Chapter 13: The Attack
Musa's POV:
We all headed out the way we had too, in groups of two. Which meant the hot tempered jackass was with me. How could he be so annoying and unreasonable? How do I still love him after all that has happened and after getting in fights so often? I just didn't understand it.
We haven't spoken since our peaceful trip to the mall. Note sarcasm. Peaceful was what I had wished for it to be, but the jealous idiot ruined it. It's not that I had anything against him, it just irritated me how little faith he had in me. He was being pointlessly stubborn as well, he refused to talk to me normally since our little argument. And now we were following some random guy to go meet Uhira-sama, so obviously he was acting like a giant pain is the ass.
"I told you to drop it!" I exclaim.
"I don't trust him to train you again!" He exclaimed back.
Our guide stopped walking and poof another black glad ninja stood in front of us. They spoke to each other in hushed voices. A second later the new comer disappeared. While our guide turned around to face us.
"I have some bad news." He told us calmly. He had a husky voice, not that melodic.
Wow someone broke pattern of being perfect.
"What is it?" Riven asks rudely.
I just glare at him, but he keeps calm and does not flinch. Damn, Zhalia must be one hell of a scary lady if he flinched with just one look from her, not even a glare.
"Your planet or this so called place 'Magix' place is under attack by the level six slayers you met before. They are looking for you and have noticed you're all not there. So they have started to find methods to smoke you out." He explains calmly.
"WHAT?" I yell out, even Riven seemed surprised.
"We shall all head over to Lady Van Horn's ground as she will decide what you are to do." He replies.
"We have to go and help out in magix!" I yell back.
"Follow me." He turns completely ignoring me and starts running. Quite fast I might add.
Riven follows him blindly and so do I. I could not believe that they were already attacking. We ran fast for a while, and I was getting tired so I slowed. Riven took my hand and pulled me along. I looked up to see him look ahead. Geez this was another annoying factor of his. He helps me out when I don't even ask for it but need it. How does he know? I hadn't slowed down that much.
We reached a huge stadium of sorts, and entered it from the side. It was like a tunnel that opened up to the centre of the stadium, a long tunnel with a light at the end. I saw everyone else was already here, along with Lady Aria, Zhalia, Uhira-sama, and Tsar Vladimir. We were the last to arrive.
"Musa, Riven did you hear about the attack?" Stella screams out at us.
"Don't act like an idiot Stella, obviously we heard, why else are we here?" Riven asks rudely.
"Don't be so rude to her Riven! I don't know what's wrong with you!" Brandon yelled back.
"Shut up scum's." Zhalia commanded coldly, glaring at them.
They immediately shut up. It was kind of funny to watch. I am actually quite glad that someone like her was going to train Riven. But they were more pressing matters at hand right now.
"What are we doing now?" I asked.
"We are waiting for Anna to come dear." Lady Aria tells me sweetly, just listening to her is quite calming.
I look beyond them to see the arena of the stadium because I could hear people cheering from the stadium. I saw Anna walking towards us carrying a sword over her shoulder and the sword she was carrying was huge. It was much longer than her, a foot higher than her and was broader than her by a few inches. I bet it weighed twice her weight. How was she able to carry it so easily?
"Magix is under attack!" Bloom tells her.
"She knows you idiot" Zhalia replies.
"I see everyone else is already here." Anna tells us.
"What are we going to do?" Layla asked.
"You guys aren't going to do anything. I am immediately starting your training with the right in commands of each planet so you finish quickly. They won't destroy magix till you are there; they are attacking to drag you guys out because they think you are hiding." Anna explains.
"How can you say that? We have to go and protect our home planet!" Bloom yells back.
"It would be logical if we finished our training and then we went back to magix." Tecna stated.
"Jake knows" Flora commented.
All the winx and specialists stared at her shocked, apart from Helia. He just looked at her with partial understanding and partial shock. So Flora told Helia what was wrong and what happened at least parts of it.
"I know he might have figured it out. Damn this makes it more complicated." Anna tells us.
"Let us send a group to pacify them till the winx is ready." Zhalia replied.
"It might the best plan we have right now, but you know our people can't stay there for long." Anna whispers more to herself than anyone else.
I was curious, why couldn't they stay at our planet and fight for long?
"No, we have to help our own world out!" Bloom speaks out freaking a little.
"Have you called all of them Alex?" Anna asks without even turning around.
Alex appeared from behind her along with six other people in different coloured cloaks. They were the ones on the stage who introduced the prince and princesses.
"They shall train you. Now you must go and train. The prince and princesses can't help you till the festival is over so train as fast as you can, that is if you want to help save magix. Now I am not giving you any time for you to say good bye because you have to finish training in a week." Anna explained.
"But-" Stella tried to say something while Uhira-sama clapped his hands.
I suddenly vaporised and I was barely conscience. When I re appeared I was in the forest I had trained in before. I turned around and I saw someone in a grey cloak.
Her hood was lowered, she was thin, and pale. Her black hair had grey streaks through it, braided down her back. Her eyes were huge and silver glistering with excitement. The only emotion apart from embarrassment that can be seen on her face
"I have finished my training already, I should be fighting to help magix." I yell at the shy girl.
She immediately hides behind a tree it was near.
"I-i-I h-have to t-train y-y-you ti-l-ll Mat-t-to-san c-comes-s ba-c-ck. I-I am-m s-s-sorry ab-bout tha-at." The figured murmured and stuttered.
"Are you sure you have to train me? I am done with my training so why should I do it again?" I questioned her.
"N-n-no y-your-r tra-ain-ning i-i-is n-not d-d-done y-yet-t. I-i-I sha-al-ll hel-l-lp y-you-u." She stutters back still hiding.
How was the queen of stuttering meant to help me out? She could barely face me without hiding behind the tree. I have to go fight the stupid slayers to help out my home. I might be able to fight them this time without freezing up. I want to fight them and save magix.
"D-d-defea-at m-m-me a-and yo-o-o-ou ca-a-an go-o-o to-o-o you-u-ur h-hom-me pl-an-n-net." She stuttered to me and ran.
I could not believe I have to chase her down and fight her, what was she 5? This was going to be easy. Why could she just not let me go? I could not wait to go back to magix. So I did the one thing I could do, I ran behind her.
