Scarlett And The Dragon Flame

4 Months Later

This is not goodbye. Remember, I'm always by your side. You're never truly alone, ever.

3rd Person

It's the next morning and all the Winx girls have left except for Bloom and Scarlett. Their once colourful dorm is now plain and empty, the only thing left is Bloom's bags. Scarlett has already moved her stuff into her old room. The two girls are sitting facing each other on opposite beds.

"Hey Bloom, make sure to call me if you need anything, even the littlest of things." Scarlett tells Bloom.

"Don't worry, I will. Will you be okay staying here?" Bloom asks her.

"Yeah, it will be quiet but Alfea is my home." Scarlett replies.

"We'll find your homeland Scarlett, we're not giving up." Bloom says with absolute certainty.

"I'm not giving up on your search either. You're closer than me to finding answers." Scarlett says back. They sit in silence for a while, just looking around at their dorm for the last time.

"Something's bothering you Scarlett. What's going on?" Bloom asks.

"It's just that... You know that you're the Princess of Domino. I have no idea who I am, I could honestly be Trix's long lost sister." Scarlett says emotionally, tears welling up in her eyes as she finishes. Scarlett hurriedly wipes away the tear that fell down her cheek.

Bloom walked over to Scarlett and pulled her into her arms and started stroking her hair. Scarlett leaned into Bloom's shoulder and put her face in her hands and cried softly.

Bloom couldn't help but worry about Scarlett at this moment. In all the years she has known Scarlett, she has never cried or let a tear slip. Bloom noticed that she always tries to make everyone else happy before herself, putting a lid over her feelings and a mask to hide the tears inside. Bloom feels guilty because Scarlett has been helping her search for her parents and not once has she said anything about herself and lack of identity. Scarlett never showed any reaction to the rumours circling about her and the Trix. Now Bloom realises that the uncertainty has been stressing her out. Bloom feels an urge to protect her and look after her.

"Don't worry about those rumours, even if your family happens to be the most evil people in the magic dimension, I'll still be there for you. I know who you are, you're my best friend and nothing is going to change that." Bloom reassures Scarlett.

"Thanks Bloom. Sorry for crying all over you." Scarlett says, sitting back up and wiping her eyes.

"Don't worry about it. I should get going." Bloom replies.

"Yeah, I'll walk you out." Scarlett replies. Bloom gathers her bag before whispering.

"Goodbye Alfea."

Bloom POV

I ring the doorbell to my adoptive parents house back in Gardenia. My dad opens the door.

"Mom, Dad!" I say as I hug them. I missed them, so much has happened since I last saw them.

Purr, the little kitten that I met on Graduation day, appeared in the air right in front of my Dad. Causing him to sneeze uncontrollably. Mom and I just laughed.

I'm telling Mom some stories that happened while I was away, while we were drying dishes.

"We all went to Magix City to eat some pizza, but then the Trix came out of nowhere and..." I say enthusiastically before I fumble with the plate and accidentally drop it. I smile sheepishly at Mom as she crosses her arms looking at me. I conjure a plate in my hands, with green vegetables as hair, two eggs as eyes and a strip of bacon for the mouth. I present it to Mom and she shakes her head at my antics.
