The Horned Reaper looked down at the prone form of his potential get-out-of-jail-free ticket.
He blinked, blinked again, blinked again.
"WHAT?!" he screamed. "A FAIRY?! I WILL SQUASH THE LITTLE INSECT NOW, YES!"
Bloom was confused. The last she remembered she was fighting the Wizards of the Black Circle when they tricked Queen Morgana and opened the Abyss. She had pulled a fairy out of the Abyss, and then she had... fallen into the Abyss herself!
Bloom quickly opened her eyes and saw only pitch blackness.
'Is this the Abyss I'm in now?' thought Bloom.
Then she realized she was laying face down. She quickly turned over, as much as her wings would allow her to, and looked up. She gasped as she saw a red skinned demon about to impale her with a scythe.
Horny grinned as he saw the piece of meat fairy look at him and gasp, and the fear in her eyes.
He advanced on her slowly, creeping, shuffling and raised his scythe ready to impale her.
"You are going to make a fine snack fairy." he said.
Bloom stared as the demon said it was going to make her a snack, and it moved forward. She quickly leapt up and shot off an attack. Or tried to.
Thrusting her hands forward Bloom shouted "DRAGON HEART!". It did nothing very spectacular. A small fireball, that guttered out only a few feet from her, and a poof of smoke then.
Then Bloom's transformation canceled and she fell to the floor.
Bloom was shocked. 'What happened?!' she thought. 'This should not have happened.'
"WINX BELIEVIX!" Bloom shouted.
Nothing happened.
'NO!' thought Bloom.
Slightly panicked Bloom shouted "WINX ENCHANTIX!".
Again nothing happened.
Bloom was very panicked now and shouted "WINX CHARMIX!"
Still nothing happened.
Eyes wide now, and panting fearfully, and total desperately Bloom shouted out "MAGIC WINX!".
And Bloom transformed.
Horny watched as she leapt to her feet and launched some type of attack at him. He laughed as it guttered out long before reaching him and poofed into smoke. He stared as the fairy-girl became an ordinary human and fell to the floor.
'Hmmm.' he thought. 'I didn't know fairies could assume a human form. She looks just like a human now. Pity. I was so looking forward to ripping her wings off of her screaming and thrashing body.'
He watched as she shouted some kind of spell. Whatever it was it failed. He laughed to himself as he saw her become more panicked.
He watched as he shouted another phrase, nothing happened, and she grew more panicked.
She did it again, and again nothing, and now signs of obvious fear.
Good. He liked watching the fear in the faces of victims. He would make it last with this one, he might even take a few days to savor her fear/loss/pain before he killed her.
She shouted out something again. But this time... Something different happened.
Fire raced over Bloom's body and when it receded Bloom was in her first level transformation.
'I did it.' she thought in relief.
"Looks like I have the power now." she said to the demon. "I don't think you'll be able to get me now. Try this on for size."
She launched an attack against it "DRAGON FIRE!"
A huge fireball left her hands and impacted against the demon.
The demon caught the fireball.
Bloom gasped.
Bloom looked quite now.
"Ha!" said the demon. "Did you think you could attack me? Did you think this would affect me? Foolish fairy girl, fire is my friend!"
The demon played with the fireball in his right hand now.
The demon laughed, his pointy teeth shining, now right at her.
'Oh shit.' thought Bloom.
