A Few Notes

Taiki- Stella's character comes from a show on the Fox Box called the Winx Club.

Cosmos270- Sorry, but I needed to research their attacks. It seems no one is really up at 7 am on Saturday, so I really didn't digest any of their attacks and couldn't find many on the information sites, so I am just going to wing it.

Shadow Nightress- Thank you, a picture is worth a thousand words, but without the picture you have to find the right thousand words to describe what you see. Yes the Riven/Darcy thing, well they officially broke up on the episode of The Army of Decay. Darcy nearly vanquished Riven from the surface of Alfea with a powerful spell, but then they cut away from the witches to the war against good vs evil in the episode.

Liz- Yes Cosmos is, but from what I understand of the mountains of information from the anime, the manga, and random sites, Cosmos is the unity of the solar star seeds. Right now a bit of Haruka is fleshing through in Cosmos to protect. Hmm, fairy, well just going to have to wait until I answer that. As for power from the sun, as redundant as it has become over time, she will inherit some control from the solar star. I think so, it really depends on how the voting goes, if the coupling will be the same.

Fire hedgehog- Sorry about the confusion, yes they are separate entities as far as personalities and action go, because it is not quite time for Usagi to merge with her ultimate form. That will explained a little more in depth later, but Usagi has always had the senshi to fall back on, I am still giving her the support she needs but reducing a bit by making it Cosmos, a form of herself.

Taeniaea- Thank you, how do you pronounce your name?

I do not own any part of the series of within are there in mentioned.

Usagi eyes widened at the change her sister underwent pixie wings erupted from her back, enhancing the image of a determine warrior of peace. She watched as each fairy sported their own pair of wings except for Techna who had a digital glider attached to her back. Usagi's hand in an act of familiarity brushed her transformation locket. Balefully she glanced at the locket and the fight which was building with intensity. Should she impose, should she transform, these questions ran through her head as she studied the enemies.

Three floating silhouettes descended to touch base on the stable ground. Their hair whipped eerily in the stagnant air, which pulsed angrily with the hidden temptations of evil. Each one their own determine powerful opponent, but work together in a trio. They also seemed to have the appearance of age and experience over the fairies. Their cackling brought images of Esmeralda of the nega moon, and the piteous image of her own battles.

Serena stood quietly examining the three closer. The more prominent one, which was deemed to be the leader, was decked out in varying shades of royal blue. She stood tall, her frosted icicle colored hair pulled into a high and tight ponytail, that sat erected in a tall, but flat point. Her eyes were a cold blue and shadow with eye tones of navy. She wore a slitted long dress and pointed high heels that made dents in the very ground she stood upon. Accessories include elbow length cut off navy blue gloves, and a striking white I sat in middle of her outfit. Serena heard a angry growl and switched her glance to the group of fairies. Bloom was clenching her hand and starring furiously at the blue one.

"Icy." came the growled acknowledgment from the red headed fairy. Her whole countenance was tight and her body coiled slightly. Serena understood the fairy's stance as one of begrudging cycle of familiarity. Seeing this Serena backed down her worry, this was not her fight they knew their own battle. Taking a deep breath still alert she studied the two other fem fatales.

The second one that caught her eye, had a thundering look smothering her eyes. Her hair was situated in a form that reminded Serena of a storm cloud. A white lining ran the tip of the form and sprinkled into deep tones of violet. Her eyeshadow was a deep purple only a shade lighter then her eyes. She wore a deep fuchsia two piece suit, in the middle of the dagger spiked shirt was a white S, she also wore deep fuchsia elbow length cut off gloves and pointed fuchsia spiked boots. A second growl caught her attention as she flipped a looked back to the fairies. This time it was Musa who cared not for the one that stood in front of her. "Stormy." She gritted out, her teeth clenched. Serena smirked in irony, how appropriate she thought glancing at the one that screamed a thunderstorm brewing.

The third stepped forward her forest green hair hung long to her waist and spike at the ends. She had two lighter green strands framing her face. Deep purple eyes and green eye shadow, she wore a purple long shirt with a white D imprinted on it, she also wore a long purple skirt and boots. She had elbow length purple cut off gloves. She cackled at the rebellious fairies. "Why don't you make this easy on you fairies and hand over the Dragon-Fire to me." She stated pompously at them taking a step toward the Winx five.

"Not a chance Darcy, we would never let you have Bloom's power." Stella said taking a step forward her Solar staff held imperiously. The staff itself was a threatening length taller then its wielder, and solid gold in weight and color. In form a circle at the top and a sharp point sat upon the circle's circumference pointing high to the sun. Serena gaped at her sister amazed at the transformation from the shopping loving teen to the sightly rougher edge warrior. Perhaps if Serena thought closely of the transformation she would see the same in herself, as the resident super heroine of Japan. However, she was shook out of her musings by a muted groan. When the carriage had been tipped it had taken out Apollo and Selenity. Both which had been knocked out by the gravity force of the carriage's weight and the ground. Seeing as there was life to her parents she began creeping unnoticeably to the fallen royals or rather she would of had she not been distracted by Stella's horrified scream. "They brought a Arachnis Scarpis, we can't take on the witches and that!" Stella's statement brought Serena's heart to her throat as she turned to analyze the looming threat.

Serena called to Cosmos with her thoughts as she saw the large bulky shadow with eight spindly legs "Oh no, not a large spider." Serena whimpered to her warrior half. "I hate spiders a large one is definitely not going to change my mind." She stated to herself, before swallowing her fear and her heart. "However, by Stella's declaration, they cannot take on the trio and that." Serena mumbled before gathering some scattered courage. "Well Cosmos, it seems we might have to interfere, but first we need to lead that thing away from this fight and the roadway to the people." Serena fleeting thought before rushing at the large arachnid. "Hey, big, dumb, and ugly over here." She taunted to the spider. The spider reacting to the loud noise and the flailing human charged for Serena.

"No, Serena!" Stella's cries thundered through the budding battlefield. Serena flashed her sister a peace sign, then tapped into her Senshi abilities, morning dash and sprinted into a westward direction far away from the fairies and the witches, the lumbering behind her told her the spider was following. Seeing a few trees scattered about, she change her direction toward one of those trees and slowed her gait a bit. Hearing the large form behind her and the tree directly in front of her she used her speed and gravity to run part ways up the bark of the tree before flipping off on to the back of the arachnid. Muttering to herself about how much she despise large bugs she summoned Venus's chain and looped it around her unwilling mount. When that was done, Serena realized she hadn't thought of a follow up plan.

Perhaps she could choke it to unconscious, before eradicating with a bit of Mars's flame. It sound like a good plan, until she noticed a flaw in her plan. She did not have the required upper body and hand strength to put the large spider down. Serena gave up thinking and decided to hang on tight and wait for the spider to exhaust itself. At least I can sort of control it's trajectory of its path. Serena simpered to Cosmos, Cosmos nodded most of their magic required their hands which were needed to keep the upon the large arthropod.

Serena and her 'pet' went through a small forest before coming upon a court yard with a fountain and a group of males training with large swords. Serena could of cried with joy at the sight of armed males. "Help, please, the witches are after Stella and my friends, and sent this thing after them, please help!" Serena yelled from up top the spider. Four males stopped and whirled around at her cry. A tall lean short hair blonde male, rushed at the spider with his sword drawn. He met the spider head on and thrush the sword into the crown of the charging arachnid. The force of the spider and the male drove the sword deeply, seeing the body of the spider still moving the youth flipped out of the way. Only to have the spider crash and tumble into the beautiful fountain. With the spider dead, Serena clung shakily to the top of the spider, the Venusuvian chain disappearing with the relaxing of the battle frame mind. Serena was partly aware her hands were being gently pried from the corpse and being lifted into a pair of sturdy arms. With that she past into the realm of unconsciousness, her last thoughts straying to her sister praying to Cosmos and the Goddess Selene to protect them. Hearing her plea Cosmos projected part of her solid conscious to help the five fairies left behind, only to witness the battle being held without her. She watch to study in case she needed to step in and also to report to Serena when she wakes up what happen.

When Serena distracted the Arachnis Scarpis the Winx five whirled on the witches. Stella's face white and drawn, Bloom's eyes flashed with her dragon-fire, Musa's normally cheery face was cold, Flora's eyes sparkled with anger, and Techna was withdrawn. All of their faces screaming anger at the witches beyond what was normally shown. "You made this way to personal." Stella whispered to the witches three. Icy crowed with delight at the response of the fairies and the foolishness of the female that drew their pet away.

"Did we touch a sore spot princess." Icy sneered at Stella. Stella waved her staff in a circle pulling on her solar powers. Icy gleefully laughed at Stella's ministrations. "Tsk, tsk, evil always attacks first." Icy scornfully reminded the Winx five and threw her hand out. Icicles appearing in front of her and hurled them at the fairies. Stella flicked her wrist up bring the staff up which had a ball of golden power at the tip.

"Solar sweeper." came the responding attack, the icicles melted before they ever reached their target. Darcy was gathering a physical form of her energy from her primordial void. Seeing this Musa and Stella leapt into action. "Guiding light!" Stella called out brightening the surrounding area with a blinding light.

"Funky shield." Musa said calling her protective disco ball dome around the Winx five. Stormy was throwing attacks blindly at them hoping to get lucky through the bright light. Techna balled her fist summoning one of her attacks. A lime green triangle appeared in her hand and she reared back and pitch it.

"Digital dispatcher." Techna added and several more triangles flew from her upraise hands. Damaging the witches and the confident attitude. The witches pulled back, their breath ragged, and their stylish clothes torn with failure. Icy offered one last parting shot at the fairies.

"Freezing rain, and your friend could never survive our pet." Icy said throwing her icicle spears at the battle ready fairies. Bloom just summoned her dragon-fire and destroyed the incoming missiles. Flora, Musa, Techna, and Bloom dropped their Winx and hugged Stella.

"If she is any thing like you Stella I am sure she is fine, but right now we need to check on your parents once they are fine, they help us take down the Arachnis Scarpis." Musa said comforting her worried friend. Stella nodded and dropped her Winx, before rushing over to her parents. Apollo and Selenity rose just after the witches disappeared and together they went off in the direction of Serena's run. Techna scanning the surrounding area for any sign of Serena or the threat.

"Hey, isn't this the way to Red Fountain?" Bloom pointed out as their trek brought them to the Specialist's training school. Everyone nodded, smiling hopefully their friend made it there and the spider was erased from existence. As their path brought them to the front gates of the school they saw the body of the Arachnis Scarpis being hauled away. They let out a breath of relief, looking for Serena. Apollo seeing a familiar dark haired professor stalked to him. They traded a few words and Apollo smiled thankfully, he walked back over to the pensive group.

"Serena is fine, the Senior class was out training when she came riding unwilling in on the back of the Arachnis Scarpis, they slew it and Serena fainted from stress." Apollo said advising them of what happen. "Professor Cadatorta, says she is resting within the nursing facilities, and we can visit her." Apollo said leading the group to the resting area.

While Apollo lead the group to where Serena rested she was currently being introduce to her saviors. The tall, lean, short haired blonde male with sapphire eyes who wielded the sword that slew the spider was talking to Serena. "Hello, my name is Brandon." He said bowing at the waist as a greeting.

A dirty blonde step forward, he bowed and smiled. His kind brown eyes sparkled intelligently from behind his glasses. "My name is Timmy."

A short haired brunette with sharp amber eyes offered a sweeping bow before speaking. "My name is Prince Sky, mil'lady." he said.

The forth member radiated confidence. His maroon hair was short and spike upward with two bangs falling into his similar colored eyes. He looked over at Serena. "Riven." He stated, peering coldly at her. Serena smiled at the boys, but raised a confused eyebrow at Brandon and Prince Sky.

"You are not who you say you are." Serena said. The two boys reeled back in shock. Flabbergasted by her straight forward observation. "Royalty recognizes royalty, not to mention the sword you wield speaks of a higher position." Serena explained as she noted the shocked faces.

"How?" The brunette stutters.

"My title known here is Princess Serenity, sister to Princess Stella." Serena says, and then here eyes widen, her sister the battle. She rushed to get up. The blonde gently restrained her, Serena struggled within his grasp. "Stella, is she okay." Serena asked struggling to push pass the stronger male. Riven spoke up tired of the needless display.

"A messenger was here before you woke up, your friends and family are waiting outside the door." Riven spoke and starred at the female. Serena stopped fighting and laid back down. The blonde and brunette step forward.

"Please don't reveal our identities, it is for protection." The brunette whispered pleadingly with Serena, she nodded and the two smiled.

"I am actually Prince Sky, and he is Brandon, but we switched for security purposes." The blonde added. Serena shrugged at them, but nodded an way. "Please just address to me as Brandon and him as Prince Sky." the blonde finished.

"As you wish." Serena agreed, and smiled at all of them. Before nodding at the males to let, her family in. Serena was smothered with hugs, scolding, and questions. She looked cramped with the onslaught after just waking up from her stress induced faint. The males ushered the group out to let Serena rest a bit more. Serena's last thoughts were of the new friends she had just met.
