Confidential Winx Chapter 14
Layla ran through the space between dimensions. She saw something up ahead. I'm almost there! There is just a little more space to cover, Layla thought.
Alex jerked awake. Someone ran into me, she thought. She blinked her eyes a few times and saw Grace and Alyssa on the ground in front of her. They must have been knocked down, she thought.
"What is this place?" Ronald asked. He had woken up also.
"I don't like it here." Henry commented shivering.
"What is going on?" Daniel asked much more concerned with the battle in front of them.
"What they said." Alex added standing up.
"That evil maniac right there," Gaby pointed to Musa, "has taken over an entire magical dimension and will do the same with Earth unless we do something about it." Gaby explained still lying on the ground.
"Oh, well that makes sense." Daniel replied sarcastically.
"It will if you get used to it." Alyssa said getting up.
"There is NO time for chit chat we need to get into action." Tori demanded. "Plastic Element," Tori shouted creating gray-white sludge that was headed toward Musa.
Musa said haughtily "That won't" Grace cut her off.
"Molten Lava," Grace said joining Tori's attack.
The attack pushed Musa back, but did no damage. "You can't expect something like that to work." She said.
"What do we do?" Candace was panicking.
"If only I could get up!" Gaby complained to herself.
"Morphix Wave" Layla came running in fully transformed and attacked. Musa dodged it and it headed toward Gaby. Crap, not again, Layla thought thinking back to the incident.
"Sinking Quicksand," Gaby yelled hoping it would do something. The Morphix Wave was absorbed into Gaby's attack, but it didn't stop there. Some of the Morphix slowed down and coated Gaby's wings. What is this? It isn't hurting me! Gaby noticed that it was actually giving her more energy! "Magic Winx, Morphed," Gaby shouted. A light enveloped her and disappeared. Her outfit gained some sparkles and more accessories. The morphix around her wings glowed and dissolved after her wings grew to Enchantix size.
"What just happened?" Henry asked breaking the silence, but it was followed by more silence.
"Nice Henry, you just made things awkward." Ronald said leaning on Henry's shoulder.
"I don't know what happened either." Gaby looked at Layla's direction.
"I think you earned your next transform." Alyssa said.
"It seems like it, but it isn't like what we earned." Layla replied.
"Who CARES about what it is at a time like this?" Tori snapped. "Do any of you understand that Musa is right there and is about to fry our butts?"
"Harsh, but true," Grace added.
"That is one vicious looking fairy-person-thingy." Daniel said. "I wish this would all just end."
"If you want it to end then I'll end it." Musa said sinisterly. She was charging up a Stereo Crash.
"Not on my watch." Gaby hissed. She used an attack called Soil Substance that knocked Musa to the ground and hardened. "Okay, someone can step in about now!" Gaby shouted.
"Ice daggers" Alyssa attacked Musa by creating shards of ice and hurling them at her.
Alex took a moment to look down at Grace who was still sitting on the ground. "Do you need help Grace?" Alex asked.
"Oh yea sure," Grace replied as Alex helped her up. "Thanks Alex! I'm glad that you're loosening up!" Grace added with a smile. She then went back to a death glare and used the Molten Lava attack against Musa.
Musa was taking shot after shot, but was unable to get up. Enough of this, she thought. Musa gazed around at the targets. Musa choose Tori as her target and used a sound wave attack.
"Tori watch out!" Alex warned.
Layla realized something. Those boys, the paper boys, and Alex, they wouldn't have been involved unless they were important. Layla noted. Also, the new club only has five members: Tori, Candace, Grace, Alyssa, and Gaby. They are missing someone, and I know who that is. She remained where she was and watched it all go down.
"Someone help me!" Tori shouted completely frozen in fear and unaware of the attack.
"Protection thicket," Candace said. She hopped in front of Tori and summoned a protective thorn bush.
I need to help them! I can't stand here being useless. Alex couldn't stand it. Maybe it's because I'm a perfectionist. A dome of light surrounded Alex, and time seemed to slow down when all heads turned toward her.
"I knew it." Layla muttered under her breath as a smile spread across her face.
"No, I will not let this pass." Musa was very angry. "Bass Resonance," She attacked Candace and Tori with a powerful spell. Tori's eyes widened and Candace braced herself for the impact.
"Volcanic Eruption," Grace shouted. She stretched out a lava beam that absorbed Musa's attack. The lava filtered the Bass Resonance and Grace's wings evolved into Enchantix size. "Magic Winx, Morphed," Grace said as her outfit gained accessories.
The attention was turned back to Alex as she announced, "Alex, magic winx!" She transformed into magic winx. Her outfit was a gray strapless dress with an orange belt, orange shoes, and gray elbow gloves. She gained an orange and gray striped headband and her hair got more of a navy color.
The attention shifted once again when Musa broke out of the Soil Substance. "You fools! I cannot stand this insanity!" Musa screamed.
"She says we're insanity?" Ronald chuckled. "She should take a look at herself, and think twice about calling us insane."
"Shut up Ronald." Henry snapped. "They need help! That is obviously one mad chick!"
"Both of you shut up!" Alyssa retorted. "Do you want your life to end?"
"We don't have time. Alex, follow my lead." Grace said.
"Got it," Alex replied.
"Fire Energy," Grace attacked.
"Breeze Dart," Alex shot a single and endless air beam that ran through and powered the Fire Energy.
"Gaby, we need to start now." Layla said. Layla attacked using a morphix beam.
"Stone Storm," Gaby attacked with stone darts.
Alyssa and Candace attacked using Water Jet and Flower Stream.
I need to evade this, Musa thought. I know just how to do so. Musa's eyes fell on Tori who had yet to attack. Musa used small sound waves to control Tori for a split second.
"Effect…" Tori started against her will. The boys saw what Tori was going to do and they took action. Ronald tackled Tori to the ground and covered her mouth. The other two expected the attack hit Musa, but it didn't.
Grace, Alyssa, and Alex were surprised at what the boys did. Gaby, Layla, and Candace realized that this was going to end badly.
Musa deflected it all and it all came rushing back toward them. "Camellia Filter," Candace screamed creating a light red screen that absorbed the attack. Candace's wings were coated with a light and grew to Enchantix size.
"Musa is getting weaker" Henry whispered to Daniel.
"But, from the look on her face it looks as if she is planning something." Daniel noted.
"I wonder if the girls figured that out yet." Henry said.
"It's not likely." Daniel replied. "Hey Ronald, You okay there?" Daniel shouted.
"I could never be better." Ronald replied with a grin.
Tori slapped him and got up. "I think I can control myself now." She said as Alex high fived her.
"You should be more careful around girls like her." Candace warned Ronald.
"What happened to the seriousness?" Daniel wondered.
"Agreed, what happened to our focus?" Alyssa added.
Musa transported out of the space.
"Great, now what do we do?" Gaby asked. "Wait for superheroes?" She added sarcastically.
