"For generations, it is said that only one individual of the magical dimension is to be chosen to be bestowed with these powers. These powers are to be used for the greater good, to protect all of the civilization of the many worlds throughout the many dimensions that exist. These powers will be granted to the next heir of the bloodline, who shall continue its power on with its own heirs.
Through generations and generations, the female chosen to possess these powers shall be known as the guardian fairy of the magical dimension. Fate determines who in the bloodline is to receive it next, for fate knows that the rising fairy from birth will protect it until their very end.
These powers - the heart of ice and dragon flame - both possess the abilities with two crucial elements of the universe. Fire, to fight against enemies in the offense for those who need saving - and ice, to defend others in ones need to recover from hurt or for protection.
When chosen as the guardian fairy, this guardian shall lead on a team of selected fairies to serve as her fellow guardians. To not only serve and protect our universe, but for these guardians of light to protect the powers the princess of the magical dimension possesses."
A moonshine glistened from the window glass; revealing the dark blue orbs of the young woman who sat on the edge of a large bed. Under the covers had been two smaller children; a young boy with messy blonde locks of hair and a young girl, whose hair was braided down her back. Both children looked intent and had their full attention to the older woman who sat there; her hand resting on which looked to be a swollen bump on her abdomen.
"Wow…" The younger girl had spoken; hearts drawn to her eyes in amazement of the story that was told. The older woman chuckled; standing up from her spot on the bed before brushing back her long blonde locks of hair to her back, "…So that's why the Company of Light is always here, mama? 'Cause you have the dragon flame and heart of ice?"
There was a smile that formed along the woman's lips hearing the question that came from her daughter. Ah… It wasn't a complicated question, but the answer was an easy one, "Yes… Technically," She explained while one hand had rested against her back to support the weight on her front, "Even though I'm the guardian fairy of the dragon flame and heart of ice, I'm still your mama, and mama says it's time to go to bed,"
Without allowing another second to pass, what sounded like whines came from the children who laid in the bed as the woman approached them. She had tucked in the sheets firstly to make sure the children were comfortable, before soon holding out her hand toward the direction of the window. There, a glow came from her palm - resulting in the curtains being pulled shut to prevent the early sunrise in the morning.
"But mama… You said that you'd have to pass on your powers one day." The younger boy spoke; his eyes full of worry almost as if he was worried for the woman. This caught the woman's attention as she tilted her head, indeed confused on why the child looked so worried, "Does…does that mean if you die, the powers is just going to be passed on like that?"
The expression of confusion that was once on the woman's face had become horrified and soon she had waved her hands back and forth, almost in a panic, "Oh my sweet baby boy, no no… That's not how it works. Yes, even though we're magical beings, we born, live and die just like any other person. But one could say passing on the torch isn't like that," She explained, sitting herself down once more on the edge of the bed, "I get to choose when to pass on that torch. I could do it when I decide to retire, or when I'm in a critical need that… I have to give up my powers in order to make sure it stays safe. I have to be ready for that day."
The passing of the torch as part of each generation of her family. The powers - the heart of ice and dragon flame - were considered the powers that brought life to the magical universe. With that torch-passing on, it could be at any time. The woman smiled reassuringly now and reached over to cup the cheek of the younger boy.
"…Are you ready though, mama?" The younger girl interrupted now with another question, which caught the older woman off guard.
But then, she smiled again. The simple answer to that question… Was no. No, she wasn't ready for it at all. The day she would have to pass on the torch to one of her children to serve as guardian fairy of the dragon flame and heart of ice. Many enemies desired her power… Would do anything to have possession of it in order to take over the magical dimension.
And she swore her life when she got that torch, no one would ever get it.
"I don't know." The woman responded after a moment; caressing the skin of her son's cheek before lowering it to bring her attention to her daughter, "But fate does. Fate is… A mysterious power that knows what's coming next before we even do… That includes who will be getting these powers next. It'll either be you, Yekaterina…" She smiled at her daughter before looking over at her son, "You, Ivan…"
"…or the baby."
It was there that her hand had been brought over to the swollen bump on her abdomen once more. There, her fingers gently caressed the hardened bump. Pregnancy was indeed a beautiful thing. All she knew was that while this baby was her last that she and her husband planned to have, either one of her children would take ownership of her powers. Which was why she had to train and protect them for as long as she could before fate decided who would be the one to take ownership of it.
The woman stood up now once more from the bed and snapped her fingers. From there, all lights with a spark of magic had shut off, leaving only a night light on for the two children who were about to go to sleep. Kisses were exchanged by the woman to each child, followed by their usual 'goodnights' to each other, before she made her way to the door. Just before she exited, she could hear a small giggle come from Yekaterina:
"I can't wait for the baby to be born, mama."
Hearing these words brought a warm feeling to the woman's heart as she stood there, that the smile that was already present on her face had only grown more and more. The door was opened and she had already stepped out, though just before closing it, she had stuck her head into the room and smiled at her children.
"…Me to Katya, me too."
The door was left at a crack before she had officially turned around and made her depart from the bedroom. As she walked towards her own room, surrounding guards in the hallway bowed to the woman out of respect as she smiled and gave them nods to acknowledge their presence before she too, went to her own chambers for that night.
Just as fate was powerful, it was that same, summer evening that came to the labor for a new child. A new child that she the queen, hadn't expected to be giving birth that evening with her husband, the King, right at her side. But it was at this point that she had begun to expect the unexpected. For her labor pains to begin after putting her two children to bed for the night, only for three hours into her sleep for her water to break and leading to giving birth.
But it was all worth it in the end when she had welcomed a new baby girl to her and her husband's small family.
It was also the same day that the magical dimension had welcomed a new princess to their world.
It was a joyous occasion in the Kingdom when it was announced that the very next morning the royal family welcoming a new daughter. A new daughter that was presented to the entire magical dimension just a few days later, where the King and Queen stood outside their balcony with their two children present. In the King's hand held a microphone as he looked towards the audience of his people, chanting in celebratory measures of the newest princess.
The King and Queen were overjoyed welcoming their new child to the world. A baby girl with violet-blue orbs, pale skin, and light blonde hair; she was the right mixture of the Queen and King just as with all their children. Little Yekaterina, starting at the age of eight, while there was little Ivan who was four…
…Then little baby Natasha, who was the baby out of the three.
It was one of the best months to come for the Kingdom. A grand ball was held by the royal family as celebratory to welcome the new child. The day of the arrival, the two eldest children were running around the palace in excitement; welcoming the guests to the biggest event to ever take place in their Kingdom.
Dancing, beautiful music, and gifts were given by all these magical beings for the newest princess. Fairies or even wizards were welcomed to the event, where all of them gave their respects to the Queen and King. The children danced around with guests as well. Any person who was to walk into that ball could feel the powerful, positive energy coming from the aroma and feeling inside.
Until three guests, in particular, decided to make an unwelcome appearance.
It was no secret that for the fairy, they were in a weak state for days after giving birth after using their power and energy to protect the child in their womb. To see these enemies make an appearance; specifically, after the queen for her power resulted in destruction ensuing in the palace.
It had gotten to a point where the Queen didn't know what to do. Her husband fought along with the Company of Light; the warriors to protect the powers of the heart of ice and dragon flame… But in her heart, the Queen knew what this meant.
This was how dangerous fate could be.
With a chance to run with her children, she felt tears run down her cheeks hearing the loud, crying wails from the infant in her arms and the panicked crying that came from her children. She had to go and fight, but in her heart, she knew it was time.
Tears were stricken in her eyes as she had hidden in a corner with her children before she held a hand over the crying child in her arms, and spoke:
"I, Guardian Fairy of the Dragon Flame and Heart of Ice, Alyona Braginskaya…
…Give you everything."
A bright glow of power came from the palms of her hands. She could feel herself shaking violently; tears continuing to stream down her cheeks as the children who ran with her had witnessed the scene of a bright, glowing power slowly grow from their mother's chest. That power in the form of an orb soon traveled towards the infant who had been crying. This light slowly lowered into the infant's chest, where soon, powerful energy came from the newborn.
The Queen looked up at her children who were horrified at what had just happened. There was no time to waste. Instead, she had swaddled the newborn in her arms with the blanket that had been carrying her, giving her to Yekaterina and looking at her daughter straight in the eyes to make sure she was paying attention.
"Mama-!"
"Yekaterina, listen to me." The Queen's voice was strict; showing the child that there was no time to waste, "You remember how I taught you about portals, yes?" She began, which immediately a quick nod came from the tear-stricken girl, "You are to send Natasha to another dimension… A dimension with a world called Earth. There, no one will find her. The dragon flame and heart of ice will protect her and make sure no one of darkness here will find her. Do you understand me?"
"B-But mama-" Another cry came from the girl, almost as if she were afraid of doing anything wrong, "Y-You gave u-up your powers-"
"To keep her safe. Yekaterina, no one can know that she has the power. I need you to do this for me," The older woman began once more, "You are to send Natasha to Earth, and then you are to go outside with Vanya where Radella will escort you both to the capitol with the rest of the Company of Light. Use your powers. Do everything you can to protect your brother until I can come to get you." With this said, she had reached to her neck and removed what looked like a necklace. There, she had closed her eyes; using the last of the energy she had from her powers to split the necklace into three pieces. One-piece around Yekaterina's neck, one around Ivan's neck, and one securely in Natasha's blanket.
A tight embrace was given by the older woman as she stood there; her cheeks wet with tears at the thought of having to leave her children for now, "I love you three… So much, more than anything in my heart. You will be okay because I will protect you. I promise." She looked at the two children, then at the infant who had been crying in her older daughter's arms before leaning in to place a kiss against each of their foreheads. She pulled back, "Now go. Quickly."
One last exchange of eye contact was made by the children and their mother, before soon, Yekaterina had ran with the infant in her arms and one hand holding onto her brother's to get the task done.
Loud explosions could be heard from behind the Queen after she had seen her children run. And then she felt it. The dark presence, lingering behind her from the enemy that was after her. She turned around; revealing the tears on her face before she had held her hands up into the air and a bright glow of power filled the hallway:
"You shall not get the power of the dragon flame and heart of ice!"
Hello! Thank you for reading the prologue of "The Secret of a Lost Fairy." This was something that I've been wanting to do for years. One of my favorite things is combing plots from either shows or books into the world of Hetalia (such as how people do, Pottertalia/Hetalia x Harry Potter - that sort of ordeal), so I wondered what would that world look like with the story of "Winx Club." Of course, the story will be similar to what is shown on the show, but there will be some major differences when it comes to characters (mainly based on personalities, other plotline changes that I think would take place with these Hetalia characters).
This will be shown in later chapters as the story progresses. If you were someone who watched Winx Club, while this series is HEAVILY based on it, the later chapters do show a lot of differences in plot - starting off with this prologue as an introduction.
This is, of course, an alternative reality/domestic AU of the story. There are some things that are VERY different from the plot of Winx Club (i.e., Natalya, who will serve as our protagonist will have two powers and not just one). There are also original characters (OCs) being used for purposes of plots. (I.e., in the original Winx Club there are witches. While the witches come later, they are all OC based in this version).
My goal is to at least get one chapter up every Sunday morning, or maybe even earlier if I finish it. With the posting of this prologue, this means that chapter one of the series will be released on April 4th, 2020.
AGAIN - this is all a work of FICTION. If you do not like the story, you do not have to read. This is JUST for fun, and I have NO ownership of the characters or plot of Hetalia/Winx Club. All characters and the story (despite the changes that I am making to the story), belong to their respected owners.
This is rated M for mature audiences due to mature content that is to come later in the story (if you're a huge AmeBel fan, this is for you haha).
With that being said, thank you for checking out this work, and I look forward to sharing with you more! :)
