Disclaimer: I DON'T OWN FAIRY TAIL

Previously on Dragon Stars...

"Yo! Hey! MINA!" I yell, that got everyone's attention... "These guys were taking up an assassination request from Laxus! I have a plan! We train. Train. Train some more! We'll beat them in the GMG... Then we show Fairy Tail what happens when you screw with Fairy Zanto!"

Everyone shouts in assent. You played with fire Laxus. Watch your back because where you're heading... to be blunt, you're going to hell Laxus Dreyar.


Chapter 7: Still Up and Kicking!

Lucy POV

"Gate of the Rooster, I open thee!" I called, moving Gallum's key in a cross pattern. Then quickly switched to the second key "Gate of the Bunny, I open thee!" The pure white key gracefully shifted in a rough heart shaped path. "Gallum, Harlequin!" Bright flashes of red and white filled the green landscape, the light quickly disappeared leaving my two somewhat new spirits standing on the sharp blades of grass.

"Greetings Princess." Harlequin greeted me.

"Greetings Ma- um friend." Gallum stumbled over his greeting, trying to act how I wished.

The two spirits stopped for a moment, stared at eachother, then looked away in disgust. They both crossed their arms over their chest.

"Hmph!" Harlequin muttered uncharacteristically. I looked between the two in confusion, disagreeing spirits?

"Why is he here?" Harlequin asked, at the same time Gallum questioned;

"Why is she here?"

I sweatdropped. "Hi, Gallum" I nodded toward Gallum, "Harlequin" My head motioned toward the bunny woman. "I need to train, so I figured why not train with my adult chinese zodiac spirits. I didn't uh realize you two..." I trailed off as Harlequin and Gallum glared at one another, tension was heavily decorated with hatred.

All of a sudden Harlequin ran to my side, in chibi-mode, "Lulu! I don't wanna work with the pooey Rooster." Crocodile tears were pouring out of her giant emphasized eyes. She tugged on my shirt like a child would. I could feel myself sucumbing to this different side of her.

Before I could recall Gallum, the Rooster sprinted over to me, he was in chibi-mode as well, "Lu-chi! The puffy white thing scares me! I don't wanna work with fluff." Water poured from Gallum's eyes as well. This is... different... and unexpected... and just plain weird! Maybe I should take charge... Maybe if I act a bit like Edo-Lucy...

"So childish" I sneer, instantly the two chibi's turn back to normal, "Acting like children just because you don't want to work with someone you despise, its just... so childish" The two spirits let go of my shirt and stepped away from me respectfully. They lower their heads in shame.

Smiling I pat each of their heads, "Sorry for being so... unlike me!" I exclaimed cheerfully, "Hope you two are ready to train!" Pumping my fist in the air the two spirits shout their agreements.

"Do it Elfman!" I call over to him. Elfman may be able to use the powers of monsters he's killed, but he learned enough magic that he can summon the monsters whenever he wants, a bit like celestial spirit magic.

"Beast Control: Summon!" Elfman bellowed, pounding his chest like a gorilla. Smelly black smoke appeared, causing everyone in a mile radius to gag at the horrible stench. When the horrid stink vanished, it left a huge hairy black monster. It bellowed loudly and pounced toward the first figure it saw, which happened to be me.

"Gallum, Harlequin!" I yelled to get their attention, "Gallum, defensive! Harlequin, be prepared for sudden healing!" They both nodded to show they understood. Gallum sprinted to the left side of the beast, and Harley stood by my side.

"Guardian Wings!" The Rooster cried out. Feathers grew from his arms until his arms became wings. He flew above the monster, shaking his wings furiously, even letting a few feathers drift down slowly. His wings slowly hardened, swerving quickly towards me. Gallum landed in front of me with his wings acting as a shield, blocking the beast's tackle.

"Neptune's Frozen Heart!" The beast stops swinging madly and turns to stare at me. Normal air turns to frozen cold oxygen, swirling around my body. Freezing air flows into my dirt brown eyes slowly morphing it a different color.

I point at the monster menacingly. Ice grows on the monster, decorating everything from its head to its toes. While the ice grew the beast screamed bloodcurdling shrieks, trying to escape the cold clutches of death. The frozen water had finally completely taken over the monster, leaving a big block of ice.

"That was easy" I proclaim disbelievingly.

Crack.

"Almost too easy"

Crack.

"Watch out hime!" Harlequin cautioned me, I turned around just to get kicked in the stomach. my body flew into a nearby tree with a resounding thud.I think I broke my arm... I tried to scream but no sound could escape. Moving my good arm I attempted to cradle my limp arm, pain shot through me again. Blood stained the back of my shirt, I guess I got cut somewhere back there too...

"PRINCESS!" Harley bounded over to my side in a flash. Gallum was still guarding me with his solid wings, it was evident that he wouldn't be able to hold out too much longer. It was also getting obvious that I couldn't stay conscious much longer. My eyes fluttered open and shut. Harley was getting ready to panic.

"Emergency Healing" The bunny muttered, waving her hands over my body quickly. Energy flooded through my body, my arm bone put itself together and the extreme pain subsided. Cuts on my back closed themselves, cutting off the flow of blood. Quickly the emptiness that the pain left was filled with anger.

"Solidified Gas" My eyes became less hazy, the air evened out.

I clenched my hand on my two scimitars until my knuckles turned a pure white, while my other hand gripped my keyring. I flicked through the keys until I found the one I wanted.

Swiping the powerful key down I chanted, "Gate of the Twins, I open thee! Gemini." Gemini appears in a flash of blue light.

"Stand back master-" I cut off the first spirit with a glare.

"I fight with my spirits not behind them" The second spirit chuckles and motions to their side. They both transformed into me. Tossing Fleuve d'étoiles at Gemini-Me, I took a scimitar in each hand and prepared to strike.

"Lets go Gemini!" I screeched. Gemini sprinted forward with Fleuve d'étoiles flying behind her, she jumped into the sky. I briskly darted ahead and sprung into the air along with my counterpart. The monster looked between the Gemini and I, bewildered by seeing two of the same thing. I smirked, taking that as an opening. I swiftly swung my scimitar's in a skillfully manner. Slashing up, down then up again. Glancing over to my side, Gemini was flicking Fleuve d'étoiles against the beast letting the river of stars greatly injure the offending creature.

"Gemini" I called, Gemini-me gazed at me, motioning her head for me to continue, "Time to finish this. Formation 1!" I sheathed my two scimitars and put away Fleuve d'étoiles.

She peered at me worriedly, "Are you sure Princess? You haven't been taught that properly" I shake my head while grinning.

"Gemini, I haven't been twiddling my fingers uselessly these past two months!" I revealed. She scrutinized me before shock took over her look-alike features.

"You learned it properly!?" She affirmed looking a bit mortified. Soon the emotion disappeared and she nodded solemnly, ready to perform the task. Gemini turned her back to me so I hastily moved my spine to hers. I held out my arms wide at each side, Gemini-me mirrored my movements. I grasped both of her hands.

Survey the Heaven, Open the Heaven...

All the stars, far and wide...

Show me thy appearance...

With such shine.

O Tetrabiblos...

I am the ruler of the stars...

Aspect became complete...

Open thy malevolent gate.

O 88 Stars of the heaven...

Shine!

Power seeped out of every pore. I cracked open my eyes, they were glowing a bright deathly yellow. The background turned a royal blue with stars shining brilliantly. Planets swirled around the beast leaving the creature eyeing the escaping balls of color.

Urano Metria!

The previously harmless planets that were wandering around happily grew a dark aura around them, they all pelted themselves toward the monster repeatedly until the power decreased. Once the star climate dissipated the giant fell headfirst onto the cold unforgiving dirt. Definitely defeated this time.

"Thanks Elfman!" I cheer loudly. He gives me a mock salute.

"It's manly to help girls train!" He barked, pounding his chest once again. I sweatdropped.

"Okay then..." I trailed off, "I'll just head back to the guild!" Skipping out of the forest, I begin to hum softly under my breath. I strolled through the endless tree's and the green landscape. Seeing the approaching building I started to walk a little faster.

When our guild was burned down we were devastated, it took a lot of time and work to build it. We of course had to build it again and I can safely say that it's almost exactly like it was before. The spirits are such a help with building, especially Virgo and Scorpio!

"Hey Luce!" A salmon haired boy came springing to me, his happy-go-lucky smile plastered across his face, "How did training his Elfman go?"

"With Elfman? More like with this monsters..." Trailing off his eyes grew wide, "Are you okay? Are you hurt?" He fretted over me like a mother hen.

"I'm fine Natsu. Geez. I kicked the beast's ass!" Harley's key lit up a bit, "Maybe I had a little bit of trouble." I sighed. My spirit's are just like my friends... Gemini's key glittered harshly. "Fine! A lot of help from my spirits!" Huffing, Natsu starts laughing. I sent him an unforgiving glare.

"You're so weird Luce!" A red tick mark appears on my head.

"LUCY KICK!" He stands his ground, the kick didn't push him from his original spot at all. He grinned at me, something in my body rumbled.

"Is that all you got? You up for a sparring match?" I beam at him then winked. Gesturing my head as affirmation, we beckon the guild to come watch us. They were even placing bets on who would win the match. A big whiteboard said:

Bets:

Natsu- Wendy, Charle, Gray, Happy, Elfman, and Juvia.

Lucy- Cana, Levy, and Erza

"Well Lucy, you can give up now, bets are on my side" He snickered.

I glowered at everyone who voted for him. "Traitors!"

"Lets get this started! I'm all fired up!" he exclaimed

"Gate of the Twins, I open thee!" I swipe the golden key through the air, "Gate of the Archer, I open thee!" Switching to a different key, I puncture the air with different precise movements, "Gate of the Arrow, I open thee!" Twirling a silver key in a circle pattern, I finish by reciting, "Gemini, Sagittarius, Sagitta!" In flashes of blue, brown and white Gemini, Sagittarius, and Sagitta appeared.

"Which transformation princess?" Gemi asked. In response I put up three fingers. Mini looked at me in shock, "Are you sure hime?" Gesturing an affirmative, I motion for them to go ahead.

Gemi and Mini stood next to each other. They transformed into a girl with long red hair. Natsu turned a shade of white rivaling that of my Magnesium key.

"E-Erza?! No fair Luce!" I stick my tongue out at him.

"All is fair in love and war!" He squinted his eyes in speculation of the statement.

"Lucy, What do you need me to do" Sagittarius questioned.

"Partner with Sagitta" I gesture to the bouncing magical arrow with arms and legs, "To do long-distance damage as Gemini and I fight Natsu up front" They both shake their heads to show they understand the orders.

I whirl backwards to face Gemini-Erza, unsheathing my two scimitar's I motioned for Gemini to take them. She took one in each hand, getting ready to strike. Taking Fleuve d'étoiles into my left hand and I clench my right hand into a fist ready for the smashing.

"Jupiter's Shocking Secret" Snapping my fingers a large gray cloud filled of lightning formed overhead. Electricity slipped from its fingertips and struck me. The lightning's power coursed through my body. Leaning forward I take off into a sprint toward Natsu with Gemini-Erza mimicking me, trailing behind me. Natsu ignited his fists, looking overjoyed to be fighting.

"Fire Dragon's Iron Fist" He hurdled toward me with a flaming fist. Natsu let the punch go and I sprung over him, landing behind him. He hastily recovered from the missed hit and barely managed to dodge a spark of lightning that came from the gray cloud. Natsu rebounded back from the dodge, "Fire Dragon's Wing Attack" He rushed toward me his whole body alit, hands out ready to throw the target. Swiftly I shot out of the way from his attack. Motioning Gemini-Erza to attack, she threw herself toward Natsu. With talented swordsmanship she maneuvered around trying to get into a position which would end the match.

"Fire Dragon's Roar" He forms his fingers into a circle, puffs up his mouth. Shit. Shit. That move is too well ranged. I'll lose instantly. Wait... Yeah lets try that...

Talk with heaven, Chat in hell...

The stars from each dimension...

Come out to speak...

Your brilliance will shine...

Open thy portal to the the malicious and the good...

Go Play...

Still Stars!

Transparent stars begin to appear gradually. They start to become more solid but before they can all become completely sturdy, I scream toward the stars "DEFENSIVE STANCE!" Instead of pelting the enemy, the stars fly toward me. They stack on top of each other. When they finished there was a wall of bright light in front of me. The flames from the roar hit the wall and spontaneously exploded. The lights disappeared after the attack dispersed.

Diving over the Gemini-Erza I landed on the ground and began rolling rapidly toward Natsu. I went under and ended up behind him. Taking advantage of the situation I flicked Fleuve d'étoiles and landed a direct hit to his back. He sunk to the ground as a twang was heard. An arrow landed a few yards away barely missing him.

Gemini-Erza sprung over him as he got up, and slammed the butt of a scimitar in his face. Natsu crashed to the floor once more. The familiar twang was heard again, the arrow missed again but this wasn't a ordinary arrow. The arrow stopped after it missed its target and changed its direction so it was heading toward Natsu once again. This time it hit the target, pinning him to the wall. Before he could unpin himself, Gemini-Erza held the scimitar up to his neck and I had Fleuve d'étoiles ready to strike again if necessary.

"O-Ok I give!" Natsu chokes out, obviously very worn out from the sparring match.

"HAHA!" Cana yelled drunkenly, "Pay up suckers!" Regrettably the people who betted on Natsu payed Cana, Levy and Erza.

"It isn't manly to lose!" Elfman bellowed, "Men must train to make themselves more manly!" He dragged a nearly unconscious Natsu to the forest. I sweatdropped.

"Wow Lucy, This is a very amazing transformation your spirit can do" She complimented, looking at the Gemini-Erza.

"Really? Well Gemini, Transformation Four!" Gemini giggled while changing form. When the spirit finished transforming there stood a tall man with blue hair jutting out of his head with an abnormal red tattoo near his right eye.

For a moment Erza looked shocked before remembering who is was.

"LUCY! MY SWORDS WANT TO TALK TO YOU!"

"Eep!" I run away from Erza. She soon takes chase, her red hair flying in the breeze. I tripped over a grass knot and the devil caught up with me. She immediately began torturing me... via tickling!

"Haha!" I laughed uncontrollably as Erza tickled my sides, "Erza! S-Stop I-I c-can't b-breath!" I managed to choke out between my laughter. She eventually stopped and I was able to catch my breath.

I love my guild! Fairy Zanto is amazing! They're my new family! I can't let something like what happened last time happen again! I'll get so strong that anyone who dares to even think about messing with them will regret it!
