Evil Rises Again

Chapter 19

It has been a while since that day. Every day was a step forward for Riven. He was growing with the ability he has. Everyone has helped so much and he has grown better.

Riven was sketching in his notebook. He had to keep himself busy. Everyone was in class. He got to know the Winx girls better. Each day he got to see something new about them every day. Right now, he was hang out with Bloom.

"So, what are you drawing?" She asked.

He just shrugged and did not know what to say. He did not like to show what he was working on. It wasn't like a drawing. He was doing one of his passions. He loved drawing landscapes and creating new buildings area. He liked to create new buildings and make them new.

"Well, it's nothing. Don't worry about it." He told her.

He looked down at the pad and smiled. This was going to be the best project ever. He had to keep himself busy somehow. Bloom nodded and said,

"It's alright if you don't want to show me. I understand."

He smiled to her and left it at that. They did their things in silence. While waiting for Musa and the others. Right then Musa walked in and looked around. It was too quiet to her liking. Ever since Riven been staying in their room, he has been making so much noise because of his boredom. She walked further in and saw Bloom and Riven sketching in silence. They both were working on two different projects. Without Riven looking up he said,

"Hello Musa, dear. How was classes?"

She smiled and said,

"I hate when you do that. But classes were good."

"What brings you back here?" Bloom asked.

"I just came to change. I am meeting up with James. He feels neglected without my presents." She said with a little laugh.

Riven clenched his fist and tried to relax. Bloom saw that and placed a hand on his fist. He looked up and she smiled at him. Musa came out and said her goodbyes. Bloom looked at him and said,

"You alright?"

"It's weird. Musa and my past have been interesting and we have been through a lot." Riven said.

"It will all work out." Bloom told him.

Right then everyone came in and was making noise. Bloom just rolled her eyes and Riven was laughing. Sky looked at him and asked,

"What's so funny?"

"You guys just ruined the peace and quiet." Riven said smiling.

Flora came over to Riven and whispered,

"Time for therapy and healing."

Bloom got up and walked out of the door. Everyone else looked like they were doing their own thing. They did not want interrupt and bring up everything that has happened. Flora and Bloom took him to the nurse's area. The nurse was waiting for him.

They were trying to get strength back into his limbs. While they were doing therapy for his leg, Bloom did some more healing magic on his shoulder. Everyone was silence and you could hear a pin drop.

"Alright Riven, let's try something." The nurse suggested. "Let's see if you can move your limbs."

Riven took a deep breath and then tried to do something. But nothing was going like Riven wanted. He let out a sigh and then put on a brave face. Flora placed a hand on his shoulder and took him outside for some fresh air.

"Riven, you are going to be alright. You are the only one we know that has this drive." Flora explained.

He smiled to her and said,

"I hate being in there. I just want it to be different."

Flora smiled and then looked over to Bloom. She nodded and they took him to the forest. He smiled and thanked them.

"How about every day we do our therapy here. We will go slow at first and then try something harder later down the line." Flora suggested.

He smiled at her happily. This was going to change everything. He was somewhere peaceful and he felt safe here. He nodded in agreement. There were no words for thanking them on what they were doing for him. They got to work right then and there.
