Musa looked at Bloom, surprised with her. Bloom was... Calm. Maybe too calm, considering what was happening. Maybe she had an idea to help then, and was confident? Or didn't knew how serious the situation was?

Furrowing her brow, Stella glanced at Bloom and then around at the rest of her friends. It was clear as daylight that everyone thought that Bloom was acting strange - something that bothered Stella. So Bloom wasn't flipping out on them - wasn't that what everyone wanted in the first place? For Bloom to stop wallowing and being an emotional basket-case? To instead be strong and level-headed? Stella shook her head in mild wonder. Well, whatever anyone else thought, she was proud of Bloom for keeping it together.

Tune took a small sip of tea and placed her cup down with a clink. "So," she started. "If we have to fight Flora, even if it goes against the ettiquette of being best friends, do you think we can win? What attacks can we use against someone who has nature on her side?"

"It's not nature so much as it is Darkar," Layla replied. "I mean, under normal circumstances, we all know that Flora isn't the strongest fairy - but with Darkar feeding her power . . . who knows? We're just going to have to plan something big - something that will combine all of our powers. Like convergence. Remember how we learned about that in class a while back? It'd be difficult to accomplish, but if we could, I think we would be able to beat her."

"I just hope that we don't need someone to profess their love. Because honestly, she's not in love love with Helia and then there's Professor Fickle," Tune said, sipping her tea.

"Professor Fickle also known as Professor Eww!" Stella exclaimed. Momentarily forgetting the gravity of the situation, Stella continued, her nose wrinkled in disgust, "I honestly do not know what Flora sees in him. Not only is he practically ancient but he's just so strange. Of course, I still feel bad for Flora though - you know, especially considering how he brought his other lady friend to the dance." Pausing for a moment, Stella frowned, as she asked, "But you don't think that her unrequited feelings or whatever for the Professor made her, you know, go dark?"

Tune's cup went down with a firm clink, nearly shattering the teacup. "He broke so many rules of ettiquette with that stunt," Tune said. "Bad enough that several were breached when he started to entice Flora. You saw the way he was looking at her. Honestly," she said. She picked her cup up and took a long sip of it.
"Although, you do raise a good point. What if Darkar used that against her, promised her that she'd be Professor Palladium's if she served him or something like that?"

Stella tilted her head as she thought for a moment. Finally, she asked, biting her lip, "Do you think Darkar would stoop so low as that?" Shaking her head, Stella held up her hand as she continued, "Don't answer that. Of course he would. But would Flora really fall for that? I mean, sure, she's head over heels for the Professor - but it's not like she's stupid or anything. She would be able to see that Darkar was just using her . . . right?"

Tune nodded. "One would hope but Darkar's so powerful," Tune said. "He could be holding her tightly under his power." She drooped a bit. "I'm worried about her and the seer. Forget Prince Fickle."

Professor Eww? Musa knew that the situation was serious, but she couldn't help but giggle as Stella said that.
''He made her think that she hates us or something... I think? This fight is going to be so hard...''She said, sighing.''I mean, Flora isn't strong on her normal state but... I think that her powers could mean trouble, and with Darkar making her stronger...''

"You know what, you guys?" Stella began, crossing her arms. "I think we should give up on planning and just go to Shadowhaunt already. I mean, obviously plotting isn't working, and the longer we wait, who knows how much more powerful Flora could be getting! Time is of the essence. We need to attack while they're still vulnerable . . . well, I guess Darkar is never really vulnerable - but he must be thinking that we will take a long time to plan a rescue mission. We can surprise him by showing up sooner - it could work to our advantage, don't you think?"

"Look, I know you guys think that I should be really upset right now. But that isn't going to solve anything. As for the teachers they are going to forbid us to go. Even if they let us go only Stella, Layla and I could go anyways, we were the only ones to pass that stupid test. Layla was right when she said that combining our powers would be the only way to stop him." Bloom said, finally something she was really good at; planning.
