Chapter 4 (Floras Danger& Helias rescue)
Flora woke up in a dark room she didn't see anything or anyone. She had absolutely no idea where she was. Her hands were tied to something and the ropes felt like knives cutting into her skin.
"B….Bloom? Stella? Musa? Tecna? Is anyone else here?" she asked, scared
I've never felt so alone. She thought
Back with the winx….
" Tecna do you think you can track down Flora?" Musa asked
"not without something to go off of, for example, if she had a digital power and loged online I could find her in a flash but.." Tecna said. Practically thinking out loud
"Ms. Faragonda do you suggest anything?" Bloom asked.
"Yes, Bloom, where is your bonded pixie? Lockette? " Ms. Faragonda asked
"In my room I think, with the other pixies, but why do you want her?" Bloom asked
"Oh I get it! Ms. F thinks we can track down Flora with Lockettes power is that right?" Stella asked Ms. Faragonda
"Exactly" Ms. F said
All the girls starred at Stella
"What? I can be smart sometimes" Stella mumbled
"I think I'm going to call the specialists, we have no idea what you girls are up against, it wouldn't hurt to have some back up" Ms. Faragonda said
This made the worried girls feel a little bit better… But then again….. They felt horrible
The girls got Lockette and waited outside for the specialists.
With Flora….
"Oh stop your whining pixie your giving me a headache!" Someone said behind her.
"Stormy? What are you doing here?" Flora said
"WHAT DO YOU THINK? I TIED MYSELF UP HERE? STUPID" Stormy boomed
Flora frowned, tears came to her eyes, and she started humming
"Ugh! Why won't you just shut up?" Stormy said
Flora got some flash backs and sighed
"You would be surprised how many times I've heard that" she said.
"If these ropes weren't magic proof I'd zap you" Stormy mumbled
"I'm sorry, Stormy, but why are you so against me? Did I do anything to you?" Flora asked
"I… I don't know" Stormy said, and was shocked. Why did she ask me this? Stormy thought
"Where are we?" Flora asked
"I don't know that, either, I just know that I was knocked out and tied up, then some dude told Icy and Darcy to follow his orders or else he'd kill me." Stormy said.
She's being nice to me now? Did I hit a weak spot? Stormy is usually the most violent one in their group Flora thought Flora reached over to stormy rope and tried to untie it but it was too tight. They both sighed. We have got to get out of here She thought then a mysterious figure came out of nowhere.
"Ahh, Flora and Stormy. Two out of the 5 I need. Tell me, Flora, do you think your friends are coming to save you?" A mans voice said
"Who…. Who are you?" Flora asked
"Someone, you don't need to know, I must admit you are pretty… too bad I have to take your powers away" He said
Flora shook in fear when he traced her face with a finger
"Leave her alone!" Stormy yelled
The man chuckled
"Why? So you can destroy the pixy on your own? Lets face it, you two are natural enemies" the man said and walked away from Flora
Flora shook in fear. If she could transform, she would have more courage.
"What do you want with us?" Flora whispered.
"Why would I tell you? I like the element of surprise. You will both know when the rest of your little friends get here, I have traps to set" The man said and the dark figure faded away.
"It's so dark in here that's all I can see of him" Stormy mumbled "Are you okay Flora?"
Flora was shocked, why is she being so nice? "Mhm" she said
Back with the winx…
The specialist ship pulled into the quad. Helia was nervous, he decided today was the day he is going to tell Flora he loves her. He built up all his courage and was ready, but when the specialist walked outside, he saw everyone, except Flora.
All the girls were excited to see their boyfriends. They ran up and welcomed them with friendly smiles. Layla got annoyed
"Excuse me, but we are kind of on a mission here" Layla said
"Hey where's Flora?" Riven asked
Helia started listening then he looked at the girls, and all the girls looked at Bloom.
"Well… Flora was kidnapped by the Trix" Bloom said
"WHAT?" Helia yelled and made a fist.
Everyone turned and looked at him, wide-eyed and shocked. He got mad and went inside the ship. Flora's in danger and everyone else is just STANDING there! If she gets hurt I swear I'm going to… he thought and got interrupted by Bloom telling the story of what happened. Then they all got in their seats.
"Lockette, do you think you can use your wand to point out a safe way to track Flora?" Tecna asked
"I don't know but I'll try" The cute little pixy said.
She pulled of her burette off and it turned into a wand and floated up into the air. The wand pointed north and the boys stared the engine and flew in the air.
Hold on Flora Helia thought we're coming...
Back with Flora…
"Hold on Flora, I'll get us out of here" Stormy said.
Since they were facing back to back, Flora could feel Stormy struggling to free from the ropes. Stormy, on the other hand, was freaking out. She couldn't figure out why she was being so nice to someone she hated. But then, she realized that she was the bad one, the whole time. If someone treated her the way the trix treat Flora, she wouldn't be able to live with her self. She's really not that bad Stormy thought I almost forgot why I hate her.
"It's ok stormy." Flora said.
"It's ok? What do you mean? I have got to get out of here! "Stormy said but stopped trying to untie herself.
"Why are you being so nice to me?" Flora asked
"I don't know! But it never leaves this room!" Stormy said pretending to be annoyed
Flora nodded and started humming her song. She looked around to see if she could see anything. But there was nothing but complete darkness. Am I in a room? Or a cave? Well, for all I know, I could be in the park and I wouldn't even notice. It's so dark. I hope Stella doesn't come in here. She would not last very long. What am I saying? They probably don't even notice I am gone.
With the winx and specialists…
"Okay guys you ready?" Sky asked.
Helia was already at the door of the ship, wearing his laser glove and holding his sword. All the girls transformed so they would be ready for practically anything.
"Ok, safest entrance is in there" Lockette said and pointed towards practically nothing
"Um, Lockett..." Layla said
"THERE IS NOTHING OVER THERE!" Stella pointed out
"Wait; let me see if I can turn the entrance visible" Tecna said and flew outside
Tecna took her handheld computer out and scanned the area. Then she held out her hand
"Digital Flames!" She yelled and the entrance appeared
"Nice going Tecna!" everyone cheered.
Everyone prepared themselves and exited the ship. They walked into the gigantic palace like mountain. (As big as a mountain shaped like a palace) they were all on guard. When suddenly a wall came down from the ceiling. The wall separated the people into groups
(Helia, Lockette, Bloom, Brandon, Musa, Layla) (Other group, Riven, Sky, Tecna, Timmey, Stella)
"We can't get over there!" Sky yelled from one side of the brick wall.
"The wall has to go back up sometime; we'll keep following Lockettes wand until we find Flora. One of us will comeback for you later!" Bloom yelled. Helia was already following Lockett, and walking away. I swear I'll find you Flora he thought and later, maybe I'll show you a way to communicate from a distance. Just in case. "Stormy stop! You're going to hurt yourself!" Flora said, worried.
Back with Flora….
A chuckle came out of thin air. Flora shook in fear and Stormy went stiff when the dark figure appeared.
"Your farie friends are here." The deep voice said.
"Who are you?" Stormy yelled
"You really want to know?" The man asked
"NO I WAS ASKING FOR NO REASON!" Stormy screamed sarcastically
"I am Maxuell! Prince of Darkness! I need all of you for an elemental spell I am working on. But, Flora, I might change my mind if you consider marrying me. Because, then, I will be king of darkness, and have a beautiful queen by my side" Maxuell said
Flora shuddered when she felt someone caress her head and a scream began to form in her throat
"You hear that?" Stormy asked "That means no." She continued than laughed
"FINE! IF YOU WANT IT THAT WAY THEN I'LL SHOW YOU WHAT ELSE I CAN DO!" Maxuell yelled
Flora felt a hand pulling on her arm. Before she knew it she was flying though the air and hit a wall. Then she fell until she hit the floor. A burning feeling went up the arm she landed on. She couldn't stand up because of the ropes I… I think it's broken Flora thought. Blinking back tears. A scream ached in her throat. Then she felt herself be pulled by her hair, and she flew and hit a wall again. This time she screamed in mid air; so loud she thought the other Alfea could hear her. Her eyes began to close. It's better this way… I won't feel anything. Flora thought and she fainted.
With Helia…
How far are we? We are running, yet, it seems like we're not getting any closer to her. Then his heart jumped when he heard a Scream that was cut short,
"Flora!" Bloom yelled and everyone ran faster until they found a room with no light. Streaming out. They sneaked in the door, And hid behind a giant pillar. Then a man with a red jacket, white shirt, black hair, and black pants turned a light on. The room was completely made of marble. It was long and in the middle of it was a tied up Stormy. On the far wall was an unconscious Flora. Flora! Helia thought and made a fist. Bloom put her hand on his shoulder, she wanted to find out more before they started to battle. But, even though the man didn't know, Helia was giving him a death glare….
(( Note: No one dies in my stories unless they are already dead))
Altogether…
"Why did you do that to her? I am the one who did all the talking!" Stormy yelled.
Stupid man, what the heck does he want anyway? Stormy thought
"I know. But I don't like to be told no, proposing or not." Maxuell said
"Idiot.." Stormy mumbled.
Maxuell walked up to Flora and waved a hand over her, to read how her mind would answer his questions.
"Flora will you Marry me and be my queen?" Maxuell asked, pretty rudely
Behind the pillar, Helia made a fist. He wanted to jump out there and save her. Musa and Bloom put their hands on his shoulders, to hold him back.
There was a silence in the room for a couple of seconds. Then a voice sounded like it came out of Flora.
"No" the voice said.
"Ha!" Stormy said.
"Silence!" Maxuell screamed.
"FINE THEN, FLORA, FEEL MY WRATH!" Maxuell yelled and powers formed a glowing ball in his palm. It got bigger and bigger, then he aimed it for Flora.
"NO!" Helia yelled and went out of the girls grasp. He whipped his laser strings around Maxuells Arm. That made him miss aim and hit the ceiling, forming a huge hole.
"Now girls!" Bloom yelled.
Helia let go of Maxuell, now that his attention was focused on something else, and not Flora. Maxuell aimed a power ball at Helia and he dodged it
"Dragon flame!" Bloom yelled and it hit Maxuell.
Helia ran towards Flora. He took out his sword and cut off the ropes on her hands and feet. He rubbed the red spots on her wrists where it cut off her circulation and sighed with relief when he felt a pulse. She's alive…. At least. In pain is a different story. I'm never going to let this happen to her again, and If it does I will never forgive myself. Helia thought and lifted her up and held her protectively.
"You were thinking like that?" Maxuell said. His eyes went wide in pain and he started screaming and yelling in pain. Until he disappeared.
"What were you thinking man?" Musa asked
"um.. Nothing." Helia said.
All the girls giggled. Then they untied Stormy.
"Do we have to fight you, too?" Bloom asked, prepared
Stormy ignored her "Is she alive? She took a big hit but was pretty brave, didn't scream until the end. To be she looked like a fragile little doll. It kind of tore me apart and…." Stormy said and was interrupted by all the weird stares.
"Anyway, as soon as we leave this room, we are enemies again. Got it?" Stormy said. Everyone nodded and she flew out the hole in the ceiling
"Flora? Flora can you hear me?" Helia asked
I hear you Helia, just let me sleep a little while longer Flora thought
"Helia she's fine, lets go back to the others and bring her home to Alfea, so she doesn't have to wake up in here." Bloom said.
Helia carried Flora to the others, the ship, and held her on the way back. Everyone pretends to not notice.
At Alfea….
Flora opened her eyes slowly and saw Helia and the Winx starring at her. She Blushed and raised her right arm to fix her hair, then winced because of the pain.
"Are you ok flora? What's wrong with your arm? Here I'll scan it…" Tecna said and scanned her arm "Oh.. I see its broken, I'll go get the nurse.." She said and ran out of the room.
That's when Flora realized Helia was holding her left hand, because he squeezed it, and she blushed.
" Can I have a moment alone with Flora before the nurse comes?" Helia asked the winx and they all left the room. He sat on the bed.
"Is everything alright Helia?" Flora asked
Why is she asking me that? Helia thought and nodded This is awkward Flora thought and waited. Helia eventually hugged her
"Don't EVER scare me like that again! You hear me? Do you have any idea what it was like to see someone you love on the floor crippled? It's not a happy feeling I can tell you that and…" He paused.
"You love me?" Flora asked
Helia got nervous oh.. I did say that… didn't I? he thought
"Yes" He said "I do"
Flora blushed. " I love you, too" she said
