Chapter 5
The next day during class Bloom, Layla, Stella and Flora were working on an assignment for Avalon. Bloom had just finished her work when there was a knock on the door. The class looked up and saw Griselda.
"Faragonda needs Bloom for an important assignment." She said poking her head in the doorway. Bloom grabbed her books and handed in the assignment. She walked into the hallway and found Brandon leaning against the wall in his hero uniform.
"I just need to go to the dorm quickly." She told Brandon.
"Ok me outside in the quad." Brandon said turning around and walking in the opposite direction of where Bloom needed to be. Bloom burst into her dorm and quickly went into her room.
"Grabbing her cellphone and a shoulder strap bag.
"Bloom what's going on." A voice stopped Bloom before as she was about to open the door.
"I need to do something for Faragonda so I might not be back until after classes ok?" She told Lockette.
"Ok Bloom I'll let the others know." The pixie answered.
"Thanks I'll be back soon bye." Bloom said patting her friend's head then left the dorm. Bloom ran out to the quad and saw Brandon with the squad ship. She climbed on and saw Timmy and Helia inside.
"Hey you guys." Bloom said.
"Hey Bloom." Helia answered back.
"Ok next stop Red Fountain." Timmy said taking off. Bloom asked.
"Sky and Brandon got you involved in this" Helia said.
"Hey" Brandon shouted.
"What you two planned on doing this after you were both assigned to the mission." Helia answered. The two got into an argument and continued until they reached the school. Timmy and Bloom both got off following the two arguing boys.
"What's happening" Riven asked. He was waiting for them to arrive.
"Bloom asked who decided to have her apart of the mission. So Helia told the answered." Timmy said.
"From that point until we got here they've been arguing nonstop." Bloom finished.
"I see" Riven said. They started walking to Saladene's office listening to Brandon and Helia arguing behind them.
"Thirty minutes a new record." Timmy said.
"Think Sky will join the fight when he finds out?" Bloom asked.
"Let's hope not." Riven answered. The three walked ahead of Brandon and Helia trying to ignore the argument. The group stop when we reached the door to Saladene's office.
"Should we go in with them arguing?" Bloom asked.
"I think we can do without the argument." Riven answered.
"So how do we stop them?" Timmy asked.
"Knock it off you two. let's get this meeting over with then you can continue fighting." Riven yelled at his friends. Bloom pushed the door open and walked in to find Sky and Saladene waiting for them. Riven followed with Timmy trying to control Helia and Brandon from arguing.
"Sorry for the wait we had to control some students." Timmy said looking over at Helia and Brandon who had tape across their mouths.
"What did you do to them?" Sky asked.
"Taped their mouthes so they wouldn't continue arguing." Timmy answered.
"Yah but they could rip the tape off their mouthes with their hands." Bloom said.
"Not unless you have handcuffs." Timmy replied spinning the two boys around.
"And their weapons?" Sky asked.
"Confiscated them so they couldn't hurt each other." Timmy said.
"You do know when they you take the tape off their mouthes it will hurt." Bloom said.
"Not unless you use magic." Timmy said.
"Can we get serious here? Bloom take the tape off of Helia and Brandon." Saladene said.
"Yes sir." Bloom answered pointing her finger to the tape. She moved her finger in a horizontal line watching the tape do the the same thing across the boys mouthes pealing off slowly until it fell on the floor.
"Timmy now take off the handcuffs and give them back their weapons." Saladene said. Timmy sighed and did as told. After Brandon and Helia were free they started attacking Timmy who just handcuffed them.
"So what was the argument about?" Sky asked.
"You don't want to know." Riven said.
"Follow me and I will tell you what's going on while these three continue their argument." Saladene said leading Bloom, Riven and Sky out of his office.
"So what do we do with the other three?" Sky asked.
"Leave them alone we can fill them in later." Riven said.
"What was the argument about?" Sky asked.
"I rather not tell you now." Bloom said. They went to a classroom to talk about the mission.
"Ok Bloom we figure that what what Valtore is looking for is right here." Saladene said pointing to a town on the map.
"Gardenia right where I live." Bloom said.
"Right now we don't know what Valtore wants or whose holding the thing he needs.
"You will go to Earth to make sure that nothing changes and every thing's normal. Sky and Brandon will check in on you to make sure everything is ok. They will also be researching to see if they can figure out what's happening and warn you before Valtor causes trouble." Saladene said.
"And they will let me know so I can stop him before he does any harm right?" Bloom asked.
"Yes" Saladene answered. Just then the door opened revealing the three boys who were arguing now limping into the room with cuts all over their body.
"What happened?" Riven asked.
"The fight got carried away that we resorted to using our weapons." Timmy said scratching his head.
"Come in boys I have an assignment for you guys while Bloom is in Earth." Saladene said. Bloom's phone suddenly went off.
"Now what?" Bloom sighed answering her phone.
"Hello?" She asked into the phone.
"Hey Bloom I just wanted to say that your cousins are coming over so we're having a family reunion" Her mother said.
"That's great can we talk about this later I'm busy right now?" Bloom asked.
"Ok course bye." Her mom said.
"Bye" Bloom said and hung up her phone.
"Sorry my mom giving me info
"It's ok ." Timmy answered.
"Ok now Timmy will make so gadgets to help you." Saladene said.
"Right" Timmy answered.
"Ok but I have family coming over that don't even know I'm a fairy that can do magic." Bloom said.
"I'll modify them to look like Earth technology then but it will take a few days to research and create." Timmy said.
"I'll tell Faragonda and let her know that you agreed to do this mission. Right now why don't you kids take a break then I'll let you know what else is happening" Saladene said. The group nodded and left the room. Bloom sat outside under a tree with her notebook on her lap writing her notes out of her textbook that she kept next to her in the grass.
"Need water?" A voice asked her. She looked up and saw a hand place a water bottle in front of her.
"Thanks Sky." She said taking the bottle from his hand.
"So you found out it was my idea." Sky said sitting next to his girlfriend on the grass.
"Yah Helia told me the minute I got on the ship which started that argument between him and Brandon." Bloom said placing the water next to her.
"You mad?" He asked.
"A little but not that far to you my magic against you." Bloom answered.
"Ok how about when the mission's over I take you out on a date." Sky said.
"OK we can plan it when I get back." She answered.
"Doing make up work?" Sky asked.
"Yep since someone got me out of class early." Bloom answered with a smile.
"Sky Bloom " Brandon called from the distance.
"Looks like we're needed" Sky said. The two got up and walked over to Brandon.
"What's up?" Bloom asked.
"Saladene said he told Faragonda and We should bring Bloom on over way over to Cloud Tower." Brandon answered. Bloom did not bother asking what was happening at Cloud Tower. She knew what had happened there. Valtor had came and took over the school turning the students there into Zombies. Her friend Mirta had witness her best friend attacking Alphea, while she was trying to protect the school with the other fairies.
"Bloom, Bloom" Sky called her name then snapped his fingers in front of her face.
"What?" She asked. "We're leaving" He answered. leading her to the ship. The two walked over to the ship. The ride was peaceful until Bloom's phone rang again.
"More family update?" Riven asked.
"Hel-" Bloom said before being cut off by: "OMGBLOOMICAN'TBELIEVEYOU'RECOMINGHOMEWEHAVESOMUCHTHINGSTOCATCHUPONIHAVETHISSCHEDULEOFTHINGSWEHVETODOTOGETHEROVERTHEBREAK" A high pitched voice screamed from the other line. Bloom moved the phone away from her ears that even the boys could hear it screaming. They all looked at each other exchanging glances.
"Ok I can't understand what you're saying, Katy," Bloom said quietly not wanting to disturb the peaceful ride but the voice on the other line kept rambling on and on about her life.
"KATY" Bloom yelled grabbing the boys' attention.
"Shut up." Bloom said.
"What?" Her cousin asked on the phone.
"Look I'm busy right now but we can talk about this when I get home. I gotta go now." Bloom said quietly.
"Ok but one question. Why are you talking quietly?" Katy asked.
"I have friends near me that are listening in right now ok bye." Bloom said.
"Bye" Katy said and hung up the phone.
"So who was that?" Riven asked.
"Katy my cousin." Bloom answered.
"By that screaming she seemed eager to hear from you." Timmy said.
"Yah we're really close almost like sisters, she's my best friend on Earth. We've been that way since we were young." Bloom said.
"Ok here we are Alphea." Sky said as he and Timmy were landing the ship on the quad.
"Thank you guys." Bloom said.
"No problem, Sky and I will come by when we have the gadgets all set. In the meantime just continue school." Timmy said.
"Ok. I'll talk to my parents and see if they can help out as well." Bloom said. The specialists nodded.
"Oh yah and one more thing no one can know about this except for the teachers, meaning the winx club and the pixies can't know about this." Brandon said. "Ok" Bloom said leaving the ship. She watched the ship take off again then walked in the school where she would begin to lie to her friends.
