and here we have Aries, who in my opinion deserves a story like this because she is unbelievably passive and gentle. as reflected by her magic. please enjoy


Aries

Aries let loose a small sigh as she watched her fellow spirits training, Taurus and Loke clashed, the bull pressing his strength advantage while Loke made use of his superior speed. They were both powerful, they were both strong, she was not. Their sparring match ended and both opponents bowed to each other. Instantly she used her wool bomb to create a bed of wool that left loke and Taurus perfectly relaxed, the best thing after a hard days training. They both released sounds of gratitude and were asleep within seconds. an hour later Capricorn returned from Earth land, clearly his training with Lucy was complete for the day, he looked upon Loke and Taurus before smiling at Aries.

"I see your magic is as soothing as always Aries, might I request a favour, Lucy is equally tired by her training today, could you help her as well"

Nodding her agreement Aries quickly slipped through her gate using her own magic, she arrived next to Lucy in a small lodge. The owner of her key was already fast asleep,
as were the other members of fairy tail.

"My magic isn't muc Lucy but it can help you rest"

She released a cloud of wool which formed pillows under the heads of each of the guild members. She could see a lot of the tension inside them fade as her magic took effect. She knew it was more than Capricorn asked for, but she thought Lucy might appreciate it anyway. Turning her back on the Cabin Aries decided to take a look at then night sky. It was rare for her to have a chance to explore Earth land on her own.

"Hey Beautiful, what you doing here all on your own, don't you know it's dangerous to be all by yourself"

In the dark Aries realised they probably couldn't see her horns. the young man who spoke was surrounded by a group of similarly dressed individuals. All of them were armed.

"I-Im Fine by myself thank you"

She was annoyed that she couldn't keep a stammer out of her voice but she was feeling a very sinister vibe from all of the men. Luckily the lead man was distracted by one of his group

"hey look, there they are, those Fairy Brats who beat us eight years ago, they really are alive, lets get them while they're asleep"

Aries realised with a start that they were talking about Lucy and her friends. They were all asleep in there lodge and aries felt the pit of her stomach drop as she realised that her magic would dull their awareness. Lucy and her friends would not sense the danger until it was too late.

"Later little girl, we got some payback to dish out"

The men all started walking towards the lodge. Aries panicked and considered retreating back to the spirit world to find Capricorn, but the mages were so close, there was no time. Scraping together her courage she stepped between the mages and Lucy

"I will not allow you to harm Lucy!"

Her voice came out loud and rang with a subtle anger that shocked even Aries, her voice had gone unused for a long time.

"Well alright, we'll play with you to warm up, then move on to the fairy brats"

despite her anger Aries was worried, her magic could work on a lot of enemies at one, but it wasn't enough to defeat them. normally her role would be to distract opponents to make it easier for Loke or Taurus to land a finishing blow. Even so she refused to let Lucy get hurt

"you will not take a step passed me"

Aries released her magic and clouds of wool flowed into the attacking men. each one entered a dream-like state of relaxation the moment her magic touched them. Once each one was contained she held them there. Hours went by and the strain on her magic was beggining to show, but some small part of her refused to back down. Finally the sun rose over the beach, feeling the last of her magic ebb away Aries was forced to return to the Celestial kingdom, she found many of the other spirits waiting for her.

"I apologise for not allowing anyone to assist you Aries, but this was an important moment for you, well done"

Aries realised with a shock that Capricorn and the others must have been watching, she tried to ask the question on her lips but Capricorn answered before she could speak.

"Don't worry, Lucy is awake and aquarius is teaching those would be assassins a valuable lesson, namely not to wake her up so early in the morning"

Aries smiled to herself, she wasn't strong, but she would still protect Lucy with everything she had, in this she was the same as all the others.
