The power of Winx

Too tempting

We were all sitting in Wizgiz's classroom and everyone had just finished groaning about having a pop quiz, and how unfair that was for him to do that and whatever, but he said the quiz would be over things we'd been going over recently in class. That it would be tomorrow. I was busy taking notes, while everyone else was busy complaining about the quiz and how they had other homework to do, other things to study for, and Bloom was asleep.

Good thing the teacher didn't catch her, but then again he's very short, unless he transforms into something or someone taller, otherwise I'm not sure he can even see past the first two rows if that. She only got caught after he left cause the girls and the other students in our class were laughing at the ink on her face, and then Griselda came in to have Bloom come with her to see Faragonda.

She thought she was gonna be in trouble, and I left with them. She tried to explain herself, and was good to tell the truth. That she didn't get much sleep last night. Where Griselda was quick to judge, Faragonda wanted to hear what she had to say. Thank you ma'am you see, for whatever reason our dreams have been connected, that we hear the same voice trying to speak to us in our sleep and it wakes us up at night. IDK how you do it Jade, how you are able to keep awake when you're just as tired as I am?

I've been practicing my own little magic, I knew I would had I not cast a stay awake spell on my drink that I had this morning. That was very resourceful of you Farrah. Faragonda tells me. But Griselda said we had quite the creative mind, which I wouldn't deny that I had, considering I'd always imagined myself as a fairy or a wizard or something like that. And now I'm living my dream doing things I've only ever dreamed about doing.

Faragonda thanked us both for coming down and excused us from our next couple of classes to go lay down and rest for a while back in our rooms. Even though Griselda didn't like that idea one bit, as soon as we left she asked her to call in the Advisory Committee right away, that she thought it was time she could tell Bloom and I a little bit more of our past.

On our way to our room we find Wizgiz looking for something, we see him drop an envelope and try to return it to him, but as we try to return it, the next thing we knew he was gone, and on it read "Pop Quiz" in our hands we held the answers to the pop quiz tomorrow. We raced to our dorm room where inside the girls were standing around Mirta in her pumpkin form and Flora was trying to use her magic to help change her back.

But nothing had been working. And then we came in to give them the "good news" Stella was complaining about how bad she did on another teachers exam and really needed this boost, but where it would be very tempting to open it and look at the answers, we convinced Stella it was a bad idea and that she shouldn't cheat.

While the others were arguing over what do about the envelope instead of opening it, and Bloom and I were already out cold. Bloom, Farrah, come to me, come to me girls. Who are you? Where are you? Come to me. Bloom Farrah. We're trying. Bloom Farrah?! When we woke up we were still in the room, waking up beside each other. With Griselda looking over us saying Faragonda wanted to speak with us.

We got up and followed her out, all of us thought this was about the envelope, but to our understanding it was not. She sat us down in her office, and asked us how we were doing. Grizelda is nowhere in sight. She tells her she believes it was time that we got to see more of our past. She mentioned Daphne we were both on board. She told us how she was the guardian of the dragon flame and the mystical ice, had guarded them both with her life. That she had been one of the historical nymphs of Magix.

She had us take hands and close our eyes as she held one hand over Bloom and one over herself as we then found ourselves at Lake Roccaluce where Daphne supposedly had lived all those years ago. We took each others hand as Bloom and I entered the cave, and we when we did we saw a bright light. That bright light turned into Daphne she had a big smile on her face and held out a jewelry box out to us, and inside once we opened it we saw two very different tiaras, but as soon as we reached out for them, the picture faded and we were back in the office.

Faragonda advised us to go back to our rooms and rest for a while again, but Bloom said we wanted to know more, but Faragonda said that, that journey had taken its toll on all of us, that she didn't have enough power in her at the moment to let us see more and that if we wanted to find out more, that it was up to us now to discover the rest on our own. When we went back the girls were worried that we'd gotten in trouble but we were lucky we weren't.

Now we had a different problem on our hands, we had to figure out what we were gonna do with said envelope. Envelope now, Daphne later. But now in our separate rooms we sit there trying to study for this quiz, but can't. All I can think about was what I saw, and about Jack. Bloom says (Sky) won't call her back and hasn't talked to her since our trip to Cloud Tower, and had been worried that he wasn't into her anymore.

But Jack had reassured me that he hadn't, that he just had needed time to himself, to think things over. I said what about him. That he at first hadn't spoken to me about our trip in the beginning either. That he'd pulled away after what Bloom and I had found out, but he reassured me that he'd been in shock and didn't know what he was supposed to think, and needed a couple days to clear his head. Which sounded like what (sky) was doing too, but taking longer about the ordeal.

Bloom came and knocked on my door, she had been going crazy about the whole thing too, that it wasn't until Kiko tried to convince her to call him herself that she had, but he didn't answer. Come in Bloom I told her opening my door for her. Can't think or study either huh? I asked her. Yeah, Brandon isn't answering his phone.

Well, I know someone who might. I said looking over at my phone. Snowball, will you bring over my phone please? And like a good little Snow Owl she is she swooped down onto my bed and picked my phone up with her talons. Thanks. I pick up the phone and I dial Jack's number, he answers. Hey Jade. Hi Jack, I really want to talk you, but Bloom would really like to talk to your brother, but he's not answering his phone.

Is he available? Uh.... He says turning his attention to (Sky) and Riven. As they're out dueling each other, when he hears one of the teachers yell at them to stop cause its just a practice run. But they had really been tearing each other a part. I'm sorry Snowflake, but she's gonna have to wait, he left his phone in his room, which is probably why he didn't answer, but right now isn't the best time he's kind of in a bad mood after fighting Riven.

But, I'll let him know she called. Say, while I've got you.... Yeah? I ask with a hint of hope. How's your arm doing? I frown a little and roll up my sleeve, to see the mark. IDK if its ever going away Jack, I *sigh* rolling down my sleeve. Hey listen I gotta go study for a pop quiz, but I'll talk to you again later. Ok? Sure thing, take your time bye Snow. Bye Jack.

I hang up my phone, and toss it at my bed. Trouble in paradise? She asks rubbing my back. It's not like that Bloom, I could sense in his voice there was more, but maybe he's just not confident enough yet to ask. But why its not like I'm gonna say no. I'd be crazy to do that. So? She asks me. I'm sorry Bloom he left his phone in his room he was busy dueling with Riven, and he says he's in a bad mood. Oh, she *sighs* ok thanks for trying.

After that's all said and done we head into the kitchen, to try and find a good place to hide the envelope, and we decide that if anyone of us gets too tempted not to open it, that she could without anyone knowing, and if any of us gets a higher mark on the quiz we'd know why. That this would be a hard choice for any of us.

And during the night everyone except for me was pretending to be a sleep, too tempted to go peek at what those answers were, everyone sneaking around, that they decided to just keep it on the nightstand until morning. Ok, so since Jade is the only one still asleep let's stick it on her nightstand.

In the morning we're running late, but when we get to class the teacher isn't there yet either but everyone else is covered in mud. And when Wizgiz comes in, all the other girls are scared and worried, that he thinks his plan worked perfectly, and when we give him our envelope the girls are all scared, but when he opened it he said the quiz was over now.

We were all very confused. He told us that the envelops were our quiz, that it was a temptation quiz, that our group all passed with the highest rank of an A+ and the others who had been too tempted to open were wearing their failures. And supposedly tomorrow we were supposed have some kind of parent teacher conference which for Bloom and I might be more easily said then done.

But until then.... Anyone see Pitch Black or his nightmares around? Cause tonight some kind of nightmare creature is afoot. Sweet dreams.
