At Alfea, Aisha was getting as much needed rest as possible. She walks over to the window and pulls the curtains open. As Aisha looks out the window, she sees Piff sleepily flying around. "Piff!" Aisha cried out and runs out of the infirmary to find her.

In the corridor, Aisha had a run in with Knut. She gave a small shriek as he walks towards her. Aisha takes a step back in fear as Knut continues to walk towards her. Seeing that Aisha was scared, he walks past her.

"You shouldn't leave the ward yet. You're still very weak." the nurse said as she spots Aisha up and about with Faragonda.

"Well now, you're the Pixie's friend." said Faragonda.

"Uh, do we know each other?" Aisha asked Faragonda.

"My name is Faragonda. I'm the director here at Alfea." she said. "I visited your father many years ago, but you were too young to remember. You really do look like him though."

"Lucky me." said Aisha.

"In any case, the Pixies have always said good things about you." Faragonda tells her.

"Piff? Have you seen her?" Aisha asked. "She was flying in the garden and I think she fell asleep in midair."

"Awe."

"What?" questioned Faragonda.

"Which way is it to outside?" she then asked.

"Uh, that way." said Faragonda, showing her that she was going in the wrong direction.

"Thanks." said Aisha as she turns around and runs in the other direction.

"My, what a willful young lady." Faragonda said to the nurse.

"She forgot her clothes." the nurse added, holding Aisha's clothes.

Aisha runs down the corridor and tries to open a door. "No!" she said as the door wouldn't budge.

"Yes! Answers to the homework." said a fairy as she walks down the corridor, holding her books. She looks up as Aisha accidentally crashes into her, causing the fairy to fall.

"Sorry!" Aisha called out over her shoulder as she continued to run down the corridor.

Outside, Piff continues to sleep as she flies around. Aisha made it outside and starts looking for Piff. "What planet is she from?" another fairy asked her friend, watching Aisha run barefoot across campus.

"Strange." her friend replied.

Up in the air, Piff yawns as she stops flying and falls to the ground. Aisha then spots her falling and starts running to catch her. "NO!" screamed Aisha, making a run for it. "PIFF!"

Piff hears Aisha's voice and opens her eyes, spreading her wings before hitting the ground. Now that she was awake, Piff decided to happily head inside through an open window.

"Piff!" said Aisha, then runs back inside. Once she had caught up with her bonded pixie, Aisha sees that Piff was near an opened window that led to a classroom. Aisha couldn't stop her as Piff went inside.

Wizgiz was teaching his class, unaware that Piff had entered the classroom. "Magic is based on the principal of inconsistency continuity and so there is no direct cause of relationship." Wizgiz said as he looks up to see Piff entering the classroom.

"Piff!" said Flora as they watch her fall towards them. Aisha opens the classroom doors and runs to catch Piff.

"I told you something was going to happen in class, Bloom." said Rose as they see Aisha on the ground with Piff in her arms.

"Yeah, but you didn't say which class." Bloom tells her.

"We'll split it. I'll bathe Kiko, you bathe Lavender." Rose compromised.

"Agreed. Yay!" said Bloom as she and Rose clapped their hands for Aisha. Other joined in as Wizgiz gave Aisah a stern look.

"Report to the director's office straight away, lass." Wizgiz told Aisha, pointing her out of his classroom.

"And so…." Aisha said to Faragonda once she was in her office. "after the underground river carried me outside, I managed to run all the way here through the dark forest."

"Do you have any idea why the pixies have been kidnapped?" questioned Faragonda.

"I'm not sure. I wondered that myself." replied Aisha. "Maybe he wants to blackmail them or maybe he's trying to get something from them."

"Yes, that's what I'm afraid of." Faragonda said, agreeing with Aisha's thinking. "Especially if our enemy's ability to absorb magic is dangerous."

"Do you know him?" asked Aisha. "Do you have any idea who or what he is?"

Faragonda hung her head and sighed, trying to find the heart to tell her. "Headmistress, please…if he is dangerous, you have to tell me." Aisha begged her. "The Pixies are in trouble."

"Honestly, I don't know who this enemy of ours is. But we will find out." said Faragonda as she walks around her desk and pats Piff on her head. "And no matter what, we must find the underground entrance and free the pixies. That's the bottom line."

Later on, Faragonda summons the Winx. "My dear girls, as you may have guessed the reason I've asked you to come here is to organize a rescue mission." Faragonda explained to them. "As you know, fairies and pixies have always been the closest of friends so we must free them at any cost."

"At any cost, huh?" asked Stella. "Does that mean we get to skip classes and still get full credits?"

"After everything Aisha's gone through, cant you think of something other than skipping classes?" Faragonda said to her.

"Well, actually…its just that if its such a dangerous mission, why not send the professors?" Stella then asked.

"Hey!" said the others.

"No, no….that's all right." said Faragonda. "Stella has raised a very good point. As professors, its our job to guide our students and in case of emergency, we have to be available to help everyone."

"So, in other words, its up to us to turn this prince into a pauper?" asked Musa.

"You've all shown great skill in the fight against the Trix." Faragonda said. "However, the Pixies are your priority now. Its not wise to challenge an unknown enemy."

"So we should avoid direct confrontation?" Bloom asked.

"Exactly." said Faragonda. "Don't forget, this dark knight absorbs magic energy."

"That means he can turn our powers against us." said Tecna.

"Aisha will be your guide. She's the only one who can find the entrance to the cave." Faragonda said. "I want you to look for clues that could help us discover the identity of this evil creature."

Everyone but Aisha then looks at Rose. "Why is everyone looking at me like that?" Rose asked.

"You're the only one who can defend herself without thinking to use magic." said Tecna.

"And you're the only person I know who can use the bo, Rose." said Bloom.

"That's because I had to learn how to use it, safely I might add in martial arts." Rose argued.

"You'll have to take it with you in case something happens." said Faragonda and Rose nodded. "Now follow me." She then leads the Winx down a corridor. "Now I'd like to point out that some of you will not be taking part in this rescue mission."

"But we do everything together." the twins said to Faragonda.

"Yes, and no one gets left behind ever." added Flora.

"Each of you has powers better suited to some missions than others." Faragonda tells them. "Would you send a frog to live in a hot dry desert."

"I wouldn't want to be the poor frog." said Tecna. "I'd dry out in about 1.4 hours."

"You don't have to worry about that, Tecna." Faragonda said. "You'll stay at Alfea."

"Uh…excuse me, but her techno magic…" Flora said.

"Will help us monitor the situation from here." Faragonda assures her. "Bloom, Rose and Stella will go on this mission."

"But why only the three of us?" asked Rose and Bloom.

"Yeah, why?" asked Stella.

"Because Bloom and Rose possess the dragon fires. The strongest magics of all while Stella's sun magic will be very helpful should they ever come up against the shadow monsters." explained Faragonda. "It will also give Rose time on this mission to channel her fire through her martial arts bo."

"Eh?" asked Rose, turning to Bloom and Stella.

"What about Flora's plants? My sound waves?" asked Musa. "Aren't they worth anything?"

"Come into the hall please." said Faragonda and leads them into the front entrance. "Wait here, girls."

"What is she doing?" asked Flora as Faragonda casts a spell in the front entrance.

"Musa, Flora, use your spells." instructed Faragonda.

"Ready!" shouted Flora as she used a spell to make plants when nothing was happening. "Nothing is working. There are no living plants down here."

"But we still got sound." said Musa. "Everyone, stand back!" She then created a ball of sound waves and sends it into an entrance. "Oh no! Its echoing!"

"Cave vibrations!" shouted Rose.

"The vibrations are a cave in!" shouted Tecna as stalactites fell from the ceiling. One stalactite fell from the ceiling, aiming for Musa.

"NO!" she screamed. Faragonda claps her hands and the illusion of the cave disappeared from the front entrance.

"Is the cave really like that?" Stella asked.

"I don't know…" said Rose, holding onto her sister's leg. "But I'm scared to find when we get there."

"Get off me, Rose!" shouted Bloom, trying to pry her twin off of her.

"Make me!" Rose challenge her.

"Wow. That was even better than the computer controlled simulator." said Tecna.

"Musa, listen to me." said Faragonda as she had tears in her eyes. "You're just as important as your friends. Your powers will be needed soon enough." Flora rushed over and held Musa's hand.

"Rose, I said get off!" Bloom shouted at her twin sister, who still held on tight to her leg as she tried to push her off.

"Fine!" Rose shouted back, letting go. "Next time I'll hug Kiko and Lavender!"

"You can't just hang onto me!" Bloom tells her, rolling her eyes.

"Well, maybe if you weren't such a drama queen, I wouldn't have to!" said Rose, crossing her arms defiantly.

"Bloom, Rose, that's enough arguing." Faragonda scolded them. "This is not the way to solve things, is it?"

"But she's being impossible!" said Bloom.

"Is a crime that I don't want to be to be part of a cave in?" asked Rose, still defensive.

"No, it's not a crime at all. Sisters should stick together, even if you have your disagreements. But there are better ways to show you care." said Faragonda, her tone softened.

As they were preparing to leave, Piff starts tearing up and starts crying. "Come on, it's okay. I'll be back soon." Aisha assures Piff as she calms down. "Now that's better. You'll see"

"Hey Piff. I have a job for you." said Rose as she carries Lavender in her arms. "This is Lavender….I need you to keep an eye on her."

Piff babbles her question as Lavender sits in front of her. "Because I believe that you and Lavender will have a lot of fun." Rose said to Piff. Lavender then pressed her bunny nose into Piff's cheek, causing her to giggle. "Lavender, promise me that you and Kiko will protect Piff."

"Ah-ya!" shouted Lavender, holding her wooden bo as she salutes Rose.

"See, Piff? Lavender and Kiko will protect you." Aisha tells her as Piff hugs her. "When I come back, I'll have all the other pixies with me."

Piff cries again then babbles to Aisha, telling her that she believes in her. "Aisha, take these seeds of light with you." said Faragonda as she handed her the seeds.

"Do they have magic powers?" she asked.

"Yes, in an emergency they will drive away any kind of shadow creatures but only once." Faragonda explained. "Well girls, are you all ready for your mission?"

"With only four fairies, I don't think it will be sufficient." Tecna said, giving her opinion.

"A small group can move quickly and is much less noticeable." said Faragonda.

"And besides, they're not going alone." said Saladin.

Just then, four windriders pull up to Alfea. "Yes! The specialists." said Stella.

"No fair. You three get to have all the fun." said Musa.

"I'm very happy that you come to help, Saladin." said Faragonda.

"Its my pleasure to answer your call, Faragonda." he said, happy to do it. "I'll lend you three of my best Red Fountain Specialists. Sky, Brandon and Orion."

"No, Stella and Brandon?" asked Tecna. "Bloom and Sky? Rose and Orion? Goodness gracious. What a coincidence. Aisha, looks like you'll have to play chaperone."

"You mean that love is their specialty?" asked Aisha.

"You can say that again, cutie." said Brandon. "Are you the new girl?"

"Uh-oh, he heard me." she said, looking away.

"Well, girls are we ready to go?" asked Sky.

"I can already see that someone's getting antsy." said Orion.

"Aisha, you'll be riding with Riven for now." Saladin said, causing Musa to gasp, glare at Riven for a moment before sighing.

"Hey girls!" Timmy called out as he came in on their aircraft. "How's it going?"

"Hi Timmy!" said Tecna, waving at him.

"Ready when you are, big boy." Stella said to Brandon.

"Come on, get on." Riven said to Aisha as Musa looks away in anger.

"Who says you get to drive?" asked Aisha.

"Huh?"

"Oh this is something I gotta see." said Rose.

"What? You think I've never ridden a motorbike before?" she asked Riven. Taking the wheel, Aisha takes off.

"Good luck!" said Musa, Flora and Tecna.

"Bah do tah!" said Piff, wishing them luck.

"Catch you later!" said Brandon as they take off after Aisha and Riven.

"Okay, hang on!" said Orion and Sky as they sped up towards the aircraft.

"Come my dear fairies, they will need our support." Faragonda said as she and Saladin walked inside.

"So, who's the bad guy this time?" asked Brandon.

"Don't know, but we heard he's pretty tough." said Stella.

"Yeah, but the specialists can tackle absolutely anything." Brandon said. "You should see all the cool stuff we got for this mission. Rope, grapplers, Techno magic gear, and this…"

"Guys." grumbled Aisha.

"Its so cool. Look, it's a demolecularizer t29." said Brandon.

"Dima…Dem…moisturizer…what?" asked Stella.

"Codatorta, our teacher says we can use it to pass through walls and other solid objects." Brandon explained.

"Dude, I prefer my bo staff." said Rose, cleaning the pieces. "It make not be magic, but its what I like using."

"Uh, Brandon." said Aisha.

"Timmy, show the girls what the new engine can do." said Brandon.

"Sure." said Timmy and starts showing how powerful the engine is.

"Whoo! 18 dragon power titanium frame. What a dream machine." Brandon tells the girls as the aircraft went faster.

"Excuse me!" Aisha called out.

"Yes, Aisha?"

"The enemy's the other way!" she tells them.

"Yeah….we knew that." said Brandon.

"Now I'm feeling sick." said Rose as Timmy turns the aircraft around.

"Is it working?" asked Musa as they watched the others fly away.

"Affirmative, but it's going to take a lot of work to keep track of them in the caves." said Tecna.

"I hope they come back soon." said Flora. Later that day, Aisha, the Winx and the Specialists made it.

"There's the valley." said Aisha, pointing towards the valley. "And that river is the one I used to escape from the cave."

"This is where I should drop you off then?" asked Timmy.

"No, it's easier to get inside through the old mines in the cave." Aisha tells him.

"Then lets go." said Sky.

Timmy takes them inside through the mines. "Oh, is this the spot?" Timmy then asked.

"Yeah, that's where the tar monsters went after kidnapping the pixies in the forest." said Aisha and Timmy brings them to an opening.

"There's no place to land." he tells them. "You're going to have to jump out while we're airborne, guys."

"Fine by us." said Sky and Orion as they both went down.

"Come on, everybody out." Sky called out.

"Oh no." said Stella as she climbs down first.

"Everything okay?" Sky asked. "Was that something important?"

"Yes, my makeup kit." she tells him.

"Stella, the Shadow creatures aren't going to say how pretty you are." Orion said. "That's what you have Brandon for."

"Yeah, forget it." said Sky. "Just slide down the rope."

"Must admit…." said a strained Stella. "for once, I miss school."

"Good luck, guys." said Riven once everyone was down.

Aisha then starts walking into the cave. "Follow me." she said. "This is the way in."

Tecna was able to track everyone until she lost signal. "Oh, they've gone in. I've lost video feed." Tecna said to Musa and Flora. "I hope I can keep in geosensor contact."

Further into the cave, Sky was leading the way with a light. "Sky, I know you want to save batteries, but give us some light back here." Stella complained. "We cant see a thing." Suddenly Stella falls to the ground. "That's it, I've had it. I'll deal with it myself." She then goes into her fairy form. "Scepter, give us light."

"Well, I think I liked it better before." said Bloom.

"I'm fifty-fifty on this one." said Rose.

"At least I can see where we're going." Stella said.

"But now, we're a beacon for the monsters." said Sky.

"Uh, guys, I don't know what that is, but lets get moving." said Stella.

The others ran until they've reached a set of doors. "I remember this gate, but it was open before." said Aisha.

"Its locked." said Sky.

"Leave it to me." said Stella and fires sun magic at the lock.

"No good. The gate absorbs magic." said Bloom. "Our enemy thought of everything."

"AAAAHHHH!" screamed Rose, running towards the door, her bo over her head.

"Watch out." said Orion. "Angry Rose coming through."

Rose hits the door with her bo, only for martial arts weapon to break. "My….my….." Rose said as it fell apart.

"Oh Rose." said Aisha as Rose turn towards her.

"Whoever this guy is….he owes me a new bo!" shrieked Rose.

"After you beat him up, right?" asked Stella.

"And for kidnapping the pixies?" asked Bloom.

"This is why I love you and adore Stella, Bloom." said Rose. "You both get what I'm feeling right now."

"What about me?" asked Orion, feeling put out.

"You're getting there, cute one." Rose tells him, patting his face.

"Everything except the specialists was turned down." said Brandon. "It maybe protected from spells, but all odds are made to be broken." Suddenly, the twins heard something behind them, causing both of them to turn around.

"Guys, we've got company." said the twins.

Back at Alfea, Timmy and Riven arrived. "We're back. So how's the mission going, guys?" Timmy asked.

"A bunch of unknown signals are closing in on them from all sides down there." Tecna tells him. "We're going to warn Faragonda."

"We're right behind you." said Timmy.

Back in the cave, Rose had her fists up while the boys were trying to figure out how to get the door opened. "Brandon, maybe you can open it with Riven's lock pick." said Sky.

"No, I'm going to blow this thing open." Brandon told him.

"Are you insane?" asked Orion. "That could bring the whole cave down on us!"

"Relax, Orion. I've got it all figured out. A little explosion never hurt anyone, right?" asked Brandon then turns to Bloom, Rose and Aisha. "Girls, buy me some time!"

"Its up to us." said Bloom and Rose.

"Lets transform." suggested Aisha.

"You mean you're a…." they asked.

"Of course I am." she said and all three girls transform into their fairy forms.

Everyone but Brandon were attacking the shadow creatures. "Take this!" shouted Bloom.

"And this!" added Rose. Both girls send fire magic but the shadow creatures absorbed it.

"No effect whatsoever." said Bloom.

"Now I wish that my bo hadn't broken." Rose said.

"In that case, I'll just have to enlighten them." said Stella. "Girls, shut your eyes."

Following Stella's advice, they closed their eyes as Stella shines a bright light. "Good work, Stella." Bloom praised as the shadow creatures start to melt away in the ground.

"Take cover!" Brandon called out as he was about to detonate. An explosion occurred and breaks the door. "All right."

"Watch out, there's more of them." shouted the twins.

"Come on, this way!" shouted Sky and Orion as the former kicks down the door.

"Hurry! Shut the gates!" cried Aisha as the shadow creatures came after them.

"Don't let up, you two." said Brandon as he takes a stab at one shadow creature's leg.

"They're still trying to get through." Aisha said, then starts to create something with her magic. "Stand back!"

She then starts to seal up the gate with her magic. "What are you doing?" Sky asked.

"You're basically trapping us in here." said Orion.

"Its magic glue." said Aisha. "Brandon, watch out."

"Hurry up, Aisha." said Sky and Orion as she uses magic glue to cover the doors.

"Good job, Aisha." Bloom said.

"Its good to have you on our team." said Sky.

"Its more than just that." Rose said.

"She's fantastic." added Orion.

"Thanks." said Aisha as Sky helps her up.

"All right, lets go." said the twins. "That won't hold them back forever."

Stella led the way, using her scepter as light. "See? Forget about the clunky flashlights." said Stella. "My scepter is the only way to light up a room."

"You may be the light of my life, but a good flashlight saved me more than once." Brandon said to Stella. "Aisha, are you sure this is the right way?"

"I don't get it." said Aisha. "We should have reached the crystals by now."

"Crystals?" asked Brandon.

"Sky? Orion?" said the twins. "Wait, Sky, Orion." Both of the twins were getting weak and dragging behind the others. "Help us." The others were shocked as the twins fell to the ground.

"Bloom!"

"Rose!"

The two brothers ran towards the twins as Brandon hears Stella groan. "Stella, what's going on?" asked Brandon.

"We cant stand up." said the twins as the light of Stella's scepter goes out.

"Stella! Stella!" said Brandon as Orion and Sky turned on their flashlights.

"Bloom, is everything all right?" asked Sky.

"Rose, speak to me." said Orion.

"Yes, but…but our powers are so weak." said Bloom.

"Bloom and I feel drained." Rose groaned.

"What just happened to us?" Stella asked as the boys helped them up.

"You transformed an hour ago and been in fairy mode too long." Aisha explained. "I guess this doesn't just happen to the fairies from Andros."

"And our powers?" asked Bloom and Rose.

"You'll be fine." said Aisha. "Just lay off the magic for a while. Now let's keep moving. We have to find the Pixies."

In his throne room, the Shadow Knight was spying on them. "She's a stubborn one." he said to himself. "All right. We'll just see how long that lasts."

In the cave, Aisha finally sees something sticking out of the cavern walls. "At last, the crystals. Yes!" shouted Aisha as she ran past Brandon. "Its not far now, come on let's go. It's at the end of one of these tunnels. Let's go down this one first."

"Aisha, wait for us." Bloom called out. "Where are you going?"

"I'll go down that way." Brandon said. "I'll catch up in a sec."

Aisha went down her tunnel, only to end up in a bigger cavern with more crystals. "Wow, its goes on forever." she said.

"Finally, we made it." said the twins as they and Stella caught up with her.

"Down there, look." Aisha said, pointing to another ledge that shows Brandon.

"Hey!" Brandon said, looking up. "Girls, all these tunnels are connected. No matter which one we take, we end up out here."

"Brandon! We really shouldn't let ourselves get separated you know?" said Aisha.

"Huh?" Brandon turns around as a shadow creature walks towards him.

"Brandon, watch out!" shouted Aisha as he takes out his sword. She then goes to Brandon in her fairy form and helps him out, only for her to get stuck to the wall by one of the creatures. "Help! I'm stuck!"

"Aisha!" they shouted.

"You ready?" Stella asked.

"Born ready." said Rose.

"Magic Winx!"

Suddenly, they couldn't transform into their fairy forms. "Oh no, its not working!" said Stella. "Brandon! Watch out!"

"Come and get it!" said Brandon, his sword drawn. As the shadow creature got closer, he swings his sword to the ground, slicing the shadow creature. The ground starts to crumble beneath him.

"Brandon, no." gasped Stella as she watches Brandon to fall to his doom. "Brandon!"

"Stella!" shouted the twins as Sky and Orion held them back while Stella goes after him.

"Brandon!" screamed Stella, jumping after him.

"Stella!" screamed the twins.

"No!" said Rose as she and Bloom wanted to go after their best friend.

"Oh no!" gasped Bloom as Orion pulls Rose to him.

"Stella!" the twins screamed again. "No!"
