Musa POV

"Hey girls, what's this I hear about the most popular fairies ever returning to Alfea?" Someone knocks at the door.

"Roxy!" We squeal as the animal fairy enters our room and rush to give her a hug all at once.

"Hey!" She giggles, trying to hug the six of us at the one time.

"Come sit down," Stella grabs her hand and pulls her to sit down beside us all, "we have so much to tell you."

"Oh?" Roxy sits down, a smile slowly spreading across her face.

After a while of catching up, we eventually get to the most important point. I shake my head, "we have no idea what's going on. Fairies are disappearing left and right."

"Yes I heard. I knew a few of the poor girls," the animal fairy frowns, "I knew sooner or later you would show up."

"And what about us?"

The doors swing open once again and six tiny, floating figures are seen in the doorway. At once, we run to our pixies, and I noticed that Roxy had also brought Artu along, he barked in excitement upon seeing the pixies.

"We missed you!" Amore is the first to speak, and we all smile at her.

"We missed you too," Stella giggles as her pixie lands on her shoulder.

Not long after, Artu nudges the door open, and the pets also come flooding in, two great surprises in one day! I thought, smiling.

"I hate to interrupt-" Tecna runs over to the table in the corner with her laptop on top, which we now noticed was bleeping, "-aha!"

"What? Did you find something?" Stella, behind us all and unable to see the screen, stands as high on her toes as she possibly can.

"Here, we can see a few pink dots-"

"That's Earth!" Stella exclaims, finally able to see the screen and points to the planet.

"Yes," Tecna nods, "anyway, these pink dots represent matches in the magic traces I scanned and they trace back to-" she taps a few buttons on the screen and the map begins to zoom in.

I gasp, "no way!"

"Gardenia!" How convenient.

"Wow," Roxy laughs, "I don't know if I should be happy or worried."

"This is the only place, Tecna?" Aisha asks and Tecna types in something else, causing the map to zoom out again.

"Yeah, look, the only few dots are here, and when I do this-" she zooms in again, "-they are all located very close to each other in Gardenia."

"We need to tell Miss Faragonda now!" Bloom motions Tecna to grab her computer and we all rush out of the room, followed by a trail of pixies and pets.

"My, what a coincidence," the Headmistress raises her eyebrows in amusement at the computer screen, "well, what are you waiting for? I say you should get over there immediately!"

We all agree and make our way out of the office.

"Wow, it feels great to be back," Bloom smiles as we arrive in Gardenia.

"We only left a few days ago!" Flora giggles.

"Yeah, but still," Bloom shrugs and laughs with the rest of us.

"So where do we start?" Stella asks.

"We just got here," I laugh, "but, I guess, we should find a way to disguise ourselves. If our culprit, or culprits, realise that we're here it could cause problems."

"How about we take over Love and Pet again?" Aisha suggests, "I know we handed it over to some of Roxy's friends temporarily to let us have a break, but I'm sure they'd let us have it back for a while."

"Yeah," Bloom nods, "we did say it was only for a little while. Besides, we paid them! I'm sure they'd be okay with it."

"Then it's settled, we will work undercover at Love and Pet while we try to solve this problem," Roxy nods.

We turn to Roxy, "you'll be helping?"

"Of course! I want to be involved this time," she smiles.

We could definitely do with her help, I thought, nodding in agreement.

We make our way to the busy shop, since it was a Saturday it was even more busy than usual. We were dodging shoppers left and right, trying to get to the front desk.

"Hey!" Roxy calls out to her friend working at the till who looks up, smiles and waves at her. She then turns to us, "I'll go and explain the situation, sort things out, wait here."

As she walks away, Bloom continues to watch her as she talks to the worker, "she really knows how to run things here, huh?"

"She's completely different from when we met her," Flora giggles, "she's all grown up!"

Stella rolls her eyes, "it's only been a few years!"

Aisha nods, "maybe, but Roxy really has evolved. Especially in her magic after attending Alfea these past few years."

We barely noticed Roxy approaching us, "what you guys laughing about?"

After a few moments of silence, I chuckle before replying, "nothing important. Did you get things sorted?"

"We're all good to go!" She smiles, clasping her hands together excitedly.

The seven of us talk to Roxy's friends, explaining the situation and telling them that we won't be here for too long, only until we solve our case. Even though we spent a lot of our time on Earth, it was never permanent as we travelled a lot, so we needed trusted people to watch over the shop and keep magic alive on Earth.

Also, we may have used our Believix powers to keep their intentions good. Roxy didn't need to know that, though.

"Well ladies," Stella smirks, "I think we know what this means!"

We looked at her, then looked at each other, and looked at Stella again. I shrug, "uh- what does it mean?"

"A Love and Pet makeover!" She claps excitedly, could you be any more clique, Stell?

She immediately hushes our protests, "this place needs new furniture! Don't worry, it won't take long, and you all know I know what's best."

Before we can protest again, Stella waves her hands and the shop is transformed. It looked similar to when we opened the shop which made me feel extremely nostalgic. The new workers had changed it quite a bit to fit modern style, but we much preferred the original.

"That's better," the Princess smiles in triumph.
