Chapter 10: Save Crocus!
Lucy POV
Today the whole team actually made it on time! We waited for Fairy Tail and when they arrived Mato boomed through the loudspeaker like always.
"Today's competition is called Save Crocus! Send your competitors and I will explain." Mato said.
Celeste automatically jumped off the balcony and ran to our spot and her picture appeared above her.
"Intertwining Realms has chosen their competitor! Celeste! As well as Sabertooth and Fairy Tail!" Mato said as everyone started piling up.
"Now then, here's how the game works. We pair up two people from different guilds and they are put in a section of Crocus. Once they defeat all the monsters in the area or get beaten trying we put their points up and whoever has the most points wins! Whoever has the least points gets 0 points then so on so forth. Begin the matching!" Mato announced.
Lacrima produced screens with two slots for pictures and no surprise Laxus and Celeste were paired up. I didn't know how to react. Laxus wasn't under mind control but he was usually hard to work with and Celeste only works well with people she actually likes. She may try just to earn us points though. I could tell from hear she was crying on the inside but had a bright smile on the outside.
Celeste POV
I was teamed up with Laxus! A Fairy! The only way I'll work with this guy is for the points. I was crying on the inside but smiling on the outside. I walked over to Laxus and we were transported to Crocus. I changed into a half form which was exactly like my other one except I used my Celestial half form instead of my Dust half form.
I sniffed the air and I smelt fifteen different monsters down the right path, thirty different monsters down the front path and another fifteen monsters to the left. then I smelt sixty different monsters down the path behind us. I sighed, not knowing which was the best path.
"Which way and how many." Laxus asked looking in front of us.
"Fifteen left, fifteen right, thirty front, sixty back." I replied.
"Let's start with the back. Take out the biggest group first." Laxus said turning and walking down the oath behind us.
I followed him until he stopped and waited. I sniffed the air and barrel rolled to the front when a laser shot through where I was standing. I turned to full form which turned me into a golden wolf with dust tipped ears and paws along with the tail tip. My teeth were extremely sharp as well as my nails. I ran and sent out a golden howl which took of fifteen of the sixty monsters. There was fort-five left when I heard a loud explosion and lightning.
"I got twenty!" I heard Laxus yell.
"Fifteen!" I growled.
Scratch that, not fort-five, now it was twenty-five. I scratched a monster having it blow out taking five others with it then sending a dust howl that took out seven more leaving twelve monsters left. I heard and explosion and hoped out from the bushes and saw the remaining twelve dissolve. Laxus and I ran back to where we started running towards the thirty towards the front.
When we reached the group I immediately pounced on one and biting it's throat then howling golden at a group of ten then a dust howl at a group of three giant ones. Then Laxus blew up the rest and we ran back to the beginning once again.
"I'll go right." I said running down the right path.
"I'll take left then." Laxus replied running down the left.
When I got there it was full of giant monsters. Luckily there was only fifteen of them. I changed back to my half form and a monster swiped at me scratching my arm. I howled a mix of gold and dust and it took him out taking out two others with him. Then I slammed my hand down on the ground towards a group of six monsters and a wave of gold hit them.
The monsters immediately dissolved and then I did the same to the other group of six but with a dust wave. When I finished I changed back to a wolf and ran at top speed and reached my teleportation circle and turned back to my normal nine year old self. As soon as I changed back I saw Laxus running towards me and he slid into his circle and we teleported back to the arena.
I looked around and we were the first ones out and we got a lot of cheering. our score was a hundred so we were in the lead with ten points so far. Then we watched as other teams appeared. By the end we had the most points so we won ten points for each of our teams.
When I reached my team I heard congratulations and squeals saying I did amazingly. I giggled glad to be done with it. We didn't really work together but we still got full points which I was glad we got. We had three more days left until we left Crocus. Technically two if you count on how many battle days. Tomorrow was the break day and the team definitely needed it.
I looked at my team and smiled as we headed to the bar.
Lucy POV
I never knew Celeste had full forms, I thought she only had half forms. Oh well, none the less we still won! We were in the lead and I could tell the whole guild was happy that we were winning. When we reached the bar Katsuo and Persephone made me go get something but I refused and I covered by buying juices for Miku, Mina and Celeste. When I set down their glasses they gulped them all down eagerly. I laughed and sat down next to Celeste.
"Why aren't you with Persephone and Katsuo?" Celeste asked plopping her glass down on the table.
"Yeah?" Miku asked.
"Why?" Mina finished.
I laughed a little and then thought about my answer.
"Well I don't normally come to bars and I didn't want to start now with that stuff." I said laughing.
"Oh!" Celeste said looking at the bar. "I'll be right back."
"Ok." I said.
Celeste got up and walked over to the bar and asked the bartender for more juice. When she came back she sat down and started drinking her orange juice once again. I looked around the bar and then I saw fairy Tail enter and I slouched in my seat. Celeste noticed too and sighed then pointed to the group from Fairy Tail that entered so Miku and Mina knew. They narrowed their eyes but then they went back to talking.
I pulled out a book from the bag I brought with me then I felt someone tap my shoulder. I looked behind me and saw Levy and sighed. I looked at her again and noticed she looked distressed. She motioned for me to follow her which I did. We went to the bathroom and Levy looked at me.
"What." I asked bluntly.
"Lu-Chan I'm sorry for how I treated you. I didn't feel good that day and then everything went blurry until I got here and I saw you." Levy said.
So she was being controlled and her spell wore off as well. I told Levy the same thing I told Natsu and she agreed. I walked out and two minutes later Levy left and joined Fairy Tail. That's two more people helping us find a cure from the inside. I still have no idea what Lisanna wants or why she's doing this to Fairy Tail. I'm determined to find out but if we do find a cure, I'm not going back.
Now that's done! I forgot to say, a poll is on my profile, I'm pretty sure it's on my profile so it would be great if you would help me with the poll! Thanks! I'm only doing these two today so I hope you enjoyed!
Byeeeeeeeeeeeeee :)
