Chapter 8:
Then somehow Lucy was high up in the sky. Minerva had teleported her up high before Lucy's Cero managed to form fully. Lucy grinned and balanced herself up standing at the sky.
"Nice save, huh Minerva? Maybe Cero is a little bit too much." Raksha giggled to herself. "Nevermid I will be merciful to you." Raksha again uses flash step and gave a powerful kick at Minerva's back along with another jab with the hilt of her sword at Minerva's neck knocking her out.
"Minerva is out. 0 point to Sabertooth." Mato announced and Minerva was teleported out of the arena.
"Mira-san." Lucy called in a sing sang voice. "Aren't you going to fight? No need to stand guard over Erza. I won't hurt her, yet. I simply bind her so we can have a fair fight." Raksha then turned to face MiraJane. "So shall we?" Lucy.
"You! Why? Why do you sometimes…seems to resemble…..Lucy Heartfilia? Are you using somekind of illusion?" Demon MiraJane demanded.
"Hmm? Why so concerned about her? You guys are afterall the one reason why she is gone. You forgot about her and even when I summoned Leo you had no thoughts of Lucy at all."
MiraJane silenced of guilt. "How come you own that key?" Raksha turned her attention towards the scarlet-haired still in bind.
"Oh, Leo ain't the only key I have." Raksha smirked. "Don't worry, I'll show you all the keys I have, watch." Raksha paused then. "Watch me defeat her." Raksha pointed her finger towards MiraJane still in her Demon Halphas form.
"Gate of the Ram. I open thee. Aries." Lucy yelled out and Aries appeared in a puff of a pink smoke.
"Hello, Lucy-san. It's been a long time." Aries said shyly and for the time not saying sorry.
"It sure is. Can you help me defeat MiraJane?" Lucy asked and Aries nodded.
"I'm sorry if I can't be much of help." Aries bowed. "Wool Wall."
A wall of pink wool started to surrounded MiraJane.
"Gate of Maiden. I open thee. Virgo." Lucy summoned another spirit and a girl in a maid clothes with short pink hair with shackles around her wrist puffed.
"Hime, it's nice to see you again. How may I help you?" The maid bowed.
"Virgo, it's nice to see you so healthy and well. Now may you help, Aries in defeating a demon?" Lucy asked kindly.
"A pleasure, My Princess." The maid bowed again and disappeared in a flash.
Through the pink wool wall that hid the demon you can hear a screeching voice of shock. A chain rattling as if it was being tugged again and again but never did came unbound.
"Aries? You can go back now. Oh, and take the wool away with you."
"O-o-okay. Good day. I-I'm s-sorry." Aries said and disappeared with as does the pink wool.
When the wool was gone the audience gasped. Erza eyes widen. The other mages was shocked with disbelief.
The demon MiraJane was bound. Her wrist and her legs was restrained with shackles that seems to spurt from the ground. There was also seems to be a choker around her neck.
"Virgo. You can go now. I know the restrain won't last long." Lucy said and the maid bowed and excused herself.
"Gate of the Archer. I open thee. Sagittarius." A man in a horse costume appeared neighing.
"Moshi moshi. How can I help you, Miss Lucy?"
"Ah! Just shoot her with your arrows using Maguilty Sodom when she flies." (A/N: Yeah! I know it's a lost magic and rare for other people to have the same magic but hey Sagittarius is a spirit that is an immortal.)
"Moshi moshi." Was his response.
Then the chains that has been restraining the demon MiraJane broke off one by one until all of four of them was shattered except for the choker. The choker seems to serve no purpose.
Lucy took out her fleuve d'etoiles and got the end of the whip to latch itself on the special choker Virgo placed around the demon's neck. Caught by surprise by Lucy she handled the whip expertly and throw MiraJane to the sky.
"Now, Sagittarius." Lucy ordered. "Moshi moshi." But before he had time to even pull the arrow another arrow had pierced through Sagittarius abdomen. Wide eyed Lucy looks towards the source.
"Miss Lucy," Sagittarius called out and Lucy nodded granting his silent permission to leave.
"So you've escaped from the binding. Took you longer then I expected." It's Raksha now and when she was about to cast another spell MiraJane turn into another demon. The strongest ones.
MiraJane gave Raksha a powerful kick on her spine and Raksha was thrown across the arena. A scorch mark was evident on her back MiraJane's legs was covered in some sort of fire. Erza changed her armour into Lightning Empress and struck Raksha/Lucy with lightning.
Raksha cried out and hissed in pain. Her clothes were tattered but there was a glint of madness and hatred in her eyes.
Erza tried again to strike her opponent in lightning but with a larger voltage Raksha saw forward to this and chanted another spell before the lightning hits her.
"Bakudo no Hachi: Seki." A round shield seems to protect her and the lightning somehow lingers or more to paralyzed and was repeled. Her two opponents jumped aside to avoid the ray of lightning.
Erza hissed at Raksha, MiraJane was a little bit shocked. How strong is this mysterious girl? Erza tried again and requipped into a different armour. "Fire Empress Armour." Erza started with burning the arena grounds with blazing fire. MiraJane flew above, observing.
Raksha only laughed as she stood on the sky. "You can't be serious. I don't need a ground or a solid object to stand on."
Summoning a large amount of reiatsu Raksha casted another spell. "Bakudo no nana-ju-go: Gochūtekkan, Quintet of 1 kan Iron Pillars." The she chanted in order to strengthen her spell. "Walls of iron sand, a priestly pagoda, glowing ironclad fireflies. Standing upright, silent to the end.
