Chapter 11 The Monster and the Willow
I don't own Kamen Rider ZI-O or Winx Club
Reiji was at Alfea and Faragonda to look out for anything strange since the Trix came to the simulation room, he wondered how they did it so he will have to watch out, Bloom told about what happened and it made worried but she said the place she was in Domino felt strange for her.
Reiji was at the entrance and then sees Flora with a few bags and a big one with a tent.
"Flora why are you carrying all that stuff, are you going camping or something?"Reiji asked.
"I'm taking my stuff to black mud swamp."Flora said surprising him.
"Wait, why?"Reiji asked.
"My plants have been causing too much trouble for my friends, so it's best I did my research there."Flora said.
"I can't let you go on your own, so how about I go with you."Reiji said.
"Really?"Floare asked surprised.
"Yeah, I wouldn't be doing my job if I didn't go."Reiji said.
"Thanks Reiji."Flora smiled.
He smiled and help her take her stuff too, they arrived at the swamp and set up camp near a river, Flora has her note book out and Reiji was sitting next to her by the tent.
"Well I'm glad you could come with me Reiji."Flora said.
"Hey were friends, I don't mind going with you so you don't feel lonely."Reiji said.
Flora smiled and then she dropped her book by accident, she then goes to pick it up but Reiji's hand touches hers making them look at each other, they were staring at each others eyes and they blushed, Reiji then gets the book and gives it to her.
"Oh, thanks."Flora said.
"Your welcomed."Reiji said.
"You know, I still that rose you got for me."Flora said.
"Oh really."Reiji said and she takes it out.
"It keep it healthy since it's a gift from you."Flora said.
"Well I'm happy that you enjoyed it."Reiji said.
Flora holds the rose to her chest and looks at him, she stares at him with a smile and she gets closer to him but then they heard a voice snapping her out of her thoughts."hey guys."they then saw the girls go towards them and Flora steps back with a blush since she tried to kiss him.
"Hey girls."Reiji waved at them."so what brings you here?"
"We came here to help Flora."Bloom said.
"I can't believe you followed me here."Flora said.
"Yeah neither."Stella said bring a foot up and it reveal her shoe covered in slime.
"It is a swamp, so you had to expect that."Reiji said.
"They may be a bit grumpy but they care about you Flora."Bloom said.
"Anyway, I hope this camping trip doesn't last long."Stella said.
"If you all help me find this magic flower, it won't last long at all."Flora takes out a book from her backpack with a flower on the cover, she opens to show a flower."see this is the cheerful gladiolus."
"That's a pretty flower but are you sure it can be found around here?"Stella said.
"Absolutely the ecosystem of this swamp is quite diversified."Flora said.
"And what do you need it for exactly?"Musa asked.
"The essence of the cheerful gladiolus is antidote for the witches sadness spell."Flora then laughs.
"Very well then what are waiting for let's go and get the flowers so we cna get back."Stella said.
"It's not as easy as that, it's very skittish flower, it doesn't let it be picked."Flora said.
"Don't tell me we have to coax into following us of it's own free will, I had it with walking plants."Stella said.
"Be grateful it could have been worse."Reiji said to himself and he remembers Gaim and a certain forest world.
"Actually we just have to ask the flower to extend one of it's petals."Flora then takes out a bottle and takes out the dropper."and then I'll use a drop of this mixture, one of my inventions and check this out."she then goes towards a grass leaf where Kiko was close by, she then puts a drop on it and it falls to the ground, then it grew more making Kiko scared.
"Hey that was fast."Reiji said.
"I can create an infinite of artifical petals."Flora said putting it back on the bag.
"This is great, let's get to work right away."Bloom said she then looks at Kiko who was eating a plant."Kiko you stay right here okay, the swamp is not a good place for you to walk about."
"Can I stay too, I won't wander off, I promisse cross my heart."Stella said.
"Stella please don't start complaining already."Musa said.
"Hey where's your friend Mirai?"Tecna asked Reiji.
"He's over there."Reiji points to the side and they saw him looking at them.
"I am looking after my lord."Mirai said while bowing.
"He's always a weird one."Stella said and they went to find the flower.
They were walking around the swamp and Stella was on top of a hill and the others were bellow at the grass with Reiji near her.
She steps on puddle and said:"oh no, why oh why the swamp so."she then wipes her show with a cloth.
"Swampy."Musa said.
"Your coments are uncalled for Musa."Stella said.
"So is your outfit for goodness sake this is a muddy swamp not a fashin show."Musa said.
"What does that have to do anything, a Winx is always a winx."Stella then goes in front and falls down but then she lands on Reiji with her arms and legs around him.
"Hey."Reiji said.
"Don't let me go."Stella said holding on to him since she didn't want to get dirty but she liked being that close to him.
"Oh come on Stella."Tecna said.
"When will we find those stupid flowers."Stella said.
Flora then said:"hush quiet."
"What is it Flora?"Reiji asked and they looked at where she's looking.
"Look."Flora point at the river and sees tiny creatures there playing around.
"Wow there so beautiful."Bloom said.
"Yes and they're tiny."Musa said.
Stella tries to see only she screams about to fall getting they're attention.
"Ground walkers let's go quick."they start to leave.
"No no no, wait wait, please we don't want to hurt you were your friends."Flora said calming them down."we need your help."
Then the little ones showed them to another place walking through the water, Stella was this time down after she scared them, they were seeing many types of plants there.
"What an amazing place and look at all the flowers, the lilies and gladioli, the water nymphs were right to bring us here."Flora then smells some of the flowers."I0m sure we'll be able to find what were looking for."
"Uh Flora."Reiji said.
"What is it Reiji?"Flora then looks and then sees the bubbles inside the water that had little houses.
"It's a miniature city."Bloom said.
"Fascinating the water nymphs live in air bubbles under the leaf of a water lily."Flora said.
A Nymphs comes up and said:"we don't want to be rude or anything but we have a bit of a problem, see we can't really invite into our house, your kind of big we have no room."
"Yes, unlike the metal friend we met."another Nymph said surprising them.
"Metal friend."Reiji said.
Then Mirai comes out of the entrance of one of the houses."hello my lord."
"Mirai."the group said surprised.
"You can shrink?"Tecna said.
"Of course."Mirai said.
"He is just full of surprises."Bloom said.
"Why are you doing there?"Reiji asked.
"I was simply observing these creatures and how they live they're lifes."Mirai said.
"Our Queen expressed the wish to meet you follow us."A nymph said and they followed her.
They then arrived to see the queen sitting on her throne with two other nymphs at her side.
"We are very happy to have you here, you see we don't often see visitors."Queen said.
"Yes, thank your majesty."Reiji said.
"You must have had a long journey you look a bit tired, may I offer you some refreshments."Queen offered.
"Actually all we really want is to touch the petal of a cheerful gladiolus, may we?"Flora said.
"Of course you may, I can tell you have a lot of respect for nature."Queen said.
"But it seems almost incredible that nobody's has met you before outside of Mirai."Flora said.
"Yes, he's a nice fellow, and we keep a low profile, we know where to hide when we and then if so few creatures ever come around here there must be a reason."Queen said.
"Perharps you heard of something called the great monster of black island."nymph said.
"A monster?"Reiji said.
"Yes, if you look after that way rigth behind the fog bank you'll see an island right in the middle of the swamp."Queen points at it and they saw it."it's a gigantic evil monster which threatens my people daily."
"Wht don't you move somewhere else?"Bloom asked.
"Because our survival depends on plant called Xilith that can only be found on that island, with great patience we are able to make a stong and transparent material."Queen said.
"The Water bubbles."Reiji said.
"That's right without them we would have to be in the surface where predators may get us, but the black monsters makes it hard for us to gather the leaves."nymph said.
"Once in a while one of us volunteer to go to the island and pick at least one leaf and it was Lusiz turn."Queen said and one of the nymphs cried.
"Why what's wrong what happened to Lusiz?"Bloom asked.
"She never came back."Queen said making her gasp."It's our destiny we have been living like this for quite some time."
"Well i think it's time for us to help out."Bloom said and the girls transformed into they're fairy forms.
Then Mirai appears next to Reiji in his normal size carrying a Ziku Driver."my lord."
"Where did you come from?"Stella said surprised.
Reiji takes it and puts it on his waist.
ZIKU DRIVER!
He takes out the Zi-O ridewatch and pressed the button.
ZI-O!
He then inserts it on the driver making the standby music appear along with the clock, he then presses the button on the driver and said:"henshin."he then spins the driver.
RIDER TIME, KAMEN RIDER ZI-O!
Reiji then transformed into Kamen Rider Zi-O surprising them nymphs.
"So this is the power Mirai told us about you."Queen said.
"Wait what?"Zi-O looks at Mirai.
"I was only telling the grand tales of you my lord."Mirai said.
"Let's go."Zi-O said and they went towards the Island.
Mirai made the platforms for Zi-O to stand while the girls fly, they went towards the island and then Zi-O saw something coming out of the water.
"Watch out."then a monsters head came out it then goes towards Musa but Zi-O grab her away and they went to the island with the girls following them, then the monster goes back to the ocean.
"That was too close."Zi-O puts Musa down and the girls go to they're side with Mirai following them.
"Thanks Reiji."Musa said.
"Now let's go find the it before the monster comes back."Zi-O said and he then notices a pink mist around them.
Stella yawns and said:"why he's gone."
"No it means he can come back."Tecna said.
They then walked foward and Mirai was watching the mist getting a signature.
"My lord this isn't a good place."Mirai said.
Tecna then did a test on the plants and get shocked:"guys this has a sleep powder."
"Oh no."Zi-O then sees the other girls failing as sleep while Tecna was able to put her helmet on.
"Look."Mirai said and they saw a tree with a small nymph next to it who must be Lusiz.
"I have a plan."Tecna then made a air bubble to let them breath and then made it bigger.
The girls woke up and got up.
"Where am I what happened?"Musa said.
"Turn off the light."Stella said waking up.
"Girls were in trouble if you don't wake up."Zi-O said.
Lusiz woku up and Zi-O goes up to her."hey you must be Lusiz rigth?"
"Yes and I know who you are, I could never thank you enough."Lusiz said.
"She has the ability to know what's happening even while sleeping."Mirai said.
"amazing, well need to go before the monster comes after us."Zi-O said.
"Oh no we are on top of the monster you see this isnland is actually the monster that is sleeping walking because of the red tree."Lusiz said.
"So the monster is turtles head getting in and out of it's shell."Bloom said.
"Well we need to find a way to help him."Zi-O said and then he sees the tree coming to life."look out."then tree then attacks them mkaing the break go back."I'll deal with it."
"Are you sure?"Flora asked.
"Of course, in fact I have the perfect armor."Zi-O then takes out the Gaim ridewatch.
GAIM!
He then slots it on the other side and rotates the driver.
RIDER TIME, KAMEN RIDER ZI-O! ARMOR TIME!
Then armor appears above him and comes down attaching to him.
SOIYA! GAIM!
Then Zi-O was now in Gaimarmor form.
"Rejoice! The one to inherit all Rider powers, the time king who will rule over the past and the future! His name is Kamen Rider Zi-O Gaimarmor! This is the moment that he uses the inheritance another Rider's power!"Mirai said.
"Hey that one has a orange parts on it."Flora said looking at it with a smile.
"Well I guess we found your favorite armor."Stella said.
Zi-O then takes out two Daidaimaru Z and poses."This is my stage now."
Zi-O then charges at the tree slicing at the branches cutting them down, he then raises his sword up and then multiple oranges appeared and rained down at the tree, he then jumps over it and slashes at it multiple times before going back to his original spot.
"Now to finis you off."Zi-O then pushes the buttons on the watches.
FINISH TIME! GAIM!
He then rotates the driver.
SQUASH TIME BREAK!
He then charges at the tre with both blades glowing and then it slashes at it cutting it into three pieces and then it explodes.
Lusiz then sees the mist clearing and said:"now with the tree gone the creature will be able to live in peace."
"Now let that leaf."Bloom said and they nodded.
They arrived back to the queen who thanked them even if with one leaf she feared that would be gone but Flora used her potion to make more and that made her happy, the queen then gave her a flower that she needed.
Queen then looks at Reiji and said:"Reiji I thank you for saving my people along with your friends."
"It's nothing your majesty."Reiji said.
"You know, if you were my size I would have married you."Queen said with a smile.
"What?!"The group said.
"Hey you know I think it's time we go."Stella said pulling Reiji away along with the rest of the girls
"Yeah good point."Tecna said.
"See ya later."Bloom said.
"Do you rellay mean it my queen?"Lusiz asked.
"Why not, he's a brave young man, the only thing stopping me is our size."Queen said.
On another part of Magix Brandon was walking his dog lady at the park at night, he then stops to see a girl with long blue hair, she was wearing blue clothing and then see looks at him.
"Oh hey there."Brandon said.
"Hi."She goes up to him.
"What are you doing here at this time of the night?"Brandon asked.
"I wanted to get some fresh air, so what's your name?"She asked.
"I'm Brandon, may I know your name?"Brandon said.
"Lucina."Lucina looks at hi in the eyes.
He then noticed the marking on one of her eyes."sorry to ask this but what's wrong with you eye?"
"Oh this."Lucina touches it."it's a birth mark in my family, my father had it on his shoulder but I got on my eye."
"Really cool."Brandon said.
"Yeah, your one of those Specialists right?"Lucina asked.
"Yeah, I hope you heard good things."Brandon said.
"Well I heard your pretty good, maybe you would like to test your skills with me."Lucina said.
"Wow you can fight too."Brandon said and she nodded."that's cool, maybe next time."
"Yeah I'll see ya later Brandon."Lucina then leaves while waving at him.
He waves back and Lady goes up to him."You know Lady, maybe she might be my actual friend that's a girl, I wonder how good is she?"
