Fallen:- A stubborn fairy
A/N:- Hello and welcome to ' Fallen:- A stubborn fairy'. It is most probably going to be a two shot but I'm still not sure….. Anyway here is the first chapter.
Revised yet again! There were a lot of errors that needed to be addressed and I hop I have done so in this revision.
I also have four upcoming one or two shots namely: - 'Fallen- An earth fairies fic', 'The Final Battle:- Domino's last stand' , ' Coming together again' and ' Sweet or Sour'
It had been a long day for Bloom, Princess of Domino and keeper of the Dragon's flame. After all defeating one of the greatest threats to the magic dimension wasn't easy. She walked into the teacher's quarter and flung herself onto the bed.
Her actions were mimicked by Stella and Musa who were feeling tired too. Flora, however, decided to brew a herbal tea which would make her friends feel more energetic. She knew that they very all feeling physically and emotionally drained after their hectic day , and they needed to be in tip-top shape to attend the ' Wish Ceremony'.
Andros's princess was engaged in a conversation with Sirenix guardian about her Sirenix wish while Tecna was engrossed in making anti- mutant technology.
As evening approached, the Winx Club and their Sirenix guardians all gathered in the common room where they had often had discussions about their mission.
Aisha's Sirenix Guardian spoke solemnly "This is a very important ceremony for all of you as Sirenix Fairies. However before we begin the ceremony, there is something you should know. The wish that you make will cost you something. It's a give and take situation. Those who wish to back out must do so now. Remember one thing; it is our power to grant wishes. You are not the possessors of this power, so please do not ask us to make a wish which we cannot grant."
Bloom looked around and said "I cannot speak for my friends but I will for myself. I will not back out now. My wish is important to me…."
The rest of the Winx Club in unison said "As it is to us. We agree with Bloom. There is no backing out now."
Musa's Sirenix Guardian nodded and said "Very well. Let the ceremony begin."
A chilling wind swept around the room as the Winx let their powers connect with that of their guardians. The Winx shuddered as they felt the vast power of the Sirenix guardians connect with them while the Sirenix guardians felt slightly repulsed by the comparatively weaker powers .
It was a long time since they had granted a Sirenix Wish. The last time someone had gained Sirenix, the fairy had ended up losing their body and hence she had not made the wish.
Before , Daphne, the only people who had made the wish had been the Ancient Fairies whose powers were strong and untainted. However , there was a slight taint in all their powers, because they had used a convergence with Bloom, who had been turned into Dark Bloom earlier.
As the fusion concluded, the Sirenix Guardians opened their eyes and said "You can now make your wish . Choose wisely . Princess of Andros, you will begin."
Stepping forward, Aisha softly said "My wish ….. My wish is that Nabu will awaken from his coma."
The guardians nodded and said "Your wish is as pure as the waters of Andros. For this wish, the compensation that you must give is simple: - During the next fortnight one of your family members will fall into a coma."
On seeing the panicked look on her face, one of the guardians allayed her fears by saying "Do not worry child. That person will awaken again with no recollection of ever having fallen into a coma"
Aisha moved away, her thoughts melancholic, leaving Stella to take centre stage. Stella seemed to ponder for a while before saying "My wish… is to have my parents back together again."
"Very well Princess of the Sun. However, the compensation that you will pay will shatter your heart into a million pieces. You and your squire boyfriend will break up while your parents will come together."
Nia's eyes widened and she thought " Liars…True lovers can never be separated by a wish…. Especially not a Sirenix Wish"
A tear trickled down Stella's face which she wiped away. She was going to lose Brandon. She was going to lose the person she loved most, the one who could make her day brighten by just telling her that she was beautiful. .
As Stella moved into her earlier position she wondered whether she had done the right thing or not. Brandon was the world to her and she certainly didn't want to lose him. He truly loved her and cared about her.
It was hard on her, yet she felt a small amount of happiness when she thought of her parents coming together.
Musa, who was the next one to make her wish, hugged Stella to make her feel better saying "My wish…. I wish that my mother would come back to life."
"There is no compensation that can fulfill the requirement for this wish. While it is in our power to grant that wish, we will only grant it if you promise to give us your first born child's life."
Musa's eyes filled with sorrow when she thought about giving up her first born child. Riven would certainly not approve of it and frankly, her mother wouldn't either.
Her voice trembled as she spoke .
" I cannot….. My child…. Riven will never approve of it. Stella , Aisha how can you be so selfish ? You jumped into the ravine when Brandon fell into it! How can you sacrifice your love for him? Aisha, will Nabu really approve of what you did? I'm sure that he wouldn't want any of your family members to go into a coma! Didn't you think before you made the wishes? Really I am disappointed in you both."
The fairies looked shocked and so did their guardians. Stella and Aisha had sheepish looks on their faces.
Amatheia, who recovered from her shock first, said " Think about what you are saying Musa. You have only one chance at your wish."
"I'm sorry Theia. I cannot make this wish." She stepped outside the Sirenix circle but her facial expression showed her sadness. She had wanted her mother back with her and now she had lost that chance forever.
Bloom, who stepped into the centre of the circle, said "I wish that my sister, the nymph of Magix, Daphne would no longer be a bodiless spirit."
"Princess Bloom of Domino, the compensation you must give is the Dragon's Flame and your kingdom. The former Princess Daphne poured almost all her power into you and now it is time that the power and the throne returned to her."
Bloom who was shocked stuttered "I can't give it up. My powers are responsible for saving the entire magic dimension. How can you ask me to give it up? The throne of Domino I don't mind but the Flame? Never!"
She heard a gasp from her friends and Musa said "Bloom! Daphne is responsible for saving you and the dimension. If it wasn't for her, you would probably be dead."
Shaking her head Bloom replied "I will not hand over the Dragon's Flame." She broke out of the circle, running away to her room.
"This ceremony cannot continue if the Princess does not give up the Flame. She has made the wish, now it is time that she pays compensation. If she doesn't all your wishes will be lost and your compensation will be in vain."
Stella opened her eyes and glared in the direction of Bloom's room, as she heard the words of the Guardians.
"I will try to convince her Stella."
"Thanks Flora. You are the best."
A/N:- Cliffhanger! What do you think will happen? Will Bloom sacrifice the Flame or will she be stubborn and not give it up? What will happen to Matlin? Please do review.
Next Chapter :- Flora and Bloom have a talk. And a secret is uncovered.
