April 2013
On a sunny April morning, Esperanza was at the Haventown Theater, teaching the girls more about magic singing power.
"Ok, everyone! Lily and Lilith defeated the Nightdreamers last time using songs! In Agadoria, I was the greatest singer ever, so I'll be teaching you!" Esperanza pointed at Lilith. "Would you like to sing first?" She asked.
"Ok!" Lilith said. She stepped forward. "This is a song that reminds me of Dire. Recently, I played a game with Lily called Rhapsody: A Musical Adventure and this song brought tears to my eyes." Lilith started singing. It was beautiful, just like at the Christmas concert. Suddenly, her body started glowing ice blue, just like it did during the blizzard. Everyone looked on in awe.
When Lilith stopped singing, everyone applauded. "Your voice will definitely help us beat the Nightdreamers!" Esperanza said.
"Thank you!" Lilith said.
"You're welcome! Now, who's going next?" Esperanza said.
"I will," Coletta said. She stepped forward. "This was one of the Author's favorite songs in 2012." Coletta started singing If We Hold Together, By Diana Ross. She sang it beautifully. Her body started glowing pink, the color of her powers. When she stopped singing, everyone applauded again.
"That was amazing!" Esperanza said. She let Lily go next, then Cadenza, and a few other people, and, finally, it was time for Esperanza herself to sing.
She sang a beautiful operatic melody. She glowed magenta. After the beautiful song was over, Esperanza got a standing ovation when she stopped singing. She went backstage.
"Wow, that was amazing!" Lily said. "But, what was the song?" She asked.
"We Agadorians ward off evil by singing random operatic melodies. It doesn't matter how well you sing something or the way you sing it. All that matters is what's in here." Esperanza pointed at Lily's heart. "What matters is that you sing the melody within your heart.
"I'll remember that. I think I want to try to help The Dreams. Since they're just millions of bad dreams together, that can't feel good at all! I think they would make a great addition to the family if I was able to turn them into good dreams!" Lily said.
Esperanza's face softened. "You know, you have a big heart. I once knew a kid like you in my timeline, and I think you two would be great friends!"
"Really? Who is he?" Lily asked.
"His name was Steven Universe. He was from a TV show that hasn't premiered yet, but since I was sent from the future, we went on some missions together!" Esperanza said.
"Well, since I'm going on missions too, maybe I'll get to meet him!" Lily said.
"I think you will!" Esperanza said. She went to join the others.
As she was walking, she thought, Lily has an amazing heart, but will an amazing heart be enough to purify The Dreams? I don't want to tell her and break her heart, but I don't want to see her get hurt!
A determined look appeared on her face. I know! I'll help her do it! If she's not powerful to do it on her own, then I know she'll be able to do it with a little help from the other incarnations! Esperanza thought.
Esperanza walked over to Corrin, who had sung the song Lost in Thoughts All Alone.
"Hey, Corrin, could you help me with something?" She needed him to help rally other characters who weren't there that day.
Corrin didn't respond. Esperanza tried again. "Corrin?"
"UGH, DON'T TALK TO ME, YOU PRISSY, PINK PRINCESS!" Corrin lashed out.
"Corrin!" Esperanza shouted. Why was he acting like that?
His sister Cadenza noticed what was going on, and walked over. "Corrin, what's gotten into you?"
"NOTHING! I'M FINE!" He yelled, again.
"You don't sound fine!" Cadenza replied back.
"WHAT DO YOU CARE?" What was going on? Why was corrin acting like this?
Just then, someone called Cadenza. "Cadenza! Coletta's having a vision!"
Cadenza ran to Coletta. When the vision ended, she described it. "This one was cryptic! All I saw was the letter v."
"What could that mean?" Esperanza asked.
Esperanza's eyes widened. "I know exactly what it means." She walked over to Corrin. She grabbed his hand and showed a v-shaped mark on his palm. "It's the mark of Valtor! He's an evil wizard from season 3 of Winx Club! He must be our next mission!" Esperanza said.
"But how will we turn Corrin back?" Cadenza asked.
"I can do it. Remember, I was a Winx fairy in the old timeline, which closely mirrors this one. I have the power of Enchantix, which comes with fairy dust. It will dispel the enchantment Valtor has upon Corrin." Coletta transformed into her Enchantix form. She used her pink, heart-shaped fairy dust bottle, and the Mark of Valtor disappeared from Corrin's palm.
Corrin came to his senses. "Wh-what? What's going on?"
Coletta explained. "You were under a curse. You weren't yourself but it wasn't your fault, it was the fault of Valtor."
"Wait, who's Valtor?" Corrin asked.
"He's the villain we must defeat next," Colette said.
"I'll make a call to the Multiverse Hotel," Cadenza said. She headed to the phone.
Just then, it dawned on Lily what had happened! "Remember when The Author gave us that prophecy? One of the words she said was V!" She said.
Meanwhile, Cadenza was on the phone with the Hotel. "Yes, we need admission to the Hotel. Winx club, to be specific."
"Right on it!" The person on the other line said.
Cadenza also made a call to Alfea. After she got off the phone, she helped everyone get ready for the mission. She got Lily ready, and everyone got into the car, to go to the hotel. When they got there, Cadenza got everyone in.
"Yes, I was who called about the Winx Club room," Cadenza said, to the person at the front desk.
"Yes, I remember. Right this way!" He said, cordially.
The group went to the Winx Club room. Lily opened the door. She was amazed at what she saw.
"Wooooow!" Lily said. Because through the door was Alfea College for Fairies. Fairies were practicing spells left and right, and it looked beautiful!
"Well, what are we waiting for? Are those spells gonna cast themselves?" Cadenza said.
"No!" Lily said, excitedly. Everyone went through the doorway.
When they got to the other side, they were greeted by Headmistress Faragonda.
"Thank the heavens you're here! I got a call from my former student, Cadenza about what happened to poor Corrin. That mark has been causing so much trouble..." Ms. Faragonda explained.
"We're just glad to help," Lily said.
"Thank you. Ever since Queen Megan appointed Valtor, it's been nothing but chaos across the entire Magic Dimension!" Ms. Faragonda explained.
"I understand just what you're going through. I wasn't aware of what I was doing while I had the mark, but I was told I yelled at my sister." Corrin said.
"Yes, his powers are great, but we'll defeat him together!" Ms. Faragonda said.
Everyone agreed. Just then, The Winx approached the group. "We'll help!" Bloom said.
"The Winx! You're here!" Lily said.
"Yes, we are, and in style!" Stella said.
"Yeah, we wouldn't desert you guys!" Aisha said.
"I'm so glad to see you!" Lily said. She had been missing the Winx.
"We're all glad to see you again, too!" Musa said.
"Guys, there is someone I would like you to meet." Ms. Faragonda said.
A group of boys approached the group.
"Guys, these are the Red Fountain Specialists. They will help you defeat Valtor.
"Hi, everyone. My name's Sky and I'm the leader of the Specialists. If we all team up, we'll definitely defeat Val-" Sky was cut off, by a blast of dark energy colliding with the ground behind him.
Valtor had used his magic to break through Alfea's protective barrier!
"We're under attack!" Bloom said.
"Magic Winx! Enchantix!" The six girls said, along with Esperanza, Coletta, and Cadenza. They all transformed into their beautiful, sparkly, Enchantix outfits.
"Let's go, girls!" Bloom said. They flew towards Valtor, to confront him.
"Do you really want to fight me?" Valtor asked, smirking. He conjured a big ball of Nightdreamer energy. "Then, by all means, GO AHEAD!" He threw it at the Winx. They evaded it and counterattacked.
Their magic hit Valtor. "You'll regret that!" He created a massive, lethal burst of magic! He threw it at the Winx. They couldn't get out of the way soon enough! It was just about to collide with them when a blue creature flew in front and took the attack.
It was Lilith.
She had turned into her Astral Dragon form and shielded the Winx from what would be their dooms. Lilith fell from the sky, unconscious.
When she opened her eyes, she was in a landscape covered in blue clouds.
"Where am I?" She asked out loud. She came to a realization. "I'm... DEAD? No... This can't be right... This looks nothing like the death The Author showed me..." She was understandably confused because she should've been at home.
Lilith stood up. Wait... If I AM dead... She thought. Then Dire must be somewhere!" She started looking for him.
"Lilith, I'm here," Dire said. He approached Lilith, who hugged him.
"I've missed you so much! But, why am I here?" She asked.
"Because the Author has seen the error of her ways, and has offered you a chance to be with me earlier," Dire said.
Lilith's eyes widened. "Really?" She asked.
Dire smiled and stroked her cheek. "Yes. She has given you a choice. Either stay here with me, or return home, and meet me again here later."
"So we could be together!" Lilith said.
"Yes, we can. But It's your choice, Lilith. Neither the Author nor I will attempt to persuade or force you to stay. That is all up to you." Dire said.
Lilith walked away from Dire, to process the decision. "If I stay, We'll be together, but if don't leave, everyone will miss me..." Lilith pondered for a little bit.
I want to stay, but everyone needs me... If I go now, during The Dreams crisis, I won't be there to protect everyone... Lilith knew what she had to do...
"Dire, I love you so much, but I need to help my friends," Lilith said.
Dire smiled. "Go, my love. I will be waiting here until we meet again." Dire said. "There's actually one more thing I want to give you," Dire said. He started singing a song called Thank You. It was a beautiful, heartfelt farewell song.
"I'll see you later, my Dire..." Lilith said as she disappeared from the spirit realm.
When she opened her eyes to the real world, no time had passed. Lilith looked around at the battle, with everything the way it was when she left. But, one thing was different. She looked down at herself.
Normal legs? I only float when I'm in my Astral Dragon form! Lilith thought. She looked behind her. She had two sparkly, diamond-shaped, red, and blue fairy wings!
"Lilith! You're back! And you're an Enchantix now!" Aisha said.
The incarnations flew over to her. Coletta was the first to comment. "To become an Enchantix, someone must sacrifice themselves for someone from their homeworld. Since both you and Cadenza are from the universe of Fire Emblem, you selflessly jumping in front of her granted you your Enchantix."
"Wow! I didn't even think I was a fairy!" Lilith said.
"The author has chosen to make all girls in her story fairies. Every power we encounter on our journey will be utilized by all of us." Esperanza said.
"That's amazing! Now, let's take care of this villain!" Lilith said. She used her ice star powers on Valtor. It was working! She was one of the most powerful fairies the Winx had ever seen! Lilith fired an ice spell at him that pulled him from the sky, and froze his feet to the ground!
Valtor knew he was losing. But, since he could still fire spells from his hands, he tried a nasty strategy, and fired a spell at an unsuspecting Lily!
Lilith was caught off guard. Since Lily didn't have her Winx yet, she wouldn't be able to shield herself! "Lily, look out!" Lilith shouted.
The girl turned around and saw the ball of magic. She outstretched her hand to shield herself from the spell. All of a sudden, she was enveloped with a pink light! When she emerged, she was a fairy! She was wearing a pink ballet tutu, with matching slippers. Her wings were heart-shaped and pink.
"IMPOSSIBLE!" Valtor said.
"I think it is possible!" Lily said. She fired a pink spell at Valtor.
"NO! You can't defeat me!" Valtor said. He fired a beam at Lily. She did the same, and the beams collided. Lily pushed with all her strength but just wants powerful enough.
"Please! I need everyone's help!" Lily said. Everyone came to her aid, and they were able to defeat Valtor!
"NOOOO! YOU HAVEN'T SEEN THE LAST OF ME!" He shouted as he disappeared back into his dragon flame. Lilith froze the flame in a protective, unmeltable ice shell, so he could be taken back to Haventown. When she froze it, the Paragon Essence went to Lily.
"We did it!" Lily said. Everyone celebrated. They all said goodbye to the Winx, and went back to the Mansion.
Meanwhile, the villains were setting up for the next plot.
"IMPOSSIBLE! Another plan thwarted by Lily?" Megan was furious. "It seems we'll have to appoint the next villain in the game!" Megan whistled, and a white cockatoo bird flew into view...
Author's note: Hello, dreamers! That was pretty emotional, right? So, Lily and Lilith got their fairy forms, and Valtor is no longer a threat! I may have already revealed too much for the next mission, sooo, I'll just reveal it right now: Rio! I love that movie, and it was one of my first introductions to the beauty of Brazil as a kid. So, the Rio mission will have to do with the characters from the mission after it, then we'll go to their world after the Rio mission. P.S I'm trying a new strategy of posting one chapter a day. So far it's been pretty hectic, but I'll try to get the next one out tomorrow! Stay Lucid!
