Lucy punched only for Mira to block her incoming fist grabbing it. Lucy saw this and grabbed the Take-over mage's wrist and slammed her on the ground with little effort. Erza soon came in and Slashed only for Lucy to jump just above the slash hitting Erza with her wing causing her to stumble back.
Lucy put her hand out and let red liquid pour from her fingers and run down her forearm forming a gauntlet of sorts with sharp claws. "GAUNTLET" Lucy called as she rushed Erza punching with the same arm shattering the sword and sending her back tumbling away.
"Don't forget me!" Lucy turned to see Mira charging a dark energy ball in her hands.
"SOUL EXTINCTOR" Mira called out the spell and fired a powerful beam of pure dark energy. Lucy watched as it came and jumped over it so her back was facing the beam and flew straight to Mira and slamming into her gut head first spinning as Mira tumbled back as well.
Mira and Erza stopped for a second as they both stood to the sides of the Fallen angel. Said angel looked between the two with a gleeful look. "Don't give up just yet, I'm having way to much fun!" Lucy said as she smiled even wider.
Erza glared harder and focused her energy. "REQUIP: FLIGHT ARMOUR" Erza rushed at insane speeds as Lucy matched the speed and let her gauntlet morph into a blade as another twin blade formed in the other hand. Clashing at high speed they kept clashing swords until Erza was knocked back and Lucy rushed her. Her blades disappearing and going for a straight punch.
Lucy smiled widely as Erza blocked her incoming attack with her blade. She watched as Mira jumped over her and fired some flames straight at her. Lucy simply let herself drop down slightly as the flames shot past her and she let her fingers and thumb rest of Erza's stomach. Erza watched in slow motion as Lucy looked up at her and winked before thrusting her palm onto her stomach winding her and shooting her right into Mira making both of them fly up and tumble onto the beach.
Mira stood as she looked Lucy in the eye's with Erza on her knees holding her stomach. Erza growled before standing up and stamping her foot on the ground. Lucy smiled as she floated just above the sand with her black wings slowly flapping.
Mira just took a deep breath before she let her power grow. Lucy watched as she watched the demonic presence greaten as the white haired mage powered up. She saw Mira's appearance morph as her power grew.
"Satan Soul:Halphas!" Mira shouted as the power that covered her broke loose causing Mira to be shown in a new take-over.
"Erza, stay back. I'll take care of her, join in when you can" Mira said as she walked past Erza. Erza watched as she saw Mira's second strongest form taken out in less then a 5 minutes of fighting.
'Is Lucy really freaking Mira out this much?' Erza questioned in her head.
"So, this one's new. Halphas?" Lucy asked as she crossed her arms.
"Say hello to my second strongest form, you can't win against this one" Mira said proudly causing Lucy to smirk in pleasure.
"Wonderful, let's test the power of this stone" Lucy smirked as she rushed at Mira, the take over mage doing the same.
They clashed in the middle causing a shockwave to ensue as they locked hands and pushed each other back. Mira head butted Lucy causing the Fallen angel to stumble back a bit giving Mira enough time to punch her stomach then grabbing the lace of the shirt and flipping her over herself and slamming her into the ground.
Lucy spat out some saliva as the impact got to her before she glared right at Mira and flipped again kicking Mira in the Face getting Mira to let go which she used to her advantage as she grabbed her leg and doing the exact same thing except with way more force.
Lucy didn't give her any time to recover as she grabbed the girls face and dragged her along the ground before throwing her into the cliff by the sea. Lucy smiled at her work before she saw mira charging something in her hand and soon looked up straight at Lucy.
"COSMIC BEAM!" She screamed out and sent out a beam of cosmic energy lucy watched in shock before she glared and put both arms forward.
"SHIELD" She screamed as the same red liquid from before came out and formed a great shield that stopped the beam but made Lucy slide back from the force. The shield and beam were stuck like that as Erza watched from the sidelines.
"What kind of Magic is that?" Erza asked herself.
The beam stopped and Lucy let the Shield come back to her body as a liquid. Lucy watched as Mira walked forward from towards her.
"Give up already, you can't win demon" Mira said as she glared at Lucy.
Lucy growled as she knew she was right. This was just one, as soon as the red head got better, staying to fight would be suicide. Lucy's eye darted between the two fairies as she thought about what to do.
"You'd think so huh?" A new voice said.
All eyes went straight to the edge of the water as Sayla stood there in all her glory.
"Sayla?!" Lucy screamed in confusion.
Sayla glared at the Fallen Angel and Lucy whimpered as she stammered back.
"You are not in full control of your curse yet, I said you may take care of the situation with the mages. I never thought you'd actually fight them, are you stupid!?" Sayla yelled in rage.
Lucy looked down as she growled in annoyance causing Sayla to sigh, she turned to Mira as said mage was watching in rage and confusion.
"SIT" Sayla said in a demanding voice. Mira as if on cue sat on the ground and struggled to stand up.
"What's going on?!" Mira said trying to fight the control.
"Mira!" Erza said as she ran to the white haired mage only for Sayla to appear right in front of her.
"FREEZE" Sayla said in the same demanding voice and Erza froze on the spot. The two mages were going nowhere.
"Now then, Lucy! Master is waiting" She said as Lucy nodded and walked towards the horned woman who glared as she watched the demon walk towards her. She nodded her head towards the sea and Lucy started going towards the water.
"WAIT!" Mira shouted before the two could go in.
Sayla looked over and saw Mira was fighting back the control. She had a single knee up and was struggling to get the second up.
"We're not done" Mira growled lowly.
"I'm very sorry that my guildmate egged you on, but she is not at her full potential as of yet. She still needs another couple years before she's ready for a mages of you two's caliber" Sayla said facing the Strauss.
"I don't give a shit, you messed with a Fairy tail mage. You will pay" Mira said still struggling.
"You determination is strong and very comendible but…" Sayla dragged on as she walked towards Mira and was soon in front of her. She put a hand on the takeovers shoulder and amplified her power causing the white haired mage to fall down to both knees.
"You would never win" Sayla said as she bent down and looked into Mira's eyes menacingly. Mira shook as she looked into her eyes.
Sayla stood back straight and walked towards Lucy who was standing by the water's edge and they both walked under with both mages watching.
Erza looked at the disappearing figures and then back at Mira who was looking at the ground absolutely terrified.
'What have we gotten ourselves into?'
/Tartaros Guild Castle\
Lucy and Sayla walked along the red carpet as Demon knights lined the halls. They all had longswords with red and gray armour, a giant shield on their back with the Tartaros Logo in red on the shield. The helm covered their faces which was pure black except for two glowing red eyes, the helm also had the difference of long sharp horns or mountain goat like horns as well.
The two etherious women came to a giant door with a giant Skeleton lancer guarding it. The skeleton stood at least at 10ft towering over all the knights with a giant dual headed spear that was a foot taller then it. The armour it wore was pure black with red gems in the shoulder pads and chest.
Sayla looked up at the Guard who nodded his head in respect. "Lady Sayla, the master is waiting" The skeleton said in a raspy voice without moving his mouth.
"Of course, thank you. Come Lucy" Sayla gestured as the guard opened the doors and they both walked in, Lucy looking a little more hesitant.
The room was gigantic, it was dark lighting with torches lining the red carpet on every pillar leading to a throne made of gold and rubies, on the seat sat E.N.D., Etherious Natsu Dragneel. The master of Tartaros. He had his cheek on his palm in his left hand as his right tapped the arm of the throne impatiently. Next to him stood Mard Geer and Jackal, both of them members of the demon gates and Mard Geer was actually in charge of the guilds armies. (A/N: The guilds leadership will be explained next chapter with a short explanation on the inner workings of the guild)
Sayla walked with Lucy following close behind, Lucy saw that her husband was less than pleased. She saw his green eyes have a slight irritation in them. She wanted to avoid his sight but it was extremely difficult.
"My dear, I've brought Lucy" Sayla said as she came to stand sit on one of the two smaller thrones beside the bigger throne.
"So we see" Mard Geer said as he glared down at the fallen angel.
Natsu soon stood from his seat and walked towards Lucy as she flinched in anticipation. Natsu continued until he was right in front of her.
"Do you know what you could have done?" Natsu asked.
"Yes sir" Lucy said.
"Really? Cause I don't think you do, with your little confrontation with Scarlet and Strauss. You could have easily alerted one of Alvarezes spies to our awakening. Zeref could now be fully aware and have his security doubled causing Irene or any of our other spies to crumble!" Natsu said raising his voice as he finished his sentence. His power grew causing Lucy to drop to her knees as she bowed her head.
"I'm sorry my husband, my foolishness may have gotten a companion and the guild in danger. But those humans remind me of my former self, I hated my former self. I was weak without the philosopher's stone. But now I can't stand the sight of humans. Please, I ask your forgiveness" Lucy said as her head was on the ground. Natsu sighed as he pinched the bridge of his nose.
"Stand" Natsu commanded as he turned to walk back to his seat.
Lucy stood shakily as her knee's wobbled from feeling her husbands power. Jackal and Sayla were sweating from the power and Mard was clenching his hands trying to keep himself calm.
"Lucy, The Philosopher's stone wasn't to fall to you. It was meant to fall to myself or mard geer when either of us died and we need the extra power. But when you found this castle, the stone turned you into a etherious, giving you all its powers. You have yet to learn the limits and are barely able to breath after using soul bonds" Natsu said as he sat with his hands crossed.
"Yes I know dear" Lucy said as she looked down in shame.
"Ok, first. STAND STRAIGHT!" He commanded causing Lucy to stand straight he head looking straight at her husband.
"You are a tartaros commander, act like it!" Natsu sighed as he calmed himself.
"I understand, I understand your reasoning one hundred percent. But I need you to learn that you need to keep your emotions in check. Please understand that" Natsu said as Lucy looked at him in shock before her eyes turned determined, she nodded.
The rest of the demons watched his smirks on their faces as their master taught a relatively knew demon the ways of batte. Mard Geer only stopped when he looked and saw that same care free look in his master's eyes.
"Master, I don't mean to intrude on the touching moment. But what of Lady Lucy's punishment?" Mard asked.
"Oh do not worry old friend. Lucy! Your punishment will be tonight, you leave for Lullaby with jackal in two days. Go to the Dungeons, you will find your punishment there" He said as he soon smirked wickedly.
Lucy sighed nodding her head and walking to the doors. The four demons watching as the doors closed.
"What is her punishment anyway?" Jackal asked.
"I told Kyouka to do what she wishes with her for the night" Natsu said calmly getting a look like he had grown a second head from his guildmates.
"Oh dear, let's hope Kyouka is in a merciful mood tonight" Sayla said.
/Dungeons\
Lucy walked into the dungeons as she followed a demon knight who was leading her to a the room. The room was damp and dark. It was lined with dark brown bricks. The knight soon stopped as he let his hand gesture to an opening in the wall. Lucy followed as she walked into only to see a room full of… special equipment. Whips, chains, benches, wax, you name it, it was here. Lucy soon felt metal gauntlets grab her and put her in cuffs.
"Welcome my queen" Lucy turned to see Kyouka holding a green whip of pure magic.
Kyouka walked towards her, her hand grabbing her chin and raising her hand to face her. "We're gonna have a fun night" Kyouka smiled sadistically as she enhanced Lucy's pleasure and pain.
Lucy started to shake in fear as Kyouka stood in front of her as she tightened the whip.
The gap soon closed as the demon knight could only flinch as she heard the sound of pain and pleasure.
