hey there here is chapter three! Hope you will like it and enjoy, don't forget to leave a review on ya way out. (Waves happily)
"You had to what!?" Natsu exclaimed. Lucy sighed. He did have a way of over reacting to things.
"I had to fight a Volken… or two, to get to the shrine where my mother had entrusted the gatekey," she said again.
"B-but, were you hurt?" he stuttered. His worrying was sweet but at times but at times annoying.
"No, I'm here now aren't I?" she said through slightly gritted teeth.
"What else did your mother say about the gatekeys?" he asked all former worry forgotten
"She said that there were more keys out there and that they have been forgotten, or rather erased from the records. They were known as the keys of Ragnarok," she said then continued holding up the black gatekey round her neck. "This is Drake, the black dragon. There are others like Valdryr, the silver wolf, Phiox the gold Phoenix, and Gryph the white Gryphon. All of these key have just been whipped from the history books. To the rest of the world they don't even exist. Mother also said that they hail from a different celestial world, she said that if you call the world where the others come from heaven, and then this other world can be called Valhala." Lucy looked down for a moment; Natsu knew she was holding something back.
"What else Lucy?" he was very serious now. Lucy looked up hearing the tone in his voice.
"They are very powerful," she bit her lip "More powerful that the spirit king."
Natsu's head was spinning; more powerful than the spirit king? Lucy stared at him, his eyes were unfocused and steam was coming from his head, as a result of over thinking. She pondered whether to about the last key or not? Her mother hadn't been sure if it existed or was not destroyed. But Lucy came to the decision not to tell him, not yet anyway. It was at this moment that happy came flying in through the window.
"Hey, Natsu no fair! I want to spend time with Lucy too!" he wailed landing on the dragon slayer's head. "Even though she's weird."
"I heard that stupid cat!" Lucy yelled, and Natsu laughed as she started to chase the blue exceed around the room. Lucy soon turned her fury onto Natsu and then he too was running for his life from the spirit mage.
Lucy lay down on her back in bed. Natsu was at her side, snoring faintly as he slept. Happy was curled up on his chest and with each breath Natsu took; Happy would rise and fall in a slow, calming rhythm. Lucy turned her head to look at Natsu's sleeping face. He looked so content. She smiled at the slight twitches his face made as he dreamt about something.
Lucy gently got up from her bed. It was five in the morning, but after her chase with Natsu and Happy, she had dropped right off; despite the fact she had only had five hours sleep she felt well rested. It must have been a good five hours. But now that she was awake, things prevented her from sleeping. She couldn't stop thinking about what her mother had said. She made her way over to the bathroom and felt for the light switch before flicking it on. Lucy looked back at the sleeping forms in her bed, making sure they had stayed that way.
She opened the draw under the sink and pulled out her mother's letter, and began to read the rest of it. Before when she had received the letter, she hadn't had the mind space to read the other pages, but now she felt like reading more. What did her mother have to say about the keys of Ragnarok?
Lucy finished reading and rested her head in her hands. Her mother had said that the keys will only appear when summoned if and only if they like the summoner. She went and reread a part of the letter.
Valdryr the silver wolf is hidden in a labyrinth under a desert called Sky Fall.
Lucy had never heard of a desert called Sky Fall. But she was determined to find it and keep the key from falling into the hands of 'the dark ones' as her mother had called them. She held her head in her hands again and her mind went blank for what to do next. Things had just become more difficult than they were already.
Natsu stirred and turned on his side, feeling the lack of warmth on Lucy's side of the bed, he cracked open an eye and traced the room till he saw a light on in the bathroom. He pulled himself up onto his elbows and squinted at Lucy sitting on the edge of the bath with her head in her hands.
"Hey?" Lucy felt a hand on her shoulder and looked up. "Are you Okay?" Natsu's face was concerned and his body was hesitant.
"It's nothing Natsu, but thanks anyway," she said. Natsu stared at her for a moment then went back to bed, Lucy followed, promptly Kicking him out of bed.
