In our last episode:
Bloom and the others visited the Red Fountain School
to witness the opening ceremonies.
There Lord Darkar unleashed the powerful Graakthroat.
With the help of the charming Helia,
the fairies won the day.
Give need to this warning foolhardy humankind.
The Creature of Destruction will appear from the illuminating world
and reveal: secret wings.
He will perceive that which is missing
and will mirror himself among the citizenry.
When the three sacred planets align,
their power will extend throughout the Universe
and he will usher in doom and destruction!
SCREAMING
Let's get outta here!
ROARING
We've been saved!
Bloom... Bloom honey...
Mom, Bloom's awake.
- Isn't she lovely... - Bloom, come here.
Aahh.
Those people... were my real parents!
BLOOM SIGHS
They never give us enough food around here!
My breakfast is gone, but I'm still hungry.
Hey, now this is interesting! Listen to these girls...
...apparently the Count of Mostradame
predicted New Babylon's Renaissance by observing the planets.
There's an easy scientific explanation for that!
The rotation velocity of one planet didn't match its chromatic spectrum!
Come on Tecna, I'm starving!
I can't even concentrate on what you're saying!
Okay, you can have it!
Ahh!
Huh?
Okay, if this is a joke I'm not appreciating it!
Look at the bright side, Stella!
Things are stacking up in your favour!
Very funny!
- Tecna. Are you doing this? - What?
Relax lassie! You've been the subject of an experiment!
The apples fooled the eyes of the fairy of light!
- Clearly, my work is improving! - Hunh?
However, practice makes perfect!
Enjoy your breakfast, me lasses.
Uh! This is the worst day ever! My hair's all frizzy!
Breakfast disappeared and we've got seven hours of class ahead of us!
Nothing can cheer me up now!
Oh!
Good morning!
ALL: Good morning, Professor Avalon!
I hope the flowers got your day off to a cheery start.
How thoughtful! Thank you, Professor.
Purple is my favourite colour.
Yes! It's mine too!
Bloom, last night you had a dream
that touched your heart, didn't you?
Professor, it was about my real parents.
I'd like to find out what happened to them.
Will you help me?
Certainly! Meet me in my office after class.
I think this is the best day ever.
I won't have any trouble listening to him lecture all year!
Wait a minute! Didn't you tell us he had angel wings.
I'm sure he did! But they're not there any more!
Oh! Will you two stop it? You're spoiling everything!
Hm... I think we'd better find out what happened to those wings!
Good afternoon, Professor!
Five roses and eight tulips have gone missing
from this garden since this morning!
Your cognitive acuity certainly does live up to its reputation.
Ah ha!
What a lovely bouquet!
I'm not sure I've done anything to deserve this?
It's the least we could do after your sweet surprise this morning!
There are thousands of flowers on campus.
How did he know how many were missing from the garden?
As you know, this class is called Cognitive Analysis.
You'll learn how to hone your senses and trust your instincts...
you'll learn to look for details
and perhaps find new powers within yourselves!
Now, let's start with an easy question.
Who was the first ever fairy?
ALL: Claryel!
Do you know that, or do you just believe it?
Can you prove it?
My mother told me, and she's never wrong.
That may be so but where did your mother learn it from?
I really can't say for sure, but everybody knows about Claryel!
Having everybody believe she's the first fairy...
...is enough to make her so.
Even though she's not.
That proves how strong the power of words can be.
But shouldn't Layla trust her mother?
Sometimes trust is all you have to carry you forward.
But to really know the "truth" is an entirely different experience,
not to be taken for granted.
We've got to unveil the mystery surrounding Avalon's lost wings.
Is there any data that tells us what happened?
This book keeps popping up all over the net.
It's the guide to Anthropomorphic Winged Monsters.
- Can you download it? - No, it's too ancient.
But I located it in the Alfea Library catalogue.
Uh... Oh.
Oh no! I'm stuck. Oh...
Why are you crying Lockette?
I was playing in the computer like Digit, but...
Hm.
Now I'm stuck and my dress is torn!
I'll take care of it!
That's terrible! But I can take care of it!
Voilà your new dress!
- Now you have two of them! - Thank you!
Here's our book.
Anthropomorphic Winged Monsters. By Serius Facetus.
Hurry, Tecna! Read it!
My eyes are tired! I've been in a computer way too long!
Wow! Angels, Vampires...
- Winged Humans... - There.
Anthropomorphic monsters with retractable wings!
That's what I thought! The wings are hidden!
Do you think Avalon is one of the monsters.
The Creature of Destruction
will appear from the illuminating void...
He will perceive that which is hidden.
And mirror himself among the citizenry...
when the three sacred planets align,
their power will extend throughout the universe,
and he will usher in doom and destruction.
That sounds like a prophecy!
So Avalon does have a secret!
Which planets are we talking about?
Orez, Fallat and Rot. Their conjunction is bad news.
We can't let it happen!
Tecna, Avalon isn't in the garden.
Have you located him on your palmtop?
Not yet.
Wait, I got him. He's in his office!
Impossible! He just walked into the garden!
I'll follow him and see where he's going.
Tecna! What's wrong? Tecna, are you there?
He will perceive what is hidden
and mirror himself among the citizenry.
He will usher in doom and destruction!
There he is again!
Suddenly Avalon is everywhere at once.
Digit, meet me in Avalon's office, Bloom's in danger!
Hurry, Lockette! Bloom's in trouble!
- What's going on! - I'll explain later!
Reveal your name to the Crystal.
Bloom. Huh?
We've got to stop him! He's casting a spell on her!
- Aagh! - Look!
What's all that?
That's your family tree. This is you right here.
It is! Hmm. My sister Daphne is here...
And my parents Oritel and Mariam. Hunh, oh!
That's the coat of arms I saw in my dream.
This is wonderful!
Bloom is finally learning the truth about her real parents.
She's not in danger at all!
Maybe not! But let's keep an eye on him.
I still don't trust him.
It's hard to believe Avalon is an intellectual...
'cause he's such a pretty boy.
I hope Invocation class will be easier.
That will depend on how hard you work.
Hi girls! It's me, Palladium!
ALL: Huh?
Astonishing, isn't it?
I'm back in one of my many teacher transformations.
This year I'll be teaching "Magic Invocation!"
Professor Avalon will teach you to understand magic.
- I'll teach you to make it! - This could be fun!
Last year's class was such a free for all!
- Bloom! Heads up! - Make one for me, Tecna,
yours always fly so well!
A yellow Tricosium potion should never be shaken.
It could become explosive. Hm.
Now that I have your attention,
I'd like to take a moment to discuss technical charms...
Now that you know the basics, let's begin! Plasma sphere!
This is a plasma sphere summoned through Direct Invocation.
- Someone wants to give it a try? - I'll try it!
All right, Stella! Be my guest, but remember,
one syllable in the wrong place
could be enough to burn all the air right out of this room.
On the other hand, maybe not! Heat's bad for my hair!
Amaryl, why don't you give it a go, sweetie!
I'll get you for this!
Once the image is well-defined in your head,
you may invoke it!
AMARYL GROANS
Stay focused, let your mind penetrate it!
Plasma sphere!
Imagine you are inside the sphere...
Now imagine it illuminating within you...
You are one with the sphere.
This visualisation is called inversion.
Amaryl, spread your hands.
Haha!
ALL: Wow!
Now, choose a target, and launch it.
Go on, but keep your focus.
Or your classmates'll wish they'd worn sunscreen!
AMARYL GROANS
AMARYL STRAINS
Desist!
Huh!
Huh, phew!
- Amaryl. - Ah, darn it! Oh.
Do that again and I'll have you expelled!
That's clear, I hope!
Yes, sir. Hm...
The Fairies and Pixies will solve the mystery of Professor Avalon.
I wonder what'll happen! Oh! Someone's calling me!
Data dump girls... What've you found out?
Not very much, I'm afraid!
We know that Avalon had a career at Mala-Koi Academy in Koria.
And seventeen years ago,
villages there were attacked by a winged man!
And this is the zinger...
Koria's destruction happened exactly when the three planets aligned!
That sounds just like the prophecy.
- Still, we need more information. - I have some!
Faragonda said we should consult Professor Griffin.
She is a world expert on astrology and prophecy!
Alright, I'll go. You keep an eye on Bloom and Avalon!
Thanks for the lift, Timmy! Wow, we're really moving!
Yeah, I just had my Wind-rider outfitted with new turbo jets!
Now, let's try an exercise with these two enchanted swords.
Alright, who will be my first victim?
- Me! - ALL: No!
Huh! Why shouldn't I?
- Let go of me, Stella! - Sorry! Go ahead!
One suspicious move from him and we clobber him, okay?
Orez, Fallat and Rot? They're an ancient planetary system.
Their convergence always brings bad luck.
And do you know when they're due to align again?
When conditions on all galaxies are right,
I'll know more when it's dark and I can look at the sky.
I hope it's not too late!
Aaagh!
Aaah!
Hey!
Bloom, you chose the beautiful sword because it seemed superior to you.
When in fact, the dull sword has the stronger blade.
These dents are the result of a mighty attack.
But the sword survived it
because it's made of a special alloy.
Never trust appearances.
Look more deeply through other clues for the real truth.
What other clues will reveal the real truth about Avalon, I wonder.
Bloom, are you ready to step into your past?
Yes, Professor. I am ready.
Aren't the Pixies with you?
They're collecting more data with Professor Griffin.
Welcome back.
I heard my mother's lullaby.
Thank you.
I'm not the one you should thank. It's a gift from your past!
Incredible.
Orez, Fallat and Rot will align tonight at eleven fifty nine,
bringing a curse upon the fairies of Alfea...
You only have ten minutes.
That means Serius Facetus' prophecy is true!
Avalon is the Creature of Destruction!
Alfea, do you read me? Alfea, you have a problem!
Did she say anything about the session?
No she's been resting ever since.
Let her sleep. We've got to terminate Avalon immediately.
If he transforms into the creature of Destruction,
then Bloom and the Fairies of Alfea are in grave danger.
The evil must be stopped.
How much time do we have?
Four minutes thirty two seconds until astral convergence.
This is going to be dangerous. Is everybody up to it?
ALL: Yes!
I'm ready now! No mission is impossible!
The Pixies have to stay here. It's too dangerous!
If we're quiet we can catch Avalon in his sleep!
This is his room.
When I get the door open, be ready to pounce!
ALL: Okay!
Where could he have gone to?
Mmh...
What is it, girls? Is something wrong?
Yes! You're what's wrong! Magic Winx!
#WINX THEME
What's going on here?
It's time to work our magic on you!
It is time!
Go, girls!
THEY GASP
Don't lose him!
Full transformation only takes one minute!
Oh no! It's too late!
His transformation's almost complete!
Now he's cornered!
Ah!
You meddlesome fairies!
Oh! So sorry to ruin your plans.
By my watch there's still time for him to transform!
Desperate times call for desperate measures!
Plasma Sphere!
No Tecna! His wings are gone! Time's up!
Hee yah!
ALL: No!
Next time, go digital!
Sorry...
Oh...
Headmistress, I have no idea what happened!
It turns out my watch was right after all.
There was plenty of time for him to transform but he didn't!
The book described everything else exactly right.
His retractable wings, his clones, the missing flowers
and the convergence of the planets!
I need an explanation!
Well perhaps my colleagues will be much obliged to give one.
I use my wings when I need to.
When I'm being chased, for instance.
ALL: Oh.
And, I knew how many flowers were missing
because I was practising a spell which enhanced my sense of smell.
I'll teach it to you.
But what about all those multiple clones of yourself?
How do you explain that?
That was all my doing, Tecna.
Remember my little trick with all the apples?
This is the machine I invented to do it!
Watch, I'll show you what else it can do.
Hahaha. Be amazed.
- Ah. - A dozen Headmistresses!
- What a nightmare. - Stella!
Something's wrong with it! It's out of control!
Blarney! Another project up in smoke!
So, I guess the prophecy was false.
Now tell me, who was the author of this prophetic book?
It was written by the famous Seruis Facetus, Headmistress.
- Ha ha ha. - What's so funny?
Tecna, I don't think you checked your sources.
Seruis Facetus was a comedian from two centuries ago!
The other clue we learned about!
The book is famous! Everyone knows of it!
You weren't listening to Avalon's lectures, dear.
Just because something's well-known, doesn't make it the truth.
I guess I've truly learned that lesson!
I certainly hope so, my dear,
and I believe you owe Professor Avalon an apology!
ALL: We're sorry, Professor.
An exam as punishment should fit the crime!
STELLA: See? This is the worst day ever!
BLOOM SIGHS
In our next episode of Winx Club:
The evil Trix attack the Red Fountain School,
Bloom and Tecna try to help
but Sky is hurt in the battle.
Is the day lost,
or can Bloom find a new strength within herself?
