"Athena," Zeus' booming voice echoed around the humongous room.
"Father," the goddess replied and bowed her head slightly.
The throne room was as big as ever, with twelve thrones forming a 'U' shape around a hearth, which Hestia tended to. All eleven Gods were already seated (some waiting patiently, some impatiently) on their thrones. Which meant...
"Looks like dear old Athena's late, huh?" Poseidon- that sorry excuse for a god- smirked, his sea green eyes twinkling.
She merely ignored him as she lowered herself on her slightly-less-than-comfortable throne. "As you all have heard," she addressed the gods. "A mortal by the name of Lucy Heartfillia has somehow obtained an Olympian key. My key, to be precise." Athena paused to wait for the mutterings of other gods to cease.
"How dare she!"
"Weren't the keys destroyed many years ago?"
"We should just crush her with my chariot."
Athena cleared her throat. The Coucil immediately went silent. "This is obviously a great problem- you all know what happened the last time a mortal has obtained all twelve keys."
Grim looks were exchanged all around the room.
"Just kill the punk already!" Ares roared impatiently.
"Silence, my son," Zeus thundered, his usual clear blue eyes clouding up. He knitted his eyebrows as he turned to face the wisdom goddess. "What's your take on this?"
Athena pursed her lips. "I say we wait and see. We can't kill an innocent mortal."
"I agree," Demeter nodded solemnly.
"But she's hardly innocent!" Hermes protested. "She holds an Olympian Key!"
"Oh my gods, you can't kill Lucy!" Aphrodite screeched as she fished out a magazine from her hot pink handbag- The Weekly Sorcerer it read. She flipped to a page with a huge photo of the blonde and a boy with pink hair sharing an umbrella with the caption 'BEGINNINGS OF A NEW LOVE?'. "NaLu is an Aphrodite approved couple. They're so cute together!" she squealed.
Apollo whistled. "At least she's hot."
"All in favour of not killing Lucy Heartfillia?"
Nine Olympians raised their hand in consent.
"Alright. Lucy Heartfillia shall live... until further judgement," Zeus concluded.
-meanwhile-
She had spent the past few days looking for an answer to this burning question of her's- what the heck were these 'God Keys'? Of course, nobody in Fairy Tail had a clue of what was going on.
"Can I fight this Arena?"
"Is there such thing as a fish goddess?"
"What kind of armour was she wearing?"
Lucy sighed and walked away.
"Well... you could always try the Magic Library," Levy suggested.
So there she was now. As usual, the sheer size of the library took Lucy's breath away. It was amazing how millions- no, billions- of books and scrolls were stored in just a single building. It's unique structure and design never failed to impress the blonde. Lucy then shook her head. She wasn't here to admire the architecture. She was here to search for answers!
"Requip... Celestial Spirits..." she muttered as she went down the list of books on 'Types of Holder Magic'. There wasn't any mention of god keys or Olympians! Until...
"Gods and Keys?"
Do review! Erm are the chapters too short or something? Thank you :)
