House of Memories (Book 2)

Chapter 59- It's always Bloom

For many people, Music is a very important part of their lives. It's a part of them and it accompanies them everywhere. Some would say that it's a lot easier to concentrate with it. Others use it to relax and get away from the real world. Music is a synonym of peace.

But for the Alfea Students that wasn't the case. Not when the only music they've been able to listen to is the sound of fighting and roaring acompanied by a chorus of agonising screams and cries.

The Specialists and even the Witches of Cloud Tower had united to protect Alfea and its students against the daytime Tar Monsters of Hell sent by the one they once considered their ally. They stopped letting the Fairies help them during the fight since too many of them were dying. They were the monsters main targets therefore they had to be protected, so the Specialist and Witches created an alliance against the one they now called the Fairy of Carnage.

No one hated that title more than Robin. For days they walked around the halls of Alfea furious and glaring at everyone who used that name with loath and disgust. Those stares were reciprocated by the students because, since the day of Ebony's death they had shown to be on Ruby's side. If it weren't for Faragonda stopping the Fairies, they would've handed Robin, the Ghouls, Kaylus, Riven and Liam to the monsters. Not even the rest of the Specialist squad, or the Winx, or the Pixies moved a muscle to protect them, since they had adopted the same mindset as the others. Ruby was a murderer and whoever was on her side was a traitor that should be exiled.

"It looks like we're back at the medieval times." Robin mumbled, having dodged a literal tomato that a Fairy threw at them.

"I'll take care of her." Kaylus said, a sociopathic smile stretching out on her face as she summoned super glue on one hand and a bucket filled of something on the other one. Robin was sure they saw something moving inside that bucket.

"No matter how much I would've loved to see that happening you can't do it, Kay." They said sighing. "Everyone already wants us dead we can't give them any more reasons to want that."

"Ok, then." Kaylus shrugged, making the objects disappear in her hands. "I'll think of something less messy and then frame someone for it."

"Murder."

"No, Python." Robin said.

"Yeah, since when is murder a clean job?" Kaylus asked.

"If you choke the life out of them it would be clean."

"Well, well, if it isn't the traitors." A voice said from behind the group making them stop. 

They turned around and were met by the ones they once thought were their friends. The Winx.

"Us traitors? Why don't you take a good look in the mirror Stella." Robin asked the blonde who had been the one to speak.

"I already did. It only reflected beauty and charm." Stella said with a smug smile on her face, flipping her hair behind her back.

"Not to mention wrinkles." Garry mumbled, making his friends snicker quietly.

"Can I help you girls with anything?" Robin asked, glaring at them.

"Yeah, for starters you can start by waking up and realizing that you're on the wrong side." Musa said.

"Funny, I was about to say the same thing to you girls."

"Robin, why do you defend Ruby?" Bloom asked with her quiet and sweet voice that made Robin want to throw up. How dare she pretend to be the victim there?

"Why aren't you defending her? You're her sister." Kaylus asked.

"Kay, she's a murderer." Amore said.
