Well, here it is people! Chapter 11! Sorry it took so long. But I made this a bit longer so the wait will be worth it! Over 3000 words not including A/N! But it's about 400 if you include it!
Oh, and by the way, some of you may have noticed it, but Lea, the second sister might have a little change of name. Her new name's Jade. Yeah, her name was originally Lea, and Joan's name was originally Luna too. But I had changed my mind and besides, I didn't want all of their names to start with the letter "L" from the first letter of the name Layla. So I decided to take a "J" from the first letter of their dad's name: Jude. So sorry for all the mistakes from previous chapters and if you get confused or anything. I didn't mean to change her name in the middle of the story, but I just forgot to change it. Since I made this story in advance a few months ago.
Oh, and that's also why I updated late. I may have wrote this in advance, but I didn't finish it! Sorry! But I'm working on it right now, so don't worry. But I just hope you guys won't mind waiting.
Sorry for everything! Please forgive me!
Lucifer waited for his "visitors" at a really large room. He sat on a golden throne his body guards had stolen for him a couple of years ago.
"Resistance is futile. You might as well surrender while you still have the chance." Leila told him.
"Yeah! Our li'l sis and her friends are gonna beat ya into a pulp!" Joan cried.
"Yeah! And Lucas is with them too!" Jade added.
"Silence!" he shouted. "This battle isn't over yet. Our reinforcements are coming soon. Our whole guild will be fighting against all those brats!"
"It still won't be enough!"
"Or so you think." He waved his arm at them. Then, the three female souls suddenly started fading.
"Wh-what?" Joan and Jade looked at themselves, confused.
"Locking us up won't change anything! We will get free of your damn curse!" Leila told him.
"Oh, we'll see about that." Then, their soul turned into lacrima. Lucifer picked them up and wrapped some thread around it and tied it around the bodies of his servants. Then he sat back at his throne and continued to wait. And only a few seconds had passed until the double doors were kicked open revealing his 'visitors'. He smirked.
"Oi, old fart!" Natsu yelled. "We're here to kick your ass!"
From inside the lacrima, Joan, Lea, and Leila still heard the Salamander's outburst. They sweat dropped.
"That guy's a bit too straight forward don't you think?" Joan told her sisters. Oddly enough, their voices couldn't be heard by the others, not even by Lucifer.
"To say his motive directly in front of Lucifer himself . . ." Jade, like her sisters, immediately thought the boy was an idiot.
"He's . . . very self-confident." Leila resisted the urge to face palm.
Meanwhile, Lucy and Lucas also heard Natsu's outburst.
"That guy . . ." Lucas trailed off.
"Yeah, I know." Lucy face palmed.
Natsu then ran after Lucifer and lifted a flaming fist at him.
"Natsu!" Lucy called out to him.
"You idiot! What do you think you're doing?" Lucas called out.
Lucifer just smirked. Then, before Natsu's fist could make contact with Lucifer's face, Jade blocked his attack and kneed him in the stomach. Then she grabbed his scarf slammed him to the floor.
"I'm so sorry!" Jade screeched, but of course, her voice couldn't be heard from inside the lacrima.
"Eh? Isn't that the guy Lucy was with earlier?" Joan asked.
"Dammit." Leila cursed. "Lucas better have a plan to get us free."
"Natsu!" Lucy called after her best friend once again. Then they all began to charge towards their enemies.
"Stick with the plan!" Lucas reminded them.
And they did. Natsu, Erza, Mira and Panther Lily fought Angel, Laxus, Gray, Lisanna and Elfman fought Rapid, Juvia, and Gajeel fought Robust. Lucy and Lucas stayed behind and watched them fight for a second. Then Lucy took a deep breath and was about to summon one of her spirits to try and help. But she was stopped by Lucas who grabbed her wrist.
"No," he told her, and she just stared at him with a confused look. "You're going to come with me."
"Wha-?"
"I can't knock Lucifer out alone." He said. Lucy was silent for a moment then she nodded.
"I'm coming with you!" Happy said.
"E-eh?" Lucas'eyes widened, only now did he notice the blue exceed.
"L-look, you can ask questions later." Lucy said. "But for now, let's move!"
Meanwhile, the others were having a hard time fighting. Leila, Jade and Joan can only watch them.
"Why do I have fewer opponents?" Joan complained. "They're underestimating me!"
"Shut up!" Jade told her. "This isn't the time for that!"
Theen a few seconds later, they were taken over by Lucifer's souls making them forget everything that's happened, and temporarily erasing every single one of their memories.
Natsu sent a flaming kick towards Angel but it was blocked, then Erza sent ten swords towards her opponent. Angel lifted Natsu up in the air and threw him towards the swords. Erza reacted quickly and requipped the swords and it all disappeared in a second. Mira sent a lot of punches at Angel, and Panther Lily prepared a sneak attack. But Angel sensed him and she dodged his attack in the last moment making the exceed hit Mira. Then she once again dodged both Natsu and Erza's attacks and sent a ball of magical energy towards them causing a mini explosion.
When the smoke cleared, the four of them could be seen lying on the ground as they struggled to get back up.
"J-just hang in there!" Erza told them. "We can do this!"
'We just have to hold her off. Just for a bit longer, we can do this!' she thought to herself.
Natsu roared and sent a flaming fist towards Angel who blocked it again with a glowing arm. She punched Natsu in the stomach but he held his ground and didn't move an inch. He set his entire body on fire, causing Angel to get burned a bit. But it seems her clothes took the full damage. Angel threw a kick at him and it hit his side making him fall to the ground, hard. Natsu tried to get back up, but he was kicked in the stomach making him cough.
Then Panther Lily appeared behind her and managed to attack her with his giant sword, hitting her in the stomach and sending her a few feet back and crash into the floor. But she immediately got back up. She made her arm glow and hit Lily in the face with it. But the exceed managed not to fall to the ground and tried to use his sword to attack her once again. But this time, Angel was ready. She blocked his sword with just her hand, which was of course glowing and got her other hand to also glow and hit him in the stomach. Afterwards, she didn't let him recover and just kept throwing punches and kicks at him. Soon after, Lily wasn't able to stand up and fell to the ground. He transformed back to his original form and he lost consciousness.
Erza then sent ten more swords at Angel but she just jumped high in the air, dodging all the swords. When she landed, she was met with Erza trying to cut her with her swords. Angel made her arms glow and used it to block Erza's blades, which she had a bit of a hard time doing since Erza was quite an impressive swordsman. But even the great titania only managed to give the woman a few cuts. Then Angel had enough and grabbed Erza's swords and kneed her in the stomach making the scarlet haired mage lose her grip on the blades. Angel threw the swords away, grabbed Erza by her collar and started punching her repeatedly in the face until she fell to the ground.
Erza and Natsu struggled to get back up, but they were too weak. Angel simply watched them and waited for them to stand up to her once again so she can beat them mercilessly once again.
"Dammit." Erza cursed before re-quipping to her Purgatory armor and once again stood up. "I shall not lose!"
"That's the same with me!" Natsu yelled forcing himself to stand back up despite the all the pain he was currently feeling throughout his whole body. "We're not going to let you beat us!"
'We have to win.' Erza told herself. 'If this woman is indeed Lucy sister and she's being controlled, then she deserves to be set free and be with Lucy along with the other two.'
"Erza, I'm going to go help Juvia and Gajeel. They need me." Mira told her.
"Yeah, sure." she only nodded before the take over mage ran to help her other nakamas.
At the side of the room, Laxus kept sending his lightning towards Rapid, but she would dodge them easily while trying to attack Gray, Lisanna, and Elfman. But it looks like Rapid wouldn't dare come anywhere near him, and he couldn't help but wonder why. Lisanna had already transformed into a leopard, her fastest transformation, but she can only dodge Rapid's attacks and couldn't attack her So she was doing a bit fine, if she can only land an attack at her opponent. Elfman transformed into his beast soul and was now trying to block Rapid's attacks and attack her at the same time, and it looks like he wasn't doing a good job. His arms were bloody and covered in scars from blocking Rapid's attacks and they still didn't know if she was using a knife or something. She's so fast that they couldn't see what weapon she's using. But despite the situation of the others, Gray was doing far worse than them. He was bloody all over and his attacks seem to be useless. He would always get knocked down and whenever he tries to stand back up, another attack would be sent to him.
"Gray! Are you alright?" Lisanna asked, dodging another one of Rapid's attacks.
"Not quite." Gray muttered as he remained lying down on the floor.
"Gray! Get back up! We need you over here!" Elfman yelled.
"Dammit." Laxus cursed. They were in deep shit. "What the hell's taking them so long?"
Gray once again tried to get up, remembering the fact that everyone else was trying their best and he should do the same. He wasn't the only one having a bad time, after all. But as he got back to his feet, Rapid attacked him once again. And this time, as he fell to the ground, he wasn't able to get back up as everything turn black around him. He could hear the voices and calls of the others fading before finally disappearing into silence.
Juvia was unharmed. Robust couldn't hurt her since it was physically impossible. But the others were different. Gajeel had hit the wall hard and was coughing as he tried to stand back up while Mira was trying to beat Robust in hand-to-hand combat, but all of her attacks were easily blocked. Robust kneed her in the stomach in an attempt to send her to the wall but Mira held her ground and punched her back in the face. Robust held her ground as well and sent another attack. It kept continuing on like that. One of them will send an attack and the other would either hold her ground or block it.
". . . uh . . . I-I . ." Juvia said, she wanted to attack Robust with her Water Slicer, but she might miss and she'd hit Mira instead. She started to sweat as she watched the two strong women fight. Now, she was wishing that Mira would stop holding her ground and just let herself get sent to the wall and away from their enemy so Juvia can stop feeling useless and attack Robust.
Then an opportunity appeared as Mira fell to the ground and lost consciousness. Juvia didn't waste any time and fired her attack. Robust didn't expect this and a long scar formed on her abdomen and the part of her arm between her wrists and her elbow. She started to bleed and she fell to her knees, appearing to be hurt. But to be honest, Juvia was actually shocked that the girl wasn't cut in half. But she was later thankful for it after remembering that the woman was her comrade, Lucy's sister. And she was only being controlled. Lucy may be her love rival, but she couldn't possibly let her anger out on her sister who's only evil because an evil man is controlling her. She was only supposed to distract her, and that was it.
Robust got back up and started attacking Juvia, but she couldn't hurt her since her body is made up of water. The, Gajeel attacked her from behind, and almost knocked her out. They had the upper hand in this battle, now if only their friends were in the same situation.
"Lucy! Be careful!" Lucas told her. They were on the ceiling and were standing on the wood supporting it. Happy had carried them up there, Lucy first then Lucas. Now they were balancing themselves and headed towards Lucifer and try to attack him from above.
"I know!" Lucy said. They were trying to keep their voices as low as possible, but there was no need since the battles happening below them were causing a big ruckus and there'd be no way for anyone to hear them from way up there.
"So, how do you guys plan to attack him?" Happy asked.
"With this." Lucas said, showing Happy a card with a picture of a soul being sucked into a jar.
"Eh?" Happy asked. "You use card magic?"
"You can say that."
"So what'll that do?" Lucy asked.
"It'll weaken his magic into a dangerously low level. And you know that a mage's magic is equivalent to their very life source." Lucy and Happy gasped, but then Lucas added. "Don't worry, it won't kill him. His magic is way too strong for that to happen. But when his magic goes down, it'll give our sisters a window of opportunity to try and escape from the lacrimas. Then once your friends knock them out, the souls who're possessing them would weaken even more. Then our sisters would be able to break the curse on their own by then."
"Wah! That's pretty good." Happy complimented.
"As expected of Nii-chan!" Lucy smiled., Lucas just smiled back.
"Now let's go, hurry. It looks like your friends are in deep shit."
"Yeah."
They soon got above the Lucifer's throne. He was watching all the battles with boredom taking over his features. Lucas took the card and squatted.
"Hey! What do you think you're doing?" Lucy asked in whisper, just in case.
"What does it look like I'm doing? I'm getting ready to jump." He simply stated. "Then I'll cast the spell, and it'll cause a huge explosion. So you and your little cat should get away."
"Are you crazy? What if the fall kills you? It's way too high up! Or what if Lucifer notices you before you can even come close to him? Or what if the explosion will be the one that kills you? It's way too risky!" Lucy said, frantically pulling him back.
"Lucy, calm down!"
"No, don't do it! It's way too dangerous! Don't! There has to be another way!"
"Lucy! Relax! I'll be fine!" Lucas said with pure seriousness. "Just trust me! I won't leave you again! I will never do that again! You know that!"
Lucy was taken aback for a bit. She bit her lip, not knowing what to do. But she was just reunited with her twin brother who she thought was dead and she'll soon be with her sisters too; so she couldn't just let him do something dangerous that can risk his life. It just won't be worth it. But she saw how serious his brother was, and she just didn't want to doubt him. She did trust him with her whole life, after all. So she just embraced him with tears threatening to roll down her cheeks. Lucas was a bit shocked by what she did, but he soon hugged her back.
"Be careful, I don't want to lose you again." She said as a single tear rolled down her cheek.
"I will. Remember our promise? We said that we'll meet again and I'd be able to meet all your friends and make new and wonderful memories, remember?" Lucas asked, and Lucy only nodded. "What did Leila-nee-san tell us about promises?"
Lucy pulled back, smiling at him. Then together they said: "A Celestial mage shall always keep their promise."
They laughed for a bit. Happy just watched this moment unfold in front of him. Tears threatening to roll down his face because of how touching it is.
"That's right." He said patting her head. "Now relax, and watch your awesome Nii-san take care of an old bastard."
Lucy only nodded before turning around and running away with Happy, trying to keep her balance at the same time. But then she suddenly stopped.
"Nii-san." She called.
"Yeah?"
"Why did you make me come with you if I wouldn't be able to do anything useful at all?" she asked. They stared at each other for a moment before Lucas smirked. Lucy's eyes widened.
"I couldn't just let you go and fight our sisters, right. We both know that they're crazy strong. I'm your older brother Lucy. I have to protect you, it's my duty." He said before repeating some familiar words. "You're my responsibility and because I just love you that much. And 'till my very last breath, I'm going to fulfil that duty, because you're my precious little sister."
Lucy could only smile as tears fell from her eyes. He hasn't changed at all. And she loves him for that. She turned around and started running faster with Happy comforting her.
Lucas then sighed in relief after knowing that his sister wouldn't stop him or hold him back before looking down to the golden throne where the old bastard is. He glared at Lucifer for a second before looking at her sisters who were being controlled. It was time to get them free. After all these years, they can finally be together with Lucy again. After he makes that bastard, Lucifer, pay for everything he's done and everything he made them do of course. He and his sisters will send that son of a bitch to a living hell and make him suffer. Lucas felt anger boil up inside him at the very thought of Lucy mourning for them, since she did think that they were dead. But they were tougher than that. And after all this was over, they were going to make up for all the years they had been apart and for all the tears Lucy had shed for them.
He then turned to Lucy who had stopped running once again and turned around, they looked like they were far enough. She smiled at him. He smiled back and took a deep breath before thinking: 'It's now or never' before he jumped.
I hope you guys enjoyed this chapter! Please review!
And now, here's a little story of how I was inspired to write this story and some trivia.
Last year, I liked to read the manga and watch the anime version of "Working !". The protagonist is a boy called Takanashi, Souta and he has four sisters, one was younger and the other three were older. And then I thought: 'I wonder what would happen if Lucy was in that kind of family?'
The youngest was Nazuna, and she was a nice girl so I decided that she'd be Lucy. Nazuna was 12 but she was really tall and looked like she was the same age as Souta, so I decided to make them twins here.
Next was Souta, and he was a pedophile and also a masochist. I didn't want to have a character like that so I made Lucas' personality a bit different. You'll find out in the sequel. (That's right people, this thing will have a sequel!). Her power is based on what Lucy's mmagic was supposed to be before Hiro Mashima changed his mind. I thought that, since they were twins, that would be a good power for him. He's Lucy's twin so he's 17 too.
Then there was Kozue, she was a violent alcoholic, and I just thought it'd be funny if Lucy would have a sister like that. Joan's personality will be the same as Kozue. Oh, and originally, her name was Luna but I changed my mind. And her power was based on the opposite of what Jade's power is. She's 2 years older than Lucy, or in other words, she's 19.
Next, there was Izumi. She was an emo and a romance novelist. Also, she was reeeeeaaaaaaaallly weak. And I mean that literally. Just watch Working !, anyway, I thought that since she would be a mage, she shou;dn't be like that. So Jade is nothing like Izumi. Jade's name was originally Lulu since I wanted their names to all begin with"Lu" but I couldn't think of another name for the oldest, then it was Lea but I thought it'll be weird if all their names began with "L" , so then I settled for Jade. Her magic was based on an anime I happened to watch at home. I didn't get the title, but I liked one of the character's powers so I made it Jade's power too. She's 22.
Finally, the eldest Kazue. She's a lawyer and very strict. Leila's personality will be a bit like that. And her magic was originally from Kanade of Angel Beats. But I made a few adjustments. The only thing they have in common now is the wings. Leila's 24, the same age as Laxus.
So originally, it was supposed to be that Lucy didn't get along with her siblings, but I changed my mind. And originally, Lucy's siblings were supposed to be searching everywhere for her and then found her at the guild. But then the time skip in tenrou island happened in the anime and I didn't want them to be seven years older, so I made this story explaining on how they managed to prevent themselves from aging and becoming seven years older than they're supposed to be. The explanation will show in later chapters.
And the sequel, yeah I'm going with my original idea. Not the part where Lucy hated them all, but the part when they found her in the guild. And then there would be pairings since I'd like Joan, Jade, and Leila to work together with Mira and become the matchmakers of Fairy Tail! And they'll start with Lucy and Natsu! Go NaLu! Hope you guys look forward to this as much as I do! And if you guys want me to do it, you can start telling me in the reviews! If this story's a success, then of course, there will be a sequel. But for now . . .
