Hey fairy tail fans, and welcome back to a fairy tail re-told, so today we have the chapter full effort hospitality, and I know what you all are thinking, and no, I'm not doing the zodiac spirits arc why cause I well the long and short of it is I hate it out of every filler arc I've watched in anime this one is by far the worse I know there are some people out there who probably liked this arc, but it's just so pointless, but I did like this episode cause let's be honest we hardly see most of the celestial spirits, so I wanted to keep it in any way as always tell me what you think and let's get started
Last time on a fairy tail re-told
Lucy: man, our spirits are great
Yukino: yes, they are
Lucy: but I think it's time we returned that favor. You ready
Yukino: yes, of course
Lucy and Yukino came to the top of a place called Starr hill. On its top lay the ruins of an old church. Lucy stretched her arms as Yukino stopped; she looked around "looks like we finally made it," Yukino said, "but I wonder why they call this place star hill," she asked, looking around.
"Just wait till nighttime," Lucy told her, "then you'll see." behind them, Natsu, Happy Sting, and Lector had also arrived at the sight.
"looks like we made it" Natsu laughed as Happy fell over
"my aching paws," Happy groaned, "something told me I should have flown over, but I need to lose some weight," Happy groaned
"you're worried about your weight," Natsu asked
"Aye," Happy said, "the other day, Carla told me that my belly was starting to get around, so I figured I should work out more."
"haven't you been training with Lily," Natsu said, "and hasn't it always looked like that"
"naw, I think it's gotten a little bigger since the last time I saw him," Lector said
"Not cool, guys," Happy screamed.
"Hey, cool it," Lucy screamed as she turned to look at Yukino "you ready to get started," she asked.
"yes," Yukino said, "let's go."
Full effort hospitality
"{open gate of the ram: Aries}."
Aries appeared from a veil of smoke. "I'm sorry," she shouted as she landed on the ground, looking around. "I'm sorry, but do you need something today," she asked "sorry, but I'm not feeling one hundred percent today," she admitted
"it alright," Lucy told her, "because today is a day about giving back," Lucy said
"what do you mean," Aries asked, "you are helping me."
"think of it as a reward," Yukino told her "all you celestial spirits worked so hard to close the eclipse gate" she smiled "so this is me and Lucy's way of saying thank you for all your hard work," Yukino said, "and everything else that you did for us during the games" she smiled her and Lucy had come to this agreement after everything had settled in Magnolia. Hence, they went to star hill, an excellent empty area where they would be able to help their spirits because they deserved it.
"well, I don't know," Aries said. "I was just doing my job."
"and we appreciate that," Lucy said, "and to show you how much we're going to be giving back" she smiled at her "so tell what's one thing you've always wanted to do but couldn't" she smiled "and I will do my best to make that dream come true."
"well," Aries looked away, a slight blush on her face as she pressed her index fingers together, "you see I" there that she had always wanted to do but never had the timer that and the sun in the celestial world wasn't exactly ideal well "I...I always" she stopped her shyness from taking over. "I always wanted a tan," she screamed as everyone looked at her, confused. "I've always been so fluffy and wholly," she said, looking down, "but I always wanted to have a nice, good tan."
"I got this," Natsu said "hold still and strike a pose," Natsu said, "{fire dragon: roar}" he screamed as Lucy let out a scream of horror as Natsu shot his attack at Aries when it was over, giving her a nice tan as she smiled as she looked herself over "don't give me that look," Natsu said, "been playing with fire my whole life I know how to give a tan" he smiled.
"yes," Aries screamed as she hugged Lucy "you have no idea how happy this makes me," she shouted as she squeezed her as tightly as she could
"then I'm happy," Lucy said as she patted her back, signaling her to let her go "now why don't you get back" she smiled. "and show it off, girl."
"call me if you need me," Aries said as she left
"That was interesting," Sting muttered
"yes," Yukino noted, "a unique solution."
"Alright," Lucy said, "now" she stopped a bad feeling coming over. She noticed a concerned look coming from Yukino "nothing; it's just," she sighed. "I have a feeling that things are about to get weird," Lucy sighed "{open gate of the golden bull: Taurus}" Lucy screamed as Taurus appeared.
"Are you feeling lonely, miss Lucy?" Taurus asked. "I don't see how that can ever be true," he said
"Yeah, that's not" she was stopped. When Taurus let out a scream of joy, looking past Lucy and looking at Yukino
"umm hello" Yukino said backing up
"such too fine figures so close together," he screamed "this is what dreams are made of," he shouted as he left.
"go home" Lucy screamed as she looked at the embarrassed Yukino as s sighed.
"I guess the look was good enough for the muscle cow," Happy said "hey Lucy," Happy called "the four of us are just hanging out," he said, "so we're just going to head back."
"what you said you'd help," Lucy said
"yeah, but that was before we realized how boring it would be," Happy said, "so we're going to head back see ya-" he was stopped when the ground caved in as he fell into the hole.
"wow, a short cut" Lector called as Virgo appeared from the ground
"Hello, princess," Virgo said
"hey Virgo," Lucy said, "I haven't called you yet," she said
"I know," Virgo said, "but I heard you were gathering spirits, so I rushed on over."
"word spreads fast over there," Lucy said
"what is it you want, Virgo" Yukino
"anyway, remember that punishment diary I was telling you about," Virgo asked "well, I've been looking to add it," she smiled, "so princess will you add to it" she gave her a big smile. "I've been bad and deserve punishment," Virgo said with glee, "so give me your worse."
"This couldn't be more wrong," Lucy said
"you might need this," Happy said, handing her whip over.
"don't encourage her," Lucy screamed.
"I'm looking forward to this," Virgo said
"really," Natsu said as a light bulb when off in his head. He went up to Lucy, whispering in her ear.
"you sure that will work," Lucy asked.
"well, it's either that or the whip," Natsu told her as Lucy sighed.
"fine," she looked at Virgo, "so you want to be punished," Lucy asked as Virgo nodded gleefully "well, then there you go," Lucy said, "your punishment is not getting punished because that would be rewarding you," she smiled.
"princess," Virgo said, "that is so amazing," Virgo said, "by taking away something I want" Virgo smiled, "you truly are the greatest princess ever to live," she smiled. "I must write this down," she smiled "can we have more punishment time, please, princess."
"sorry, Virgo, but I need to call the others," Lucy said
"of course," Virgo said, "please call if you need me" she then gave away, going to do whatever Virgo did. next, they had summoned Cancer, who had immediately started to cut Happy's hair
"please be careful," Happy begged
"snip" Cancer screamed "snip," he shouted as he turned away as Happy now had a giant afro on his head.
"would you like to look," Yukino asked. She took out a mirror as Happy let out a scream in shock.
"what the hell" Happy screamed "this is horrible," he screamed
"I think it looks cool, bro," Lector said
"I can't let Carla see me like this," Happy shouted behind them. Lucy had summoned Capricorn finally, a semi-normal request, she thought.
"your thoughtfulness knows no bounds, lady Lucy" Capricorn smiled. "I have but one request," Capricorn said as he pulled out a small book of poems. "so, if you would indulge me for but a moment," he smiled, "oh glorious light, you shine from the land illuminating the heavens, bathing you in divine radiance, you light shining."
"you know I forgot you were a poet," Lucy muttered
"yes," Capricorn said, "I have a myriad of poems that I just want to share with you, my lady" Capricorn smiled, "if you will allow it."
"of course," Lucy said as Capricorn started again
"wow," Sting muttered, "they seem close."
"yeah," Natsu said, "Capricorn, here is her first spirit," Natsu said, "long story, but they got separated for a while," Natsu said
"I see," Sting muttered as he and Natsu leaned back before long; both had fallen asleep with their exceed pals falling asleep in their lap as Lucy and Yukino helped Scorpio with his wish, mainly involved Lucy with face paint and screaming, which was enough to wake them up.
"nice hairdo Yukino "Sting joked.
"I'm not proud of it," Yukino muttered as she fixed her hair
[##the usual fairy tail ruckus##]
"Are you sure about this" Lucy screamed as an apple sat atop her head as Sagittarius smiled? What was his request, you ask? He wanted to shoot an apple off the top of someone's head. Lucy screamed as she grabbed Happy "no, please don't," she shouted?
"Sorry, my lady," Sagittarius shouted, "but I always wanted to try this."
"I'm too cute to die," Happy screamed
"we promised we'd help," Natsu said
"yeah, tuff it out, buddy," Lector said
"that easy for all of you say," Happy screamed "you're not the ones about to get pierced with an arrow," Happy shouted as Sagittarius steadied his aim.
"hold steady little kitty," Sagittarius shouted as he fired his arrow, hitting Happy's fluffy hair and creating a hole. Sagittarius shouted with glee as Yukino showed Happy a mirror.
"you might want a look, Happy," Yukino said as Happy screamed
"Lucy, why do your spirits hate me" Happy cried
"Just hold out, little guy, only a few more spirits left," Lucy said as she pulled out Gemini's key "{open gate of the twins: Gemini}" Lucy shouted as Gemini appeared, already taking the form of Lucy "we need to talk about that."
"We only do this, Lucy, because we love you so much," Gemini said
"fine, but is there something you always wanted to do," Lucy asked. When Gemini stripped down and started running around wholly naked, she immediately regretted that question. Yukino had to hide her laugh as Lucy chased Gemini around "get back here," Lucy shouted,
"Pedy Pedy," Gemini called.
"look away" Lucy screamed as Natsu and Sting turned away, trying to hide their blush.
"I always thought Virgo would be the one into that stuff," Natsu whispered
"Aye"
"go home" Lucy shouted as Gemini disappeared
"you look tired," Natsu said, "maybe you should take a break."
"My patience is growing then," Lucy groaned out as she massaged her temples, "but I'll be fine."
"why don't you let me take the next one," Yukino said, "You can take a quick rest."
"I almost forgot you had spirits of your own," Lucy sighed "sure, a break from the crazy parade sounds great."
"Alright," Yukino said, "{open gate of divine balance: Libra}," she called as Libra appeared in front of her. They, too, exchanged a look as the air went silent around them 'she must still be mad at me for trying to give her up,' swallowing the lump in her throat "so I take you already know why we brought you here today," she said, trying to break the ice "is there anything you want" she asked.
"what do I want," Libra asked as everyone dropped to the ground, as she started using her gravity magic.
"so much for taking a break," Lucy said
"I'm sorry," Yukino muttered, "but we owe them," she said as Libra stopped, "so I take your satisfied."
"very," Libra said with a blush on her face as she left
"just one more," Yukino said as she pulled out another key "{Pisces}" she called as Pisces
"oh, hey Pisces," Lector called as the white one got closer to him "oh no," he muttered
"Pisces," Yukino shouted, "don't" she was too late as the whitefish had already eaten Lector flying off
"not, so fun is it" Happy was interrupted as the blackfish went up to him and ate him as well "oh, come on." he screamed, "cats eat fish, not the other way."
"Hey, give that back," Natsu screamed
"give me back my best friend," Sting screamed
moments later, after Yukino got both fish to spit out Happy and Lector as she went up to them, "I'm so sorry."
"you okay, buddy" Sting asked.
"I was just turned to fish food," Lector screamed, "what do you think."
"I'm sorry," Yukino muttered, "if I knew that was what they wanted to do," she looked away "well, it's over now."
"I wanna go home," Happy groaned.
"at least the sprits seem to be leaving in a better mood," Yukino said
"then that means it is working," Lucy said, "on to the next one."
"Hey gorgeous," a voice said. Everyone turned to see Loke standing behind them "long time no see, good job summoning all of us at once like that," he smiled "that took a lot of work."
"we're supposed to be thanking you, Loke," Lucy said
"gratitude goes both ways," Loke told her, "and besides, everything I've ever wished for is right here" he smiled "great friends contracted to a beautiful woman who keeps just as gorgeous company" he winked at Yukino "you don't ask the man who has everything that he wants" he smiled "but if I had to write it down all I want is continue to be your spirit" he smiled "you know as thanks for putting up with me."
"you," Lucy said, rolling her eyes as Loke handed Yukino a rose
"and for you," he said
"I should state that she is close to Mira," Lucy said, "like little sister close, so tread carefully."
"well, just letting her know that she is beautiful," Loke said "girl needs the confidence, and I'm the man to give it to her"
"you know you never told me what happened when he flirted with Mira," Yukino asked.
"Hey now," Loke said
"what's there to tell," Natsu said, "it's Mira. and lover boy here tried to flirt with her"
"that's true," Yukino laughed.
"like I said," Loke muttered, "what more could I ask" he sighed
"alright, mister, self-righteous," Lucy laughed. "I'll be seeing you."
"if you ever need me," Loke said, leaving
"he's nice," Yukino said
"a bit grabby," Sting muttered
"Someone overprotective," Lucy laughed as she sighed 'last one' she thought as she turned around "hey, where did you guys go," she asked as Sting was the only one standing behind her.
"we're just introducing ourselves gradually, Lucy," Yukino called from behind a tree.
"by gradually, she means not at all," Happy called.
"cowards," Lucy screamed as she turned back to the lake, "let's get this over with," she sighed "{open gate of the water bearer: Aquarius}" she shouted as water sprouted from the ground as Sting and Lector held themselves in fear before running back to the tree where Yukino was
"yeah, gradually sounds like a good idea," Sting said
"so, what the hell do you want" Aquarius growled out "you better have a good reason for calling me out here, brat," Aquarius growled
"so, umm, Aquarius, how are things with you and Scorpio," Lucy asked
"Lucy," Happy screamed
"What did you say I couldn't hear you speak up," Aquarius said, "cause, to me, it sounded like you said Scorpio's been going behind my back again," she said, "that he's been hanging out with a bunch fluzzies," she shouted.
"what, I never said that," Lucy said
"the fish lady," Lector was stopped when Happy placed a hand on his mouth,
"so, the reason I called you out here," Lucy groaned out, "was that we figured we should show the spirits some form of appreciation for closing the gate" Aquarius huffed as Lucy looked away "so what do you want"
"make. Me. laugh, do a skit or something," Aquarius growled. "I just want you to make me laugh."
"talk about asking the impossible' Happy thought to himself
"But I don't," Lucy started
"Did I stutter?" Aquarius asked her,
"no, ma'am." Lucy said, "Yukino."
"me," Yukino shouted, "but I'm not an actor. Have Sting do it."
"yeah, throw me under the bus," he screamed
moments later. After Lucy and Yukino managed to set everything up, they were all ready to get started "this is going to find some way to bite me in the but," Happy muttered,
"you'll be fine, buddy," Natsu said
"I don't know," Lector said. "I think being turned to fish food was bad enough," Lector said "maybe we should have recorded it," as Lucy cleared her throat.
"Everyone, everyone, we have found sleeping beauty" Lucy, who was now dressed up in a fancy outfit, stood over Yukino, who was pretending to be asleep "now the time has come to wake her up," she said as she pulled out a cartoonishly large hammer slamming it as Yukino shifted a bit not wanting to be hit "well this won't do my strength won't be enough to wake up this far lass" she laughed "I know" she then pulled out a napkin "this should work," she said as she stuck it Yukino nose.
"This is getting hard to watch," Happy muttered as he looked at Aquarius, who was getting angrier by the second.
"what the hell is this" Aquarius shouted. "I told you to make me laugh, not piss me off," she screamed.
"you know I've never been good at improv," she screamed as Aquarius shot water at her and sent her over the cliff. As everyone else went in different directions as she calmed down, letting out a growl as she went to check on Lucy. As Aquarius went over the cliff, she saw Lucy knocked out hanging by a branch before she let out a small laugh "you look like a sucky costume. Hung out to dry," she laughed as she picked her up, bringing her back to the church she placed her down before wrapping her in a blanket "you idiot" Aquarius muttered "you summoned to many of us at once" she sighed "still though you're doing better than when we first started.
Flashback
"come on, Aquarius," a younger Lucy said, "let's play."
Aquarius felt her eyes twitch as she glared at the little girl "don't summon me in your bath," she screamed as the water went everywhere.
"I'm sorry."
"how many times do I have to tell you" Aquarius shouted "don't summon me from your dingy pet trap," she called. "I and this thing are not the same capeesh," she exclaimed.
"but you both have fins," Lucy said
"so, you're saying this thing, and I have something in common," Aquarius shouted. Scaring, Lucy, seeing this turned her head. She sighed "come on, kid, you need to go hang out with other brats your age."
"I'm sorry," Lucy said, "but you're the only friend I have," she said, "but you always seem to get angry" hearing this, Aquarius looked away. This had been their thing ever since Layla died. A part of her hated it such a big house she'd expect this girl to have more friends than she knew what to do with but the more she saw her, the more she realized it was just her she sighed 'I must be losing my mind' she thought to herself.
"fine, but this is the last time you summon me from a fishbowl."
End Flashback
Aquarius smiled as she looked over at Lucy "you're not lonely anymore," she said as she started watching the sunset.
"yeah," Lucy's voice came scaring her. She turned to see the girl sitting up "cause I still have you" she smiled as Aquarius looked away. as the night sky came over, she felt Lucy lean on her shoulder "no matter how many friends I get," she told her, "I know I'll always have you."
"you know," Aquarius said as she leaned back, "you won't get a boyfriend go you keep dressing the way you do," she said, "and let's be honest, it's time for you to lose some more weight, kid" she stopped when Lucy laughed.
"I Love you too" was all Lucy told her.
To be continued
