REWRITTEN AND REPOSTED

The battlefield was even with the arrival of their friends.
"I think it's time we showed all our cards." Levy shouted so that those gathered heard her. Her stamen has her earning a nod from Lucy. Lucy took a deep breath and released it as her body began to be covered in a bright light blocking her from view from everyone. All who were gathered spirits and mages covered their eyes. When the pillar of light faded and to the shock of everyone except for Levy, Natsu, Happy and Yukino, before them Lucy stood looking very different. It was not the changes to her hair that broke from her styled up hairdo she sported previously, her hair now flowing free with a slight twirl and curl as her blonde hair now seemed to gleam and glitter like as star. Nor was it the change of her clothes, her outfit replaced with a beautiful blacken night shy loose blazer with a beautiful midnight sky crop top similar to the one she had on before but this one seemed to have a feint outline of two symbols merged as one, her skirt now replaced with a black skirt that was between her thighs and knee that when one leg shifted revealed it was a black skort not a skirt. It wasn't the changes to her eyes, the solid broken eyes now seeming to dance with flecks of gold like diamonds. It even was not because dangling from her hips her keys, back now, that hung off her hips while the other side dangled her celestial whip. Nor was it because of an additional key that dangled from the gold chain that while no different from the keys on her hip still seemed to draw everyone to look at it as it sat around her neck. It was none of these changes that made her look so different it was instead from the power that was now radiating off of her.
"What is this?" Screamed the Eclipse Virgo.
"What happened to Lucy?" Questioned Juvia.
"How did she get that key around her neck." Snarled the eclipsed Loke as he looked closer at the key hanging from her neck. His questioned earned a smile from Lucy one that seemed to radiate danger and almost seemed predatory.
"If you must know, I made a deal." Answered Lucy.
\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/
"Guys look." Pointed Levy.
The room was filled with a bright glow a glow that was all too familiar with the two celestial mages. It was the glow of a gate being opened. The glow had dimmed, but it had not faded away from where the glow originated was a ball of light.
"What is it?" Questioned Natsu taking a battle stance in case one of the celestial spirits had come back to finish them off.
"I am the most powerful constellation of the celestial world. The only constellation that does not have a form. One of you bears a whip from me." Stated a voice that seemed to embrace them from all around but was clearly originating form the ball of light. "My name is Eridanus." A soft feminine voice answered. The voice seems not to have any origin for it echoed in the minds of all that were there.
"The river of stars." Breathed Lucy.
"The eclipse forms of the zodiac constellations have the globe but not all is lost. There is still a chance to save them." The voice, Eridanus explained to the group.
"How?" asked Yukino.
"It is quite simple I surrender myself to be taken over by a celestial wizard who will then be the form of the constellation yet still human. They will have my powers and the power of the most treasured star to them, the star of a single spirit who is loved. They will never be affected as the zodiac spirits have been by the eclipse. Their powers would rival even the king of the stars. They will still be a celestial wizard. But there is a price for this power they must give up their mortality and live as long as the stars do, to be cursed to see the ones they love age around them and die." Eridanus answered. "Only a strong wizard who holds love for a star in their hearts can ever even dream to be able to accept this. Only one who has fallen in love with a spirit can take this power." For some reason Lucy felt as if the next words were going to be directed at her. "For only love can share the star of Regulus." Lucy then let out a gasp at the last sentence.
"Someone who loves Loke?!" She gasped.
"So what?" asked Happy, "Does that mean you think Lucy loves Loke?"
"Lucy Heartfilla since you were a little girl you have caught my eye. Your kindness to everyone impressed me so much. When you risked your life to save that of Leo the lion to stand up to the spirit king, I knew that you were the one I should be blessing. I am truly thankful that you accepted the gift that Virgo gave you that bares my name." Eridanus said.
"Please wait, are you saying…" started Yukino
"Lucy Heartfilla, you know in your heart that you have fallen for the lion spirit. And he loves you. Lucy Heartfilla will you give up your mortality to live forever with the stars to gain the power of my constellation and that of the Regulus star, the star of the spirit you love?" Eridanus asked. All eyes fell on Lucy. As the blonde mage stood there as if she was frozen. Her eyes were wide, her mouth opened in a gasp but yet there was no sound escaping.
"Lucy." Nudged Happy. As he flew up to hover by Lucy's arm as he tugged on her shrug's sleeve. "I know I've teased you in the past about Loke a lot, and I'm probably still going to do it. But If you love him then you should stay with him for as long as you can. If you love him, you wouldn't want to force him in watching you die."
"Lu-chan, your my best friend, I can't imagine asking you to give up growing old with the rest of us, only to make you have to watch us all die." The blunette added.
"Lucy you don't have to sacrifice your mortality. Don't feel like you have to be pressured into this." Called Natsu he glared at the ball of light floating there. "How dare you come here and try to guilt Lucy into doing this. You don't know who Loke is and you don't know how she feels about Loke. Loke is a Playboy." Yelled Natsu. As fire burst from his fist, Lucy grabbed and Natsu from behind holding him back. As Levy and Yukino stood between the fire dragonslayer and Eridanus.
"Stop it Natsu!" Yelled Lucy. "Don't say that about him." Natsu glanced at Lucy.
"Lucy?" he asked.
"She's right I always rejected Loke because I didn't know if he was flirting with me or if he was being truthful when he proclaimed his love for me all those times. But I do love him, and that right now he isn't himself right now nor are those my other spirits. They need my help. I cannot let them finish the ceremony only to lose their lives 12 days later. This isn't them, and this wouldn't be what they want." She declared her voice dropping to a soft tone. "It isn't them, those aren't my spirits." Tears starting to well up in the blonde's eyes. Natsu's fire was extinguished as he hugged Lucy. Her friends went over to comfort her.
"She's right," Yukino said breaking the silence following the blonde's statement. "I know Pisces and Libra, this isn't them. We don't know what's going on, but we will stop them." She declared.
"I'm afraid it has all to do with the opening and closing of the eclipse gate. For it has impacted the king and when he slept. As such the king was then taken over by darker force. When this happened, the zodiac spirits were also consumed by the eclipse darkness." Explained Eridanus. "It's because of this that they have forgotten, their memories have been consumed with darkness blotting out all the good that has been given to them. Which is why they do not remember anything of Lucy and Yukino."
"That must be why their personalities are different too." Realized Levy. The light just floated up and down as if nodding to her statement.
"You would be correct. As is the dragonslayer as there are other ways to stop them, but I had to present this option as well. There are many paths to be taken here, my offer does not need to be taken for you to stop them."
"I need to thank you." Exclaimed Lucy earning shocked looks from her friends. "My heart has been inner turmoil for a while now. Many things had happened at the games, I witness a future version of me's death. I have to wonder if she became that lonely and sad because she wanted to guard herself and put space between her and Loke which resulted in everything else that happened to her. I don't want to become her." Lucy looked down towards her feet as tears fell to the floor. When she looked up even the tears were welling in her eyes it was a look of strength and determination, demonstrating her stubbornness and her inability to give up. "I saw his reaction when he saw my future self-die, he was in pain. Even though that Lucy is no longer going to be my future, I refuse to let this happen. I refuse to let Loke die. Not before I tell him the truth to the form I know and have fallen in love with. To tell him that I love him." Lucy yelled. Levy and Yukino went to comfort the crying blonde mage as Happy, and Natsu moved away and stood behind her.
"Then that's what's going to happen, you'll get to tell the Loke we all know." Natsu declared earning a tearful smile from Lucy.
"I have no doubt that you and your friends will fight the good fight to save them." Eridanus stated, "With you and your guild. You have many options besides my offer."
"Is your offer still an option?" Asked Lucy.
"We can always find another way you don't have to do this." Yukino added. The blonde had closed her eyes and took a deep breath she opened them her friends could see a hard line in them. Lucy looked at the ball of light floating there.
"I'll do it." Stated Lucy her answer echoing throughout the room.
"Lucy Heartfilla, I leave you with my power and my blessing to take the mantle of the constellation Eridanus. I wish you luck in saving the zodiac constellation," Eridanus declared. Everyone stepped back from Lucy not sure what would happen next. "celestial spirit Princess." Finished Eridanus and with her last words the ball of light grew very bright and dove into Lucy disappearing inside of her.
Lucy fell to her knees her hand supporting her weight as she struggled to stay up right and not fall flat on the floor. As the others went to her, they were forced to back off as her skin began to glow with a bright golden light. It was growing brighter and brighter until the others had to close their eyes as Lucy became consumed in the ever glowing light.
When they felt that light had faded from their closed eyes, her friends looked towards where she was. Lucy no longer sat there, looking the way they had knew her. Lucy's long blonde hair had broken free from the elastic bonds her hair reshaped to the a longer style decorated with little twirls and curls similar to the style she had worn at the time she first arrived at a Fairytail. Yet instead of the blue ribbon, in it's place a ribbon that seemed to have stars dancing on them. Her big brown eyes are now dotted with gold. She wore long black boots similar to those she wore when she at first arrived at Fairytail with a slightly inclined heel. A black leather jacket/ blazer mix was on her, with a black skirt that was between the length of a miniskirt and a knee length skirt and midnight sky crop top. Through the belt loops of the skirt no skort when a glimpse of shorts underneath peaked out was belt where on one side was a very small chain link where attached to it was her keys including the missing gold ones. On the other stood a leather handle with her whip. But what caught the attention of the rest was around her neck was a gold chain and on it dangling from a metal loop was Loke's key, the key of the lion or another copy of it at least.
"Come on guys we have spirits to save." Proclaimed Lucy as she stood tall. Her friends all exchanged a small smile and beamed at the blonde celestial mage/spirit. They now had an advantage over the zodiac spirits.
"we should disguise Lucy to look like what she what she did when Virgo was here. In case we run into anyone else." Suggested Yukino.
\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/
"Lucy gave up her mortality." Gasped Cana.
"It doesn't matter what you've become you can't stop us." Roared the eclipsed lion spirit enraged. As Virgo leaped to attack her. Lucy yanked a golden key off from her hip and screamed.
"Restore gate of the Golden Maiden, Virgo." And Virgo was consumed by bright golden light and when faded revealed she was back to normal or at least her eyes were she still had on the same outfit but know the old headwear from her maid outfit was on top of her head. As Virgo assessed the situation, she instantly leapt in front of Lucy turning her back turned towards her master as she glared daggers at the other spirits in front of her.
"I can't seem to remember what has been going on, but it seems I must be thanking you from saving me from something, princess." Stated Virgo.
"I'm just glad you're back to normal Virgo I really didn't want to fight you again." Replied Lucy extending her arm and squeezing the spirit in front of her by the shoulder. The tender moment was destroyed by the eclipsed Leo's voice.
"We now know your trick and will not be caught off-guard because of it." He gave an evil smirk.
"Princess, I feel as if you will need to fill me in on what I have missed." Answered Virgo.
"I think that will have to wait." Inputted Gray as he took his shirt off. "Now come at me Loke." He yelled Infuriated Loke blasted a dark Regulus attack towards them. Natsu, Gray, Wendy and Juvia responded with their powers deflecting the attack and causing dust to rise up creating a smokescreen. As it faded the spirits were all in front of their now opened gates.
"If you really want to stop us, follow us in. We'll show you how far will go for true freedom." Loke said as he faded into the light of the gate.
"Loke," screamed to Lucy trying to run forward but being held back by Virgo. "Loke no!"
