I'll Love You for a Thousand More

But, when the Tenrou group returns, will Lucy and Lisanna return to their mates in Fairy Tail, or will they stay where they were able to spread their wings? Warning: Characters are OOC
Chapter 1: Returning
Lucy POV
"Ohayo minna! We're back!" I yelled as I pushed through the doors into the guild, Lisanna following behind me. I stood in the front for a moment, looking around.
Then I asked Bisca, who was one of the only people I saw in the guild hall. "Where is everyone?"
She looked up at me, and said, "While you guys were on your mission, most of the members left for the S-Class trials. What took you so long anyways? Before she left, Mira said that your job wasn't supposed to take that long."
Lisanna spoke up, seeing me start to fume. "Once we got there, we were notified that our client had just left for a business trip and wouldn't be back for two days."
*Flashback*
No POV
"I'm very sorry," The head maid started.
"But the Master just left on a business trip to Amethyst city. (AN: Did I make this town up? I really only know Hargeon, Clover town and Magnolia) Only he has the information that you will need to find the monster plaguing the town, so you will have to stay close until he returns."
Lucy and Lisanna nodded, and Lucy asked, "Are there any good hotels in this town? We were very rushed coming here and didn't have the chance to look around that much."
"No need to worry about accommodations." The maid said.
"The Master prepared for those who came for the job to stay in the mansion. There are many people coming and going through here, so the Master always has at least two rooms prepared." She led the two mages to some adjacent rooms, spoke with Lisanna for a moment, and then ushered them through the doors.
"If you have any need for me during your stay," she started again, "just ask one of the other maids for Felicia and I'll be there as soon as I can." She bowed and backed out of the room, as Lucy jumped onto the large canopy bed and sighed, "This is absolutely incredible!"
Lisanna giggled at this, and said, "It is. Felicia told me that there should be a door connecting our rooms and…here it is!" She grabbed the handle, and pulled open the door, revealing a light blue room, the opposite of the dark blue room Lucy was lying in.
"Oh!" Lisanna gasped. "It's beautiful!"
"Girls," knocked Felicia, "it's about time for dinner, so come down whenever you're ready."
They both gasped, and Lucy rushed to her bags, opening one and rifling through the clothes in it.
"What are you doing?" Lisanna asked.
"Getting changed." She replied. "I don't think it would be very appropriate to go down all dirty from our journey here, to a dinner in a mansion." Lisanna nodded at her statement, and went through her own bags to find a nice outfit. They both eventually tracked down the stairs, Lucy wearing a dark blue, sleeveless sundress, with a fitted bodice, and a golden sash around the waist, brown gladiator sandals adorning her feet. Lisanna was wearing a light blue, knee length skirt, a white blouse, and black ankle boots.
*Time skip: After dinner*
"Hey Lucy, where are you going?" Lisanna asked her friend.
"Out to the garden. I meditate with one of my spirits, Capricorn, every night to increase my magical reserves. I haven't been doing it recently, since Natsu has been sneaking into my house earlier every night." She replied, continuing to walk.
There was a silence between them for a moment before Lisanna asked, "Can I join you? Sometimes I just feel like I'm holding Mira-san and Elf-nee-san back on missions and when I don't go with-"
"I know how you feel Lisanna." Lucy cut her off. "That's how I feel with Team Natsu sometimes, because I don't have the brute strength that the others do, but this is really only occasionally. So that's why I started meditating. So I could make up for my lack of brute strength with my magic reserves."
Lisanna nodded, then decided she wanted to know more about her companion and asked, "Doesn't it actually take more magic then most would think to summon a Celestial spirit, let alone hold it out for a battle, and power its attacks?" Lucy looked at her, surprised about her question for a moment.
Then she nodded, saying, "It actually does," she smiled. "To summon a spirit, and then battle with it for an extended period of time takes about as much magic as one, maybe two Roars from a Dragon Slayer, depending on the spirit, how many attacks you use, and what caliber the attacks are. Say, if I were to summon Aquarius, and she let me keep her out for a while, and she kept attacking, never on the defensive, that would use the same amount of magic of about two Dragon Slayer's Roars. But, anyways, how did you know about this Lisanna?"
"Before the Anima brought me to Edolas I read a lot of the books in the Guild library, where a lot of books were on Lost or almost Lost magics, and since there were some Celestial mages out there, there weren't many books on it, but there were some." She replied. Both the mages continued to talk throughout the night, soon falling asleep in the garden.
*Time skip: 2 days*
The morning the Master of the house came back the servants were bustling. Soon the large doors swung open, letting a man about Makarov's age through. As he walked in, the two mages followed him up the main stairs and into his office, where he gave them an envelope about what they were supposed to get rid of.
"When you have gotten rid of the beast plaguing our town, come back here and I'll give you the payment." He said to them, sending them off. They walked to a clearing on the outside of town, and sat down, starting to read the file.
Lucy read the first part out loud, saying, "There are two different, conflicting testimonies, one saying that the beast has a more wolf-like shape than others, but the weird part is that some say it has brown fur and green eyes, while others say the beast has black fur and golden eyes."
"Alright." Lisanna replied. "We should start looking for them and if we don't find them within two hours we'll come back here." Lucy nodded and started to head away, before Lisanna threw her something.
"Take this communications lacrima," she said. "and contact me if you find them." Lucy nodded and continued into the town, while Lisanna headed for the surrounding forest.
*Time skip: 1 hour*
"Lucy!" Lucy heard from the lacrima she was carrying. "Hurry to my coordinates, follow Pyxis (Is this how you spell her spirit? I think it is), but hurry! I found the 'beasts' but they're really just large wolves, and there are hunters trying to capture them. They've already got the brown one in a cage. I can't do anything without attracting their attention, and they have big guns."
"I'll be right there." Lucy replied, summoning Pyxis. She rushed to where her job partner was, and found her hiding in some bushes, about a yard away from where the hunters were.
"We have to confront them. Why don't you summon one of your spirits to help us?" Lisanna said.
"Okay." Lucy replied. She then turned away from the sight, and moved to where she could summon a spirit without gaining the hunters attention.
"Open, Gate of the Lion! Leo!" She called, and as he appeared, she told him their plan.
They all stood, Lisanna going first, and calling out, "What are you doing? It's our job to rid the town of these beasts."
One hunter, who was holding the black one back with a leash, looked at the mages and spirit, and called out, "Well, if you want 'em so much, take 'em!" He released the black one, who came barreling towards the mages at a daunting speed.
Loke jumped in front of them, smashing his fist to the ground while calling out, "Regulus Shield!" His attack created a golden shield in front of the two, which saved them from being hit of the large wolf, but also gave the hunters time to escape. As the shield faded, the black wolf ran to the cage where the brown one was, and sniffed the side, whining, unable to let it out.
"Loke," Lucy called to him as he stood up. "Help the other one out and we'll take the leash off of the free wolf." He nodded, as they both went to play their own roles in freeing the two wolves, who they had guessed were mates. Finally setting them both free, Loke disappeared back to the spirit world with a golden flash, just as the two wolves disappeared deeper into the forest. Lucy and Lisanna then walked back to the mansion for their pay, wanting to return to Magnolia, and their guild. They soon arrived at the large house in which they had stayed, with the sun still high in the sky, they took their pay from the Master of the house, and left to the train station.
*End Flashback*
Lucy POV
"And so that's why the mission took longer than we had originally expected." I spoke up to finish what Lisanna had been saying. Bisca nodded.
"That makes a lot of sense actually. Reports come from many missions from around that area that some of the people aren't too magic-friendly. Given that Emerald City is a large hunting area, the hunters trying to take over your job is really no surprise." She replied.
"Well," I started. "I'm going to get a good night's rest, what without Natsu sneaking in through my window." I chuckled.
"Hey Lisanna!" She looked up.
"Would you want to come over to my apartment tonight? We could have some more bonding like how we were during the mission, so that we could work better together on anymore missions we take while the others are on Tenrou Island." After I said this, she smiled at me, and nodded.
"Alright! I'll come over around five, given it's only an hour until then." I smiled back and walked to the doors, pushing them open.
"See you then, Lisanna! Bye everyone! See you tomorrow!"
So how'd you like it guys? The next chapter will come soon, I swear, for this story and my others. New Year's Revolution: Update more, but sadly that was also what I gave up for Lent, so I'm back now! More will come soon though, given that I still wrote during the Lenten season. See you next time!
Signing off,
