"Mama, can you please read me and Gonzales a bed time story," a young blonde girl holding her stuffed doll asked her mother as she was lying down on her bed.
"Sure, my little Lucy, but what kind of stories do you want me to read you," her regal mother asked, as she sat next to her lying daughter on her bed.
"Mama, can you read me a story about the different celestial spirits that resides in the Celestial Spirit Realm," the girl asked.
"Sure, my little Lucy, how about I tell you the story of the Celestial Guardian," her mother stated, causing Lucy to clutch her doll Gonzales in excitement.
"Once upon a time, there was a young heroine who often looked up at the stars, in times of great conflict in Earthland. Her land was being overrun by angry monsters who wanted her land. The young girl often prayed to the night sky pleading for the God of the Stars to lend her people help. Some time passed, and the heroine eventually began rounding up her people to try and fend off monsters. The God of the Stars enjoyed the village people worshipping him and his creation so much that he decided to appear to the village people. The village people were amazed at his power and they all begged him for help to fight against the monsters. He was quite hesitant about what he should do about their situation. He then told them that his creations would vanish if they stayed in that world and he decided to give them an ultimatum. He decided that he wanted to help the people, but he also didn't want to lose his creations, so he told the people that he would give them time to come up with an idea that could keep his spirits safe. The young heroine eventually realized that there was a possibility of using their magic to tether the God of Stars creation onto keys. So, the young heroine and her eleven friends informed the God of Stars about their idea and they promised that the God creations would not at all die from the process. Days passed and soon the heroine and her eleven friends began an ancient ritual which eventually resulted in the Golden Gate Keys being made. Eventually the monsters stormed the village, attacking everyone and the young heroine and her friends eventually managed to rid the monsters away with the power of the stars."
"Mama, were the God of Stars creation, the Zodiac Spirits," the young girl asked.
"Yes, they were my little Lucy. Soon the Zodiac Spirits assisted the people and they got rid of all the monster. Eventually, the young heroine and her friends passed on in their life, which eventually the zodiacs were given to their descendants."
"Mama, have you met any of the Zodiac Spirits," a questioning Lucy asked as she set her doll Gonzales on her bed.
"Yes, I have met some of the Zodiac and at one point in my life, I actually used to own the Zodiac. But then you came along in my life and I decided to give my disciples my Zodiac keys," Layla mentioned to her daughter.
The young girl eyes brightened s she heard the news from her mother. She couldn't believe that her mother had some of the Zodiacs at one point. She remembered that most of her bedtimes stories consisted of tales of the different Zodiacs spirits.
"Mama, what are the different zodiacs spirits like," Lucy asked, wondering what powers some of the zodiac spirits had and what they were like.
"Well, one of my closest celestial spirit is Aquarius, who is extremely sassy and has a huge temper. The first time I summoned Aquarius, she gave me a lot of attitude and then decided to launch a huge wave of water at me. But after you can get through that tough exterior, she really is a softie," her mother explained to her.
The young Lucy laughed at the story and began to imagine playing with the water spirit. She could imagine the two of them swimming together and going on all sorts of adventure. Plus, she could finally have a friend to play with.
"Then there was Capricorn, who was not only one of my closest spirits but also my mentor in some sorts. He's wise and strict spirit who often always wanted to be impressed and he was not afraid to speak his mind at time. Overall he was extremely knowledgeable on celestial magic even knowing a few spells and even some magic like time spells to assist a wizard in turning the tides in battle."
Lucy could just imagine a spirit mentoring her in becoming a strong celestial wizard that could take down a bunch of bad guys at once.
"Then I had a confident lion spirit known as Leo, who always made sure that I was protected. He was a brave and flirty spirits that worked extensively with me on mission often providing me with great advice. Leo used this unique light magic known as Regulus that had a dazzling glow and when he fought, it truly was blinding."
Lucy could only think about having a huge lion that could just beat thing up with huge light. She then began to think back to the book that her mother read to her about a girl with red slippers going on an adventure.
"The last spirit that I will tell you about is Cancer, who was the crab spirit. He was a fun spirit to hang out with since he was a professional hair stylist. He could make anyone that was suffering with bed hair, gorgeous in only a few minutes. He also was a quick agile fighter who could make swift work of enemy with his shears," Layla told her drowsy child.
"Mama, do you think that one day you can teach me how to use celestial spirit magic," the young girl asked.
"I would love to do that and if you want, maybe I can begin training you in the next few weeks. So that one day, you will be known as one of the greatest celestial wizard. I'll teach you everything that I know about celestial magic, so even if I am gone, you can have Bero, Aed and Ms. Spetto teach you everything that I ever knew," Layla rambled.
"Mama, I'm getting tired," Lucy said as she began rubbing her eyes.
"Get some sleep, my little shining star," Layla whispered as she kissed her daughter head. She watched as her young child fell asleep, before exiting the room.
A few changes in Fairy Tail Lore will occurred. Such as Layla having Leo and a few other zodiac keys before passing them on to different disciples.
