-Chapter 9-

"This is so much work!" Stella complained.

"Stell, you had to know being a teacher meant doing work," said Musa.

"Well, yeah, but not this kinda work!" Stella exclaimed.

"I know how you feel," said Bloom. "I never thought teaching at Alfea would involve settling disputes between my teenage daughters that have just shown up out of no where. Tia and Alaina are polar opposites, and Mckenna is in the middle of everything."

"And that whole Alice and Lauren thing," said Flora. "Can't students just be nice to each other and not start a fight in the courtyard?"

"Speaking of which, Sophie is still as snobby as ever," said Tecna. "You'd think rooming with such good influences would change that. I mean seriously, she rooms with your cousin, Bloom!"

"Spirit is not a good influence," said Bloom. "She is such a trouble maker! She got her and her roommates arrested!"

"That was Sophie's fault," said Layla.

"And don't get me started on the monster attacks," said Stella. "Two monster attacks in one week! Who do these girls think they are, us?"

"Think about it," said Tecna. "There has to be at least one group like us in every generation."

"Same goes for the witches," agreed Musa. "Those girls who broke into the school and trashed the dorm sorta resemble the Trix, don't they?"

"Don't you go comparing my daughter to the Trix!" Bloom commanded. "Alaina is just going through a rebellious phase."

"Girl, she was born that way," said Layla. "Can't be changed."

"Layla!" Flora exclaimed. "Don't talk that way! Alaina can be reached. It's just difficult for her. She has to be in league with Liza, Akiza, and Gwen just to fit in. Actually, I'd blame it all on Gwen; Liza and Akiza are quite nice when Gwen's not around. And Velocity's just on for the ride."

"Man, life is complicated," Stella sighed.

"Makes you wonder what life was like for Griselda and the other teachers while we were students," said Musa. "I'll betcha we were big pains in the butt too."

"Oh, of course you were," said Miss Farogonda as she entered the room. "But you were wonderful students none the less."

"Thanks, Miss F," said Bloom.

"I couldn't help but here your conversation," said Miss Farogonda. "Remind me what these monsters looked like."

Tecna showed a holographic image of each of the monsters who attacked Sophie, the black demonic ones. Miss Farogonda gasped and took a step back.

"But... He's been so peaceful... And... What does he want with Sophie?" Miss Farogonda stuttered nervously.

The Winx were concerned. "Miss F, take a deep breath and tell us what your talking about," said Musa.

...Meanwhile...

"So, you really got us a ride?" Gwen asked Alaina.

"Yes," Alaina replied gloomily. "She'll be here any minute."

"Who?" Liza asked.

Suddenly, a Red Fountain ship landed. The door opened and a girl with short red hair down to just under her ears and blue eyes wearing basic blue jeans, athletic shoes, and a red and white striped T-shirt stepped out.

"Girls, this is my other sister, Mckenna," Alaina introduced dully. "She's a Red Fountain student."

"Aw, Alaina, you could've given Mckenna a more energetic introduction!" said Velocity.

"It'd good to see you again, Velocity!" Mckenna said cheerfully.

"You too, Mckenna!" Velocity replied.

"Let's get moving!" Gwen interjected impatiently.

"Alright," said Mckenna. The girls filed into the ship. "Where to?"

"We're meeting someone on the cliffs at the edge of Magix," said Liza. "Do you know where that is?"

"Yeah, I know what you're talking about," said Mckenna. "Those cliffs are off-limits."

"For you Red Fountain kids, maybe, but for us, it's perfectly ok," said Gwen.

"Really?" Mckenna asked suspiciously.

"Oh, for sure!" replied Velocity.

"Ok," Mckenna said uneasily as she started up the ship and flew toward the direction of the cliffs. They soon arrived at the cliffs and Mckenna landed the ship.

"Stay here," Alaina told her sister as the other witches exited the ship.

"Whatever," Mckenna shrugged.

The witches walked for a while, searching for this Akiri fellow that they read about. After not finding anything, Gwen declared, "This is a big waste of time!"

Suddenly, large, pitch-black, muscular, demomic creatures with glowing read eyes surrounded the witches at every angle. There was no way to escape except for destroying all the monsters, and that would be very difficult. Then, a male voice boomed out, "Who dares to enter my cliffs?"
