"You know, it would be easy for me to straighten up everything with a little magic." Stella said, offering to help when she saw Mike cleaning.

"Thanks, but I prefer this one." Mike admitted, continuing to sweep.

"Bloom's ready." Vanessa said, walking over with her.

"Are you sure about this, sweetie?" Mike asked.

"Yes, Dad. I'm going with Stella to the realm of Magix and Alfea Castle." Bloom said.

"Call us as soon as you get there and let us know everything. I can't believe we agreed to this. What if you get sick? What if you meet those monsters again? What..." Mike said, acting like a worried father.

"Dad, I'll be careful, I promise." Bloom said.

"Bloom, we love you very much. Please come home as soon as the session's over next summer. We'll miss you." Vanessa admitted.

"And I'll miss you both very much." Bloom said, wanting to leave. She knew that her parents had the special connection that she felt with Stella, and didn't want to tell them until she was completely sure.

"Ah ah ah, did you really think we'd let you go just like that? No, no, we're coming with you." Mike said, knowing something was up with his daughter.

"Really? Thanks, dad, this is so great." Bloom said, acting as excited as she had been about the bicycle.

"Ah, no sweat. And anyway, I really wanna see this famous Magic Dimension you keep talking about. So..." Mike said, completely clueless about how his daughter actually felt, or the thoughts going through her head.

"Stella, is it possible?" Bloom asked, secretly hoping it wasn't.

"Hmmm... Well, the rules don't allow it, but as they say, rules are made to be broken. But, they already won't be excited to see me because I accidentally blew up the chemistry lab last year. I was trying to create a new shade of pink, and got an explosion instead. " Stella admitted, getting the feeling that Bloom didn't want her parents coming.

"Sorry Mom and Dad. Looks like it's magical creatures only." Bloom said, relieved for Stella's save.

"Spit it out Bloom. What are you hiding?" Vanessa asked.

"N . . . Nothing . . . What are you hiding?" Bloom asked, getting nervous, wanting to leave.

"Did you get back together with Andy?" Vanessa asked.

"What? No! We only agreed to date because we're friends, and we've never felt that thing towards each other." Bloom admitted.

"What. 'Thing'?" Vanessa asked. Her eyes started turning a light blue as she got mad, and a thunderstorm started appearing outside.

"The thing girls are supposed to feel towards guys." Bloom said, glancing at Stella for help.

Stella holds Bloom's hand, squeezing it lightly to comfort her. Secretly, she was glad that Bloom didn't feel that connection towards guys either.

"GET OUT! We should have never adopted you!" Vanessa shouted, a bolt of lightning coming through the living room.

"I . . . I'm adopted? D . . . Dad?" Bloom asked, starting to cry, asking Mike, since Vanessa was acting scary.

"No, Vanessa. YOU! Get. Out!" Mike exclaimed, surprised and scared by his wife's reaction. He held Bloom's other hand, as if wanting her to know that he supports her no matter what. "I found you in a fire when you were a baby Bloom. It was as if the fire was protecting you, and it completely disappeared once you were in my arms." Mike admitted.

Vanessa angrily starts to storm outside, when suddenly, one of her own lightning bolts turns her to ash, the storm completely disappearing.

"Ready to go to Alfea?" Stella asked, taking off her ring, automatically turning it into a scepter.

"Is it okay if he comes? He doesn't have to actually go into Alfea, but . . ." Bloom said, leaving the rest of her sentence in her thoughts.

"Of course he can Bloom." Stella said, with a smile. "Ready to go?" She asked, looking at Mike, who had grabbed his jacket.

"We were born ready." Mike admitted, excited to see where Bloom and Stella would be going to school.

"To Magix we go!" Stella exclaimed, the portal opening. The three of them, and Kiko fell through the portal. Once they arrived, Bloom, Stella, and Kiko landed on their feet, while Mike fell safely on the ground.

"Ahh! Wow, it really does exist." Mike said, looking around, in awe as he stood up.

"You believe us now?" Bloom asked him.

"Come on, we gotta go. Classes are about to begin." Stella said, secretly hoping that she and Bloom would be in the same apartment.

"That must be your school over there. You excited?" Mike asked, seeing the castle.

"You bet I am!" Bloom admitted. Secretly, she was excited to get to know Stella better.

"Let's go then. We don't want to be- oof!"Mike exclaimed, running into the barrier that kept non-magical creatures out. "Hey! It's like there's an invisible wall! I can't get through!" He exclaimed, pressing his face against it.

"Really? Where is it? I can't feel anything. Are you pulling my leg Dad?" Bloom asked, not feeling a thing.

"No, Honey, honest!"Mike admitted, wondering why he couldn't get through.

"Stella, did you do that, by any chance?" Bloom questioned, wondering what was there.

"No, Bloom. It's a protective barrier. It keeps non-magical creatures out of Alfea." Stella admitted, making a blueish yellow barrier appear. "Sorry, I'm afraid you can't go in any further." Stella admitted, smiling apologetically to Mike.

"Dad!" Bloom exclaimed, passing through the barrier to give him one last hug.

"Always do your best, okay? And remember, I'll always be there for you no matter what. Kiko, you keep an eye on her!" Mike said, hugging his adopted daughter.

"Don't worry, she's in good hands. " Stella said, looking at Mike. "Come on, we gotta go!" She exclaimed, taking Bloom's hand.

"I'll be back home for a visit as soon as I can." Bloom admitted

"I'll send you home now. Ready? Stay there and don't move. Solaria!" Stella shouted, summoning her staff." And have a nice trip!" She exclaimed, teleporting Mike away. She turns to Bloom, smiling at her. "Hm? Ready to take the plunge? Once you cross the barrier, there's no turning back!" Stella exclaimed.

"My mind's made up, Stella. I'm going with you!" Bloom admitted, smiling at her friend that's a girl.

"All right! Let's get moving! It's time to show our faces!" Stella exclaimed, walking through the forest with Bloom.

"This place is amazing!" Bloom exclaimed, entering Alfea with her.

"Don't let that distract you!" Stella exclaimed.

"Who's that lady over there?" Bloom asked, seeing a strict looking woman.

"Griselda: Head of Disipline! It's okay to let her distract you!" Stella said.

"What is your name?" Griselda asked a young girl.

"Eleanor of Delona..." She said.

"Okay, let's see if your name appears on the list. Eleanor...Eleanor. Are you nervous young lady?" Griselda suspiciously asked.

"A little" Eleanor admitted.

"Ah, there you are Eleanor of Delona, you can go in" Griselda said, waving her off.

"Thank you" Eleanor said, before hurrying off.

"Next!"Griselda announced.

"Now what? I'm not on the list." Bloom said, starting to get nervous.

"It's going to be okay Bloom. You're a fairy, and we met on Earth. That must count for something. " Stella admitted, gently squeezing Bloom's hand to comfort her.

"Thanks Stel." Bloom said, smiling at her crush.

Stella smiles, as if saying you're welcome with her eyes. "Long time no see, Ms. G!" She exclaimed, walking to her with Bloom.

"Not long enough, Princess Stella! Not after the little incident last year! I don't know how your parents convinced the school board to take you back! It's beyond me." Griselda admitted, not pleased to see her.

"They did donate that new computer lab." Stella said, making a point.

"Who is your friend?" Griselda asked, not recognizing the red haired girl.

"Bloom, from Earth." Stella said proudly.

"Earth fairies don't exist." Griselda said, looking at her list, that Bloom wasn't on.

"How else would she be able to be here?" Stella asked, not afraid of Griselda.

"She's not on my list Princess Stella. " Griselda said.

"But she's on my list Griselda. " Faragonda said, walking over. All she did was cast a simple spell, to make Bloom's name appear on her list, since she was clearly magical.
