The day arrived. Lumi was ready.
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmkopC0NLhK
Aarav’s heart was already racing.
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOdPWK0VYRI
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.
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVujkFYD7eA
But far from their joy, Lumi was on full alert.
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3AvyfbqRcv
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.
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDuyEUFpQQn
Her first guess was right.
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBDLFe37iJe
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.
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5vSqEZXhdo
But Lumi was faster.
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlDjhXGS84V
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.
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmSXdmx1B15
Crisis avoided. Shila was safe — and later that morning, she joined Aarav at Hari’s house to keep him smiling.
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8tmBk7bhkJ
But the troll wasn’t done yet.
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG35C1U9ltJ
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.
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdGPHvMKFN3
On his way home, something unexpected happened.
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKbMiGcTq6E
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.
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDtcozT3K08
For the first time, Aarav saw their pain. No smirks. No pride. Just scared kids.
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrr2lpnRMOQ
Aarav, Shila, Rajiv, and Hari stepped in.
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd7BlJ3tYKe
They defended the bullies.
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr3uacMUmph
The boys looked at Aarav, speechless. Their faces were ashamed. They lowered their heads and whispered, “Sorry…”
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5p9CflyOYH
That very moment — gold light burst from Aarav’s chest, brighter than ever before. A protective shield shimmered around him.
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcrhsKvYxFm
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.
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM8pegma0hK
Timbon lost again.
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHytp6Zfao0
Now he had only one chance left.
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHNYQBXdaqf
The competition began.
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC9Kq20DJDo
One by one, students performed. Lights glimmered. Applause echoed. Lumi hovered above the hall, invisible, ready for war.
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVLPyQTewAo
Then came Aarav’s turn.
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmJBYxFM78K
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.
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJCI2jUp2xo
Then, everything went dark.
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ5Hnir2xOd
The mic cut. The speakers died. The hall filled with silence. A terrifying laugh echoed only in Aarav’s ears — Timbon’s final move.
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡILq5NQmsBv
Back in Skaar, the emotion detector turned red. Aarav’s heartbeat pounded. Sweat rolled down his temple.
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTal1U3Hegf
The chains around Morvena began to crack.
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJk3OPK0n9p
Lumi panicked. She didn’t know what to do. Then she looked at one of the dream-cameras — it pointed right at Aarav.
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsLFOUwWniR
She rushed to Aarav’s bag, pulled out Dhruv’s photograph, and held it close to the camera.
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkOnBHVApuU
Aarav saw it.
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbY1G3RGN9V
Then Lumi whispered in Dhruv’s voice:
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡarnJ4qRByM
> “Do it, Thambi.”
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7r3Iu1IEDm
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡloOtDN0Tjd
Something exploded in Aarav’s soul.
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE22WprdOi6
He stood tall. Loud and proud, he spoke:
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi1PmmNMdPg
> “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.”
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw8rlDYTejX
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.
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6AFieIw7HB
Aarav began:
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPlxACOuazW
---
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOqgomH9Uo5
"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.
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbSfboAwkrZ
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."
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9tbJGJRJDS
---
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6jI78IEXU9
Every word struck like magic. The crowd held their breath.
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtmUHBh9v4d
Even Kali and David stood up first and clapped. The applause rolled in like thunder.
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwfOPThupEc
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.
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQGpz06utQA
In the real world, Aarav’s mother cried tears of joy. His father hugged him, apologised, and said with pride:
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjnUWhNz3sT
> “You’ve made us proud, son.”
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdv9O88yrep
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkwkONb2uZW
The results came in.
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtf1cvirlYo
Aarav won.
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHbpjFUItyu
As he received the trophy, he thanked Hari’s mother, Shila, Rajiv, Hari, the bullies, his parents — and even his English teacher.
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZlnF7AOP3v
She stepped forward and said:
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOuRd0CZeSR
> “I’m sorry, Aarav. I’ll never doubt you again.”
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmiDky83WtV
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvg426Bgi2T
And his mother whispered gently:
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡABbfvNFmn4
> “Always believe in yourself.”
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV0LhkUlp3x
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO744r0vmRy
That night, Aarav tore every page filled with fear and wrote a new one:
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlprBTl62a9
> “I will always believe in myself. No matter what.”
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSVCu1wQJJy
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy2peMeVK7n
He slept peacefully for the first time in months.
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRnhcnO9Eus
And in the Dream Realm, Lumi looked at the sky — no dark clouds, no chaos. The doorway to dreams was wide open.
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm5ginG7Rcw
So she gave Aarav his very first dream — of becoming a successful poet and writer.
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUhXErr1WcI
The Elderly appeared beside her.
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCaV1IxWAak
> “You’ve done well, Lumi. It’s time to return.”
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtUo3ABJMS4
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEmivsFF3MT
> “Please… can I stay one more day?” Lumi asked with soft eyes.
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6eJ7bCzip5
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Plxp67fsb
> “Just one,” the Elderly smiled.
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjIFrOtVQEg
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmPOONI36Gi
The next day was magical.
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfojMdQWmvg
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.
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh6UnmGhaeP
And Shila smiled and said,
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxRoFU32uj6
> “You’re my hero,”
handing him the Steel Tiger jacket.
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB6uWKzoUI2
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxvXWf7JQTF
In class, the teacher waited patiently as Aarav read aloud — and when he finished, the whole class applauded
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3lXHgLiqgX
.
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWhD2PAQTHk
Lumi saw it all.
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHba1VFEDmk
Smiling with joy, she flew high into the sky, her wings sparkling, and began her journey back to Dreamlight Fairyland.
