Tears of Domino
Chapter One: The AwakeningAfter a long day of classes and working as Miss Faraganda's aide, having graduated the year before, Bloom still knew that there was much that she could learn from Faragonda, but being one of only a few chances to do some shopping Bloom went into the town of Adquistes outside of Magix to see if any thing could attract her eye, but as she was passing one of the many bookstores she suddenly felt drawn to enter it.
As she followed the feeling of where she was being drawn to she saw a book that seemed to stand out to her, it was old and not in the best of shape but she saw that one out of all the other books, she quickly looked through it and found it was a book of spells and knew she just had to have it, but she didn't know why.
Bloom quickly bought the book and returned to Alfea, she would have asked Faragonda about it but her and all the teachers were in meetings and could not be disturbed, so instead she went right into her room and started to read it, time quickly passed for Bloom as she read the book and pages of spells that looked and sounded like riddles, there were even some pages that were written in some other kind of language that she could not read.
After a few hours of reading she found a spell, which sounded like a riddle, but she couldn't understand its meaning, even after reading it five times she could not understand it, suddenly there came a knock at the door and brought Bloom back to the real world. When she opened it there stood Flora, Stella, Tecna, Musa, Layla and Mirta, all of them looked like they were dressed for a night of clubbing.
"So where have you been Bloom? The girls and I were looking for you," Stella asked with her hands on her leather-clad hips. "Didn't you remember that today was the grand opening of Musa and Layla's new dance club the Dance Wave, we were going to get our groove on."
"I'm sorry guys, but I found this book and for some reason I had to buy it, and there are some interesting spells." Bloom explained with an animated expression on her face.
"Really, may we take a look?" Tecna asked, suddenly interested.
"Yeah sure in fact there is this one spell I found, it makes no sense to me so I wouldn't mind some input, but I did get some thing about lost secrets." Bloom replied as she carefully laid the open book in the center of her bed so everyone could get a closer look.
As they all gathered around the large old book, Bloom showed the spell to the girls and started to read it out loud and, as she did her voice began to echo with power and they all became entranced by it.
"Secrets lost to time, lost to space, hear my call, reveal to me, your truth, FROM HEARTS O FIRE THIS I COMMAND."
After chanting these word three times powers from inside the book came to life and a vortex portal opened up consuming every one in the room, sending papers and other objects flying around, but only Bloom and her friends were sucked into it as it then closed behind them leaving the room a mess.
Inside the vortex the girls screamed as they spun around in what felt like the strong winds of a tornado, then an opening appeared and all of them landed in a pile on top of each other.
Arms, legs and faces were all tangled up, the girls had to carefully watch where and what they were moving as more than one of them ended up kicking or elbowing some one else.
"Hey, do you want to remove your butt from my face?" Stella demanded as she opened her large brown eyes and got more than her fair share of Layla's derriere in front of them.
"Why don't you get your face out of my butt?" the grey eyed fairy of fluids shot back.
"Can't we just stop arguing?" Mirta asked plaintively, then added. "And will you all pretty please get off my back?"
When they finally got up they saw that they were in a world that looked devoid of light, it was a gloomy gray world with dark clouds in the sky that let almost no sunlight pass, but there was still enough light to show the ground, it was very marsh like with a few islands of dried earth and thick grass with dead or dying trees, they could also sense that there were creatures of shadow all around them.
""Well this is a perfect place for a picnic." Stella commented in her usual sarcastic way.
"I'm sorry guys, I didn't mean for this to happen." Said Bloom in an apologetic tone of voice.
"Don't worry about it Bloom, there was no way you could have known that this would have happened." Flora soothed as she stood and dusted herself off.
"Sorry Bloom I didn't mean anything by it." Stella put in as an apology. "You know how I am."
"Well what do we do now? We can't just open a portal until we know where we are or we could end up any where, I don't even have this places location on my system"
Tecna told her friends as she attempted to find the dimension for the fifth time to no avail.
"But don't you work as the Magix teleportation terminal control operator?"
Mirta asked sounding confused.
"That's what makes this all the more strange, if this place exists, it should be on my system."
As Bloom started to look around she walked over to a small hill, after reaching the top she quickly called her friends. "Hey guys come here; you got to take a look at this." Bloom shouted from the top of the hill beckoning them over
When they all got to the top they saw what looked to be a small ruined city or could have been a small Castle keep, it was too hard to tell from this distance.
"We could check it out; there might be some clues as to where we are and what realm." Musa suggested peering down at the ruins
"Yeah that might work; besides it's all we have to go on right now." Agreed Stella, the others nodded their agreement
After walking a few moments Bloom heard some thing in the bushes behind them, then it was silent again, she thought nothing of it and continued on, after a few more moments as they got closer to what they now determined to have been a keep to some forgotten kingdom Bloom heard the noise again, but so did the others and they turned to where it came from, only to hear some thing growling behind them.
The girls quickly turned almost in a panic to see a large wolf burst out of a near by bush, there it stood, right In the path of the keep, as they got a good look at it they saw it was easily the size of a medium sized horse and had a head size similar to that of a male lion with the mane, its body was very muscular and powerful looking, its front paws were more like clawed hands and its hind legs were shaped more like that of a kangaroo, this told the girls that this was a Dire wolf, it then let out a savage growl combined with a bark.
Every time one of the girls moved it turned to them, each time getting more and more aggressive as they kept moving back and forth until finally Bloom moved, the wolf then pounced on her like a large cat would have done to its prey, as it landed on her, it knocked her to the ground and there it sat on top of her face to face, it then looked into her eyes and it saw some thing that it knew, it then started to sniff Bloom's face and neck then her face again, then some thing happened that Bloom would have never have expected to happen.
The wolf began to lick her face and then moved off of her body, after she had gotten back up the wolf was now acting more like a tamed animal than wild but, then it soon it started to get antsy but Bloom and the others could not understand what it wanted, Bloom then turned her back to it to talk to the girls, just then the wolf grabbed her belt with its teeth and lifted her into the air with its powerful jaws and began to fast walk to the keep with Bloom's friends in close pursuit calling for it to stop.
"Hey you dirty mutt get back here with her right now!" Stella yelled after the dog.
The wolf only replied by moving a bit faster but stopped when it finally got to the enormous gates of the keep, only then did it let go of Bloom's belt finally letting her feet make contact with solid ground.
"Are you ok Bloom, are you hurt?" Flora asked concerned.
."Yeah I'm ok," Bloom replied looking and sounding just slightly uncomfortable. "but I just got the biggest wedgie I've ever had in my life."
The others just laughed at that idea, Bloom then turned to scold the wolf but could see that it was now scratching at the large gates trying to get into the keep, as it did this it whimpered pleading for some one to open the gates, then it turned and faced Bloom.
As it sat it whined some more, with Bloom looking into the wolf's eyes she could not help but feeling for it so she grabbed hold of the Handle and pushed with all her might but the large door was not going to give in with out a fight, Bloom then summoned her Winx powers and forced the doors to open.
As they did the wolf went running in at incredible speeds even with their Winx powers they had a hard time keeping the wolf in sight, they soon found them selves in a small courtyard leading to a sanctuary, as they entered the building they could see more dead trees flowers and other bushes but the most disturbing part was that placed along the walls and all over the five floors that made up the well made building were statues of people.
On the floor the girls could see common people that seemed to be running ducking and pleading for there lives, there was one in particular that hit right to home with Bloom, it was a mother running looking over her shoulder while she held her baby in her arms and Bloom could tell that she was fear full just from the look on her face.
On a upper floor was more people mostly warriors all posing in different ways, some looked to be trying to make an attack, defend from an attack or in the middle of a battle, there were also ones that looked to have been injured in some way or another, there was a total of five floors that had these type of statues of warriors and people, nearly five hundred warriors and a thousand people.
In the center of the massive room was a large crystal pointed about twelve feet into the air and rounded six feet wide, by its side was the wolf and it was looking at the crystal.
When the girls got closer to the wolf and crystal they could see some thing inside of it, then Bloom knew what it was, there was a person inside of it, Bloom then looked to the wolf and she saw that there was a small inscription on a tablet beside him but Bloom could not read it.
"Tecna can you read this?" Bloom asked pointing to the inscription.
As Tecna approached the tablet she began to fiddle with one of her electronic devices then scanned the writing."This may take a few moments." Tecna announced with a small smile
Just as she said a few moments later the translation came out.
"I am a warrior; my people shall sleep eternal in peace, as the last to survive my duty is to them and so I shall sleep as them. Should the shadows return I wait the call to arms. With Blood of fire now spent victory shall be ours through vengeance alone. When thy need is great, to a kiss from the heart and eyes of love, and the calling of my name I shall awaken, and an honorable victory shall be yours. I am the last, I am alone, and I shall force the shadows to tremble at my presence once more, FOR HONOR!"
Knights with honor
Of the fires heart
Red flames engulf me
Dragon's spirit empowers me
Mirta could feel her heart sink to the warrior, she felt very sad and sorry for him."That is the saddest thing I have ever heard" she told her friends with tears floating in her dark green eyes
"But what the hells does that mean?" Demanded Stella, as she could not understand what was just said.
"It means that this warrior did this to him self to be with his people that were cursed, but I don't understand what is meant by blood of fire or the spirits of." Tecna then stopped in mid sentence and looked at Bloom.
"That's it, Bloom he means the dragon flame because blood of fire would mean your royal family and when he means spent, that must mean that he thought he was the last of the royal family." Tecna finished calmly
"Do you think that this could be an uncle or some thing?" Bloom asked with hope filled eyes.
"I don't know it could be but he looks a bit too young to be a one."
"Then could he be a brother?" Asked Musa.
Just then there was a loud roar from outside the building, Mirta went running to a window to look and see if she could find what made that sound, she then saw what it was, her face went white as she ran back to the others.
"What is it Mirta what did you see?" Asked Flora.
"I saw three trolls heading this way and they look really mad."
Mirta replied with a squeak in her voice
The wolf then started to bare its fangs and took up a defensive position in front of what could only have been his master, the girls could only do the same because they had to protect the people that were trapped in stone.
The three trolls soon broke into the room, two came in from windows at the sides and the third came in from the front door and they started to attack the girls.
The girls tried to defend themselves from the trolls but they were very powerful, one of them knocked Tecna out with a body check that sent her into a wall; Flora quickly hit him with a few blasts of her own as Mirta gathered Tecna up and moved to the sleeping warrior.
Stella and Musa were double teaming another one of the trolls as Bloom and Layla were fighting the third one, Mirta then thought that this was a time of great need so she stood up and faced the crystal, she then looked at the translation again and she noticed that the start of each line in the poem was a capital in perfect alignment, she had nothing to louse so she spelled out the name K.O.R.D
"Kord!" Mirta called out loud.
She then placed a romantic kiss at his face, but nothing happened just then she felt like some one was behind her.
As she turned she saw a troll going to grab her but it was tackled by the wolf and they rolled around on the floor fighting a savage battle, though the troll stood towering over the wolf, he showed no fear of the troll.
Now on the floor Mirta saw a bright blue light coming from behind her, she turned and saw the bright blue light was coming from the warrior, and then the crystal suddenly shattered sending shards harmlessly flying in every direction as they simply vanished.
Standing there was the warrior only now being able to get a good look at him Mirta felt a chill run down her spine.
The warrior had darkened plate armor the kind a knight would wear; his shoulder plates had some very mean looking spikes that only added to his chilling appearance.
His helmet was a full helmet that had battle horns on the sides that bent towards his face and out much like that of a bull, his face was covered completely except for one large slit that was open for his eyes to look out of, his mouth was covered only by a guard that also added to his fearsome looks, he also had a blood red cape with a gold dragon emblem imprinted on it.
Soon the light faded from around him but his eyes maintained the same steady glow, Mirta could tell that he was looking at her, as there would be a slight flicker in the glow, as he would blink.
He then walked over to Mirta reached out a hand and helped her up, he then looked into her eyes and she could feel his eyes piercing into her soul, then she heard a yelp that forced the warrior to look away and she could not help but turn and look to.
She saw that the wolf had been knocked down and was definitely hurt by the troll it had been fighting with, but this seamed to enrage the warrior as he charged at the troll, it turned and swung at him but the warrior grabbed the trolls fist in mid flight and held it in place.
Mirta could hear the cracking of the trolls bones under the shear power of the warrior, he then grabbed the trolls wrist rolled onto his back put his feet into the trolls chest and pushed off sending the troll flying into a wall, in this roll the warrior continued till he was on his feet again and looked to the troll he had just knocked out.
The one that was fighting Stella and Musa looked to the warrior that was charging him now, the warrior checked him in the gut then began to swing his fists in a pattern of left, left, right, left, right then he made a jump in to the air and spun around a full 360 degrees and ended it into a kick to the trolls chest that sent him flying out the window he had used to enter this room.
Bloom Layla and Flora were fighting the last one, but then he got Bloom mad by grabbing her hair and using it to toss her up into the air. Bloom then called on her dragon fire to blast the troll out of the door he had also used to enter the room.
Seeing this the warrior drew his sword from his right side and pointed the tip at Bloom and in a loud and commanding voice called to her.
"You! How do you have the Dragon's Fire, TELL ME NOW!"
But then he heard the whimper of his friend and had to run to its side.
"Fang are you all right?" Asked the warrior, but the wolf only whimpered.
"Oh come on you've had worse." The warrior soothed and patting the wolf on the head. But again the wolf just lay there whining, the warrior then lifted its head to his knee and began to stroke it then his eyes glowed a bright yellow.
"You'll be fine but it will hurt for a while Fang, you have some bruised ribs and a cracked one."
Bloom then sat beside the two of them.
"Are you sure he'll be fine?" Asked Bloom.
"Yes but it will take some time for him to heal and you still haven't answered my question, how did you get the dragon fire?" Asked the warrior.
"My name is Bloom" Bloom said holding out a slender hand to the warrior
The word Bloom forced the warrior to quickly look at her.
"What did you say?"
"My name is Bloom and I'm the princess too." Bloom repeated clearly
The warrior then cut her off. "No this can't be right, I was the only survivor." The warrior said shaking his head in disbelief
"My older sister, Daphne, opened a portal and sent me to Earth before our world was destroyed." Bloom explained softly as she looked down at her hands.
The warrior set Fang's head back down. "I see," He said standing up and turning to Bloom. "Bloom, I am Kord, I am your older brother." The warrior said looking Bloom in the eyes.
