Chapter 10: Into the Magic Dimension
Normal POV
There was a flash of light and a moment later the Red Lotus crew and the four Voortrix fairies were standing in the plaza of Magix City, making the six Red Lotus members look around curiously, knowing they were in Magix City for the very first time in their lives.
"So this is Magix, the dimension of the fairies." Ghazan said as he looked up. "Seems pretty normal to me." He commented as he took a step of the sidewalk, jumping back on as one of the floating cars almost hit him.
"Huh. The Sato mobiles here can float." He beamed as he looked after the floating car. "Imagine driving one of those in a chase." He smirked as he looked at Zaheer, who smiled back in return.
"That would be quite nice. Is it magic that makes them float?" Zaheer asked as he came to stand next to Femke and placed a hand on her shoulder.
"No, it's another form of technology in this world. Though magic is used in daily lives here." Femke said as she pointed into a clothing shop were a woman with bright green and pink hair was using her magic to hold up multiple items for sewing a dress as she helped a customer.
"Nice." Ghazan said as he looked around to see fairies, witches, specialists and creatures of all different kinds and worlds walked through the streets, living their daily lives.
"Why are we here?" Ming Hua asked as she looked around as well, impressed though she didn't show it as much.
"We're going to get you those prosthetics and I want to speak to Avalon, who works on the Alfea school for fairies, to ask him if he was the one that helped the White Lotus." Femke said as she led to a shop she had seen once while she was exploring the city, whom were selling magical prosthetics.
"You know I've wanted to see this from the moment she told us about it." Ghazan said as he looked around with a smile on his face.
"I expected it a bit more like in the fairytales my sister read to me as a kid. Shrines at every corner, spirits and dragons flying around everywhere." He said as he frowned a little, not seeing anything of the things his sister had always read him about in her fairytale books.
"Those are just stories. This is the real deal. There is magic everywhere around you. Though you might not always see it." Femke explained as she moved her arms in the air with a smile on her place.
'Magic is quite awesome. They will never hear me say it. I won't bear the end of that if I did.' Ming Hua thought as the group went into a shop now. Zaheer and the men waited outside as the women went in. A moment later Ming came out with her new metal arms and legs.
"Looks great, Ming." Ghazan said.
"Let's go see Professor Avalon now. He should be at the Alfea." Femke said.
"Are we going with one those floating…?" Ghazan started to ask, but stopped as something flew into his face with great speed, making him almost lose balance.
"What the spirits was that?" Ghazan murmured as he pulled the thing from his face, that shook its head and looked at him with stars in his eyes.
"My head." Floxy the elf said with a dizzy look as he shook his head firmly, then looked around, smiling when his eyes fell on Femke.
"You're back!" He beamed as he hugged Femke, who beamed back at him as she hugged when she saw who it was that had bumped into Ghazan. Her bound elf; Floxy.
Femke's POV
"Floxy! I'm so glad to see you again, how have you been?" I asked happily, smirking a little on the inside as I saw the surprised looks on the faces of my friends, whom had never seen a pixie or an elf before. 'Nor a fairy until they met me.' I thought as I gave floxy a gentle hug, careful not to squeeze him by accident.
"Things went on, can't say it was all good but I got my magic pop if you want to know." Floxy smirked as he showed me purple and green bal with the biggest smirk on his face I had ever seen from my bounded elf.
"Congratulations, since when are you a full Pixie who can earn his magic pop?" I asked him with a teasing smirk, remembering only full Pixies who had found their hidden talent and used it for something good earned their magic pops.
"Weird, right? Who knew my jokes would save the day?" Floxy smiled as he rubbed over the back of his neck with a smirk on his face.
"Not me. I always thought them to be rather annoying." I teased him as I ruffled the elf's hair.
"Femke?" Zaheer coughed as he looked at the small elf with a raised eyebrow, which made me realize I had been so busy with Floxy that I forgot my friends had never seen elfs, pixies and gnomes before. They probably assumed they were spirits.
"How silly of me. Everybody, this is my bound elf; Floxy, also a Voortrix member. Floxy, this is the rest of the Voortrix gang." I introduced the rest of the gang, which made Floxy wave at the rest of the group with a bright smile on his face.
"Nice to meet you, Floxy" P'li smiled as she waved at Floxy, who waved back at her.
"Nice tattoo." Floxy grinned, since he had never seen a Combustion Tattoo before.
"Thanks, I guess." P'li smiled sadly as she placed a hand on her forehead.
"Incoming!" Ghazan yelled as he dodged, making that Zaheer crushed into the ground as five more of these little creatures bumped into them.
"Yucca!" I beamed when I saw my best friend from the elves village get up and look at Zaheer with a dazed look.
"Talk about an effective crushdown." She mumbled before she turned to me, her eyes beaming as she went to hug me.
"Femke! Where have you been?" She asked, sounding slightly mad at me for not visiting.
"I was in lockup in the Avatar dimension for many reasons. I'll tell about it later. How have you been?" I asked as I scooped up Yucca and gave her a hug as well.
"Bored. Life in the village has been boring since they sharpened the rules against the Elves again." Yuca huffed as she looked to the side angrily, I could clearly see it hurt her deep inside but she didn't want to show it because of her Elf nature.
'I wonder what happened that made the Pixies put up even more rules against the elves.' I thought as I looked at Yucca, who was looking at Zaheer with a smile on her face.
"Zedinia, it's you." She suddenly beamed as she jumped onto Zaheer's shoulder, who beamed as he catched her.
"Yunna?" Zaheer smiled as he hugged her back, making everyone except me look at them strangely.
"Zedinia? Yunna? What are those two talking about?" Ming Hua broke the silence as she looked from Zaheer and Yucca to me and Floxy.
"Zedinia is the name of Zaheer's past life and Yunna is the name of Yucca's past life. They're magically bonded. A bit like having a sister or brother." I explained as I looked at Zaheer and Yucca with a smile on my face, happy that Yucca found her bound Voortrix at long last.
"Awesome. Maxine will hate it though. Not that we see her much anymore." Yucca said with a huf.
"Why not?" I wanted to know now, as I looked at Yucca, shocked, fearing for my friend's wellbeing as she said this.
"She's married to that royal pain in the neck Prince Arsenio and lives in the Pixie neighborhood now." Yucca replied, sticking out her tongue, disgusted at the idea.
"Maxine captured the heart of a Pixie prince? What did i miss?" I asked gasping since the last time I had seen the gang they had been proud Elves and against any form of contact with the Pixies. For Maxine to be married to one now while she seemed to be very much in love with Rex before was a total shock to me.
"Well, it started out with a scam to get Arsenio's magic scepter." Yucca explained as we started to walk to the bus stop of the bus that would bring us to Alfea.
"Maxine pretended to be his new fiancëe, but we got beaten by those Pixies." Yucca said as her face dropped.
"Arsenio was heartbroken and wanted to leave Pixie Village, but Cherrie zapped his balloon. He had to stay in Pixie Village until his balloon was repaired." She was smirking as she told me about the balloon of Prince Arsenio getting zapped.
"Maxine was very confused at first but after some time she unfroze towards him and started to realize she was in love with him." Yucca finished explaining as the bus drove into the stop, and the doors open upwards to let out a stream of people.
"Floating bus. Neat." Ghazan smiled as he got in and took place while Femke payed for the trip then took a seat in the bus with P'li next to her.
P'li's POV
"Nice!" I beamed as the bus started driving, looking at the beautiful nature and all the magic beings as the bus drove quickly towards the next stop.
"Never boarded a bus before?" A young woman sitting behind us asked friendly as she looked from me to Femke with a small smile on her face, which made me blush in embarrassment. i had been so busy looking at the magic creatures and magic outside the bus that I must have looked like an overexcited child.
"This is the first time my friends came along with me to the Magic dimension." Femke said as she turned around and looked at the woman with a small smile.
"Miss Partillia, I hadn't even recognized you!" Femke beamed all of a sudden as she looked at the woman with the red hat, and the small face with a smile.
"It's good to see you again, Femke. I assume they're your Voortrix companions?" The woman asked as she looked from me to Ghazan and the others, who were smiling a little as they looked out of the window.
"Yes, they're my friends and fellow Voortrix members. Except for the older couple, they're friends of them." Femke smiled as she nodded to Xai Bau and Tziza who were bickering once again.
'Some things will never change.' I thought with a smile on my face as I placed my head against the window a little and looked outside again. The forest here was clean and beautiful and there were creatures of all kinds walking, crawling and buzzing around I had never dreamed would be real. This whole world looked like it was ripped right out of a children's fairytale book. 'Yet to be an actual part of that world is a dream come true, Mogui wouldn't believe his eyes if he saw me like this.' I thought with a smile on my face, picturing the awestruck look in my head Mogui would have on his face if he were to see me like this. Which made me laugh out loud a bit.
"Having a chuckle, Li?" Femke asked me as she smiled at me.
"Just imaging what Mogui had looked if he could see me like this." I chuckled, which made Femke chuckle as well.
"Okay, that would have been awesome but we best get out of the bus now, we're here." Femke smiled as I got up and followed her out of the bus to an enormous pink building.
"Great!" Gazan smiled as he walked next to Femke and me and looked at the big pink building were fairy students were walking around or sitting under a tree as they were looking in books, most likely containing homework.
"Seems like it's lunch break, during lunch were allowed to sit outside and make homework, Grizelda; the head of Discipline keeps an eye out and makes sure everyone gets inside again on time for the next class." Femke explained as she pointed to a very strict looking woman with blue rectangle glasses who looked at the students with narrowed eyes before she walked toward us.
"Miss Rekampmolk? What are we doing here?" She asked as she looked at Femke strictly.
"I came to see Professor Avalon and Miss Faragonda about a private matter, I will go see the Headmistress first since I think the Professor is teaching classes at the moment." Femke said calmly as she looked at miss Grizelda.
"Yes he is. I'll bring you to the office of the headmistress" She said before she walked out before us into the school and past some classrooms where some teenagers were sitting behind benches, calmly repeating a spell after their teacher (A small guy with a large green hat that had to be a Spirit of some sort.) after which the teen's heads turned into pumpkins, which made me widen my eyes.
"Can you teach that to us too?" Ghazan asked Femke as he came to stand next to me and looked at the pumpkins with a smirk on his face.
"Sure." Femke smiled as she waved at the little man and made some hand signs before we walked on. "That's one of the first things you learn, meaning to learn how to channel their powers by concentrating on them. This is the second trick I learned here, the first was to change your hair color." Femke said with a grin on her face as she made a mirror appear before his face as we sat down and waited to be let in the office.
"Conjuring up items. Cool." Ghazan said as he looked into the mirror with a smirk on his face.
"It's just a simple spell." I said as i handed it to P'li now.
"Try and focus on any hairstyle or color you want. Picture it on yourself and keep concentrating or you might blow it and then the strangest things can happen." Femke smirked as she looked over my shoulder into the mirror as well and made a funny face at the mirror, after which her nose suddenly changed in the nose of a pig.
"Nice nose." Ghazan smirked at me while I giggled and looked at the mirror and concentrated on my own hairstyle only in pink now, wanting to add to the fun by changing my hair color but for some odd reason I didn't made it and a small explosion made that my hair puffed out to all sides.
"That's what happened to me the first time as well." Femke said as she shot me a grin and she pointed to me with her thumb behind her hand with a teasing look on her face.
"Shut up!" I teased back as I gave her a playful push at which Femke acted like she toppled over and fell, looking up with a grin as Grizelda came out, sighing.
"You can go in now." She said as she pointed at the door with a strict look, making that I quickly helped Femke on her feet before we headed into the office where a kind looking lady was sitting behind a big wooden desk.
"Welcome back, Femke. I see you found your friends; the former Voortrix." The woman smiled as she gave us a friendly look.
"Thank you Miss Faragonda, I did, though a few of them had to stay behind in the Avatar world. Noatak and Tarrlok are in jail, I' m afraid." Femke said as she bowed her head in a sad way, I wrapped my arms around her for some support, something at which Femke smiled thankfully.
"That is very sad to hear. Darkar won't stay down for too long. We need the complete Voortrix clan assembled." Faragonda said as she gave Femke a worried look, who nodded in reply.
"About that. A few days ago around the afternoon the White Lotus Guards from the Avatar World came to arrest Zaheer, who is wanted as well. We were on Earth were we thought to be safe but they got help from someone who looked like Professor Avalon." Femke said as she looked at Faragonda with a frown on her face. Not because she was angry but because she was deep in thought.
"You think the our Avalon gave them entrance to Earth?" Miss Faragonda asked as she looked at Femke sternly.
"I just want to make absolutely sure." Femke replied as she took a seat and looked Miss Faragonda in the eyes.
"Miss Grizelda, please take over Professor Avalon's class for a moment. We need to speak to him." Miss Faragonda called to the strict looking lady, who immediately went to do as told.
Femke's POV
Not too long after Miss Grizelda had went to fetch Professor Avalon, he came in the office, making the others take fighting positions. This seemed to scare Avalon as he backed into the door slightly.
"Everybody, this… " I said as I nodded to the Professor who still kept his distance from my friends. "Is the real Professor Avalon, our Advanced Spells Teacher" I said as the man sat down next to me in another chair, and gave me a confused and still somewhat scared look.
"Could you… could you please ask your friends to put their arms down?" He softly requested. "I-I'm still uneasy about people wanting to attack me thanks to…" He looked away. I knew what he was talking about, though. Darkar's imprisonment of him left quite some mental scars. And if he had nothing to do with it… he didn't deserve to be treated like this. I just looked at my friends as they relaxed.
"There was an Avalon at our home. A few days ago, who made that the White Lotus almost caught us." I explained with a stern look.
"He didn't had the red stripes on his face I remember Avalon's clone having. We don't know for sure which Avalon it was that let in the White Lotus." I said, remembering the Evil Avalon had red stripes on his face.
"And you thought it was me who aided them?" Avalon asked as he looked somewhat hurt and offended.
"No…!, I wouldn't do something like that." I said, feeling a bit sorry for incriminating him. "But I thought the Winx destroyed Dark Avalon during their last fight with Darkar." I said with a puzzled look on my face.
"He was. But it is possible Darkar revived him the same way he revived himself after that battle." Avalon said as he looked down.
"Then that other Avalon must have been the one that both helped them find us and gave those guys a power upgrade which caused them to be a threat." I said as I looked at my friends worriedly. "This is bad news."
"If Darkar has tricked and is helping the White Lotus, they will be able to follow us to any dimension. We will never be truly safe." Zaheer said as he looked at his bounded elf with a sad look, who looked back at him worriedly as well.
"We have to get as far away from humanity as possible then, they might hunt us down. That way at least no other innocent people get into this mess." Femke decided as she looked at her friends with a firm firmly as they nodded in agreement.
"We will go with you!" A voice called from behind us and when I looked up I saw Arsenio and Maxine standing behind us in the room along with some other elves under whom were Rex, Narcissa, Lenny and Sapphire, who was half elf.
"Finally believing us, I see." I joked as i looked specifically at Rex who had been the cause of me leaving the Elfs neighborhood because he refused to believe he was a Voortrix.
"Everything's better than staying in Pixie Village, the rules are choking me." Rex said as a few others behind him nodded as well.
"Don't worry Femke, that's his way of saying he believes he is a Voortrix now." Yucca told me from the shoulder of her bounded fairy with a smile on her face.
"Hey, I'm Sapphire Meave, nice to meet you." The small half elf smiled as she flew up and landed on the hand of P'li, who smiled in reply.
"Nice to meet you Sapphire, I'm P'li." P'li replied, and from the looks on their faces I saw they bonded.
"Hi, I'm Crossia." A punk looking elf smiled as she popped on Ghazan's shoulder.
"Nice to meet you. I'm Ghazan. Lavabender fairy." Ghazan said as he looked at his now bounded elf with a smile on his face.
"I"m Prince Arsenio, it seems were friends for live now." Arsenio smiled as he flew up at Ming Hua, who huffed reply.
"The name's Ming Hua." Ming Hua gruffed as she smiled a little bit at Arsenio.
"That was nicest smile I've seen from her in ages, that must have been magic." Ghazan smirked, which earned him a glare.
"It's magic bounding. It's a bit like a bond between family. Though for Zaheer and me it was already a familiar sensation since we have been bound before." I explained as I gave the elf on my shoulder a small tickle, who giggled in return.
"Same went for us when we first bound." Ilena smiled as Rex, Maxine and Lenny jumped on the shoulders of their own bound Fairies and smiled at them while Narcissa and three more new elfs looked around, confused.
"The others had to stay behind." I told the three remaining elves who now looked at me and nodded as I raised my eyebrow, seeing four elves were I knew there were only three Voortrix fairies left.
"Do I don't quite understand how there can be four of you while there is only three fairies left." I said as I looked at the three new elves standing with Narcissa, who looked at me but just as they wanted to reply a portal opened near the school.
"Not again." I gasped as I gathered everyone around me and took hands while Miss Faragonda stood up from where she was standing headed toward the Portal.
"Go, we will hold them off." She told me as all the Elves got around us, knowing better than to argue with her. I said a quick 'Thank you' and before the first White Lotus members reached the school grounds we had dissapeared.

And with that I end the chapter. I hope you liked it!
A/N:
Finally! Finally! Finally! The gang went to the Magix dImension and on the advice of my beta paranoidgirl were a little in awe about all the magic they saw.
I thought it would be nice if the fairies would all meet their bounded elf or pixie now (since Voortrix can bond with either a pixie or an elf because of their Voortrix flame) and I tried my best to make the elfs sound and act like they did in the series.
My Beta also told me it would be a good idea for the gang to go and see Avalon now, and I thought this would also be a good opportunity for Ming Hua to get her metal prosthetics. She also has metal arms, keep them in mind, I am not sure when she was use them, since she's quite good with her water arms.
Well that was all for now, I hope you all enjoyed it.
