The Vampire Fairy•Sky of Eraklyon

3

The entire Winx suite was settled on a quilt beneath a tree, seemingly in a serious conversation.

Terra had a nervous expression and wiggled away as Talia set down next to her. The blonde gave the earth fairy a dark look, and the earth fairy squeaked a quick apology.

The boogeyman of Alfea.

"They're banishing Silva to Polaris."

Musa told Talia quickly, catching her up.

"It's happening tomorrow. Andreas is leading the transfer."

Stella confirmed, reading off her phone.

Each of the royal blonde fairies had contacts within the capitol, but apparently Stella's were better, as Talia had heard nothing from hers.

"We have to do something."

Bloom stressed, the only of the group standing, and pacing.

"Historically, letter-writing campaigns
have proved very effective."

Terra said in a small unsure voice.

Everyone looked to her disbelievingly.

"But they take time."

The earth fairy trailed off.

"I'm not so much thinking in the letter-writing campaign realm. I'm- I'm thinking something active."

Bloom admitted.

"Felony-wise, going against Solaria is a pretty big step up from anything we got into last term."

Musa mused aloud. Talia agreed.

"Going against Solaria is not something you get into."

Stella argued.

"Yeah- Even if we thought we wanted to, the Solarian Guard is brutal. They're focused and they-"

"And it's Silva."

Talia glared as Bloom interrupted her. She got quite sick of being spoken over with this group.

"He is our only other link to Dowling. To how things used to be."

"If we let them banish him, how long's it gonna be before they find a reason to do the same with my dad?"

Terra added.

"Just to be clear, we're talking, like, full jailbreak, right?"

Musa clarified unsurely.

"Obviously, we can't tell Aisha, because she will try and stop us."

Stella grumbled.

As if Aisha was the one with invisibility magic, she appeared quickly, joining their circle.

"Yeah. Bloom already told me."

"If there's one thing I learned last term, it's listen to Aisha, 'cause she's she's usually right."

Bloom grumbled.

Talia couldn't believe what was happening. Aisha was agreeing to this? The smart one?

"For the record, I was against releasing Rosalind
because it was a dumb idea. This, well, it's still a dumb idea, but at least if I plan it, it'll work. So, care to put your magic where your mouth is?"

"I can't be a part of this."

Talia blurted suddenly. All eyes turned to her.

"Rosalind would know it was me."

She clarified.

Bloom looked angry.

"What- you think she won't suspect me? Or Stella?  You think you're too special to put yourself on the line to do the right thing?"
