When the Winx girls finished their set for the outdoor concert they heard the crowd shouting.
"ENCORE, ENCORE, ENCORE!"
"Girls what should we do? I don't think we have anymore songs we can sing for them." Layla said.
"Yeah, plus I'm pretty tired. It's been a really long day." Bloom mentioned.
"You girls should rest. I'm sure the Specialists and I can handle it from here." Flora encouraged.
"Are you sure? I mean you were the actual one to finish off Valadon." Layla said.
"I'm fine. I had my rest. You guys haven't so go." Flora practically pushed the girls off the stage.
Once the girls were in the dressing room. Flora stopped to think. She had to come up with a song, and fast.
She had a melody in her head but she didn't have any lyrics for it.
"Hey Flora, great job out there."
Flora looked over and saw the Specialists walking her way.
"Oh thanks Brandon. The girls are in the dressing room. They are really wiped."
"But if they are in there then who is going to do the encore that the audience is shouting for?" Timmy asked.
"I was hoping you guys could help me do it?" Flora gave them a pleading look.
"You don't even have to ask, we will be happy to do it." Sky laughed. "What song will we be doing?"
"That's the problem. I don't have a song." Flora looked at the boys and noticed someone missing. "Hey, where's Helia?"
"Oh he's back in our dressing room working on something." Riven pointed down the hall.
"Okay. Well I'm going to quickly talk to him. Hopefully we will figure something out." Flora then went racing down the hall to the Specialists room. She knocked on the door but didn't wait for an answer and just walked in.
Flora looked around the room and saw that Helia was sitting on the couch writing.
"Helia, I need your help."
Helia looked up and smiled at his girlfriend. "What do you need help with my flower."
"The audience is calling for an encore but the girls are tired and don't have the energy to perform but the Specialists said they will do it. But the real problem is we don't have a song." Flora quickly raced through the scenario. Then Flora looked down at Helia's notepad. "Is this a song." Flora looked over Helia's shoulder and read the lyrics. "Wow Helia this is wonderful."
"Thanks, the only problem is…I don't have a melody written for it yet."
Flora reread the lyrics and then gave Helia a smile. "But I might. I have had this melody caught in my head for sometime now but I could never come up with the right lyrics to match it. But I think it might be perfect for yours."
Helia smiled. "Then I guess we have our song for the encore then."
"Great! Now if Musa can cast that spell one more time on the boys we should be good." Flora was already heading out the door to the Winx dressing room.
"But wait." Flora stopped and looked back at Helia. "Who do you want to sing it?"
Flora thought for a moment. "I think we should both sing it."
Helia gave her a nod. "I'll meet you on stage. I just have to change the song a little bit."
Flora understood and ran down to the dressing room. Quickly explain what the plan was and told the boys to follow her to the stage.
When they got on stage they saw that the audience was still shouting for an encore. And once they saw Flora and the Specialists walk on stage the screams became almost unbearable.
Flora looked around and then saw Helia walking up on stage and stood next to her with another mic.
And then what surprised her was the Winx all came on stage. Some took some guitars and the others went over to sing backup.
This did not go unnoticed by the audience. Who screamed like there was no tomorrow.
Flora walked up to the mic. "Thank you all for waiting. Now this is a song that was written by Helia and me and we hope you all enjoy it."
(Breaking Free by High School Musical)
Helia: We're soarin', flyin'
There's not a star in heaven
That we can't reach
Flora: If we're trying
So we're breaking free
Helia: You know the world can see us
In a way that's different than who we are
Flora: Creating space between us
'Til we're separate hearts
Both: But your faith it gives me strength
Strength to believe
Helia: We're breakin' free
Flora: We're soarin'
Helia: Flyin'
Both: There's not a star in heaven
Helia: That we can't reach
If we're trying
Both: Yeah, we're breaking free
Oh, we're breakin' free
Ohh
Soon Helia and Flora forgot about everything else and were engrossed in each other.
Helia: Can you feel it building
Like a wave the ocean just can't control?
Flora: Connected by a feeling
Ohh, in our very souls
Both: Rising 'til it lifts us up
So every one can see
Helia: We're breakin' free
Flora: We're soarin'
Helia: Flyin'
Both: There's not a star in heaven
That we can't reach
Helia: If we're trying
Both: Yeah we're breaking free
Oh we're breakin' free
Flora: Ohh runnin'
Helia: Climbin'
To get to that place
To be all that we can be
Now's the time
Both: So we're breaking free
We're breaking free
Ohh, yeah
Helia: More than hope
More than faith
Both: This is true
This is fate
Flora: And together
We see it comin'
Helia: More than you
More than me
Flora: Not a want, but a need
Both: Both of us breakin' free
Flora: Soarin'!
Helia: Flyin'
Both: There's not a star in heaven
That we can't reach
If we're trying
Helia: Yeah we're breaking free
Flora: Breaking free
Flora: Were runnin'
Helia: Ohh, climbin'
Both: To get to the place
To be all that we can be
Now's the time
Now's the time
So we're breaking free
Oh, we're breaking free
Ohh
You know the world can see us
In a way that's different than who we are
The song ended with Flora and Helia sharing a passionate kiss in the spotlight. As they parted they gave each other a smile. They knew that if they were able to still love each other after all they have been through then nothing was going to break them apart. The life they lived was always going to throw them obstacles but as long as they had their friends and each other then nothing was going to keep them down.
Flora and Helia looked over to the crowd.
"FLORA, HELIA, FLORA, HELIA!"
The crowd was cheering for the both of them….together. And that is how it was going to be for as long as they lived.
So the two of them along with their friends gave the audience a final bow as the curtain closed.
There you go guys. The Heart's Encore has finally come to an end. Please tell me what you think. Even if you read this months after I wrote it. I ALWAYS love hearing what you have to say. And a thanks to those who have been reading the song and another thanks to those who leave the reviews. They always make my day.
Til Next Time…..
