Evil Rises Again

Chapter 2

"I would agree with you girls. I have sent a message to Saladin, but I have not heard anything back from him." Faragonda said.

"What do we do then?" Flora asked concerned.

"I want you girls to go to Red Fountain and see what is going on." Miss Faragonda said.

We all nodded and left Miss Faragonda's office. None of us said anything while we went to Red Fountain to get some answers. It didn't take that long but you could feel this eerie feeling in the air. Something was wrong but we did not know what it was.

We all just stopped right in our spot. We looked around thinking this was some kind of joke. But right where Red Fountain was supposed to be, it was not there. There was no sign of Red Fountain was there.

"Isn't it supposed to be here?" Roxy asked.

"Yes, this doesn't make sense. My calculations say that this is where it was and supposed to be." Tecna said looking at her PDA.

Flora landed onto the ground and looked around. She walked over to the trees and started to use her powers to get answers. Roxy went to find some animals to see if they have seen anything. You can always trust nature to give us answers.

"Flora, do have anything?" I asked landing and walking to her.

"No, they are not talking. All I know is something bad happened here. Something really dark." Flora said sadly.

Roxy came back. Before I could ask she shook her head no. It seems like the forest is scared of who did this to Red Fountain and did not want to tell. I looked to Musa and saw that she was kind of pale and was shaky.

"Musa, are you alright?" I asked.

"What? I don't know but I just have this feeling. I don't know what it is." Musa said scared.

We all split up to get some answers. Since the boys were here a week earlier then they would have gone into Magix. I walked up to my job at the White Horse. I saw Madam Gradel and Charlie there. The juice bar was empty, I guess they just opened up for the year.

"Madam Gradel," I said walking up to her.

"Bloom, how nice to see you? Are you here to get your schedule for work?" She asked.

"It's good to see you as well. I have actually came here to know if you have seen any of the Red Fountain students lately." I asked.

"I saw them last week on the shore but after that I have not seen any of them lately. I hope that helped." She said smiling.

I thanked her and left to get back to Alfea to hear what the others have found out. Once I got back Alfea the other girls were already there. I walked into Headmistress Faragonda's office and asked,

"What have you found out?"

"Well, the week that they were back was smoothly and nothing out of the normal but the day before all the schools were supposed to start they were going to do some drills and procedures of safety." Tecna said.

"Madam Gradel said that they guys were at the shore that week they came back and now she has not seen anyone." I explained.

"I got some news!" Stella said running into the office panting. I don't think I have seen Stella so out of breath before.

"What is it?" Flora asked.

"I went to my favorite shop, the one with Tracy owns with the cute top and skirt." Stella started to get off topic.

"Stella, focus." Musa said.

"Oh yeah. Any ways she said that she heard that they had an emergency drill on that day about an attack." Stella said.

"Oh no. That can't be good. What happened?" Roxy said.

"She did not know. She said the boys ran out of Magix so fast that you would have to not blink to see them. But she said that she saw their faces and there was worry on them. She told me that it was only the teachers and freshman in the school before they got alert." Stella explained trying not to freak out.

None of us know what to think. We are so concerned about the boys. We went back to where Red Fountain was at and found witches there. We slowly got down and stood right in front of them.

"What are you doing here?" Musa screamed.
