OoOoOoO
Lucy sighed as she gleefully skipped towards the guild. Today is December 25th and it's Christmas and since today is Christmas, she'll spend her whole day with her NEW boyfriend, Gray Fullbuster. 'Take that Sala!' Lucy thought in victory but then she stopped in her tracks to see a familiar orange haired girl in front of her. 'Speak of the devil' Lucy glared at Sala who glared back at her.
"Well, well, well, if it isn't Heartfilia" Sala said darkly narrowing her eyes at Lucy. "Hello Salamanca, long time, no see. At last you have revealed your true color" Lucy glared harder at Sala. "You're a boyfriend stealer!" Sala spat while pointed an accusing finger at Lucy who just chuckled "Excuse me? Now I'm the one who's being blamed? You're the one who cheated on Gray!" Sala gritted her teeth "Well I wouldn't have cheated on him if he would stop talking about you all the time!" This caught Lucy off guard and Sala noticed it but continued anyways "That's right! He's been babbling about you every day and there wasn't a single without him saying the name Lucy Heartfilia!"
*SLAP*
Sala, on the ground, was holding her left cheek where it hurt while on the other hand, Lucy had her left hand still in position after she had slapped Sala with her eyes covered by her hair. A crowd was forming around them by Lucy paid no mind at the stares and whispers of the people. "Gray might not live without saying my name…" suddenly Lucy's head rose up enough for anyone to see her serious, determined and teary eyed eyes "…but that isn't your right when to tell him to stop!"
Sala glared darkly at Lucy still holding her hand on her cheek. Then an idea popped into her head which made her smirk darkly. Lucy noticed this and didn't like what she saw "What is it now Salamanca? Another trickery in your sleeves?" Lucy got ready in a fighting stance. The crowd then gave more space for the two girls, in case they fight.
Sala slowly stood up wobbling a bit "Maybe, Heartfilia, maybe" Sala then raised her hands above her head then a dark small orb came out above her hands and lightning started appearing around it. The crowd then suddenly lessened when the wind started being so violent.
OoOoOoO
Gray tapped impatiently on the table where he was waiting for Lucy to come and fetch him. Shouldn't it be him to fetch her? No… cause' he just got back from a short mission just around town doing some errands and Lucy said that she would meet up with before after 9:00 a.m., but what time is it? It's 9:06 a.m.! Unbelievable! Gray sighed 'I guess I'm just excited to be with her on our first Christmas' he thought sighing once again.
He then looked outside and noticed the wind going violent. 'It's a fair weather today, I wonder why it's windy?' Gray took a sip of his soda (he promised Lucy not to drink anymore) then noticed the pattern of the snow on the wind. He took a closer looked spat out his soda 'No! It can't be!' Gray thought "Lucy!" Gray ran out of the guild shocking his guild members.
"What's with him?" Wakaba asked as he took another sip of his beer. Macao shrugged and took a deep breath of his cigarette and blow it out "Whatever it is, it's got something to do with Lucy" Natsu's head sprang up from what he was eating and turned to Macao "Hatt ya mein Mak-*gulp*-cao?" Macao shrugged again "Well, he did shout Lucy's name so…" before he can even finish his sentence, he found Natsu gone "C'mon Happy!" Happy then quickly flew towards Natsu holding a fish in his mouth "Ka-mingh Ma-Chu!" both Wakaba and Macao sweat dropped at the two.
Mira sighed as she saw the two ran off "Well, there goes those two again. What do you think Erza?" Erza took another sip of her beer and looked at where the two ran off. Erza said nothing as she eyed where the two ran off. That's when she decided to leave "Where you going Erza?" Erza glanced over her shoulder smirking "Business. Catch ya later" with that she left.
OoOoOoO
Lucy protected herself from the wind still standing on where she stood before. "Well? What do you think Heartfilia? Isn't it wonderful? This is what I call the Orb of Helpless State!" Lucy's eyes widened once she saw the orb getting bigger. "This is my deadliest attack and no one, as in NO ONE, EVER survived this!" Sala laughed darkly and hysterically to herself.
Lucy gritted her teeth 'Is this her madness? I thought she wasn't a mage!' Lucy then took out her key of Leo "Open the gate of the Lion! Leo!" Leo's gate opened and then Loke jumped out of the seal and landed on his right foot. He slowly stood up and looked back at Lucy "Why hello Lucy, lovely as ever" Loke teased making her blush. Lucy quickly snapped out of it "Loke enough jokes! She's going to kill us all!" Lucy pointed at Sala who was still laughing hysterically to herself making both Loke and Lucy sweat drop at her.
Loke smirked uneasily and pushed back his sunglasses further into his face "Don't worry, this will be finished in no time Lucy" he then positioned his finger at Sala "Regulus Beam!" a beam was released from Loke's ring but instead of hitting Sala it was absorbed by the orb. "What the-?" Sala smirked "HA! That's not going to work! Nothing is going to work! Hahaha!"
Just then a familiar voice was heard "Lucy!" Gray ran to Lucy holding her shoulders hardly but gently "Are you okay?" Gray asked with worry in his eyes. Lucy nodded "Yeah I'm fine, but Sala…" Gray glanced at Sala who was laughing again hysterically "What's with her?" Lucy asked Gray who just frowned "She's been consumed by her madness"
"What do you mean Gray?" Loke asked as he saw the objects around them then started to move around. Gray released Lucy and turned around fully "Sala once told me that she had madness inside of her and she hasn't released it in a long time. Nowadays, it's been dying to be free and consume her all over. It was all her father's fault. He was the one who put her into this madness before he died because of her. And right now, what you see is…"
"The Orb of Helpless State" the three said in unison
"…she's a mage who uses orbs and elementals, it is known to be the rarest mages around Fiore. Now that she's consumed by her madness, she's now containing the magic of darkness. We should stop her this instant! Or else… she'll consume of all Magnolia" Gray said as they all eyed Sala.
"How can we? She's just sucked my light beam into that thing!" Loke pointed at the orb. Gray narrowed his eyes "She said, that it's like a black hole, nothing can escape it. She'll both kill us and herself including whole Magnolia" Loke gritted his teeth in annoyance while Lucy looked in worry. "But I thought she wasn't a mage" Gray frowned at Lucy "She's just hiding that from everybody she knows, but eventually she told me that"
Just then Natsu came running towards them from behind Sala with Happy flying above him "LUCY! ARE YOU OKAY?" Natsu exclaimed 'til he lost his footing when he touched the ice cold floor which made his go straight towards Sala while Gray, Lucy and Loke sweat dropped at his clumsiness.
"What are you looking at?" Sala looked behind her to see what they were looking at only to find something hit her on her legs making her loose her balance and fall down and the orb disappeared. Natsu clearly ignored Sala and the situation and ran up to Lucy "Lucy! What did ice breath did to you!" Natsu exclaimed in front of Lucy but Lucy clearly ignored him and ran to Sala.
Sala slowly sat up shaking her head a little "Wha-? What happened?" Sala asked herself she then saw Lucy running towards her with Gray slowly following from behind. "Sala! Are you okay?" Lucy asked assisting her to sit up. "Lucy?" Lucy smiled and hugged Sala "I don't care whether you hate me or not, as long as you're okay" Lucy said and Sala, touched by Lucy's words, cried into Lucy's arms "I'm sorry Lucy! I'm so sorry!" Sala cried and Lucy just shushed her soothingly.
Gray smiled at the new acquaintances "So… What did I miss?" Natsu asked rubbing the back of his head "Yeah, the whole place is a mess!" Happy said being observant and Loke just chuckled at their obliviousness. Gray smirked "You missed a lot, fire breath" Natsu glared at Gray and took a bundle of snow into his arms and made snowballs and threw one at Gray which hit him on the head.
Everyone went silent as Gray's dark aura became obvious "Gray?" Lucy looked in worry at Gray who had his eyes hidden by his bangs. He then chuckled darkly and face Natsu holding up his hand to Natsu "You're going down flame boy! Ice Make: Snowballs!" just then a seal came out of his hand and infinite snowballs were shooting at Natsu "Kyahh!" Natsu cried trying to dodge Gray's attack on him then again, somebody hit Gray from the head again and turned around only to find Erza throwing a snowball up and down by one hand. "Enough drama, time for action!" Once Erza exclaimed action she threw a snowball at Gray but this time he dodged it and hit Loke.
Loke, wanting for revenge, threw a snowball at Erza but went straight for Lucy who threw back at Loke only to hit Natsu and it started, a snowball fight. Lucy laughed as she threw a snowball at Gray but was hit back by Sala who giggled. Everybody started enjoying throwing snowballs at each other.
Just like Snowballs and Silver Plates, it doesn't only mean literally. It has another meaning, actually two more meanings, one is me being the oh so rich girl (silver plate) of Gray and Gray is my cold hearted ice (snowball) and the other is that even though a plate has a straight top, unlike a bowl, it still can hold snowballs, even though the snowballs melt, it still catches the water, like somebody who can hold on into who he/she loves, but when it overflows, it means they have a never ending love… Just like Snowballs and Silver Plates.
OoOoOoO
