Deciding to have some enjoyment and fun, Lucy and Erza decided to have a sleepover at Erza's house. They were getting ready for their fun night as they got snacks, drinks, and movies ready. With them already changed in their pajamas, they got themselves ready for a fun night.
"Got the juice?" Erza asked.
"Right here. Got the movies?" Lucy asked.
"Got them." Erza said.
"Thanks for letting me sleepover." Lucy said.
"No problem. Tonight, some sleepover fun. Tomorrow, we're hitting the best Fun Land; the best amusement park ever." Erza said. The two of them were pretty excited for tomorrow. There was also one more that was with them tonight as she got out of the bathroom. As she finished combing her long blue hair, she didn't seem excited as the other two were. "Hey, Wendy. Are you going to bed already?"
"Yeah... I'm just not in the mood for a movie, Erza." Wendy said. "I'll see you both tomorrow. Thanks again for inviting me tomorrow." She just went straight to bed with the girls concerned about her.
"Is your cousin okay?" Lucy asked.
"I hope so." Erza said. "The truth is that some kids at her school have been giving her a hard time. They call her a goodie-goodie, a buzzkill, and other things some rotten kids call well behaved kids like Wendy. One kid even called her a squealer and snitch for telling a teacher that he was up to no good, blaming her that he got grounded and detention for a week."
"Oh no. No one wants to look like they're boring or something, but I hope she understands that she shouldn't take it too personal." Lucy said.
"Don't worry about her. Wendy's a good kid." Erza said. "She and I have been close for a long time. That's why I know she's going to be fine, especially when we hit the amusement park. Anyway, there's something else I want to talk to you about. Do you remember when you and Levy went to the museum? You discovered Celestria on a papyrus and that lead us to think that Celestria is over five-thousand years old."
"Yeah..." Lucy said as she was nervous about where this was going.
"Well, Levy has done some research. She doesn't think that's the same Celestria." Erza said.
"Levy is still trying to uncover Celestria's identity?" Lucy questioned.
"Yeah. Apparently, she's deduced that the Celestria we know is around our age or something." Erza claimed. "She's getting her hands on every bit of info she can to uncover her identity."
"Erza, has it ever occurred to you or Levy that Celestria keeps her identity a secret for a reason?" Lucy asked.
"What do you mean?" Erza said.
"Classic superhero rule, maybe the top one." Lucy said. "Celestria needs to keep her identity a secret to protect her loved ones. If people like Black Wizard knew who she was, they would use them against her. Now, how about we drop it and select a movie to watch." Lucy hoped to keep her identity a secret and she tries her best everyday. With someone like Levy trying to uncover it, she has to be extra careful.
"Hey, I'm only telling you what Levy has been telling me." Erza said as Lucy was trying to pick a movie. "I've got to admit that I wish I was a hero myself. It sounds like it would be a lot of fun and exciting."
"Probably most of the time, but would you want your loved ones in danger?" Lucy said to try and get Erza on her side. While they were trying to sort this out, Wendy tried to get some rest. However, the things some people from school told her are still echoing in her head.
"What a loser."
"You are such a pest. You're a crybaby, Wendy."
"Mind your own business."
"Figures. Wendy doesn't know how to have fun, so she wants to ruin it for everyone."
"She's like a scared little kid. Look at her. She still puts her hair in pigtails."
All that stuff some troublemaking kids from her school told her kept bothering her. She got up from her bed and grabbed a couple red clips. She stood in front of a mirror and put her hair in pigtails with the clips holding them in place. She began thinking she did look like some little kid and she wants to look more mature. Those rotten kids really got to her and she kept thinking negative things about herself.
"Am I really boring? Am I just some scared kid that doesn't know how to have fun?" Wendy questioned herself. Those words got to her and she was hurt. No one ones to come across as boring, a snitch, or a coward. However, Wendy doesn't know what she can do to change that. As she dropped to her knees, she began thinking she really is some loser and too scared to do anything about it.
...
Black Wizard
Even when others get ready for bed, Zeref stays up for those who have negative thoughts. With him now as Black Wizard, he knows exactly what to do to help Wendy.
"It's fun to do things you shouldn't do. When something seems so wrong, it feels so right." Black Wizard said. "What's so wrong with doing what we want to do?" Helping Wendy with her problem, he took an etherious and filled it with dark power. "Fly, my evil little etherious, and evillize her!" He released the etherious and sent it into the night.
...
Erza's Home
As Wendy was beating herself up, the etherious made its way into Wendy's room. It entered one of the clips in her hair and connected her to Black Wizard.
"Imp, I'm Black Wizard. You want to prove you can be a troublemaker yourself? I can help with that. You'll have the courage to do whatever you want and won't get in trouble for it."
"I can?" Wendy questioned.
"Yes because another Imp will take the blame." Black Wizard said. "However, you must do something for me in return. I want the miraculous from Celestria and Salamondra. With so many of you, it shouldn't be a problem. Okay?"
"Okay." Wendy said as she actually agreed and began to transform. As for Erza and Lucy, they were still talking about Celestria's identity.
"Come on, Lucy. Aren't you the least bit curious? Don't you want to know about Celestria?" Erza asked.
"It doesn't matter if I am." Lucy said. "A good hero keeps their identity a secret. Now, will you just drop it?"
"Well, if I knew her identity, I would help her out." Erza said. "Plus, if I get it in good with her, I could become a superhero myself."
"It might seem exciting, Erza, but there's more to it than fun and excitement." Lucy said.
"Are you saying I wouldn't make a great superhero?" Erza.
"No..." Lucy said as she really wasn't, but she doesn't know what to say now to get Erza to understand. They didn't talk about it anymore when they heard some sort of noise coming from Wendy's room.
"Wendy? Are you okay in there?" Erza said. She got up and went to see if her cousin is okay. When she opened the door, she was surprised to see what was making a mess of the room. Wendy now had pink edgy hair with her hairclips turned black and now joined as one and still kept her hair in pigtails. Her skin was as white as snow. She also wore a black top with torn sleeves with black pants and boots with fingerless gloves. She looked like a junior punk. "Wendy?!"
"Not anymore. I'm Imp!" She jumped right at Erza, but Erza moved out of the way. Imp was making a mess of the apartment as she knocked over furniture and tossed everything she could around. When it came to the food, she gobbled down everything she could. When she ate, more of her popped out of nowhere.
"She multiplies when she eats!" Lucy said. With more Imps, more trouble was being made. Not wanting to be confined in the apartment, Imp and her copies made their way outside. She ate more that she could and was multiplying at a rapid rate. They looked outside and the girls could see chaos was quickly spreading. "This isn't good."
"I've got to go after Wendy." Erza said. Not waiting around, she hurried outside and began searching for the real Wendy. Lucy couldn't let Erza handle something like this alone. She let Stella out of her purse and got ready.
"Stella, Twinkle!" Lucy had Stella pulled into her earrings and became Celestria. Celestria had to move fast, but because Imps were appearing everywhere. They're causing mischief, trouble, pulling pranks, and anything else troublemakers do. The more they eat, the more they multiply.
...
Natsu
"These most recent villains are spreading mayhem through the whole city as they appear to be everywhere." Bisca reported with Natsu watching the news from his home. Even she ended up getting attacked by Imps.
"This just in... This city is ours!" An Imp said as things began to go out of control.
"Time to go work, Igneel." Natsu said as he was ready, but didn't see him. "Igneel?"
"These food thieves aren't getting my meat." Igneel said as he made sure his meat was secured. "What are you waiting for? Transform already!"
"Igneel, Fire Up!" Igneel was ready for a fight this time as he allowed himself to be pulled in the ring and allowed Natsu to become Salamondra.
...
The Streets
The streets of Paris were practically overrun with Imps everywhere. Whatever they got their hands on, they messed up and even tried to eat it. One even messed around with the traffic lights.
"Don't you know it's dangerous to play with those lights?" Celestria said as she showed up.
"Someone needs a time out." Salamondra said as he showed up as well. Celestria pulled the hairpiece out and broke it apart with that Imp disappearing. "How did you know to break that hair-thing?"
"It's...really the only thing that stands out." Celestria said.
"But no etherious." Salamondra said.
"That's because this was only a copy. To find the etherious, we need to find the original Imp. The one that Black Wizard etheriouized." Celestria said.
"You mean we gotta catch them all?" Salamondra questioned. "There's so many. How are going to find out which one has the etherious?"
"We don't have a choice." Celestria said. Seeing as how they're is no other way, they did what they could. They took on as many Imps as they could and broke all the hairpieces to try and find the etherious. They tried everything they could to get as many of them as they could. Salamondra tripped a rickshaw and sent some flying with Celestria using her whip to break the hairpieces. Some recklessly drove around in cars until Salamondra dived in and broke their hairpieces. Celestria took constrction equipment they were playing with and used it to break the pieces. However, no matter what they tried, they just kept coming. The Imps might disappear when their etheriouized object is broken, but there was still no sign of the etherious.
"Celestria, this isn't working." Salamondra said. "There's just too many of them."
"Your right. Just look over there." Celestria said as she pointed to Sherry's ice cream cart. They saw an Imp serving other Imps and they just kept multiplying. "The more they eat, the more they multiply."
"It's like every time we take down one, three more show up." Salamondra said. If they don't do something soon, they'll be overwhelmed. Black Wizard could see that.
"You're having fun, Imp. However, you still must bring me the miraculous. They can't stop all of you." Black Wizard said. Some of the Imps spotted the two heroes.
"Miraculous!" The Imps called as they all charged at the two heroes. The two of them did what they could to fight them off. With a strike of their weapons and a kick of their feet, they're keeping the Imps back, but it's only a matter of time until they're overwhelmed.
"We can't keep this up. Time to even the odds." Celestria said as she got ready. "Open the Celestial Gate!" She used her powers and it ended up being a teapot.
"A teapot? I don't think tea is going to settle these girls down." Salamondra said as he tried to keep them away. Celestria looked around, but she didn't a see a thing that could help them.
"That's weird. I can't figure out how to use it." Celestria said.
"Better come up with something soon!" Salamondra said as he was struggling. Celestria looked at the item, but noticed something else about it.
"That's weird. There's no zodiac sign on it." Celestria said. When she studied it, she realized she saw this teapot somewhere before. "That's it! I know someone who can help! Just try to hold on until I get back!" She knew where to go and took off to get that help.
"No worries. I'll just deal with an entire army until you get back." Salamondra said as he could see he was in for a rough time.
...
Mavis
Celestria recognized the teapot as the one Mavis has. As she enjoyed herself a cup of tea, she saw Lucy come rushing in.
"Lucy? What are you doing here? You're not suppose to see Master Mavis today." Pixi said.
"Let her talk, Pixi." Mavis said.
"Master Mavis, I used my powers to try and fight off this new villain." Lucy said. "The weird part was that there was no zodiac sign on it. I think it was really telling me to come here."
"I see..." Mavis said as she thinks she has an idea of what's happening. "Lucy, the miraculous works in mysterious ways. I think it's telling you it need help this time." She went towards the record and was about to pull out the miraculous, but was hesitant. "I'm not sure it's a good idea. I took a big risk letting two miraculous out, but they're powers were needed."
"You made the right choice. Salamondra and I have done so much good." Lucy said. Mavis decided to trusts Lucy. She entered the code and pulled out the box holding all the miraculous.
"Lucy, pick an ally you can trust." Mavis said as she placed the box down and revealed all the miraculous. "You will give that person a miraculous, but choose wisely. Such powers should be used for the greater good. Once the mission is over, you must bring the miraculous back. Until we have unlocked all the secrets of the miraculous, we can't allow anymore to be left uncheck. We can't allow them to fall into the wrong hands."
"Like Black Wizard." Lucy said.
"Exactly." Mavis said. Now that she knows the stakes, she has to choose carefully. She needs to choose the right miraculous and the right person to give it to.
"Imp is persistent. I'm going to need someone strong, brave, and can handle the situation." Lucy said. When she thought about it, she knows the miraculous to take. She reached for the one that was a hairclip and shaped like a sword.
"Do you have someone in mind to help you?" Mavis asked.
"Yes. I know just the person." Lucy said as she can only think of one person that's perfect.
...
Erza
"Wendy, please try to calm down. We can work something out." Erza said as she was talking to the Imps playing on a merry-go-round. Her attempts fail, but Celestria did show up. She used her whip and tried breaking all the hairpieces, but not one had the etherious. "Celestria! I'm glad to see you. My cousin has been etheriouized."
"Don't worry. We'll get her back, but I need your help." Celestria said.
"My help?!" Erza said as she couldn't believe it. "Lucy and Levy are never going to believe this!"
"Wait, Erza. This has to be a secret. You can't even tell your closest friends." Celestria said.
"Oh... Okay." Erza said.
"Erza Scarlet, this is the miraculous of the knight, which grants the power of weaponry. You will use it for the greater good." Celestria said as she handed her a small box that contained the miraculous. Erza couldn't believe she was being given this. "Once the mission is over, you must return the miraculous to me. Can I trust you?"
"I'm honored. I won't let you down." Erza said as she took the miraculous. When she opened the box, a light came out and flew around. "What is that thing?" The light stopped in front of her and formed a silver kwami that pads over its tiny shoulders and had feather on his head like how a knight had one.
"I'm not a thing. I'm Steel, your kwami."
"Kwami?" Erza questioned.
"I am what will give you your powers." Steel said. This has to be the greatest moment of Erza's life.
"Are you ready to become a superhero?" Celestria asked.
"Ready." Erza said as she held her hair back and placed the clip to hold it in a tail, with it looking like a normal hairclip.
"You just need to say "Steel, Armor On!" Steel explained.
"Steel, Armor On!" Erza called on Steel's power with him going into the clip and taking the sword shape again. Erza now had a visor-like mask over her eyes. She gained armor over her chest, shoulders, and arms with a yellow cross going through it. She was also had a blue skirt with black boots. For a weapon, she was given a double-edge sword. "Incredible!"
"Let's go!" Celestria said. They both jumped up to the rooftops with Erza feeling she was flying. As they made their way over the rooftops, Erza was amazed with all that she was seeing and feeling.
"This is incredible!" Erza said.
"Mission first!" Celestria said as she needed her to focus. With a little help, they might have a chance.
...
Salamondra
Salamondra did his best to fight off the Imps, but it wasn't looking good for him. They had him surrounded and there were too many of them for him to fight off. He eventually found himself surrounded and they dogpiled on him.
"Get the ring! Get the ring!" Imp said as one of them tried reaching for the ring. Luckily, he was saved when Celestria and Erza showed up. They tore apart all the etheriouized objects they could and were able to save Salamondra. When Salamondra looked up, he couldn't believe his eyes.
"Wow! Who's she?!" Salamondra said.
"Salamondra, meet..." Celestria started, but didn't know what to call her.
"Titania. Call me Titania."
"A pleasure." Salamondra said as he actually kissed her hand. "If you need help on being a superhero, I'm available."
"You're going to teach me how to get Celestria's phone number?" Erza teased.
"I have a feeling working with you is going to be interesting." Salamondra said.
...
Black Wizard
"A new hero...?" Black Wizard said as he could see what Imp saw. "This could be interesting, indeed. Imp, one more hero makes no difference. You still hold the numbers. Bring me all three miraculous."
...
The Heroes
The Imps were coming at the three of them. Having to fight them off, the three heroes did their best. Titania certainly have the moves.
"This is incredible!" Titania said as she couldn't ignore the pleasurable feeling she was having.
"We still don't know which one has the etherious." Salamondra said.
"Let's get some room to think." Celestria said. She went to the rooftops with the other following her. Celestria looked down and saw there were Imps everywhere. Maybe now that they have help, her powers can give her something they can actually use. "Open the Celestial Gate!" She called on her powers again and it ended up being a bicycle with the Libra sign on it.
"A bike? How is that going to help?" Titania questioned. Celestria looked around to see how she could do that. She spotted a pizza shop, an alleyway, Titania's sword, and Salamondra's staff.
"You're about to see how. Time to see what your powers can really do." Celestria said. "Here's the plan." She told them the plan. It might be a bit crazy, but it's their best chance. Celestria took the bike with her and went in one direction while they went in another direction. Celestria hurried and grabbed herself a pizza and started riding on the bike. "Who wants pizza?!" She called as she showed it to them.
"Pizza!" The Imps said with excitement. Celestria started peddling her bike with the Imps following as they all wanted some pizza. While she was trying to keep ahead of them, Salamondra and Titania got themselves ready as they stood over an alleyway.
"Are you sure this is going to work?" Titania asked.
"Celestria hasn't let us down yet. Time to use your powers." Salamondra said.
"I never used it before, but here goes nothing." Titania said as she got herself ready. "Requip!" She tossed her sword into the air and it twirled around with it changing forms. It turned into a club with spikes on it. "It worked!" She was excited as she caught it, but she also heard her hairclip beeping. "My hairclip is beeping. That means I'm about to change back, right?"
"Yeah, but I can know who you are." Salamondra said.
"Naughty dragon. We can't reveal our identities." Titania said as she knows Celestria wouldn't approve.
"Hey, Celestria's the know-it-all." Salamondra said. Once they saw Celestria heading for the alleyway, Salamondra extended his staff and Titania slid down and stopped just short of the end. As Celestria rode through the narrow passage, the Imps all ran after her. Titania held out her club and broke through all the Imps' hairpieces with them breaking. It went on like that until she got the one with the etherious flying out.
"There!" Titania called to alert Celestria and she saw it.
"No more evildoing for you, little etherious." Celestria activated her whip and twirled it around. "Time to de-evillize!" She tossed the whip and caught it. "Gotcha! Bye-bye, little guy." She said as she sent the etherious free. "Miraculous Starlight!" She was able to throw the bike in the air and called on the magic stars. All the messes were fixed with the original Imp returning to Wendy and all the others vanishing. Titania did rather well on her first mission with the three of them regrouping.
"Pound it!" All three of them pounded it together.
...
Black Wizard
"I may have lost, but I learned there are other miraculous out there." Black Wizard said as he wasn't taking this defeat so hard. "That means there's also a guardian. I will find that guardian and all the miraculous will be mine!"
...
The Heroes
"Salamondra, can I trust you to take the young girl back home?" Celestria asked.
"No problem." Salamondra said. As he took Wendy home, the two heroes took off in a different direction for them to change back. They found a different spot and the coast was clear.
"Armor Off." Titania said as she changed back to normal.
"You did great." Celestria said. She held out her hand for the miraculous, but Erza was a little hesitant.
"Are you sure I can't hold on to it?" Erza asked.
"You promised me." Celestria said.
"I know, but we can do this again. I can help in the future." Erza said. Celestria was afraid of this, but she can't do much about it now as he earrings were flashing.
"I'm about to change back, but I'm trusting you to make the right decision, Erza." Celestria said as she ducked inside a building.
"I think you are up for the job, Erza." Steel said. "You have all the qualities of a knight. You're brave, loyal, and you trustworthy. You're there when people need you." That was all Erza, but that meant she knew what she had to do. It was the right thing to do. Inside the building, Celestria changed back to Lucy and hoped Erza would make the right decision. She saw the door opening up and kept herself hidden.
"Celestria, are you there?" Erza asked.
"Yeah..." Lucy said trying to keep her cover.
"Here." Erza said as she held out the box with the miraculous inside. "I gave you my word I would give it back." She knew Erza would come around.
...
Mavis
"You made the right decision by trusting your friend." Mavis said as she had the miraculous returned to her and place back inside the box.
"I knew she could do it." Lucy said. "She was more capable than even I thought, and I knew she would be a great hero."
"However, we'll have to be ready. A time like this might come again." Mavis said. A new hero might be needed. Lucy will have to keep her eyes open for those who are worthy.
...
Erza
"Feeling better?" Erza asked. She was able to make it home and made sure Wendy got to bed.
"Yeah. I'm sorry for all the trouble I caused, Erza. Those things those kids from my school really got to me." Wendy said.
"You know you can tell me when something is bothering you." Erza said. "Wendy, kids that just go looking for trouble. They think it's fun, but behaved kids like you are the ones to get to reap the rewards. That's why you're going to be joining me and Lucy at the amusement park. We'll see if those kids still think you're boring when you go on the most exciting rides there."
"Thanks, Erza." Wendy said as she hugged her cousin and was starting to feel a lot better. Once Erza made sure Wendy was asleep, she saw Lucy came in.
"There you are!" Erza said as she was happy to see Lucy was safe with them hugging each other.
"Sorry. It was crazy out there." Lucy said.
"You don't have to tell me. You won't believe what happened." Erza said.
"What?" Lucy said as she was afraid she was going to spill secrets.
"There was actually a third hero that helped Celestria and Salamondra!" Erza said. "A female knight named Titania! I don't know who she was, but she was awesome."
"Really?!" Lucy said as she acted surprised, but she was proud that Erza is keeping her word. A new hero was formed today and Titania might be a valuable asset in the future.
