Note 2: story starts after episode "The Lilo"
1. The prison of Andros
We were so close...so close to get the power and finally annihilate six annoying fairies...so close, but still to far...Icy thought, clenching hands on the trellises of the coral enter of the cell and watching underwater dance of barely visible rays of the sun.
All day we were chasing after the Winx to get the Lilo and to defeat those fairies once and for all, but it ended as it always ends: our failure, humiliation and prison. This time we were not closed in LightRock or Omega dimension. We were send to prison of Andros placed underwater. Now you can ask how we were breathing? The answer is very simple. They took our powers away from us, but in meantime they thrown at us, as the majority of the prisoners from land, a spell that surrounded us the magic coating, changing water into oxygen and allowing normally talk.
We were doomed for eternity without daylight but it wasn't that bad. The prevailing gloom around was perfect for the witches from Cloud Tower. The guards were tritons, male version of mermaids. They had golden helmets, armors and tridents. All of them looked identically, there was no difference between them and that's what was annoying me. The same type of muscles, the same colour of skin, armor and i had the impression that even their voices are the same. Depressing boredome around...but i remember Valtor saying: "In the prison you got time to think. Time to think of how and who you gonna revenge on". Me and my sisters had even to much of it to think about revenge and that's why our plans were never rational so we were losing all the time. In previous years we had more luck than sense, that we managed to survive at all all those fights against those damned fairies and being stuck in prisons. Darkar and Valtor helped us to get out of LightRock and Omega dimension but it doesn't change fact that they used us and we did let them because we thought that they will share power with us. We were so naive...We won't change the past but still we have a chance to not waste what is yet to come.
"This is slowly becoming a routine" murmured bored Darcy. She was laying on the floor with hands under head and staring at the dirty green ceiling.
"Slowly?" mocked Stormy. She was sitting in her place to sleep and leaning on the wall. "Losing the fights against the Winx is routine since we first met them in Magix. Don't tell me you have forgotten"
"Oh, trust me, i haven't" replied goldeneyed women with irritation and disdain for the fairies "We we seniors of Cloud Tower then and we were defeated by amateurs!"
"Actually they didn't beat us then" interjected Icy turning her face to her sisters "They ran away" she said with an emphasis on second word. The other two witches were not certain what to say and whether to say, so silence filled the air...
For last two days Trix sisters haven't talked much with each other. They were thinking a lot instead. Darcy was focused on dreaming, she dreamed about what would happen if at some point acted differently. Stormy was dozing, wondering what could mean a dream about pink dragonfly on a glacier and Icy for last fourty eight hours was deep in thoughts about the mistakes of the past. Suddenly wind queen's eyes grew wild.
"You think we're going to stay here for ever?" she spoke quickly and abruptly. When her sisters heard it almost jumped up in surprise.
"What are you talking about Strom?" witch of illusions raised an eyebrow and looked with pity on her little sister. "More optimism. We'll soon come up with some plan for sure. We have escaped from prisons, so~"
"More optimism?" interjected Icy with a snort "We'll come up with some plan?"
"What's your problem Icy?" said dark-haired, throwing the leader a hostile look, but when the ice witch opened her mouth to answer, prisoner few cells up shouted
"Toxins! Toxins in the ocean!"
"Shut up old men!" ordered the guard, but prisoner only got angry
"Let me out of here! Toxins! They'll arrive here! They'll come after the false king! I don't want to be a mutant! Toxins!"
"What is he talking about?" surprised Icy and she and her sisters swam to the cell door
"You haven't heard?" asked in an undertone green-skined prisoner in the cell beneath them, leaning his head to see faces of the witches. Trix denied. "The day before yesterday between portal between Andros and Earth leaked toxins called pus. Reportedly, when creature of sea or land will absorb toxins changes into a monster"
"Okey, but i still don't get it. I mean...who is the false king?" inquired dark witch. Darcy has always preferred to get all the knowledge about the event before she starts to think over it.
"It's a different story. Yesterday, in king Neptun's palace was coronation. He had to choose between his sons, Nereus and Tritannusem which one will be the successor to the throne. He chose Nereus and Tritannus because of his jealously wanted to kill his brother. He attacked him in disguise but was defeated by Neptun. Apparently Tritannus will be closed in our jail."
"And how do you know that, huh?" said Stormy with suspicious tone
"I heard the guards talking about it with each other at night"
"Silence!" yelled one of the guards in the direction of the prisoners. Green-skined boy stepped back to his cell so the witches couldn't see him anymore.
"What do you think?" said Icy in a low voice, when all three sat in a circle on the floor. "Do you think he's telling the truth?"
"We can't exclude that possibility" said wind queen, but she shrugged her shoulders.
"I still don't get it..." said dark witch thoughtfully, sisters looked at her puzzled "How did the old men few cells above us heard the same thing that the boy a cell beneath us? It's a bit illogical."
"Those guards are definitely not that stupid to talk about these things loudly and clear" picked Icy and Stormy added:
"Indeed, it is weird..."
Whispers swept through the jail when two guards came from king Naptune's castle. Their hands were tightly clenched above the elbows of the rebel between them. This triton had golden eyes, long dark purple hair, fair skin, a muscled body, a green dorsal fin and scales and a long snake-like fish tail.
"put him into the cell next to those troublemakers from Magix" said guard of the prison of Andros without hiding contempt, and those from the castle did as he ordered. With all strength they got they threw triton which they brought into the cell. Rebel hit the wall and slumped along it.
"Tritannus, right?" he heard, but when he turned in the direction the voice was coming from, he didn't see anyone.
"We've heard about you" spoke second voice. Little scared triton swam to grating between his and the cell the voices came from. "You're the one who attacked his own brother to get the crown for yourself"
"You're like us already" summed third voice. Tritannus looked deeper into darkness in front of him and saw three shadows of female shapes.
"Who are you?" asked triton frowning and clenching his hands on trellises between the cells. "Tell me" he added when he haven't heard the answer. Figures haven't said anything but they came out of shadows. Tritannus took a look at three women. Women on the left had turquoise eyes and hair of colour and shape of storm cloud. Women on the right had golden eyes and long dark brown hair. But triton devoted most of attention to women in the middle of the other two. She had long snow-white hair tied in a hight pony-tail, which simultaneously with dark blue cape was moving in the water as at the wind and light blue, cold, sharp eyes. Beautiful, passed through his mind and when their eyes met they both smiled gently.
Strange shudder passed by ice witch's body. She felt likewise when she first saw Valtor, but now, when she looked in deep golden eyes of rebel triton she felt much more than just physical attraction. It was hard for her to tear her eyes from his muscled chest, but she finally made it. First she looked knowingly at Darcy, then at Stormy and all three laughed.
"We" they said at the same time "Are the Trix" they laughed again and stepped back into the shadows...
I hope my english and the story are not that bad ;)
