SAVE! It's still Tuesday in my country XD

*bows* Sorry for any grammar mistakes, couldn't reread it as many times as I wanted to.
Stardress
When Lucy equip into her Stardress, she can use the magic of her spirits. For every spirit she has a different Stardress.
Black hole
When Heaven's gate is a portal to Lucy's realm, where you can return back to the Earthland, is a Black hole a portal to a realm of darkness and emptiness. A Black hole sucks everything in and threw it into a realm between Earthland and Celestial realm, where you can never return from.
Chapter 3
It was morning. Lucy woke up by the weird heat source next to her and the weird smell of fish that was lying in her house. Slowly she opened her eyes and saw the familiar salmon colored hair lying next to her in bed. She wanted to feel angry, but her headache was throbbing more and her energy flow was getting harder to control. She just didn't had the strength to yell so early in the morning. With cautious she crawled out of bed and almost wanted to vomit by the strong smell that came out of her kitchen. Lucy's eyes widened in disbelieve, in her kitchen laid a large pile of fish, that was almost reaching the ceiling. Flies were started to circle around and the temperature of the room didn't make it any better for the condition of the fish.
'Fish…for…. Lucy…Lucy….is….mad' mumbled Happy in his sleep.
Lucy turned around a looked at her sleeping companions. '….Need more fish… Sorry….Luce….' mumbled the fire dragon slayer this time. Was this supposed to be a present? What am I supposed to do with so much fish…does it matter….It is all spoiled and started to rot anyway. She wasn't really sure if she was supposed to be happy or angry by this.Lucy noticed the dark circles under their eyes and she sighed. They have probably fished the whole night. A slight smile could be seen on her face but her eyes were overflowing with pain. Her hands started to tremble and she reached for her keys. Virgo? Can you please clean up this mess…in silence? I don't want to wake them up. A warmth feeling came off her keys and she knew that Virgo had heard her. Lucy's hand reached her head when her throbbing was getting heavier.She had been to Porlyusica for a cure, but also she could only give her some relaxing tea and some suppressing medicine. The only advice she got was to do some training to get her magic power under control.
Lucy grabbed some towels and sighed again. It would be pointless to shower here, the fish smell was too strong. Lucy filled her bag with some extra clothes and her medicine. She changed quietly into some old simple clothes. She grabbed her belt and keys and started running to the Fairy Tail guild.
In a golden light appeared Virgo in the kitchen and started to clean up. The maid noticed Natsu looking down, while sitting on her masters bed. 'Was I too loud? Punishment?'
Natsu shook his head and looked how the large pile of fish was placed in large plastic garbage bags. He grinned. 'No Virgo. We should leave. Come Happy.' Natsu grabbed Happy, while he was still asleep and jumped out of the window.
In the guild saw Lucy, Mirajane already setting things up for the day. 'Morning Mirajane,' said Lucy with a big grin. 'Can you make the usual breakfast for me? Oh and is the training room free in an half hour?'
'Morning Lucy, you are early like always. The training room is free. Do you want to reserve it for two hours?'
Lucy nodded. 'Thanks Mira, I will first take a shower.' She ran to the showers near the training room and took a quick shower. She have scrubbed her skin and had shampooed her hair, until she was sure no fish scent could be traced. She changed into a fresh blue tank top with black running shorts and some simple sneakers. She brushed her hair into a simple tail. Grabbed her breakfast from the bar and walked to Laxus office. She shook her head by the sight in front of her. Laxus laid asleep in his chair. His arms were crossed on his chest and his legs were leaning on his desk. It wasn't the first time she had found him like this. She placed her breakfast on her own desk and grabbed a sheet she had prepared for these kind of moments and placed it carefully on Laxus. She smiled slightly by his peaceful expression on his face. Lucy glanced on his paperwork and couldn't resist to correct a little mistake he had made.
Laxus didn't needed to open his eyes, he knew who was in his office. He could recognize her scent everywhere. 'The scent of strawberry….'
'Huh.' Lucy looked back at Laxus and noticed how he was looking at her in still half asleep mode.
'Sorry Laxus, did I wake you up?'
'How late is it?'
'Just past 7 a.m. go back to sleep.'
'Really.' Yawned Laxus. He stood up from his chair and stroke slightly in Lucy's long ponytail. 'You have showered here….even before your usual training, that's….new.'
Lucy blushed slightly and pulled her hair away. 'Until how long have you been working?' Asked Lucy to change the subject and it worked.
Laxus scratched behind his head and looked at his paperwork, what had another handwriting on it. 'To long apparently.'
'It's a small mistake, if you like I can check all your paperwork from yesterday?'
He looked at her and tangled his hand through her hair. 'Go eat your breakfast.'
Lucy felt her head becoming red. Her hair was a mess. 'Laxus! You know I don't like that!'
'That why it's so much fun.' countered Laxus back with a cocky grin. He waved and left the room.
Lucy let out a sigh of annoyance and brushed her hair back in shape. She ate her breakfast with some relaxing tea and waited slightly before going to the trainings room.
Once she was in the trainings room she saw the runes of Freed activating. These runes were placed to make sure members don't blow up the guild while they are at it. Lucy began running around a couple laps, when she had the feeling she had warmed up, she began to use her Heaven's Gate spell to teleport herself in front of a trainings dummy. She kicked and punched the trainings dummy while teleporting on different places around it.
She took a breath and looked around her a few seconds. She grabbed three keys. Open the gate of, the golden bull, the lion and the goat. Taurus, Loke and Capricorn.
Three golden light appeared. 'Moo Lucy's nice body.'
'You're prince in shining armor is here, princes.'
'At your service, Lucy-sama.'
Lucy sighed and looked at her spirits. 'Do you want to help me train?' she asked her spirits who were nodding to her in response.
'Don't go easy on me. Stardress Leo.' Lucy cloth transformed in a beautiful dress. Her hands were glowing with the magic of Regulus. 'Regulus Impacto.' Lucy fired an orb of light at Taurus. Taurus avoided it and tried to slam Lucy with his axe. When he looked up he saw nothing under his axe and a golden light appeared next to him. Lucy had teleported and glowed again. 'Stardress Taurus.' This time she had a little black white bikini with a short that covered only one of her legs and gloves that covered both hands. Taurus knew what was coming and shielding her kick with his axe. The force pushed him into a wall of runes. Capricorn was speeding at her and punched Lucy, who avoided and blocked all of his attacks. She tried to fight back but didn't had time before Loke fired a Regulus Impacto. She teleported away and attacked Capricorn in the back. Capricorn saw her coming and pushed her simply away. 'You are too predictable, Lucy-sama. Be more open minded where you teleport to.'
Lucy grabbed his arm just on time, while smirking. With the strength of Taurus she lifted Capricorn up in the air and threw him. Capricorn made a summersault in air and landed on his feet. Capricorn, Loke and Taurus looked at each other and nodded. The three spirits charged on the same time at her. 'Stardress Aries!' Yelled Lucy. She lighted up and had a fluffy shorts and top on. Her gloves and shoes were also made of pink and cream colored fluffy wool. Lastly were horns visible on her head. 'Wool wall.' A wall of purple wool had formed around her and the spirits stopped in their tracks. Even if they would have attacked the wool, their attack would be sucked in by the stickiness. Capricorn looked up and noticed how his master's energy level was spiking uncontrollably again. He signaled Loke and Taurus to stop. 'Well done Lucy-sama. I think we should go further with your meditation,' said Capricorn with concern on his face.
Lucy was catching her breath and nodded. 'Thanks Taurus and Loke.'
'Everyting for Lucy's nice body!'
'Anytime, Lucy.'
Taurus and Loke disappeared in a flash of light. Lucy changed back in her normal clothes and went sitting on the ground with her legs crossed. She looked at her hand and noticed how it was shaking.She clenched her hands into a fist and breathed in slowly with new determination. Her muscles were relaxing. She was eliminating every sound, smell, touch and closed herself of from the world while her eyes were closed. She could feel her familiar magic inside of her. She started to give out a glow. She concentrated and made an aura shield around her. She kept the shield up and made it stronger. An half hour had pasted and her shield was still shining brightly, while her magic was flowing through her body. 'Good Lucy-sama, now I want you to split the energy into two different aura's. Keep your concentration on both of them.'
She set out another shield, two meters from her and tried to balance the energy out. She felt how the magical pressure was draining from her body. After another half hour had past, she finally opened her eyes. The glow of energy slowly disappeared. 'Good work Lucy-sama. Try to do meditation training every day. Your energy isn't spiking anymore. We want to try to keep it that way.' Capricorn bowed and disappeared in a golden flash.
Sweat was sliding on her body and she drunk some water from a water bottle. She laid down on the ground for a couple minutes and noticed that no one had claimed the trainings room yet. So she had some more time to try her new spells. She touched her key to ask Aries to bring something for her and called for her. 'Open the gate of the ram, Aries.'
'I'm sorry, I did bring your notebook with me, like you asked.'
'Thanks Aries. I want to try two spells before I take a rest for today,' said Lucy with sweat on her body. 'Can you make dummies up there with your wool.'
Aries nodded, handed Lucy her notebook and walked to the empty area in the trainings room. With her purple wool created Aries dummies in the form of a person. After she was done she walked to the back of Lucy, to stand on a safe distance. Lucy looked at her own hands. Magic isn't good or evil, she knew that all too well. It was the caster own responsibility what he or she can and will do with it. It was a dangerous spell and hard to control. But deep down Lucy knows it can save lives if it was used wisely. Both hand were stretched in front of her.
All the stars that were lost
Open the Heavens to the wanderers
Claim the light of this realm
Open thy gate of the Blackness
Dominate!
Black gate!
Instead of a golden circle an huge black circle was forming above the practice dummies. The black gate used force to suck everything in in the pointed area. Lucy was trembling to keep the spell stable and to keep the practice dummies undamaged. After a couple minutes she closed the black gate and looked at its destruction. There was a big hole on the floor were the black gate had flew above. Two dummies were missing. Lucy cursed inside of her mouth and shook her head. It's still a spell she can't use in public. Not until she is certain that no innocent people are being sucked in. The spell feels more raw or wild, depends how you want to call it. It had the same feeling when she had tried to open Aquarius gate without her key, but was it really the control that she is missing?
She grabs her notebook again and tried her next spell. She grabs a bottle of water and placed it down on the floor. She walked to Aries. 'Aries keep a wool wall up at any cause.' Previous tries had followed up in an explosion. She had changed the magic circle multiple times and she had studied runes in the past eight months. Her hand went to her broken key of Aquarius. Maybe today…..
She waited until the Wool wall was up and pointed both her hands in front of her. She focused her magic. A golden magic circle was formed above the water bottle. The water from the bottle flew up and consumed the magic circle slowly. The water took over it shape until the last rune of the magic circle was covered in water. A crack was formed and a sudden explosion was the outcome. The wool wall remained standing, while Aries and Lucy flinched back a little by the sudden blast. Lucy felt on the ground and putted down her right arm on her eyes. 'Aargh, we are so close!'
'I'm sorry,' Aries responded.
'It's not your fault Aries, your protection wall is getting better and better, good job,' said Lucy while smiling again. 'Training is over, thanks for your hard work.' The same raw feeling like the black gate spell.
She sat up and looked at her spirit. She saw Aries disappear in a golden light and Lucy sighed. She was so close in opening Aquarius portal without a key. It's been six months since she discovered a way to make a spell to open a gate. It wouldn't be as simple as open a gate with a key, but that didn't stopped her for trying.
She sighed again and turned around when she heard someone growling. Laxus was standing against the wall of the door with his arms crossed before his chest. He looked at the runes of the trainings room, a crack was formed in one of the runes and there was a hole in the ground.
'Sorry Laxus, some spells went wrong, though I can fix the hole.'
Laxus shocked his head. 'Tch, I should ask Freed to fix these runes. Especially now that Flamebrain is back.'
'Speaking of Freed, do you know when Freed and Levy will be back, I need their help with one of my spells I can't figure out what is wrong with one of these runes.'
Laxus looked at her and thought about it. 'If I'm correct Freed's mission should be finished yesterday, so he should be coming back in the afternoon. Levy's mission had some…..delay apparently.'
'Thanks,' said Lucy with a smile and looked at Laxus who hadn't move a muscle at all. A silence and Lucy pondered what could be wrong.
'Is there a new mission? Or do you want to ask something else, Sparky?'
Laxus noticed he was staring at her rudely and shook his head. 'Don't call me Sparky, Blondie.'
'Only if you stop messing up my hair.'
Laxus smirked slightly before the usual mask was back on. 'No there is no new mission for you. I'm just…getting worried about Scrapface. He hasn't contacted me yet.' Lucy saw Laxus teeth clenching and his muscles were tightened. 'He is a strong mage, but still, it's my responsibility now if something goes wrong.'
Lucy stood up and placed her hand on his arm to comfort him, while smiling. 'Believe in Gajeel, that is the only thing you can do now.'
He could feel how his muscles were calming down, after the touch of her hand. The warmth she sent with her smile. It had shocked him before and it is still shocking him now, how much effect it had on him. She was the warmth and the light from his guild. Something he still need to learn. 'It's my duty now to concern about my brats.'
'And you are doing wonderful with that.'
'Hopeful I can keep it up when team Natsu is complete,' he laughed. He felt an energy spike and stopped laughing. He looked concerned at Lucy.
'Blondie? Your magic powers are spiking more than normal.'
'How…?'
'I'm not a dimwit like some others here. I can feel it even when you try to camouflage it.'
The smile on Lucy face was fading and she sighed.
'You know that I have been to Porlyusica, but she can't do much about it. She can returns magic with time but she can't expand the magic control from an human body. That is something the person himself need to accomplish by training. It's the same for Wendy, she can't help either. For now I try to train every day, but the headache is still there, even if I take the suppress medicines. What worries me the most is that it's even getting worse. Ever since the Creco accident….'
'Can't you use me as a container. It worked then?'
Lucy shook her head. 'It's not that simple. Having too much magic inside my body isn't the real problem. Ever since that accident, my body has been making too much magic itself. I can give it to you, but my body will fill it up immediately. Like it's in an emergency state, continuous in a fight. A fight for survival.'
Laxus looked at her in deep thought, he knew that she wasn't telling him everything. He sighed. 'You need a break.'
She looked at him confused and wrinkles were forming on her head.
'Blondie, since that accident you've been training, doing paperwork and you even went on missions. Go to a spa or something.' He pointed with his finger on her wrinkle. 'Rest.'
Her mouth felt open. 'But..'
He interrupted her and looked more fierce full in her stubborn eyes. 'Rest, no more magic! I don't want any more concerns on my head then I already have.' He scowled. Lucy finally nodded. The lightning mage hesitated a bit but then turned around and walked out of the training room.
Lucy was staring in front of her and smiled slightly.She looked at her hand that was still trembling, with less force. She turned around and looked at the training ground. Lucy sighed, first she need to fix that hole. 'Open the gate of the maiden, Virgo.'
'Your room has been cleaned. Is it punishment time, princes?'
'No Virgo, can you fix that hole for me, that's all for today?'
'But Laxus-sama told you….'
'I had already used a lot of magic today, a little hole won't make a difference and besides he didn't make me promise.'
'I will fix it then, princes.'
In a couple minutes the hole disappeared and Virgo also disappeared in a flash.
Lucy went home, took a shower and putted some comfortable clothes on. She looked at her notebook. One rune in the magic circle gave a crack today. She couldn't figure out how to fix it. She felt her headache coming up again and stood up. Maybe some relaxing tea will work.
In the forest was Laxus walking to a familiar treehouse.
'Tch, it was better if that old fool's guild kept disbanded. Leave! I can't enjoy with you humans barging in my life every time, but…it's the first time I see you actually walking to my house.' said Porlyusica while shoving some leaves away with her broom.
'I came to ask you something about Blondie, the Celestial mage….'
Porlyusica sighed and glared at the man in front of her from head to toe. 'That is not the only thing you came for isn't it, boy?'
Laxus face became serious. 'No it isn't.'
That was it for this chapter. It took some more time. I really needed to make some choices here for in the future.
I know that Lucy is really fast to forgive people, but she hasn't forgiven Natsu…..yet….In my eyes was the fish scene a little bit unbelievable. I'm not really sure about that. In my eyes should Lucy and Natsu really fight it out in a real fight, but with Lucy's condition…I tried to come with some other things.
Adabs18 : Thank you, i'm glad you like it! The first mind blowing fight will be in a couple of chapters! I hope you will enjoy them. ^_^
Anna: I'm glad I could make you laugh. I'm trying to keep close to the manga, not really possible in every chapter.
Next update will be this Thursday. \(^_^)/
