The day arrived. Lumi was ready.
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcuKS6C72a9
Aarav’s heart was already racing.
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS2hWFLIETV
With the poem competition just hours away, he practiced every word carefully at Hari’s house. His friends stood by him, cheering, helping, laughing — especially Shila, who never left his side.
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPjSXd8jK8W
But far from their joy, Lumi was on full alert.
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTsIdmF9fSo
She knew Timbon wasn’t done. His dark heart wouldn’t let Aarav shine so easily. So, Lumi made a few guesses on what he’d try next. She set up magical dream-cameras on everyone in Aarav’s life, preparing for an ambush.
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs6DTIbHhTa
Her first guess was right.
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWahoowEFfj
Timbon appeared outside Shila’s house, ready to infect her mother with troll magic through his cursed cube. His plan? Spoil Shila’s breakfast and make her too sick to attend.
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡahfS4GJBGl
But Lumi was faster.
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCxwycvIKoi
She arrived just in time, her magical knuckles glowing. Timbon froze in shock — he hadn’t expected her so soon. With a fierce punch, Lumi sent him flying backwards. Furious, he retreated. Lumi quickly used her enchanted gloves to toss away the tainted breakfast before Shila could even smell it.
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBUCZl5J225
Crisis avoided. Shila was safe — and later that morning, she joined Aarav at Hari’s house to keep him smiling.
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOU0AwJefKd
But the troll wasn’t done yet.
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNJYgWo136q
By afternoon, Timbon made his move again. He snuck into Aarav’s home and possessed his mother, forcing her to call him back urgently. Lumi arrived too late this time. Aarav had already left.
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP0yWSH78ER
On his way home, something unexpected happened.
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoB2WopaUMj
He passed the school fence and noticed something strange — the two bullies, Kali and David, were being scolded and even slapped by their drunken stepfather.
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV6l2GISEzK
For the first time, Aarav saw their pain. No smirks. No pride. Just scared kids.
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEq9beThJ7e
Aarav, Shila, Rajiv, and Hari stepped in.
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBBnUGlfVW8
They defended the bullies.
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIeXWzCKxVR
The boys looked at Aarav, speechless. Their faces were ashamed. They lowered their heads and whispered, “Sorry…”
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVkTF3wKH72
That very moment — gold light burst from Aarav’s chest, brighter than ever before. A protective shield shimmered around him.
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Xt6yiZQD1
When Aarav entered his house, his mother — still under Timbon’s control — was waiting to scold him. But Lumi appeared just in time. She locked his mother safely inside a room and fought off the dark presence with every bit of her fairy strength and the golden light now within Aarav.
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA4eDE8INlk
Timbon lost again.
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhNb1i02FhL
Now he had only one chance left.
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7edspJlkJV
The competition began.
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5T0iAFp9QL
One by one, students performed. Lights glimmered. Applause echoed. Lumi hovered above the hall, invisible, ready for war.
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeqo4554Bn2
Then came Aarav’s turn.
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdWoyS8btXs
Shila gave him a warm hug before he walked up. He stepped onto the stage. He could see everyone — his friends, the bullies, his parents. Even the English teacher was staring in shock.
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu8XEnZuHVP
Then, everything went dark.
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOauptgTyG7
The mic cut. The speakers died. The hall filled with silence. A terrifying laugh echoed only in Aarav’s ears — Timbon’s final move.
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUWTQ9nzrkb
Back in Skaar, the emotion detector turned red. Aarav’s heartbeat pounded. Sweat rolled down his temple.
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡocBAGa9n35
The chains around Morvena began to crack.
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhEeytCVIau
Lumi panicked. She didn’t know what to do. Then she looked at one of the dream-cameras — it pointed right at Aarav.
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzMsjbGQRbr
She rushed to Aarav’s bag, pulled out Dhruv’s photograph, and held it close to the camera.
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDpcIaRDumL
Aarav saw it.
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFN4tDBFCMe
Then Lumi whispered in Dhruv’s voice:
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZjms0YgahB
> “Do it, Thambi.”
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBL2RsSypoY
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYKN65HRDqY
Something exploded in Aarav’s soul.
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡygU5dVzQy0
He stood tall. Loud and proud, he spoke:
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMKovHCy66a
> “A very good evening to our respected Principal, all the teachers, parents, and my beloved friends. Today, I would like to read a poem that I prepared.”
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpw41IdZDCU
Right at that moment, the mic came back to life — thanks to the English teacher, who quickly rushed to reconnect the wires backstage. Her hands trembled, but her eyes were firm. For the first time, she believed in him.
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLYdmmqWCGD
Aarav began:
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzUSbn07QbR
---
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx2s6i7pVFt
"In silent halls, I feared the crowd,
My voice, too soft, was never loud.
The shadows laughed, they watched me fall,
I built a wall, I hid from all.
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡri1ELHCJa5
But light appeared through hands held tight,
My friends stood tall and gave me sight.
I learned that courage grows with trust,
And broken hearts can rise from dust."
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbEfwpipe8c
---
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTbjGWVp0Ic
Every word struck like magic. The crowd held their breath.
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhcbkt7PGkM
Even Kali and David stood up first and clapped. The applause rolled in like thunder.
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡftlVqDOKnO
Back in Skaar, Morvena screamed. But instead of breaking free, her chains tightened even more. Timbon, exhausted and powerless, was now chained too — caught in the same prison.
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoHChhOvfLE
In the real world, Aarav’s mother cried tears of joy. His father hugged him, apologised, and said with pride:
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZZ5vEPZ5M0
> “You’ve made us proud, son.”
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVrwosaRwPk
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAUTS00dL6y
The results came in.
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUaQ9zpCrh9
Aarav won.
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb09bqk6aXu
As he received the trophy, he thanked Hari’s mother, Shila, Rajiv, Hari, the bullies, his parents — and even his English teacher.
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡak8Bbm8iB7
She stepped forward and said:
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ59zjppkVTl
> “I’m sorry, Aarav. I’ll never doubt you again.”
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQUZtOBWXRV
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD0f7fki8UM
And his mother whispered gently:
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx6JaF4N44L
> “Always believe in yourself.”
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡijbM32Q3T6
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0705GrFBa0
That night, Aarav tore every page filled with fear and wrote a new one:
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡygWfwJIQI1
> “I will always believe in myself. No matter what.”
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdJy6Yd8RXy
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWEqg0pT2Hy
He slept peacefully for the first time in months.
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzLjDCXHDHW
And in the Dream Realm, Lumi looked at the sky — no dark clouds, no chaos. The doorway to dreams was wide open.
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5naHNf56Xs
So she gave Aarav his very first dream — of becoming a successful poet and writer.
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Wfq3KBzls
The Elderly appeared beside her.
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH0vikLCS1Y
> “You’ve done well, Lumi. It’s time to return.”
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa3qqUbXda3
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnngWP4ZVsz
> “Please… can I stay one more day?” Lumi asked with soft eyes.
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8yvzbdVc7k
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNTlgkuDC7C
> “Just one,” the Elderly smiled.
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMMGG8uVXs4
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhiTSjgS8qU
The next day was magical.
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFfBrvU0lNr
Aarav’s parents gifted him a brand new Steel Tiger superhero-themed jacket. The school bus driver handed him a chocolate bar with a wink. The bullies waved and invited him to hang out.
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwfPNczYEKy
And Shila smiled and said,
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB7IWmr14o1
> “You’re my hero,”
handing him the Steel Tiger jacket.
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzGkqswTnZX
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQPzWvzFfXg
In class, the teacher waited patiently as Aarav read aloud — and when he finished, the whole class applauded
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF8JWnc4ZlB
.
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlyWZQxpK6B
Lumi saw it all.
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiol6qT6mB6
Smiling with joy, she flew high into the sky, her wings sparkling, and began her journey back to Dreamlight Fairyland.
