Chapter 1: A Mysterious Quest

Shimmering sunlight were flirting with the glass water on the surface of the ocean. The sun's glares were reflected by an enormous fake mirror. The whole realm seemed to be drowsing under the soft golden sky. It was quiet. The silence only tore when a magic portal appeared and a hover-ship flew out.

'Welcome to Andros', Princess Aisha shouted from the flying vehicle. 'It's wonderful', Flora opened the window and looked out, tried to find the smell of the soft wind and hear the whispered of the ocean. 'Perfect', Stella commented 'Musa, can you give us some music?' 'Hey', Flora frowned 'I'm trying to feel the soul of nature. Would you please be quiet?' Those words irritated Stella. She stood up 'What do you mean?'

'Stop arguing, girls', Bloom said 'And take your seat firmly because we're going to land' 'I'm lowering the height', Tecna confirmed 'Don't forget to put on your seat belts', Aisha reminded 'This is the first time we drive this hover-ship ourselves'

Aisha looked at the screen and pressed some of the control buttons. Bloom focused on the empty area which they would land. Tecna also looked at the screen and corrected something. The hover-ship landed safety and the girls walked out.

The Royal Guards had already been there. 'Princesses, Ladies, welcome' they bowed. The Winx followed the guards to the Royal Palace.

After greeting the King and Queen of Andros in the throne room, the Winx were pulled to the ballroom nearby by Aisha.

'Now', tell us what is the matter', Bloom said. Flora closed the door. 'It seem like you don't want your parents to know', Stella mused. 'Yes', Aisha confessed 'Tressa felt something strange around here, so she ask me to have a check on it' 'And you don't want your parents to be worry?' Tecna looked at Aisha. She nodded 'Because I'm not sure if it is true.' 'So tell us what did Tressa see and feel', Musa asked. 'Well', Aisha answered 'Two days ago…'

Suddenly, the girls heard a large sound and some screaming voices. Flora and Bloom looked out of a window. There was something wrong far away in the ocean. Smoke almost covered all over the place.

'What's happening?' Stella asked. 'We'd better check it out', Aisha responded.

'Magic Winx', they shouted in unison 'Bloomix'

The Winx flew there. They saw two strangers who were also flying on the sky. One had straight long light blue hair let loose and wore a dark stylish decorated outfits, another was young, with golden half bun and half plait hair. She was dressed mostly in white. She was beautiful and coldly. Around them, there were very strong potential of negative energy power.

'Dark magic', Flora gasped. 'It occupied about 84.5% of the magic in this area', Tecna looked at her analyzing device. 'They are strong', Musa commented. 'What do you girls think, Bloom, Aisha?' Stella turned around 'Where are they?' 'Over there', Tecna responded, pointing her finger where those strangers were.

'Who are you and what are you doing here?' Bloom shouted. 'As a Princess of Andros, I command you to leave right now, destroyers', Aisha frowned. 'Well', the girl who dressed in dark replied 'I'm honor to meet you, Princess. But get out of my way'. She then shot a pale pink ray toward Aisha. It was too fast and she couldn't dodge it.

'Ouch', she screamed painfully. 'Are you ok?' Bloom asked. 'I'm alright now', Aisha replied 'But be careful, Bloom. It was venom power.' Bloom nodded.

'Come on', the Witch of Venom said 'You're so lame' 'You…' Bloom opened her eyes widely 'Do you know who we are?' 'Of course', the one wearing mostly in white answered 'Bloom and Aisha, the Winx. I'm so scared.' 'They always say that you're powerful, but in fact, you're NOTHING', the other witch added.

These words made Bloom angry 'Volcanic Attack'. A reddish colorful steam of fire flowed toward the witches, but they managed to dodge it.

'Snow Wind Blast', the golden hair girl pointed her finger at Bloom. Strong powerful wind formed a blast and flew toward her. It was very strong.

'Good job, Melanie', the Witch of Venom said. Melanie smiled.

'Morphix Cloud' Aisha used her magic to form a protective shield. 'Light Spectrum', Stella shot Melanie.

'Oh, the Winx', the Witch of Venom whispered to her sister 'Melanie, you take care of those losers and I get the stone.' 'Alright, Sian', Melanie smirked 'Leave them to me'.

Melanie lifted her hand up and attacked the fairies, using her magic. 'Organic Shield' 'Solar Halo' Tecna and Stella formed a yellowish green shield in other to stop the bolts. 'Crystal Voice', Musa shot, Melanie dodged it. 'Water Bolt', Aisha commanded. 'Snow Blast', Melanie fought back.

[…]

'When they're fighting', Sian smirked 'I'll…' 'Who do you think you are?' a voice surprised her. Sian turned back 'Bloom?' she gasped.

It was quite a surprise for Sian to see Bloom there. It seemed like Bloom had figured out her trick. What an intelligent girl. Sian looked at Bloom and gave her an evil smirked.

'I'll not let you get what you want, witch', Bloom glared. 'Oh', Sian stared at Bloom 'Who do you think you are? You're nothing, Bloom, and so are your friends.'

Bloom opened her eyes widely and gave Sian an angry look.

'Well', Sian continued 'I've heard about you, the Winx. Actually, you're just only lucky girls. In fact, you're so weak, losers.' 'Be quiet!' Bloom shouted.

But it only made Sian talk more 'Take you as an example. They say that you're strong, but that's not right. You won Tritannus because his carelessness made him lose his trident. In reality, you couldn't defeat him with your own power. Am I right?'

'You…you…' Bloom started to be angry.

'I haven't finished yet', the Witch of Venom kept going on 'Your latest achievement in the battle against the force of the Legendarium.' she smirked 'You're shown even weaker than Selina, your greatest enemy, I mean, your childhood friend. You won her in Tir Nan Og because she didn't try her best, and when she did in your latest battle, you lost. You won Acheron thanks to your luck because you used lame trick, but you succeed. And you were fortunate because that loser Selina gave up and locoked the book. If it hadn't happened, you wouldn't have stood a chance.' 'That's over', Bloom shouted 'I have about enough of it'.

She seemed to be on fire. She clenched her fists and hatred was burning in her eyes. Sian stared at Bloom.

'Now', she whispered 'Show me what you have got'.

It was a way for Sian to test her enemy's power. If someone was angry, they usually showed off. And that's what she wanted.

'Flame Storm and Vortex Burst', Bloom's attack was strong, but it wasn't her best. Sian dodged it and shot back, it was quite powerful. Bloom didn't know what to do.

'Solar Halo', a shiny shield appeared and protected Bloom. 'You're just in time, Stella', the Fairy of the Dragon Flame thanked her friend.

Not far from that, Melanie was fighting against Musa, Tecna, Flora and Aisha. 'I will never win if I fight this way. Let me try something else.' she thought.

The Witch of Snow turned her target to the ocean and froze it. The mermen and mermaids were scared and screaming. It made the Fairy of Wave fly down and help her people.

Sian took that advantage and shot Aisha. She flew down to the frozen ocean. 'Aisha', Stella shouted. Musa gasped. 'Don't worry', Flora said 'We'll save you'. Tecna glared at Sian. Sian did nothing, but smirked 'I won't let you do that'.

It was the last straw. Yes, to Bloom, it was. She was very angry at Sian's words before, but she still managed to hold it. And now, seeing that witch shot her friend, who was trying to save her people, to Bloom, it was unacceptable.

She opened her eyes widely, gritted her teeth and clenched her fists. Her eyes were full of anger and she was likely to be on fire. 'Dragon Fire', she commanded 'Dragon of the Magic Dimension. I order you to attack!'

A red powerful dragon flew out from her chest and spread its power all around.

The ice on the surface of the ocean melt, everything returned to normal. Sian and Melanie were defeated.

'We'd better leave', Sian said. 'But, how about the Abstruse Aquamarine, we have to get it?' Melanie responded. 'Don't worry', Sian smirked 'I have what I want now. The Abstruse Aquamarine, we'll take it latter.'

'Now that I know how strong you are, Bloom. It is only a matter of time until I defeated you and all your friends. Don't forget it, Winx.'

Sian and Melanie then disappeared.

When the witches had gone, the Winx gathered around. They were exhausted, but they still wanted to discuss about what had happened. Their tired wings shone brightly under the glare of the sun.

'Sian and Melanie', Flora mused 'Who are they?' 'We only know that they are witches', Stella said. 'And what are they doing here, in Andros?' Aisha looked worried. 'And what do they want?' Bloom asked. 'I don't know', Musa glanced at her friends, 'But I heard they talked about something called the Abstruse Aquamarine.' 'Ok', Tecna proposed 'Let go back to Alfea and check it out.

The girls used their power and teleported back to their school, leaving their hover-ship there. They didn't mind about it. What they needed now was the answer to what had happened today.
