Author's Note:
The reason why I'm making this a rewrite is because I'm not really happy how the story was going in the original Why Me? I felt like it wasn't going in the same path direction at first, and I guess I was dragging the story in a different direction and moving a bit too fast, and I also had no idea where I was going with it.
For sometime, I've been thinking about remaking this but never had the chance to do so.
I going to keep some of the things the same but in later chapters, but most of it will be different from what I've written from before.
Why Me?
Chapter 1: Going To Italy
The sun was shinning brightly in the afternoon skies. The air was humid and dry, like every summer in Gardenia. It was always the same quite town and ordinary with nothing to worry about greatly. No evil wizards. No witches. It was just an ordinary town with ordinary people living their normal lives. The same people rushing to their jobs. It is the same routine that she'd spent her summer here or going to the same resort as she goes every year along with her parents. But this time it wasn't the case for her to pack bags as she's going to spend her holiday vacation in Europe more specifically Italy and in the city of Rome.
She'd been excited about this trip from the night before. She couldn't wait to go to Rome, where she can spend her entire time there looking at interesting artifacts, and if she told Stella that...she would immediatly tell her "that's boring" or "not interesting when summer vacation is suppose to be all about the fun".
She couldn't help but stay up all night long watching movies, since she couldn't sleep at all.
And to top it all, this would her last and final year at Alfea and graduate as a guardian fairy, but in order for her to graduate she must find her birth parents and save her homeworld, and free her people.
"Bloom are you ready?" Vanessa asked.
"Yes, mom." She replied back. She looked at her bedroom for one last time. She was looking at all the pictures she had took with the Winx over the two years. She even had pictures of Sky. She knows it's not going to be forever, she's going to the wonderful country of Italy. The place she had always dreamed of before meeting Stella three years ago.
Bloom got her stuff. She had about two luggages and a half. Bloom was wearing her favorite summer dress. It was a baby yellow strapped dress with pink summer flowers and green petals on the dress with pink heels, her hair was down having her sunglasses on her head.
Her mother was wearing a red button up shirt with Hawaii flowers prints on it, with short jeans, Vanessa's brown hair is shoulder length; she had about three to four luggages with her and Mike together. Mike was getting the car ready; he was packing the things in the car.
He came in to help them to put their luggages in the car and now they were making sure everything is in place and nothing is missing or miss put.
Now, they were on the road, Bloom was excited to go Italy for summer vacation. She had a smile on her face. She knew to take many pictures while she's there to show Sky and the Winx her summer vacation. They probably had never seen a place like Italy. Now, they were on the plane taking off to Italy to Rome. Bloom was sitting next to her mother who was reading her magazine. Bloom had her iPod on and was listening to her music, and the plane took off.
...
The plane had finally landed in the city of Rome, which looked really amazing to get the view from high up in the air. It looked magnificent. She already felt really excited about making a few detours along the way, who wouldn't do that when they go to a foreign country.
Sure, to her in her eyes it wasn't like the Magic Dimension famous historical artifacts that they had for millennium years old. It couldn't be compared to a magical world that's been there for more than thousands of years.
Once they were out of plane in the airport Bloom noticed everything was in Italian though her mother knows Italian since she's a Italian descent. She was born in Italy and her parents later moved to America. There was a sign written: "Benvenuti in Italia!"
But to what she can presume it was: "Welcome to Italy!" It had to mean that. What else can it mean?
As she was in the cab along with her parents, she was looking at the amazing view from her window. The city was amazing. The people looked like they were enjoying their time and not too far off, she could see the ancient Rome building that was now one of the most hot spot tourist in the world to take a look at. She was already feeling that wild adventure stir inside her. She'd loved to explore new places and see where her heart's desires takes her.
Once the taxi reached its destination at the Five Seas Hotel and so Mike, Vanessa, and Bloom were unpacking their things in the hotel, but Mike and Vanessa left a bit early before the three of them would go to the restaurant to eat dinner. Bloom told her parents that she wanted to rest for a little while since she's a bit tired from traveling for about eleven hours in a plane.
She was sitting on the coach that was near the window and glanced at the outside world. The sun was starting to set, and the skies were illuminated with neon colors that was breathtaking as she captured the beautiful image with her phone. She was going to take many wonderful pictures and show it to her friends the Winx.
She glanced at the clock on her phone; it was almost seven. She needed to leave now.
She was in a elevator with two people: a man and a woman, who looked like they're in their early thirties, still appearing young.
The man had dark brown hair, chocolate colored eyes and tanned skin. He was wearing dark jeans with a red stripped button up shirt. He had his arm wrapped around the woman's waist. She could tell that they were a young married couple by seeing their wedding ring on their finger. The woman, she had bright red hair like hers with emerald eyes, and pale skin. She was wearing a beautiful dress in the color of spring green that reached just above her knees.
As she was going to press the button that would lead her down to the main lobby, she paused since she saw that the man's finger was reaching to touch the button that would lead to the main lobby as she was going.
"Down to the main lobby as well?" he'd asked.
"Yes." Bloom replied, though she could feel their gazes on her for some odd reason, but as soon as the elevator door opened, she walked out leaving the couple behind her; although unknowing that they'll be going to the same restaurant.
They were all down at the fancy restaurant that Vanessa knew of and now the waitress was taking their order. They were talking about nothing serious but rather about how beautiful the site of Italy was.
There was two people who were across from their table, the same people she saw in the elevator. What a coincidence it was for them to be here in the same exact place. But they weren't looking at her as she was at them. They were talking to each other and enjoying their time.
It reminder her of Sky, when she'd gone out on dates with him and had a wonderful dinner together.
They were inseparable.
As the night went on, they'd finally left the restaurant. The breeze of the cool air was just right, not too cold nor too dry or humid. It was just perfect. The moon's light was reflecting a bright sliver color across the sea, shimmering. The stars were out shimmering in the dark skies, lighting it up.
To say, everything was perfect until a man out of nowhere appeared and grabbed Bloom's hand and placing his hand on her mouth so she wouldn't dare to scream. Though, she felt angry that someone had sneaked up behind her and grabbed her.
"SHHH...you and your husband are endanger again, Marion..." the voice spoke out in a low whisper.
The word had trigged the young fairy's mind. Marion? No, it couldn't be! It's a mistake. It had to be.
"He's back again..."
Who's back again?
"The one who posses the darker flame..." his voice sounded dangerous when he mentioned the darker flame.
Darker flame? What's going on? If this person is saying about the dark flame, could it mean about something else... her thoughts instantly shattered, when a woman's voice spoke up. Bloom dared a glance to see it was the same woman with her husband that she'd seen earlier today. Was it a coincidence that they'd kept running into each other?
What in the name of the Great Dragon was going on around here?
"Hagen? What are you doing here?" her green eyes were glittering in the darkness, like magic. Her eyes soon fell on the young redheaded girl who he had holding her arm.
"Who is she?" the man asked, looking at her.
At this question being said, Hagen looked at the young girl who'd he presume was Marion, and he sensed the eternal flame was coming from within her. But the flame...it...couldn't be...but...then...how? Who's the girl?
The young fairy blinked her eyes a couple of times, adjusting all what's going on around her. "What's your name girl? And why do I sense the flame coming from you?" he asked the girl precisely.
At this, the man and woman stared at the young girl, their eyebrows arched directly at her.
Bloom's heart started to beat rapidly, her voice soft and low as she answered the man. "I'm Bloom."
She looked at them as the three of them whom gone silent completely as she told them her name. Why were they looking at her as if they'd seen a ghost passed by them? What did she say to make them stare at her like that?
Oh, crap! as she realized what she'd said.
It was the name she said to them that made them look at her like that. She felt like her stomach were filled with butterflies...
So what do you think of this remake? I don't think I'm going to make parent/child hating...I think it was one of the reasons I kinda of lost the direction in the original WHY ME.
But this time...it's going to be a little difficult for them to adjust to each other because of the long period timing they had between them, and the parents had thought she'd been dead for seventeen years is hard for them to see her alive and well and what they'd went through the years ever since Domino's downfall seventeen years ago.
Sky will visit Bloom in the next chapter. Also, please leave a comment below and tell me how I did? I would like to hear your thoughts about this remake, because I think I might've went too fast with the first version of Why Me?
Hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving! :)
