Starcrossed: A Winx Reimagining

I SEE YOU

INT. LIGHT PROJECTION CLASS. AFTERNOON.

BLOOM sits eagerly in her classroom as she's laser-focused on taking notes, she has an entire journal dedicated to analyzing other fairies' use of magic. While everyone else is completely bored out of their mind. None of them are quite as bored as STELLA who's fast asleep leaning on her chair. BLOOM nudges her shoulder as she whispers.

BLOOM

Hey, don't be rude.

STELLA wakes up confused as everyone stares at AISHA who stands before the class completely tense. She brushes her long curled crimson hair out of her deep blue eyes as she adjusts her glasses. She breathes out and murmurs.

AISHA

Flos Proiectura.

And extends her arms as her eyes shimmer blue and a projection of a blue flower materializes out of air. The whole class claps as STELLA rolls her eyes as AISHA glares at her. She walks back to her seat as their TEACHER rises.

TEACHER

Thank you Aisha for a good display of light projection, now who would like to go next?

BLOOM writes in her journal, "eyes glowed, no words or circles used, must be extremely focused." STELLA smirks and whispers to BLOOM.

STELLA

I'm a little light on caring.

BLOOM pauses, her lip curls a little as she shakes her head. STELLA never fails to make her laugh.

BLOOM

Shhh, I'm trying to focus.

The TEACHER glares at STELLA.

TEACHER

Stella! if you have time for puns, maybe you should present your prowess.

STELLA shrugs.

STELLA

Fine by me, I'm more than happy to showcase my magical prowess.

STELLA winks at BLOOM as AISHA glares at her. STELLA walks to the front of the class as she cracks her knuckles and loosens up her neck. She takes a deep breath in as she claps her hand together. Her hands shimmer with light and she places her fingers on her temple and her eyes burst with golden light. A golden eye made of light appears on STELLA's forehead. A wave of light appears from the ground and spreads across the entire classroom and transforms it into a silent jungle. Everyone gazes in awe at the seamless projection with trees that touch the sky and parrots flying about. AISHA stares completely shocked as her confusion shifts into anger. BLOOM smiles as she quickly writes down STELLA's movement to perform this spell. STELLA removes her fingers from her temple as the eye mark vanishes and her eyes stop glowing. The classroom reverts to normal as STELLA gets a little dizzy but she regains her footing and takes a bow. Everyone cheers as BLOOMs affirmations can especially be heard. The TEACHER nods.

TEACHER

Very interesting use of telepathy magic. Excellent job. Now, who wants to follow that display of raw talent?

STELLA grins with satisfaction as she sits back down as the TEACHER looks around his eyes and settles on BLOOM.

Bloom, how about you grace us with your light demonstration.
