I know it's not right to start a new story without finishing the others, but I have a good feeling about this one. It will start in the end of Season 4 and follow season 5. Let it be clear that some things will be similar to teh show Once Upon a Time, because that's where I got my inspiration from. However, I'll be adapting the idea to Winx and also add in my own twists. I hope you all enjoy and tell me what you think in your reviews.

It was a beautiful night, with shining stars in the cloudless dark blue sky and fireflies flying around. Bright and colorful lights came from the disco ball placed on the roof of the Frutti Music Bar as many people danced and talked. A table was set with many delicious smoothies and some snacks for the guests at the party.

The owner of the bar, Rick, sat with his wife and daughter in a table near the balcony as they laughed together. After nearly 10 years, the family was finally together and they were enjoying each other's company. Roxy felt happier than she had ever remembered feeling and she smiled at her parents, happy to finally be at peace. For the past few months she had entered a whole new world of magic, fairies and wizards and she was glad to have this night as only a normal girl.

On the other side of the bar, one of the said fairies sat alone as she watched her best friends dance happily with their partners. Aisha had a sad look on her face, which was understandable considering that it had only been a week since she had lost her fiancée, Nabu. The intelligent and brave wizard had sacrificed himself to save them all and Aisha missed him more than anything. They were in love and to be married when he was suddenly gone. Tears fell from her eyes as she remembered the moment she lost him forever.

They were in the middle of the fight against the wizards. The portal they had opened had destroyed the lives of many fairies and the winx were trying to save them. Suddenly, Nabu started walking towards it.

"Nabu, where are you going?" Helia, who was closer to him, asked. Aisha heard him and she flew away from Gantlos and towards him.

"The portal. I have to close it." He said seriously and Aisha couldn't help but notice how brave he looked, but there was fear in his eyes.

"Wait! That's way too dangerous." She tried to reason with him, but it was no use. He was determined to undo the spell and even when Tecna reminded him that he would need an extremely powerful object to do so and Aisha suggested they used the white circle, he said that his staff was powerful enough to absorb all the dark magic. And before anyone could stop him, he started using all his strength to undo the dark spell.

" No, Nabu!" Aisha screamed, but he was too busy to hear her. Flora came to her side and held her as they all watched and prayed that Nabu's plan worked. It did and the spell was undone, but the wizard wasn't looking good. He fell to the ground once it was over and Aisha jumped out of Flora's arms and ran to him. She held him in his arms and attempted not to cry.

"Did it work? Did I do it?" He asked weakly as he looked at Aisha.

"Yes, you did it." She smiled as she felt proud of him for being so brave.

"We have to help him before it's too late." Tecna said, but no one had any ideas on what to do. It was unfortunate that they forgot Bloom had healing powers, but by the time the fairy of the dragon flame remembered it, it was too late.

"Nabu, please, don't leave me." Aisha begged as tears fell on her face. She knew it was inevitable, but she just couldn't believe she was actually going to lose him.

"I'll never leave you, Aisha. Wherever you are, whenever it is, I'll always be with you. These eyes mustn't cry. I love you." And then he was gone. Aisha screamed and cried, still holding him. Her friends stood behind her, some crying and some too shocked to move. That day, she lost the man she loved and that left a whole in her heart that would never be fulfilled.

She felt so much pain and sorrow that not even her best friend could comfort her, and Flora was an expert when it came to comforting people.

Speaking of the nature fairy, she too sat alone in a corner. She wasn't as sad as Aisha, though Nabu's death had shaken her, she was more worried. Weeks previously she had been told something that, at first, she had not believed, but now she was starting to think it might come true. She hadn't told anyone of the words that had been spoken to her, not wanting her friends to worry when they already had so much on their plates. But Astrid's warnings haunted her mind that night.

Three Weeks Earlier…

Flora found herself back to her home planet much earlier than expected; after all she was supposed to stay on earth with the others until their mission to defeat the Wizards of the Black Circle was finished. She had been surprised to receive a letter not from her parents, as she would expect, but from Astrid, the Sage of Limphea. She hadn't understood why the Sage would want to speak with her, but she could not refuse such a request.

She was greeted by the citizens as she reached the Sage's sanctuary, many of them asked for her autograph since she was famous for saving the Magical Dimension a few times. Always a bit shy, Flora didn't like receiving all the attention, but she granted the autographs for her fans anyways. After that, she told the guards why she was there and she was allowed to enter the beautiful cave where Astrid lived.

"Welcome to my sanctuary, fairy of nature." The sage said as she opened her arms wide as if to embrace Flora. The sage looked beautiful with her long pink hair in its usual bun and a dark green and pink dress. Her green eyes looked at Flora with compassion and a bit of worry. The fairy of nature was nervous and anxious as she slowly walked towards the older woman and then keeled in front of her as a sign of respect.

"My lady. I appreciate the invitation, but I desire to know why have you called me here."Flora politely said and the Sage simply laughed.

"I knew that would be your first question when you got here. I need to talk to you about something of great importance." Flora already guessed that, a talk with the Sage could only mean something important had happened or would happen.

"What is it?"She asked, curiously. The Sage started walking around the cave, Flora sensed she was tense.

"As I'm sure you already know, I was granted a gift long ago, which was the reason why I was elected Sage of Limphea." Not everyone knew of this story, but being the Guardian Fairy of Limphea, Flora was aware.

"The gift to see the future. Yes, I know about it." Such a gift was uncommon even amongst magical creatures.

"Well, such a gift can be a blessing or a curse. Most of the time, I feel blessed to be able to prevent horrible things that might happen in the future. However, in this case, I'm afraid there's nothing anyone can do." Her voice shook at the end and Flora looked at her worriedly.

"I'm not sure I understand."The fairy of nature questioned.

"I've been having visions recently, horrible visions of the nearby future." Her blood ran cold and she felt scared. If the Sage asked her to be there, that meant that whatever was in those visions was related to her. What horrible things would happen to her?

"I'm guessing the reason you asked me here is because those visions speak of me." Her voice trembled as she awaited confirmation from the older woman.

"Yes. You appeared in some of my visions, as well as your friends."This was definitely not good.

"I'm afraid to ask, but what have you seen?"

"I saw many things, but amongst them, there was an ancient prophecy. One day, not far from today, the darkness will be released and the Magical Dimension will have to face it's greatest enemy once again..."Flora interrupted her, confused.

"What do you mean by the darkness will be released? What darkness?"

"I'm not sure, all I know is that it will be released and one of you will be in great danger. The only way you'll be able to stop the darkness is if someone's to contain it. But that will implicate in an unbreakable curse. That's why I must give you this warning, fairy of nature: when the time comes, you'll have to make a choice and I urge you to think about what's most important." Flora was terrified by all she had heard, the last things she or the winx needed was another enemy. She then thanked the Sage for the information given and left the cave with the warning still in mind. When she went back to Earth and saw her friends having fun at the Frutti Music Bar, she decided not to tell them what she had learned, at least not right away. She chose to wait until their battle was finished.

Well, now that they were celebrating their victory against the wizards, she had to tell them. Even if it meant ruining everyone's night she knew that what Astrid told her was important. She looked around and saw Bloom and Sky and Stella and Brandon dancing together. They seemed so happy and relieved that it was finally over, but little did they knew, it had barely began.

She stood up and had a determined look on her face as she looked at her friends. Before she could take one step, though, Helia appeared in front of her. His blue eyes stared into her own as he had a smile on his face.

"Hey, there. Is everything okay?"He asked her once he noticed the look on her face. She looked back at him and felt guilty because she should be spending this night with him, celebrating together. She knew that he was worried about her because of the distance that she had kept from him ever since she had learned about the prophecy. So she decided that telling the truth could wait a bit longer. In the end, that was a fatal mistake.

"Yes, I'm just tired." It wasn't exactly a lie, she was indeed exhausted.

"I think that we're all a bit tired after this past few days."A serious look came to his face, probably remembering Naby's death, she thought. It was no secret that Helia, Riven and Nabu had become really close after the other two helped Riven win Musa back. Now that the wizard was gone, both specialists were feeling the worst of all of them, with the exception of Aisha. The serious look quickly disappeared and was replaced with another charming smile. "So, would you care for a dance?"He asked and extended his hand towards her. "I would be honored."She gladly took it and they walked towards the dance floor.

They danced like so many times before, but there was no denying that something was different. Her mind was too distracted by all the horrible things that would happen in the future and she couldn't shake the feeling that something was very wrong. Seeing her so worried, Helia decided to distract her, knowing she would tell him what it was when she was ready.

"So, what are your plans for this summer?" He asked her, already having plans for the both of them in mind.

"I don't know. I haven't thought much about it."She answered and he was happy to hear it.

"Well, I'm glad you haven't made plans, because I have a surprise for you." She looks at him curiously.

"A surprise? What it is?"She tried to appear excited, but the truth was she was sick of surprises after her last visit to Limphea.

"I thought that it might be good for us to get away for a while, especially after everything that's happened."

"What do you mean by get away?"

"I booked a reservation for us at the Resort Realm. I thought it would be a good time for us to spend some time together." She looked at him surprised and happy. How was it possible that he knew her so well, knew exactly what she needed?

"Have I mentioned that you are the best?"She asked him with a growing smile.

"I don't think you have."He playfully said and then added "But seriously, did you like the idea?"

"I loved it. I can't wait to spend more time with you."

"Neither can I. I love you, Flora." They had been together for two years, so it wasn't the first time he had told her that he loved her. But every time he said it, she felt so happy she could fly.

"I love you too, so much. Thanks for everything." They leaned in for a kiss and her arms wrapped around his neck as he pulled her closer. It was as if the whole world disappeared and there was only them, happily in each other's arms. They were so oblivious to everything else that didn't even notice when all the lights went out. A loud scream brought them back to reality and they pulled apart unwillingly.

Suddenly, everyone started to freak out and chaos installed in the once quiet bar. A loud voice was heard, it was Miss Faragonda. "Everyone, please, calm down. Everything's alright." The headmistress tried to calm down the fairies, specialists and humans who were there. Once silence was made, she asked Stella to create some light. Soon, the whole bar was illuminated by a soft glow and Flora could see many terrified faces, mostly human's. However, her eyes, just as everyone else's were taken to Bloom.

The fairy of the dragon flame was definitely not alright. Horror was written on her face as she was trapped under what seemed to be black vines. Flora's mind immediately went to Astrid's words. The darkness will be released. Could that thing be the darkness that the prophecy spoke of?

" Help!" Bloom screamed again, seeming to be in pain. Sky, who was close to her, tried to reach her. "I don't think that's a good idea." Tecna warned him as she stood beside Timmy in a corner, but it was no use. As soon as the blonde haired prince reached Bloom, there was a powerful energy and he was thrown off to the other side of the room. The energy unbalanced many people and Flora felt Helia wrap his arms around her, trying to shield her from it.

But she was barely paying attention to him, her mind was on what she should do. She was terrified for Bloom, because she realized that the fairy of the dragon flame was the one who "would be in great danger", as Astrid said. Then she remembered: The only way to defeat the darkness is to contain it. But how would one contain the darkness? She asked herself. Another look at Bloom and she knew that she had to act, fast. Her friend was pale and though she had stopped screaming, pain was clear on her face.

It was then that the answer came to her and though she wasn't sure what she was doing, Flora did it anyway. She used her magic to perform a spell that she didn't even know. It was as if someone had possessed her, her friends looked at her in concern. "Flora, what are you doing?" Musa asked scared and then it was Tecna "That's definitely not a good idea!" But she didn't listen to them. The darkness that was trapping Bloom suddenly surrounded her, but she didn't feel any pain. "No!" She heard Helia scream, but it seemed to be so far away.

Her friends watched in horror as she nearly disappeared from behind the darkness and suddenly, it was gone. She stumbled a bit once it was over and turned back to look at them. She wanted to reassure them that everything was alright, that the darkness was gone, but that was a lie. She felt different, her mind was heavy and her head was hurting. "Flora?" Helia asked worriedly and she looked at him. She felt unable to say anything. She decided to avoid his looks and stared at her friends instead. Stella and Brandon were holding each other, as well as (surprisingly) Riven and Musa. Bloom was being held by Aisha as Sky was still knocked down unconscious. Tecna and Timmy stood near Miss Faragonda who looked absolutely terrified. Her face was devoid of color and her eyes were widened. Her voice shook as she spoke.

" What have you done?"

Okay, this is the end of this chapter. What did you think? I have a good feeling about this story, I have already planned it in my head, but I only have this chapter written. The next chapter should be up next weekend.
