Headmistress Faragonda

I walked into the infirmary to check how Emalia is doing. I've heard from Nurse Ofelia that Kekipi and Serenity were around Emalia the whole day. Poor pixie and Gynoshpinx is so worried about their young fairy, the bond between a fairy, a fairy animal, and pixie is such a beautiful thing to witness. I walked to Emalia's cox and saw Serenity changing out Emalia's warm washcloth, placing it in the cold water bowl next to her cox. Kekipi was using his mouth to pull the covers over Emalia even though she was wide awake with a smile on her face. Emalia smiled brightly at me when she noticed I was here. I can assume that Serenity didn't tell the news to Emalia about what happened to her.

"Hello, Headmistress!" Emalia beamed.

"Hello, Emalia. I'm glad you're awake!" I beamed back, truly happy to see my student awake.

"Headmistress, do you know what happened to me because my head is beating like Musa's magic drum during her rock and roll practice!"

I sighed, taking an empty spot to sit on Emalia's cot. Kekipi now sadly rested on Emalia's lap while Serenity placed the cooling wet cloth on Emalia's forehead. Serenity had a sad look on her face as well, taking her place next to Kekipi in Emalia's lap. Lastly, I looked at Emalia, who had a confused look on her face; it truly hurt me to tell Emalia the news of what happened to her.

"Well, my dear, what happened was you lose control of your powers and yourself during Trix's attack on Red Fountain," I started while Emalia's mouth was shaped into an O.

"I did wh- what happened to Helia? Did I do something horrible to Falen?" Emalia asked with her amber-orange eyes running wild like a lot of questions were popping up in her mind. "Please tell me that Falen and Helia are okay?"

"Helia and Falen are okay, but you almost crushed their Crow ships during your time of losing yourself and your powers,"

Emalia leaned onto the small white headboard of the cox. I can tell she was speechless as her eyes wandered outside to see the beautiful white clouds and the chirping of the magical birds outside her window. Serenity flew over to Emalia and hugged her cheeks. I saw Serenity's tranquil powers washed over Emalia while Kekipi walked over to Emalia's chest and snuggled there. Emalia used one of her hand and gently hugged Serenity while her other hand rubbed Kekipi's electric blue fur as she lightly smiled at them.

"Can you tell me how I lost control of my powers?" Emalia asked as her small smile disappeared.

"From the report of Falen and a Helia being the same, they both said you were absorbing Trix's magic, then out of nowhere it exploded, and you weren't yourself afterward," I explained to Emalia.

"So, how did they stop me?"

"Riven has to shoot you with one of the monster tranquilizer darts to subdue you, Emalia,"

Emalia's eyes got glossy as she began to stare off into space. Serenity's magic washed over Emalia again, but I couldn't tell if it worked or not since Emalia's eyes were still glossy. Emalia got out of her train of thoughts and stared at me with those bright lost eyes. I hate seeing those glossy sad looks in my students' eyes, but Emalia's eyes almost shattered me.
