Hey, guys, I'm back from the rock that I was hiding under, sorry for the lack of updates; well, life happened, then some more life happened, and well, you know more stuff you probably don't care about, anyway I'm not sure when I'll start updating as I use too so, I may end up being one chapter per week if I can manage that
anyway, news that you probably care about the Fairy tails final season. I can't wait; hopefully, it's just as good as the manga was; hopefully, I end up getting that far with this story, so yeah.
Lucy stepped back in shock "y-you had a contract," she said, still unable to believe what she had heard, and you killed her"
Loke nodded his head to the girl "celestial that kills their wizards are forever banished from the celestial world," Loke informed her. "So I'm just going to die," Loke said, looking away from Lucy, "right here, near her grave."
Flashback
At the Guildhall that belonged to blue Peaguses, a girl with green har entered the building; her name was Karen, and a group of men immediately swarmed her; she gave off a laugh as she backed up "sorry boss, but I have an appointment at the salon later today.
Other female members started to get angry as they watched the girl with ill eyes "there she goes again," someone said, "tramp."
Master Bob, who was cleaning a cup, smiled, "you have quite the following, don't you, Karen."
King of the stars
Karen smiled. "I don't have time for this" Karen pulled out a key "{open gate of the ram" Areis}" a small puff and Aries appeared she had two horns that curled up and a fluffy shirt that went down to her thighs "yes ma'am," she said in a quiet voice
all the guys of the guild then swarmed her as Karen slipped away "w-what, going on," Aries asked as Karen sat down
"keep them busy for me, my dear," Karen told her as Aries nodded. Karen then turned to the bar and ordered a drink as Master Bob approached her "now Karen, I don't think you should be doing that," he told her.
"what," Karen asked, confused
"I heard about how you've been treating poor Aries," Bob said as an image of Karen using Aries as a shield appeared in his mind "you need to treat her with more respect."
"pfft," Karen said as she waved off her master, "it's my spirit. I can do what I want with it," she said, slightly annoyed with her Master.
"I'm serious, Karen," Master Bob said in a less friendly tone "you need to have more respect, or they will turn on you," Master Bob told her with a sour look on his face. Karen back u in fear as a look of disgust grew on her face.
Later Karen was in her room with Aries, who was backing away in fear "you went and tattled to master bob behind my back," Karen asked angrily, "didn't you" she said as she hit Aries.
"I didn't, ma'am," Aries cried as she held her face from the injury, "honest."
"You made the Master angry with me," Karen said as she walked towards the spirit, "so know I'm angry with you.
"I didn't tell him," Aries cried.
"You still claiming innocence," Karen said as she pulled out a pair of chains.
"What are those" Aries asked
"I'm going to lock you here in the human world for seven days," Aries scouted back in shock.
"Your magic won't last," Aries pleaded.
"Oh, I'm a lot stronger than you think," Karen said as she licked her lips "you, on the other hand," Karen grew an evil smile as she approached the spirit. "I've always wondered what would happen if you were stuck in the human world for seven days."
"Please ma' ma don't" before Aries finished, she suddenly dispersed as Karen let out a faint laugh "you can't run, Aries, I'll just summon you back" before she could move, a hand grabbed her; she looked back to see Loke who at this time was in a suit and tie and lacked his glasses.
"she didn't run," Loke told her. "I swapped places with her; you've abused Aries long enough.
End Flashback
"I tried to stop her," Loke said as he faced Lucy, "but I couldn't do much," Loke admitted, "seeing as we were still contracted to her."
Resume Flashback
"How dare you," Karen shouted, "how did you open your own gate."
"I'm spirit made for battle," Loke told her, "your abuse doesn't affect me like it does my fellow spirits," Loke told her. Karen clenched her teeth in anger as Loke continued, "I'm warning you don't ever lay a finger on Aries again."
"How dare you" Karen spat
"there's something I've meant to ask you, Karen," Loke said. "I demand that you release Aries and me from our contracts."
"You demand," Karen Karen asked.
"the way you've been acting and treating us is deplorable; in fact, many spirits in our world are afraid of their keyes falling into your hands."
"that's not true," Karen said as she pulled out Loke's key "closed gate of the lion," she shouted. However, Loke didn't disappear "what" she got angry and tried again, "go back, Leo."
"You heard me," Loke told her, "not backing down, realize me and are from our contracts," Loke said "you can't summon another spirit while I'm here; your far too weak, and I refuse to be at your beck and call," Loke told her "good luck finding work."
Karen laughed, "you seem to forget that I have limits, my magic power will go away in ten days, and you'll be forced back into the celestial world."
"true," Leo told her, "but it won't affect me," Loke told her, "because I used my own power to get here" Karen back up in shock as Loke started to leave. "I'm prepared to stay as long as I need o; I'll be in ruins west of town when you're ready to release us."
[##Yami yo, Tsudoe! Ost##]
A day later, Karen had found Loke at the ruins "you won't last much longer, Leo," Karen told her.
"I'm the lion and leader of the zodiac," Loke informed. "I can do things other spirits can't."
"You'd think I'd really let two zodiac keyes go," Karen told him. "I wouldn't be able to take the high-paying jobs."
"get out," Loke told her, "don't come back until your ready to release Aries and me from your contracts."
"Leo"
A month later, Karen had appeared again, begging Leo to go back "please, Leo, I haven't been able to work in a month," Karen pleaded. "I need money to survive," Karen pleaded as Loke ignored her, "please, I'm sorry; if you go back, I won't abuse Aries ever again."
"you're sorry," Loke asked, "if you truly felt remorse, you'd release our contracts."
Karen growled at this as she began to attack Loke "why won't you just die already, then I can summon Aries, I'll force her to work like a dog just to spite you," Karen shouted as she kicked Loke into the ground
2 months later, Loke stood outside of the ruined church with a smile on his face "this isn't so bad," he said to himself, "at least know the pains gone" he closed his hand to a fist "well, even I have limits though" Loke looked around "I guess I can forgive Karen and if she counties I'll just threaten to leave again" he looked back expecting to Karen coming up the hill only to see Master Bob coming instead a look of horror grew n his face
Later the pair had gone into the temple master. Bob revealed that Karen had taken a job and didn't come back as Loke punched a statue "how could she" Loke shouted, "she knows she can't summon another spirit, not as long as I'm here."
"It is possible," Master Bob said," and I guess poor Karen thought she could do it."
"I just," Loke said as he broke down. "I just wanted her to see she was wrong," Loke said as tears ran down his face "we're more than just magic tools; we have emotion, and her abuse hurt us," Loke whined, "but I-I didn't want her to die," Loke said "Karen!"
End Flashback
"It was my fault Karen died," Loke said, "and once someone dies, they're gone forever," Loke smiled. "I've lived with the guilt ever since, and the only way to make things right is if I die too"
"NO, that," Lucy started as Loke then fell back in pain. "Loke."
"I guess it's my time." Loke muttered as he started to disappear."
"what do you mean," Lucy asked
"time for me to disappear," Loke told her "when I killed Karen, I broke a fundamental law of the celestial world," Loke explained, "not a day goes by that I don't think about what I did," Loke said. "I try to stay distracted, but it was as if she was haunting me," Loke smiled as Lucy got closer, "and know I can finally die here next to her grave."
"No," Lucy said, "there has to be a way for me to save you," Lucy said, "it's not fair."
Loke smiled " tell everyone I said bye," Loke said, "ever since I got trapped here, they've been as close to me as my fellow spirits" Loke then smiled, "and you've taught me that spirits can have a deep bond with there wizards."
[##Fairy tail main theme slow ##]
"No," Lucy said. "I can't let this happen," Lucy said "there has to be away," Lucy said, tears coming from her eyes.
"Lucy," Loke muttered as Lucy grabbed him "{open gate of the lion: send Leo back"} Lucy shouted.
"Lucy, it's okay," Loke said
"No, it's not," Lucy shouted back. "I can't just sit here and watch my friend die," Lucy told him "{open gate of the lion}" Lucy shouted as yellow energy surrounded her.
"Lucy, stop," Loke pleaded, "you're going to use all your power."
"I won't," Lucy shouted as she continued trying to open Loke's gate "what's the point of having magic power if you can't use t to save the ones you love
"Lucy, if you don't stop, you'll assimilate with me," Loke told her, trying to get her to stop "don't make me live with the guilt of killing you too."
"it wasn't your fault," Lucy shouted "whoever decreed that it was your fault needs to know that they're wrong," Lucy shouted
soon after everything stopped, a shockwave was sent, sending Lucy and Loke back, knocking Loke's glasses off as the two landed on the ground above them; the stars began to rotate as the waterfall that was surrounding them shot upwards, shocking the pair
"what's going on," Lucy asked as Loke looked on, shocked
"impossible," Loke said as a giant appeared from the smoke, a crown atop his head with two horns sticking out and a cape flowing through the wind, "the celestial spirit king."
[##Akuma Deliora Ost##]
" he's the king of the spirit world," Lucy asked, shocked.
"Hello, my old friend," he spoke "as you well know, both key holer and spirit must obey the celestial law, and any circumstance forbids the death of a keyholder," he told Loke, "although not by your hand, you were still responsible for your keyholders death, Leo the lion" the spirit king stated, "therefore, you have been n=banished from the spirit world for eternity."
"Hold on," Lucy shouted, a sour look growing on her face, "that doesn't seem fair."
"Lucy," Loke said, "stop."
"Old friend, a human girl," the spirit King said, " I have made my decision; Loke has broken the celestial law."
"that's crazy' Loke thought himself 'did really come out here cause she shouted something about him being wrong; why would he care."
"Loke has been suffering in the human world for three long years," Lucy responded "he didn't kill Karen," Lucy informed the Spirit King, but he did stand up to her; someone had to protect Aries."
the spirit king let out a sigh. "I must admit seeing my old friend in such a state breaks my heart," he admitted, "but that doesn't change what was done."
"would you open your eyes stash face" Lucy shouted.
"stash face," the king asked in shock.
"Lucy"
[## Kizuna Ost##]
"an old friend is still a friend, right" Lucy shouted as her body began to glow. "Karen died cause she took a job that she couldn't handle," Lucy shouted, "you have to change your verdict."
"Lucy, it doesn't matter if the verdict changed," Loke told her. "I'm not looking for forgiveness; I want to disappear, so I'm finally free from this guilt."
"and what will that do" Lucy shouted, "you dying isn't going to bring Karen back; it'll only create more sadness," Lucy shouted as all of her spirits appeared from the light shocking both Loke and the spirit king
"she summoned all her spirits at once; not even Karen could do that," Loe said, amazed
"if you die, Loke," Lucy said, "you'll be leaving all your friends, me Aries" Loke looked as all the spirits were facing him as the power faded and the spirits despaired. Lucy fell on the ground, her emblem gone
"Lucy," Loke cried
as Lucy fell, tried to stand up and catch her breath, she turned back "all of my friends who appeared just know," Lucy said, "they feel the same," Lucy said
"Lucy, stop," Loke pleaded again, "you'll end up like Karen, don't kill yourself for me
The spirits let out a gruff, " hearing you speak so highly of my old friend has me thinking that it's the actions of Leo, but the law itself that should be called into question," the spirit King spoke. "Leo was forced to commit his crime to protect his friend, and the human girl is willing to protect Loe," letting a small smile form on his face. "I am so moved by your bonds of loyalty that I've decided that just this once I'll make an exception," he said. "Leo, the lion, you are hereby granted return passage into the celestial world."
[##Ifuudoudou - Rock Ver. Ost##]
"Your awesome thanks, stash face," Lucy said, giving a wink and thumbs up, causing the spirit king to laugh as he started to disappear.
"You have been exonerated," the spirit king spoke before leaving, " be grateful to the guidance of the stars."
"I have to make it up to her," Loke said, crying, "please, sir."
"very well," the spirit king said, "if you want to make it up, I hereby order you live in the service of your friend, the human girl" the spirit King said, "you are lucky to have such a loyal friend, I suggest you protect her with your life" as he disappeared the water and Loke Glasses hit the ground.
"You heard him," Lucy told him as Loke saw a ghost of Karen, only she was smiling at him before she vanished. Loke stood up, smiling as he looked at Lucy.
"Lucy, thanks," Loke said as he grabbed her hand before disappearing, leaving his key in her hand.
"Your welcome," Lucy said with tears forming in her eyes.
"You're a spirit," Natsu asked in shock; it was the next day, and Loke had revealed everything "no wonder it felt weird when we switched bodies," Natsu said as he stared Loe down.
"I guess so," Loke said
"gotta say that's surprising," Gray said
"how come your not a cow or monkey," Natsu asked, "you're just a dude."
"Virgo has a human form two, you know, not like we're all animals."
"You say that, but I've seen her turn into a gorilla," Natsu told him.
"she's not really a gorilla."
"Loke is actually a lion spirit," Lucy informed them.
"wow," Happy called out, "a lion is just like a grown-up cat, right," Happy asked, to which Loke nodded. Happy then jumped on his shoulder, claiming he was the coolest spirit ever."
"This is great, and all," Erza said, "but shouldn't you be resting in the celestial world" as the group stopped in front of the pub.
"yeah, but I'm feeling a lot better today," Loke told her, "besides, I couldn't wait to see Lucy again," Loke said, causing the girl to blush.
"well, I'm just glad your okay," Lucy said
"Yeah," Natsu said as he moved the sheet where the fairy pub was being reconstructed.
"Surprise," a group of people shouted as Mavis leaped in front of the group with four tickets, Loke walking next to her.
"what's this" Lucy asked
"Well," Mira began, "in the past month, Y'all have done so much, so we thought it was time you guys got a break," Mira said
"It was my idea actually," Loke said "it's a way of saying thank you for all you did" Loke gave off a smile, "their tickets to this famous resort."
"wow," Lucy said, shocked.
"I've never been to one of those before," Gray said
"you didn't have to," Natsu said, smiling.
"of course we did," Mavis corrected him "now you kids go and have some fun," Mavis said, "it's time for a vacation; that's an order."
Natsu let out a small chuckle as Lucy smiled along with him. Lucy turned to Loke, who was also smiling at him.
"thank you, Lucy," Loke said, " I know I'm always going to have to live with what happened, but now I can start moving forward," Loke said. "I'll always be there for you to protect you."
"I'm not just your wizard Loke," Lucy told him. "I'm your friend, too," she said. Luke chuckled. "I guys, you are," he said before disappearing again.
"You ready," Erza said, walking up to her.
"Yeah," Lucy said, "you know, if that were to happen to me," Lucy said, looking at the sky, " I'd probably be just as torn up about it, but I wouldn't let it change me, cause I know you guys will always be there for me," Lucy said smiling.
"Yeah, now come on," Natsu shouted.
"yeah," Happy agreed.
"I can't wait to get to the beach and soak up some rays," Gray said
"yes," Erza said, "what an unexpected treat this is, now let's have some fun."
'Looking back on it,' Lucy said. 'I remember how happy Erza was; she wouldn't stop smiling. However, little did I know, that smile would soon vanish.'
[## Jellal theme##]
Miles away, Siegrain and Ultear stood looking out of a window on Era "it's almost time, Master Siegrain," she said, "your goal will be fulfilled."
Siegrain chuckled "then looks like it's time then," Siegrain said
"Let us begin."
