Landing on Isis, Bloom stepped out and a small army of men marched onto the ship, taking two of each of their luggage, a blank, almost numbed, expression carved into their features. Weird, was the only thing Bloom thought of it. She pushed the thought to the back of her mind as she looked around the snowy planet, metal engines placed around perfectly.

"Come dear. I will show you your living quarters" Brianna spoke softly to her and lead her through the palace, walking slowly so Bloom could get a good look at her surroundings. She pushed her hands inside her fluffy sweater and shivered more from anxiety and the feel of her powers weakened significantly but just enough to keep her from dying or fainting.

They stopped in front of a shiny metal door with a red door knob. Brianna opened it with a key and pushed open the door. "Here you are, sweetie. If you need anything, there's a button that will send a maid or butler to your cater" she placed they key in her hand and left.

Bloom peeked inside and saw her suitcases there. She looked around the dim room and shivered more. She closed the door, locked it and went through her clothes to put on more layers of pants and sweaters. Sitting on the bed that was surprisingly soft, she noticed the button the Queen mentioned and pressed it.
"At your service, Princess. What is your request?" An older man answered.

"U-Uhm... anything hot...p-please" she stuttered out, feeling her skin almost freeze and crack under these temperatures.

"Of course, Princess. Sending some things up to you" he pressed a few buttons and she heard a ding at her door. Getting up, she opened the door and saw a few cups of hot chocolate, thick blankets and things to make a fire with on a wheel table. She pulled it inside her room and quickly downed the hot liquid, sighing, feeling it course through her body.

She grabbed the wood and fire starter, kneeled by the fireplace, throwing the wood in and sparking it, blowing on it gently until it grew to become a steady blaze. She took off her layers, one by one until she could suffice with a sweater and leggings comfortably. Going over to her bed, she put the new coverings on and crawled under them, looking at the fire.
She fell asleep to a crackling fire and sweet dreams filled her night.

The next morning when she woke up, her fire was still going and she saw breakfast next to her. Sitting up, she stretched and slid out of the bed, going to the bathroom, grabbing some clothes in her way and took a hot shower and brushed her teeth. She changed into a turtle neck and jeans with leggings under that had wool on the inside, finishing it off with wooly boots. She brushed through her red hair and pulled on gloves, fluffing her hair over her shoulders and back.

She ate the breakfast of bacon, hot tea, and waffles. Grabbing her phone, she looked through the messages via notification bar and read through paragraphs of anger and heartbreak from her friends. The only one not seeming to have any resentment towards her being Flora. Looking back and forth between her phone that held her name and the door, which she kept locked, she braced herself and hit the call button, pressing her phone to her ear.

One ring

Two rings

"Hello?"

"F-Flora? I-it's Bloom. D-dont let anyone else hear us, please"

"...O-ok hun. What's going on?" Bloom heard a door closed meaning Flora walked away from the girls.

"So much Flora" she broke down in tears.
"It's ok sweetie. Talk to me"

A knock sounded on Bloom's door. "I-I gotta go" she hung up before Flora could say anything else and got up, answered the door, peeking out of it where Jared stood with a scowl on his face.
