A/N Just a quick one, when you first meet Kinana in this story, she has not joined Fairy Tail yet.
"Thank you very much sir, you have my deepest gratitude. Goodness knows what could have happened if you hadn't stepped in and saved the day. Possible death. You truly are amazing."
Lucy scowled at the man standing before her and Laxus, he was the person who had issued the request to Fairy Tail to get rid of a minute pest problem, it was specifically suited for Laxus's magical abilities as the form said that the rats were immune to every type of magical damage except electric/lightning.
They could not be killed any other way. She very much doubted that it was simply a coincidence, he probably planned this for months. When Lucy and Laxus had gone under his estate into the sewer system to see the magical rats, she immediately smelled bullshit. They were regular rats, nothing special.
He was practically getting a boner at being so close to Laxus. The stupid chubby little man hadn't once acknowledged Lucy's existence, she might as well not be there.
She wanted to kiss Laxus just to piss him off. 'Hey.' Lucy thought to herself, a huge smirk appearing on her face as she glanced up at the bored looking dragon slayer 'That would be hilarious.'
"Hey Laxus?" Lucy said in a small voice to get his attention, he looked down at Lucy to make sure she were okay and his eyes widened in shock when she jumped up, wrapped her arms around his neck and planted a wet kiss on his lips.
A loud wheezing sound came from the man in front of the lip locked pair, feeling like she had made her point she detached herself from a mortified Laxus and slapped his muscular butt. "See you later big boy."
She switched her eyes to the very faint looking gentleman before her, she placed a sickly sweet smile on her face and tilted her head forward, bowing it for him.
"Thank you for issuing this mission Sir, make sure to pay my hubby well, he worked so hard to get rid of those giant super rats."
Strutting out of the office she tried to hold in the laugh that was trying to tumble out of her mouth. Someone people were just too easy to piss off. She would have to explain to Laxus the next time she saw him that she didn't kiss him to try and woo him, not at all. 'Now, time to go play with my Cobra.'
She took a right turn out of the building, heading towards her house. She'd cook herself and Erik some food and maybe things might get a bit fun later on. Whatever happens, happens. Lucy knew that people always thought that their first time should be special, a truly magical moment, she didn't understand for the life of her why.
If you want to have sex with someone, do it. The only reason she had never done it was she simply wasn't attracted to anyone enough. Lucy never imagined that this special connection she had with Erik would materialize considering the circumstances on how they met.
"We're regrouping at Hargeon, have a think about coming back. Now that Brain isn't with us, we could use having you join up. You two always did butt heads didn't you"
Lucy stopped dead in her tracks, that voice. It was very similar to someone who she hoped she'd never have the pleasure of meeting again. Angel. But who was she talking to?
Pulling up her skirt Lucy reached for her keys that were strapped around her upper thigh, she found that having them hidden from enemy eyes meant they were safer and it was much more secure than being loosely held around her waist.
She grasped one of her keys and silently summoned Gemini. They popped out of their gate, cheering at their summon but soon quietened down when Lucy started flapping her arms around like a maniac, trying to quieten them.
"Sorry Master, we just got so excited, it's been a very long time since we have been brought out. How can we help?"
The twins said in unison, the little blue spirits floated around excitedly. Lucy knelt down onto her knees and crawled along the edge of the building. Pointing around the side of the wall Lucy motioned for the spirits to follow.
"Hey guys, sorry for not summoning you for a while, it's just you always come out as me in a towel and I wanted to save myself the embarrassment and keep my dignity for a while longer."
At the mention of that the two transformed into Lucy clad only in a towel and stretched, letting any passerbyers see her exposed ass cheeks.
Squeaking in shock she pulled the towel over the fake hers ass cheeks but only succeeded in pulling the towel completely off, exposing the double of hers nude body for the whole world to see.
Gemini Lucy covered their body with their arms "It's a bit chilly."
Lucy practically had steam coming from her ears, she was that angry, hearing footsteps approaching her and her body double she jumped to her feet and pressed her clothed body against her spirit's naked copy of hers.
Circling her arms around their waist she covered their butt and pressed the spirit against the wall, feeling her breasts squashed against, well her breasts, was very weird.
"That is it, this is why you don't get summoned, look at what's happened, now transform into a random person you've seen and walk around the corner and-"
"Lucy." Someone said hesitantly, almost sounding unsure.
The blonde leant her head back to see who had said her name, she saw slicked back hair and piercings. "Oh, hey Gajeel, you're looking very suave today. Big date with Levy huh? Well don't let me keep you. Good seeing you bro."
She arched her head back to face Gemini who had a very childlike grin on their face. They started to try to wriggle out of her hold, Lucy tried her best to press against them harder but they popped out of her grasp and ran down the street, naked as the day she was born, showing everyone her birthday suit.
She could see her own butt cheeks shaking as they ran down the path, towards the center of town.
Gajeel stared at the retreating form running away from them in incredulity. Lucy swiftly swung their key through the air and watched as they disappeared in a shimmer of light as she forcibly closed their gate.
Whoever was around that corner was long gone thanks to their shenanigans. Gemini could stay in the celestial realm with Loke for a while. They were both grounded as far as she was concerned. If they didn't act like children she wouldn't have to treat them like such.
"What the hell, why did I just see your ugly ass running away like a madman? Being your friend is so weird bunny."
Lucy pressed her head against the side of the building she was previously pressing herself and Gemini against and sighed "I know Gaj." She mumbled.
"It's great to see that your girlfriend is putting my spirit to good use." Angel said sarcastically as she looked back at Lucy, who was practically wrestling with someone who looked almost identical to her. "Your spirit?"
Cobra said looking at Angel as he pulled her away from his girlfriend. This woman was a piece of work. Smelling that Gajeel was nearby he made the decision to leave Lucy to him and to take Angel far away from them.
The silver haired mage rolled her eyes "That's my, well was my celestial spirit, Gemini, also known as the twins. They can replicate whoever they have touched. For some reason, little blondie back there has told them to copy her, clad in a towel. How strange. Do you like your woman to act like they don't have a shred of dignity? I mean even normally she's dressed like she should be stood on a street corner in the middle of the night working by the hour, honestly-"
A purple clawed hand wrapped around Angel's neck and lifted her off the ground, Cobra started at his old guild member with venom in his eyes "Don't talk about her, just don't talk at all." He pressed harder on her windpipe to make his point clear.
"Just fuck off, I'm not interested in the Oracion Seis or what you have planned. Leave me well out of it."
Smiling sadistically at the poison dragon slayer, Angel placed her hand over Cobra's clawed one and pressed against it, causing more pressure on her tender neck then managed to choke out three words "We have Cubellios."
'Cubellios?'
He retracted his hand and let the girl fall to the ground in a messy heap. She coughed loudly, desperately trying to suck in oxygen at the same time. Cobra growled in frustration "Where is she? Why do you have her? Answer me you stupid bitch." He kicked her side to try and force her to talk but only succeeded in causing a groan of pain to leave her. It made him smile.
"Now Cobra that's enough, we don't fight amongst each other, that's what sets us apart from other dark guilds. Now be a good boy and come along with us."
Midnight came out from an alleyway behind them. Looking around he saw Racer next to him as well. 'I'm outnumbered.' He thought as he watched Angel slowly get to her feet.
Her neck now had a thick purple bruise around it with small burns on the edge of it from his poison that secreted out of his dragon scaled hands, she walked over to Midnight's side and smiled.
"Just come with us Cobra, don't you want to see your precious snake again?"
Letting out a groan of frustration he moved towards them, glaring at Midnight with disgust evident on his face "Just take me to her, I'm leaving after that, you understand? I don't want to be a part of your sick little games anymore Midnight. You're just like your father, fucked the hell up."
Midnight's eyes met Cobra's good eye and twinkled with mischief, that only meant that he was already in one of his games and by the looks of it, Cobra had just lost. "Yes, I suppose I am just like him."
They had a safe house located in Hargeon that Midnight had somehow arranged whilst he was still in prison. How they had found Cubellios was beyond him, he had lost hope that he would ever find his beloved snake ever again. He hadn't looked as hard as he probably could have, Cobra would admit that.
He had been preoccupied with Lucy and being in a regular guild was so great that he had forgotten about Cub. She was taken away from him when he had been taken to prison. To see her again would make his life complete.
Cobra thought about the meeting of her and Lucy and smiled internally. She would love Cubellios, he just knew it. He just hoped Cub would like Lucy, she was never quick to warm up to strangers, always shoot venom at this or shoot venom at that.
She would get a smacked tail if she tried to shoot venom at his Lucy.
The carriage they were awkwardly sat in came to a halt and a knock on the door indicated they had arrived at their destination. Practically leaping through the door of the wagon he stood outside the house.
He hoped this wasn't just a trick to get him to follow them, he would look very stupid if it was. They all knew how much he loved that snake, he'd do anything for her.
"She's just inside Cobra, I think you'll be pleasantly surprised." Angel said as she opened the door for him to enter. The room was pitch black, turning on the light switch he let out a bitter laugh at what was there "That's not Cubellios, who the hell is that?" He said as he pointed at the purple haired girl who was tied up on the floor, covered head to toe in scratches and muck.
"That is Cubellios in her natural form. She goes by Kinana now though. Thought you'd be happy to be reunited Cobra, don't be mean to the poor girl. She's been saying your name for days now, waiting for you to come save her."
Midnight walked in front of him as he continued speaking "Isn't she a beauty? She looks absolutely ravishing." He grabbed a handful of her short hair and yanked her head up so Cobra could fully see her face.
The girl started to regain consciousness, her eyes opened and focused on Cobra, a beaming smile appeared on her bruised face "Erik you came, I knew you would save me."
'No fucking way.'
"It's been two frickin' days where the hell is he. He doesn't answer his lacrima, he never shows up for dinner, would he have left me? No, we were doing so good. I'm such an idiot."
Lucy was shouting and squawking as she cycled viciously on an exercise bike in the gym, Laxus and Gajeel were standing on the other side of the gym, staying out of the way of the raging blonde, afraid of getting her anger taken out on them.
"So Lax, Lucy kissed you huh." Gajeel said, trying to break the awkward silence that had settled over them as they watched the celestial mage have an intense argument with herself.
The lightening mage's face turned a deep shade of crimson at the mention of his adoptive sister kissing him.
"Well I-"
"It was all for show, get over yourself big guy." Lucy interjected "That man who was there so had the hots for you and was totally ignoring me. Unacceptable I say, so I kissed you to make him jealous. End of."
Gajeel burst out laughing, holding his head at her reasoning "I thought you were with Cobra though? Bunny don't cheat on the poor guy."
"Ahem" someone said, clearing their throat to get the three mages attention "Sorry to interrupt."
Lucy glared at the person daring to enter the gym, she thought she had made it perfectly clear that she had it booked for the morning but what she saw made her legs come to a halt on the bike and her mouth to fall open.
Cobra was standing in the entrance, his eye narrowed at Laxus, he obviously heard that she had kissed him.
'So not like that Erik.'
Lucy thought so he could hopefully hear her and not be mad.
"Where the hell have you been Erik? Do you know how worried I've been? I swear to Mavis you-"
"Erik, what's going on?" A small feminine voice came from behind the poison slayer. To be precise, a woman's voice. Following the sound, Lucy noticed that there was a small hand clasping Cobra's, their fingers entwined.
'Oh hell no, you are fucking kidding me, he finds a new girl and brings her here to meet me? Are you serious.'
Lucy knew there was probably a logical explanation for all of this but she didn't want to listen to her head right now, her heart was hurting.
"Guys, this is Kinana." He pulled the woman out from behind him and introduced her to Gajeel, Laxus and Lucy. The two men coughed awkwardly, anxiously awaiting a Lucy breakdown but she wasn't going to give them what they expected wanted.
Feeling tears well up in her eyes she calmly hopped off the bike and shuffled out of the gym as fast as she could on her wobbly legs. Shouldering past him she mumbled into his ear when she left.
"See you later Cobra."
