OoOoOoO
"By the order of Lord Lucifer, you are marked!" Lucy Heartphilia, age seventeen, yells in a sophisticated and all-business tone as she crouches down, prepared for battle. The ugly demonic soul rears it large head and roars, understanding every word she said. It's tongue, almost six yards long, shoots at her, aiming for her face. Smirking, Lucy jumps out of the way easily, and snatches her Fleuve Étoile from her hip. She snaps the bullwhip made from gold leather sideways, and it magically stretches to land a cutting blow onto the abomination's face. At least, she thought that was it's face…that's where it's tongue came from. Sticky crimson ran from the gaping wound that her whip made and it screeches in pain. Lucy laughs as she brings her whip around to a stop.
"Be prepared to be exterminated!" The young blonde woman bellows, and she draws the whip down in a snapping motion. The creature screeches in pain as the whip's tip connects, followed by the length of the gold leather. It backs up on it's back spider-like legs, shaking it's head back and forth to clear the blood from it's beady black eyes. Lucy smirks and says, "Easy as pie." She raises her whip to strike again, but is forced to roll out of the way as the demonic soul shoots it's tongue at her again, covered in potent green poison. She narrowly dodges it, cursing silently at the fumes that bombarded her nostrils. Damn Shūtai*… "Damn your breath stinks!" She yells, keeping her amused and calm exterior. Have to get away from the fumes…they are just as dangerous as the liquid.
Lucy stands to her full height and breaks into a sprint towards the beast, whip curling up by itself, preparing to be used again. The demonic soul shoots it tongue at her again and again as she runs, missing every time. Lucy smirks as she nears him, and she dodges a blow to her stomach, leaping over the tongue. She brings down her whip, and the strong leather cord lands, cutting straight through the creature's tongue. It screams in pain and backs up, blood spraying everywhere. The crimson liquid drenches the grinning blonde, who has never felt more alive. "Not so tough now, eh?"
Pfft, like it ever was.
Lucy suddenly rushes forward, throwing her whip to the side and throwing her arms in the direction of the wounded creature, "Banishment time! Akuma no marionetto**!" Her hands glow bright white, and the air around her shimmers. She breaths out through her nose and drags her hands up. A large crack forms instantaneously in the rock path underneath the beast. It screams in pain and terror as suddenly large, pale white and bloody hands reach out from the crevice, reaching and grabbing the abomination's spider legs. Lucy looks away, always sickened by the banishment technique she had to use. Her banishment technique was the most powerful of all, and she didn't get it because she was the best of the best, quite the contrary. She certainly didn't get it because she kissed some asses and brown-nosed all the time.
No, no, she got it because Lucy Heartphilia, age seventeen, was the Daughter of the Devil.
When the screeches, groans, and screams die down, Lucy dares to look back. Nothing, absolutely nothing remained. There wasn't any trace that she had been fighting anything here, even the blood was gone. To everyone in the world, this demonic soul never even existed, and Lucy herself wanted to forget as soon as possible. She looks down to her now soiled clothes and groans, "Great." Walking away from the battle sight-picking up her whip along the way-, her tennis shoes make squishing sounds against the road beneath her and she groans again, "Disgusting. It smells so awful…" Her tone was whiny and very feminine, much different from earlier, where her tone had been sophisticated and fierce. The two halves of Lucy Heartphilia, Levy McGarden always says, like day and night. Lucy smiles at the thought of her best friend, even though she was covered in blood. "I hope Levy-chan is alright…I did abandon everyone to get that runner…oh she has Gajeel! She'll be fine." She told herself, but she couldn't help but feel slightly worried. Levy wasn't the best fighter but her courage and loyalty to the tem was outstanding, so Lucy knew that Levy couldn't be beaten easily. Plus, she was pretty much the brains of the group (even though it was more in the book sense) and she often decoded many things for everyone, so she was a majorly needed asset to the team. All of them were.
Lucy yawns as she carries down the road, humming to herself. "Now where were they again? I did run a long ways…" She wipes her face unsuccessfully and groans again, whining more and more. "Maybe Juvia can wash me off…maybe if I make a move on Grey, she'll blast me with water…but it will also be very painful…I'll just ask her. Pfft, damn Water Demon…" Quickly, Lucy nervously looks around. If said 'Water Demon' heard the blonde call her that, she would explode. She absolutely hated being called a Demon, even though she was one. Well, not personality wise. Juvia Loxar was actually a very sweet bashful demon who loved the rain and Grey. The Water Demon has had huge crush- no, crush would be an understatement, more like obsession- with the Ice Demon Grey Fullbuster, and even though he pretended like he didn't give a rat's ass about her, Lucy knew that he actually liked Juvia's attention.
Yeah, if Lucy said that if front of him, she would die a thousand icy deaths.
Lucy sighed and carried on, looking around as she did so, "Where are th-" She was cut off by a sound left to her. She looks and pauses, knowing the sound was getting closer. She Turns to face it, "What the…"
She jumps to the side as a giant spider looking monster goes by. Her eyes widen, before she growls, "Who…threw…that…at…ME?!" She screeches at the top of her lungs, facing where the beast was thrown from. Out comes a tall bulky man with…iron skin? His crimson eyes lock on her and he chuckles.
"Gihihihi! Oi, Bunny Girl, what happened to you?" The man says, amused.
Lucy fumes and snaps, "Shut up, Gajeel!"
"Got a little carried away, eh?"
"Shut up! I did what I had to! Don't mock my pain…" Lucy whimpers, and she pouts. Gajeel Redfox walks over to her and pats her head rather forcefully. Lucy stares at him angrily and huffs.
"Oh, it's okay, Bunny Girl. Now, if you don't mind, I have a Shūtai to banish." He chuckles again in that strange way and calmly walks over to where he had thrown the beast.
"Make sure not to hurt yourself, Iron Demon!" Lucy calls after him slyly, a small smirk on her face.
Gajeel turns and scowls at her, "That was one time, Bunny Girl! Don't bring it up!"
"How am I a bunny again?"
"'Cause your nose twitches like one." Gajeel dead pans, before full out laughing and walking away towards the beast that was starting to get up. Choosing not to watch Gajeel's banishment technique, because it was just as gruesome as Lucy's in her opinion. She pouts and whispers, "My nose doesn't twitch…" Sure enough, just in that moment, her nose twitched. "UGH!" She bellows, slamming her hands on her nose to cover it up, in doing so, she hurt her little button nose. "Ow! Ugh! Fuck you, nose!"
"What did your poor nose do this time?" A deep voice says. Lucy's eyes snap up to a man with shaggily black hair and cool black eyes.
"It's being stupid…Stupid nose, stupid Gajeel, stupid abomination, stupid blood!" She screeches, still covering her nose.
The man rolls his eyes, "Lucy, you're just hurting yourself."
"Be quiet, Grey."
Grey Fullbuster smirks at her slyly and says, "Whatever you say, Lucy. Come on, we're all done here and Erza is pissed that you ran off. You know how she gets."
"Ugh, don't remind me. I still have bruises from last time! And she's supposed to protect me…" Lucy said, remembering the time where the Sword Angel had beaten her because she ran away when Grey and Gajeel picked on her mercilessly, but had beaten Grey and Gajeel worse. Gajeel was in a coma for a week!
Of course, Lucy knew why she overreacted. She knew that Erza Scarlet, Angel of the Swords, The Great Titania, cared for her very deeply, even though the red head didn't show it. Not only that, Erza had been ordered by God himself to keep Lucy in line, and that was the only reason God kept her alive. At least…that's what Lucy thought and was told. But people lie.
Do Angels?
Lucy smiles at Grey, "What about Michelle? Is she okay?"
"Lucy, that woman is as tough as any of us. She's fine." Grey informed her, that handsome sly smirk on his face.
Lucy nods, "Where is she?"
"Back in the forest a bit, where we found the abominations."
"Okay, let's go." Lucy answered, following Grey back into the forest. As they walk, Grey looks back at her. He raises any eyebrow at her bloody exterior.
"Got a little carried away, uh?" He inquired, his smirk broadening.
Lucy fixes a death glare that could rival Erza's on him and he turns away, shuddering in fear. "Gajeel thought so too."
"Oh God, you didn't kill Gajeel, did you?" Grey hesitantly replies.
"Not yet. But it's coming."
"You might not want to unless you want Levy to be forever romantically alone."
"You better not say that in front of either of them. They'll skin you alive." But then, Lucy smirks, "Then make love on your dead body."
Grey shudders, "I won't say anything. Ew."
"But there is no way Gajeel could ever get a girl."
"Ain't that the truth. Way to-"
"Ugly!" They say in unison, and they laugh like mad.
"Ha-ha, glad you find it so funny." A cold voice snaps. A heavy dark aura radiates from behind them. Grey and Lucy slowly turn to face Gajeel, whose left eye was twitching in anger. Grey and Lucy look at each other, both gulping.
"H-hey, Gajeel…what's happening?" Grey says nervously, rubbing the back of his neck, while Lucy just slowly backed away. Grey may be almost a brother to her, but she did not want to go head to head with a pissed Gajeel.
"Shut up, popsicle." Gajeel growled and instantly Grey was angry too. He narrowed his dark eyes and stepped forward.
"What did you just call me, iron-head?"
"I called you an icy, cold, dickless popsicle."
"That's it!" Grey roars, charging at Gajeel. Lucy took this golden opportunity to run in the direction Grey was leading her to. She glances back as she runs, smirking in victory as the two boys brawled and didn't even pay attention to the blonde. Lucy turns back and runs straight into a giant clearing, which was inhabited by four gorgeous women. Lucy smiles as her eyes land on the tallest one, a stunning older woman-older being about 22- with long scarlet hair and fierce brown eyes. Erza Scarlet. If there was anyone who could keep men in line, it was her. Gajeel couldn't hurt her. Giggling in relief and nervousness, Lucy smiles brightly at the four.
The first one, who was the shortest, was a cute girl with wild blue hair and bright, big brown eyes. She smiles beautifully at Lucy and yells, "Lu-chan!" But then, taking in her bloody appearance, she frowns worriedly, "That's only the abomination's blood, right?!"
Lucy smiles softly at her best friend, "Yeah, Levy-chan, don't worry." Her smile broadens and she tucks a piece of bloody blonde hair behind her left ear.
The next one was a young woman in a short blue dress; she had beautiful azure hair and gorgeous dark eyes. Her medium-sized soft red lips curl into a sweet smile, "Lucy-san! Great job, taking it on all on your own!"
Lucy's left eye twitches and she says, "You sound like you think I've never fought something alone. And, Juvia, how many times have I told you, you can take off the honorific***!"
The Russian and Hispanic mix nods her head, "Oh, right, I am sorry, Lucy-sa-I-I mean Lucy!"
Lucy smiles, "That's better. Can you wash me down?"
A gorgeous woman steps forward and says in a reprimanding tone, "Lucy! We are going home now; don't ruin your clothes even more!" Her bouncy long blonde hair shimmers in the light of the afternoon sun, and she tsk's. She pats at the wrinkles in her gorgeous poofy pink and white dress and just about sighed in pain.
"Are you okay, Michelle?"
Michelle Lobster of the Lobster family, cousin to Lucy Heartphilia and the Heartphilia family, sighs dramatically and gets teary eyed, "Oh Lucy! You just grow up so fast!"
Lucy sweat drops, "I'm as old as you…"
Erza Scarlet looked at her and said, "Then let's get going. I don't wish to stay here longer than necessary. Where are the boys? I sent Grey to retrieve you." Her glare sent shivers down Lucy's spine and the blonde finds herself backing up.
"U-uh…well you see…"
"Are they fighting?!" Erza demands, eyes narrowing dangerously.
Lucy looks at the ground and plays with a strand of her hair, wishing to be anywhere else other than Erza's fierce glare.
"I am going to take that as a yes." Erza said, before she marched off in the direction of where the boys were fighting.
"Poor Gajeel…" Levy sighed.
"Oh, no Grey-sama!" Juvia practically wailed, eyes tearing up.
Lucy sighed but then smiled, "Let's get going."
