Outside the Forest of Lumen
Lucy P.O.V

Okay, so I had come to the Forest of Lumen, now what? I seriously had no idea. I just stood there like a complete jerk, staring in awe at the beautiful scene laid out in front of me. The Forest seemed to glow with a warmth that was rather familiar, however, I just couldn't put a finger on it.

'So, you came, Lucy,'

I spun around, my hands instinctively grabbing my keys as I turned to face the person.

'Mavis!?' I gasped, 'what are you doing here?!'

The first master grinned at me mischievously, with obviously no intention of answering my question. I pouted in annoyance as she turned, and glided of into the forest. Groaning in frustration, I followed her.

As soon as I entered the forest, it enveloped me in a golden light sent spasms of warmth through my body. Wisps of light zipped through the trees and when one of them stopped, I got a brief glimpse of a tiny fairy with shimmering wings before it flew off into the distance. I saw Mavis ahead of me, heading towards the waterfall and I instantly chased after her, calling for her to slow down.

Suddenly, she stopped, making me crash into her, but I never did. Instead I fell right through her! I felt as if I had been dunked in cold water by a super angry Aquarius and I fell onto the ground spluttering.

'What the hell?' I asked.

Mavis simply turned to look at me, it seemed as though she didn't even notice me go through her!

'Lucy!' She said with a shocked expression on her face, 'I'm so sorry, I didn't see you there! Why were you following me?'

I sweat dropped. Wasn't she the one who told me to follow her? Then I remembered, she never told me to follow her, I had just assumed. I was about to answer when she interrupted me.

'But I guess it's good you did, because you were supposed to.'

At this, I fell down anime style and inwardly facepalmed. Suddenly, a pink fairy with white wings landed on my shoulder.

'You'd better get used to it,'she said, 'she's always like this. It's so annoying!' The little fairy giggled, her laugh sounded like chimes, tinkling in the wind.

'I'm Aerobella, but you can call me Bella'

'I'm Lucy,' I replied, staring in awe at the elegant fairy in front on me.

'Ok Lulu!' She laughed, 'can I call you Lulu?'

'Sure!'

'Mavis! Can I give Lulu a tour of the forest? Please!' Begged Bella, pulling her best puppy eyes.

Mavis smiled gleefully, she already knew that Bella had something up her sleeve, 'sure!'

Normal P.O.V

Bella cheered and flew off. Pulling a very flustered Lucy behind her. However, as Mavis had predicted, a tour was not what Bella was planning to give Lucy. While Lucy was admiring the view, she pushed her into the water.

Lucy P.O.V

I was looking at the view, and the next thing I knew, I was dunked into freezing water. Seriously, I am so gonna kill that pesky fairy. In the process of falling into the water, I had also lost my keys. One thing I didn't want to suffer from again was a punishment from Aquarius. Wait, Aquarius? I quickly swam down to my keys which rested on a rock and grabbed Aquarius's key.

'Aerobella...' I rose from the water, my head facing downwards to cover the evil smirk painted on my face, but she must've noticed the dark aura I emitted, because with a squeal, she zipped into the trees.

'Open, gate of the Water Bearer! Aquarius!' I yelled.

'Don't you dare lose my key again, Lucy.'

Aquarius appeared from the water and threw a gigantic tidal wave towards the flying figure of Bella. Bella's wings got drenched in water, and she fell onto the ground, hard.

'Don't call me for two weeks, I've got a date with my boyfriend. Boyfriend,' she repeated haughtily, before disappearing with a poof. I sighed, did she have to repeat that?

I stalked over to the dripping form of Bella and grinned.

'That was payback for what you did before'

Bella groaned, 'That's unfair!' She whined, pouting, 'You used magic!'

'There was never a rule not to,' I replied as I walked towards Mavis.

Mavis looked apologetically at the little fairy lying on the ground before turning to Lucy. Her face suddenly turned serious, 'Lucy, I need to discuss with you the reason you were called here.'

I nodded, that question had been nagging at the back of my head for a while.

'Have you ever wondered why my spirit is still on Earth and not in heaven?'

I nodded.

'Its because I have one last job before I can leave for Heaven. That job is to pass on my magic to someone appropriate and train them. This person had to be a Celestial Spirit mage who was well practised in their magic. The magic that I am about to teach you is Golden Light Magic. This magic is the ability to use the starts, and together with Celestial Spirit magic, the power to summon the stars you will become the Keeper of the Keys.'

I stared at Mavis in shock. The Keeper of the Keys was a myth, it was believed that he/she would have the power to eliminate all darkness, including Zeref. And here Mavis was, saying that I could become the Keeper of the Keys, me, who was kicked out of her team for being weak, the person who always needed to be saved.

'We begin training tomorrow at dawn. Be ready.'
