Well, that's now 3 stories I'll be working on for the rest of the year, and probably longer. The first one is Blood of the Saints (Winx Club/Saints Row), the second is The Black Circle Returns, and now there's Secrets of the Sirens! Anyway, this will be a prologue that will be my own take on what happened to Lilith, Tiny Tina and Moxxi, plus a few more characters, after Borderlands 2 finished.
Anyway, enjoy!
Winx Club and Borderlands go to their respective owners.
Pandora
Having just successfully killed both Handsome Jack and The Warrior, Lilith and the Vault Hunter were stood by Jack's dead body.
"Slow down, man. I nearly bought it back there. Hey... Lilith!" A clearly injured Mordecai said. He was walking over to Lilith alongside Brick.
"Where the hell were you guys five minutes ago?! If it weren't for the Vault Hunter, we'd all be dead!" Lilith said, annoyed.
"I think... That's her way of saying we won." Brick said.
"I figured that." Mordecai responded. Lilith began to walk over to the remains of the Vault Key.
"If I never see this Key again, it'll be too soon." Once she got to it, Lilith descended to one knee and attempted to destroy it.
"It's been fun, you alien piece of sh..." However, as soon as Lilith touched the Key, it opened up a strange-looking holographic map of the universe. In each galaxy, and on each planet, multiple Vault symbols appeared.
"What the... Are those Vaults?" Brick asked. This caused Mordecai to chuckle.
"You know what that means." Mordecai said.
"Yeah. Hmm, no rest for the..." Lilith was cut off mid-sentence when, one by one, all of the Vault symbols, planets and galaxies started disappearing.
"What in the hell?" Mordecai exclaimed.
"I don't know. It's almost like the Key wants us to look for a specific Vault." Everyone noticed that the name of the planet on which the Vault resided was written in a mysterious language that, for some reason, only Lilith and the Vault Hunter, whose identity and voice were obscured by a helmet, could read.
"Lilith, can you read that?" The Vault Hunter asked.
"Yeah. It says 'Magix'. Why does that place sound familiar?"
"I don't know. Maybe we should ask someone back at Sanctuary."
"Agreed. For now, let's put as much distance between us and this place as we can." With that, everyone began to walk towards Sanctuary.
3 months later
"Hold on. So, let me get this straight, Mordecai. You and I have been friends for years, and all of a sudden, you're ABANDONING US?!" Lilith said, fury in her voice, the likes of which had probably not been seen on Pandora for hundreds of years.
"We're not abandoning you, Lilith, or the Vault Hunter, but we can't support you, not since the Crimson Lance reformed, with their leader operating under YOUR old bounty hunter name!"
"Oh, right. Just because SOMEONE decides to reform the Crimson Lance disguised as the Firehawk, that automatically means it's me! You know what, Mordecai?! At least now I know who my REAL friends are!"
"What are you talking about?"
"Oh, don't you know? Moxxi moved her bar to another part of the planet! She says that with the extra space she got from the new site, it can double as a motel. She'll let us stay there for a while, until we find Magix."
"Right, so, basically, you're staying there until you die? Let me explain this one more time. Magix. Is. NOT. REAL!" Enraged on hearing this, Lilith created a ball of energy in her hand, which, besides their 'Phase-' powers, is an ability all Sirens have. What was different about the one currently held by Lilith is that, instead of being the usual dark blue, or purple if enhanced by Eridium, it was black.
"If anyone comes after us, I will come back here and I will tear your heart STRAIGHT FROM YOUR CHEST!"
"Whoa, Lilith, calm down! Remember, Zed said that you've gotta stay calm, or you'll hurt the b-" 'The Vault Hunter' was cut off when Lilith mouthed 'no' to them.
"The what? Lilith, are you..." Mordecai asked, with the first hint of concern he had shown for Lilith that day.
"Pregnant? Yeah, I am. 38 weeks." This earned a resounding 'WHAT?!' from Brick and Mordecai.
"The only problem is, I don't know whether or not the baby's dad is Roland or this guy I met when he was kidnapped. That night, when Jack died, the baby somehow influenced the map so that it'd only focus on Magix. Maybe that's where its father is."
"Well, look, I'm sorry if what I said hurt..." Mordecai said, but was quickly cut off.
"Save it, OK, Mordy? You've done enough to Lilith already." A certain 13-year-old explosives fanatic that just so happened to go by the name of Tiny Tina said, walking from behind The Vault Hunter.
"Tina, are you sure about this?" Lilith asked, concerned.
"Course I am, girl! Besides, in my eyes, you are my big sister now, so that baby in there is basically my niece or nephew." Lilith could not hide the smile that appeared on her face.
"Thank you." Lilith said, hugging Tina.
"No problem. Now, what do you fine ladies say about us startin' to look for Moxxi's new bar?" Lilith and the Vault Hunter nodded, before the 3 of them, including Tina, walked away to find the nearest Catch-A-Ride.
Elsewhere on Pandora
Inside a large building, 3 Claptrap units were 'sleeping'. One of them was red with an almost rust-coloured stripe going around the middle, the second one was blue with a turquoise stripe, and the third one was yellow with a white stripe. They were lined up directly next to each other. In a room nearby, the woman known both on Pandora and on its moon of Elpis as 'Mad Moxxi' slept in her bed. Suddenly, she woke with a start, sitting bolt upright.
"It's starting. I need to set this place up. Hey, Claptraps, time to wake up, boys!" She said, before quickly jumping out of bed. From there, she put on some clothes and ran off.
Wow! That was one hell of an introduction to write. Also, for those of you that know what happens in Borderlands 2, yes, most of the dialogue from the 1st part, up until the map changing to Magix, was taken from the ending of Borderlands 2. The main story's 1st chapter will be up in around a week or so, and you thought the stories from the actual Borderlands games get interesting. Trust me, whether you're a fan of Winx Club, Borderlands, or just a good read, I promise that you guys are gonna love what I have in store. Also, I have created a poll, accessible on my profile, for people to give their opinions on who they want the Vault Hunter to be. Right now, it looks like this:
Angel - 1
Maya - 0
Athena - 0
Janey - 0
Steele - 0
Well, see you soon!
