The next chapter of the story is here! I hope you enjoy! I loved the reviews, guys!
I ran back to the Guild Hall, still unsure of what had happened. One minute, Loke was right there, and the next, some strange guy in a suit stood in his place. I had never been so confused about anything n my lif. Was that what he was trying to tell me? That he was a Celestial Spirit? It still didn't make any sense. I'd known Loke for a long time, but I never saw any sign that he was a spirit. I whipped the door open and everyone turned to me. Mirajane stood up. "Mikayla? What's the matter?" I felt myself begin to cry again, but I held back to tell every one what went down.
"She what?" Levy asked, dumbstruck. I nodded. "And she told me that I can't get him back." The entire Guild seemed shaken. Losing someone as important as Loke was a real letdown. "I won't stand for it!" a booming voice declared. I looked up and saw our Guild Master, Makarov, come towards me. He stopped at my table and looked me in the eyes. "Now, Mikayla," Makarov said gently, but firmly. "Is what you're saying true? Loke was taken by that woman?" I nodded. "She said her name was Karen. I don't know the last name, but her name is Karen." Makarov froze in his place. I looked at him curiously. "What?" I asked.
"That can't be possible." He said. He shook his head. "No. It's not true!" I was getting anxious. "But, Sir, I saw it happen! It was Karen." Makarov slumped into a chair looking very wiped out. "Sir?"
"Karen Lilica died three years ago, Mikayla." Makarov told me. I gasped. That didn't make sense. How was she there, but dead? It didn't add up. "She was killed in a battle. The use of her Celestial Spirits was temporarily terminated. She was utterly defenseless." I couldn't believe this. So much new information in one day, it was making my head hurt. "We have to go get him." I said. "We can't let Karen keep him. Who knows what she'll do?" Makarov nodded. "I agree, but Mikayla, it's too dangerous. I don't need anyone else getting captured." My heart sank. "What? But I have to go! Loke is my boyfriend! I have to save him!" Levy came over next to me and placed a hand on my shoulder. "Mikayla, Makarov's right. You're a little unstable and you need your rest." I stood up abrubtly, knocking down the chair I was in. I glared at everyone in the room.
"You guys don't get it!" I screamed. "Loke needs me and you guys are telling me that I should let him die! Not gonna happen!" With that, I ran out the guild hall and went home. I just had to save him. But how?
"Leo?" Aries asked. Loke nodded sadly. This was a bitter-sweet moment. He was happy to see his old friend again, but he was catured and Mikayla couldn't help him. Aries ran in to give him a hug. "It's so great to see you again!" She said, happily. Loke was too upset to hug her. He really wanted to see Mikayla. Aries seemed to notice Loke's behavior. She pulled back and looked at him. "What's wrong, Loke?" Aries asked him, worried. Loke shook his head. "It's nothing." He said. Aries gave him her No Nonsense face. She saw right through him. "Okay. Wanna try the truth this time?" She asked, hands on her hips. Loke cracked a little smile. "Fine. Karen took me away." Aries's eyes widened. "Isn't she dead?" She asked. Loke shook his head. "Apparently not." He said. Aries looked in his eyes. "Something else is bothering you." She told him. "Come on, tell me." What's wrong?" Loke sighed. "I...left someone behind...someone I love very much." Aries looked at him sympathetically. "Wanna talk about it?' She asked him. She sat down cross legged on the ground. Loke sat down next to her and began to tellher everything. Just like old times.
I stayed up all night trying to think of something , anything to get Loke back. I read the book I had on Celestial Spirits and Wizards. I found out that if Karen decided to give Loke to me, everything would be fine. Great. The chances of that hapening were little to none. I rested my head on my desk in defeat. I had to face it. Loke was gone. For good. I sobbed myself to sleep that night.
I was back in that room again, only this time, Karen wasn't there. Instead, a younger looking girl with pink hair was there to greet me. She saw me and smiled timidly. "Hello." She said. She seemed a lot more knd than Karen. I relaxed a little. "My name is Aries. Aries the Ram." She greeted. She held out a hand for me to shake. I remembered reading about her. She was one of the Celestial Spirits. I wondered if she knew Loke.
"You must be Mikayla." Aries said. "Loke told me a lot about you." I gaped. 'He did? Is he okay? Can I see him?" Aries grabbed my arm as I tried to run off. "Easy. You can't see him right now, but I can tell you where to find him."She said. I turned to her, grinning. "Oh my gosh, could you?" She nodded. She pulled a little piece of paper out of her dress and handed it to me. "Use these coordinates, and you should be able to find him." I took it and smiled. "Thank you so much!" I began to walk away when Aries sad, "Loke really loves you Mikayla. I bet he can't wait to see you." I grinned. "I can't wait to see him, either."
Yay! Mikayla can hopefully be reunited with Loke! I've been told that my story ispretty sad. That was not my fault. I have no idea that people would react like this. Please review!
