The Great Challenge is the one-hundred and twenty-second issue of the Winx Club Comic Series.

Synopsis[]

To celebrate the camaraderie between the Alfea Fairies and Cloud Tower Witches, a friendly soccer match is held with the Winx playing for Alfea. Everyone is in good spirits until the match is interrupted by a trio of uninvited guests who wish to pay the Winx back for making the witches of Cloud Tower sink so low enough to the point where they would actively associate with fairies in a friendly manner. Little do the Trix know is that the Winx have something special in store for them.

Plot[]

I122 (1)

Icy, hating the idea of fairies and witches getting along.

At their loft in Gardenia, Bloom is practicing handling a soccer ball. But since it has been a long time, she is no longer as pro as she used to be. It turns out, Bloom had suggested to Faragonda and Griffin a friendly match between the Cloud Tower Witches and Alfea Fairies. This way, it can strengthen the bonds between fairies and witches.

At the stadium, the crowd, including their boyfriends and the schools' headmistresses, cheers as the players enter the field.

I122 (2)

The golems are summoned to ruin the game and fun.

The match begins with a good luck handshake between the opposing teams. The ball is passed about each Winx, effectively evading the witches; finally, Bloom has the ball and is about to make a goal when the ball suddenly disappears. Stella at first suspects the witches were up to something but one of them honestly denies any involvement in it. As it turns out, the Trix were responsible for stealing the ball. Icy freezes the ball, then shatters it.

I122 (3)

The Winx and witches converge their powers to defeat the golems.

The reason they came to crash the game was to express their extreme disapproval of witches and fairies ever getting along. They even scold the witches for even participating in this match. Fed up with their nonsense, Sky demands that they leave or they will deal with the Specialists. Stormy is not at all fazed by the threat and shots lightning at the crowd, scaring them and causing them to flee. 

I122 (4)

The Winx wins the game!

Icy then has Darcy create a barrier that prevents the players from leaving the field. Icy then summons golems to attack. The girls transform into their unique fairy form of sports. Alongside the witches, the Winx try to dispatch the golems but to no avail as they are immune to magic. They also can absorb the magic which strengthens them.

Bloom then hatches an idea - using convergence with the witches. The witches are not sure about it but with the encouragement from their fairy competitors, they agree. The Trix sees this as a major offense and wants to enact a severe punishment until Stella blinds the Trix. With them out of commission, the Winx and witches converge their powers and defeat the golems.

I122 (5)

Fairies and Witches are no longer rivals, but friends.

The headmistress then marches straight towards Icy, ready to give them a taste of their own medicine. This forces the Trix to retreat and the game resumes.

The ball is passed about until it finally reaches Bloom once again, and this time, she makes the winning shot. The crowd cheers and the witches congratulate the Winx for their win. However, the best reason to celebrate is the friendship that was born between the witches and fairies as of this game.
