crazy.
"On earth, we'd say she's out of her head." said Bloom.
"And on occasion, we'd also say 'Are you out of your mind?'" added Rose.
"But somehow, I don't think Sky has nothing to do with it." said Bloom. "You should have seen her. She was...she was really evil. It didn't look like her."
"Better yet, it didn't sound like the Stella we all know." said Rose.
"I don't understand the part about the ring." said Musa, confused by Stella's behavior. "Why was she looking for it? She, herself, gave it to you."
"What if she lost her memory?" questioned Flora as she looks over at the twins. "What if something happened to make her confused?"
"That's what we got to find out." said Bloom as Kiko and Lavender hopped around in the background. "For the time being, nobody must know anything about what happened."
"It'll be hard to keep this a secret for long." said Tecna, still looking at the mess Stella left behind.
"We've got to find Stella." Flora tells them. "She's not answering her cell phone."
"That would be too easy." said Bloom.
"Where do we start?" asked Tecna.
"I'm starting to wish that cell phones in Magix are equipped with a tracking chip." said Rose. "It would be easier to track Stella that way if they were."
"I'd start with last night's date." said Musa, taking a closer look at the book on the floor and picks up a piece of paper. "Prince Sky of Eraklyon. Our number one suspect."
"All right then." said Bloom. "Next stop, Red Fountain."
Once the Winx arrived, they cornered Sky. "I'd love to help you girls, but I really have no idea what you're talking about." He tells them. "Last night I worked out till 9, then I collapsed. I didn't see Stella and I never sent her a note like that."
He then sees the note in Bloom's hand and takes it from her. "Hey, I didn't write that." Sky said.
"You sure didn't. Didn't you girls know that Sky can't write?" Riven asked, passing by them.
"Very funny, Riven." said Bloom.
"We just cant stop laughing." said Rose.
"Bye, sweeties." Riven called out as he left.
"Obviously, someone has tricked her." Sky said as his dog placed her paws on him. "Did something happen to her?"
"That's what we're trying to figure out." Bloom tells her.
"Um...would it be possible to turn that animal off please?" Tecna asked, annoyed with the dog's whining.
"Lady, down girl." said Sky. "Hush, Lady."
"You can't turn dogs on and off like they're technology, Tecna." said Rose. "Dogs are like living breathing creatures, just like you and I are. Come here, Lady."
Lady went over to her, the whining ceasing as Rose rubs her sides. "There are animals on Earth who can sense stuff." Rose tells Tecna. "A friend of ours grandmother had a dog who sensed when a Hurricane made land."
"I doubt that." said Tecna.
"Lets take you to Florida on earth during Hurricane season and then see how your reaction is afterwards." said Rose, crossing her arms as Lady gave her kisses.
"Lady, Lady." said Brandon, calling the dog to him. "Come sit, girl."
"Its okay, girl. You're okay." said Nathan.
"She spent so much with Brandon and Nathan; she stopped listening to me." said Sky.
"Hi, Brandon. Hi, Nathan." said Bloom and Rose.
"Hello, Bloom. Hello, Rose." said Brandon and Nathan.
"All right, boys. Breaks over!" said a man as he crossed the balcony. "Some fierce fiery dragons are anxiously awaiting your arrival. So say goodbye to your little friends."
"Yes, professor. We'll be there right away." said Sky.
"He seems friendly." said Rose.
"That's Codatorta, the terrible." Brandon whispered. "Its best not to keep him waiting."
"You'll keep us posted, wont you?" Sky asked.
"And if you need any help, you'll know where to find it." added Brandon.
"Now what?" asked Flora.
"Do you have to ask?" said Bloom. "Let's go to Magix."
"So, you think Stella is here somewhere?" Tecna asked as they entered Magix.
"We think Stella could be anywhere at this point." said Bloom.
"Then why are we starting with the city?" asked Flora.
"Because of the Black Lagoon, remember?" Bloom asked.
"Stella said it before she went on her date last night." Rose reminded Flora.
[Flashback]
"An invitation to the Black Lagoon. Sounds good, huh?" Stella said in the kitchen.
[Flashback ends]
"That's where she was supposed to go last night." said Bloom and Rose. "Maybe they'll be able to help us there."
"Black Lagoon, hmm..." said Tecna as she brings up her database. "Using my search program, we'll be able to find it in a flash. A quick scan of the sonic map, and voilà! Huh...strange. No sign of the Black Lagoon."
"Now lets try our search program." said Rose and Bloom.
"You've got one too?" wondered Tecna. "How does it work?"
"Check this out." they tell her as they both went up to a man.
"Excuse me, sir? My sister and I are looking for the Black Lagoon." Bloom said to him.
"The two of us and our friends are meeting a relative of ours there for dinner." said Rose.
"Black Lagoon?" the man asked. "Never heard of it. Sorry."
"Thank you." Rose called out.
"See? You guys can do it too if you want." said Bloom. "Very easy to operate."
Flora shrugged her shoulders as she tries it herself. They all started asking everyone in Magix about the Black Lagoon. "Nothing. This isn't good." said Bloom. "If they want it to be a cool spot, they really should start advertising it a little bit."
"Yeah. Nobody's heard of it. There's something fishy going on here." said Musa.
"Maybe we should go back to Alfea and warn Ms Griselda." said Tecna.
"You girls give up already?" asked Bloom and Rose.
"So, basically if I was in Stella's situation, you would give on looking for me?" Rose asked. "Thanks for the vote of confidence, Tecna."
"I wouldn't." said Bloom.
"I know you wouldn't, Bloom." said Rose. "You would go miles and miles to look for me."
"I would cross oceans in Magix just to find you, Rose." declared Bloom with unwavering determination.
"Listen, this kind of perseverance is not always good, you two." Tecna tells them.
"Neither are your electronic gadgets!" the twins shot back.
"Hey, hey, this is no time to be fighting." said Flora.
"Yeah, sorry." the three of them said, glaring at each other.
"Um, excuse me ladies." a man said, walking up to the girls.
"Huh?"
They looked up at the person was gotten their attention. "I couldn't help but notice that, uh, well, you were asking and I...I think I have the information you're looking for." he said to them. "Um, but maybe it's none of my business."
"Are you kidding?" asked Bloom. "Why didn't you say anything?"
"Do you know anything about the Black Lagoon?" Musa asked. "If you do, please, pretty please with a cherry on top."
Rose starts to bat her eyes at the man as he smiles at them. "Uh, yeah. It's a great new restaurant, just outside of the city." said the man. "You follow the main road and keep going until you get to the bridge. You cant miss it. There's a really large oak tree right in front of it."
"Great. Thanks a lot mister." said Bloom and Rose. "Uh..."
"Where did he go?" asked Musa.
"What a strange man." said Tecna.
"You're absolutely right, Tecna." said Bloom as Rose nodded. "What a strange man indeed."
The Winx walked off to find the restaurant when unknowns to them, the strange man was hidden around the corner, watching them. Once out of town, the girls started crossing the bridge.
"The directions were right." said Bloom as they went towards an Oak tree with orange leaves in its branches. "Here's the big oak tree. And there's the Black Lagoon."
"What a cute little restaurant." said Rose, raising an eyebrow at the place.
"When we get back to Alfea, don't forget to update your search program." Musa tells Tecna.
"My program works very well. It's this place that's wrong." said Tecna.
"Tecna's right." Flora said, agreeing with Tecna. "There's a strange feeling about the place." Flora places her hand on the tree, trying to see if it was alive. "This tree isn't breathing. It feels odd. Cold, distant. Its as if it doesn't exist, as if it were an illusion."
"Are you sure, Flora?" asked Bloom, as Rose quietly pondered, "Rose, what are you sensing?"Top of FormBottom of Form
"I can't get a heads or tails about it. I'm usually good at sensing when people are watching us." said Rose as the wind blows behind them, opening the door to the restaurant. The wind blew harder, blowing away the leaves off the oak and the illusion disappears away from view.
"Oh, at last." said the man as the girls walked up. "There you are. We've been waiting for you. "Come in, please come in."
"It's a trap. Why didn't we see that coming?" asked Musa.
"Yeah, well, it's too late to turn back now." said Bloom as they went inside and see the man run from them. "Hey! Wait! Who are you?"
The man didn't answer as he ran downstairs. "He wants us to follow him." said Tecna.
"Probably to our doom." said Rose.
"I don't like this place one bit." said Flora.
"A fresh coat of paint, a few nice rugs, it would look totally different." said Musa.
"This is not the time to joke around, okay, Musa?" said Tecna.
"Hey, that's what Stella would say." Musa told her, knowing Stella.
"Well, look who's here?" said a familiar voice, causing them to turn around to see Stella. "My friends."
Suddenly, the door closes behind them, locking the girls inside. "I'm only here to take what belongs to me." Stella said, stalking towards the twins. "I want my ring and you're going to give it to me one way or another."
Stella growls angrily as she flies up and sends her magic out towards her friends. "Watch out!" Bloom and Rose shouted as they scattered in different directions. Flora joins the twins in their hiding place. "Great, we're trapped."
"Their cover is not gonna last." said Musa as Stella blasts the beam Flora and the twins were hiding behind.
"Don't worry. I'll take care of it." said Tecna, rising to her feet and transforms into her fairy form. "Shield!" Tecna created a shield and ran towards her friends while Stella sent blasts at her. "You girls need a lift?"
"Great timing, Tecna." said Bloom as they took cover. Stella laughs evilly as more sun blasts were in her hands.
"Ready to surrender?" she asked.
"That's enough!" said Musa. "I'm sick of being your target."
"No, Musa, don't react." Flora tells her. "We can't hurt Stella."
"But that's not Stella." said Bloom.
"It sounds like her, but its not really her." said Rose.
"She has no powers without her ring." they tell the others, then rose to their feet. "All right, enough fooling around."
"Right you are, little fairies." said 'Stella', knowing that the gig was up. "Time to shed the disguise and be myself once again."
"You're horrible as Stella." Rose told Darcy.
"The witches." said Bloom. "Get ready girls." Flora, Bloom, Rose and Musa joined Tecna as they transformed into fairies.
"Wait for me, wait for me." said the man, running up to Darcy. "Me too madam."
"But of course, Knut." said Darcy, transforming him back into himself. The Trix watched as they looked up, holding the real Stella against her will.
"Stella." said Bloom and Rose, seeing the fear on their friend's face.
"I'm really sorry. The witches tricked me." she tells them.
"Tracker?" Rose asked Bloom.
"Definitely." Bloom said, nodding. "No need to apologize. It's not your fault."
"It's their fault, Stella." said Rose.
"Now what is it that you want?" asked the twins.
"Havent you figured it out yet?" asked Icy. "We want Stella's ring of course. Poor Stella. Prisoner of my discs of energy. Squeezing her even tighter."
"You'd better hurry up." advised Darcy. "The ring is very important to us."
"We've got to have this ring, you weaklings or..." Stormy chimed in.
"Time's running out, you've got to decide Bloom and Rose." said Icy. "Stella's life or the ring."
"Yeah, well...I want world peace, Tecna to actually realize that not every living thing in the whole magix dimension can be turned on and off with a flip of a switch and to finally get through my martial arts workout in the mornings before Bloom gets out of the shower." said Rose with hope in her eyes. "But only two out of three can actually become reality and I can live with that."
Both the twins looked at Stella as the discs of energy went tighter and tighter around her body. "This is blackmail." said Flora.
"And we never give into blackmailers." added Tecna.
"Get ready, you evil witches." said Musa, pointing at the Trix. "For a thrashing of a lifetime."
"We've made our choice." said Bloom and Rose. "No, we cant put Stella's life in danger."
"Bloom...Rose." said Musa as they went back to their regular clothes.
"All right, Icy, you guys win." said Bloom as she and Rose walked over together, handing over the ring. "But this time, keep your word."
"Normally, I wouldn't but I don't need her anymore." said Icy, snaping her fingers and releasing Stella from her confinement. "We did it!" Icy tosses Stella's ring into the air, letting it become the scepter. "The scepter is ours." Soon as Knut walks over to them, he and the Trix disappeared.
"Hey." said Rose as she and Bloom hugged Stella.
"We've been had." said Flora. "We fell for it like amateurs."
"Well, maybe its because we are amateurs." said Stella.
"We could have beaten them. It was five against four." said Tecna.
"A battle could have made things worse." said Bloom.
"To us, an exchange was the best possible option." added Rose.
"But who are you to decide for all of us?" Tecna asked the twins. "Neither of you are the boss."
"Tecna. I would have done the same thing. " said Flora. Rose looked at Flora with concern in her eyes. "It's okay, Flora." she said softly then glares at Tecna. Flora tried to hide the tears that were threatening to fall, grateful for Rose's reassurance.
Then Rose turned to Tecna, her expression firm. "And who are you to decide that self-sacrifice is never important, Tecna?" Her voice held a hint of challenge.
Tecna raised an eyebrow, taken aback by Rose's sudden confrontation. "I-I didn't mean it that way," she stammered, feeling defensive.
Rose crossed her arms, her gaze unwavering. "It's easy to dismiss self-sacrifice when it's not your own life on the line, isn't it?" she remarked pointedly. Tecna looked down, feeling a pang of guilt. She had never considered the perspective of those who choose to sacrifice themselves for others.
Flora spoke up, her voice shaky but determined. "Rose is right, Tecna. Sometimes, sacrificing oneself is the only way to protect the ones we love." Tecna nodded, understanding dawning on her. She realized that sometimes, selflessness was the most important quality a person could possess.
The three friends stood in silence, each reflecting on the significance of sacrifice in their own way. Tecna nodded, understanding dawning on her. She realized that sometimes, selflessness was the most important quality a person could possess. "They might have scored a goal, but the game isn't over yet." said Bloom
"Oh, Bloom." said Rose, rolling her eyes.
"What are you two talking about?" Stella asked, confused by the reference.
"What? You don't have soccer on your planet?" they asked.
"What's soccer?" asked Musa.
"Come, we'll show you." said the twins.
"It's a game you play with the ball." Bloom started to explain as she spots an empty soda can. "Lets take this for example.
"That's not a ball." said Tecna.
"We know that, oh intelligent one." said Rose. "Just imagine that it's a ball for the moment."
"Yeah. Its just an example, Tecna." said Stella.
"Now it goes like this." said Bloom as she kicks the can over to Rose, who does a soccer trick with the can.
