Chapter 6: Love Mirta
The Winx reunite with Mirta, who is busy planning a reunion peace party with Alfea and Cloud Tower. However, in this time, Musa is taken over by the Taros Brothers, Momotaros, Urataros, Kintaros and Ryuutaros, the Imagin of Kamen Rider Den-O, in order for her to gain their Raidarix. It is revealed that a new Imagin has been targeting witches from the first years of the Winx Club. In a confrontation with the Fairy Imagin and the Dark Fairy, the Winx, Woz, and assisting them, Nogami Ryoutaro, Kamen Rider Den-O, and a new mysterious girl called Destiny, Mirta discovers she unknowingly contracted with the Imagin, while Riven discovers he is the key for Musa to gain Den-O's Raidarix Powers.
The Dark Fairy watched as K-Musa and Stella swung at her. Holding up the trident of Kamen Rider Arc, she blocked the attacks before Winx Kivat flew at her.
"You won't be getting off that easy!" Winx Kivat called out, flying at the Dark Fairy several times before getting swatted away.
"Get off of me, you vermin!" the Dark Fairy spat.
K-Musa caught Winx Kivat easily as Stella flew down.
"Are you okay?" K-Musa asked.
"You were brave there," Stella said before Winx Kivat flew onto her belt again. "Thanks, Kintaros."
"Let's finish this before it escalates!" K-Musa called out. He leapt into the air and slashed down with his axe, but the Dark Fairy noticed this and flew up.
"Shocker Slash!" the Dark Fairy yelled.
"Dynamic Chop!" K-Musa called out.
Everyone watched as the two finishers collided with each other. When the dust cleared, both were sent flying away.
"Musa, no!" Riven called out, having snapped out of his trance after what Destiny told him. He ran over immediately.
"If you were acting on my demands… I command you to stop!" Mirta ordered the Fairy Imagin before slashing with her energy blade.
The Fairy Imagin chuckled and slashed back, locking with Mirta.
"I cannot… not until your wish has been fulfilled," the Fairy Imagin spat before flying back. "The witches will pay!" she declared before disappearing.
The Dark Fairy looked to see what had happened before getting kicked away by Ryoutaro.
"Looks like I need a new plan," the Dark Fairy mused before seeing Dragreder fly at her. "Later." She said before teleporting away, leaving an explosion from the Dragreder in her wake.
Bloom growled before Dragreder flew to her, turning back into the Raidarix RyukiSaber. "She got away again!" she cursed.
"Don't worry," Tecna said, showing her camera again. "Now with this attack, we know exactly what we're dealing with."
"And once that is shown to your Headmistress, she will know too." Woz pointed out.
"Still…" Aisha said, looking to Lucy approaching Mirta. "Something else is going on."
"Mm. Yes, quite," Destiny agreed. "But what?"
"Mirta… you asked that… monster… to attack the witches?" Lucy asked in shock.
"Lucy, please…" Mirta said as Lucy started to back away.
"I don't mean to intrude, but I'm curious," Ryoutaro said as he walked over. He cancelled out his Rider Form, as did K-Musa and Stella as well with their Fairy Forms. "How did this happen?"
Mirta sighed. "It was a while back, before you came back," she explained. "See, I was already planning out the party, and talking to Fairies and Witches alike about the plans. But some witches wouldn't let go of what happened to me all those years ago… when I was still bullied at Cloud Tower," she went on, looking down sadly. "I didn't… I didn't let go either. One day, I was resting after a long day of planning, and I had this dream…"
Flashback…
"Tell me… what do you wish for?"
"I wish the witches would understand how I felt… that they would pay," Mirta said as she slept on her bed, unaware of the sandy creature beside her. "They all think… they're the best… I want them… to know their sins… for them to apologize… beg for… forgiveness… pay… for what they did to me." She said, tossing and turning around.
"Make the witches pay… make them pay!"
"To me… and Lucy."
Present…
"I knew you would have potential as a witch, but witches don't use monsters to attack their own kind!" Lucy exclaimed, the Winx and Riders now finding themselves in the midst of a heated argument. "How could you do this?!"
"I thought it was a dream!" Mirta protested. "I didn't realize it would become a living nightmare!"
"Why would you say that?!" Lucy yelled.
"Lucy, please! I swear, I didn't know!" Mirta begged. "I didn't want anyone to get seriously hurt! Especially not you! You know that I–!" she yelled, but stopped before she could finish her sentence.
Lucy clenched her fist before walking away. "If you excuse me…" she said, walking past Woz and Miss Griffin. "I have students to protect."
"Mirta…" Roxy said, looking to Mirta as she shuffled her hair nervously. "Please…"
Destiny watched as well before looking to Musa, who was now taken over by Urataros again.
"My, oh my," U-Musa said. "It seems that tale has taken quite the twist, hasn't it?"
"Riven," Destiny said as Riven turned to her. "Take Musa with you. She must control the powers of Den-O."
"Um… okay," Riven said nervously, looking back at Musa. "I'll… try."
The time train, DenLiner. Will its next stop be in the past or the future?
At Alfea, Tecna was showing Headmistress Faragonda and Griselda the footage of the Dark Fairy. Mirta stood there as well, with a guilty look on her face, while Sakura put a comforting hand on her shoulder.
"As you can see, the power that the Dark Fairy holds is unlike any we've ever seen," Tecna explained. "From the Trix to Acheron, no one has been able to hold off against more than six Fairies, one by one or all at once, and still give them Hell."
"Not to mention she now has two Raidarix Powers to add to her own." Bloom pointed out.
"This is very troubling indeed," Miss Faragonda said. "I will be sure to see that Saladin sees this as well. Codatorta will need to train more of the Specialists to help combat an actual combat Fairy."
"But who is under that hood?" Griselda asked. "That's the one thing that mystifies me."
"That's the one thing we haven't been able to figure out, yet at least," Stella said. "Until we can, stopping her from getting the Raidarix Powers is our top priority."
"Understood," Headmistress Faragonda said before looking to Mirta. "Onto the matter at hand… how did your contract with the Fairy Imagin happen? What drove you to make such an action?"
"Please understand, this was probably her subconsciously holding back her emotions," Roxy defended. "And remember, when she first came here, she was still insecure."
"Wait, I never knew about this," Aisha said. "What do you mean by that?"
"Well, you see… I'm a bit… different from other Fairies…" Mirta said nervously, toying with her braid.
Roxy sighed as she looked to Mirta. "You want me to tell them, or are you gonna do it yourself?" she asked.
"Best it comes from me." Mirta said.
"What is it?" Flora asked.
Mirta sighed. "Well… I'm part of the community." She said.
"I don't see what the big deal…" Bloom started out until her eyes widened. She looked to Mirta's braid and noticed the colors. "Shades of orange and purple," she noted. "That means…"
"Yes," Mirta confirmed. "I never brought it up before… but I'm lesbian."
"Mirta, that's great," Flora said. "That makes you special."
"But not when I started out at Cloud Tower," Mirta said. "I was looked down at for my sexuality. No one wanted a gay witch, but they at least spared that detail about me from the Trix. The one of the few redeemable qualities about those who bullied me."
"Mirta came straight to me after enrolling, and having gone through that phase when I was younger, I understood," Headmistress Faragonda went on. "I promised her that she would feel welcome at Alfea. Roxy, and other Fairies, have accepted her for her attractions, and more than a few others have come out as well."
"So, who's the lucky girl you love?" Stella asked, trying to sound supportive.
"Well, I don't know if she feels the same way…" Mirta said.
"We will work on finding how that connects with the attacks later," Ryoutaro said. "We need to focus on who the Fairy Imagin will attack next."
"Miss Griffin is working on establishing a connection with the Trix," Sakura said. "Though knowing their past history, I doubt they'd even beg for forgiveness from Mirta if the Dark Fairy lets the Fairy Imagin attack them."
"Okay, harsh choice of words, but good point," Bloom said. "We need to find out how to take out the Dark Fairy. She infused the Fairy Imagin with more power, so if we take out the one who gave the power boost, we can stop her from getting any more."
"Good thinking," Woz said before his book suddenly shone. Everyone looked to him before he looked up. "Sorry about that."
"What's wrong?" Griselda asked.
"I must check up on Tokiwa Sougo on Earth," Woz explained. "Since he reset the timeline, I must ensure that he is safe, even if he doesn't become Ohma Zi-O again," he said before looking to Ryoutaro. "I trust you to take my place in helping solve this mystery." He said.
"I will." Ryoutaro replied, nodding.
Woz nodded back before he walked towards the door. A Dimension Wall opened up, and he walked right through it before it disappeared with him.
"Gonna have to ask how he does that." Bloom said.
"And what is the status of Musa?" Headmistress Faragonda asked. "Are those four Imagin still inhabiting her body?"
"Right now, Riven is helping to deal with that," Destiny replied. "If anyone can help to have them sorted out with Musa, it's him. I will be heading to Red Fountain to check on his progress right now."
"Momotaros-Tachi know what they are doing with Musa so she can get her Raidarix powers," Ryoutaro said reassuringly. "They did something similar with me back when I was starting out as Den-O," he said. "Wasn't a big fan of first. All my sides were brought out, and I learned how to embrace them," he explained. "They should help in doing the same with Musa… but they're not always that discreet."
"Then God help Riven for being the one to help Musa out," Aisha said. "Who knows which personality could have taken over by now?"
At Red Fountain, three Specialists were thrown back as Riven ducked for cover. He looked to Timmy and Nex as they backed away, dealing with Musa as she was being possessed by Kintaros now.
"Come at me!" K-Musa demanded, swinging his axe around. "If you want to call yourselves warriors, you will have to do your best against someone like me!"
"Did you ever see Musa so… aggressive?" Nex asked.
"Trust me, this is only the tough Imagin in control," Riven said. "As soon as we get her to control the other personalities that the Taros brothers are bringing out, we can have the real Musa back."
All of a sudden, a Specialist wearing a helmet in addition to their usual cape leapt into the field. K-Musa looked to the newcomer as it took out a weapon that had an axe blade as the guard and a handle on the back of the sword blade, extended from the top.
"Don…" Sky said, looking to the newcomer.
"Dosukoi!" K-Musa called out, charging at Don.
Don carefully parried off K-Musa's strike before slashing back, pushing the possessed Fairy back for once. Everyone got up and watched as Don spun around and attacked again, slashing elegantly using the sword mode. K-Musa slashed back, but struck at the ground. With some rocks in the air, he punched them at Don, but Don slashed them all before the sword was suddenly knocked out of Don's hands.
K-Musa grinned and ran at Don, slashing at the legs. Don just leapt up and caught the weapon by the handle on the sword blade before landing again, locking with K-Musa's own axe. Pushing against him, he forced the axe out of his hands before swinging at K-Musa.
k-Musa grinned and dodged out of each strike, eventually catching the blade of his weapon with two fingers only. Everyone looked on in amazement before the two stood straight, bowing to each other with respect.
"Good moves," Don said, revealing to be a female. She took off her helmet and showed a smile. "When Riven said you were different than usual… I just had to see it for myself."
"Nice work, Donna." Riven complimented.
Donna was a tan-skinned Specialist with brown hair, almost the same length as Helia's before he cut it. She had Amber eyes, fingerless gloves, and had a green scrunchy in her hair.
"What's this?" K-Musa asked. "Someone who can finally rival me?"
"Hey, I didn't know there were girl Specialists here." Musa said from inside.
"Kintaros, can I say some things to Musa, the real Musa?" Riven asked. "Fifteen minutes, that's all I want. Then the next of the Taros can take control, and I can assure you, I will help in her getting the Den-O Raidarix."
"I shall give you twenty!" Kintaros exclaimed before the yellow energy left from Musa's body.
Musa gasped as she felt her heart. "Okay, twenty minutes, and I know the first thing I'm gonna do," she said before spreading her arms out. "Freedom at last!" she yelled into the air.
"Feels good to be back, doesn't it?" Riven asked.
"For now, at least," Musa said. She looked to Donna and shook her hand again. "So, what's with you? I don't remember seeing you here before."
"Well, before I have my talk with you, Musa, let me introduce you. This is Donna, our first female Specialist," Riven explained. "When we got back from getting the Kiva Raidarix, a lot had changed, especially since Timmy showed Saladin and Codatorta what happened when we were with you. This got a lot of attention, and Donna was one of the newest students to join."
"She's the first girl to ever join the Specialist ranks," Sky went on. "We made the mistake of underestimating her when she first tried out."
"Well, I look forward to seeing you in action, especially with the new threats we're facing," Musa said. "You'll definitely make an interesting addition to the Specialists."
"Hey, Musa?" Riven asked. "There's somewhere I want to talk to you," he said, holding out his hand. "If you please…"
Musa looked to Riven and smiled as she took his hand. Together, the two walked off.
"They're a great couple." Donna said.
"That they are," Destiny said, walking over to Timmy. "He'll be perfect for helping Musa gain the Raidarix Powers of Kamen Rider Den-O."
At the cave, the Dark Fairy was looking to something in her hand. It was a special Card, one that had a black version of the Mugen Survive symbol. She narrowed her eyes at it, glowing golden, before putting it away. She quickly put her hood over her head as the Fairy Imagin approached her.
"It would seem we have been underestimating the Winx, and their allies," the Dark Fairy said. She turned and walked to the Fairy Imagin. "How much longer must you pursue this witch hunt? Surely, you are somewhere NEAR completion by now."
"The witches needed for exacting my revenge are either scattered or are in locations unknown," the Fairy Imagin explained. "That includes the Trix."
"Hmm, yes. The Trix ARE a bother. I remember their antics all too well," the Dark Fairy said, her pitch growing for a moment, almost away from the distortion. She turned back and scoffed. "Whether or not you find them, it matters not," she said before showing a special pass. "Just be sure that when you travel back in time… that THIS is ready to be used."
The Fairy Imagin looked to the pass with shock. "Only one person has that," she said. "How did you—"
"My imaginative friend… I have a VERY dark past." The Dark Fairy interrupted, fire now glowing in her hands.
At Cloud Tower, Mirta was walking around. Though the witches there were safe for the time being, they were now aware that Mirta had become the contractor for the Fairy Imagin. Everywhere she turned, some of the witches would keep their distance away from her. She hated every moment of it, not feeling wanted like those many years ago.
Soon, she came across her old room from her time at Cloud Tower. Looking around, she saw no other clothing in the closet that was once hers, or any décor at the bed she once slept in. She walked in, only to see Lucy at her own bed. She turned to her before putting down a photo of the two together back on the table.
"I see you've stayed the same," Mirta said. "Never got a new roommate."
"You know what we share," Lucy said. "Even if you left to become a Fairy, I never wanted to let go of you or what we shared. I'd be heartless otherwise."
Mirta sighed. "Look, Lucy, I'm telling you, I didn't mean for this to happen. Yes, I might have formed that contract with the Imagin, but I never meant for anyone to get hurt. You know I would never let anyone hurt you, it's why I infiltrated Cloud Tower to find and free you when Valtor took over."
"Even when you did, I still know that you have a suppressed desire for revenge," Lucy said. "That creature is after every witch from your last year here. How much longer until it comes after me?"
"You know I won't allow that!" Mirta argued. "You know that I—"
"Excuse me, ladies," a witch said. "But Miss Griffin wants to see you both. It's urgent."
Mirta and Lucy both calmed down.
"We'll be right there." Lucy said, walking ahead.
At Miss Griffin's office down below, the Winx had returned. Miss Griffin was waiting for them, with a magic portal in the middle of her office.
"You managed to reach the Trix?" Bloom asked.
"And I have made sure it is one-way only," Miss Griffin confirmed. "We won't know where they are, and they won't know where we are. We're both blind to each other."
"Good," Roxy said, crossing her arms. "Put them through."
Miss Griffin nodded. "Let's hope this works." She said before blasting the portal.
In the portal, an image of Icy appeared, followed by Darcy and Stormy, the youngest of the Trix yawning tiredly.
"It's six in the morning," Stormy complained. "Who's calling?"
"So, they're in a different time zoned place," Stella mused. "Who'da thunk it?"
"Isn't that Stella?" Darcy asked.
"Yes, it appears so," Icy said. "One-way communication spell. Impressive, Winx. But I know Miss Griffin is there. Only SHE could contact any of the students of Cloud Tower… even former ones like us."
"I know we're evil and all, but can't you give us our usual long head-start BEFORE trying to stop us?" Stormy asked. "That's our thing, isn't it?"
"We're not trying to stop you, we're trying to help you," Bloom said. "Listen, what I'm about to tell you is no joke. Someone is targeting all witches from my first year, which was also your last year, in school. They've taken down at least half of the witches who were still at Cloud Tower when you tried to take the Dragon Flame, and you could potentially be next."
"Let's go out on a limb and say you're right," Icy said. "What reason should we have for trusting you? And do NOT say Dyamond. That's hitting a low."
"You shouldn't trust them, not after what they've done… what we've done," Sakura said. "But if you have any goodness inside of you… you'll know that what we're saying is true, and you should at least be prepared."
"Well put." Bloom complimented.
"Okay, you're talking to yourself now," Darcy said. "Confusing, creepy… I can't decide which it is."
"YOU'D HAVE TO BE HERE TO BELIEVE IT." Bloom and Sakura said simultaneously.
"Okay, now I'm confused." Darcy stated.
"Creeped out is what I am right now." Stormy said.
"Just… just take the precaution," Aisha said. "And maybe you'll be safe."
Miss Griffin ended the call before looking to Lucy. "Check on my second intern at Red Fountain," she ordered. "There is a chance that she could be targeted too."
"One for a lot of interns, huh?" Stella asked.
"I like to keep my students busy," Miss Griffin said. "And Polly should be—"
"Wait, Polly?" Mirta asked. She and Lucy looked to each other with shock, but not for too long. "She hasn't been attacked yet."
"Okay, stay here," Roxy said as she and Bloom walked out. "We'll check on her in case the Fairy Imagin attacks. Right now, she could be the next target."
"Red Fountain is full of warriors," Miss Griffin said. "I am certain that they can—"
"With all due respect, Red Fountain hasn't felt the power of a Shokaijin," Sakura said, taking out her Ryuga Deck. "And they'll be powerless against the Dark Fairy too. We're the ones for the job."
"Stella, I want you to find any other witches from our first year," Bloom said, summoning her helmet. "Find them, and make sure they are safe."
"Got it." Stella replied, nodding.
"Mirta, you too," Roxy added on. "It would be better if they apologized to you formally rather than forcefully."
"Right," Mirta replied. "Good luck, all of you."
Bloom nodded before she and Sakura held out their Decks. As they did, Roxy crossed both of her arms in front of her, all getting ready for battle.
"Henshin!" Sakura called out.
"Magic Winx: Raidarix! Ryuki!" Bloom called out.
"Magic Winx: Neo Believix!" Roxy called out.
Bloom and Sakura both slid their Decks into their V-Buckles as Roxy started to glow. Rings formed around all three of them as they spread their arms out, letting them circle around them. Soon, Bloom was in her Ryuki Raidarix Form, Roxy in her Neo Believix Form, and Sakura as Kamen Rider Ryuga.
"Yosha!" Bloom chanted before she and Roxy flew off.
Sakura took a deep breath before her Ride Shooter appeared. Stepping into it, she rode off towards the window, making her way to Red Fountain through Mirror World.
"Remind me to ask for more detail on all these changes when this is all over," Miss Griffin said. "I swear, it's too much to process… even for me."
"Get in line." Mirta agreed.
"I'd better get going too," Ryoutaro said as he took out his pass. "Henshin!"
LINER FORM!
With a swipe of the pass, Ryoutaro became Kamen Rider Den-O Liner Form. The DenBird rode up to him as he leapt forward, and once he was on it, he rode off to follow the three Fairies.
At Red Fountain, Riven was walking with Musa, free of possession for the time being, through the outdoor garden.
"You know, Helia would come out here to meditate with Nabu," Riven recalled. "How I miss him so much."
"Yeah, I know," Musa said, recalling the times when Nabu was still around. "I don't think that even Aisha has completely let him go."
"It's hard, even after all these years." Riven agreed.
"But I don't think reminiscing about our dead friend is why you brought me out here," Musa said, looking to Riven. "Riven, ever since you came back, I notice you've been… calmer. Less controlling. How did you do that? Become so much better?"
Riven sighed. "When I left during the Selina Incident, I used my self-exile to reflect upon myself," he explained. "It took a long time. I was using what I learned from Nabu, from the times after I had joined the Trix… and I began to see the different sides that were making me into such a… a…" he trailed, struggling to find the right words.
"A pain in the ass?" Musa joked.
"Pretty much. Those exact words, actually," Riven replied, letting out a chuckle. "I saw myself in that way, and I hated every action I made. I spent a long time trying to improve on myself, make myself a better person," he explained. "I think I know why Destiny wanted me to be the one to help you gain the Raidarix Power of Den-O now," he mused. "It's making me see the way I used to be, and how out of control I was when I had those similar attitudes."
"How did you get through it?" Musa asked. She suddenly felt her watch vibrate and looked to it. "Three minutes left," she said. "Whatever you have to say, you'd better say it now."
"Okay," Riven said with a nod. "Musa, do what I did. Don't deny these feelings that are brought out. Admit that they are a part of you, that they make you into the person that you are today," he advised. "Aggressive like Momotaros. Flirtatious like Urataros. Strong and cocky like Kintaros. I don't know much about the fourth, but if you want to embrace these feelings, you have to accept that they are a part of you," he went on. "The more you deny it… the more those feelings will get the better of you."
Musa looked to Riven, amazed. "You know, in all my life, I never thought I would hear such words of wisdom come out," she said. "Looks like Nabu had a special effect on all of us, not just Aisha."
"It may surprise you… but those words weren't from Nabu," Riven said. "They're from my own self-discovery."
Musa smiled. "You now never cease to amaze me." She said.
All of a sudden, a scream was heard. Musa and Riven turned to see Donna and Brandon run over.
"The witch sent over to be an intern here is under attack!" Brandon exclaimed. "It's the Fairy Imagin again!"
"Oh no," Riven said. "We're on it!"
"So am I!" Musa called out, crossing her arms across her chest, unaware that Ryuutaros was about to take control. "Magic Winx–"
"He-heh yay!" Ryuutaros called out before entering Musa, now in control and with his signature purple clothing and street hat. "Magic Winx: Bloomix! Henshin!"
Landing down at Red Fountain, Roxy looked around with an irritated look on her face before Bloom and Sakura came out in their Raidarix Shooter and Ride Shooter respectively from the nearby window.
"What's wrong?" Bloom asked.
"I get the feeling that someone just added 'Henshin' to our calls again!"
"Fight now, sue later!" Sakura called as soon as the sound of glass breaking was heard.
"Come on!" Bloom called as Roxy flew after her.
Inside of Red Fountain, several Specialists were charging in and taking on the Fairy Imagin. She swung her staff at them, either locking with them briefly or swatting them away like flies. Nex ran and slammed his halberd against her, but she blasted him back.
"Polly, get to safety!" Timmy called out before he and three other Specialists used their firearms to blast the Fairy Imagin.
Polly nodded and ran off as the Fairy Imagin shrugged off the blasts sent at her. Suddenly, several purple blasts hit her, sending her back just as Bloom and Roxy entered with Sakura.
"I should have known!" Roxy exclaimed, narrowing her eyes.
Musa flew down in her Bloomix form, which was now mostly purple. Aimed out was the gun of Ryuutaros before she landed, placing it on his shoulder.
"Omae… Taosu kedo ii Yo ne?" R-Musa asked as the Fairy Imagin got back up.
"Riven, what happened?" Destiny asked, running over.
"The twenty minutes all the Taros gave were up," Riven explained. "I managed to get through to Musa a little, but I don't know if she'll actually be able to control them this time."
"Ryuutaros, I see." Bloom noted.
R-Musa laughed and spun around. "Kotae wa Kiitenai!" he called before shooting at her again, now wildly this time.
"Why, you…" the Fairy Imagin snarled before she flew around as R-Musa continued to shoot.
Bloom, Roxy and Sakura all took cover from the stray blasts while Sky and Brandon used their shields to block the others.
"This is getting out of hand!" Roxy exclaimed, taking out her Raidarix Saber. "We need to minimize the damage!"
Bloom nodded before suddenly noticing black fiery feathers dropping. "We've got more problems!" she exclaimed, looking up.
Everyone except for R-Musa looked up, seeing the Dark Fairy floating in midair.
"That fool will destroy not just the Imagin, but this whole place, and the Raidarix I seek will be lost!" the Dark Fairy snarled from above. "And I need to get to 1971 NOW!"
"What could she want from this Imagin?" Roxy asked.
"Something to do with time, I'm betting," Bloom said as Sakura nodded. "Take care of the Fairy Imagin here. I've got her!" she called before flying up.
The Dark Fairy slowly hovered towards R-Musa, but sensed an incoming attack. Calmly and quickly, she took out the Sword of Shocker and turned around, blocking a strike from Bloom with the Raidarix RyukiSaber.
"So eager to take me head-on, I see," the Dark Fairy mused as she started to push Bloom back. "Remember, now that I have my OWN Raidarix powers, we're about equal now."
"Wanna bet?!" Bloom yelled before pushing the Dark Fairy back with a kick. Spinning around, her wings started to set on fire before a fiery whip appeared from her sword. "Fire Lash!" she called out, lashing at the Dark Fairy several times.
The Dark Fairy looked to Bloom and started to swing away each fiery strike. Soon, Bloom was close enough again, and aimed the Drag Claw head at the Dark Fairy's waist. With just a narrow of her eyes, she sent forth a fire blast, one which the Dark Fairy barely managed to evade.
R-Musa grinned before flying up, now right at the Fairy Imagin. He continued to shoot at her, but she deflected each shot. However, as he fired, Roxy flew in and slashed at her from behind before Ryoutaro rode in on the DenBird. He leapt off and kicked the Fairy Imagin towards where Sakura summoned the Black Drag Saber.
SWORD VENT!
Sakura roared and slashed at the Fairy Imagin, who regained herself after the strike before R-Musa flew at her and kicked her down.
"You know, I don't like bullies that much," R-Musa said. "What will it take for you to leave these witches alone?"
"He's really that childish, huh?" Roxy asked.
"That's how he is," Ryoutaro said. "An embodiment of my childish side. But he knows when to get serious when the situation calls for it."
"It will never end… not until the last witch pays for her sins!" the Fairy Imagin roared before blasting R-Musa back, forcing Ryuutaros out.
"Okay, that didn't go as planned," Musa said, in control again as her Bloomix armor started to turn back to its usual color. "Hey, guys?" she called out. "I could really use some help here!"
"I'm coming!" Sakura called out before seeing Bloom back away from the Dark Fairy. As she staggered back, the Dark Fairy slammed her sword at her, causing sparks to fly across her chest. She slammed the Sword of Shocker onto her again, but Bloom raised the Raidarix RyukiSaber up in time. "She needs a better edge."
Sakura looked to her Deck and pulled out a Card, but it was not one that belonged to her. "She needs this… more than ever…"
Roxy gasped as the Fairy Imagin struck her, and was sent back. She got back up again and readied her Raidarix Saber until the Fairy Imagin slashed again. This time, however, Donna suddenly dashed in and held her sword axe at the ready, wielding it like a sword this time.
"Female Specialists?" Roxy asked.
"You're as surprised as the boys when I started out," Donna mused. "Donna, at your service."
"Roxy. Pleasure to meet you," Roxy said before slashing the Fairy Imagin back. As she staggered, Donna punched her in the chest, allowing for Roxy to roll onto her back and then blast her away. "Nice moves."
"Never knew a Fairy to fight until I learned about your quest for these Raidarix powers," Donna complimented in return. "You're a born warrior."
Roxy grinned playfully. "Be careful, or we'll end up in the ring together," she quipped. "And since I've been out of action for a while, I'm like a good challenge." She said before she aimed her Raidarix Saber out. As she did, Donna aimed her own weapon across her, getting down so they were in a tandem battle stance.
The Fairy Imagin growled before Musa fired a magical blast at her. She looked to her and flew at her.
"Musa!" Riven called out.
"Okay, now!" Musa called before another Imagin took her over.
Before the Fairy Imagin could land her attack, a fan appeared in Musa's hand, which she used to knock the Fairy Imagin to the side. She was now wearing white feathers, as well as having a white streak of hair and a formal dress.
"Great," Destiny said. "It's Sieg."
"Who's Sieg?" Riven asked.
"The fifth Imagin of Den-O." Destiny explained.
"Seems like a messy fight. About time for me to step in," S-Musa said before a melodic tone come from out of nowhere with an axe and a boomerang suddenly appearing in his hands. "Magic Winx: Butterflix. Henshin."
Roxy was about to speak up, but stopped herself. "Wait," she said. "She didn't struggle that time."
S-Musa spun around, gaining white feathers across her usual Butterflix form. When they finished landing on her, a set of swan wings replaced her usual wings.
"Kourin," S-Musa said, raising his hand into the air slowly. "Man wo jishite."
Bloom managed to get some space away from the Dark Fairy. As she was recovering, she noticed what was happening with Musa.
"So, another Imagin, huh?" Bloom asked.
Ryoutaro took out his DenGasher and formed his axe. "Sieg," he said, looking to S-Musa. "Ikuzo."
"Of course, my friend," Sieg said before placing both hands behind his back. "Whatever we must do to smite this unruly creature."
The Fairy Imagin growled and slashed at Ryoutaro, but he slashed him towards Sieg, who blocked her weapon with his boomerang before striking back with his axe. As he did, Ryoutaro ran in and slashed with the DenKamen Sword this time, sending her to Roxy and Sakura as the two slashed her back to them.
The Fairy Imagin looked all around her before seeing Polly again. She chuckled and let out her wings, causing an energy burst to spread and knock everyone but the Dark Fairy back.
"Whoa!" Roxy called as she was thrown back. Before she could hit the wall, Donna leapt in and grabbed her.
"You okay?" Donna asked.
"Yeah… yeah I am. Thanks," Roxy said as she felt some warmth from Donna's hands. "You can put me down now."
"Sorry," Donna said, putting Roxy down as she brandished her weapon again. "Force of habit."
"You're mine!" the Fairy Imagin yelled, sending forth a blast from her wings at Polly.
Ryoutaro ran to intercept the blast, using the DenKamen Sword to slash it apart. However, the remaining blast hit Polly, knocking her around in the air before the Fairy Imagin flew through her nonstop. Everyone gasped in horror before she fell to the ground, now bruised.
Mirta suddenly ran in with the rest of the Winx. "Leave the witches alone!" she ordered.
The Fairy Imagin looked to Roxy before turning away. "Three more witches." She said before teleporting away.
"Looks like our fight will have to continue for another time, Bloom," the Dark Fairy said. "Our work is almost complete."
Bloom panted as she watched the Dark Fairy disappear into black fiery feathers. Everyone covered their eyes as she vanished, now gone from Red Fountain.
"Polly!" Mirta yelled, running to Polly. She placed her ear to her chest and sighed with relief. "She's alive," she said. "But injured."
"We'll put her in Alfea with the rest of the injured witches," Aisha said. She turned to Bloom. "We found more of them."
"And their status?" Bloom asked.
"Injured, left for hours," Flora replied. "We got each and every one of them to Alfea to recover. I've left healing herbs for all of them."
"And by what the Imagin said, she's going after your Trix now," Ryoutaro said as he, Destiny and S-Musa came over. "And I don't think she's gonna make them beg this time."
"She's going straight for suffering," Mirta said before remembering what the Trix did to her, as well as their past chaos they caused. "Why do we even worry about them? They can handle themselves, can't they?"
"It was at least the right thing to do to give them a warning," Sakura said before walking over to Bloom, holding her hand out. "You okay?"
"Yeah, a bit banged up, but I'm fine," Bloom replied as Sakura helped her up. "Still, she's stronger now that the Dark Fairy has two Raidarix on her side."
"As you grow stronger, she does too it seems," Woz said as he walked forward. "I have returned, my saviors."
"Woz," Roxy said. "What about Sougo?"
"Currently, he, Geiz and Alpina are doing fine," Woz explained. "With time reset, they are no longer in danger. I have a Rider on standby outside the area of the school to counter any forces that may attack them."
"Good, because we need help," Ryoutaro said. "The Fairy Imagin is getting closer to achieving her goal."
"A predicament indeed," S-Musa said as he walked over, hands still behind his back. "But what to do? Raidarix is still far away."
"Not really," Musa's voice suddenly said, though only Ryoutaro and Woz could hear this. "I don't know much about you, Sieg, but I DO know you seem to be the more serene one. I know that side more than anyone."
"Wait…" Ryoutaro said. "She's… taking control now?"
"What do you mean?" Stella asked.
"She couldn't do that before," Riven realized. "That means…"
"Ah, so you have seen through us?" S-Musa asked with a grin. "How did you know?"
"Because I can see you're the type not to cause too much chaos like the other Taros," Musa said. "And… what Riven said really helped."
All of a sudden, Momotaros took over again. Everyone stood ready as Musa's eyes turned to red.
"Oh, is that so?" M-Musa asked. "Then prove it."
Everyone watched as Musa's eyes rapidly changed color. Finally, with a bright glow, five orbs flew out from her, and she stumbled forward, just as the Imagin all formed physical bodies in front of them.
"Wow, that was hard," Musa said before looking to Ryoutaro. "I guess it isn't just a split personality dilemma for you all the time, huh?" she asked.
"It took a while for me to get used to Momotaros-Tachi too," Ryoutaro said. "I see you've accomplished it quicker than I have."
"So, what does this mean for me?" Musa asked as she looked to Ryoutaro first before turning to the Taros Brothers and Sieg. "Did I pass?"
"Heh," Momotaros said with a grin. "I knew you could do it."
"Sempai, it seems she's ready." Urataros said.
"Yes," Kintaros agreed. "Now that she has embraced who she truly is."
"Yeah, I could have said that." Ryuutaros remarked.
"Your head is too high," Sieg said. "But you are correct. She has earned the power."
"Yes," Ryoutaro said before he and all the Imagin walked up to Musa. "After that test… you have gained my Raidarix Powers."
Musa smiled before six orbs from Ryoutaro, the Taros and Sieg all flew to her. She felt the power surge through her before the symbol of Kamen Rider Den-O appeared on her jacket. As it did, a pass appeared in her hand, with a buckle around her waist.
"Another Raidarix!" Musa cheered.
"Come on," Roxy said. "Let's check on the progress with the witches at Alfea."
Bloom nodded as everyone walked off. Before she could go, Sakura stopped her.
"Wait," Sakura said. "There's something you need first."
"What is it, Sakura?" Bloom asked.
Sakura reached into her Deck and pulled out a Card, one with part of the symbol of the Winx on it. "This is a special Card," she explained. "I can't give you the Raidarix power I have, but I can give you a special gift, one from Kanzaki Yui herself," she said. "Harness the Dragon Flame into this, and you shall be able to match the powers of the Dark Fairy and her new Raidarix powers."
"Wait… Shinji and Ren have these."
"These ones are from Yui," Sakura said. "She gave it to me so I can give it to you… for the Raidarix quest, and for continuing the battle so that your threats may end."
Bloom nodded as she put the Card into her own Deck. "I'll use it well." She said.
Meanwhile, the Trix were hovering around their secret location. As they were minding their own business, a loud blast went off.
"What was that?" Darcy asked before she and Icy turned to Stormy.
"First the castle, and now this?" Stormy asked. "It wasn't me!"
"Bloom warned us about someone coming after us," Icy said before seeing the door shake and rumble. "Good thing we're not—"
All of a sudden, the Fairy Imagin blasted through. The Trix gasped at the sight before she flew right at them, weapon pulled back for her vicious attack.
At Alfea, Lucy was checking on the injured witches. She saw Mirta and the others run in and straightened herself up.
"How are they?" Mirta asked.
"Recovering slowly," Lucy said, trying to avoid eye contact with Mirta by looking to another witch. "They should be back up and running soon."
"Lucy… please don't do that," Mirta said. "You know I would never want you to get hurt. You mean too much to me."
"Am I missing something here?" Musa asked. "Or is this because Mirta's, well… you know…" she said, painting a few colors with her magic.
"Not too sure myself." Bloom said.
"So, why have this Imagin target everyone else?" Lucy asked.
Before Mirta could answer, an explosion went off. Everyone ran to the window to see the magical barrier break, and the Trix crash in, now injured and bruised. Everyone gasped before the Fairy Imagin flew down, now advancing towards Lucy.
"Stop!" Mirta ordered, getting the Fairy Imagin to do just that. "She's not one of those witches. You've done enough. It's not what I wanted…" she said, looking to every injured witch, including the Trix. "But you've done what you've been told. It's over now."
The Fairy Imagin lowered her weapon and walked to Mirta. "Contract… Complete!" she exclaimed, flying at Mirta.
Everyone gasped before the Fairy Imagin split Mirta opened and jumped into her. Weakly, she fell, but Lucy caught her.
"What now?" Tecna asked.
"Use the ticket." Ryoutaro told Musa.
Musa nodded and removed the ticket from her buckle. She walked over to Mirta and hovered it over her.
The ticket now had a date and a picture of the Fairy Imagin on it, reading 2004 | 11.2.
"Wait, I know this date," Musa said. "It was right after we took back Stella's Ring when the Trix stole it."
"I stood up to the Trix, the first one to do so," Mirta explained. "I was sick of how they were talking about Fairies, about all the prejudice going against them. I wanted us to get along with them… but everyone laughed. Then they attacked me, tried to make me suffer, and no one batted an eye to help. They all laughed. I nearly died there. I wanted… to make them pay… for their sin."
"That was what it was all about," Bloom realized. "Deep down, you harbored revenge against everyone who wronged you."
"And… to Lucy," Mirta said before groaning. "We shouldn't be fighting. We should be getting along. We all are people of Magix, we… ah!" she screamed, feeling something inside of her.
"Time is changing," Ryoutaro said. "We need to get to that time and stop the Fairy Imagin before she can change history."
"Everyone, stay with Mirta and Lucy," Bloom ordered. "Musa, Ryoutaro, Woz and I will go to that time and try to stop the Fairy Imagin."
"We have our destination," Musa said before seeing a time portal open. "To the past we go."
DenLiner flew over, and Bloom, Musa, Ryoutaro and Woz all leapt off. Landing inside of DenLiner, it soon took off.
Musa walked to the front, where Owner opened the door for her. She watched as the DenBird drove on its own before its slot glowed.
"You now have the Raidarix of Kamen Rider Den-O," Owner said. "You must guide DenLiner to its destination."
"Right," Musa said with a nod. "Thank you."
Destiny smiled at Musa before feeling something inside of her. "Wait… she's gained the Raidarix…" she said. "That means… it means…"
2004.2.11…
"Why are you always plotting against them?!" Mirta in the past called out to the Trix in the cafeteria in Cloud Tower. "Fairies aren't that bad!"
Icy turned to Mirta and Lucy, unaware of the sand now spilling from her. "I'm sorry, were you actually speaking to me?"
"I only…" Mirta started before the sand started to pour even more. "I only meant to say that… maybe… we should try to… try… try…" she stuttered before letting out a yell.
Everyone gasped as the Fairy Imagin formed from the sand. She looked around and cackled before flying into the air. Looking to it with surprise, it started to fire everywhere, sending some witches flying all around. Soon, everyone started to run in fear, with the Trix backing away in terror for the first time in their lives.
"Mirta!" Lucy called out, running to Mirta as she fell to the ground, catching her in her arms. "What's happening?!"
"I… I don't know," Mirta replied. "It's not me."
The Fairy Imagin roared and continued to fire random spells. One of them headed towards Lucy, but Mirta pushed her aside and took the blast.
Back in the present, Mirta yelled in pain, starting to fade in and out like a ghost.
"What's going on?!" Lucy asked anxiously.
"Something is going on in the past!" Stella exclaimed before noticing her Ring was having the same effect. "Events are changing already."
"What does it mean?!" Lucy practically yelled.
"Something is happening to Mirta in the past," Tecna said before seeing the Trix starting to fade in and out as well, and to everyone's surprise, the injured witches and Cloud Tower itself. "Bloom and Musa need to take down that Imagin quick, or else we lose Mirta."
DenLiner rode in outside, and Bloom rode out on her Raidarix Bike, with Musa in tow. Ryoutaro rode as well, with Woz calmly walking after.
"The past shall be destroyed!" the Fairy Imagin yelled, blasting all around.
From the ceiling, the Dark Fairy watched and chuckled. "I got what I wanted," she said. "Now… what will happen next?"
Bloom rode in and let out her dragon, allowing it to attack the Fairy Imagin before it launched at the Dark Fairy. She flew out of the way before getting rammed by Musa, with Ryoutaro ramming into the Fairy Imagin afterwards.
"Woz, get every witch to safety!" Bloom called out. "We've got the gruesome twosome!"
"The Dragon Flame!" Icy exclaimed. "But… how?"
"Momotaros…" Ryoutaro said as he took out his Den-O buckle. "Let's go."
"I'm with you." Musa said before placing her own buckle over her waist. All of a sudden, a special buckle appeared over it, shaped like the symbol of the Winx.
"You're mine, Dark Fairy!" Bloom called out.
"Bring it on, Bloom!" the Dark Fairy spat.
Bloom held out her Raidarix Deck as Ryoutaro pressed the red button on his buckle. Musa readied her pass as all belts started to glow.
"Henshin!" Ryoutaro called out.
"Magic Winx: Raidarix! Ryuki!" Bloom called out, crossing her arm across her chest and placing the Deck into her V-Buckle.
"Magic Winx: Raidarix! Den-O!" Musa called out, swiping her pass over her buckle alongside Ryoutaro as Momotaros took control.
SWORD FORM!
Bloom yelled and leapt at the Dark Fairy, her dragon flying right through her. With several reflective silhouettes entering her, she soon entered her Raidarix Form and slammed the Dark Fairy to the ground.
"Musa, Fairy of Music!"
Musa swung her arms down as five orbs entered her. Flying up, the DenLiner passed through her, where it spun around and gave her armor. She gained her own version of the chest and shoulder pieces of Den-O's Sword Form before her midriff was covered by a purple flame. Spreading her arms out, she gained silver boots, one with a blue trim at the top and the other with a yellow trim. Flying forward, the wings of Kamen Rider Den-O's Wing Form appeared on her back before the symbol of Den-O flew down her face, eventually setting on the sides of her head like headphones.
Musa soon landed, eyes closed. She opened them and grinned as Ryoutaro became Kamen Rider Den-O Sword Form.
"Ore. Sanjou!" Den-O called out before looking to Musa. "Your turn now."
"Ore… Sanjou!" Musa called out, performing Momotaros's pose, causing her red outlines to glow before placing her hands to her temple. "Omae… boku ni Tsurarerete Miru?" she asked before cracking her neck. "Ore no tsuyosa ni… Omae ga naita!" she chanted before spinning around. "Omae… Taosu kedo ii Yo ne? Kotae wa Kiitenai!" she quipped before finally raising her arm into the air. "Kourin… Man wo jishite," she said as she performed Momotaros's pose again. "Rocking out, from start to climax!"
Woz, who was helping several witches get to safety, finished with the last one before opening his book. "Iwae!" he called out. "The ones to next inherit the powers of all Riders, ascending beyond time and space! The next Raidarix has been obtained from the chaotic persona, Kamen Rider Den-O, and his power goes to Musa, the Fairy of Music. Ascending from a greater power, she stands before you as Musa Den-O Raidarix Form. The limits are now infinite for this awakening, so jump in and Climax Jump she inherits the next of many Heisei Riders' powers!"
Bloom looked to Musa and smiled. "You did it!" she cheered before turning back to the Dark Fairy, who kicked her away.
"You can't beat me, Bloom," the Dark Fairy said, wielding both her Sword of Shocker and the Arc Trident, which suddenly was replaced with the GaoGasher. "Not when I now have the next Raidarix I seek!"
(Play "A Moment Apart" by ODESZA)
Bloom got up and wiped some dirt off from her shoulder. "Maybe no one told you," she said as she took out the new Card. "But that's all bullshit to me now." She remarked before magic energy flew around her.
"A Survive Card!" the Dark Fairy exclaimed.
Magic and fire started to surround Bloom as she held her Card out. Woz and the Trix looked to her before she held out the Drag Visor, letting it turn into the Dragvisor Zwei. The only difference was that there was a golden handle on the bottom.
"Magic Winx: Raidarix! Ryuki Survive!" Bloom called out, placing the Survive Magix Card into the mouth of the Dragvisor Zwei before closing it.
SURVIVE!
Bloom flew up and let the flames crawl on her. Soon, over her chest appeared a new armor, with stockings appearing over her legs. The red on her form turned darker before she held the Dragvisor Zwei by the golden handle. As she did, a new sword, one with the symbol of Ryuki Survive appeared in her right hand, and her rings grew several spikes on the sides. Bursting forward, her Deck changed to match her new Survive Form before she landed on the ground, creating an explosion behind her, the flames making her Survive Symbol.
(End Song)
"From start to finish here… we're all at our climax!" Musa exclaimed upon seeing Bloom's new transformation.
"Just what I like to hear," Den-O said as he and Musa readied themselves. "Ikuze, Ikuze, Ikuze!"
All of a sudden, a new sword appeared before Musa. It had the blade and handle of the DenKamen Sword, but the guard was the symbol of the Winx. On it were the helmets of Den-O Sword Form, Rod Form, Axe Form, Gun Form and Wing Form.
"Raidarix DenKamen Sword!" Musa called out, grabbing the sword. "In deference to Kamen Rider Den-O… Ikuze, Ikuze, Ikuze!"
(Play Climax Jump DenLiner Version)
Musa craned her neck as she and M-Ryoutaro ran at the Fairy Imagin. Den-O slashed at her from behind, only for her to parry away his DenGasher. However, Musa flew into the air and swung the Raidarix DenKamen Sword, causing the tip to spark red and fly off. Landing, she spun around, causing the blade to hit the Fairy Imagin several times before running up to her and grabbing her. As she did, the blade flew back to her, making a large gash in the Fairy Imagin before she was thrown aside.
"Onore!" the Fairy Imagin yelled, firing more wild spells in anger.
"Turntable Snare!" Musa called out, summoning a turntable like the one on the DenKamen Sword. It spun around, catching each attack before she rammed her fist into it. The blasts fired back at the Fairy Imagin before she landed, a cord extending from her sword.
"Time to reel you in!" Musa called out, swinging the Fairy Imagin around before Kamen Rider Den-O tossed his DenGasher Sword at her.
"Nice going, Music Fairy!" Momotaros called out before catching his DenGasher again. As he did, Urataros flew to him.
"Guess two rods are better for this situation." Urataros said before entering Ryoutaro, causing the Sword Armor to fly off.
ROD FORM!
Den-O Sword Form changed into Den-O Rod Form, and now with the DenGasher in Rod Mode, Urataros slashed at the Fairy Imagin before grabbing her to prevent her from getting her weapon back.
"My turn!" Musa called out before spinning around. The blade and the handle both extended, making a rod of her own, before she started to slash fluidly at the Fairy Imagin, sending her back.
The Dark Fairy flew at Bloom, but she aimed out her new Raidarix Dragon Survivor and shot several blue fireballs at her. The Fairy Imagin deflected them all with her new GaoGasher before ramming it against her. However, Bloom raised up her newer sword, which burned once the blades made impact.
"Raidarix Survive Saber!" Bloom called out, slashing the Dark Fairy back with a fire slash.
"This makes no difference!" the Dark Fairy hissed before placing her weapons together. They turned into the Arc Trident, and she leapt at Bloom, ready to slam it into her body.
Bloom looked up and took out a Card from her Deck. Opening up the Raidarix Dragon Survivor's slot, she placed it in and closed it.
STRANGE VENT! CONFINE VENT!
Bloom swung her weapons aside before the Arc Trident suddenly shattered. Regaining her Sword of Shocker and the GaoGasher, the Dark Fairy charged again, only for Bloom to fly at her, leaving the sound of a dragon roaring in her wake. She slashed at the Dark Fairy fiercely, not giving her enough time to counter. Soon, the two locked their main swords with each other, but Bloom placed the Raidarix Dragon Survivor at the Dark Fairy's waist before kneeing it closed.
SHOOT VENT!
The Dark Fairy gasped before several blue lasers shot out from the Raidarix Dragon Survivor. As they sent her back, Bloom flew at her and slashed at her repeatedly, sending her crashing into some tables, and accidentally knocking the Trix back as they were watching from the same place.
"Time to leave, Sisters." Icy said before the Trix all flew off.
Bloom looked up to the Trix as they departed, and narrowed her eyes at them. "Hard to say it… but I forgive you now, Icy." She said.
Back with Musa, she and the Fairy Imagin both locked blades again, the Raidarix DenKamen Sword now back in its usual form. The two broke off and clashed again before Musa swung low, putting the guard on the end of the blade to make a makeshift axe. Trapping the Fairy Imagin's foot, she swung her up and rammed the axe blade into her back before kicking her into the air.
"Ryuuta Snipe!" Musa called out, placing the guard back to normal and holding her sword like a gun.
GUN FORM!
Ryuutaros took control of Ryoutaro and aimed out his own gun as well as he scanned the Den-O pass.
FULL CHARGE!
Both Musa and Den-O fired at the Fairy Imagin, whose wings were shot off, causing her to fall to the ground.
"Ryoutaro, now!" Musa called out, placing her own pass in front of her Winx Buckle.
FULL CHARGE!
"Raidarix Finish!" Musa called out, charging up her sword as her wings started to grow.
"Everyone, let's go!" Ryoutaro called out, taking out the DenKamen Sword and the K-Taros Phone.
MOMO! URA! KIN! RYU! SIEG! SUPER CLIMAX FORM!
Ryoutaro placed the K-Taros Phone onto his buckle as Momotaros, Urataros, Kintaros, Ryuutaros and Sieg all entered him. Sword Form's helmet formed on the main visor, which split apart as Axe Form's helmet appeared on the left shoulder, with Rod Form on the right. Gun Form's helmet appeared on the chest while the visor of Den-O Wing Form appeared on the back as wings.
"Ore-Tachi… Sanjou!" Momotaros called out before swinging around the DenKamen Sword. As he did, he dialed onto the K-Taros Phone.
FULL CHARGE!
"This is your end!" Bloom called out as the Dark Fairy tried to get up. Tossing away the Raidarix Dragon Survivor into the air, it disappeared in flames before she charged up her Raidarix Survive Saber. "Raidarix Finish!" she called out as the Dragreder and her own dragon flew together, forming into Dragranzer.
Kamen Rider Den-O ran at the Fairy Imagin, with Ryoutaro taking control over the Super Climax Form. As he did, Musa flew behind him, her sword all charged up and the symbol of Den-O flashing before her.
"Densha Giri!" Ryoutaro called out, slashing through the Fairy Imagin. As she staggered back, both Musa and Bloom flew in for the finish.
"Dragon Survive Slash!" Bloom yelled.
The Dark Fairy growled and charged up the Sword of Shocker. "Shocker Slash!" she called out, flying at Bloom.
"Raidarix DenRider… Climax Slash!" Musa called out, flying at the Fairy Imagin. Pressing her blade against her chest, she rode right through, followed by other versions of her with blue, yellow, purple and white hair streaks, slashing the same way. As soon as Musa landed through the symbols of Den-O, the Fairy Imagin immediately exploded.
"Nicely done." Ryoutaro complimented.
Suddenly, the flames started to grow around everyone. Both Musa and Ryoutaro flew up to see Bloom and the Dark Fairy getting closer to each other.
Bloom's Raidarix Survive Saber gained flames, which the Dragranzer flew through, before slashing at the Dark Fairy, who slashed back. Both slashes collided with their respective opponents before Bloom spun back and slashed at the head of the Dark Fairy, causing her hood to get ripped off.
Everyone looked to the Dark Fairy and gasped. Without the hood, there was now nothing left to conceal her identity.
"No…" Bloom said, shaking her head. "That's impossible…"
The Dark Fairy panted and raised her head up. Now, her identity was clear. Beneath the hood was the face of Bloom, only with yellow eyes, darker-red hair and fire-red lipstick.
"The Dark Fairy…" Ryoutaro started out. "Is another version of Bloom?"
"That face…" Bloom said. "I see it in my nightmares, back to the days of Lord Darkar. That's the face… of Dark Bloom!"
The Dark Fairy chuckled. "You think you have me all figured out, don't you?" she asked, her voice still distorted. Her eyes glowed before a bike made out of fire started to emerge. "At least now… you know my face… but not my Soul." She said before riding off.
Everyone looked to the Dark Fairy as she rode off. Before she made it through the Time Portal, she looked to a medal in her hand, one with the symbol of Shocker on it.
"Worth it." The Dark Fairy said before riding through.
"We know her face…" Woz said.
"But not her Soul?" Musa asked.
"Who are you then?" Bloom asked grimly.
All of a sudden, the remains of the Fairy Imagin started to rise up. Everyone looked in surprise before the Fairy Imagin flew again. It let out a screech before forming into a giant winged monster.
"The Fairy Imagin!" Momotaros exclaimed. "It's become a Gigandeath!"
"A what?!" Musa exclaimed.
"When an Imagin goes out of control, it turns into a monstrosity like that!" Urataros explained. "The Gigandeath!"
"How do we stop it?" Bloom asked.
"We'd need the DenLiner," Musa deducted. "But somehow… I don't think that will be enough."
"I thought you'd say that." Momotaros said as Destiny ran over.
"Musa, you can do it!" Destiny called out.
Musa turned to Destiny, feeling something familiar in her voice. Shaking it off and refocusing back on the matter at hand, she looked to Kamen Rider Den-O. "How do I stop it?" she asked once again.
"There's something we want you to have." Ryoutaro said.
Everyone watched as another Time Portal opened. From it came a train that resembled DenLiner, only with pink colors instead of red, and with fairy wings on the front, almost resembling the symbol of the Winx Club.
"Stationmaster held onto this for whoever gains the Raidarix of Kamen Rider Den-O," Owner said. "It is a special train… the WinxLiner."
"Use it well," Ryoutaro said. "It's yours now."
Musa nodded before flying into the WinxLiner. Inside, she saw her Raidarix Bike in the control room, which turned into a Winx-Themed version of DenBird.
"WinxWing…" Musa said before taking control. "Let's go, let's go, let's go!" she called out, riding at the Gigandeath Heaven.
The Gigandeath Heaven fired all around, causing everyone to scream and take cover. Mirta gasped and shielded Lucy, but both were buried under a pile of rubble.
"Lucy…" Mirta said in the present as Cloud Tower started to fade away. "Something's not right… I don't feel so good."
"No, Mirta, no…" Lucy said before she started to fade as well, much to the horror of the rest of the Winx before seeing the same thing happen with the other witches, including the Trix. "Stay with me! Don't you dare die!" she yelled, fading in and out, and causing Mirta to do so as well.
In the past, Musa rode the WinxLiner into the air and pressed a few buttons on the WinxWing. As soon as she did, several compartments opened, revealing a set of cannons shaped like boom boxes, a guitar-shaped rail-gun, and a launcher with the wings of the Winx Club Symbol as the discs.
"Get out of this time!" Musa yelled, skidding out of the control room and revving her bike. As soon as she was on top of the WinxLiner, all weapons fired on the Gigandeath, causing it to scream before flying back.
"Go on!" Bloom yelled.
"You can do it…" Destiny said.
Musa took out her Raidarix DenKamen Sword again and sped up faster towards the Gigandeath. Riding under it, she slashed at its wings, causing them to spark. She turned around and charged it up as the weapons began to load once more.
"Don't go! Stay with me!" Lucy begged as she started to fade out even more. "You never gave up, Mirta, so don't give up on me!"
"I don't… want to go…" Mirta said weakly.
"Don't you get it?!" Lucy yelled as the Winx watched. "I love you!"
"Raidarix Climax Finish!" Musa called out, causing the symbols of Den-O to appear as a path for the rails of WinxLiner to head right into the Gigandeath Heaven. "Climax Hyper Stride!" she called out, slashing right through the Gigandeath. As she did, every weapon fired at it. Soon, the Gigandeath exploded, and everything started to turn back to normal.
"Way to go, Musa!" Bloom cheered.
Musa smiled and nodded before seeing Mirta continuing to protect Lucy. She flew down and placed her helmet over her head, since she knew she would be recognized in the past.
"You okay?" Musa asked, holding her hand out to Mirta.
Mirta and Lucy looked up as the rest of the witches came over. The Trix watched as well, but kept emotionless looks on their faces.
"Yeah, we are," Mirta said as Musa helped her and Lucy up. "Thanks… do I know you?"
"Maybe," Musa said. "Look, I know what it's like to be an outcast. I was one too. I know what you were going to tell the other witches here," she said, getting Mirta to frown. "But if they can't accept what you're about to say, then they're blind. Fairies and witches can live together peacefully. It just takes one person."
All of the witches looked in surprise, as did Mirta. Musa nodded to her and stepped aside, allowing for her to walk up.
"We don't have to hate the Fairies! We can get along with them, be their friends!" Mirta announced. "Laugh if you want… but nothing will change what I believe. We witnessed Fairies giving their lives to save our school, to save us all! If that isn't the first step forward… I don't know what is. Do you doubt them after all this?"
The witches, unlike the first time, did not laugh. Instead, one of them started to applaud, before the rest of the witches did as well.
"Not bad for a good witch." Darcy admitted.
Bloom walked to Icy, using her magic to conceal her face since she knew she encountered the Trix before at this point in time.
"Listen to her," Bloom said. "I know it won't change much, but there is good in all of you. It doesn't have to be a meaningless war."
Icy narrowed her eyes. "I'll think about it," she said. "Right now… that witch right there has… spunk."
Bloom nodded before leaning into Icy's ear. Icy's eyes widened before she pulled herself away.
"Just keep it in mind." Bloom said before flying off.
Everyone continued to cheer as Musa and Bloom helped Woz get into the WinxLiner. Soon, both trains took off, now heading back to the present time.
Back in the present, Mirta stopped fading, and materialized once again. As she did, Lucy looked to her, and gave a wide smile of joy.
"She's back!" Lucy exclaimed. "They did it!"
"Lucy…" Mirta said weakly as everyone looked to her. "I'm so sorry… about everything."
"No, I'm sorry, for not ever sticking up for you all those times," Lucy said. "I won't deny it, back then, those witches deserved punishment for how they treated you, but I was worse. You're my girl."
"Oh!" Stella exclaimed in realization. "I think it's happening!"
"About time, too," Sakura said before seeing the Trix get up. "You're free to leave whenever you like. We have no quarrel with you."
"Bloom?" Icy asked.
All of a sudden, DenLiner arrived back. Bloom, Musa, Ryoutaro and Woz all ran in, causing the Trix to look back and forth.
"Okay, what's going on?" Stormy asked, looking to Darcy.
"Don't look at me." Darcy replied with a shrug.
"Just enjoy the moment." Sakura said, quieting the Trix before focusing back on Mirta and Lucy.
"I always knew you cared," Mirta said. "Plus, since I'm in your arms…"
"You're a sly one for a Fairy." Lucy said with a playful chuckle.
"And you're too kind for a witch." Mirta teased.
Musa smiled, as did Roxy while Donna walked next to her.
"Is this really the best place, though?" Donna asked. "There's still a lot we need to get done after the attacks."
"Let's show everyone tonight," Mirta suggested. "And I know the perfect way."
"Good," Destiny said before she turned around, seeing her ticket. "I'm remembered now."
"What?" Musa asked.
Owner walked over. "Destiny was never the real name of this girl," he explained. "Around the time the Raidarix powers were discovered, she came onto this train, with little memory of who she was."
"Now that my Raidarix is with you, she has recovered it," Ryoutaro added on.
Musa looked to Destiny. "I feel… like we've met," she said. "Who are you… really?"
Destiny smiled and walked up to Musa. "It might be easy for you, child, to forget," she said. "But a mother never forgets."
Musa gasped. "Mom?!" she asked, letting out a tear.
"So, I'm a mother at that time?" Matlin asked. "I always thought you would make an amazing daughter. I just never remembered who I was until you gained your Raidarix."
"I… forgot about you?" Musa asked.
"No, you didn't," Owner said. "You needed to unlock the Raidarix of Den-O, which in turn unlocked the aspects of yourself, to fully make a connection with your mother," he explained. "We have known, but she, and you, needed to find out what it took for yourself."
"And now that I have fulfilled my role…" Matlin said, looking to her ticket. "I can head home."
Musa watched as her mother walked away. Immediately, she ran up to her.
"September 9th, 1985," Musa said. "There is a virus spreading there, and you need to—"
"I know," Matlin said. "But if I change my course… where would you be?"
"Musa," Ryoutaro said. "I know what it's like, to want to try and change fate. But you have to trust me when I say it's best not to interfere with time too much."
"That's what it is for me," Matlin said. "Like the early stage I chose for myself… a destiny."
Musa nodded before hugging her young mother. "I love you." She said.
"I know, Musa," Matlin said, hugging back before the two let go. "I know."
Musa smiled and watched as Destiny boarded DenLiner with Ryoutaro and Owner. It soon took off into the Time Portal and disappeared.
Arriving on Earth in Japan, the DenLiner stopped. Ryoutaro looked out before looking to an elderly man in a black suit.
"Thank you, Ryoutaro," the man said, looking to a boy waking up in the hospital. "He finally remembers."
"I never doubted it for a minute." Ryoutaro said.
"There will always be someone for us," Matlin said. "So play that piano with him, and make sure to play from the heart… I know I will."
The Piano Man nodded and walked out. Seeing Okumura, the two smiled and hugged.
DenLiner came out of another Time Portal on the Planet of Melody. Matlin looked to Ryoutaro and smiled.
"Tell Musa I love her." Matlin said.
"I will," Ryoutaro said before the ZeroLiner and Neo DenLiner arrived. "We have to go back and see them, after all."
"Whatever life has in store for me… I'll embrace it… as my destiny." Matlin said before walking forward to her home.
Ryoutaro smiled before all three Liners went into another Time Portal to take them to the present.
Back in the present, it was night at Alfea. Witches and Fairies were talking with each other, either at the tables or at different parts of the yard.
"So what did you tell Icy?" Musa asked, now wearing a kimono, as she walked with Bloom, wearing a formal dress.
"I told her to keep Dyamond in mind, and that her sister loves her," Bloom said. "I don't know much about her full story, but that's enough to know she has good in her."
"Yeah," Musa agreed before seeing Roxy talking with Donna, as the rest of the Winx were talking with their own boyfriends. "We need to tell them about the Dark Fairy. This is major news."
"We averted one disaster," Bloom said. "I'll tell them after, when this party is over."
"Hey, there you are!" Ryoutaro exclaimed, only with Momotaros and the rest of the Imagin with him. Included were Yuuto and Deneb, as well as Kotaro and Teddy. "Glad we made it in time!"
"Sorry we couldn't make it," Yuuto apologized. "There was something going on in 1971."
"We were there, searching for the disturbance the whole time." Kotaro added on.
"It's okay," Musa said before seeing Riven at the fountain. "Excuse me for a minute." She said before running over.
The rest of the Winx noticed before Musa suddenly felt herself fly into the air. She turned into an orb and flew into Riven, causing his eyes to turn blue like her own.
"Okay, this is different," Riven said, but now with Musa's voice. She gasped before walking to Ryoutaro. "Let me guess… this is part of the Raidarix of Den-O?"
"A little something from us," Momotaros said. "Plus, you get to have some fun with it too."
"Just don't go too overboard with that strength." Kintaros said.
M-Riven chuckled before Musa flew out. She felt her head, as did Riven.
"I'm gonna have to get used to that." Musa said before Mirta and Lucy walked over, the two holding hands.
"So will I," Riven said. "Let me know when you do that again."
"Will do," Musa said before looking to Mirta and Lucy. "You two feeling comfortable?" she asked.
"We haven't told anyone yet," Mirta said before looking to the side. In her direction were a couple of carnival attractions, like a Ferris Wheel and some funhouses. "When do we actually use these?" she asked. "I literally can't wait."
"Just wait," Musa said before taking out a microphone. "In fact, we can do it now."
Woz smiled before Kotaro walked up to him. "You're doing well to guide the Winx," he said before handing something to him from his pocket. "You might not have had the chance to use this yet, but I think you've earned it."
Woz looked to what he was given, seeing it was a Miridewatch with the face of Kamen Rider New Den-O on it.
NEW DEN-O!
Woz nodded. "I shall use it well." He said.
Soon, everyone heard some speakers turn on. On the stage were the Winx in their uniforms, but to the surprise of Lucy, Mirta was there, wearing a suit of her own.
Woz felt his book glow and looked into it. Looking to Mirta, he smiled and closed it before seeing Headmistress Faragonda talking with Miss Griffin.
"I have decided to take you up on your offer," Woz said. "Of course, in order to teach your students about Raidarix… there will need to be a few things I need."
"This song shows we can all get along!" Musa called out before Mirta walked up to her. "And to show it's possible… a Fairy and a Witch will be your singers for tonight!"
Everyone cheered before Musa and Mirta stepped up front, with Bloom and the other members of the Winx starting to play their instruments. As they did, Musa and Mirta picked up for the vocals, the Winx providing backup.
(Play "Can't Help Falling In Love" by A*Teens)
I just can't help falling in love with you
Wise men say only fools rush in
But I can't help falling in love with you
Musa smiled before Mirta picked up the next verse.
Shall I say would it be a sin
If I can't help falling in love with you
Riven and Lucy both smiled before Musa and Mirta held their hands out to them respectively. Summoning another microphone, Musa handed it to Riven, who picked up the next verse.
Like a river flows to the sea
So it goes, some things are meant to be
Lucy smiled before taking another mic to sing as well.
Some things are meant to be
Soon, the four started to dance as everyone cheered for them, Musa with Riven and Mirta with Lucy.
Take my hand, take my whole life too
For I can't help falling in love with you
Mirta knelt down to Lucy, singing once again as everyone watched in amazement.
Wise men say only fools rush in
Lucy smiled and took Mirta's hand, picking up the next line.
But I, I can't, I can't help falling in love with you
Like a river flows to the sea
So it goes, some things are meant to be
Some things are meant to be
Take my hand, take my whole life too
For I can't help falling in love with you
Mirta smiled and took Lucy's hand again, pulling her to the Ferris Wheel.
Take my hand, take my whole life too
For I can't help falling in love with you
Musa and Riven looked into each other's eyes, the former using her magic to start the Ferris Wheel as soon as Mirta and Lucy got on it.
For I can't help falling in love, falling in love with you
Musa spun around and spun the Ferris Wheel slowly, with Mirta and Lucy picking up the chorus, alternating lines as they did.
Like a river flows that's the way it goes
I just can't help falling in love with you
Like a river flows that's the way it goes
I just can't help falling in love with you
Like a river flows that's the way it goes
I just can't help falling in love with you
Riven pulled Musa as he sang, and the two shared a kiss, causing the Fairies to cheer. As they did, the Ferris Wheel stopped, Mirta and Lucy now on top.
Like a river flows that's the way it goes
I just can't help falling in love with you
(End Song)
Everyone cheered before looking to Mirta and Lucy, who put their microphones down as they looked into each other's eyes. Closing them, the two leaned in, and shared a kiss. Everyone on the ground cheered for their coming out before they released from each other.
"I love you, Lucy." Mirta said.
"I love you too, Mirta." Lucy confessed.
Above in the air, the Trix watched the entire performance. Giving grins of approval, they flew off from the party just as everyone went to enjoy the peace festival for themselves, heading to different attractions.
Later, Sakura was drinking some punch at a table. She looked to the side as Roxy and Donna were together, the former wearing a backless dress and the latter with a crimson tuxedo.
"You know, your adventures are kinda exciting," Donna admitted. "You're gonna have your hands full with the Specialists on your next adventure. I'm tagging along for that."
"You're not too bad yourself," Roxy quipped. "Just try not to get hurt when we take on all those Shokaijin."
"To each her own sword." Donna said with a smirk before the two clinked their cups together and drank their punch.
Bloom smiled before walking to Sakura. "So… you thinking of attending here?" she asked before the rest of the Winx walked over with their own boyfriends.
"Yeah, it's fun here now," Sakura said. She looked to Stella. "And I'll need someone to design my new clothes."
"Attention, Winx," Woz said, opening his book. He looked to a page before several swords, with the Winx symbol on the guards, flew to Flora, Aisha, Tecna, Roxy, and even Mirta, who was sitting nearby with Lucy, before walking over. "I present to you another gift of Raidarix. These swords, the Wing Caliburs, shall help you in your quest. And even when you gain your first Raidarix, you will be free to call upon them at any time."
"I'm gonna enjoy finding my Raidarix now." Tecna said.
"Me too." Aisha said.
Woz looked to Mirta. "If you want to join us… feel free," he said, showing an illustration of her. "This book now sees you worthy of Raidarix."
Mirta looked to Lucy before the two smiled. "I'd like that."
That night, as soon as the festival was done, everyone was asleep, but Flora was having a dream.
In Flora's dreamscape, she was on a planet rich with trees and flowers.
"Wonderful, is it not?"
Flora turned to see a man with silver armor and white hair walking to her.
"Flora… I am Kazuraba Kouta… Kamen Rider Gaim. You have been chosen to inherit my Raidarix Powers."
"What do I have to do?" Flora asked.
"Find Helheim… I shall guide you."
Flora gasped and woke up. She looked to her jacket on the rack as it glowed.
"Gaim…"
To Be Continued…
Flora gets a vision for her power of Raidarix, and with Twinkly, seeks out the Planet of Helheim, with her sister, Miele, to assist her. Meanwhile, Bloom takes Sakura to meet her family on Earth and to reunite with Daphne, but the Dark Fairy targets them, using a revived enemy of Gaim to take her next Raidarix. What is her true nature, and will the help of the Kureshima Brothers be enough to stop her?
