Korra crossed her arms while sitting on the edge of the desk in an empty classroom along with the other Winx. She grinned that Aisha was doing better now in her casual clothes with her pixie. “Now then, I want you all to come up with a plan to get the pixies back. Fairies and pixies had always had a close bond. So, we must free them at any cost.” Faragonda spoke as she stood in front of the blackboard.

         “So, does that mean we get to skip class?” Stella piped up, her figure leaning forward. “Really? This isn’t the time, Stella.” Wan’s lips thinned, “This is serious.”

         “It’s a dangerous mission. Why not send the professors? Wouldn’t that make more sense?” Stella retorted.

         This earned Stella a bunch of groans and head shaking. Wan slammed his head on the desk. “No, it’s alright. Stella has raised a good point. We can’t be there at once, plus we also must protect the school in case anything happens.” Faragonda said.

         “So, it’s basically up to us,” Korra said, unfolding her arms and leaning back. “Why did you call us then?”  Kaiyo questioned.

“You all showed great skill in the fight against the Trix, but now the pixies are the concern. We shouldn’t fight an unknown enemy.” Faragonda explained. 

“So, no direct confrontation?” Bloom piped up.

“Yes, this being absorbs magic energy. It can turn all your powers against you. Aisha is your guide, as she is the only one who has been there. I want you all to find clues about who this being is. Now follow me.” Faragonda walked out of the classroom. One by one, the Winx gets up to follow her. While they walked in the hallways, the headmistress explained further, “Now, I must say that some of you will not be on this mission.”

“Wait, what?” Bloom ran to catch up to the older fairy, “Wouldn’t it be better if we all go?”

“Some of your powers are better suited for missions than others. Bloom, Kaiyo, Stella, Wan, and Korra will go on the mission.” 

“What about Tecna? She got techno-magic.” Flora asked, “it will be utilized here,” Faragonda explained

  “But why only us four?” Bloom spoke up. 

  “Yeah?” Kaiyo gulped, and her palms began to sweat. “Why do I have to go on a terrifying mission?”

  “Kaiyo’s aura sensing is valuable for this mission. She could tell when dark forces were there and could, in theory, track the pixies.  Stella's light magic can be useful against dark forces. Korra and Wan’s elements in both bending and magic are resourceful, especially within the earth. Bloom has the Dragon, the most powerful magic of them all.”

“But what about Flora’s plants, or my music, or Tecna’s technology? Aren't they worth anything too!” Musa's nose flared.

  Faragonda in the hall casts a spell that puts all the Winx in a cave. Flora uses her magic, but there are no living beings. Tecna couldn’t use her technology magic as effectively. Finally, Musa causes a cave-in with her sound waves. Faragonda clapped her hands, stopping the magic simulation, and lent a hand on Musa’s shoulder, “I’m not saying your magic isn’t important, Musa. All of you will have your chance. But some situations require different magic.”

         Faragonda gave Aisha four light beans to place in her pocket before the group was about to leave. “Make sure you only use it during emergencies,” Faragonda explained. "Besides, you six already have a support team." Professor Saladin smiles as the four specialists ride into the grounds. One specialist took off her helmet to flip her hair. “Asami!” Korra smiled, but then it dropped when a certain blond prince took off his helmet, and Korra’s mood dropped quickly, “Fuck.” Korra grumbles.
