"Your own personal akuma" asked Tyki as the three Noah stared at the small girl clinging to Matt.
"Yeah, I created it myself about a year ago, and it's been out getting stringer since then" said Matt looking at the girl. "I was wondering how she was doing."
"So…why did she call you daddy" asked Road. Matt was about to say something but stopped himself.
"I have absolutely no idea" Matt said after thinking about it for a moment. "Lily, why do you call me daddy?" Lily stared at Matt for a moment.
"Because you are" Lily said in a high soft voice. Matt smiled and shook his head.
"Of course" said Matt, she didn't answer his question but he didn't want to argue with the child.
"Oh she is absolutely adorable" said Sheril, sparkles were seen in his eyes. He walked up to Lily and tried to pick her up but Lily hid behind Matt. Sheril looked at Lily with a sad look in his eyes, he wanted to hold the small girl. "What's wrong little one?"
"I think she's a bit shy" laughed Tyki as he walked up and patted Sheril on the back. Road now walked up to Matt, and peered behind Matt and looked at the hiding girl. Lily noticed that Road was looking at her and got scared and buried her face into Matt's back which caught him by surprise.
"Lily what are you doing" asked Matt.
"She's scary" said Lily, her voice muffled because she didn't move her face. Matt looked at Road and erupted into laughter. Road glared at Matt but he didn't care.
"Don't you worry about Road" said Matt after laughing for a bit. "She's not as scary as she looks. Well she is but that's not the point" Matt snickered, Road hit Matt over the head.
"How can this kid be an akuma" complained Road. "She acts like such a child."
"I agree with Road" said Tyki. "She seems more human than akuma." Sheril would've said something but he was still upset over the fact that Lily wouldn't let him pick her up.
"That's because she is a special akuma" said Matt, "like I said before, I personally created this akuma, from the original skeleton to retrieving the soul. The soul is that of a child so I would expect her to act like one."
"I see, what level is she" asked Tyki, now a bit interested.
"She doesn't have a level" said Matt; everyone looked at Matt with a confused look. "Let me explain, the Earl allowed me to create an experimental kind of akuma. Instead of levels, the akuma starts of small and grows as the akuma gets stronger. However, if I am correct, she will be able to adjust her height. I have not seen Lily since I turned her into an akuma, so I don't know how strong she is."
"Well why don't we find out" said Tyki.
"Sure, but we don't know where any exorcists are at the moment" said Matt.
"That may be true" said Sheril. "But if what you said is correct, then we should be able to get a good idea of how strong she is simply by her size.
"If you ask me she must not be very strong" said Road. "After all look how small she is."
"I was talking about her akuma form not her human form. So why don't we go to an open field and see for ourselves" said Matt Road then summoned her door and they all walked through.
They found themselves in the middle of a large field in the middle of nowhere. While Matt wondered why she went to this place before, but ignored it. He looked at Lily who still insisted on clinging on to him.
"Lily, I need you to do me a favor" said Matt as he kneeled down to her level. Lily looked at Matt in confusion. "I need you to go into your other form, show me how big you've grown" Matt said with a smile. Lily nodded and closed her eyes.
It happened extremely quickly Lily transformed into a massive dragon that was bigger than the Kamelot mansion.
"Holy shit" Road, Tyki and Sheril said at the same time. Then Road looked around.
"Hey where's Matt" asked Road.
Matt was laying on his stomach on the dragon's back, his eyes wide with surprise. After a moment of just laying he silently stood up and began to climb up the dragon's neck until he reached its head. Matt peered over the edge of Lily's head and looked into one of her eyes.
"So Lily" Matt said calmly. "You've grown a bit." Then Matt smiled. "I'm so proud of you." Matt could see a sparkle enter Lily's eye and Matt laughed. He looked back up and saw some people running towards them. As they got closer Matt recognized what they were wearing, they were exorcists. He looked back into Lily's eyes.
"Hey Lily, see those people running towards us? I want you to kill them." Lily looked at the exorcists running towards them and she opened her mouth.
On the ground Sheril, Tyki and Road were still not getting over the size of the dragon.
"How is she so big" asked Sheril.
"Well, Matt did say the stronger she became the larger she got" said Tyki. "So by that standard, she must be pretty strong." At the same time Road noticed the exorcists running towards them.
"Great, just what we needed right now, I really don't want to deal with the Black Order right now" said Road.
"I think Matt's taking care of it" said Sheril as he pointed up towards Lily's head. Tyki and Road looked up and saw Matt standing on top of the dragon, pointing in the direction of the exorcists, who were still a great distance away. They watched as Lily opened her mouth and a bright light began to form in her mouth. After a moment, Lily shot out a massive fireball that was launched at the exorcists. The fireball quickly made contact with the exorcists creating a massive explosion. The force of the explosion could be felt by the Noah's as well as the intense heat from the fireball. They just stared at the smoldering crater jaws dropped; they looked back at Lily, then back at the crater.
"What just happened" asked Road, barely managing to get the words out.
"I think that was a fireball" said Tyki, barely managing to speak just like Road. They looked back up at Lily, something seemed wrong. Lily hiccupped and there was a huge plume of smoke that surrounded Lily. The smoke cleared quickly and Lily was gone, and all they saw was Matt falling. Once Matt hit the ground the three Noah ran up to Matt.
"Matt are you alright" asked Road who was worried about Matt. Matt sat up, he was a little sore but he had a huge grin on his face.
"Where's Lily" asked Sheril. Matt smiled.
"Right behind me." Sheril, Road and Tyki looked behind Matt to see a tiny dragon sprawled out across the ground, she appeared to be sleeping. "She seemed to use up to much her power in that attack of hers and she reverted to her original size" said Matt.
"Why would she use so much power" asked Sheril as he went to pick up Lily.
"I think she was trying to impress Matt" said Tyki.
"You might be right about that" said Sheril as he held the tiny dragon in his arms; for some reason, even in this form, Lily seemed really cute. "She seemed really attached to Matt."
"So what do we do now" asked Road as she pat the tiny dragon as she slept.
"We head home" said Matt who stood up and took Lily from Sheril who resisted a bit. "There's no reason for us to stay here, and besides I'm tired." Road looked at Matt in surprise.
"Really? It's only been a few weeks since you last slept, usually you stay awake for much longer."
"True, but for some reason I'm really tired" said Matt as he yawned. Road summoned her door.
"What are going to do about Lily" Tyki asked Sheril.
"I don't mind her staying in the house, but she will have to stay in her human form while she is there. But I can tell Matt that tomorrow." Tyki smiled and the Noah entered Road's door to head home. Once Matt entered his room he placed the sleeping dragon down at the edge of his bed, got changed and fell asleep.
Thanks for reading. Please review. Chapter 50 coming soon!
This ends the introductory arc for Lily. Lily will remain a main character in the story. This chapter was difficult to write, I had a lot of ideas for the chapter and so the chapter may have seemed sloppy in comparison to other chapters and I apologize for that. I will most likely refine the chapter and publish a new one later on. I will make sure to let you know when/if it happens. Other than that let me know what you thought of the chapter. Until next time!
