Lucy's Pov.

As I entered the temple, I felt a sense of excitement as the cool air rushed all around me as I continued walking further into the temple. Sure it was dark, but there were certain areas that were lit up with a dim flame. While walking I could sense something powerful radiating within the temple itself. I stopped in front of a mural of what appears to be two dragons. One dragon sitting on a throne with a golden circle surrounding the dragon.

"Clearly, that's a royal dragon," I muttered and looked at the second dragon. This dragon was "flying" in the stars. However, I thought of it as someone trapped within the stars but it could mean that the dragon was flying. I grazed my hand over the dragon flying in the stars and thought of Elara.

"Is this Elara?" I whispered softly. The mural slowly illuminated a soft golden light. I stepped back as the glow around the dragon began to glow brighter. I covered my eyes as a huge burst of golden light shot straight down into the temple. I felt my body being pulled into the light. I accidentally dropped my bag and unfortunately my zodiac keys as well.

"Wait! I'm not ready to die!" I screamed as I slowly started to lose my grip on the floor. My body lunged straight into the light. I shrieked before blacking out.

"Lucy."

Someone was calling me...

"Lucy."

Just ten more minutes...

"LUCY!"

My eyes shot open and I quickly looked around at my surrounding. I was still in the beam of light but I was floating, apparently. I looked down and gulped loudly.

"OH MY GAWD IM GONNA DIE!" I flailed my arms in different angles.

"You aren't dying." A voice suddenly spoke out. It was a very elegant voice that would come from either a princess or a queen. I looked up to see a light that was shining dimly. I squinted my eyes before looking back in front of me to see clouds flying past me.

"IM GOING TO HEAVEN NOOOOOOOO!" I yelled and started producing those well-known anime tears.

"NO, YOU'RE NOT! Geez, child will you ever allow me to explain?" the same voice replied once again.

"Who's there!" I yelled back out.

"My name is Elara, Lucy." the voice replied back.

"ELARA!?" I shrieked.

"Do you always yell out your responses child?" Elara asked.

"No...it's just that I'm shocked and a tad bit scared," I replied with truth in my voice.

"Relax. I won't do anything to harm you, besides, I've been waiting for you." I suddenly felt warm as if something was hugging me. I closed my eyes and smiled giving myself into this sudden warmth. As I opened my eyes, I found myself floating in literal space I quickly covered my nose and mouth with both of my hands. A laugh filled the void of emptiness and slowly a figure slowly moved towards me. It was Elara! She circled around me before flying right in front of me. She looked even more beautiful in real life than the description the book gave. I stared at the dragon in awe, still covering my nose and mouth. Elara leaned her head near mine and gently nudged my hands off of my face.

"You can breath regularly here. I've been waiting for you, my child." Elara placed a smile that made her look even more radiant. I nodded before snapping my thoughts in the area we were in at the moment.

"Wait how come we're in space? Why can I breathe here? Why are you calling me your child? OH GOD, my head." I placed my hands on top of my head and squealed a bit.

"Hahaha my child, you are very funny. Fear not for all of your questions, and some of the mines will be answered in the future. For now, let us head back." I looked at Elara before a blinding light was cast in between the both of us.

"NOT AGAIN!"
