Bloom pressed herself as close to the mur as she possibly could. Her breathing was heavy, she had to slow it down, and fast.
They did this every year.
Each an selecting a new target.
And they were gonna do it again this an too.
And this year. This an it was Bloom’s turn. Frankly she didn’t know what kind of Christmas tradition this was. Nor did she know how it came to be.
“Come on Bloom, toi can’t hide forever.” Icy called.
She underestimated Bloom. She could hide for hours and hours. She’d hide all Christmas eve if she had to.
“I don’t get it.” Stormy pondered. “She was here a seconde ago.”
“Don’t worry ladies, we’ll find her.” Icy declared.
Bloom made her way around the corner and slipped down the hall.
“I could have sworn she was in here too.” Bloom heard Darcy mutter. Her voice was now distant.
Bloom gave a sigh of relief, before crashing into Stella.
“Stella…don’t toi dare!” Bloom shouted.
“Hey everyone look who I caught!” Stella announced.
“Why!?” Bloom asked with a laugh. “You’re such a traitor.”
“What can I say, we can’t let a good tradition die.” Stella giggled.
“Sure we can.” Bloom insisted.
“Funny.” Icy smirked. “Last an this was ‘the best Christmas game ever’, what changed?”
“The fact that I’m going to be tied to the tree, not Riven.” Bloom replied.
“You picked the red and silver ornament dear.” Flora pointed out. “Fair is fair.”
“How did this even start?” Bloom asked.
“Go down without a fight and I might just tell you.” Icy replied. “I was there when the tradition was first made.”
Bloom sighed. “Alright, fine. I’m probably going to get captured again anyways, may as well get a story out of it.”
“That’s the spirit!” Tecna called.
Musa led her to the Christmas tree, pulled out a strand of lights and proceeded to tie her to the tree. Right after Layla add a touch of tinsel and a few ornaments to her hair.
“I look ridiculous.” Bloom muttered.
“You got that right!” Stormy agreed.
“My story?” Bloom glanced at Icy.
“A while back, a few years before toi got here, the two headmistresses…and one headmaster…were in this sort of competition. toi know the usual, trying to see which school was the best. They had various contests; school and arbre decorating, gingerbread baking, so on. Needless to say it was one of those silly three way ties. So Griffin tied the other two to their trees, decorated them, and declared her victory. The an after Faragonda got her hands on one of Griffin’s best professors.” Icy paused. “After that it became a school wide thing, one of the Alfea students decided to add the whole ‘whoever picks the special ornament gets to be the target’ thing. Personally I enjoyed the free for alls.”
“Is that really what happened?” Bloom asked as Flora hung a little mistletoe on her ear.
“You look precious!” Flora clapped her hands together.
“Yes, that’s really what happened.” Griselda frowned. “That an was the start of the most horrendous Christmas tradition ever.”
“She’s just amer because we got her on the third year.” Saladin whispered to Bloom.
“Who was the first student to get tied to the tree?” Bloom asked.
Darcy pointed at Icy.
The witch frowned. “Darcy was the first to step under the mistletoe. Stormy wasn’t too far behind.”
“We don’t talk about that!” Stormy shouted.
“I miss when everyone got excited for the presents…not this.” Griselda grumbled.
“Bitter.” Saladin muttered in a sing song voice.

[Author's note] there will be swearing in this and a tint of blood and violence, just letting toi all know now.
Icy, leader of the Trix led the way into a dark room. A male voice a dit "about time toi showed up." Stormy was about to make a reply but Darcy stopped her. Darcy replied "sorry to keep toi and Lust waiting, we had some things to do." Lust asked "did toi find Fullmetal?" Icy shook her head and replied "no, but don't worry. We will find him." Envy a dit "but don't kill him he's an important sacrifice." Darcy rolled her eyes and a dit "we need to make a deal." Lust nodded and replied "we will help toi destroy the Winx once and for all, but toi can't let them help the brat find The Philosopher's Stone." The Trix nodded and Icy a dit "Don't worry we help you." Icy shook Lust's hand and the deal was made.
