"What the...?"

"Where are we?" asked Tony

"I have no idea" stated Steve

"Why don't we ask her?" asked Thor pointing behind his brother.

Everyone turned round to see a familiar girl.

"Is that Izabella?" questioned Loki

"This must be Alfea" realised Nat

"Izabella?"

Izabella didn't seem to notice the team standing behind her, suddenly she looked round and looked right at them but it was like she looked right through them.

"She looked right through us" stated Clint

"She can't see us"

The bus arrived and Izabella got on with her luggage, she paid for a one way to Alfea college, the team followed her onto the bus and off they went.

Half an hour later they arrived at Alfea, Izzy got off and the team again, followed her.

"Hello Miss Griselda"

"Hello Princess Izabella of Domino" said Griselda as she ticked Izzy's name off on her clipboard.

"You have a nice summer?"

"Don't try to suck up Princess, off with you"

Izabella walked off heading for her dorm room.

"She was prickly" said Clint

"Izabella?"

Izzy turned round to see Miss Faragonda

"Miss Faragonda, Its good to see you"

"And you, as you know the Rose ball is in a few days"

"Yeah"

"It seems this year your mother has accepted our invitation"

"Seriously?"

"Yes and as you know you and Stella are the only Princesses at the school which means your mothers will be the only queens in attendance"

"So everything has to be perfect?"

"Precisely, I want you and your friends planning this ball"

"We would be honoured"

"I'll leave you to it then"

Miss Faragonda walked away leaving Izabella with a lot to think about.

Izabella walked into her dorm and saw she was the first of her friends to arrive, she went over to her bed and started to unpack.

Izabella turned round to see a small floating figure, a figure she knew quite well.

"Lucy!" said Izabella as she hugged her pixie

"Izzy!"

"I missed you"

"I missed you too....Ooooo, who's the boy?"

"What?"

"The bracelet, green really isn't your colour and you know that, so the only reason you would wear it is if someone special gave it to you, so what's his name?"

"Oh she's good" said Tony

"There is no boy"

"I'm sensing a but"

"But, there is... a man"

"Tell me everything!"

"Its none of you business, silly pixie"

"Stubborn Fairy"

"Izzy, we have arrived!" shouted a familiar voice from the main room

Izabella ran out to see Stella and Flora.

"AHHHH" Screamed everyone

"Its so good to see you!" squealed Stella "Who's the guy?"

"You haven't changed Stella"

That night Stella, Flora, Musa, Izabella and Tecna were sitting in the main room catching up over pizza and soda.

"So we're in charge of the Rose ball?" asked Musa

"Yep, because this year not one but two Queens are coming"

"What is the Rose ball?" asked Nat

"I don't know?" answered Loki

"I don't want to be a part of it" said Musa

"Musa?"

"The Rose ball is a mother daughter thing"

"We still need music and who better than the fairy of music" stated Stella

"I said No!" said Musa as she stormed off to her room.

"You never know when to stop do you Stella?" said Izzy as she ran after Musa

Izabella walked into Musa and Tecna's room and sat on her bed next to Musa.

"You okay?"

"When was the last time you saw your mom Iz?"

"About five months ago, we had a big fight"

"About what?"

"She wanted me to take my sisters place as crowned Princess and I never wanted that, being the next Queen was Daphne's thing not mine"

"Be glad you can still have fights with her"

"You know Stella, she didn't mean anything by it"

"I know"

"Are you going to go to the ball?"

"No"

"If you change your mind your welcome to join me and my mom, if you want"

"Thanks Iz"

KNOCK KNOCK

"Hey Musa, can we talk?" asked Stella from the doorway

"Give her a chance okay?" whispered Izzy

Musa nodded

Izzy got up to leave but stopped in front of Stella and said "Don't make this worse". Izzy walked off to her room.

"Night Iz" said Flora who was Izzy's roommate

"Night"

Izzy clapped twice and the lights went out, the dorm fell silent as the girls fell asleep.

"What do we do now?" asked Clint

"I don't know, we wait I guess" answered Steve

The next day Izzy was the only fairy in the dorm still asleep, but that was about to change.

"Wake up!" shouted Lucy

Izzy shot up in bed "What do you want Lucy?" said Izzy rubbing her eyes.

"The Rose ball is tomorrow and you haven't planned a single thing, so GET UP!"

Izzy got out of bed and put on a simple red dress that went to her knees and some black converse shoes.

"Girls!"

All the girls met up in the main room.

"We have a ball to plan, Flora your on decorations, Stella you and Aisha are on food, Tecna your on Music, lets go"

The girls got to work planning this ball in the banquet hall, Flora dressed the pillars in vines protruding with roses. Tecna got a little help from Musa with the music and Stella and Aisha got to work figuring out the banquet.

"Looking good Flora"

"This place is beautiful" said Steve

"You said it Steve" said Nat

"Its missing something" said Izzy to no one in particular. "I got it"

Izabella used her magic to create a chandelier. "Perfect"

Izabella walked to the edge of the room and created a horse shoe shaped table, she also used her magic to place the place cards. There had been a little tension lately so she had to place certain mothers and daughters away from others.

"It looks amazing in here girls" said Miss Faragonda

"Its still missing something" "Oh I know, Flora?"

"Yeah?"

Izzy walked up to her and whispered something in her ear.

"Got it"

Flora used her magic to place pink roses at every place setting.

"Perfect"

"WE HAVE A PROBLEM!" shouted Stella "I HAVE NOTHING TO WEAR"

"Stella you brought your entire closet with you from Solaria, I think you can find something" replied Tecna

"People have seen me in those clothes before, I cant wear it twice"

"Why don't you girls go to Magix and..."

"Thank you, thank you" squealed Stella "Come on girls, we're going shopping!"

Three hours later and everyone had found the perfect dress everyone except Izabella.

"And I thought I was indecisive" said Stella

"You are" replied Flora

Izabella came out of the changing room and stood in front of her friends.

"Well?"

"..." Stella was speechless

"I think that's Stella for Its perfect" said Aisha

"Yeah, perfect" said Stella as she snapped out of it

"She's beautiful" said Loki

"That she is Brother"

Loki gave Thor 'The look'

"Relax brother, I make no moves towards your lady"

The next night

"Come on Iz We'll be late!" shouted Stella from the main room

Izabella was putting on her Tiara and earrings when Musa walked into her room.

"Your procrastinating"

"Am not"

"Are so"

"I can't do this Musa" said Izzy as she at on her bed.

"Why?"

"I can't face her, I said such awful things to her"

"To your mom?"

Izzy nodded

"She's your mother, I'm sure she has forgiven you by now"

"You don't know her like I do, she'll hate me, I hurt her, badly"

"No, don't cry you'll ruin your make up...Look if she loves you, all you have to do is apologise"

"I can't"

"Look at me Iz"

Izzy looked up at Musa

"Could you do this If your boyfriend was here?"

"Probably"

Loki smiled

"He is here" said Musa pointing at Izzy's bracelet "And he's always here" Musa pointed at Izzy's heart.

"Sigh* Your right, I can do this"

"Yes you can"

"Thank you Musa"

"Anytime"

"Are you coming or not Iz?" asked Stella popping her head into the room.

"I'm coming"

The girls made their way to the line of girls waiting to be presented, Stella and Izzy went to the front of the line, as they did so Izzy locked eyes with her mom, she immediately looked down.

"Presenting Queen Luna and Princess Stella of Solaria"

"Presenting Queen Marion and Princess Izabella of Domino"

Izzy and her mother walked down the stairs together and took their seats next to Luna and Stella. Izzy was nervous to say the least, she thought her mother was still mad at her.

"Izabella?"

"Mother?"

"I'm...I'm sorry...I'm sorry I pushed you to take Daphne's place, it was wrong of me"

"I'm sorry...about what I said, I was scared, I didn't mean it"

"Scared?...Of what?"

"I never wanted to be Queen, that was always Daphne's future, It was never supposed to be mine and I guess I freaked out"

"I understand, I was scared too, when my mother told me I was to be married to the future King, But once I met your father, I fell for him and it seems you have fallen for someone too"

Izzy fiddled with her bracelet.

"What's his name?"

"Loki"

"An old name...do you love him?"

"I...I do"

"I love you too Iz" said Loki, not that she herd him.

"Good, I'm glad you are happy"

"Thank you mother"

The team had been watching the last few days, watching how interesting and stressful Izabella's life really is and it seems their time in the magic dimension was coming to a close as a bright light engulfed them and they were back at the tower.

"That was interesting"

"I'm glad she made up with her mother" said Clint

"Me too" said Tony

The team went back to their lives, their lives of going on missions and missing their fairy friend. Loki often wondered what his girlfriend was up too, he missed her very much.
