Rewriting the Truth [5]

I Believe, Do You?

The sun shone across Alfea as the afternoon came upon them, Frieda had just finished teaching her class and was walking through the halls silently, she had finally had the chance to talk to Sasha and Kim, other then apologizing the three talked about the events of last year; and how they all grew from it, Frieda was shocked to learn that the two still looked up to her; even after her mistakes.

Frieda was happy with Jackson gone the contract broke and she was free to rebuild all that was destroyed; although she wasn't the only one rebuilding, Stephen and Chelsie were working on rebuilding the Rainbow Council, although this time with people who were fair and judged based on the case, not their own feelings.

Life was good, things have finally calmed down; Frieda breathed in the fresh air as she stepped into the Alfea greenhouse, it was time for her to bring the rainbow gardenia back home, as long as it stayed at Alfea it would put everyone in danger; besides it didn't belong in Alfea.

Frieda pulled out a pot and filled it with dirt before transferring the rainbow gardenia into the pot, she then stood up with the pot in her hand and walked out of the green house. She had already warned the Winx that she would be going to Rainbow Valley to bring the rainbow gardenia back home, and that she'd probably be back by dark. With everything she needed Frieda teleported to Rainbow Valley, she walked through the village up to the palace.

Mommy look a young girl said standing on her balcony, it's the princess!

Princess Frieda, hello the woman said as she curtsied, please come in we were about to have lunch, you're more then welcome to join us.

Thank you, Frieda said but I should get going, she looked at the young girl and smiled, what's your name sweetheart?

Me the young girl said shyly, my name is Betty like my grandmother's name, my mom named me after her for my mother died in her home with no one but her daughters.

Betty, that was the name of the countess my mother choose Frieda said realizing who stood before her; on second thought, I'll come in for tea, but I can't stay long.

My name's Jasmine the women introduce herself to Frieda as she poured them tea; I was born to my mother the day of the rainbow war, my sister was born to my mother six years later, actually it was not far from the day when you disappeared for good.

Not long after my sisters birth my mom started to get sick, we kept it on the down low for as long as possible the last thing we wanted was for Selina to find out and separate us from my mother. My mother had been training me to become the lady of the house so that when she died Jasmine said, I would be able to take care of myself and my sister. Yet I failed, my mother was one of the rebels that tried to get Selina off the throne; so on the night that the Pied Piper came he took my sister, and I haven't seen her since that day, I don't even know if she's still alive.

I'm sorry about your sister and your mother's death Frieda said, many of us wish to erase the past, for a better future.

This is a really cool flower you have here Princess Frieda, Betty said looking at the plant, what type is it?

Thank you I'm sure it appreciates hearing that, Frieda said giggling knowing of how her flower highly appreciated compliments, this is the rainbow gardenia.

No way, Betty said in shock, I always thought that was a legend!

Nope it is very real Frieda said, which reminds me I have to go. Thank you for the tea, this won't be the last time we see each other, until then. She waved the two goodbye and continued on her way when she reached the palace gate she found an impatient Violete. Hi Violete!

You're fifteen minutes late, I was worried something happened Violete reprimanded Frieda as they walked through the gates and into the courtyard; especially if you're holding something with so much power; you scared me!
