"Lucy! Can you come here please?"
Lucy nodded and said goodbye to Natsu. When she got up there Makarov gave her a sheet.
"It's an alliance and they want you to go with them."
"Who else is going?"
"You, Jura, Jellal as Mystogan, Sting, Rouge and Hibiki."
"Hibiki from Blue Pesusas?"
"Yeah."
"Okay when do I leave?"
"In two hours. You have been busy so this is the first chance I had to tell you."
"It okay Makarov. What is the alliance about?"
"To destroy one of Zeref's Demons."
"And you chose me to do this why?"
"Actually the magic council did. They said it would help you on a job that you are currently on. Lucy what job?"
Lahar and Mest appeared in front of Makarov and Lucy.
"She can't tell you that."
"Why are you here Lahar and Mest?"
"Because Dara you haven't started the job that we gave you and the higher ups are getting impatient."
"Actually Lahar I am in the middle of it now. I just decided not to move around much. And exactly as you told Master Makarov this alliance will help me. So they will have to wait a while longer."
"You only have a few days left before Gran Doma himself will be after you."
"But that isn't enough time to even find him."
"Well I am sorry Dara but you should have thought about that before leaving it to long. You better leave straight away Lucy."
Lucy angrily sent lightning at the men who just disappeared before it could actually hit them.
"What is the job Lucy."
"It's classified. I am sorry Makarov I am going to be away for a while."
"What about the alliance?"
Lucy turned around and crouched down to his level and then looked at him.
"Do you really want me to do it?"
"Yes."
Lucy glared at Makarov and nodded.
"Fine."
She then turned around and jumped out of the window. Lucy landed on top of her roof and swung herself into her room by the window. She then walked over to a tiny suitcase that when you open it, it turns into a huge suitcase with lots of room but when it is closed it is the size of your palm. She packed all her cloths and then got changed into the cloths that she had left on the bed. They were a black crop top, tiny red shorts and her Wizard Saint cloak over the top. On the way to the train station she was trying to figure out how she was going to do all of this in a span of a couple of days. When she got to the train station she sat down and waited. While she was sitting there Zeref and Jellal who were hidden under cloaks sat down beside her.
"What am I going to do about this?"
"Jellal and I will take care of it. Just go and do the alliance job."
Lucy just nodded and when the train went past she jumped onto it's roof and grabbed onto a bump that was there so she didn't fall off. She layed down and looked up at the sky. When she was just about to go to sleep she felt a hand on her shoulder jolting her awake.
"Dara?"
She looked up and saw Sting looking over her.
"Oh hello Sting."
"I am guessing that we are heading for the same place?"
"Yeah."
Sting lied down next to Lucy and closed his eyes.
"It's so nice up here."
"I would have to agree with you. Better than sitting in the train."
"Oh yeah that reminds me why aren't you sitting in the train?"
"Why aren't you?"
"I have my reasons."
"Exactly."
They rode the train in silence and Lucy enjoyed his presence a lot. Although he was not calm and cool like Rogue Sting was warm and looked after his friends. Lucy wanted to become one of those friends.
"So Sting did you get chosen for this job or?"
"Well Master wanted to send the strongest so Rogue and I got chosen."
"Oh. The Magic Council made me come."
"It must be a lot of work. Being number one in the wizard saints."
"You could say that. I have to look after everyone else while still trying to get my work done."
"Sounds like fun."
They talked for the rest of the train trip and when they were at where they wanted to be they both jumped off and landed in front of the rest of the alliance.
"Hello everyone."
They walked out of town and into the forest where they set up camp. They sat around the fire and started to talk.
"So everyone as you know we are going to destroy one of Zeref's Demons so we are going to have to think before we do anything. For example we can't be restless and rush into a fight with it we have to stay back and plan."
Everyone except Sting nodded.
"But Dara I heard that when you fought Deliora you just rushed in and was nearly killed."
"Yes and I paid that price. I don't want to do that again. I know pf the demon that we have to destroy, at the magic council we have discussed it and I have even gone for a look. Its name is Galuna. As its name suggests it originated from the island Galuna but flew of here. It has a unpredictable temper that no one can control. Its magic is destroyer. Anything it sees turns to dust so we have to be careful. "
"How did you get all of this information Dara?"
"I have fought it a couple of times without the magic council knowing but I have never been able to land a hit on it."
