On Pyros, Sky watches the hard shell, covering Bloom's entire body, glow a soft orange hue; in Alfea, Stella was recovering

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Stella, please wake up," Brandon pleaded to the unresponsive fairy.

"Good news!" Timmy said, Tecna and him coming through the doorway. Brandon stood up, keeping a hand on his fiancé's hand. Riven and Musa came in after them.

"She's going to wake up in less than 30 seconds, Tecna said smiling as she recited her calculation. Once she finish, Stella's eyes flutter open.

"Brandon?" she asked, moaning as she got into a sitting position. Tears canes down Brandon's face as he hug her fiercely. Stella wrap her arms around his neck and kiss him on the lips, drawing comfort into her heart.

"I thought I lost you," Brandon said shakily. Stella kiss him again. "But I'm here, Brandon. . . . Where's Bloom?" she asked, looking around. Brandon slap his hand against his forehead.

"Ah, shit! I totally forgot about Sky and Bloom!" Brandon started to pace the room. Stella look at him in confusion.

"Please, tell me you know where they are?" Brandon shook his head sadly. Just then Flora burst through, gasping for breath.

"Guys! I know where Bloom is!" Flora managed to say between gasps for breath. Everyone look at her. Flora look up and look behind her, relieve to see Helia. He was carrying a map, a map of the universe.

"Tecna, scan it, on all possible realms," Helia announced. Tecna nodded and began to scan it. Four realms pop up: Magix, Earth, Domino, Pyros.

"Pyros!" Stella squealed. Flora nodded in agreement.

"That is where I felt something powerful there," she commented.

"But it could be anything beside Bloom," Tecna added. Flora shook her head.

"Look at Pyros closely, there are waves of flames coming from there. Who else would it be?" Flora pointed her finger at the picture of Pyros.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Meanwhile, the cocoon shell was starting to crack, letting flames out. It soon began to spread until the cocoon was in flames, revealing a glowing figure. She got up slowly, tilting her head to one side, surveying the room.

"So, she is there, then. What do we do?" Timmy asked, readjusting his glasses.

"We'll bide our time, when the time comes, we'll go get them," Brandon answered. Stella started to protest but Brandon have her a cold look, shushing her from protesting.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The glowing figure walk along the cabin, tracing her fingers across the wooden walls. With a gasp, the figure double over to the ground, making dragon sounds. Suddenly, the figure stop glowing revealing Bloom. She has on a floor-length, low-cut white gown that was made with very loose materials. Her hair was loose, glistening in the warm sunlight. She was not wearing anything on her feet. Her only accessory was a white peony, pin loosely into her hair.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"What about Darcy and Stormy? They're witches!"

"They gave us their word Stella. You saw how bad it was for Stormy when Icy chose Electra over her own sisters."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Bloom left the tree house quietly, unaware her husband just came in with medicines from Mia. The bag drops to the floor, the medicines spilling across the floor. He stood there for a moment before rushing out.

"Bloom!" he called out, stopping outside of the forest before running through it.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Did we miss anything?" Aisha asked. Everyone turn around and were happy to see her, Roxy, Nabu, and James.

"You made it," Helia said.

"Of course we did," Nabu joked. Everyone laugh before they became serious.

"Any news on Electra?" Brandon asked. James nodded.

"At least 30 realms have been attack. At least 1,000,000 have been kill and 500,000 have been injure," James answered. "More realms are becoming frantic and thinking about surrendering. They believe if they find Bloom, their realms would be spare from whatever disaster the other realms had already face. There are bounty hunters looking for her. Samara has sent out 3 groups of the Erakylon elite guards and King Oritel and Queen Mariam have sent 1/8 of their army and they are leading both troops."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Sky ran, calling her name, searching every spot until he came to a dirt path leading to a cliff. He knelt down, inspecting the ground. His fingers trace over footprints. Fresh footprints. He sprinted down the path. The trees seem to close around him until he came to the edge of the forest.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"But we have the advantage, remember," Roxy said. Aisha nodded in agreement.

"Yeah, as long as nobody knows where they are, they're safe," she added.

"Um, we forgot about those bounty hunters," Stella said, rubbing her arms.

"Oh, right...um...well...they have to get through us first," Brandon poorly explained. That did not work, Stella started to cry.

"But what would happen if they force us to reveal the answer!" Stella cried, hiccuping. Brandon pull her over, wrapping his arms around her, comforting her. He kiss her forehead.

"We won't let that happen, right guys?"

He was answer by the guys' cheers.

"That is a Specialist Rule: Don't give away a comrade's location," Riven added confidently. Musa beam at him and gave him a passionate kiss.

"That is probably the smartest I heard you said all day," Musa muttered.

"Get a room you two," Timmy said.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Sky shield his eyes from the intense sunlight until they became accustom to it. He saw a woman dress in a white and has red hair. The woman turn around and let out a small gasp.

Sky walk over to her until he was a step away from her. They stood there in silence, neither one moving. A wind blew in ruffling the grass and trees. Sky took a deep breath and was about to say something but the woman beat him to it.

"Sky?" she asked. She then, started to cry. Sky close the space and held her.

"Don't you dare do that to me again. Promise me, you won't run off like that?" Sky asked her, tears streaming down his face.

"You weren't there when I woke up," Bloom cried. Tears were streaming down her face. They cry and kiss each other until they both calm down.

"Are...are you alright?" he asked. Bloom nodded, putting her arms on her very pregnant stomach. "How long was I---"

"About a month," Sky answered her. Bloom broke away, horrified.

"I was healing for a month now?" Bloom stared at him.

"You don't understand, it actually was 3 months," Sky sighed.

"3 months, but then, the babies will be born soon. This is too soon, Sky, I'm not prepare for this!" Bloom couldn't believe it! 3 months, 3 whole months, wasted.

"You'll be fine, I already took care of that. We are prepare for any situation."

"Sky, I can't fight, not in my condition, my magic won't work except when I use it in defense...Sky, I don't know what to do right now."

Sky smile softly.

"Well for starter, why don't we get something to eat, you need your strength when the time comes," he extended his hand out to her.

Bloom slowly smile and took his hand. As they left, they were unaware group of people watching them. The bounty hunters have arrive and unknown to them, they'll won't make it out alive.
