At Alfea, it's wonderful to go to magic lessons together with Stella, Flora, Musa and Tecna.
But in the Magic Dimension, there is also a school for witches: Cloud Tower, where the dangerous Icy, Darcy, and Stormy go to school. Were they responsible for the ogre's attack? And why?

-

"Good mornin', everyone."

The small Irish professor sat on his desk to meet his students' eye, his legs swinging slightly. "As usual, it befalls me to kick off the school year." Jumping off, he began to pace in front of the classroom. "Now, for those of you who haven't met me yet, I am Professor Wizgiz -"

Stella smirked at Y/n, who giggled a little, then made sure it looked like she was paying attention.

Well, after was certainly paying attention to something. In front of her, Blaze already had his head on his hand, chewing on a pencil.

"- your teacher of metamorphosis, or as I prefer to call it, the art of changin'..." He put his finger on his mouth and gave it a tug, his face transforming into that of Ms. Griselda, and with a voice change. "...the way you look!"

The students gasped in marvel, even Blaze suddenly sitting up in surprise.

Wizgiz leaned on Blaze's desk, mockingly chastising him in Griselda's voice. "Slacking off, are we, young man?"

The class - including Stella and Y/n - laughed while the poor redhead slunk down in his seat, hot with embarrassment. Changing back by tugging at the glasses, Wizgiz gave a small chuckle and said, "Don't worry, I'm sure you were really payin' attention, weren't 'cha, Blaze?"

"Um...yeah, of course!"

"By the year's end, you'll do better than that!" He jumped onto a desk of one of the blonds. "And, since every endin' must have a beginnin', let's start with a simple exercise." With his finger, he materialized mirrors in front of the students. Stella took hers and fluffed her hair.

"Concentrate. Look in the mirror, look at yourself, and think about changing the color of your hair."

The girl sitting next to Blaze turned her brunette hair to blond. Y/n saw him take his mirror and his hair blow back, but then fall back into place.

In defeat, he set the mirror back on the desk, Wizgiz next to him when he noticed his struggle. "Don't worry, Blaze. If at first you don't succeed, try again."

-

"We were the only one who couldn't do it!" Y/n complained to Stella while Flora watered her plant.

"You'll get it!" Stella encouraged, sitting in front of her. "You just have to practice! After all, you know what they say, 'practice makes perfect'!"

"I know...it's like when I had to learn how to high jump back in Gardenia."

"That's the right attitude! Besides, girl, you've already got your wings, so this should be no problem!"

"I sure hope so..." She leaned back in her bed. "Poor Blaze. He still hasn't transformed..." Sitting back up, she leaned her hands on her lap. "Flora, Stella, can I ask you something?"

Flora stopped watering her plant to sit next to her on her bed.

"Uh-huh."

"What made you girls want to come to Alfea, anyway?"

Stella stood and clapped her hands together as she walked to the other side of the room. "Because I want to become a real fairy: successful, beautiful, powerful, and universally admired!"

Seeing Y/n give her an annoyed look, she added, "Of course, I also want to do good things, like making people happy, and bringing back together estranged lovers... starting with my parents..." she added in a mumble, sitting back on the bed.

"I want to become a real fairy, too, but I'm here primarily because I really love to learn," Flora said before getting smacked with a pillow by Stella, who was now standing over her.

"Oh, that is such a nerdy answer!"

She threw the pillow behind her, Flora opting to ignore it and ask Y/n instead, "What about you and Blaze?"

"That's the thing." She stood up and made her way across the room to the window. "We've always heard stories about fairies, but then we came when we had the chance to become one...but we really know nothing about it..." She leaned against the window, looking out at the clear starry sky.

-

"Yeah, this is really good!"

" think it's..."

"Hey, what is this? Is this a narcissist's soup or something?"

" Nah, it's got carrots."

Y/n and Flora ran into the Dining Hall, trying to crouch to stay out of sight, despite Ms. Griselda wordlessly noticing them.

"Oh, and the flowers..."

"Are you crazy?"

"They're, like, edible flowers."

"You guys, it tastes good."

They took a seat with the rest of the girls and Blaze, who had saved the seat next to him for Y/n.

"It's about time. What took you so long?" Stella asked.

"My fault. I overslept," Y/n admitted.

Tecna picked up her teacup "Watch out for Mistress Griselda. Somehow, I don't think she's a very nice person."

Y/n shook her head. "Tecna, don't be rude. She's just doing her job."

"Well, I'm just saying."

Just as she was about to take a sip, Faragonda called, in front of her seat on the balcony in front of the room, "Students, your attention, please."

Griselda watched her announcement with her head in her hand, eyes still narrowed.

"As is the tradition among the magic schools, the annual gala in honor of our new students will be held . Students of the Alfea College for Fairies and the Red Fountain School for Heroics and Bravery will gather here in our castle to perform the traditional welcome gift exchange ceremony. Everyone is welcome!"

The students cheered over her so that Griselda had to clap her hands and shout over them, her voice able to raise easier than Faragonda's gentler grandmotherly voice. "Silence, please! Ms. Faragonda, our headmistress, is speaking! Let's show a little respect!"

"Thank you, Griselda. One more thing I'd like to say. I'm calling on all your creative minds to turn this ordinary-looking hall into a festive ballroom, so today's classes are cancelled. Get to work and do us proud!"

-

"Attention, please! Here comes Her Witchress Griffin!"

The witches of Cloud Tower took their seats in the assembly hall, looking around bordley, even when their headmistress, Ms. Griffin, approached the front of the stage with her hands on her hips.

Everyone was seemingly in some kind of goth or emo attire with very few exceptions. Seats were distanced from each other, symbolizing how the witches preferred to work.

"My young witches," Ms. Griffin began. "I have summoned you here because I have a sad piece of news to share: the fairies are hosting a party tonight and, once again, the witches of Cloud Tower have not been invited."

The witches cheered at this, glad they had an excuse to not be anywhere near their rivals.

"Yes, my friends, I agree with you, but this is an opportunity for you to test your cursing skills. It is the duty of every witch in this school to crash this party and wipe the smile off their face! They've snubbed us, we'll make them pay!"

Leader, Pretty, and Frizzy - Icy, Darcy, and Stormy - sat in the front row, listening to the headmistress go on and taking it way too seriously. Instead of their witch forms, they wore casual clothes that were in style, all tops of their favorite color and matching bottoms, Icy and Stormy in miniskirts and Darcy in baggy pants. Darcy even had on fashionable sunglasses, despite it being dark in the assembly room.

Rivalry had always been a thing between fairies and witches, so it was expected that the witches play a trick on the fairies during their first dance. What Ms. Griffin was doing was merely roleplay. But witches this cruel could only think of how to bring the most pain to the students of Alfea.

"And so, I urge you to come up with a way to ruin their little fiesta! Submit your proposals and I'll select one. May the worst witch win!" She fell back into her seat with her head in her hand, listening to the cheers of her students.

"What do you think?" Darcy asked her sisters. "Should we come up with a little scheme?"

"Why not?" Icy, the oldest of the triplets, replied.

But Stormy had her leg crossed over one other, pouting. "Aw, come on. We'd just be wasting our time."

"Trust me, Stormy, dear," Icy said cruelly with a wicked smile. "It'll be fun ~"

-

"Classes are cancelled and it's only the second day?!" Tecna huffed as the girls and Blaze made their way back to class.

Y/n caught up to her, asking sing-songy, "Come on, Tecna! Where's your school spirit ~?"

"I left it on Zenith."

"What do we have to do for the party?" Blaze asked Stella, who was next to him.

"Easy, Blaze. Just get ready to have a ball!"

"I'll provide decorations." Flora snapped her fingers and vined roses wrapped around the pillars of Alfea.

Musa ran in front of everyone, stopping with her arms out, blocking everyone's path. "And I'll take care of the music. I mean, what's a party without dancing?"

Everyone else walked past her, more annoyed that she was blocking them.

"And I'll worry about what to wear, because clothes are important, too," Stella said.

"Wait, how are we supposed to get ready together?" Blaze asked, turning a little red with embarrassment. "I mean, you're girls, so..."

"That's easy." Stella said and handed Blaze some cash. "Here, buy yourself something nice. We'll see you tonight."

"Oh, no, Stella, I can't -"

"Relax, Blaze. Think of it as an apology that we can't all get ready together." The bills remained outstretched to him and, hesitantly, he accepted it, not having any money to buy his own outfit, anyway. "See, now was that so hard?"

The group walked off, Y/n lingering. "You know..." she began. "Blue would really bring out your eyes."

-

Stella took her new dress off the rack: a long orange one-piece with her waist showing, the top barely connected, formally known as an Iwink Wizrahi.

"And, of course, I refuse to go unnoticed!" She held it in front of her body. "Well? What do you think?"

"Stella, it's beautiful!" Y/n exclaimed, reaching out to feel the fabric.

The other girls were already in their outfits.

Flora wore the most traditional dance outfit: a long pink background with roses holding up part of her hair and vines along the dress.

Tecna wore the latest from Mars: a short blue and underdress and, overtop, a pale-blue dress/cape/headdress combination with boots.

To match her tomboy persona, Musa had on a a long, ripped shirt in her home planet, Melody's, traditional kimono-style, as well as baggy pants underneath.

[Before you all yell at me, Musa is Asian-coded, not purely Chinese. I know she was based off Lucy Liu, but I'd like to use different Asian cultures in Melody, as well. That and the wiki said this outfit was kimono-inspired. Keep in mind: it's a fictional planet.]

"Mind you, it wasn't cheap. I maxed out the credit card Daddy gave me. But look at it! It was calling me from the shop window..." She put her hands up dramatically. " 'Buy me! Buy me, please...' "

"And of course you answered its plea," Musa snickered, causing Stella to open her eyes. "How very noble of you."

"Well, I'm bound to make an impression!"

Flora leaned forward on her palms. "Uh-huh. I hear the boys from Red Fountain are pretty cute."

"Guys?" Tecna scoffed. "As if I care about that."

"Then why are you dressed like an absolute diva?" Musa, who was very much interested in the boys and boys in general, inquired.

"That's beside the point. Besides, I researched it thoroughly. This is the latest in fabric technology."

"At least it won't wrinkle," Y/n offered. "Hey, girls, do you think they'll let me in like this?"

It was a nice enough outfit, but far too casual.

"Oh, Y/n. You don't have a dress?" Flora asked.

"No problem!" Stella replied, tossing her hair. There's a solution to everything, and in this case, it's called...shopping!"

Behind her, Musa grinned excitedly.

-

Winx
If your hand is warm in mine,
It will give us greater power

Y/n ran to a window with a beautiful dress in it, pressing her face up against the glass for a better look.

-

With a feeling, we'll be sure
Fire-winners!

She stepped out of the changing room in a pink, knee-length dress, twirling around for them. Flora smiled dreamily, but Tecna shook her head.

-

Winx
With a smile, you can enchant
And you're lighting up our world
With a feeling, we can take flight, watch us!

Stella ran to one of the saleswomen to inquire about a dress.

-

Y/n tried on the next dress: a long yellow one with opera gloves. The saleswoman bent over to take measurements.

Flora grimaced at it while Stella outright spoke of her disdain.

Winx ~

-

"How about this one?" Y/n asked in a blue dress with a hole in the middle.

The whole group smiled, Stella giving her a thumbs-up and Tecna an "okay" sign.

After taking a look at the price tag, she shook her head. "No, I can't afford this." She went back into the changing room.

"I'll pay for it," Stella offered, taking her credit card out.

"No, Stella," Flora said, putting her hand on Stella's shoulder. "You might offend her. Besides, you can't, remember? You maxed it out."

-

"Now what?" Y/n asked on the streets, still without a dress.

"Well..."

"It's getting kinda late, Y/n."

"Yeah, we've got to get back to Alfea."

"You'll be alright?"

"Yeah, you girls go. I'll find something," she said and ran off down the street, hoping to find something.

Down the street, she saw huge sale signs on a window and looked around at the dresses and suits inside.

"Eighty percent...ninety percent...perfect!"

-

Musa pulled up her collar, the turned to the mirror to check herself over.

We're
The magical Winx Club

-

Y/n searched through the women's section of the store, desperately looking for something that would fit her and still look stylish.

-

We're all tied to the same fate together

Tecna pulled her boot on, smiling at herself confidently.

-

Y/n continued looking through, tossing rejects around the store.

-

We're the kids

Flora pulled part of her hair into two buns, leaving the rest of it down.

The wonder kids,

-

Y/n saw the saleswoman and other customers angrily crossing their arms at her, covered in the clothes she had thrown, at which she began to apologize profusely.

That's us

-

The magical Winx Club

Stella looked at herself in the mirror, checking her dress from all angels.

-

Finally finally an outfit, Y/n took it into the changing room.

-

Stella smothered her hair in the front, trying to get it to look just right for a certain prince.

-

So happy to be flying from heaven to earth

She held the outfit up, smiling at it in the mirror.

-

Looking at the time, Y/n sprinted back to catch a bus with her shopping bag in her hand.

This magic feeling
This is our Winx Club!

Flora:

-

Icy, Darcy, and Stormy stood in Ms. Griffin's office while she glared up at them from the desk.

"I've received many of suggestions, but none as disgusting as yours!" she exclaimed and slammed their proposal sheet down on her desk. "A horrible idea! Terrible! Despicable! In other words, it's the best. Well done, you three! A great start to the year!"

"Thanks, Professor," Icy replied with an icy smirk.

Ms. Griffin walked around them, staying in the perfect character of an evil witch the whole time. "Now please don't disappoint me."

"We'll get to work right away, ma'am," Darcy assured.

"Trust us, we won't fail. Tonight, you'll sleep with the sound of crying fairies. Not to mention upchucking and projectile vomiting..."

-

"Scissors, scissors..." Blaze mumbled, throwing his room in disorder. He would apologize to his roommate later: it was an emergency. His pants were too long and he would be tripping over them all night.

"I need a pair of scissors!"

He looked back to find Kiko biting at the pants. "Kiko, I don't think that'll work." He rubbed his chin in contemplation, then used a finger to create fire energy. The beam went across his pants, cutting through.

"It works! Hey, what's going on?" Absently, he left the pants to begin to smolder, opening his window to see the Red Fountain kids, all in dresses and suits.

"Wow. Brenda, Sky, Riven...they're all here... Brenda looks so cute...and I wonder what Y/n's wearing..."

The smell of smoke in his nostrils changed his thoughts so that he whipped his head around to the suit, now on fire. He let out a cry and grabbed a pillow, repeatedly hitting it while Kiko tried to help by hopping on it.

Once it stopped, he groaned in aggravation. "What a disaster! If only I had scissors!"

Still not able to find any scissors, Blaze made his way to the storage room through the dark halls of Alfea. He opened the door, but stopped at it when he heard voices from the inside.

"Now which way do we go?"

"Don't ask me. You're the one with the map."

"I recognize those voices..." He went in to investigate, having to hold back a yell when he saw a small beam from a flashlight, seeing that it was the witches who had tried to freeze him. Ducking behind a wall, he watched them.

Icy's flashlight landed on a small, grab box. "Look. The Red Fountain Coat of Arms. The gifts must be in there."

"I wonder what those simpletons are gonna give the fairies?" Darcy jeered, a bit jealous. No boy had ever gotten her a gift before.

Icy, on the other hand, could not care less about boys or romance, coldly stating, "Whatever they are we'll use them to wreak havoc and spread panic. That'll give us a chance to get the ring. Come on Darcy, show us where it is, go on."

"With pleasure, dearest sister. Illusion! Show the Trix!" Her eyes began to glow yellow, cat-like, and purple energy waves shot out.

In front of them, am image of Stella appeared, taking off her ring and placing it in a small box.

"Great. Now we know where to find it. Come on, Stormy. Time to do your thing."

"At last!" she exclaimed, forcing the box open. Darcy took one of the eggs, cooing at it condescendingly. When she opened it, small butterflies fluttered out.

"Oh, enchanted little eggs."

"How tacky," Icy responded. "Anyway, it's time for us to prepare our own surprise."

With their combined energy, they focused it all on the eggs.

"These presents...shall become snake-rat eggs!"

"Which will hatch at the touch of a fairy!"

"And spread terror all over!"

Blaze, from his spot behind the wall, had to look away as they cast the spell. "Goodness, no..." he whispered.

Instead of the eggs being spotted, they began to have jagged orange stripes.

"Well done, sisters."

"Now let's get out of here."

Icy made a passway out the side of Alfea and walked out with Darcy and Stormy behind, towards a bush where they could safely watch.

-

"There they are..."

Blaze kept his head down, rushing past the fairies and specialists. Not seeing where he was going, he accidentally bumped into one of the Red Fountain girls. "Ow!" he cried, rubbing his nose. Upon looking up, he saw Brenda, who seemed to smile when at him.

"Sorry," he said, standing up.

"Blaze, are you okay?"

"Yes, of course."

She rubbed the back of her head, admitting, "I'm so happy to see you."

He pushed past her, saying, "Me too, but I gotta go."

Brenda watched after him, disappointed. "Already?"

-

"This is an emergency."

Blaze had pulled the girls out of the dining hall and to the hallway so that he could tell them what he had seen without causing a stir. For the first time that night, he had seen Y/n's outfit - icy and blue - and honestly could not get enough of her in it.

"What are you talking about?" Stella asked.

"Icy, Darcy, and Stormy have cast a spell on the presents from Red Fountain. I heard them talking about something called a 'snake-Rat'."

" 'Snake-Rat'?" Tecna asked, rubbing her chin. With her hand, she created a green light as she searched up the term. "Let me consult my database. 'Snake-Rat: swamp creatures of the disgustabilus genies. Can cause projectile vomiting with one bite.' "

"Ew!" Stella exclaimed. "Thank you, Tecna. We get the picture. Slimy, vicious and venomous. Like the witches. But what's in it for them?"

"The boys?" Y/n suggested. "It seems like witches have more of a prejudice against them, so maybe they're jealous?"

"Well, actually, the witches are not after the boys at all. What they're after is your ring, Stella. The witches want to provoke a huge panic and use it as a diversion to get their hands on it!"

Musa put her chin between her fingers. "That's quite the sneaky plan. We've got to stop the eggs from being handed out."

"Too late! Look!" Flora pointed at the dining hall, where Sky and Timmy were putting down the chest.

Sky stood as Timmy opened the chest to reveal the eggs, smiling all prince-like. "For you, fairies. I hope you like them."

"There's no Snake-Rats?" Y/n observed with confusion.

"Well, I think they're too hatch from inside the eggs," Blaze told her.

"We need a counter-spell and fast! Come on, let's form a circle." Stella took their hands and the other fairies followed suit so that they were all in a circle. "Repeat after me: what it once was, let it be again."

"What it once was, let it be again. What it once was, let it be again. What it once was..."

Their energy shot out from the circle and towards the eggs, the stripes disappearing and changing to dots once again in one swoop of an energetic wave.

-

Sky took out one of the eggs and handed it to a girl who had had her eye on him the whole evening. She took it and opened it up, marveling at the butterflies that came out of it, as did the other fairies.

Seeing the group in the other hallway, Sky took an egg, looking after one of the girls in particular. Taking in a deep breath, he strode over confidently and handed it to the girl.

"I hope this egg brings you luck."

Stella suspiciously took it, answering carefully, "I guess I'll find out soon enough if it does or not."

"Let me see that." Musa took the egg, eyeing it intently, then asked, "Flora, are you thinking what I'm thinking, by any chance?"

"I am, indeed," she replied. "And ice studied Professor Palladium's lesson very well."

Confused, Sky, looking between the girls, let out a soft, "Huh?"

Y/n gave him a pat on the shoulder, giggling. "Don't worry about it, Your Highness. It's all been taken care of."

"It's all yours, Flora." The Melodian gave it over to her friend, who put a small spell over it.

"And now I'll make a little surprise blossom for our three witchy little friends!"

"What did you do to the egg?" Y/n asked.

"I'll tell you later. Meanwhile, I want Blaze to go run and get changed. It's getting late."

-

Blaze turned the light on with a hand-wave and ran in. "I did my first spell ever!" he exclaimed to Kiko as he ran in for his clothes.

Seeing him, the rabbit began to jump on the bed.

"Sorry, Kiko, no time to play. Huh?"

The box with Stella's ring began to float away. The fairy and bunny looked at each other for a moment before he ran after it.

Once it was outside, it opened and dropped, the ring's case now being the only thing that flew away. Blaze knelt over it as the ring floated away, which, upon seeing, he began to run after again.

"Hey! Oh! Woah, wait for me! Where are you going?!" he called after it, running into one of Alfea's gardens. He jumped for it, diving near a bunch of tall plants and landing on his pants. "Gotcha!"

Getting up, he began to take it back to their room, footsteps on the grass behind him.

"Nosey little boy!"

"Why can't he mind his own business?!"

He dropped the ring, backing away when he saw the Trix. "Uh-oh...this isn't good...where are the others?"

But the Trix came closer before Stormy asked, "Are you ready, little boy?"

He gulped, watching Icy put up an ice wall in around of him. Looking behind, he jumped over so that he was once again on the grass.

Darcy let out a wave of energy, causing the ground to break and crack, nearly throwing Blaze into it. Just when it seemed under he was fine, Stormy used her winds to push him backwards so that he was right at the edge of the crack. He fell back, groping the ledge.

Icy levitated the ring to her before asking, "May I do the honors?"

"Of course," Stormy replied.

Watching Blaze pathetically, Icy crossed her arms. "You're on your own this time. Your girlfriends are not here to help you." Charging her attack, she finished with, "So long, little fairy."

"No...I am a fairy, I must not fail. I will succeed."

-

Blaze spun in a circle with his hands up, twirling.
He clapped and crossed his hands, arm bands appearing and sleeves coming from his undershirt. With his hands held out, another shirt came in, this one only covering his top and with a yellow pendant on his chest. His pants and boots appeared along with it.
He turned his head and his wings appeared. Straightening, a small crown was placed on his head that matched the pendant. He flew up and landed on his feet, one hand on his hips as his eyes narrowed.

-

After his first time transforming, a new energy seemed to run through his body, even nearly blasting the witches away.

"Wow, I'm transformed!" he realized once the wind stopped. "Looks like we're evenly matched."

"That's an awfully cute little fairy outfit. Too bad you'll need more than that to win against us," Icy said before looking at Darcy to hint that it was her turn.

"Virtigo!" She put her fingers on her head and let out deadly illusion waves, disorienting Blaze.

"W-what's going on?! I'm all dizzy..."

'I must offset the witch's spell...but, of course!'

He fluttered his wings, the spell not in affect above. "Fairies can fly and up here, spells of illusion have no affect."

Darcy growled, her older sister looking at her distastefully. "Got a problem, Darcy?"

Blaze glared down at them, his hair in the wind and eyes steely blue.

"Nasty little fairy...Ice Prism!" She raised her hands and it began to snow, giant prisms of ice nearly impaling Blaze.

"Frost Bite!"

A blast of cold wind knocked him out of the sky and by the plants.

"Now, let's put the icing on the cake..." Snow blew around Icy as she cried, "Iceberg!" The perimeter of her area froze over, then enveloped everything inside.

Assuming she had frozen Blaze over, she let her guard down. "Hey, we've got the ring. Let's get out of here." She snapped her fingers and the Trix were gone.

Blaze, who had ducked behind some bushes just outside of Icy's area, crawled out. He stood and brushed off the dirt on his clothes.

"Blaze!"

"Blaze! Goodness! Where were you? Are you okay?"

His friends - all but Y/n - were running at him, still in their dresses.

"We've been looking everywhere for you!" Musa exclaimed. "Y/n is checking the dorm and we all kinda met up by the exit. You okay?"

"Yes. I had to fight the witches, but I'm still in one piece."

"You took them on, all by yourself?!" Stella asked, impressed.

"Is everything alright?!" Tecna asked.

He checked behind him as he said, "Well, I did manage to get away from them..."

"You know, you ran quite the risk."

"I know, but they have Stella's ring, I was just trying to get it back."

Giggling, Flora informed, "Don't worry, Blaze. The ring is perfectly safe."

"What do you mean? Tell me!"

-

Coming back to his dorm, Blaze finally fixed his suit and tried it on, looking at it in the mirror to make sure everything looked right.

"Jeez. It took you long enough."

Behind him was Y/n, still in her outfit, now leaning against the wall.

"Y - Y/n! You're still up here?" he asked, pointing to the door. "The party...how much did I miss?"

"Let me think...the headmistress asked Musa to sing for the boys, and Prince Sky flirted with Stella, and Brenda asked where you were." She eyed him suspiciously, then asked, "Are you sweet on Brenda?"

"Oh, her?" Blaze tried to wave it off, laughing a little too uncomfortably. "She's cute and all, but...y'know..." He took an awkward silence between them before saying, "I never got to tell you this because of the witches, but...you look really beautiful in that."

She looked at her clothes and gave him a sheepish smile in return. "Oh, well...thank you...are you ready now?" She held out her hand, which Blaze let her rest on his arm.

"Definitely."

-

"They're a perfect couple!"

"Where'd she get that cape?"

"Omg, his suit is an Iwink Wizrahi!"

"Beautiful..."

Both of them stood in the door, Y/n still holding onto her best friend, stopping when all the attention went on them. He led her to the rest of the girls, where Flora took Y/n by the shoulders.

"Doesn't he look great?" Y/n asked the girls.

"As beautiful as a spring flower," Flora agreed.

He put his arm around Y/n, Flora letting go and letting out a happy sigh at his gesture. "You know, you never told us what you did with the egg."

"Simple. While you were getting dressed, I did a little magical switcheroo with the egg and the ring, which now lies in a safe place. Right, Stella?"

"Right."

"I'd love to see Icy's face when she opens the shell and a swarm of beautiful butterflies comes out instead of the ring she's so desperately trying to get her paws on," Blaze said, already picturing it.

"Well, that's not quite how it's gonna go."

"Still. It'll be funny!" Stella laughed before letting Flora fill them in on what would really happen.

-

"Hm. What is this?" Icy took the egg out of the ring-case. She sat up on her bed from her laying position. "Maybe the ring's hidden inside." She shook it a few times, whatever it was sounding a little too big to be the ring. "Something is in here that's for sure. Hmm...I can hear a thumping sound."

Stormy and Darcy came over just as it opened in a cloud of smoke, covering them in soot. What was left in Icy's hands was a small, purple duck.

"Quack quack! Mommy!"

"M - M - Mommy?!" Icy stuttered as the duck lunged forward and kissed her on the cheek.

"Quack quack! Mommy! Pépé loves Mommy!"

"Urgh...I hate him! I HATE HIM!"

-

Y/n:

OR

[Optional]

Blaze:

Seeing Y/n by herself by the wall while the rest of their friends were dancing, Blaze trapped her so that she had to look at him.

"Blaze?"

"Would you, uh...like to dance?" he asked a bit stiffly.

Putting her hand in his, she replied, "I'd love to."

As they began, Y/n asked, "So, Blaze. Where were you, anyway?"

"Oh, that. It's a long story. I'll tell you tonight."

-

In the next chapter, it's time for exams at Alfea. There will be a test in the Black-Mud Swamp with Professor Palladium. The Specialists will also be there, but something will go wrong.
