Welcome back lets go see what happening!
"Found anything?" Levy asks Freed, he shakes his head.
"This is much harder since this is Edolas magic we're talking about, if we had access to their resources this would be easier but our magic doesn't work like that, we don't usually use items, we can create them or summon them but usually we have our own magic that fuels them"
"I know"
"Actually I think I just thought of something" Freed says realising.
"What?" Levy asks.
"We need Lucy" Levy doesn't quite understand but Levy head up and gets her, Lucy didn't understand what was going on but came down.
"What's up guys?" she asks Levy looks at Freed not knowing his plan.
"Lucy could I please speak to Loki?" he asks her, she nods.
"Sure I'll get him"
"Open, gate of the lion!" she calls Loki appears immediately.
"What do you need beautiful?" he asks flirting.
"I need you actually Loki, I need to ask you something"
"Okay" Loki says as Freed casts a silence rune around them, he tells them what's going on and implores them not to say anything, Lucy is shocked looking over to the sleeping Lisanna.
"What can we do?"
"Keep quiet so Mira doesn't kill us for starters but secondly Loki I need to know about your ring"
"My ring?"
"Yes"
"Well it amplifies my strength, and gives me the ability to perform Regulus Punch"
"Were does the magic come from?"
"Well I got the ring at first so I could use magic without drawing on my own energy, so I didn't fade when I was trapped in this world, lots of people without magic in Fiore get such items so they can act better than others, me personally I did it so I could be close to magic and even join a guild for protection"
"Of course!" Freed says hitting himself in the face with the book.
"Why didn't we think of that?" he says shaking his head.
"So there are items that themselves are imbued with magic that don't need magic from the user" Levy says.
"Yeah" Loki confirms.
"Where do you get such items?" Freed asks.
"Magic stores, they're littered around most towns, more ones with high mage populations, except Magnolia they don't have one here"
"It's true I used to visit them in every town I visited after I ran away from home, it's how I got a few of my silver keys and other magic items" Lucy says.
"So how does this help us?" Levy asks, Freed stops to think about it.
"I'm not sure, we know there are such items in this world like Lullaby, even celestial keys have to have magic in them to work, Lisanna's soul would have returned to this world as magic energy, but it also would have gone into another item, since the original function of the ring in Edolas was to turn it into magic, that magic couldn't have become absorbed into the ground since it isn't that type of magic, its stronger and therefore would have needed a tether. I've known Bixlow enough to know souls can't attach themselves to people only objects, even fragments would have had to have found an object, which means somehow we need to locate a part of Lisanna trapped within this object and re-attach it to her"
"Okay one, how do we find this object? Two, how do we re-attach it to Lisanna? And three, how do we do any of this without killing her? I mean this is literally her soul we are talking about, it must be very delicate" Lucy says.
"They are" Bixlow says, no one had seen him enter the circle so they jumped.
"They are?" Levy asked.
"Yeah, souls are extremely fragile even the slightest touch is painful to a soul I couldn't imagine the agony of those who were tortured with that ring" he shakes his head not even wanting to think about it.
"Okay back to locating it I think I know who to talk to" Levy says.
"Who?" Lucy asks.
"Cana" she says Loki nods in agreement.
"Yes with her card powers she may be able to locate the missing part of Lisanna's soul"
"I'll get her" Lucy says, Loki remaining while Freed got a map of Fiore, a confused Cana holding a bottle of booze was dragged in by Lucy.
"What's going on?" she asked.
"No time we need your help" Freed says.
"With what?" she asked seeing the urgency.
"We need you to do a locator spell for Lisanna" Loki says, Cana looked behind her at Lisanna sleeping with Pantherlily on the couch.
"Is this a joke?" she asked.
"No" Lucy and Levy say.
"Can we explain this to you later?" Bixlow asks.
"Later, Later" his dolls chant.
"Okay fine I'll trust you all on this" putting down her bottle Cana pulled out one of her cards, she closed her eyes focusing, with her eyes still closed she threw her card, which did a flip and then imbedded itself into the map right in the middle of Magnolia were the guild was.
"We need you to do it again" Freed says.
"Why? She's right there" Cana says.
"Not all of her, I know this is difficult but part of Lisanna isn't here and we need to find that part, it'll be faint but we're hoping your magic will pick it up" Loki says, Cana nods still not knowing what the hell was going on but she took out three more cards, closing her eyes again she mumbles something this time before throwing them, again all of them fluttering around before imbedding themselves in the map, two of them with the first, one further away in the town of Waratah.
"You did it!" Levy cheers even Cana was impressed with herself.
"Guess I did" she says taking a swig of her drink.
"Let's go!" Lucy says.
"No we can't" Bixlow says.
"Why not?"
"If all of us suddenly went out it would be noticed and we are trying to keep a low profile so the she-demon doesn't skin us alive, so the Thunder Legend will be taking this job"
"Are you sure?" Levy asks, Freed nods in agreement.
"Yes we will locate the item and discover a way to put Lisanna back together"
"You found it?" Lisanna asks getting up off the couch.
"Yeah Cana did" Lucy says.
"Wow how many people were told since I went to sleep?" Lisanna asks.
"About three, Cana will make four but she doesn't know yet" Bixlow says.
"Yeah and I'm getting a little impatient on that" she says.
"I'm coming too" Lisanna says.
"We can handle it" Freed says.
"It's my soul" she reminds them.
"Levy, Lucy, Loki, Lily and Cana you remain here and keep my sister busy, I'll tell her I'm going but she's going to be worried so I need you guys to keep her busy"
"We're dead" Lucy moans.
Haha! Okay review please tell me what you are thinking! Next chapter up soon.
