Summary: Bloom packs up and prepares to go home.
Last time: She watched the ship take off again then walked in the school where she would begin to lie to her friends.
~Alfea~
Bloom was in her room packing up for home. It was Friday afternoon and classes were over. Her friends were hanging out in the living room area outside her room. The pixies were out with the fairies chatting. She lied and said she needed to make a long phone call. Bloom paced as quietly as she could so her friends wouldn't figure out she's leaving.
"Bloom we're leaving" Flora said poking her head in the room. Bloom had quickly shoved her suitcase under her bed just as her friend was coming in.
"You need anything?" Her friend asked.
"No don't worry I'm fine. I'll just stay here and catch up on school work that I've missed." Bloom replied walking Flora over towards the door.
"Ok well we're leaving." Flora said. She opened the door to leave the dorm when she found Sky and Timmy standing in the doorway.
"What are two doing here?" Musa asked.
"We were on our way back to Redfountain when I decided to stop by for a visit and needed to talk to Bloom about something." Sky said quickly.
"And you?" Layla asked.
"Back up incase Sky breaks some bad news to Bloom." Timmy said.
"What bad news?" Bloom asked from the doorway of her room.
"Well where're going now." Stella said leading the others out of the room. Bloom walked back into her room and pulled out suitcase from under the bed.
"Keko why don't you see if I have everything." Bloom told her bunny.
"You won't have everything until you have your gadgets." Sky said.
"Right." Bloom said sitting on her bed.
"Ok first thing a watch." Timmy said handing the regular looking watch.
"Wow a digital watch that tells time." Bloom said looking at the thing. She pushed one of the buttons ad watched a holographic screen come on.
"Well we don't have that functioned in our watches on Earth." Bloom said.
"We'll be contacting you with this for important news and information." Timmy said.
"You'll also can contact is if needed too as well." Sky added.
"Ok next?" Bloom asked.
"Give me your cellphone" Timmy said.
"My what?" she asked.
"Cellphone it's going to upgraded." Timmy explained.
"OK" Bloom replied grabbing her phone from the nightstand and throwing it over to him.
"That's pretty much it. More will come if we feel that you need it during the mission." Sky said.
"Great now what's the bad news?" She asked.
"Well it will be a reason why we came over but we need to come up with something." Sky answered.
"Ok that should be easy." Bloom said.
"What if we did a fake break up?" He asked.
"Ok I could use that excuse to say I'm going home to talk to my parents on how to get over a break up." Bloom said.
"Alright and I'll be the one that said we should break up." Sky said.
"Ok I'll tell the girls about it and if they plan on coming over and talking to you I'll give one of the other boys a call to give you a warning." Bloom said.
"So what's the excuse for you two breaking up?" Timmy asked from inside the room.
"I'll just say that you lost interest in me and wanted to have a chance to date other girls while in school you know before you become King." Bloom said.
"Ok and if your friends do come over to kill me I'll just need to prepare to defend myself.
"That's what the five minute for." Bloom said.
"Ok now what?" Sky asked quickly.
"Well here's your phone." Timmy said throwing it to Bloom.
"It looks the same." Bloom said.
"Well if you look through the settings it lets you look things up and changes to look like a regular cellphone from Earth." Timmy explained pressing one of the buttons on the side. Bloom watched her cellphone to change into a regular flip phone.
"Wow looks like my old cell phone from when I first came here." Bloom said.
"Bloom we're back." A voice said from outside her room.
"Well looks like time to go." Timmy said.
"Right bye Bloom call you later." Sky said leaving the room. The girls waited for the boys to leave before questioning on what had happened.
"So Bloom what was the bad news?" Tecna asked sternly.
"Well it wasn't that bad as it seems " Bloom started slowly. She noticed the other girl looking at her.
"Sky came over to say that he wanted to break up with me." She said slowly.
"And you're ok with that?" Stella asked.
"Well yah I agreed to it." Bloom answered.
"Yah you wouls have to." Musa said.
"Come on girls let's go." Layla ordered.
"Where?" Flora asked.
"Redfountain to talk to Sky of course." She answered.
"Right behind you." Stella said as she and the other girls marched out of the dorm. Bloom waited for the door to close before pulling out her cellphone and dialing Brandon's number.
~Redfountain~
"So what was the 'bad news' you and Bloom made up while you were over there.?" Brandon asked.
"I said we broke up." Sky answered. The other boys who were in the room stopped and looked at him.
"What? We didn't really break up." Sky said.
"You know the other girls do anything to keep her happy." Helia said.
"It includes the girl coming over and yelling at you until you get back together with Bloom." Riven added in.
"Look Bloom is going to call one of you guys and give us a warning." Sky said as Brandon's cellphone went off.
"Which would be now." Brandon said looking at the caller id on his phone.
"Hello?" Brandon asked.
"Brandon it's me Bloom I'm going along with Sky's plan and the girls are coming over now." Bloom's voice said into the phone.
"Don't worry we're going to back him up." Brandon said.
"Thanks, bye." her voice said from the other line.
"No prob bye" Brandon replied and the two hung up.
"That was Bloom the girls are coming." He informed his friends.
"You know we're going to back you up on this." Riven said. Soon came a loud knock on the door.
"Must be them." Helia said.
"Of course who else knocks that loud on a door." Timmy replied.
"I'll get it" Nebu said walking over to the door. After unlocking the door the girls barged in and walked over to Sky.
"Come in?!" Nebu said watching the girls storm in.
"Can we help you guys?" Riven asked. Ignoring him Stella started yelling.
"WHAT DID YOU DO TO BLOOM?!" She yelled.
"Easy Stella we can't disturb anyone." Brandon said.
"I DON'T CARE! THAT JERK HURT MY BEST FRIEND!" She continued screaming.
"Stella." Brandon called her name.
"Bloom doesn't want to be with us she wants to be left alone. it's all because Sky broke up with her." Stella said and started to cry in her boyfriends arm.
"Sky why did you suddenly decide to break up with Bloom?" Layla asked.
"I didn't have the same feelings for her as I used to and beside I want to be available to go out with other girls before I graduate." Sky answered.
"Thanks for your honest opinion." Flora said.
"Yah sorry for barging in." Tecna said smiling.
"Come on Stella let's leave them alone." Musa said dragging her friend out of the room.
"Hold on one more thing." Stella said walking back in.
"What are you doing?" Flora asked as the girls turned around. They watched Stella walk up to Sky slap him in the face.
"That's for being a jerk." She said.
"Ok Stella you guys really need to go now." Brandon said walking her out of the room.
"Stella did you really need to Sky that hard?" Musa asked.
"No but he needs to know not to mess with my friends." Stella said walking down the hallway with the other girls beside her.
"I have t agree with the guys on this but if Bloom and Sky don't want to be a couple then maybe we should leave them alone." Layla said.
"Stella Layla's right we can't force them back together just because they look cute together." Flora said.
"If Sky wants to be with another girl let him." Musa said.
"Fine but if Sky gets a new girlfriend she's not joining the team." Stella said walking away.
~The Specialists~
Back inside the dorm the boys were busy healing Sky form the black and blue mark that Stella had given him.
"Ok so Sky when you and Bloom planned that fake break up did you think that Stella would come in here and slap you hard like that?" Riven asked trying not to laugh out loud.
"No we didn't think it would go this far." Sky answered.
"Well maybe you two should have planned it more carefully." Brandon said.
"Yah you know the girls are always protecting each other.
"It's like this rule they have." Helia said.
"Leave him alone you guys the plan was good. They knew the girls would becoming over they just did not plan Stella's mood swing to kick in at that time." Timmy said.
"Hey Stella doesn't.." Brandon started to say before thinking about his girlfriend.
"You're she does." He said realizing his friend was right.
"So how does a girl slapping you hurt so bad besides the sting?" Nebu asked.
"It wasn't so much the sting it was more of the sharp nails she had on." Sky said touching the scratch.
"Well the girls did get their nails done today." Helia said. The others looked at her.
"Got it from Flora." He answered. The others said nothing but just nodded.
~Alfea~
Back at Alfea Bloom finished pacing up from home and hid her bags under her bed.
"We're back." Stella said.
"Hey how did it go?" Bloom asked.
"Not bad." Stella said and went in her room.
"So you feeling alright?" Flora asked. "Yah I'm fine." Bloom answered. "That's good." Musa said.
~The Next Day~
The next day Bloom waited for her friends to leave before pulling out her things from under her bed. She pulled on a sweatshirt , jeans and a pair of sneakers before the boys and the teachers came up to the room.
"Come in." Bloom called towards the door hearing it knocked. Sky opened the door leading the others into Bloom's room.
"Hey" Bloom said grabbing a notebook and pulling out a blank pice of paper. She grabbed a pen and quickly scribbled some words on it then signed her name.
"How does this sound?" Bloom asked showing Sky the note. He quickly read the note.
"It's good but will the girls fall for it?" Sky replied.
"Let me read it." Ms. Faragonda said. She quickly read the note.
"I'll explain why you went home this will work." She said handing Bloom back the letter.
"Now to put it somewhere for the others to see." Bloom said. She grabbed tape and taped the note to the door of her room.
"Think they'll not notice it?" Riven asked. Bloom rolled her eyes and ignored him.
"So what's the weather going to be like if we ever need to visit?" Timmy asked.
"Cold you'll definitely need a jacket, hat, boots, and possibly gloves. The same type of weather if you were going on a ski trip." Bloom said closing her closet door. She had only packed her winter things, school work and pictures of her and her friends for the trip.
"All set?" Brandon asked.
"Yep." Bloom answered.
"Kiko tagging along?" Helia asked watching Bloom's blue bunny hop across the room.
"Of course if I left him behind they would know something's up." Bloom said.
"Ok one more thing you might need." Timmy said putting a small orb in Bloom's hand.
"Looks like a bouncy ball." Bloom said.
"Well it isn't drop it on the floor and it creates a sound baarrier in the room your in so no one can listen through the walls." Timmy explained.
"It also blocks any window for those who try to see what's happening." Saladin added.
"Thanks I think it'll come in handy. I have some cousins who are pretty nosey in my business." Bloom explained. She looked over at Sky and noticed a scratch on Sky's face. "Sky what happened?" she asked.
"Oh when the girls came over to talk to me about our "breakup", Stella slapped me and her sharp nails did a little clawing as well." Sky said.
"I'll talk to Stella about it later." Bloom said.
"That would be a good idea." Sky said. "
So how will you guys get to me since I temporarily blocked Sky's phone number?" Bloom asked quickly.
"Don't worry one of us will call." Timmy replied.
"OK well I guess I better be going." Bloom said. Ms. Faragonda opened a portal for Bloom that led her back home. Bloom turned around and waved bye before she entered the portal and went home.
