Chapter 7: Fire and Lightning
The Oracle walked Bloom through the large areas of Kandrakar. The Fairy of the Dragon Flame was nonetheless impressed by the place's large structure, but concerned at the same time as well. All of a sudden, a large rumbling started to fill the area. Luba and Halindor both ran to the Oracle as he let Bloom come in after him. "The witches came a while back, and they stole our Sword of Kandrakar!" Halindor exclaimed anxiously. Bloom gasped in surprise as she looked to the Oracle, who just stood there and nodded. "That's why the Fairy of Domino is here, my friends." He replied back. Luba looked around and panted. "The Heart of Kandrakar is trying to tell us something!" she stated. The Oracle once again nodded and looked to Bloom. "It seems that Will is struggling within in order to regain control." He stated. Bloom looked to the Oracle and nodded. "I'll be willing to do anything it takes to help bring back Will!" she enthusiastically said. The three beings of Kandrakar nodded and started to walk into a room.
Bloom tried to hold herself as she walked through the large, quaking grounds of Kandrakar. Will is counting on me! I need to get her back through any means possible! Bloom thought to herself desperately. The terrain there was rough, as Will was undoubtedly struggling to make sure that she would win and not her dark self. Bloom tried to gain some ground as the earthquakes started to grow stronger. All of a sudden, the earthquakes, the seismic activity, it all stopped. The Oracle looked around as Luba and Halindor regained their footing. "What happened?" Bloom asked. The Oracle looked around and sighed. "I have reason to believe that Will has now become unstable, and if her light and dark sides are unbalanced, then it might lead to her death." The Oracle darkly stated. Bloom gasped as she ran up to the Oracle. "How can I save her?" she asked desperately.
At that moment, Luba walked up to the Aurameres. "Will's Auramere appears to recognize your strong potential, Fairy of the Dragon Flame." She stated. Bloom walked over and her eyes widened. "If you are to train to combat Will, then you must gain the powers to be able to counter her in battle." The Oracle explained. Bloom stood there as she thought about the decision to make. If Will dies, then who will lead the Guardians? She thought to herself. Finally, after taking a couple of deep breaths, she looked sternly to the Oracle and nodded. "I'm ready to begin." She replied. The Oracle nodded as Bloom was soon shown into a large room. "It is now time to begin your training." He stated. Bloom took a deep breath before stepping forwards. "Let's work." She quipped.
Luba nodded and spread her arms out, encircling them multiple times before pointing them towards the Dragon Flame Fairy. Bloom gasped as Will's Auramere sent a blast out towards her. Bloom held out her Box of Sirenix as a large, silver dragon manifested from the orb and at Bloom's body. Soon, an electrical surge was sent through the Fairy's body, causing her to groan in pain. I must master this power! Bloom told herself in her head, panting from the strain put on her on the outside as well. After struggling to control the Quintessence, Bloom threw her arms out and ended her pain, causing a large amount of Auramere energy to flow through her body. The Oracle smiled slightly as the Fairy of the Dragon Flame started to smile. "Will holds the power of Quintessence, and now, with the newfound power you possess, you do too." The Oracle stated. Bloom looked up and nodded as she continued to flow with electric and limitless power. "There's something more to this, isn't there?" she questioned.
The Oracle nodded as he flew over to one side of the room across from Bloom. "You must be able to master Quintessence in order to take on the Keeper of the Heart." He explained. Bloom nodded as she got into a fighting stance. "Prepare for your lesson, Bloom! I am your enemy, and I assure you, I will not be holding back!" he yelled. Bloom smirked as she put her arms out in front of her while encircling her body with her left foot. She then started to extend her right hand out in front of her with two fingers pointing up. She then placed her other hand out, crossing her arms, reversing the position of her right arm with her left, and then spreading them apart. Shortly after, she started to chant, "Magic Winx, Sirenix!" Next, she placed her hands to her chest in an X shape before pulling them back to both sides of her waist and placing her arms back out with one hand near her waist and the other hand pointing outwards. The Oracle watched with interest as Bloom began to transform into her Fairy form.
"Bloom, Fairy of the Dragon Flame!" she called out. After a while, she emerged from a large orb and was now in her Sirenix Form. "Let's get to work!" she quipped. The Oracle smirked and started to encircle his arms. "Behold the power of Quintessence!" he proclaimed. With that, he sent a Quintessence attack from his arms at Bloom. Bloom gasped and placed her arms out in front of her. "Quintessence Power!" Bloom yelled. At first, nothing happened. The Fairy of the Dragon Flame was soon knocked back and into the air. "Damn these new powers!" she cursed to herself angrily. She then looked back to the Oracle, now smirking. Bloom took a deep breath and jumped into the air. "Dragon Energy!" she exclaimed. With that spell, she twirled into the air and started to glow once again. "Quintessence Power!" she yelled out. An attack came from her body at that moment, but not one that she had expected. A ball of fire appeared and was sent flying towards the Oracle, but the elder saw this coming and used a Water attack to counter it. Bloom got back into the air and cursed again at her failure to master Quintessence. "Son of a–" She started out, but didn't finish due to a sudden attack from the Oracle.
Bloom twirled away and panted as she flew around. Focus, Bloom! What can you do to make this new power work? She asked herself in angst. The Oracle started to near Bloom as she was lost in her thoughts. Bloom was about to be attacked by the Oracle once again, but a shield was made in front of her, blocking the Oracle from her path. Concentrate, Bloom, and focus! Be at one with yourself and your power! A voice said in her head. Bloom gasped and looked around. There, to her surprise, was her sister from Domino and in her Fairy Form, Daphne! Bloom stuttered as Daphne held her hand. "Be at one with yourself and your powers, and everything will be sure to work out!" Daphne instructed. Bloom looked to her sister and nodded. "Thank you, Daphne." She said. The blonde fairy nodded and smiled as she disappeared and returned to her home planet of Domino.
Bloom jumped into the air and spread out her arms, unleashing her power and eliminating the bubble put around her. The Oracle looked to her and gasped, but soon smiled as he saw that Bloom was now glowing with both her fire and her new Quintessence powers! "Sirenix Convergence, Quintessence/Fire Strike!" Bloom yelled out, sending out her dragon. The Oracle gasped and attempted to counterattack until the combination attack hit him hard.
Bloom landed back on Kandrakar and gasped at what she had done. When the smoke cleared, the Oracle emerged, indicating that he was alright. Bloom smiled as she looked to the Oracle floating towards her. "Bloom Parks, you have now gained the powers of Quintessence. Use this power wisely, for you shall need it sooner than you think." The Oracle stated. Bloom nodded at this. "I shall go to help my friends and to rescue Will." She exclaimed enthusiastically. The Oracle nodded and made a rip in the Veil for her to go through. "I sense your friends need you now." He calmly said. Bloom smiled and nodded as she walked over to the portal. Before she left, she ran over to the Oracle and hugged him. The Oracle was taken aback by this at first, but eventually let it pass as Bloom let go and then left to meet up with the rest of the Winx and WITCH. "When the time comes, you and Will shall know the secret." The Oracle said to himself before he closed the Veil soon after.
Back on Earth, the Winx and ITCH, as well as Shagon, all saw the Trix and Nerissa up ahead. "If we stop them, then it all ends!" Aisha exclaimed. The rest of the girls and Matt nodded as they all flew off towards the area. Unbeknownst to any of them, Dark Will was watching from the shadows. Her eyes glowed yellow as she cackled softly to herself and flew quickly after them.
