Chapter 3: Changed
3rd Person's POV
Fluttering her eyes open, Lucy suddenly remembered where she was. She took a glance at the environment until she realized she's inside her apartment in the city of Crocus. Sighing, she remembered how she saw Maria Spica then she fainted, but who did saved her? Lucy's face suddenly became serious as she tried to recall what happened days ago, but she seemed to not remember it.
She then walked inside her bathroom and grabbed her toothbrush and toothpaste. While, brushing her teeth, she immediately noticed a color of red to her eyes. No, it's not even a speck nor just a clouded vision of hers. Gasping, she accidentally loosed grip at her glass, making its shattered remains on the floor. Her eyes widen when she saw the red liquid that gushed when a shard accidentally scratched her delicate skin.
Her eyes' color is the same as the blood.
Trying to erase her shaken thoughts, she immediately washed her face, hoping that her eyes are still brown, not red. But she's wrong. She suddenly remembered someone with that kind of eyes… That color seemed to be just a coincidence for this. She remembered that little girl, Maria Spica.
Disappointed, she just went outside, trying to prevent herself to be cut, she went to the kitchen and grabbed a broom and dustpan to clean the mess inside the bathroom. After cleaning, she just changed her dirty clothes to a simple yellow floral sundress, then fitted her nice yellow flats that seemed to match her floral sundress.
Grabbing her white shoulder bag, she then took a nice watch outside the city. Then she'll train later…or maybe tomorrow. Taking a glance at the rowdy stores outside, she went inside a decent café that its cakes made her mouth water. She then went inside and immediately ordered a blueberry cheesecake and hot milk chocolate that made her grin in glee. After ordering, she then ate it with delight and went outside to inspect the other shops. And also shop for some training items for her.
After shopping, she then went inside a magic shop that made her felt nostalgia upon remembering the memory when she bought Plue in Hargeon. She took a nice look inside the shop and a shining object caught her attention, making her hold the item like precious porcelain and she immediately recognize what is it. It's a katana that can seem to easily cut things with just a single slash.
"Ah, it seemed that it caught your attention. Well, that sword is called Masamune. It's a powerful sword that can easily cut things with just a single slash. It also holds a mysterious magic that the others can't force it to activate so that is being not sold to others. If you want that, I can sell it for you in 300,000 jewels, if you want." The shop clerk gleefully said to her while pointing at the sword. Her eyes widen at the sudden knowing that the sword had a mysterious magic that others can't activate. She then tried to unsheathe it but it seems that it can't be because of a seal that made her groan in disappointment. She then went to the key corner and spotted a silver key that have a shape of wings at the end. It also have a carved dove on it, making her recognize this key. "Oh, the key of the dove, Columba." She muttered to herself after seeing the 50,000 jewels prize of it.
She then again went around to see if she can buy some equipment for training. She now saw two red bracelets that seemed to be magical. Its red and it have golden outlines and a onyx pearl intersecting both ends. After grabbing the katana, the key and the bracelets, she then grabbed wallet inside her bag. She then gave the shop clerk a shining black card that made her smile widely at him. "Do you accept credit cards?"
Strapping her katana to her back, she now hid her key in her bag and she wore both bracelets. She then noticed that the time is now 12:35 noon, making her groan in disappointment because she want to shop more but hearing her stomach grumble, she went to a Italian Restaurant. She then ordered Lasagna and pizza. After satisfying herself, she then went inside a clothing store.
"What a blah, blah name…Contemporary Styles." She muttered to herself before going inside and checking the clothes available. She then grabbed a sleeveless white shirt, a checkered short jeans, black boots and a black necktie. I then tried those and it actually turned satisfying, for me. I then went to the cashier and giving her 160,000 jewels, because I don't want to waste my credit cards for nothing.
After the clothing store, I then went to an open field to form a contract with Columba. She placed her bag on the grassy ground as she held the key, pointed forward as she started to chant.
"I am the person who connects the road to the Celestial world…Thou shalt respond to the calling and pass through the gate. Open a door to the Spirit of the Dove, Columba." Lucy mumbled slowly as a bright white light enveloped her as white feathers started to appear in front of her. After some seconds, a girl with white hair, and gray eyes appeared in front of Lucy. She's wearing a long pearl white robe that passes through her feet. She has big white angelic wings at her back, making Lucy gape at the beauty of the spirit.
"You've called?" Columba said as Lucy nodded to her, making her wings spread. "I'm the Spirit of the Dove, Columba. Shall we now continue in making contract?" Columba said making Lucy's face serious as Lucy started to listen to Columba. "I'm commonly active all days, except Monday. So, all days except Monday will do." She said as she disappeared in a bright light, leaving Lucy smiling like an idiot. As she started to walk away to her apartment, making her sigh in exhaustion as Lucy slept early, dreaming in a world full of swords and keys…
Days passed as Lucy started training, making her water magic useful and it seemed that she can summon many spirits once, with the help of her loyal spirit, Loke and the motherly guidance of her new friend, Columba. She also tried to fight using swords and it seemed that Lucy can master it as she started to fight using swords and rapiers. She also knew that the red bracelet can grant her the powerful magic that she seemed to once read about it. The Warp Magic, a kind of Illusion Magic that grants her to trick opponents by making an illusion of its fear. She also learned some random spells from a book that she just saw one day, making her stronger than before.
She looked at herself as she continued drying her hair, her red eyes that seemed to be darker and fiery as ever, her dirty blonde hair that made her look more matured. Her eyes turned to her more lean and skinny figure that everyone can die to have it. She grinned to herself as she went to her closet and wore her clothes that she bought at Contemporary Styles and it indeed look great to her, despite that her short jeans is practically, short but looks presentable. She tied her necktie hard as she finally posed in front of her mirror, looking wilder than ever. She pinned her hair to a side ponytail that kept her bangs in contact with her right eye.
"Hmm, it's done…" She said to herself as she went outside and out to the forest she goes, of course, for a dangerous adventure. She kept humming a song until she came to a stop when she saw something glow at a spring. Her eyes widen upon at the sight of the spring. "What the hell…I never saw this spring before…" She mumbled and went near to the spring. Holding out her hand, she felt that someone is calling her, the voice seemed mysterious but it's very soothing and caring as she felt her fee touched the water, but instead of sinking under the cool water that made her shiver a bit, she walking OVER the water.
"Water…water…water…" She kept muttering to herself as she felt her consciousness left her, but before she felt her sight darken, a pair of soft and warm arms help her to stand up still as her consciousness left her…
Lucy felt her head boom like a bomb inside her head. This feels like a déjà vu for her but she can't seem to remember it. As she opened her eyes, she realized that it's already nighttime and she felt herself wet and floating. It's like she's drenched in the rain but it's not raining. Gasping slightly, she saw tiny and large bubbles ascending from her mouth when she breathes. She felt her dress flowing freely like it was being controlled by the wind. Upon looking at the surroundings, she gasped when she saw the ones who saved her…
"H-how did you saved me?"
