Note: First of all I want to apologize for not updating. I'm so sorry it took over a month. I've just busy with final hw assignment and final exams. I also been on vacation so didn't have internet connection for a while. Once again I'm sorry and hope you enjoy this chapter. Don't worry I am going to finish this story. Thank you.
"Which way now?" Celeste asked who tried to look down each hallway in hope she was able to see something. Only a few inches from the entrance could be seen, then complete darkness.
"Mel, can't you send out a sound wave to examine them?" Maya suggested
"Good idea" Melody send out a sound wave into the hallway and listen carefully before going to the next one. When she was done, she walked to the entrance of the hallway that was to the right of them. "The other two lead to a dead end. I also picked up some movements. Orgone probably has some of his monsters down there. This one, I didn't receive anything."
"We are going to need light" Maya said
"Leave that to me" Celeste said as she created an orb of light in her hand. She lead the way next to Melody, who was listening carefully for any sudden surprise. After a long while of walking in silence through the hallway, they were able to see a light at the end. They walked toward it cautiously, hoping it was the way out. Or to the room where their parents were held prisoners.
"Wait" Melody stopped at the end of the hallway as she grabbed Celeste just before she stepped over the end of the hallway which was a cliff that hung over a deep abyss below. Everybody looked down, but were unable to see the bottom. Bridget kicked a pebble over and waited to hear it hit the ground.
"I don't hear anything. Did it hit the ground yet?" Bailey asked
"Yea and it's a long way down." Melody replied.
"The hallway continues on the other side. I guess its time to transform." Victoria pointed out.
"Winx!" The girls changed into their fairy form and flew over. When they landed on the other side, Maya stepped in front of them.
"What's wrong Maya?" Rosie asked
"I think we should transform out. Remember we have to conserve our energy." she said as she changed out of her fairy form. The other girls agreed and also transformed out. Victoria took the turn to create a light source to lead the way alongside with Melody. Few minutes of walking, the hallway had lead them to a round room that was light up by torches. Victoria let out her flame and grabbed one of the torches off the wall.
"Ugh! The hallway continues on the other side" Celeste said annoyed, pointing over to the other hallway entrance.
"What is it?" Maya asked, noticing Melody draw up her sword. Before Melody could answer, a growl echoed the room. Soon after a merewolf popped out from the opposite hallway. Bailey, who had her bow ready, shot an arrow at the wolf. The arrow hit center of the forehead of the merewolf who dropped to the ground dead.
"Way to go Bailey!" Victoria cheered
"You might want to hold on to the cheers. We have more company" Melody said before four more merewolves came out from the hallway. Bailey shot again but the merewolves were able to dodge it.
"Solar Storm!" Celeste aimed at one of the wolves. He was hit but it didn't do much effect on him beside anger him. "That's my strongest attack. My powers are draining faster than I thought"
"Winter Rose" Rosie called out quickly to create a wall of vines to separate them from the wolves. The wolves were able to slash it down. One of the merewolves jumped forward and strike Rosie who fell to the floor unconscious. Victoria and Celeste got cornered by one of the wolves and the twins deal with the third one. Maya and Melody battled with the fourth wolf. The wolf reached out and snapped it's jaw toward Maya, but she smacked the bo staff down on the snout. It backed up for a moment before jumping between them, causing both of them to fall backward. Melody didn't have the chance to look around for her sword when the wolf jumped on top of her.
"Disco Shield!" Melody called out to protect her from the wolf's snapping jaw. It only took the wolf a few second to break the shield, but by then Maya had grabbed hold of her staff. She ran over and swing the bo staff with full force into the side of the wolf. But what happen next, amazed both Maya and Melody. An energy beam shot out from the gem of the staff, which sent the wolf flying across the room. The wolf hit the wall and slide down to the floor. "Wooow…some staff" Melody commented Maya who was helping her up.
"Yea..." Maya smiled, looking over at the wolf who hasn't gotten up and didn't look to be getting up anytime soon.
"Come on, lets help the others." Melody said before grabbing her sword off the floor.
The twins had already taken down their wolf after a series of bows and lasers were shot into it. Now they were battling the wolf that attacked Rosie, who was still unconscious on the floor. Bridget shot her laser gun at the wolf, trying to get it to back away from the nature fairy. Bailey tried again to shot an arrow at the merewolf. So far it been able to dodge all of them. They were successful to get the wolf to leave Rosie alone but now it was running toward them. It strike down Bailey and kicked Bridget back with it's hind leg.
"Bailey!" Bridget cried out as the wolf growled at her unconscious sister. She tried to get up but the wolf had kicked her in the stomach and making any movement hurt. As the wolf open it's jaw, thin glowing ropes wrapped around his snout shut. Bridget followed where the ropes came from. Rosie's gloves. She was wide awake and fearless. It always amazed her to see Rosie like this.
"Rose thorns!" Rosie called out when the wolf broke loose from the ropes. The wolf backed away when thorns pierced into it's face. Bridget forgot her pain and got up. She took this chance to grab her laser gun and aim into the forehead of the wolf. Another one down.
"Bailey, wake up" Rosie babbled out, holding back her cry. She felt it was her fault Bailey was hurt.
"Sis please wake up" Bridget said also holding back her cry.
Meanwhile, Melody and Maya were helping Victoria and Celeste with the last wolf.
"Back off!" Celeste said frighten, as she swung her sword around. One of her swings managed to hit the side of the wolf's head. Victoria was able to block one of the wolf's strike. Suddenly the wolf yelped. She looked up to see a sword lodge into the back of the wolf. Then a purple beam hit the wolf right away from them. The last wolf was down.
"Nice throw" Victoria heard Maya compliment Melody.
"Thanks" Melody replied. She went over to get her sword out from the wolf.
"Girls!" They heard Rosie cried out. They ran over to see Bailey being cradled by Bridget.
"She's not waking up.." Bridget said
"Maybe I can help. I have healing abilities." Victoria spoke gently to Bridget. She placed her hands over Bailey's body. Soon Bailey started to glow and so was Victoria. Then the glowing stop.
"Bailey?" Victoria said. Bailey's eyes slowly opened and looked up to see everyone staring at her.
"Uhm.. Is something wrong? Did we win?" Bailey asked, acting as nothing had happen to her.
"She's fine" Bridget smiled and hugged her sister. "And yea we won. Those merewolves didn't have a chance against us."
"Okay now that she's fine, can we please leave. I think I'm getting sick of the smell of these merewolves and the blood.." Celeste said, ewwing around the room.
"Come on" Maya said while Melody rolled her eyes annoyed at Celeste's comments. After minutes walking through the hallway, Celeste broke the silence.
"When are we getting there. Are we even going to the right way anymore" Celeste questioned
"Just be patient" Victoria said
"Did you expect this to be an easy mission? This is Orgone's Castle." Melody pointed out
"Hey another light but it's very dim" Rosie said, noticing it first. They appeared into another round room.
"Oh great. Again this. I really don't want to battle anymore merewolves." Celeste whined
"Does it continue?" Rosie asked, not able to see the other side. There was only a small torch to light up the entrance of the room.
"Shh" Melody said, waving her hand to signal the others to silence. When the girls quiet down, Melody moved forward a little bit. "Who's there" she said out loud. The girls were confused and looked around. They jumped to hear a female voice reply.
"Who is asking?"
"I asked first" Melody replied. Whispers and movements could be heard. "Celeste, Victoria. We need more lights" Melody whispered to them. Celeste and Victoria nodded. The two created a spell to light up the whole room. They were surprise to see what was in the room once it light up. Six jail area that held a woman and a man. Except the last one which only had a man.
"My name is Bloom" the female who replied earlier said.
Victoria walked passed Melody and up to the cage where the women with long red hair stood. "Mom" Victoria could barely speak out, who was on the verge of crying.
"Victoria You grew up so fast" Bloom cried out and stretched her arms out to hug her daughter. A man came up beside Bloom and hugged Victoria too.
"Dad!" Victoria said, finally bursting in tears.
"Hey" Sky said softly.
Each of the girls ran over to the one who called out their names.
"Mom, Dad. I'm so happy to see you." Celeste said, tears flowing down her cheeks.
"Look at you. A beautiful young lady" Stella said, stroking Celeste's hair.
"Girls. What happen to you" Tecna said, taking hold of each of the twin's hand and examining the scratch marks on them.
"Its nothing" The twins replied together, smiling at their mom and dad.
"I miss you my Maya. How are you?" Layla said as she hugged her daughter
"I'm fine Mom. I'm fine now" Maya replied
"How did you get my staff?" Nabu asked
"This is yours? I thought it looked familiar." Maya smiled, happy to find out it was her dad's staff. She had forgot her dad was a wizard, and about the family staff that gets handed down to the next generation. It's always been given to the son "Here you go Dad"
"I think you should keep. I want you to have it." Nabu said. Maya smiled and felt proud to be given the family staff.
"Rosie, I'm so proud of you. So brave to come down here to find us." Flora said as she wiped away Rosie's tears.
"Thanks mom" Rosie replied smiling
"Dad?" Melody said
"Hey Melbell" Riven smiled and squeezed Melody's hand
"Where's mom?"
"He..has her" Riven said and looked down. Melody reached out and lifted up her dad's face.
"Don't worry. We will get her back." Melody reassured and hugged her dad.
"Girls" Melody called out to the others. "We need to find a way to get them out."
"We had tried to break the spell but nothing happens." Tecna sighed
"We even combined all of our magic to break the spell. None of our convergence spell worked" Stella added.
"What if we combine all of your magic and… ours" Victoria suggested.
"Well with that much magic we might be able to" Tecna said
"Have you girls done a convergence spell?" Bloom questioned
"Only one time" Victoria refer to when they escaped from the room the Witches locked them up in.
"That's good. Let's do it then" Bloom said. The girls stood beside each other and grabbed hand.
"Convergence" The girls and the mothers called out at the same time. The fathers covered their eyes from the light, as it sting their eyes. Once the light dimmed down, everyone looked to see the bars that holding the parents as prisoners were gone.
"We did it" Victoria stuttered out. "We did it!" she said again happier.
"Yes we did." Bloom said
"After so many years, we are free." Stella said
"Not yet. We have to save Musa" Riven said
"And take down Orgone." Bloom added
Note: Thank you for reading. Next chapter will be where I left off with Musa stopping Orgone.
