The Lost Keys
By King Jacobi Nohansen Hyrule
"Hey look a new job offer." Lucy exclaimed.
Natsu looked up from his staring at the lunch counter.
"Really how much does it pay?" he said, walking over. Lucy leaned closer to the request board.
" Just 5,000 j." She replied, squinting at the tiny writing. Natsu turned and dashed off.
"Be right back!"
He was back a few moments later, carrying a torch in his mouth.
"What do we have to find?" Lucy sighed, frustrated with the small quickly scribbled writing.
"Here, you read it."
Help me find a special water creating urn for my village.
I am offering a 5,000 j reward.
As well as whatever you find in the temple.

"You two aren't doing that without us, are you?"
The two wizards turned. Erza was leaning against the front door, a rare smirk gracing her lips. Grey was peering over her shoulder.
"Of course not!" Lucy grinned.
"Good. Let's go." The red-haired wizard turned, then stepped back, a groan escaping her lips.
"Grey, get your clothes on. Now."
Grey looked down and smiled sheepishly, rubbing the back of his neck.
"Oops."
OoooOoooOoooOoooO
"Here we are!" Lucy exclaimed.
They were in front of a large, highly decorated temple. It looked similar to a temple of the Mayans, with a long slope leading upwards to a small stone building. Stair-like building stones also led up to the small building, resulting in a worn-looking, but impressive structure. However, this looked like no Mayan temple Lucy had ever seen.
Worn-looking would not be a word to describe the structure; everything about the place was new, from the handsome black and white tiles adorning the floor, to the glossy marble dragon statues lining the pathway.
"What's with all the dragon statues?"Natsu spoke up, gazing around in fascination.
Erza barely spared the striking marble figures a glance, instead striding forward, her eyes focused on the dazzling white pedestal centered near the back of the room.
"it would appear we are at the temple of the Twin Dragons." She murmured.
"Twin Dragons?" Lucy questioned curiously.
"Yes." Erza didn't elaborate.
"Oh… "
The entourage of wizards had arrived at the pedestal, and Lucy immediately stepped forward, observing the silver key with a trained eye, picking it up, and holding it ceremoniously over her head.
"OPEN GATE OF THE PURE DRAGON!" she yelled, squinting at the familiar scribbled writing adorning the pedestal.
A shining symbol of Yin and a pure white dragon with black eyes appeared in a flash of silver light.
And so the most well-known and powerful found themselves face to face with a very angry deity.
