(Jasmine's POV begins)
Lots of things have been going on in our group! Erin earned her Enchantix yesterday, Nicki has moved in with us, and today we're going to meet a girl who Miss Farragonda really wants us to get along with.
After everyone had gotten dressed, and eaten breakfast, we all walked to Miss Farragonda's office. This time, I took the seat in front of her desk, and everyone else stood.
"Good morning, girls." Miss Farragonda says.
"Good morning." we all say in unison.
"Now, I know you've been wondering about this young lady I told you about. I assumed you all have told Erin?"
Some heads nod, to say yes.
"Good. Now I will introduce her to you." "Lunace! Come in darling." Miss Farragonda says sweetly.
A girl who looks about 17 comes through the office doors. Her skin color is peach, and her hair is blonde with pastel blue highlights. She's wearing a moon-colored high-low dress and pastel blue sandals to go with it. She looks a little shy.
"Girls, this is Lunace." Miss Farragonda says. "Lunace, I'll have each girl introduce themselves. Marisa, why don't you start off first?"
(Nicole's POV begins)
As everyone is introducing themselves, I can't help but to stare at this girl. I have a feeling that she might be from the Moon Realm, Solaria's sister planet. I wonder if she's a princess like I am..
Erin nudges me in the arm. "Nicole, it's time to introduce yourself." she whispers.
"Oh, oh right!" I say. "Hi! I'm Nicole, Fairy of the Shining Sun. I'm the Princess of Solaria, and Stella, the queen, is my mom. Nice to meet you!"
"Nice to meet you, Nicole!" she says. She also takes a small curtsey. "It's a honor to be front of the princess of our sister realm."
I knew it! She had to be from the Moon Realm!
After the last person introduces themself, (which was Nicki), Lunace introduces herself.
"Hi. As you all already know, I'm Lunace. I'm working to become a guardian fairy just like you guys. I'm the Fairy of the Moon, and I'm from the Moon Realm, Solaria's sister planet. And although it may look like I'm the princess of my realm, I'm not. I don't think I could handle all the responsibilities anyway."
Well I wasn't right about her being a princess. But still, it's great to know someone from my sister realm.
Miss Farragonda then dismisses to go to class. I catch up with Lunace, who has walked in front of us.
"So, how are things back in the Moon Realm?" I ask.
"Things have been okay. I wish things were better. There have been conflicts between the citizens and the kingdom."
"Oh, after all these years, there are still problems?"
"Yeah. It's ridiculous isn't?"
Back in the Moon Realm, people have never really liked the government and how things were run, so the people threw rebellions. They still must have those rebellions today.
Then all of a sudden, Lunace and I spot a figure coming toward us. I'm about to throw a beam of sunlight at the shadow, but then it emerges and the girl looks out of breath. She runs over to Jasmine.
"Princess Jasmine! There's an emergency -back at Andros! Skullen has escaped from Andros's imprisonment! Queen Aisha needs your help, as well as your friends!!"
"Okay Bernice, we'll help, but how do we get to Andros?"
"Don't worry, I'll teleport you all." says Bernice.
"Another question. How come you're all out of breath? If you teleported yourself, that shouldn't happen."
"I went around the entire school looking for you, and I ran most of the time. I was so out of breath that I had to stop. Then I saw these shadows, and I figured it must be you and your friends."
"Okay, enough talk we need to get to Andros." Bernice says in a stern tone.
Out of her fingertips comes water. A blueish-greenish sparkling ocean water that looks so beautiful! The water, as it surrounds us, becomes stronger, and look more like ocean waves. The minute Bernice raises her right hand to the sky, the water surrounds us like a vortex. I look down to the ground, and my body begins to disappear to. We're gone in a flash.
(Jasmine's POV begins)
Within seconds, we're on the balcony of the kingdom of Andros. And it doesn't take long to spot Skullen. He's enormous!
"Is that Skullen?" Nicki asks in a state of shock, "that thing is HUGE!!"
(Skullen is somewhat of a crosspath of water and a tree. I know it sounds weird, but that's what he is. Half of him is made of water, and the other half is made of tree bark. His face is one that frightens me sometimes- his eyes and mouth are both angry. His arms are made out of pure water, and since he was made from Andros's oceans, the rest of his body is made of water, and connects with the water. And Skullen is huge. Tall and wide, the tiniest thing of all tiny things would be able to see him.)
"I know." Bernice says. "Skullen was one of Andros's greatest enemies. A sea monster, known for destroying anything in his path, it was told to destroy Andros, and end its life once and for all."
"But thanks to your mom's courageous efforts, she trapped the monster, and sent him to an eternal bound to the depths of Andros's oceans."
"Wow!" Erin puts her hand on my shoulder, "your mom is so brave!"
I smile, I guess that's were I get my character trait of bravery from: my mom.
"How did Skullen escape if he was bound to the oceans of Andros for all time?" Marisa asks.
"Either he was able to break free of imprisonment, or someone broke him free. But I don't know who could break him free. To break out of an imprisonment like that, you have to enherit strong magical powers."
Erin and I both get that same look on our faces at the same time. "The Trixsters!"
"Huh?" everyone else says in confusion.
"I know this kinda doesn't make any sense, but I'm pretty sure the Trixsters had something to do with this. For one, their last couple of attacks have been unsuccessful, because of us winning against them, which believe me, is a good thing. Maybe this is their way of waking up, and saying 'we're done with these baby attacks, and now we're serious.' Guys, they want to destroy all of us. They're not kidding around anymore." Erin explains.
"Another thing, the Trixsters aren't strong enough to break open an imprisonment. I mean, they are strong, but in this case, all of them are weak. They must have inherited someone kind of power-up or magical energy. " Jasmine continues.
"Well, you all have the stronger magical energy, the Trixsters may have been able to break open the imprisonment, but I know you can stop them and send Skullen back to his imprisonment. If Queen Aisha believes in all of you, I believe in all of you." A confident Bernice says.
"Let's go Magic Winx!" Nicole, Nicki, and I yell.
"Let's go Enchantix!" Marisa, Mikayla, and Erin yell.
(Lunace's POV begins)
Miss Farragonda told me about the girls who had earned their Enchantix already. Now I know who they are. Mikayla, Marisa, and Erin all look so beautiful in their Enchantix forms! Hopefully I will have my Enchantix form soon, but I don't think that will be until I'm 18, probably.
"Hey, Lunace! Let's see your fairy form!" Nicole says.
"Alright." I say with a smile.
"Lunace! Transform!"
(Lunace's Magic Winx outfit is a sparkling pastel blue tube top, a sparkling pastel blue mini-skirt, pastel blue strappy sandals, light blue arm cuffs, and same blue pastel wings.)
"Your basic fairy form outfit is beautiful Lunace!" Erin says.
"Thanks! I have to admit, this outfit really is pretty!" I say with a smile, as I look my outfit.
"Now to Skullen!! Let's go!" Jasmine says.
•••
(Jasmine's POV begins)
We all fly at the speed of light, we almost reach Skullen, and you can guess who's in our way.
"Do you mind?" Erin says, "we're trying to save the world here."
She begins to fly off, but then Elaine creates something that looks like a plasma wall, so that way Erin can't get through.
"Three times we were unsuccessful. THREE TIMES!!" Amy yells.
"First, you (she points at Marisa) and that attack on Alfea, saving that girl's life, and almost ending yours. We thought you were done for!!" Electra says.
"Then come to find out you earned that En-en- en whatever- and that you survived that hit! Then there's the flower fairy who earned her power up after saving your aunt from that vortex. That vortex should have been the end of you! We should have never seen you again!" Elaine continues.
"And then you- Miss Erin- the one who sacrificed herself for her sister-even after that argument you both had."
"Wait-wait-wait.. How do know about that argument? Both Numera and I we're all alone, and we made up."
"Oh Erin, we were there, watching the two of you. Invisible and silent." Amy begins to laugh.
I see Erin's face grow angry.
"Even after that whole ordeal-you saved her from the lightning trap, and earned your Enchantix. We're done with playing the nice girl route! It's time to show you what we're really made of!"
"Setting Skullen free was the perfect way to show you were not kidding around anymore. Thanks to a temporary upgrade in power from our mothers, we were able to set him free, and release his wrath on the people who imprisoned him. Oh, and by people, that means you all, and mainly her. She points at Jasmine." Amy finishes.
"Now to get the ball rolling." Elaine says.
"Confusion Chaos!" she yells, as black and purple energy waves shoot at us.
We all dodge the attack, like a fly who dodges a fly swatter.
"Morphix Energy!" I yell, and thousands tiny pink spheres form, and covers Elaine in the substance.
She is stuck tight in the Morphix until, she uses her right hand to form a dark energy sphere, and break free.
This is going to be tough. But I shouldn't worry. I'm Jasmine. Princess of Andros, and daughter of the great Aisha.
•••
(Marisa's POV begins)
"Harmony Blast!" I yell, and it hits Skullen right in the eye. A noise- a deep, dark, and creepy noise, begins to come out of Skullen. He begins to advance his way toward me, but Mikayla comes to the rescue.
"Vine Trap!" she says, and vines surround the two of us in cage, kind of like a barrier.
Skullen tries to break his way through the vines, by slashing them with his hands. Mikayla and I strengthen the vines in two different ways. Mikayla holds her hands on the vines, while I release two pink spheres from the palm of my hand, and the magical energy from the spheres, help the vines.
"Where's Erin?" I ask. I'm beginning to sweat from holding these vines.
"Outside of the trap." Mikayla responds with anguish beginning to rise in her voice. "Hopefully, she's not in as much trouble as we are."
•••
(Erin's POV Begins)
"Where are Mikayla and Marisa?" I wonder out loud. I look over at where Skullen is, and I figure that's where they must be.
"Enchantix Cybercodes!" I yell, and cybercodes come out of my hands, and hit Skullen from the back.
"Who did that?" Skullen says in a dark voice.
"Me, ugly face!" I yell. Skullen automatically turns around, and this time makes his way toward me.
"Mikayla! Marisa! If you can hear me, go and help the others!" I yell.
"No way!" Marisa yells back. "We're helping you, no matter what it takes!"
The vines from Mikayla's trap, break away, revealing the two of them.
"Get ready!" Mikayla confidently says.
All three of us release spells at the time.
•••
(Jasmine's POV Begins)
"Plasma World!" I yell. The spell is aimed at Electra, and she dodges it.
"Perfect Storm!" she yells, as lightning comes out of her hand. I dodge the attack too. No way am I falling in this water.
"Moon Shine!" Lunace yells, as she throws a moon colored sphere toward Elaine. Elaine does get hit, but at the same time she was able to dodge the attack.
"I'm done with all of this! Sisters, let's end them! ALL OF THEM!" Amy says.
Each of them begin to grow darkly. Elaine a dark purple, Electra a dark red, and Amy a dark blue.
Just as they begin to strike, a pink substance formed into a rope, surrounds the Trixsters. The rope swings them around and around and the Trixsters scream like little kids. Finally the rope releases them, and they fly backwards.
We all turn around to see who helped us.
•••
(Jasmine's POV begins)
"Mom!" I say, as I fly over to hug her. She's in her Bloomix form, and still looks beautiful as ever!
She hugs me back once I reach her. "Oh Jasmine! It's so good to see you again my little warrior!" Little warrior was the nickname my mom called me when I was younger, as she stills calls me that to this day.
(Lunace's POV begins)
I feel so happy for Jasmine getting to see her mom again! I wish I could have that feeling once again. My parents died a long time ago. My mom from a disease that no one could cure, and then my dad who bravely fought in a battle between the Moon Realm and its citizens. I was taken in by the Moon Realm's defense department, because my dad worked with the people there almost everyday of his life. I'm grateful to them.
While I reminisce on my thoughts, I feel someone tap me on my shoulder. "It's nice to see you again, Lunace."
I turn around to face the chief officer of defense from the Moon Realm. We both embrace in a hug, and my eyes begin to well up with tears. Although it's been only a day since I left her, and the Moon Realm, I still miss her dearly.
I rise up, and dry my tears. "What are you doing here, Crescena? I though you were at home."
"Well, I'm here at Andros trying to enlist the help of Aisha. If we have another realm's help in these rebellions, I think we can end them permenantly."
"How'd you know I was here?"
"Well the thing is, I didn't know you were here. Neither did Aisha know that her daughter was here too. While we were inside talking to each other about the rebellions, all of a sudden we heard noises. Deep, dark noises. Aisha, sensing that something was wrong, transformed into her Bloomix, and with her strength, used her Morphix power to help me fly. When we finally got outside, that's when we recongized you all, and the Trixsters."
"Wow. But with all that aside, it's really good to see you again." I say smiling.
"It's good to see you too, beautiful." she says smiling.
"Hey everyone, I hate to ruin this perfect moment, but we've got company, and they aren't happy." Nicki points to the Trixsters who have freed themselves from Aisha's trap, and look even angrier than ever.
"This is it! The end of Andros!" Amy yells.
Amy, Electra, and Elaine converge their powers together, and create a powerful whirlpool. The strength of it could suck all of us into it with just one move. But it doesn't go for all of us.
Aisha gets sucked in first.
"Mom!" Jasmine yells, then she gets sucked in too!
And then last but not least, Crescena gets sucked in as well.
*****
"Aisha! Jasmine!" Nicole yells.
"And the other woman who was with them!" Nicki says. "Oh, what do we do now?"
And without another thought, I fly straight into the whirlpool.
"Lunace!" Nicole yells. "Lunace! Come back! You're gonna get hurt!!"
Her voice begins to drown out as I near the whirlpool, once I reach, I create a small pastel blue sphere, and swallow it whole. This will enable me to breathe.
Then I dive straight in.
*****
(Jasmine's POV begins)
There's a powerful whirlpool trying to suck my mom, a lady who's with us, and myself into a watery grave. I hold my head up to the sky and try to gasp for air.
Then, all of a sudden I see Lunace emerge from the outside of the whirlpool into where we are. How did she get in here?
"Don't worry! I'm going to get you all out!" she yells.
"Moon Rise!" she yells, and a white surface carries all three of us to the top, it's easier to breathe now, but what about Lunace!
"Lunace!!" I yell as we rise out of the whirlpool. "Lunace!" "Luuunaceee!!"
******
(Lunace's POV begins)
I try and find a way to escape, but there's no way out. I had a feeling this would happen, but I had to save everyone. If I didn't they probably wouldn't be here right now.
I feel the whirlpool suck me in deeper, and deeper, and I feel as if I'm about to reach oblivion, and never return.
"I'd rather die in this whirlpool, than to lose my friends." I say as I get nearer, and nearer to the end.
Then all of a sudden, a pastel blue glow comes all over me.
I stare all around at my body in panic. "Wha-wha-what's going on?"
(Lunace's Enchantix outfit is a one shoulder pastel blue sparkling bra top, with a short length of dark blue ribbon on the shoulder area and a pastel blue mini-skirt with a small dark blue belt.
She wears pastel blue jeweled barefoot sandals and the jewel in the middle is a mini moon. She earns pastel blue sparkling gloves. Her wings are ample butterfly style like everyone else. There is pastel blue lining on the outside, and it's yellow on the inside, and there are pastel blue and dark blue jewels accent her wings. Her fairydust container is a short necklace, fairydust is contained in a vial shaped like the moon, with lots of colors. Her blonde hair with pastel blue highlights grows down to reach her ankles. And to end our new fairy's outfit, Lunace earns a pastel blue mini tiara.)
I'm shocked. I recognize everything, from the sparkling gloves, to the barefoot jeweled sandals. I've earned my Enchantix.
"Wow!" I say in amazement. "Well, now that I have my Enchantix, I know for sure I can stop all of this."
"Fairydust!!"
(Lunace's mini-moon vial disappears into beautiful sparkles. She draws the shape of a crescent to form her fairydust.)
Fairydust begins to surround all around me, and I feel powerful.
I am powerful.
I rise up out of the whirlpool, and with one sweeping motion, surrounded by fairydust, the whirlpool returns to its calmness again.
•••
(Nicole's POV begins)
Lunace is okay! And by the looks of it, by saving Jasmine, Aisha, and the other woman, she earned her Enchantix.
"Way to go Lunace!" Nicki cheers.
"You were awesome Lunace!!" I say, as I put an arm around her shoulder.
"Not only that, you saved our lives Lunace! And by doing so you earned your Enchantix! Congratulations!" Jasmine says with a smile.
I see tears in Crescena's eyes. "Lunace.. I..." she begins to say.
I remove my shoulder from Nicole's arm, and hug Crescena. "You don't have to say anything Crescena. I couldn't let you be gone from exsistence. The same with Jasmine and Aisha. You mean a lot to mean Crescena.." (the tears begin to come at this point)
I hug her tightly and cry in her shoulders. Then she cries too, and now we're both crying together. Then after about a minute of tears, we both dry them, and compose ourselves.
"So," I say as I sniffle, "does anyone know where those Trixsters are?"
"I think they're over by Skullen now, dealing with Marisa, Mikayla, and Erin." Jasmine says, as she points to Skullen.
"Then there's no time to lose, girls. Let's go!"
•••
(Marisa's POV begins)
Although we are strong enough, fighting against the Trixsters is no easy task. Mikayla, Erin, and I have all been hit from a spell at least twice, and none of our spells can work on our own.
"Wait! None of the spells can work all alone!!" I say to myself.
"Erin! Mikayla! We've been doing the wrong thing this whole time. Let's all try a convergence spell!" I say to my friends.
"But it's our first time dealing with an Enchantix convergence.. Do you think we'll be able to do this?" Mikayla asks in worry.
"Although it does sound a little irrational, I'm pretty sure we'll be able to handle it." Erin assuringly says.
The three of us come together and hold each other's hands, and lower our heads. We need maximum concentration.
"You all give up already?" Amy says as Electra and Electra laugh. "I thought you fairies never gave up!!" Amy laughs.
"We never give up!" I yell. "Now, you guys!"
"Enchantix Convergence!" The three of us yell. Magical swirls come out of Mikayla and Erin's hands, while a glowing light emerges from my body.
(Elaine's POV begins)
"How are they doing this?" I ask as I my blind my eyes. "They haven't even done an Enchantix convergence before!"
"I don't know how. But they will be stopped one way or another." Amy says through gritted teeth.
"What do we do about Skullen?" Electra asks the two of us. Our bodies our beginning to deteriorate, sobmore than likely, we will end up at Cloudtower.
"Don't worry." Amy says with an evil smile. "Once he sees, Aisha, he'll go crazy. They will be done for." Amy says as she begins to laugh. Our bodies are now gone.
•••
(Mikayla's POV begins)
After the Trixsters disappear, we all catch our breath. That took lots of energy from us, but we need to restore that energy.
"Hey, looks like the rest of them have gone to fight Skullen." Erin says.
"Well, let's help them." I say. "They'll need all the help they need."
We fly off to meet the rest of them.
(Lunace's POV begins)
"Enchantix Moon Glow!" I yell, as pastel blue and white glowing spheres hit Skullen.
"Magic Bass Boom!" I hear a familiar voice yell.
"Marisa! Mikayla! Erin!" Nicole says. "Where were all of you?"
"Dealing with those Trixsters." Erin responds. "We took good care of them, and now it's time to put that monster back where he belongs."
"Nature's Chain!" Mikayla yells, as green and pink strings shoot out from her palm. The strings surround and tie Skullen, but he is able to break free within a matter of seconds.
"Water Bolt!!" Aisha yells, as the attack comes raining down on Skullen.
Then all of a sudden, Skullen's eyes come red, and now he looks even angrier than ever.
What's going on?
•••
(Jasmine's POV begins)
What's happening to Skullen? His eyes have turned red, he looks even more angry, and now he seems to be growing bigger.
"Aisha! Aisha! I will destroy you!" Skullen's dark, creepy, echoing voice yells out.
I stare at my mom, frightened. Why does he want to destroy her?
Then, it all comes together.
*flashback*
"Your brave mom, successfully captured Skullen, and sent him into eternal boundment."
*end flashback*
He wants revenge on Aisha for sending him to eternal boundment.
"Guys! We have to protect my mom at all costs. Skullen wants to destroy her because she was the one who sent him to boundment." I say.
"Don't worry we'll protect her." Nicki says.
"Okay, Nicole and Jasmine, come with me. We'll stay by Aisha's side at all times. Now, Mikayla, Erin, Marisa, and Lunace, go ahead and strike first. Since you all have your Enchantix, your hits should be better and stronger than ours." Nicki says, as she lays out her battle plan.
"Enchantix Cyberweb!" Erin yells, and a blue cybercode spider web attaches to Skullen. He grunts, trying to get it off, but Erin's cyberweb refuses to be removed.
"Thunder Crash!" Nicki yells, as silver thunder waves hit Skullen.
Although he can't see, and now is partially deaf, somehow he is able to raise his arm up, and slash a big wave of water all over us. Thank goodness we were able to dodge it.
"Morphix Energy!" I yell, as pink spheres surround Skullen and stick to him. Well, some do and some don't, most he was able to slash away.
"Morphix Cloud!" Aisha yells, as the spell hits Skullen.
Skullen then yells out, he's definitely had enough.
"Oceans of Andros! I command you to end Aisha's life once and for all!"
The waves all of sudden reach to be about 70 feet tall, and then all of a sudden pause, when they reach their height.
Skullen waits for a couple of seconds, and then all the waves make their direction.
The waves head straight for my mom.
"Mom!" I yell out. I push her out of the way, and without enough time to create a barrier, all the waves come crashing down on me. My eyes close, everything goes black and I hit the ocean with a splash.
While floating to the bottom of the ocean, unconscious, Jasmine transforms into her Enchantix.
(She wears a green and pink midriff bra top. The green and pink are mixed into complex designs. She wears the same skirt her mother wore when she earned her Enchantix, except that there are light blue stripes included with the green and pink. She wears pink sparkling gloves, and her jeweled barefoot colored sandals are green- and the jewel in the middle is a green diamond. Her straight brown hair becomes curly, and gains light brown highlights. Her wings are almost like her mom's, except that there are light blue outlingings along with green and pink ones.)
•••
(Aisha's POV begins)
"Oh Jasmine!" I say through tears. I'm on my knees on the sand of shore. "I'm so sorry I let this happen!"
The girls are crying too. They've lost an extremely good friend.
The waves wash up on the shore like the usually do, and when it washes up for about three times, Jasmine ends up right next to me, and has transformed into a completely new person.
"Jasmine! Jasmine, honey wake up! It's mom!" I say as I shake her.
Jasmine begins to cough, and her eyes begin to open. She leans up, and rest her head on her my lap.
•••
(Jasmine's POV begins)
I look at myself from all over.
"I must've earned my Enchantix by the looks of it." I say as I examine by pink gloves, and green and pink skirt.
"Oh Jasmine, honey!" My mom says as she hugs me. "I thought I'd lost you."
"We did too." Mikayla says.
"Enchantix is what saved me I guess." I say, as I stand up.
We all nod our heads.
"Well, today we learned a very important lesson. The Trixsters want to destroy us, and they'll go any length to get what they want." Erin says.
"We have to keep our guards up, from now on." Marisa states.
"Agreed." Nicole says.
"And we have to be ready. This battle is just the beginning. Our next round is coming soon." Nicki says.
END OF CHAPTER NINE
