The Vampire Fairy•Sky of Eraklyon

11

Stella had refused to speak to Talia about her mum, choosing instead to go in search of Sky.

So Talia found herself wandering outside, enjoying the scent of the rain sprinkling down.

If only she'd been born a water fairy.

After some time she got bored and headed to the winx suite, deciding to update the girls on the strange things her aunt had said in Dowlings office.

She reached their doors just as Sky did.

"Hey."

"Hey."

They reached for the door at the same time, causing Talia to step back with a chuckle.

"Go for it."

Sky smiled, opening the double doors.

They found Aisha, Terra, and Musa inside, seemingly in a serious discussion.

"Guys, is Bloom here?"

The girls looked up, and Terra quickly adopted an accusing expression.

"Did Silva tell you what was happening today? He must've."

Sky seemed thrown, his eyebrows raised.

"Is this the suite drama Bloom was talking about?"

"There is no suite drama."

Talia rolled her eyes at them.

"OK, I'm so lost right now."

"Dowling's assistant died, the faculty think a fairy did it."

She explained to Sky, scratching her head awkwardly as his expression grew more shocked.

"They held the assembly to find out which fairy, but they didn't because he or she wasn't there, so now we don't believe or trust literally anyone."

Sky's jaw dropped.

"Shit. Beatrix."

They split up, Sky and Talia going in search of Bloom, the remaining fairies going to inform the faculty.

Bloom wasn't answering her phone, Talia texted, Sky called, nothing.

When they reached the east wing they found it empty, and Sky ran a stressed hand through his hair.

"We've gotta find Riven he might know where Beatrix is."

"Sky this doesn't feel right."

Talia said chasing after him.

"Beatrix can be a bitch but she's not a murderer."

Sky sent her a disbelieving look.

"Either way she wasn't at the assembly, she must know something."

Talia grumbled, but kept his pace, following him to his dorm.

Sky through his door open so fast it hit the wall and flew back at her, she barely caught it as Sky confronted his roommate.

"Where is she?"

"Who?"

Riven asked with a glare, his arms still in a defensive position from the door flying open.

"The unstable sex addict leading you around by your dick. Where is she?"

Riven scoffed, and Talia crossed her arms, irritated by Sky's accusations towards Beatrix.

"I don't know. Beatrix isn't surgically attached to me. Why?"

"I'm looking for Bloom."

Riven quickly swung his arms in a silencing motion, but Sky didn't catch on in time.
