Devil inside me

Chapter 5: Captured in her eyes

Hey guys, sorry for uploading this late. I am really feeling bad about it. But every time I'll start writing something is distracting me. I'll try to be faster with the next chapter. This time it's a lot filler. But a long chapter. I hope you still like it. And I wanted to say Thank you to the great reviews. I don't get a lot of them but I really like everyone I get. Thanks guys :)

Brandon? Why is he pointing at me with his sword? Is that fear in his eyes?

I'm not doing anything, am I? What am I doing anyway? I can't move my arms, its like I am just an observer. „Brandon!" Damn he don't hear me. I can't even use my voice.

Wait... what am i doing? Was that mine? Did I just attack Brandon? No...I wasn't... that wasn't my arm, I don't have claws. But why am I feeling like my body is moving?

Stop...stop, stop, stop...

STOP !

Back at Alfea:

The six Winx Club girls were lying in some hospital beds at the m.s. In Alfea. Each connected to all sorts of machines with monitors showing temperature, heart rate, brain activity and some other things you couldn't tell what they were for.

Six guys were sitting at their beds. One of them at each bed. They were holding the hands of the girls, looking at them and sometimes talking to them, hoping they could hear them.

After another two days of waiting the six girls began to wake up. The first one to wake up was Tecna. Timmy was sitting next to her when she slowly turned her head and silently groaned. She opened her eyes a little bit and recognized the one sitting next to her.

„Timmy?..." she said with a weak voice trying to lift her head a bit.

Timmy noticed his girlfriend being awake and looked at her.

„Tecna, you're awake. Thank God! Are you ok?" Timmy asked taking Tecnas hand.

Tecna smirked sarcastically.

„Oh yes I'm fine, I'm just feeling like I was hit by a rock. Like a circuit malfunction. Where am I?"

Timmy smiled a little smile.

„If you are able to joke around it doesn't have to be that bad. Your at the m.s. In Alfea"

„Uuugh...again? It starts to become routine, doesn't it?" Tecna said closing her eyes for a moment.

„Yes it does." Timmy agreed stroking her hair.

It was a little odd. Tecna wasn't used to this kind of situation. Timmy hasn't ever been this close to her. Sure they loved each other but they haven't ever showed it this way. Timmy now was very gentle by stroking her hair. Tecna sighed. Even if she wasn't used to it she liked it. A warm and fuzzy feeling was growing in her chest.

But she needed to keep a clear head. So she opened her eyes and looked around.

"Uhm Timmy, why are we here?"

Timmy looked around at all the other girls and at the boys. Some of them recognized that Tecna was awake. They had turned around and some of them had shown a small smile, but they had instantly turned back to their girlfriends and lost their smile. They all looked very worried. It looked like they hadn't slept for the past two days. The eyes of the boys were red rimmed and bloodshot.

Timmy looked back at Tecna.

"I can't tell you..." Timmy said slowly. To slowly, because Tecna interrupted him.

" Why? Timmy please tell me!"

"Please Tecna let me finish my sentence. I can't tell you because I don't know it. I don't know what happened to you and the others I just know what I saw, but I can't explain it. None of us can." Timmy said. He looked almost helpless. In this point he was a lot like Tecna. If there was something he couldn't explain or know about, it was driving him crazy.

Tecna couldn't believe that.

"So is there anyone who could tell us what happened?" Tecna asked hoping for good news.

"Maybe..., Miss Faragonda called Miss Griffin after we brought you back to Alfea. She will visit us when all of the girls are awake."

The next three ours after Tecna woke up, the girls one by one recovered consciousness.

Next one's to wake up were Bloom and Layla. The both of them woke up at the same time , almost, an hour later. Musa and Stella followed half an hour after Bloom and Layla recovered. The last one was Flora.

All of the boys sigh with relive knowing their girlfriends were okay and were feeling relatively well, adapted to circumstances.

" And once again, welcome to the m.s. of Alfea...this is gonna be annoying." Stella said when she realized were she was. Her bad mood had come as fast as she had said that.

Some of the girls nodded in agreement but they didn't say something, they didn't know what to say.

None of them talked. Except Stellas sentence when she woke up and three short info sentences from Tecna when everyone was awake no one had said anything.

All of them were lost in their thoughts.

Bloom: Once again the medical station...hmmph...that's...humiliating..it's incredibly stupid...in all the years we were fighting against all sorts of monsters and villains we haven't ever woke up this often in here. Maybe one time a year. ( clenching teethes) Damn!... I have to find out what's going on!

Stella: These white walls are going to make me as bad as a cut snake. If I were back to one hundred percent I would start a riot. I've seen these horrible rooms with it's horrible walls for more than a month I need some color! Now! And some sun rays!...Seriously, I need to get out of here, everything's better than this...!

Musa: What are we? Monsters? Fairies? Nothing? I am Musa ,...am I? Or am I just something controlled by someone? Anyway...is my name Musa?...NO! I have to stop this! I am Musa! I am from Harmony! I am part of the Winx Club! I have to believe in myself!

Techna: Technically it is impossible for us not being ourselves anymore. It is impossible to change or manipulate someones character or memories for about more than 18 years without failing in one point or another. So we have to be who we were the last 18 years, and the reason for us getting sick and changing ourselves, wasn't there before. The only explanation is that the reason for this isn't existing for a long time now, and the only incident was at Plantea. That's all logical, nothing to be afraid of. Except maybe our changed us...

Flora: Helia...I am glad he is here. I don't wanna think of what is going to happen to us. I Just want it to stop...just...stop! Helia is helping me, isn't he? He helped me every time I needed him. He looks very tired...poor Helia.

Layla: We will make it. We just need to think positive. Miss Faragonda and Miss Griffin will find a way to help us. And the boys also will help us. We are all together. Maybe it won't be easy but everything is possible, especially with friends.

After half an hour all of them were ripped of of their thoughts because of Miss Faragonda and Miss Griffin. The headmistresses came rushing through the door of the m.s.

"Girls, you are awake. We need to talk!" Faragonda said without beating about the bush.

"Yeah that's right... We need to know some things." Bloom said turning out of the bed. She had to support herself against Skys shoulder because her legs were about to give in underneath her.

"Bloom,.. be careful" Sky said helping her to stand up. He wrapped an arm around her to hold her.

" Yes Bloom I know. Because of that, I need you to come with me. I need to show you something." Faragonda said, her voice was strange, like there was something she don't want to tell them.

The girls looked at each other for a second and then all of them turned out of their beds. The boys helped them.

"Alright, lets go. I want to know whats going on! Now!" Stella said making the first steps towards the door.

"Hell yes!" Musa said and all of the girls followed.

Faragonda led the girls to some kind of auditorium. It was huge and at the end, on the other side of the room was a huge screen. In front of that screen there was a table with a marble on it.

"What are we doing here? Watching movies?" Techna asked noticing that the marble could be used as a kind of a projector.

"Almost. We need to show you what happened before you came back to Alfea." Faragonda said walking up to the marble.

The Winx girls and the boys took place behind the marble at some seats.

Faragonda stroke the marble an with a silent tinkle the marble began to glow.

"Girls, I need to tell you one more thing before we start. What you will see now is not pleasant. You will be shocked I think." Faragonda said. She was very worried.

"We will bear it." Bloom said, the girls nodded.

Faragonda nodded and with one more movement of her hand the marble began to project a video on the screen.

The screen was parted into four parts. Every part showed a team of their last mission.

The girls were staring blankly at the screen.

The video was showing the girls crouching on the forest floor, hands clenched in pain, their faces distorted. None of them was making any noise even if it seemed like they were suffering. They started to snarl.

The specialists couldn't bear to see it one more time so they turned their heads away, but the six girls couldn't move.

Bloom was whispering a "What the hell." but she wasn't able to look away.

After the video had finished the six girls were still looking at the screen. Their minds were in a haze.

Suddenly Flora turned her had and looked at Miss Faragonda.

"What was that?" she simply asked, her voice unnaturally calm.

"That Flora was the thing that was sealed inside you. It is a monster, bloodthirsty and uncontrollable." Faragonda said studying the face of the fairy in front of her.

"Is it possible to get rid of it?" Techna said raising from her seat.

"Maybe. If you want to get rid of an seal you need to get rid of its summoner." Miss Griffin was calling in herself now.

"But we don't know who summoned it!" Bloom said turning her head towards the old witch.

"Then you have to go back to Plantea and search for some hints. It's the only chance for you!" Griffin answered.

"Great! That's like to find a needle in a haystack!" Stella muttered.

"But it is your only chance. If you aren't able to break the seal the creature inside you will rip you up. Your spirit and what was left of your personality will be captured in a small corner back in your subconscious mind. The beast will take over the control of your mind and body." Miss Griffin said with the most serious look.

" So we have no choice right?" Flora asked.

"No, not really.." the witch answered.

"Ok..."

The next day the Winx Club girls took everything they needed with them and flew off to Plantea. The Specialists were with them. The girls had tried to convince them to stay at Alfea but the boys wouldn't listen.

"Everyone or no one! We won't let you go alone!" they had said.

When they arrived at Plantea all of the girls shivered.

Now, their life is at stake.
