"What's about the gloom, Bloom?" Musa asked. It was a month after spring break. We were seated in mine and Stella's room, discussing our Holidays. I knew what she was talking about. I went to Earth to visit Bloom and meet her parents, since I haven't and Stella did. Also My Parents and Siblings are on the other side of the Universe taking care of business. I didn't feel like going, so decided to sit this one out.

"You're sad that spring break is over?" Flora assumed sweetly.

"No, It's not that. It's just. . .nothing." Bloom answered with a sigh. She was lying on my bed with us sitting around her.

"What's up?" Stella puzzled. She than looked at me waiting for me to answer, but I looked away pretended like I don't see her. 'Hey! if Bloom doesn't want to talk about it, I won't either.' I thought as Bloom Answered.

"You ever feel like you don't know where you belong?" Bloom asked, sitting up, "I always thought I knew, but then something happened over spring break while I was home, and now I feel all turned around. Sorry to be mopey."

"Don't apologize." Tecna reassured.

"Tell us what's bothering you." Stella suggested.

"Yeah, we're your friends, Bloom, you can tell us anything." Flora comforted as Bloom picked up Kiko and Hugged him. I than gave a Sympathetic Look at her, knowing what she went through, Since I was there to witness it.

"I know, Flora. . ." Bloom sighed. After a Lot of thinking, Bloom started.

It was morning. Sunlight shines under the door like a ghoul's grin, yet gives the shutters a halo of golden rays. I arrived on earth 4 days after spring break started. Since, My parents had business on the far side of world and took my siblings with them, My Brother Ryan was having a fit that I couldn't suffer with them, while my sister Fay was really excited to go.  I also went to go check up with my Kitsune and she was really excited to see me again I wanted to take her with me but Bloom told me that seeing a 9 tail fox is not normal on earth so I had to leave her behind.

I also meet Bloom's parents and put on my best 'Meeting a Friend Parent Smile.' It's the smile that I used when I meet a friend Parent and want them to like. Lucky For me it work. They allowed me to stay in the guest bedroom for the rest of Spring break.

After taking a good bath and doing my morning routine, I started to get a bit of deja vu, this has only been happen since I got to earth. Which is really strange. After I put my clothes on for today I exited the bathroom, as I did, I meet Bloom, "Morning, Bloom."

"Good Morning, Iris." Bloom smiled, but it faltered a bit. I then start to noticed something was off, to be honest if I was the only one that Was feeling this way. I would just sweep it to side and think that I'm overthinking, but I can't this time. She than sighed before talking to me, "Um...Hey, Iris. . .Do you feel a bit. . .strange in any way?" She asked. I then simply nodded at her as we climbed down the stairs.

"Girls, Will you both please help me in the kitchen?" Vanessa questioned, coming in front of me. Bloom and I glanced at each other. Bloom looking a little confused, but nevertheless, we headed for the kitchen.

"Of Course, Vanessa." I answered, with one of my best smile. We both followed Vanessa to the Kitchen. Bloom was chopping some carrots and I was assigned to chop up some tomato's.

"Bloom, honey, I wanted to talk to you about something that's been on my mind for a while." Vanessa admitted while keeping the soup spoon down and walking towards Bloom. I was debating or not should I stay, because by the sound of her tone this is a serous subject.

"K. Go ahead." Bloom nodded, putting her sole concentration on the carrots.

"It's about when we adopted you." Vanessa mentioned hesitantly. I froze on the spot from cutting the tomato's. Honestly, I was started to get uncomfortable but something tells me that she wanted me to listen or else she would had just called Bloom to help in the kitchen, and I'm not just saying this because, I'm nosey.

"I know, it was the greatest day of your life." Bloom stated, sounding amused. I had a feeling that Bloom is trying to avoid the subject at hand, but who wouldn't. I mean this is a delicate subject.

"Well of course it was the greatest day of my life!" Vanessa smiled as she took over the carrots and sliced them quickly, "You were such a cute, beautiful baby! You grew up so fast. . ." While they were talking, My nose picked up something that smelled like toxic. . .Like something was burning. Wait! Something is burning! I should know that, I have been in the kitchen with Stella before. 

"Um. . .Vanessa!" I exclaimed, "Something's burning!"

She gasped and turned around, "Oh, the roast!" We all looked at the stove to see it erupting into flames. 'Well I guess, we ain't having that for dinner.' I thought to myself as Bloom stepped up.

"Stand back, Mom! I'll get it!" Bloom cautioned as she raised her hand, "Flamous Extinguishus!"  Bloom casted a spell, waving her hand sideways and the flame extinguished, but the smoke remained. I then signaled for Bloom to take care of her mother and I approached the smoke. To be honest I thought with my trip to earth I wouldn't have to used magic that much, but I guess not.

"Honey!" Vanessa worried, "Iris, be careful!"

"Don't worry, Vanessa, For once I know what I'm doing." I replied with a reassurance smile as I raised my hand to the flames. "L'ossigeno e sparito" I chanted and all the smoke started to vanished into the palm of my hands. I then sighed to myself for a second as Bloom gave her mom a glass of water.

"What do you mean 'for once you know what you are doing,' you always knows what you are doing when the situation needs you." Bloom compliment with a thumbs up and Vanessa gave me a grateful smile.

"Hey, Not Always." I replied to the red head as she turned to her Mom, "Are you okay?" Bloom asked. 

"Yes! That was amazing, both of you!"  Vanessa complimented, wiping her face with a blue cloth.

"Sorry about the pot roast, Vanessa. I could always use a little magic to fix it, if you want?" I offered with an apologetic smile.

"Never mind the pot roast! You just saved us!" Vanessa exclaimed, not affected by the lost of the pot roast. I than just smile at her compliment since I didn't know how to reply.

"So, what do you say we take the rest of the afternoon off and just order a pizza tonight?" Bloom smiled, hugging her mom. We instantly agreed and the room was once again filled with chatter, and by mostly I mean Vanessa wanted to get to know me better.

It was the next day when Bloom said she wanted to go on a bike ride with me. She was worried about not having another bike, but I reassured her by summoning my own from my realm. As we were biking I noticed a lot of difference from our worlds, None of the cars we past was flying or when I look at the sky's there was no Dragon's being trained or Children playing with mystical beast. It was odd to me there was no magic at all. Gardenia is truly a small town.

Me and Bloom started to have a bet to see who can ride the bike without holding the handles the longest and it was fun. The cool breeze that was going through my hair was peaceful.

"Keep both hands on the handle bars, young ladies." We heard Mike, Bloom's father, warn us.

We both gasped and immediately followed his instructions.

"Hey, Dad!"

"Hi, Mike!" We greeted with a smile.

"Did you two sleep till noon?" He asked, humor clearly evident in his voice.

"I would had slept even longer, if Bloom didn't wake me up." I giggled as Bloom also joined in.

"Hey, there!" Mike's partner greeted us and we greeted him back.

"Well then, see you both tonight!" Mike smiled before they drove off.

"Bye, have a good day, Dad!" Bloom called out, waving as I smiled. It's kinda refreshing having someone other than your parents that care's about you. I've only been here for a few days and already they treating me like one of there own.

As we riding around the neighborhood that Bloom called, 'Mitzi's neighborhood.' She also explained to me that Mitzi is always rude to her and likes to torment Bloom every chance she get. I normally don't judge people by listening to others but by the sound of it this Mitzi's girls is a witch. 'Hopefully we don't come across her while we are here.' I thought simply but right when I thought that we heard a voice.

"Well, Look who it is." Mitzi smirked, standing in front of her door. This time it's not my fault, I didn't jinx it this time.

"Mitziii. . ." Bloom drawled out, "Hello. . ." Well at least Bloom is kind enough to greet her, I would had just flat out ignored her. 

"And You are?" She questioned, pointing at me. I was really debating or not to make a branch 'accidentally' hit her on the head for pointing at a stranger she doesn't know, but I decided not, because like Felix would say, 'that's not very fairy of me.' so I decided to just do my 'Calm and Gentle' smile that I throw at people I do not like.

"I'm Iris, I go to the same school as Bloom." I introduced myself, which by the way felt like against my will. It seem's like she only wanted to know my name because immediately after I said it she spoke.

"So, where have you been?" Mitzi asked, crossing her hands in front of her chest. I dropped my smile and rolled my eyes at her, while waiting for Bloom to answer her. I realized that the Human world would be so dang peaceful if people would learned to mind their business when it doesn't concerned or harm them. 

"Away. . ." Bloom answered and we prepared to leave, In my opinion, we should had never stopped in the first place.

"Duh. . ." Mitzi remarked, marching towards us and standing in front of our bikes, successfully blocking our path. 'I knew I should had dropped that Branch on her when I had the chance!' I thought to myself as I glared at the girl wondering or not should I run her over or not with my bike.

"Wait! There's a rumor that you were sent away to reform school." Mitzi exclaimed.

"Huh?" I questioned, getting on my bike property already deciding that I'm going to run this girl over, if she doesn't stop investigating my friend like she's part of the Fairy Police.

"Ugh! That is so ridiculous!" Bloom groaned with annoyance.

'Calm down Iris, be patience.' I think to myself, as the Human Witch continues on. 

"What is it, then? Did they ship you off to Military School, or to one of those other schools for rejects and outcasts?" Mitzi cackled at her own absurb question. I then put one of my feet on the pedal and before I take off, The little patience I had snap in two like a rope. Before I could even stop myself I already decided I need to shut this girl down.  Honestly I don't even know how Bloom was able to deal with this for so long.

"Hey, Mitzi. . ." I started, gaining her attention, pointing to her like she did me earlier with an attitude. "No one is laughing but you,  I don't know how your life been so far and I'm too annoyed to even care, but if this is your idea of entertainment, I think you should pick up an hobby or two, if you still got time to run your mouth to others. Now, that I got that off my chest excuse us while we go enjoy our lives and I hope we won't see you again. Bye!" I signaled to Bloom to lets go since I'm already riding away with a annoyed expression. I look back at the girl seeing her gasping and irritated while Bloom right next to me is Laughing.

Man I really am Protective of my friends I then looked to the red head and says, "Don't tell Stella about what happened." I whispered, all Bloom could do is nodded and smile widely.

─── ∙ ~εïз~ ∙ ───

─── ∙ ~εïз~ ∙ ───

I noticed that Mitzi's words was bothering Bloom because she seemed lost in thought as we were cycling through a different lan. While we were cycling I noticed a Spirit-like thingy floating above someone. I quickly halt and did a double take to make sure I'm seeing what I'm seeing I looked towards Bloom way to see that she is seeing it to and not just me.

By the expression on Bloom face she was also seeing it. "Do you also see it?" Bloom asked, totally confused and rubbing her eyes.

"I wish I didn't. . ."I replied, while also nodding in agreement. "Are we seeing his Aura? I mean I have the ability to see's people mood but it only works if I activate it. This ability Never does it on it's own and It's also never the kind of person they are, I just used my gut for that kind of stuff...Why is this happening?" I questioned as Bloom Shrugged. We stared at a woman, who was crossing the road in front of us, and I could see her aura, too.

"Hey, didn't you get the memo read? Don't you know it's rude to stare?" The woman's aura scolded as me and Bloom and I apologized as we walked away. 

"I think I have an idea as to why this is happening. . ." Bloom stated as we cycled to Vanessa's flower shop, "Maybe it's because we've strengthened our Winx at Alfea."

"Yeah, I think you're right." I agreed, while Bloom still looked lost in her thoughts. Soon, we reached Vanessa's shop and saw a Black limo parked right out front. Inside the Limo sat a blonde limo driver. I can't put my foot on it, but the way the Limo driver looked at us made me start to get suspicious, but I decided to let it slide.

"Well, I am very excited about this. Why don't you just bring back the last form and--" I heard Vanessa speaking and shaking hands with two men as we pushed open the glass doors and entered the shop, "Bloom, Iris," She stated, sounding delighted to see us, "I'd like you to meet some people. This is Mr. Bonner," She introduced, pointing to a brown-hair man, "And Mr Bonner," She acknowledged, now pointing to the elder grey-haired man.

"Hello! How do you do?" They greeted politely with a posh accent.

"Huh? Business partners?" Bloom questioned, looking utterly shocked.

"Your mother has agreed to sell her flower shop to us." The elder Mr. Bonner cleared Bloom's confusion.

"Well, not entirely. They will have the actual shop, but we will all be on the shop name." Vanessa corrected.

"We can turn the shop into big chains of stores," The younger Mr. Bonner added. After he said that I started to have a bad feeling in my gut and for once I decided to follow it and look above and see their auras. Why am I not surprise that they are not who they say they are? "It's amazing how foolish people are when you promise them the world."

"We are going to make a bundle on this shop." The elder Mr. Bonner smirked darkly.

"Like I always say, people are like lollipops. Underneath, they are all suckers!" The younger one laughed evilly. Ain't you people too? I was going to 'accidentally' have the nearest pot to him fall on his head but decided not to because I didn't want Vanessa too worried and also it would be waste of a good flower pot. I then looked to the side of me and noticing Bloom also looking up, and from the expression on her face she also saw their true color's

"Bring that last form right back and we'll be all set!" Vanessa chirped and led them to the door. 'No, don't bring the last form matter of fact leave that thing at home.' I thought to myself as while crossing my arms.

"Sure thing!" They chimed and exited.

"Pretty exciting, isn't it? Your mother; a join owner of a company." Vanessa looked so excited when she said this to bloom, but the excitement faltered when she saw our expressions, "Girls?"

I then gave Bloom a knowing look that said she should be the one to tell her mother the truth, but instead of taking my advice she stammered, "Ugh, hey, do these go on the shelf?" She pointed towards some newly delivered flowers on the floor.

"Yeah," Vanessa answered. I knew she understand something was wrong, For some reasons mothers always know. I decided to help Bloom and crouched down and picked up the pot, "Honey, is everything alright?" she asked, walking towards Bloom. 

"Everything's great. Why wouldn't it be?" Bloom replied in a dry voice.

"Well, for one thing, neither you or Iris has congratulated me," She remarked sadly, "This partnership could be a very exciting opportunity for me!"

Bloom kept quiet, "Bloom I think you should just tell her, something bad might happen if you don't." I said, looking into Bloom's eyes. She seemed hesitant at first, but nod her head in agreement. "Mom, I don't think you should sell your shop. Those men are trying to take advantage of you." Bloom declared as I nodded in agreement.

"Taking advantage of me? What do you mean?" Vanessa questioned Flabbergasted.

"Well, I'm not exactly 100% sure, but. . ."

"But what, Bloom?"

"Vanessa, I believed Bloom and I have developed an ability to be able to see people's auras." I added, trying to clear her obvious confusion.

"Go on," She nodded.

"I think I can see their true nature or something," Bloom said.

"And is this something they taught you how to do at Alfea?" Vanessa inquired with a frown.

"Well, I have the ability to read a person mood at will but never to be able to see what kind of person they are, But for Bloom this only happened since. . .well today." I answered for myself and Bloom with an awkward smile. 

"How are you sure?" Vanessa started, but Bloom cut her off.

"Mom, these guys are trying to trick you. They are trying to steal your store!" Bloom exclaimed. We gasped as we heard a honk come outside that scared the heavens out me but what to the icing on the cake is when we saw the younger Mr. Bonner waving at us. . .creepily might I add.

─── ∙ ~εïз~ ∙ ───

─── ∙ ~εïз~ ∙ ───

The next day, the two Mr Bonners returned to Vanessa's store.

"I don't understand why you changed your mind, Vanessa." The younger Mr Bonner Claimed.

"Yes, why did you change your mind, Vanessa." Added the elder Mr Bonner.

"We had a deal, Vanessa." The Younger Mr Bonner repeated.

"You sent us to bring back the last form. Did something happen?" The elder Mr Bonner questioned. 'Betrayal happened that what!' I thought to myself as I cross my arms.

"No, nothing happened. I just realized I was getting over my head. I like things the way they are. Simple." Vanessa countered with a Smile.

"Well, this couldn't be simpler. You've already signed most of the forms. All you have to do is sign the last on, and then--" The elder Mr Bonner tried to convince Vanessa as he picked up the forms and pointed towards them.

"No, thank you! I like my business the way it is and I'm afraid I'm gonna have to keep it that way." Vanessa denied politely, standing her ground. At least she is still being polite to.

I watched as they both narrowed their eyes in annoyance, I was keeping a close eyes on there movements making sure they don't do anything to Vanessa, "Look, we want this shop, and we have plenty of ways of getting what we want." The younger Mr Bonner threatened. I then gave Vanessa a looked that said, 'Give me the sign and I'll take care of them for you,' But Vanessa placed a comforting hand on my shoulder that calmed me down a little.

"And what's that supposed to mean?" Vanessa asserted, folding her hands around her chest, looked unfazed. I watched in displeasure as their auras came growling out.

"Oh, nothing, It's just that. . There are other things that can be broken besides agreements. "The younger Mr Bonner's aura stated, my eyes darted towards his hands, which knocked down the rare flower pot, breaking and destroying it. The audacity of this Man! If Bloom didn't pat my back, I would had 'accidentally' Summon a Big Pot to hit him on the head because, it seems like his brain cells are no where in sight.

Vanessa gasped loudly, mumbling her favorite plant's name, which sound very expensive, too. "Oh, how clumsy of me!" The younger Mr Bonner gasped in a fake, apologetic tone. Their aura showed that they actually enjoyed Vanessa's misery.

"I've said what I had to say. Now, please leave, I have work to do." Vanessa affirmed, still in shock. She better than me because I would had told them to leave my shop and never returned.

"We'll be back." The younger Mr Bonner Clarified.

"This will be our shop one way or another." The elder Mr Bonner declared threateningly. 'Yeah in your dreams!' I thought as I shot both men a glared, as the young Mr Bonner simply smirked at me before departing. I never wanted to rip someone eye's out there eye sockets so bad.

"You both were right about those men." Vanessa agreed, still sad about her loss. 

"Hey, Mom, check out this trick my friend, Flora, taught me." Bloom said coming forward. I than just smiled knowing what she spell she is talking about, "She hates to see a plant with a broken home." Bloom said, I then nodded my head, Flower really do like plants and it makes sense, Since she is the fairy of nature. Light shone out of Bloom's palm and the broken plant returned to its natural beauty and Vanessa smiled delightedly. She went and Hugged Bloom and extended an arm towards me. I then just smiled at the both of them feeling honored and gratefully as I joined the hug.

The next few days, Bloom and I was starting to spend more time with Mike and Vanessa. Sometime I felt like I was imposing to me, So I was often try to give them time together to spend with Bloom. I mean Bloom is their Daughter so I wouldn't mind sitting something out, But here's the thing when I try to give them time together Bloom, Vanessa and Mike always dragged with them and always included me into there conversation. I even had grown even closer to Bloom, considering our connection with our magic. Of course my Parents checked up on me during this time I even got yelled at by Ryan for not taking me with me, but hey at least Fay is having fun she even got me something on the Business trip. I'm grateful to all the people in my life for not making me feel alone.

The other day, we were in the flower shop, talking about some plants. "It's a very expensive vase I purchased from overseas, and I just sold it to Mr Morrison!" Vanessa smiled happily. "If it's really expensive, I can make another one if you want?" I offered with a smile. "That would be great Iris, but I already told Mr Morrison that this is the only one I own-" Right as she said that I heard the sound of breaking glass.

We turned our heads towards the entrance, from where the noise came from. A crack runs across the glass, finding the weaknesses that were once invisible. From perfect window to something belonging in the downtown core happens faster than the naked eye can appreciate. We all gasped and moved towards it, "Well On the bright side no one got hit with it." I stated standing right beside Bloom, while she examine the brick.

"Anyone out there?" Bloom asked as Vanessa checked for the culprit outside the shop.

"No," Vanessa lamented in a depressing tone, "Now I have to replace both doors and that's not gonna be cheap."

"Vanessa, I think you forgot something," I smile knowingly at Bloom," What did I forget?" She asked curious I then gave a Knowing Look at Bloom as she Turned the brick into a sponge and walked towards the damaged parts of the doors, "Damageous Errasus!" Bloom chanted as the crack on the glass disappeared and it was back to its brand new look as she rubbed the sponge on the broken parts.

"Oh yeah...I got two fairies right here," Vanessa said with a cheerful smile as I nod in agreement, reminding her, that if something happens Bloom and I will take care of it. We all than smile when we saw the door go back to it's normal look. 

─── ∙ ~εïз~ ∙ ───

─── ∙ ~εïз~ ∙ ───

The next day, Bloom, Vanessa and I were in the shop as usual. "The Morrison's are coming to pick up their vase, could you take it outside?" Vanessa asked us as we smile.

"Already on it!" Bloom replied.

"Got it!" I replied as we carried the Heavy vase. When we placed it on the floor, two bikers drove near it and destroyed it with a baseball bat, shattering the beautiful vase. 'I knew I should had I made a copy of it!' I thought with annoyance look on my face but decided to fix it before Vanessa noticed it. "Tempo Inverso." I chant quietly, as the Vase goes back to the way it was a few minutes ago. Bloom then smiled at me as we both giggled as we looked around making sure no one saw me.

Two days later, Vanessa, Bloom and I were returning from Lunch.

"Earth food is delicious!" I beam, rubbing my stomach in satisfaction.

"Oooooh, I'm so stuffed." Bloom remarked and Followed my actions.

"Your grandmother used to say a lady is never stuffed.  . ." She gasped in the middle of her sentence as she looked a the door that's close, "Oh, no!"

"What's wrong, Mom?" Bloom asked worriedly, as I walked besides Vanessa.

"The door has been forced open! Someone was here while we were gone!" Vanessa spilled miserably. She pushed open the doors without having to unlock it.

"What?!" Bloom gasped.

We gasped again as we walked inside the store and saw it was a total mess, "Oh, my! Look at this place," Vanessa mumbled. 'Okay, Enough is Enough when are these guys going to stop, Until someone nearly dies?' I looked around the room and All the plants were destroyed and were crushed on the floor. Everything was wrecked! I know if Flora was Here she would be put to tears. "I don't supposed you have a spell for this Bloom?" Vanessa asked with a little hopeful voice.

"No, Sorry Mom." Bloom replied while looking disappointed, I paused for a second then remember that there was a Book in my family library that might help. I then touch my necklace, "Evoca La chiave!" I said as a magical Book appeared in front of me. "Vanessa, I might be able to help." I said as I flip thought the pages. "Found it," I smiled as I put my hand towards the shop and chant, "Correggi e riavvolgi." right as I command, everything that was broken or shatter was fixed again.

"That was a close call. See, I told you, You always know how the fix something when situation needs it." Bloom complimented me as I made the Book returned to my family secret library. "Actually, I didn't I just hoped that was the right spelled and by luck it was." I answered with an awkward. "Well, I'm happy that it works out Iris, you need to have more faith in yourself. " Vanessa also complimented.

Ww then looked at the clean store, "I just don't understand! Why would burglars wreck the whole place?" Vanessa asked, picking up a pink rose, "It just doesn't make any sense!"

"I don't think it was a Burglar, Vanessa." I frowned, while crossing my arms, "It was the two Mr Bonners."

"We don't know that, Iris! We can't just start pointing finger." Vanessa hung her head. 'I'm not point my finger at them, I know it's a fact.' I thought knowing deep down that she also believe that it was those to cheater.

"If it was burglars. ." Bloom started, walking towards the cash register, "Why didn't they take the money from the cash register?" She determined, removing the money and showing it to Vanessa which was further proving my point.

"It was those guys, "Bloom declared, "They're trying to intimidate you."

─── ∙ ~εïз~ ∙ ───

─── ∙ ~εïз~ ∙ ───

It was night-time and I was helping Bloom and Vanessa clean the dishes.

"What did the police say?" Mike asked after we told him what happened to us for the past few days.

"They were there all afternoon, but they said there wasn't enough evidence." Vanessa sighed.

"That really steams my coffee. We can't just let these guys get away with, UGH!" We heard him groan in pain and looked at him to see that he burned his tongue, "I just burned my. . .oh. ."

"Honey. . ." Vanessa demurred with concern.

"Careful, Dad." Bloom warned as if he was a child.

"Are you alright, Mike?" I asked, looking at him.

"There is no point in getting worked up," Vanessa smiled, walking up to Mike and putting her arms on his shoulders, "We'll figure something out."

"I know. . .I just worry about you. I don't want anything bad to happen to you." He stated, standing up.

"I know. ." Vanessa sighed.

"We'll figure this out tomorrow," He yawned out loud, "I gotta hit the pillows. Goodnight, girls."

"Goodnight, girls." Vanessa waved and we greeted back.

"Something feels wrong." Bloom frowned, her eyes looking troubled.

"Don't worry Bloom, I'm here to help is something happens, Okay?" I reassured her as she smiled with gratitude. I soon then noticed what time it is and start to yarn. "It's late Bloom, Since we finished up here, we should get some rest tonight." I said with a reassured smile and start heading towards the guest room, while walking upstairs I could tell that she was still thinking about it.

─── ∙ ~εïз~ ∙ ───

─── ∙ ~εïз~ ∙ ───

I opens my eyes and the first thing I see is Alinta in a Field full of Red and Gold Flowers, I gotta say the flowers all looked beautiful and I can't put my foot on it but this field surprisedly fit her. "You just thought of something mean." Alinta called out to me as I approach her.

"Nooooo. . .Yes" I admitted with a little smile, hoping that this time she answered my questions. "Iris, you and Bloom bond seems to have gotten stronger, but be warned the stronger you guys emotions are the stronger the golden flames and great flames are easier triggered." She said sitting up for once and not laying down.

"What is Bloom to me?" I asked, starting to feel like there's something huge she's not telling me. I mean I have Always known she was hiding something from me. It wouldn't take rocket science to figure it out, but I just really want someone to answers my question's for once. "You will find it in a due of Time, just know that you and Bloom are even stronger when you guys are together, and you know the old saying, 'what comes with great power-" She started to say, When I interrupted her sentence, "Come with great responsible!" I said with an irritate voice.  'Oh I give up, Knowing her she will never answer my questions.' That's when I start feeling a pull, I then sigh to myself knowing that I'm waking up,  and decided to look at Alinta not really giving the energy to know things anymore.

"Your not going to ask me anymore questions?" She asked with an indifferent tone. "What's the point, if you're not going to answer them anyway." I shrugged she then gave me a playful look, "Yeah, but it's fun keeping you guessing."

'That damn dragon!' I thought as I start to get pulled stronger, before the light could take me I heard her say this, "Since, I decided to be nice to you, I decided to give you a little hint, the power within you are much greater then you think don't be afraid to use it when the time's call for it." She whispers.

"What the Fu-" I woke up Hearing Bloom screams, After hearing her screams I shoot out my bed and ran towards Bloom room. Which, not giving me enough time to cuss out that dragon.

"The flower shop. . .It's. . ." I quickly walked up to Bloom as sweat rolled down her forehead.

"Bloom, what happen? I heard you're screams from the guest room." I asked, with a concerned voice, as Vanessa switched on the lights and her parents looked worried too. Bloom was sweating and her eyes were wide in horror. You can tell what ever happened to her was torture.

"The flower shop. . .We have to go. . ." She panted.

"It's okay, honey. You had a nightmare." Mike patted Bloom's head in a reassuring manner.

"No, I had a vision. Mom's shop is on fire, we have to go!" Bloom shouted determinedly as she pulled off her covers and stood up.

"I think, we should do what she says." I suggested as I stood up and Looked at Mike and Vanessa with a Trusting look. They both nodded and we ran towards their car. Bloom and I was seated at the back while Mike and Vanessa took the front.

"Hurry, Dad!" Bloom rushed as Mike drove the car as fast and safely as possible. Bloom took my hand and I noticed immediately that her hands was trembling slightly. I patted her hand slightly, comforting her through the drive. I then gave her a reassure smile. When we were drawing closer to the shop, the bright color of orange confirmed Bloom's vision. Vanessa gasped as the flames crackled and consumed the shop in a fiery blaze and all I could think about, 'Why would humans go this far to get what they want?'.

"Oh! Quick, Mike, call you squad! Girls, stay in the car!" Vanessa ordered as Mike got out the car, clutching his radio.

"Chimney Rock, it's Honeybee here! We've got a fire in progress at Third and Carol! Get here ASAP!" Mike reported into his radio as we simply watched the flames eat at Vanessa's shop.

"My shop!" Vanessa cried, tears in her eyes. When I looked at her, I felt really bad for her and annoyed at the situation already having a feeling who did this. I than gave a determined look at Vanessa, "I will deal with this." I decided, not wanting to see or even think of Vanessa being in pain anymore, "You guys stay right here." I declared, walking forward.

"I'm coming, with you!" Bloom stated, running to my side, "It'll be easier to have two fairies than One." Bloom said as I nodded in respond.

"No, stop them, Mike!" Vanessa screamed, tensed.

Mike caught both of our arms and we halt, "No, Bloom, Iris. . .The boys are on their way."

"The station is on the other side of town, Dad! If we don't do something quick, the first will spread!" Bloom exasperated, turning around and facing him.

"Mike, Let us do something about at least let us contain it." I plead.

"Girls, there's nothing you can do." Mike shook his head.

"Vanessa remember what I remind you earlier, You got two fairies right here who can fix up the messes." I interjected, I then looked at Mike with a Determined expression while Bloom looked at him with a Plead.

"Okay, girls, but you are taking me with you." Mike added. we were at the entrance when bloom created a fire force around us, "So this force field bubble thing totally protects us from the fire?" Mike asked Bloom as we walked deeper into the burning shop.

"Yeah, but the spell will only last for 10 minutes." Bloom answered, looking at him.

"Wow, pretty awesome." He nodded, looking astonished, "We gotta get a couple of these things down at the station."

Bloom didn't give an answer to her father's comment, which I don't Blame her because we both are really focus right now, "Do you hear that?" She muttered.

"Hear what?" I asked, looking at her. As the harder I stared at the Bloom the more I started seeing her thought. . .wait? When have I've been able to do that? The closet I've been able to do that is when it's just an image not a memory! I saw a building on fire and everything was almost turning to ash.

"Come on, Let's go!" Mike is here?

"The fire is too big, Mike, we'll never make it!" Another fireman yelled.

"I'll go!" I then heard the sound of a wailing baby and looked around, searching for one, "I'm coming!" Mike walked towards the crying sound. There he saw a Beautiful crying infant. She had fiery red hair and beautiful baby blue eyes. There was a similar force field surrounding the baby, there was also a baby golden dragon wrapping around the force getting the smoke from causing too much harm to Bloom, wait! Why is there a baby golden dragon protecting her! The only family that has a Golden dragon symbol is my family. . .I already know I have a lot of questions, I need to ask my mom when I get home. 

"Save her!" A female voice echoed, "Take care of her!" Then another voice appeared, "They will meet again."

"I don't believe this!" Mike murmured. He smiled down at the baby, who had stopped crying and picked her up, when he did that the spirit dragon disappeared along with the magic circle. "Don't be afraid, little girl. You're in my arms now. . .Bloom." I snapped out of the vision when I heard coughing, "Bloom!" Mike called Bloom, who was still in her trance, "Bloom, look!" Mike pointed towards a man.

"That's Mr Bonner's driver!" Bloom gasped.

"I'll get him." Mike declared, removing his coat, "Stay calm, sir, we've got you!" He extended his hands towards the old man and reached out.

"Take the side exit." Bloom instructed, Mike looking at us with worry shining in his eyes, "We can take care of everything in here, Dad. Don't worry." Bloom reassured.

"Trust us. We got this in a Bag." I also reassured with confidence in my voice, "Be Careful!" Mike cautioned and exited with the old man.

"You take the front and I'll take care of the back." I instructed, We both turned back to back together, I started to breath a little slowly and connect with my Winx, "Doccia a pioggia!" I chanted, as a Shower of Rain started to come on my side and the fire started to go completely out, "Okay. . .That did it!" I smiled as Bloom pulled me into a big hug, which I returned with an even bigger smile. We both sighed in relief when we heard the boisterous sounds of a fire engine appeared.

"Most of the fire was already under control." A fireman reported.

"I don't know what you two we're doing in there, but that was something." The driver complimented us as he sat on the pavement, a coat around his shoulders.

"Here's your water." Vanessa handed him a flask containing water and he took it, grateful.

"What were you doing in there?" Bloom questioned, raising an eyebrow and crossing her hands around her chest. 'Now she's answers the Good questions, why was he in there? Don't humans normally run the opposite direction when they see a fire?' I thought quietly to myself, while also crossing my arms. 

"The driver gulped down the water and sighed, "I drove the two Mr. Bonners to the store, but when I saw them starting a fire, I tried to stop them and they knocked me out!" I then made an annoyed face, "Why am I not shocked that it was those two, and also that's one way to add attempted murder on your record." I said while looking at Bloom as she nod in agreement.

"They cause all this trouble, just because I didn't sell them my store?!" Vanessa gasped, exasperated. 'Yup! which is sad when you really thinking about it, there are so many other's shop's they could get.' I thought as I continue listen to the conversation.

"Oh, yeah, they sure did! They figured this way you'd have to sign the contract!" The driver explained.

"Yeah? Well, they were wrong. And they are in a lot of trouble," Mike glanced at the driver, "And you may be, too."

"I know, I shouldn't have anything to do with them, but I had no choice! I used to own my own limo business till they scammed me out of it. I took this job because I needed money, I have a family to support!" They driver sighed, "But tonight, starting a fire, they went too far, I could never be a part of that." The driver looked down sadly, "Believe me, I am Sorry!"

"Yeah, we know. . .we can see that." Bloom stated as we both looked at the man's miserable aura. The police came and took the driver for interrogation. He was innocent though and sorry. I hope the human law's don't be too harsh on him.

The next day, we were on the TV for our courageous acts and for showing Mr Bonner and Mr Bonner's true nature. It was pretty fun to be on the Earth news and also I am sure Mitzi's enjoying the sight of Bloom being honored and that. After it was over we decided to eat some sandwiches, it was pretty good, I even got another one. Mike and Vanessa were extremely happy about reopening their new shop with better equipment. When Bloom didn't say or eat anything, they noticed her mood. I was debating or not to ask her can I have her sandwich but decided not to, because I felt like it was not the time.

"Hey, Bloom, are you okay? It's so unlike you to let peanut butter and jelly sandwiches uneaten." Mike asked her.

"Is something bothering you, sweetie?" Vanessa asked.

Bloom finally decided to tell them about the vision she had in the fire, "Do you know something about this?" She asked, standing up.

For a second, both of them looked shocked. I stopped eating my second sandwich and glanced at them seeing them looking at each other, "Yes, we do." Vanessa admitted, "This is what I was trying to tell you before, Bloom."

"What? What is it?" Bloom questioned, her tone showing confusion. I was about to sneak out of the room to give them some privacy, but bloom giving me an emotional look that is obvious telling me that she need support, so me being the good friend I am, sat right back down in my seat property.

"Look, honey, we talked to you about being adopted, but what we didn't tell you was that day in the fire, when I found you." Mike stated in a cautious tone.

My eyes widened when Mike said that, what was she doing in that fire, and How did she get there? Bloom planted her hands firmly on the table and gaped at her parents, "What do you mean you found me in a fire? What was I doing there?!" Bloom voiced out my question to her parents.

"We don't know, Bloom!" Mike banged the table, frustrated and angry at himself, "I-I heard two voice's calling out to me." But Bloom didn't know about the voice, which shook me, did I accidentally looked into Bloom's Past and not just looked through her eyes? I then put my sandwich down not feeling hungry anymore.

" A voice?" Bloom repeated.

"It was a four-alarmer. Four blocks burning and no way to stop it, but when I picked you up, the whole fire went out, just like that! You clearly had the most powerful and amazing magic, but it never came back after that." Mike informed Bloom. Bloom's eyes filled with tears and I could feel her sadness. Why can I feel Bloom emotions like this? I'm starting to get confused. . .Actually I'm always confused when it comes to this stuff no one is answer my question and the more I know the more questions appears.

"Why didn't you tell me this before?" Bloom spluttered, crying, "Did you think that there was something weird or wrong? Did you not like the fact that I wasn't normal? . . ."

"No, Bloom, of course not!" Mike reassured, standing up. Vanessa went to stand next to Bloom and attempted to calm her down.

"When you told me about being adopted, why didn't you tell me about this, too?" Bloom demanded.

"We were going too, but the magic never came back and so, we thought we would wait until you were old enough to understand." Mike held his head in his hands and shook it, "And then, well. . .there was that day with Stella and your powers came back and then you went right off to Alfea so quickly that we didn't have time to sit dow and talk about it."

"Let me tell you something important, sweetie," Vanessa smiled, "We did talk to you about the real magic that happened that day. That we found you and you found us." Vanessa hugged Bloom and Mike joined in.

"Bloom, sweetie, we love you so much." Mike declared.

"I love you guys, too." Bloom mumbled in the hug. I then gave a little smile to the happy family, starting to feel a little home sick. Even though I miss my family, yes even Ryan, even though I will never admit it to his face, I decided to stand there awkwardly , but while standing there Bloom, Vanessa and Mike noticed my awkward movement and all extended their hands towards me. I was about to declined, Until Bloom Snatched me up and add me to the hug. I giggled a little in the hug, "And you too, Iris. Thanks for being here with me." Bloom smiled gratefully as I wiped away her tears.

"I am always here for you Bloom, When you need me." I replied with a smile.

"I don't get it." Musa shook her head. Bloom was on the bed, lying down and Flora sat beside her, stroking her hair. Stella sat in the corner, filing her nails. Musa, Tecna and I sat on the floor. I then sighed to myself a little.

"Yeah, Bloom, why are you so down? If you ask me, it was a really beautiful story. I think you and your parents have a really terrific relationship." Flora stated, kindly rubbing Bloom's depressed forehead. I also left out the part that Alinta came to me in a dream again, so it's not keeping secrets from them if they didn't ask in the first place. . .right? I'll tell them eventually, when the time is right.

"You talk about real things with them." Tecna commented.

"Girl, your earth parents sound like really awesome people." Musa smiled.

"They are! I also know they like me better than Stella." I said with a proud smile as Stella and I starting shooting Playful Stares at each other, Bloom than sighed and interrupted our stare down before it got Intense.

  "That's just it. My earth parents, you see?" Bloom exclaimed. I had a feeling she might be curious about who her birth parents is, and I already have an Intuition that we are going to have a long mission one day, I already dread it.

"This news has made you curious about your birth parents, hasn't it?" Stella asked.

"Yeah, of course it does." Bloom replied, standing up, "I am probably not even from Earth."

"So then, what were you doing in a fire in Gardenia?" Tecna asked, frowning.

"That's what I would like to know, Tecna. Who put me there? Was my dad meant to find me? And, what was those voice's my dad heard?" Bloom showered herself and us with questions.

"So many question's but little answers." I said with a curiously voice, "Exactly!" Bloom agreed.

"You may never find the answers. You know that, Bloom?" Flora cautiously stated.

"Would that stop you from looking?" Bloom inquired.

"Probably not." Flora shrugged.

"No matter what it takes, I want to find out. Where did I come from? What realm? What part of the Universe? I have to find out about my origins. So, will you help me?" Bloom asked, Looking at us.

We stood up and formed a circle around Bloom as we smiled at her, "I know I'll help you, Bloom. Sticking my noses in other people's business is my favorite pastime." Stella winked, grinning. "You got that right!" I teased while the others laughed.

"You can count me in." Musa smiled, "Flora."

"Of course." Flora nodded.

"Sign me up." Tecna agreed.

All eyes were on me now, waiting for my answer. I then gave a little smile and nodded along. "Oh what the heck? What's the worst that could happen? Of course I will help!" Bloom walked up to me and gave me a big hug I then returned it, while also caressing her hair.

"After all, we are the Winx Club." Musa declared, placing her hand forward.

"The Winx Club." Stella giggled, Placing  her hand on top of Musa's

"The Winx Club." Flora laughed, placing her hand on top of Stella's.

"The Winx Club." Tecna stated humorously and put her hand on top of Flora's.

"The Winx Club." Bloom piled her hand on, too. 

"The Winx Club." I smiled at all of them with my brightest smiled, I'm happy that I listened to my mom to come to Alfea. I would probably never smiled again after that incident if I didn't come Here.
