Leviathan

"Volcanic attack!!" Bloom shot out a combination of pink, orange, yellow, and blue beam of energy towards the Trix out of anger. "Icicle Fury!" Icy shot out icicles that managed to overpower the attack of Bloom. "Nice try, Bloom. But that's not going to work--"


"Light Spectrum!" Stella shot a pink and yellow spiraling beam towards Icy, but before it could hit her, a purple tornado with purple lightnings surrounding it appeared just as Stormy shouted her attack. "Oh no you don't!" Aisha got ready to attack. "Morphix Cage!" 


Before the tornado could do any damage, a pink cage was able to trap it. "Got any better attacks?" Aisha smirked. 


"Oh, we were just getting started. Sisters?" Icy looked at her two siblings and smiled. Darcy and Stormy returned the same look before they all flew away out of the forest. The Winx were just about to follow after them, but all of a sudden there were those footsteps again. This time, much closer than before.


"Guys!" Bloom looked down at the six Scolacians. "Find a safe place to hide! Head back to Alfea if you can. We'll handle this" 


The Scolacians said nothing as they all stared back at the Fire Fairy. They all looked hesitant to leave at first. But Bloom was sure that they should leave. "Go!"


With that the Scolacians reluctantly ran off the direction they came from. The footsteps were getting closer as the Scolacians ran further into the forest. No, the footsteps... they were coming towards the them! The Winx noticed and went into action. Flora, Musa, and Tecna swooped down into the forest to warn the six, while Bloom, Stella, and Aisha flew overhead to find whatever was making those footsteps.


"Come on! Run faster!" Aaron looked back at his friends who were running behind him. They all quicken their pace. "That thing's gonna catch up to us if we stop running!" Aaron looked ahead of him, only to find the three Winx members stop them on their tracks. "That thing's going to catch up to you all if you keep running in that direction!" Musa yelled at them, getting ready to attack anything that comes in as a threat. "You all need to find a way out of this forest, it's too dangerous to stay here!" Flora said, trying to persuade the Scolacians to leave. 


"No! We can't just let you guys fight this monster alone!" Kitchi said worriedly, the other five agreed. Tecna shook her head at them. "No, and besides you guys haven't earned your magic abilities yet. Leave this to us" 


"But we can't just leave--" Kitchi was cut off by Musa. "We've dealt with this before. Don't worry about us. Now go! Save yourselves!"


The Scolacians hesitantly ran away from the three fairies, looking back on the way. The footsteps were approaching, fast. Musa looked up to see Bloom, Stella, and Aisha flying overhead. "It's coming in, girls!" 


"Get ready, Winx!" Bloom said, readying for an attack. The other Winx members did the same. They all turned their attention towards the shaking of the tree branches and the violent shaking of the ground. The Winx, both above the trees, and on the forest grounds got ready to attack. Just as the shaking got to the worst, they all saw a face in the shadows of the tree branches. Stella was the first to notice, and she attacked with instict. 


The pink and yellow spiraling beam shot through the trees. Whatever the thing was, Stella's attack got it. The thing let out an enraged scream from either pain, or anger. This caused the shaking of the ground and tree branches to stop. Lowering their guard down, Bloom, Aisha, and Stella flew down to meet the other three. "Did we get it?" Bloom asked.


Everything was silent now. Stella flew cautiously to where they saw the face of the thing. "Hellooo~? Any monster around here?" She called out. "Stella get back here!" Aisha called out to the blonde. "I think it's gone--"


Before Stella could finish her sentence, a shadow towered over her. "Stella! Watch out!!" Bloom shouted, just as Stella shot up to see a large orange hand slam down to crush her. "Sirius Shield!!" Stella attempted to use her magic as a shield to prevent the hand from slamming down onto her. The Winx gasped in shock. "Oh no, Stella! Hang on! Magical Vine Grab!" Flore summoned thick golden vines to wrap around the large hand. It held the hand in place and seemed to work for only a short time. Stella managed to crawl out while the hand was being held back. She flew back to the Winx and got ready to attack once again.


The hand broke free quick, but that wasn't the problem. When the hand got free, it slammed down onto the ground, creating cracks all around it. Another arm slammed down onto the ground near it, causing the ground to shake. The Winx stared in horror and disbelief as the same face from earlier emerged from the darkness of the shadowy trees. Using its arms as support to stand up, the ground shook even more. The leaves of the trees fell off their branches as the figure rose the treelines. The thing must've stood at least 13 meters high! It was just as high as Alfea! 



Bloom couldn't believe her eyes to what she's seeing. Flora covered her mouth from shock, while Musa and Tecna took a step back in fear. Aisha glared up at the creature, about to attack if it attacks them first. Stella cowered behind the rest of them in fear.


The figure stared down at them, its cold eyes showing no emotion. Its medium length blonde and blue hair swayed in the wind against its gold and red armor, yet muscle-like body. 


"Girls....get ready" Bloom said, not taking her eyes away from the figure. The others nodded their heads. 


It seemed like minutes, with the figure staring down at them with those dead eyes. Bloom narrowed her eyes. "Winx... NOW!" 


"BLOOMIX, CONVERGENCE!!!" The Winx shot out their strongest attack yet at the towering figure. The shot hit the figure right on its face, causing it to quickly put its hands on its face. It let out a growl out of anger. The Winx then flew upwards to avoid being hit by the giant. The creature did something unexpected. It ran, not to where Alfea was, like what the Trix would make it do, but it ran away from the Winx. Further into the forest. When it was far enough, the creature crouched down into the trees, until it could no longer be seen.


The Winx were left dumbfounded. They looked at each other in disbelief before flying back to Alfea. There they saw Ms. Faragonda, Griselda, the Alfean teachers, and the Scolacians.


"Winx! What happened out there!?" The headmistress asked the girl worriedly. The six fairies landed on the ground before they answered her.


"We were strolling around the forest, then all of a sudden, the Trix showed up. Then they just left, but not without leaving us a little surprise..." Bloom first explained. "We made the Scolacians run back here to find safety while we fought the creature" 


"I'm glad you did that, Winx..." The headmistress glanced at the six Scolacians behind her. "That creature must've stood as tall as Alfea! If you girls hadn't made them leave, then could've turned out worse" 


"Are you guys alright?" Flora asked the six students. "Yeah, thanks..." Kitchi responded, rubbing the back of her neck. 


"Well you all should held back inside now. Who knows if that thing is still out there" Griselda pointed at the school doors.

Icy growled in anger as she watched the Winx and Scolacians went back inside Alfea through a magic globe. "Grrr! Selina! You said this monster would destroy them all!" The ice witch glared at the green-haired girl who stood beside her. Selina kept quiet and just looked down. Icy attempted to pulled her hair in frustration but she kept her cool. "Ugh, whatever. I'm getting out of here" She left the room, muttering angrily to herself. Her two sisters followed behind, without saying anything.


Selina looked back up and stared down at the Legendarium. How could it have gone wrong?


She reread the legend in her mind that she used to create the creature from earlier. "On that day, the town expected nothing but total destruction to come. The Leviathans conquered the land of mortals...."


Selina sighed. "These being were supposed to be able to fight without magic... they're even immune to magic! What went wrong?!" The green-haired girl said to herself angrily. She looked over at the magic globe and saw that there was smoke rising up from where the creature has disappeared to. Selina raised an eyebrow but she put no thought into it. It probably wasn't strong enough to last long...
