Ah, I see that there are reviews of this already.
Besides that, thank you very much for sharing your thoughts. The previous "Prologue" was only a scratch test. This is the real thing I intended to write.
Aside from all this, enjoy.
"Bloom! Bloom, where are you?!"
The sound of Stella's voice echoed around the halls of the castle, and it seems she was panicked at the same time. Her eyes seemed to say that she needed to find Bloom, as soon as possible.
"Bloom! Bloom!" She yelled out again, looking around the area. "Bloom, just where the heck are you?!"
After she had yelled out those words, the sound of fluttering wings can be heard. Stella turned and saw the girl with the fiery hair, flying towards her with wings colored blue and yellow.
"Stella, what's wrong?" Bloom stopped flying and got down from the air, walking up to her blonde friend, with one of her eyebrows raised. "Are they here yet?"
"Actually..." Stella pointed to the window, with Bloom looking at the direction she was pointing at. "They're here. And they need you, Bloom."
Bloom's eyes trailed towards the scenery out of the castle's window. Lots of airships were there, and a lot of soldiers were defending the gates of her castle, her kingdom. One airship dropped to the ground, and out came five more fairies whom she recognized as her own friends.
Bloom sighed and glanced at Stella. "Let's go. General Karmegan will be attacking soon; we have to prepare our armies, too." She told her friend, then ran off outside to meet the other Winx fairies, and their husbands.
Stella nodded at this and headed over to Bloom. "Oh, by the way, Bloom..." The sun fairy paused as she glanced at the room where Baby Carys once slept peacefully. "Where did you leave your Baby Carys? What planet?" She asked, and continued running with the fiery haired fairy.
Bloom smiled and looked back at Stella. "In the planet Agnivo. Brother planet of Eraklyon." She replied. "You? Where did Aphrodite wind up?"
Stella closed her eyes with a smile. "Planet Senadiva, sister planet of Solaria." Stella replied, shrugging her shoulders. "I'm sure my little Aphrodite would be safe there."
Bloom and Stella stopped once they arrived in front of the large castle doors. Before pushing those doors open, Bloom smiled at Stella. "I hope so, Stella. I really hope so."
The queen of Eraklyon pushed open those big doors, and both fairies went outside to meet the others, who were preparing for General Karmegan's war. Hundreds of air ships had landed in front of the big kingdom square, and people were going in and out of the air ships. Armies from the planets of Bloom's team mates and friends from the Winx have been grouped into ranks, and all were standing proud and tall for the protection of Eraklyon against Karmegan's army.
Bloom and Stella smiled once they saw Flora, Aisha, and Musa emerge from their own battalion ships. When the five women saw each other, they waved and ran up to them, hugging each other in the process.
"Bloom!" Musa exclaimed, hugging the Eraklyon queen. "Is the war starting?" She asked once she had let go of the hug.
"No, not yet," Bloom replied, pausing mid-sentence, furrowing her red eyebrows. "but it would soon."
Musa sighed in relief, then looked over to the others; Flora, Stella, and Aisha, hugging and talking with each other. She turned to Bloom once again, with a smile on her face. "I'm glad I sent Amanda off on time to our sister planet Calliope. I'm sure she's safe there..." she laced her fingers together and bit her lip, "I can only hope."
Bloom smiled softly and patted the raven-haired fairy's shoulder, nodding. She knew exactly how she felt.
"Ah, Priya would be safe there," Both turned once they heard Flora's voice, who was currently talking to Aisha and Stella as they walked to their direction. "I can trust our brother planet Dzovag completely. My little Priya would be safe there."
"Oh, really? How about you, Aisha? Where did Kalila wind up?"
"Hah, of course, to the sister planet Thalassa!" Came Aisha's voice, a bit excited despite the war they are currently in. "Thalassa is far off from Andros, surely she wouldn't be navigated that easily!"
Their conversation was followed by the giggling of the three women.
Musa raised an eyebrow and spoke dramatically, touching her chest, "Oh, what a shame! Our three friends haven't even noticed us, Bloom!" She cocked her head to Bloom's direction, who only smiled. "What should we do?"
Bloom laughed. "I don't know about you, Musa."
Flora giggled and hugged both fairies. "Oh, I so hope your baby daughters are okay!" She consoled softly, hugging both girls tightly.
With that, Aisha and Stella joined in the group hug, and in a few seconds they were now hugging each other.
But Musa had a thought in mind.
"Hey, where's Tecna?" She looked around her friends, trying to search for the fairy with the short pink hair. "And don't even mention Roxy! Where are those two pink heads?"
Aisha smiled. "Oh, them? They're currently in Tecna's ship, navigating if General Karmegan is near." She then ran off, but stopped to a halt and nodded at the four others. "You wanna go and see?"
With that, all four nodded and ran after Aisha, who began to run off to Tecna's queen ship.
"They're currently in the Southern part of the planet, about to be nearing Bloom's castle."
"We should alert the soldiers there. At least they would be prepared for an attack."
"Good idea, Roxy."
Tecna and Roxy are currently inside an airship, trying to navigate the current area of General Karmegan's army. With the help of Tecna's technologies and some of Roxy's animals scattered around the planet to find any hint of the Army of Darkness, they were getting more and more information as to where the darkness is currently at.
"I should tell the animals to return. They should report their findings to us once I call them." Roxy said, preparing to cast her telepathic powers, but...
"No, Roxy. Not yet. It might be dangerous. Your animals might lure our enemies directly into our battlefield, and it would fast-forward the process." Tecna stopped her, furrowing her eyebrows. "General Karmegan would definitely use your creatures as a bait."
With that reminder, Roxy stopped herself from using the magic. She turned her head to Tecna and furrowed her pale pink eyebrows. "Well, shall you alert the soldiers now?" She asked, crossing her arms and legs, looking into oblivion under a deep thought.
Tecna sighed, facing the computer again, and nodded. "There is no other choice." The fairy of technology replied, then started to type around the keyboard of the computer in front of her right now.
Roxy only stayed quiet and kept thinking on her chair, all the while taking a few glances to Tecna's computer. She had already sent a message to all the soldiers in the Southern Area, she could see that.
"All soldiers of the Southern Area, General Karmegan is nearing your post. Do not panic. Be on your guard and attack from a distance if necessary. Once you see the Army of Darkness nearing you, attack immediately. I repeat, General Karmegan is nearing your post. Do not panic. Be on your guard, and attack from a distance if necessary. Once you see the Army of Darkness nearing you, attack immediately." Tecna's voice echoed around the loud speakers of the South, and Roxy could see through the computer's cameras that the guards are prepared to attack.
Roxy sighed and shook her head, patting Tecna's shoulder. "I'm going to go outside and release some stress. I don't want to be angered enough to go to war." She explained and walked towards the door of the ship.
Tecna nodded and smiled, eyeing the computer. "A lot's been happening today, Roxy. That is probably the greatest idea you have to relax." She said, doing a two-finger salute at Roxy.
Roxy chuckled and waved goodbye to the other fairy before walking out of the ship, finally seeing the people around the battlefield.
All people turned their heads as they saw Roxy walking off to Bloom's castle.
"Ah, it's Queen Roxy of Tir Nan Og!" The fairy of animals heard one of the people whisper to one another, and she could see from the corner of her eye the smiles being offered to her by people and soldiers from the different planets of her friends.
Oh, and speaking of friends...
"Roxy! There you are!" Roxy turned to see Aisha running towards her, with five other familiar faces behind her. Once Aisha had arrived in front of Roxy, she opened her arms for a hug. "Weren't you supposed to be with Tecna so you can look at the areas where Karmegan currently is?" She asked, holding the fairy with the long pink hair.
Roxy giggled and let go of the hug, but still looked at Aisha with a smile. "I was there a while ago, Aisha. I'm just out here trying to release some stress." She replied with a small chuckle.
Bloom poked her shoulder from behind, making Roxy turn. "Hey Roxy." The fairy of dragon fire waved, and hugged the seventh fairy, who hugged back with a smile.
"Hey, you guys." She simply said, and opened her arms for a hug. All girls rushed over to her to perform a group hug.
Roxy brushed them off with a giggle, and pretended to cough. "Well, let's get inside Tecna's ship for some progress, shall we?" She gestured for the other girls to come along, who obeyed and followed her to the ship.
Bloom stopped though, once she remembered something important. "Actually, the council is calling me to a meeting. I'll catch up later." Bloom excused herself, and waved them goodbye as she runs off. "Bye!"
The other fairies waved back, and Roxy turned to them with a smile. "We should get inside." She said to her friends, and entered the fairy of technology's ship.
Roxy came in first, making Tecna turn from her computer. "Oh, Roxy!" She exclaimed, removing her headphones. "You're already back!"
"Yes, but I brought along some friends," She pointed to Stella, Flora, Musa, and Aisha, who immediately rushed to Tecna and tackled her with hugs.
"Ow... guys... I can't... breathe..." Tecna wheezed, trying to get away from her friends' monstrous grips.
"What's the progress so far, Tecna?" Roxy asked, walking up to the fairy of technology, making the other four girls serious as they turned to the computer.
"Well, they're nearing the guards," She replied, pointing to the black and red dots battling each other. Tecna frowned once she saw the red dots decreasing. "and it seems like the guards over the Southern border are being defeated, considering how much they had decreased."
Musa was about to ask another question when the loud speaker inside the ship sounded out, and they recognized the voice as Timmy's, Tecna's husband.
"All Winx girls, please report to the council immediately. I repeat, all Winx girls, please report to the council immediately. Thank you."
That prompted Tecna to stand up and furrow her eyebrows, but didn't turn off her laptop. "Looks like the Council of Eraklyon needs to have a word with us." She told the others, who nodded.
Roxy lead the way to the exit, gesturing the girls to come over with a nod. "Well, what are we waiting for?" She asked with a smirk.
"Let's go."
"Ah, the Winx! Welcome and please, do come in."
The six fairies made their way inside the council room, sitting on the chairs reserved for them. Bloom, who was grinning at them and waving, was sitting just next to her old father. They waved back at her from their seats with a grin.
"I see that all of you are prepared." The old King Oritel stated, smiling at Bloom's friends. "Thank you all for sending your armies in Bloom's aid. We would never be much prepared if it weren't for Tecna, who warned us about this enemy."
Tecna stood up and bowed at King Oritel. "I would do anything to be in aid of your family, my Good Sire." She stated before sitting down on her chair, and smiled at her friends.
Bloom smiled widely, but furrowed her eyes once she realized she had to tell the girls something. "Umm... girls, sorry to break the happiness, but..." She showed them a chart of General Karmegan, and below the picture of the general are various names listed below.
Flora's eyes widened at this. "Wh-What does that mean?"
Bloom sighed and began to demonstrate the chart to them. "This is a chart of General Karmegan's victims," Bloom began, pointing to the slashed out names in the paper. "The slashed once are the fairies, wizards, magical beings, and even normal people whom he destroyed."
Bloom frowned once she got to the non-slashed ones. "The non-slashed ones, meant that they were victims who still didn't get attacked." She tapped her fingers softly on the table. "But he'll come for those people in the non-slashed list."
"And, unfortunately," She paused and took a deep breath. "He's planning on destroying us, too."
Gasps echoed around the room, but no one even protested. Instead, the girls furrowed their eyebrows. "It's obvious, anyway. If we weren't in the list, then why would he suddenly attack?" Roxy suddenly spoke out, and pointed to the paper Bloom was holding. "That makes much sense."
"No, not actually," Stella intervened, glancing at the paper. "He has us in the list - not to mention, the last ones in his list, but what is his reason for attacking us? He couldn't just attack us because he has no reason at all, or he just hates our guts, right? That would be an invalid reason." She explained, crossing her arms.
The Winx fell silent at this, not really knowing the answer to Stella's question.
King Oritel stood up without a word, and exited the room, leaving the Winx alone. Bloom and the others knew what that meant; he would give them time to think things over.
Flora stood up and smiled. "Well, whatever situation we come across, we will go through it together." She winked and gave a thumbs-up. "Right, Winx?"
The others rushed over to Flora and hugged her, punching the air. "RIGHT!" They yelled together, laughing and smiling even though the situation they were in was getting hard. But they knew, that whatever happens, the Winx will fight through it together, and they know their loved ones will fight with them too.
And they knew, their children are safe.
But then, it happened.
*rumble*
*rumble*
*BOOM!*
*BOOM!*
"General Karmegan has arrived! ATTACK!" The girls heard the shouts of the generals outside the courtroom, and they knew what was happening.
When they peeked outside, guns were already fired up ahead, and some at the sky. They opened the door and rushed outside, and saw the army of their enemy.
General Karmegan.
The Winx snarled and rushed back in, holding hands and forming a circle. "Winx, Believix!" They yelled, and soon the seven fairies transformed from normal queens to fairies of Believix.
The flew outside through the window, and began to blast their spells at Karmegan. The general looked up and saw the blasts rushing to him, and he grinned before emitting a black smoke that blocked those attacks.
He laughed evilly as the black smoke subsided, revealing his masked face. "Hahahaha, the Winx have finally shown their filthy faces! How wonderful!" He yelled, and as a black piece of smoke, he flew towards them, like a comet trying to strike down the ground.
The Winx managed to get out of the way, but Karmegan was too fast. With mere seconds, the Winx got hit one by one, and all of them flew to certain directions God-knows-where.
Karmegan returned to his original form and watched the scenery of the war in front of him from the roof of the courtroom. He grinned and snapped his fingers, chuckling to himself. "What a beautiful site." He said to himself, and stood up from his spot. "The Winx are gone, anyway. I'll have to find out where they got to."
His thoughts were interrupted when flocks of birds began pecking him, which annoyed the living hell out of Karmegan. He managed to behead those birds with his power, and turned his head, only to see the Winx all packed up with each other.
He laughed. "Ahahaha, such a dangerous spell you are planning Winx!" He got down from his spot, and prepared a darkness beam himself. "Don't you know that darkness and light, when mixed together, can destroy a whole planet?"
Bloom snarled and continued to do the spell with the others. "Winx, do not mind him! He is only trying to manipulate us!" She yelled, creating a large ball of magic aimed at Karmegan.
The general only grinned as his ball got much larger. "Attack then, and you will pay the price." He chuckled, grinning maliciously at the Winx.
Bloom and the others, once they were finished, aimed at Karmegan, and was ready to destroy him, once and for all.
"WINX, ATTACK!"
They all screamed, and the planet-sized beam was thrown towards Karmegan.
Karmegan growled and through his darkness beam himself, and both magic collided with each other.
It crashed, and the beam spread across the entire planet of Eraklyon.
None knew...
...what had happened next.
I hope you enjoyed the Prologue. And also, thank you very much for sharing your thoughts on the previous Prologue.
I noticed that the names are actually really kind of lame, too, since they are just simple L words. I removed those and replaced it with some names with a meaning.
I'll have to reveal their names here.
1. Carys, Bloom and Sky's daughter, left in Agnivo;
2. Aphrodite, Stella and Brandon's daughter, left in Senadiva;
3. Amanda, Musa and Riven's daughter, left in Calliope;
4. Priya, Flora and Helia's daughter, left in Dzovag;
5. Nayely, Tecna and Timmy's daughter, left in Linux;
6. Kalila, Aisha and Nabu's daughter, left in Thalassa; and
7. Amorette, Roxy and an unknown father's daughter, left in Melisande.
Well, I hope you guys like the changes ;) And also, all have a meaning, and if you take the time to search it all on Google, I would appreciate it.
More notes as the story progresses.
So, I shall leave you here until the next chapter.
Adios!
R&R!
