As Lucky and Happy flew Lucy and Rachelle over the jungle, Rachelle yelled out. "There's the village!" and she was right. Off in the distance, the girls and critters saw the island village up ahead. "Good eye Rachelle." Lucy said. And with that the four of them went and landed in the village. As soon as they did they were bombarded by the villagers with multiple questions.
"Hey what's going on?" "Why are you back?" "Did you find a way to destroy the moon?" Rachelle was the first to step forward. "Everyone please listen up! We have something important to warn you about!" she declared. Lucy came up next to her, "She's right, at any moment the people who are responsible for your curse that causing you to change are on their way to attack you!"
This made the villagers gasp in shock and fear. "They're coming here to fight us?!" asked one of the men. Rachelle nodded, "Yeah, but don't worry I have a plan. When they come, we'll capture them and force them to tell us how to change you back to normal!" Lucy proclaimed. "One little flaw in your plan Lucy. The weirdos coming are all wizards and we have no clue what they're capable of." Lucky pointed out.
"Aye, she's right. They're gonna be hard to catch." Happy agreed. Lucy absorbed all this and nodded to them. "You guys are right, and your the only ones we've got. Well good luck." Lucy replied to the two. This made them gawk at her in shock and annoyance.
"Last we checked, your a wizard to!" "So don't bush all the responsibility on us!" Happy and Lucky yelled at her. "Yeah uncool Lucy. And did you really forget that I'm right here?" Rachelle begrudgingly asked the spirit mage.
Lucy rubbed the back of her head, seeing how awkward this was. "Sorry Rachelle it slipped my mind." she sweat-dropped. Then her eyes widened, as if something just came to her.
With a gasp of joy and clapping her hands she said. "I, just had the most amazing Idea!" she exclaimed with a smile. Both Lucky and Happy sweat-dropped at her. "I get the feeling she's just gonna make things worse." "Aye, nothing good can come out of this." Happy agreed with the fox.
"What are you all doing out here?" Asked a voice. Everyone turned to see it was the chief, Moka. "Chief." said some of the villagers. Lucy was the first to speak to him. "We don't have much time sir! The enemy is on their way to attack the village any minute!" she proclaimed scarcely.
"Enemy?" Moka questioned. "Yes sir, they are the ones responsible for you and your people's curse. They've been using a spell on the moon while hiding out in the islands temple. So we're-" Rachelle was cut off when the chief shouted, "I don't care whos in the temple! Why haven't you destroyed the moon yet!?" he hollered waving a fist at the girls.
Rachelle took a step back and held her hands up in defense. 'Geez take it easy old man.' she said to herself. Lucy tried to calm down the chief in her panicked excuse. "Well you see, like Rachelle said it wasn't the moon that really did this to you! But now we've found out who did-" she was cut off to from his shouts.
"You Lie! Do what I've asked of you!" he immediately held back by two of the village men. "Chief! Please, you have to calm down!" "Come on lets go." As they walked away, Moka kept ranting out his frustration. "He doesn't mean it. He's just up set, he hasn't been the same since Bobo died." exclaimed one of the men to the girls.
Rachelle lowered her head in grief. "I know how he feels." she whispered. Pip (who was hiding in her hood the whole time) came out and rubbed his face against hers to comfort her. Lucky rubbed her head on her leg. "Hey we'll put an end to this. Don't worry." she gave the young wizard a small smile that was returned back to her.
Suddenly they hear Lucy yell out, "Open! Gate of the Maiden! Virgo!" she used her key to summon the spirit and the whole village went ga ga over her. "If only they saw what she looked like before." Rachelle sweat-dropped. Lucy did the same, "Yeah, she not that cute." she replied with a hint of jealously in her voice.
Later everyone gathered at the front gate. Both Virgo and Rachelle just finished making Lucy's um 'plan into motion. "Princess, her Highness and I have completed the task." "I told you Virgo, just call me 'Rachelle. You don't need to be formal with me, or any of my sisters." the little girl said. "Great work you two. My plan is going to work perfectly." Lucy said full of confidence.
Virgo thought other wise. "I'm not so sure." Rachelle sweat-dropped and bluntly said, "Yeah, sorry Lucy but I'm with her on this one. To be quite honest, I think this 'plan of yours has to be the most childish stunt you could ever come up with." the said spirit mage got mad while stomping her foot to the ground. "What did you two just say to me?!"
Happy raised his paw up to Lucy, "Hey Lucy," "Yeah, what is it?" she asked calming down. "I really hate to break it to you. But I think you might be..." he went hesitant till Lucky stepped in and bluntly retorted. "Just plan dumb." with a straight face.
Lucy deadpanned at them. "Wow, thanks a lot for the encouragement." she drawled sarcastically. Then both the cat and fox stated, "I just don't think anybody's gonna fall for you trap cause its the oldest trick in the book." "That and you don't even know if those morons are even going to use the front gate. They could attack at any direction."
"Lucky has a point Lucy." Rachelle pointed out. "Don't be silly you guys. A pit-fall trap always gets them." Lucy clamed with confidence again. Rachelle gloomed over at her, "They may have looked stupid but I doubt they're that dumb to not see what it is."
Lucy was still in denial. "Come on Rachelle. Out of the entire village there is only one way to get in. Sooo those guys will have no choice but to go over it. It's guarantee 'fool proof." she explained. But everyone still doubted her.
"Well I still don't think there is any way they'll fall for it." said Happy
A village raised her hand, "Um me either."
"Lucy, you have to be brain-dead in the head to fall for a second rank prank like this." Lucky rebuked.
"I'm sorry, but I have to agree with them." Said one of the village men.
"Yes, I have to concur." Virgo agreed.
"Not you to!?" shocked Lucy. She slightly turned away from them with a glare. "Fine, go ahead and doubt me. You'll see." she retorted. Suddenly one of the 'watchman shouted. "Miss Lucy! Miss Rachelle! It looks like there's someone headed this way!".
Both girls turned to face them. "That's gotta be them, Open the gate!" Lucy ordered. "I wasn't expecting them so soon." Lucky said. Rachelle closed her eyes as the guards started to open the gate.
By listening to the earth, the young wizard focused on the coming party. 'Wait a minute, I know those foot steps.' she opened her eyes and a sly smile started to come on her face. "Boy is Lucy in for a shock." she whispered, hiding her amusement.
Her five tailed partner looked at her then back at the opening gate. She gave off a deadpanned look and asked. "It's him coming isn't it?" Rachelle nodded. When the gate was fully opened, it reviled a wobbling 'iced Natsu with Gray over his shoulders.
"Hey guys! Are you all okay?!" he yelled out. Lucy screamed in shock as did Happy and the other villagers. "Natsu?!" Rachelle and Lucky were trying their absolute best to keep their laughter in. Lucy desperately did her best to stop Natsu from coming any closer. Eventually he stopped right in front of it just in time.
'What a downer.' Thought a disappointed girl and fox. "What's with the grass?" Natsu asked, taking a step forward. At that moment Rachelle and Lucky gave in and fell to the ground in full on hysterics as Natsu fell in the hole.
"He actually fell for it." deadpanned one of the village men. "Yeah, sorry we ever doubted you." replied the other. "Is he aware of the writing on his forehead?" asked another. Rachelle composed herself long enough to say, "I- I knew he was brain damaged but...I didn't think it was that bad!" she laughed.
"He, he, yeah. We should have him be our test dummy for our pranks from now on." Lucky suggested. In the hole, Natsu grunted, "Very funny you two. But we don't have time for practical jokes right now."
Leaning over the hole, Rachelle told him. "Excuse me, I wasn't the one who came up with this stupid idea. It was all Lucy, so blame her." "I should have known!" yelled Natsu. "It wasn't joke! It was suppose to be a trap!" Lucy cried out.
Then Happy leaned over. "I'm glad your okay. I was getting worried." "Come on Happy. Natsu fought with Gray for years so there's no way he'd let any ice get t o him." Lucky stated. "Speaking of, are you and Gray alright?" Rachelle asked.
Natsu grunted as he sat up. "Yeah I'm alright. But Gray's down for the 'count. He didn't look to good when I carried him." he explained. "That guy in the mask beat him that badly?!" Lucy asked in surprised. " *tisk* Looks like it. Psycho's like that who have dark ambitions can end up being stronger then others." Rachelle hissed sounding like she's had experience. Natsu didn't listen as he took note that the ice trap he was in was gone.
"Whoa, the ice must have cracked when I fell in!" he exclaimed in astonishment. Lucy nervously laughed as she said, "See, told you my 'pit-fall would work." Rachelle sweat-dropped at her. "Uh sorry to burst your bubble Lucy. But that wasn't the case at all. Natsu got free of the ice cause its obvious that Leon used a 'distance spell."
Lucy and Natsu looked at the little wizard. " 'Distance spell?" they questioned. "Yeah. Some spells, for instants Natsu's ice prison. Can last for a while when the said victim is still in the casters spell range. The further Natsu got from the temple Leon was at, the more the spell was weakening. And falling into your dumb pit finished the rest." she explained. "She's correct 'princess." Virgo agreed. "I'm Free!" Natsu cheered.
"Cheer for your freedom later dumb-dumb. Let's get Gray out of there." Lucky snarked. Soon the villagers helped get Gray out of the pit and carefully laid him down. Rachelle kept listening to the earth in case the attackers come. However, she didn't hear them at all. Only the people at the temple and the folks here including herself and the team.
"Where they go?" she asked in a whisper. "What's taking those three bums so long? They left long before we did back at the temple." Lucky pointed out. Natsu nodded, "Yeah, and with carrying Gray while in that giant ice-cube I was pretty slow."
"Yet you got here first before they did. Somethings not right." Rachelle said. Then Lucy made a determen smile on her face. "Alright! We still have a chance! So let's hurry and cover up that hole!" The group gave her a deadpanned look.
"Yeah they're soon not gonna fall for that. Both Rachelle and Natsu said. "You fell for it, so there might be a chance." Lucky snickered at Natsu, causing the said fire wizard to sneer at her.
"Look up there!" yelled out one of the villagers. The team looked up and saw something flying towards them. Upon closer inspection it was, "It's a giant flying rat!" "And it's carrying a bucket!" said the villagers.
Rachelle glared at it. 'So that's why I couldn't see them on the island. they were air-born during the whole thing.' Lucy seethed at rat in fury. "WHAT!? But now my pit-fall trap is totally worthless!" Lucky sweat-dropped at her. "Not like it was useful in the first place." "Oh shut it fox!"
Rachelle harden her gaze at the rat with the bucket. "Natsu, the smell that bucket is giving off." she exclaimed. "Yeah, I smell it to." Suddenly, they both caught sight of a drop of what in the bucket fall and towards the village. Or more specifically, over Lucy.
"Jelly?" she questioned as the stuff was nearing her head. Then in a flash, Natsu ran and shoved her out of the way. "Look out!" when the jelly met the ground, it dissolved a hole right where Lucy was.
"I knew it! That's 'Acidic Jelly! That stuff can even melt threw steel!" Rachelle cried out. "That flying rat has a bucket full of it!" panicked one of the villagers. "No! They're gonna dump it on top of us!" said the other. Rachelle turned over to Natsu.
"I got an idea, I'm gonna need your help." Natsu lifted up a fist to show his determination. "I'm in, what do you need me to do?" he asked. "First off you and Happy fly up and the moment that rodent tosses the jelly. Use your flames to disburse it. When that happens, I'll use my magic to protect the us and the villagers."
When Rachelle was done telling her plan, the rat tossed the jelly right over the village. "Crap! it's lose!" Lucky freaked. "How are we supposed to protect ourselves from acid jelly?!" Lucy screamed. Natsu started running off, "I want everyone with Rachelle in the center of the village right now!" he ordered. "Time to fly Happy!" "Aye sir!" Natsu jumped and Happy caught him in mid air.
"You guys heard him! All you over here now!" Rachelle demanded. Not a second longer all villagers including Lucy and still unconscious Gray came to the center of the village. "No! I wont leave Bobo's grave!" yelled the chief. "We don't have time for this old man! Get you rump over here now or else you'll get your face melted off!" Lucky shrieked.
As Rachelle watched Natsu start to flame up, she kneeled to the ground and started her magic. All around her, green magic appeared while the very earth itself shook. Her 'earth symbol started to glow. "Element Dragon! .. Earth Dome!" Suddenly walls of 'earth started to rise around the them, and domed at the top.
Just before it closed up, they all saw a flash of light. At the bottom of the dome where it meets the ground started to crumble. When Rachelle noticed this, she lifted her hands above her so the dome would stay. Lucky swished her tails and little light blue flames came off of them and lit up the area.
"Wait! Chief was still there!" cried one of the men. "!" the girls gasped till something burst from the ground. "Do you wish to punish him for disobeying you princess?" Virgo asked. "Girl you timing is astounding. Great job." Rachelle heaved, doing her best to keep the dome up. Then she heard, 'Alright Rachelle, you can drop the dome now.' said Natsu's voice. "Finally!" she huffed, then snapped her fingers.
In an instant, the entire dome crumbled and tuned to dust. As everyone lightly coughed and waved the dust away, Rachelle dropped her arms and plopped to the ground letting out an exhausted sigh. "You okay Rachelle?" Lucy asked worried. The said young wizard gave her a blank look. "Oh yeah~ just peachy, holding up giant rock domes to protect others from poison jelly is my favorite pass time." she responded, dripping with sarcasm.
When the smoke and dust cleared up, everyone was devastated of what they saw. "The entire village has been completely dissolved." said a villager. And he wasn't wrong, all around them what was once the village was now a giant crater. And where they stood was like a stump.
Natsu landed back down and went to Rachelle. "Great job bug, you did good." he smiled down at her. She huffed a smirk as she replied, "I'll accept your praise... once I get my stamina back."
Then, out of the blue, they heard chief utter. "Bobo's grave is still standing." Rachelle and Natsu turned and saw that he was right. "Dang, Kitsia told me that some spirits can be stubborn to go away. But their grave stone, I'll have to take note of this." Lucky joked. The young girl turned her head to the small fox and deadpanned.
"Since when do you take notes on anything?" the fox thought about it for a sec the said, "Good point." Suddenly, the two heard the sound of stone getting kicked and crumbling. Looking over, it was the three goons that caused the devastation.
Rachelle gave them the famous 'Lightgail death glare. 'Stepping on a kind soul's final resting place without a second thought is an all new low.' she menially growled. Then the one called Shelly spoke, "The cold emperor gave us orders to eradicate both the village and the villagers along with it. So that they could have a quick and painless death, as an act of 'mercy from us."
She and the other two stepped out of the dust so they could be seen, 'Waving off your hair doesn't make you look all that great Miss 'Lovy Dovy.' 'More like a great Miss love sick prima-donna.' Rachelle and Lucky insulted with a sear.
Their thought were cut short when they heard her say 'Bloodshed. "So, you want to get your hands dirty huh? Well sorry to disappoint, you aint laying a finger on us or the villagers." Rachelle growled as she got back on her feet.
Yuka smirked, "Fifty villagers, three wizards...shouldn't take longer then fifteen minutes." he calculated smugly. Natsu went into a fighting stance, "Get ready you two." "Right." Said Lucy, placing a hand on her key's. "I'm born ready Natsu. Let's kick their sorry butt's." Rachelle encouraged with a smirk of her own.
"Count again Eyebrows cause there are five wizards!" "Aye!" Lucky shouted back. The village men held down the chief as he went off in his anger again. "Wait." called out a raspy voice. The group turned to see Gray struggling to stand. "I'll fight to." he heaved. Natsu stayed quiet for a second. "Not gonna happen."
"Yeah, did that Ice Knight freeze your head or something? You can barly stand!" Lucky cried out to him. "Lucky's right Gray. The minute you try to fight, you'll be floored when one of them throws the first punch." Rachelle retorted as well.
"But...I have to." Gray was cut off when Natsu punched him in the gut. "Why don't you rest up and let us handle it." he said. Gray grabbed his scarf in anger as he tried to stay up. "Someday... I'll...Kill you." he went limp on Natsu. "Is knocking people out gonna be a habit with you?" Rachelle deadpanned. "Oh Shut up." Natsu retorted.
"But, but why did he-" Lucy looked saddened. "It's 'tough love Lucy. It's for the best." Lucky told her. "Aye, Since Gray is in no condition to fight. Natsu had no choice to stop him." Happy explained. "So...they do care for each other." said Lucy. Lucky nodded to her.
"Yep, probably more then they realize. But hey, that's Fairy Tail for you. We're way more then just a guild. We're a family till the very end."
Natsu gave Gray to one of the village men. "Sir, please take care of him for us while we settle this." Rachelle said to him. "Don't worry miss Rachelle, he's in good hands." then he turned to the rest of the villagers, "Alright let's go!" and they were off.
Shelly smiled, "We're not leaving till every last person here is dead! Come Angelica!" the rat shrieked as it jumped and flew off. "As if we're gonna let you get away so easilyyyyyyyyyyyyy!" Lucy yelled out sounding far away.
"What the heck!?" cried Rachelle
"What went on in her head to do that!?" yelled Lucky.
"She's stupid that's what." said Happy
"More like insane!" Natsu panicked.
As they were a few miles away from them the rat suddenly stopped and started to... Rachelle lifted a brow "Is, that rat..." "Laughing?" the group questioned, tilting their heads. Then it along with Shelly and Lucy fell to the earth. When they landed, Natsu and Rachelle sweat-dropped.
"Well that happened." Rachelle stated. "You think she's okay?" Natsu asked. "She's survived this long with us for almost a month now. I'm sure she's fine, knowing her she probably got off and landed somewhere safe and away from where that thing did." she exclaimed. "Your probably right."
"If not and that rat crushed her, then she might be a goner instead." Happy sighed. "What kind of messed up mind do you have?" Lucky asked leaning away from the cat all creeped out. Then she faced the two wizards. "We'll go and check on her and see if she needs help." she said, mist formed at the bottom of her and took off in the air. Happy followed suite.
"Thanks you two." said Natsu. He turned around and glared at the two below him, so di Rachelle. "We'll deal with these moron's no problem." she said. Then all at once, they both jumped off the edge and attacked Toby first. Natsu head butted him while Rachelle kneed him. Sending him flying.
In the air, Natsu whirled around and breathed fire at Yuka. Rachelle launched some rocks as well. But she saw the rock bounce off of something as Natsu's flames dispersed showing Yuka was unfazed by their attacks. In front of the said man, there looked like some sort of forcefield.
"A wizard who breath's out fire? Please tell me your not the infamous 'Salamander of Fairy Tail I've heard so mush about?" Yuka snarked. "Watch the attitude eyebrows." Rachelle growled. The said wizard growled back at her. "My name is Yuka you brat." Rachelle just smirked, "Na, I'll stick with 'eyebrows. Since that's the most noticeable characteristic about you."
Yuka was now seething in anger. Toby managed to get back on his feet, like he was never hurt at all. "I'm good!" he shouted. "Oh good for you. Cause I've got a bone to pick with you mutt face." the young wizard glared at him. "Aro? You have a bone?" He asked with a tilt of his head. Rachelle sweat-dropped.
"I've had my fair share of fighting weirdo's, but you two take the cake." she retorted. "Watch your mouth little girl. We two used to be members of a famous wizard guild, so don't go and blow us off. In fact the great 'Iron Rock Jura was once a member of that same guild." Yuka exclaimed smugly. Toby growled in agreement.
"So you used to be in Lamia Scale huh? Now I feel bad for them." Rachelle glared. The two wizards scowled at her. "Hey you kid! What's that supposed to mean!?" Toby ranted at her.
"Exactly how it sounds mutt. Gee, I can't imagine what would happen if word got out that two former wizards of Lamia Scale were out pulling a stunt that a Dark guild would do, if not worse. In fact, I bet that Jura himself would feel ashamed knowing that you were once his guild mates. You know he puts down wizards who do this sort of thing right?" Rachelle askes.
All of a sudden she jumped out of the way as Toby comes at her swinging his claws at her. "Hey watch it!" she yelled. "Nobody disses us like that!" Toby barked, then he turned to Yuka. "I'll deal with this kid Yuka." the said wizard nodded to him. "Right, and I'll deal with him." he said pointing to Natsu.
Natsu faced Rachelle. "You alright by yourself bug?" he asked. Rachelle punched the palm of her hand while cracking her neck to the sides. "Oh you bet." she smirked. Toby smirked at her back. "Don't go underestimating me kid. I'm a whole lot stronger then I look. Check out my awesome mega 'jelly fish paralyzing claws! Totally retro, bet you'll never be able what they can do?" he monologed, showing off his pointy green claws.
Rachelle gave him the biggest deadpanned look she could muster, "They paralyze your opponents when you scratch them." she said plainly. Toby was dumb founded by her right answer. "Whoa... Your so right." he backed away from her. "Are you some sort of mind reader kid?"
Rachelle sweat dropped, "No, your just down right stupid." she said. Toby tries to claw her again. "Nobody talk about me like that!" Rachelle keeps on dodging him till she jumps a few feet from him. "Let's just get this over with." she huffed. Soon she kicks her heel into the ground and it crumbles down to where Toby was about to step.
As soon as his foot met the earth, the rubble guided it the other way making him do the side-splits.
Toby let out a howl of pain. While he was distracted, Rachelle used her earth magic once more. Pillars of rock shot out of the ground and flung Toby into the air and right to the wall of the crater. Practically emended in it. "That should keep you for a while." she grinned. "You are so brutal." quivered a voice behind her.
She looked to find Natsu behind him shacking and scrunching his face in pain, as if feeling the experience himself. Rachelle rolled her eyes at him, "Oh get over it you big baby." she huffed and walked off. "I'm gonna go check on Lucy and the others. See if their okay." she told him. Natsu brought up a shaky thumbs up. "Sounds good." he quipped.
Running off, Rachelle was already in the forest heading to where the giant rat crashed. "Well looks like some one's in a hurry." said a voice. Skidding to a halt, Rachelle looked around. Then looking up in the tree's she finds a weird man wearing what looked like tribal a mask.
Rachelle just glared at him, "Let me guess, your one of Icey Knight's goonies?" the man laughed. "I'd prefer the term associate but yes; I'm aiding him in his goal in reviving Deliora." As he said that, Rachelle lifted some rocks in the air around her. "If it's a fight your here for-" "I assure you young one I'm not, besides I wasn't ordered to anyway." he stated.
She lowered the rocks a little. "Then way are you here?" she asked. The cheeky man smirked at her. "Why I wanted to see one of the famous Lightgails I've heard about. And might I say, for a child such as your age your quite talented." he mused.
The glare deepened on Rachelle's face, "Your flattery is getting you nowhere so get to the point already." she barked. "Saw though me did you? Alright then, Tell me where I can find Elementcha's great weapon." he demanded.
'Elementcha's weapon?' she questioned, Rachelle tilted her head telling him all he need to know. " *Sigh* Appears you don't know what I'm talking about." "Me and my sister may be Elementcha's daughters and told us secrets. However she didn't tell us everything. And there are reasons for that." Rachelle pointed a finger at him, he waved his hand in defense. "I understand."
The man turned his back to her, but before he left Rachelle yelled out. "Hey! Just for the record! Don't go underestimating me! Or My sister's! Or Fairy Tail! Cause if you do, we'll pound you to the ground." she growled out at that last claim.
The man turned his head a bit and gave her an amusing smug grin. "How laughable. You think you can scare me with that pitiful threat?" Rachelle shook in anger for how he wasn't taking her seriously. "In case you didn't get the picture." The man turned around to face her, wondering what she ment by that.
As soon as he did, he was meet with a bolder the size of Lucky ramming right to his gut. Knocking the air out of him and sending the weird man flying till he was out of sight. Rachelle turned around and went back to running, with a big smirk on her face. 'I do not regret that one bit.' she laughed in her thoughts.
Soon she came to a clearing where the rat was. It was still out of commission, however the area around it was a total wreck. "Did a fight go down here?" All of a sudden she heard a familiar scream. "Lucy!" she ran off to where her friend was. Rachelle stopped at a side of a cliff, over near the ledge was that love-sick woman Shelly. "Is that a golem?" Rachelle questioned.
Then she heard Shelly yell out a command, "Finish her 'Rock Doll!" Rachelle made a deadpanned face. "Thats really it's name? Golem is waaay better." She saw it jump off the ledge. Running up to the edge, she saw it stomp near Lucy was. "Lucy Run!" she yelled down.
"Rachelle? What are you doing here?!" Lucy yelled back. "Oh? So the little girl is here? This is great! Once I finish you off I'll capture that girl and hand her over to the 'Cold Emperor! Then he'll trust me again and 'Love me!" Shelly exclaimed happily.
"Boy dose she have a screw-lose." both Fairy Tail girls sweat-dropped. "Rachelle! don't use your earth magic on her! She can control spirits as puppets! And create them with nonliving things to!" Lucy warned her. "Ha! As if the little wizard can help you!" Shelly claimed. "Get her 'Rock Doll!" and the golem did just that.
'Crap!' Rachelle jumped down to the beach and tried to figure out a way to help Lucy. "What can I do? If I try to use any earth magic, Miss Prima-donna will Just make it into a puppet. And if she can control spirits, Lucy's celestial spirits are out of the question." Then she looked to see the rock puppet leading Lucy to the sea.
"If I remember correctly, Lucy said she's not in good terms with Aquarius." the minute she recalled that, Rachelle got an idea. 'I hope Lucy will catch on.' she hoped.
"Ha! Ha! Ha! I'm gonna crush you like a bug! Sorry no love for you!" Shelly moved her hands to command the rock puppet to attack Lucy, but it never did. "Hey! What gives?!" " Enough with the whole 'love thing already! Lucy now! Bring out Aquarius!" Rachelle yelled. The two wizards looked to find Rachelle off to the side using her magic to keep the puppet in place.
Shelly fumed at her, "Hey! That's not fair controlling my 'Rock Doll!" "Oh like you controlling Lucy's spirits is!?" Rachelle retorted back. "Open! Gate of the water barer! Aquarius!" Lucy plunged her key into the water and out came the spirit. 'So that's Aquarius.' Rachelle thought, seeing the spirit for the first time.
However when Lucy gave the said spirit a command. Aquarius just 'tisk, and a whole lot of drama went down. "Wow, and here I thought Lauryn had an attitude." Then as expected, Shelly used her magic on Aquarius. But the mermaid did not look pleased. Soon she made a giant cyclone whirl pool that consumed both Lucy and Shelly.
"Tah, and I thought the blonde one was dumb. I can close my own gate thank you very much." Aquarius snarked. "Dang. You really are your own boss are you?" Rachelle asked with a deadpanned grin. The mermaid spirit turned to her. "Aw, so your one of the girls Virgo mentioned." she gave the young wizard an amused smile.
"I bet men go crazy for your sisters. Since they seem to be decent enough, unlike those two." she said quoting the washed out woman. Rachelle sweat dropped. "I wouldn't get ahead of myself like that. Besides, Nicole already has a man and I'm not ready to take that 'step anytime soon." she drawled.
"Humph. Don't be so sure, and tell your sister that if she ever wants any tips with swooning men, let me know. Bu-bye~." with that, Aquarius disappeared. Rachelle sweat-dropped even more, "Yeah, I wouldn't hold your breath."
As soon as the waves were gone, Lucy and Shelly got up dizzy and babbling like idiots. Rachelle just watched as a 'cat fight went down. "Annnnd they say I have immature fights with my sister?" she uttered out. Then finally Lucy rammed her arm over Shelly's neck, making the final blow.
As Shelly fell. She started to babble her 'undying love to the cold emperor. "Yesh, 'Drama queen much." Rachelle spat. When Shelly met the ground, she utter out. "Angelica... Avenge your dead master." Suddenly the rat sprang out of no where and went straight to the girls. "Are you kidding me!" Rachelle was about to make a move till the rat was floored by fire, a gust of wind and a sword.
When it fell and was out cold. Rachelle got a clear look at the people that saved them. "Oh we are so screwed." she proclaimed.
To Be Continued...
