...And eleven days behind. Wow.

Title: Sacrifice
Pairing: Midnight x Lucy
Requester: anonymous
Prompt: Blood and Hope
Blood would have to be spilled for his plan to work. Midnight knew that. He knew the details better than anyone save Cobra. A life would have to be sacrificed. A celestial mage's life.
He didn't divulge that part to Angel. Midnight wouldn't do that to her, even though she may have even welcomed it. Becoming one with the endless stream of time wasn't too far off of her dream of vanishing into the sky. Disappearing without dying.
No - the Oracion Seis would acquire their new world, the realization of their hopes and dreams together, or not at all. That was the way it had to be. They would always stick together - promise they had made so long ago, huddled and frightened in the bowels of the Tower.
There wasn't any question as to who would take on the role they needed for their plan.
It almost a pity, though. In performing his due diligence, Midnight had almost come to… like the girl. They weren't too different in the end - their fathers being who and what they were. Midnight could almost sympathize.
The true difference between them though… was that the girl had found freedom, whereas the Oracion Seis were still just as chained as before.
It was time she pay that forward.
Lucy Heartfilia would become the pillar of their new life, her lifeblood the foundation of their hopes.
Too bad they wouldn't remember her after.
