Everyone watched the guy fall to the ground. He was so scorched you almost couldn't tell he was human anymore. He would live though. Lucky enough the town guard showed up at that moment. They placed magic cuffs on the guy and took him away. One guard stayed saying that he needed statements on what happened. No one but Lucy could move or speak yet. They were all still too shocked at the power they just witnessed.
Natsu felt like Erza just hit him in the chest. He was speechless. Lucy, his Lucy, knew dragon slayer magic. Not only that, she had fused it with her own magic, and was able to control it like it was nothing. He was so shocked it took him a minute to realize that the guy Lucy fought was gone and there was a male heading toward Lucy.
"Umm...Miss...can you stop glowing?" The scared guard asked timidly.
"Oops. Sorry. Here let me try." Lucy's glow slowly started dulling out. The guard slowly walked over, still staying a few feet away, in case she started to glow again he could make a hasty retreat.
Lucy had never felt more alive. She never knew she could do that. One moment she was staring at the man, getting angry at him bad mouthing Ambrosia. The next moment she was furious about him wanting to take her from Natsu, and she heard the whisper. It was like her own voice, but more gravely. She's not sure how to describe it, but it told her it was time to show him their true power. Her new found Celestial Fire Dragon power. Next thing she new she was covered in fire that felt like Natsu had tried to burn her again, and she was hitting the man with it. She told the man what she knew, and made sure to include what Ambrosia had told her. Than she saw Natsu stalking toward her. There was no other way to describe the way he was walking. She quickly followed his line of sight to the guard talking to her.
"Sir, you may want to get going." She nodded toward Natsu. The guard took one look and took of running for town. He had all the information he needed anyway. Lucy just laughed. She felt so carefree at the moment. Than she remembered her spirits and Ambrosia.
Before Natsu could make it to Lucy, she turned on her heel and walked in the house. What the hell! Did she honestly believe that she could do all that and say what she said, than just ignore him?! He watched as Taurus, Sagitarius, and Capricorn left as Lucy passed them, as well as Lucy return to her normal clothes. He followed her and Loke into the house, not saying a word to the lion spirit right now. There was only one person he planned to talk to.
Loke seemed to understand this and gestured for Natsu to follow him further down the hall from the door Lucy entered into. As soon as he walked in he knew it was Lucy's room she was staying in. Her scent was all over it. He instantly felt contrite. He had forgot that Lucy was on a job still, and that the client was bed ridden. Lucy wasn't running from him, she was simply letting the Lady know that the danger was dealt with and not to worry. She could take all the time she needed, he would wait right here for her. When she was done though, she better be prepared for the long talk he planned to have with her about what was just said and done. With that thought in mind, he laid down on the bed to await his mate's return.
(At Fairy Tail)
A few hours after the lacrima call with the hot head, Gajeel could feel the sensation of the new mate. All dragon slayers would be able to. It was basically a here's your new family member kind of thing. The guild hall was going to be hell for a little while when they came back. FRom his understanding they would be there for a week for Bunny Girl's mission which means for the following three weeks that they were home, he planned not to be. He did not want to tempt that fight. Which reminded him, for Levy's sake he may want to warn her friends.
"When is Flame Brain bringing Lucy back?" Gray commented in general at the guild. "He needs to pay for running her off in the first place." That wouldn't be smart. Gajeel chuckled. Although he was a bit curious about how Bunny Girl had faired. Maybe he would at least help welcome them home, than he's take his Levy and high tail it out of here. Wait his Levy! She wasn't his! What the hell!
"I don't suggest picking a fight with him for at least a few weeks after they get home, Ice Cube." Gajeel spouted loud enough to get everyone's attention.
"Oh yeah? Why not? You know he deserves to have some sense knocked into him." Gray called back.
"True enough, but let's just say if this week entails what I think it does, than Bunny Girl maybe a bit more overprotective than any of you are going to want to see. Just trust me, you don't want to insult either of them for a while." Gajeel chuckled, especially when he saw Levy's eyes light up. He knew she had researched the topic recently, with Natsu's confession to her and all. So she understood his warning.
"Listen to him guys. He's right, you could get hurt if you don't." Levy tried to help. She secretly hoped that one day, she would be in Lucy's place with Gajeel. For now though she'd just settle for slowly capturing his heart.
(With Lucy)
"Hello Princess!" Virgo greeted her as she walked into the room. She had watched Loke lead Natsu to her room, which told her it was going to be a long night.
"Thank you Virgo for your help. You are free to go home, I've got it from here." Lucy responded before turning to Ambrosia. "Your husband is in the hands of the town authority. Whenever he comes to, I doubt he like his new look." Lucy told her around a chuckle. Ambrosia smiled before visibly relaxing. Lucy understood the fear of having friends fight for you and not being able to do anything. She remember back to the Phantom Lord incident, and how she hated feeling so useless.
"How are you feeling? Do you need your doctor at all?" Lucy wanted to be sure her activity of attempting to get up and fight hadn't opened a stitch or anything.
"No, I'm alright. A little tired now that the danger has passed. Thank you Lucy. I don't know what I would've done without you here. If there is anything I can do to repay you, please let me know." Ambrosia knew the girl had fought hard for her. Contrary to the fact that she was stuck in here, she not only could hear some of the battle, she also got a small play by play from the pink haired spirit that was left behind to protect her. She really did owe Lucy, and planned to give her anything in her power to repay her.
"No need to worry about that, especially right now. Get some sleep Ambrosia. We can talk more in the morning. Call for me if you need anything." Lucy stated before turning and heading to her room to face her dragon.
As soon as she walked in, she felt at ease. His presence alone seemed to comfort her. She wasn't to sure she liked that right now. She looked around, but didn't see him. Than she walked to sit on the bed to take her boots off, and there was her pink haired dragon sound asleep. She decided it was in her best interest not to wake him just yet. She took off her boots, grabbed some pajamas from her bag, and headed for the bath. A nice long soak in the luxurious tub she had, sounded like just what she needed.
She sat there in the tub relaxing until her fingers were pruning and her muscles were almost too relaxed to get out of the tub. So before she couldn't get out, she got out, drained the tub, dried off, and got dressed. She was running a brush through her hair as she walked back into the bedroom. She smiled down at the still sleeping dragon slayer. With fully brushed hair, she climbed into the bed next to the dragon slayer and soon found her own sleep. Their talk could wait till morning.
