"Tch, that fight was lame as hell Loke", Lucy yawned. Finally having enough of Lucy's shenanigans, Aquarius had come out long ago to knock some sense into the girl and get her to finish the fight with the giant cat soldier.
"Yeah, you'd think these royal capital people would have chosen a stronger person for captain. You didn't even have to use your flames to beat him" Loke laughed.
Lucy nodded her head in agreement to her spirit. She wasn't sure how they chose the captains but obviously it wasn't by how strong they were. Those soldiers were weak as hell too.
"Just my luck, I would get sent to a place filled with only weak people", Lucy thought.
"Welp let's go look for-what are we looking for again?"
"Lucy…we're looking for the king's room so then we can have Gemini copy all the information about the giant lacrima and figure out a way to break Fairy Tail out" Loke explained.
"Right, we are doing that! That's why I left everyone with Gemini!" Lucy cheered.
"Charle being able to remember that passage was lil' sketch so I figured better I go off my own and find this place while gemi-myself protects them without anyone knowing. I mean if Gemi-myself is there everyone will still feel protected cause they'll think it's me and since Gemi-myself is as strong as me, they'll be able to beat anyone, ya know Loke?" Lucy smiled, oblivious to the flaw in her plan.
It took a moment for Loke to finally realize what was exactly wrong with their flawless plan, mainly because he kept trying to keep up with the fact gemi-myself was in fact not Lucy herself but gemini.
After hearing aloud everything Lucy had just said, it slowly dawned on the lion spirit what he had allowed his princess to do. He had never felt so stupid. How could he have let his precious idiot go through with this plan when their key to success was currently busy with a different mission. How the hell did he miss that, how did Aquarius miss that?!
"Oi, lion boy! Don't go blaming any of this shit on me! She didn't tell me about this lil plan of hers. If she did, I would've at least told her about the hole in her plan. Fucking idiot", Aquarius tsked.
"I can't believe I'm such an idiot" Loke groaned.
"Whoa, you too Loke" Lucy grinned. "Welcome to the club then!"
Loke looked to his precious master before shaking his head, he had to let her know that her plan was officially a failure.
"Princess, can I ask you a question?"
Lucy nodded her head happily, still keeping a watchful eye for any sight of the kings room.
"Whaz up?"
"Where is Gemini?"
"With Windy and ma mate." Lucy answered confused.
"Hmm, and who is it we need to get the information from the king?" Loke asked.
"Er..uh, wait don't help me I know this" Lucy said furrowing her eyebrows, "Oh I got it Gemini!"
"You're a grade A idiot brat" Aquarius sighed.
Lucy shot her favorite spirit a thumbs up before going back to paying attention to Loke.
"Hmm, and how are you going to do that if Gemini is currently protecting your mate and Wendy?" Loke asked.
"Easy, I'll just call them by key, right?" Lucy asked, confused now by what Loke was trying to explain.
Loke rubbed his forehead in pain at trying to get across what was wrong with this plan. Luckily, Aquarius was still out and wasn't one to mince words.
"Ya dumb brat, Gemini is currently protecting your mate and Wendy, therefore you CANNOT call them back to help us because that could potentially leave them in danger because, oh I don't know what if they're in the middle of a fight and need help!
The other half of team Natsu were indeed in the middle of a fight and utilizing Gemi-Lucy's help.
So again, how are you going to do this without Gemini?" Aquairus asked.
Lucy bit her thumb in thought, she was currently at a loss for what to do. She couldn't believe she fucked up so bad. Why didn't she just leave Loke or virgo with her mate, those two were plenty strong so they would've been good enough to help. Well, the only thing Lucy could think to do was what Luce taught her when she screwed up majorly.
"We're gonna have to beat the crap outta people until they tell us what we want to know" Lucy smirked.
Loke and Aquarius slapped their faces at their masters' words. Of course, this would be her solution to the problem, but then again, they didn't expect anything else from the idiot.
"Alright then, let's kick some ass and take some names, princess" Loke smiled.
"Nah, ima just kick some ass Like, kay? I like my name!" Lucy said happily. "Momma gave it to me you know" she winked.
Like and Aquarius `couldn't help but stare at their idiot master fondly at the reminder of how she got her name.
"Of course princess, let's just kick ass instead" Loke said fondly.
Aquarius, usually one to call out her idiot for being idiot, couldn't help but instead chuckle at her owner's gullibleness.
"You're such an adorable idiot, Lucy" Aquarius whispered.
"Ahem, whatever! Call me out when you find someone worth beating I ain't wasting precious time with my boyfriend just to wander around" Aquarius said before disappearing.
"Gotcha! See ya later aqua. Come on Loke, let's go kick some ass!" Lucy said happily, giddy at the fact her favorite spirit thought she was adorable.
"Oh, look there's a little girl with a weird hat let's beat her up first and see if she knows anything!" Lucy said eagerly.
Loke shot a thumbs up to his princess, "Let's!"
Coco was aimlessly wandering the halls of the palace trying to figure out just how the heck she was supposed to get more magic energy. From what she had learned from sugarboy and Byro they could no longer open anymore portals to gather more mages, what her king was asking of her was really was just crazy.
Deciding she had enough of wandering around, Coco started to head back to the King's palace room when she heard shouting from across the hall. Looking towards the direction of the voices she saw two intruders rushing towards her. In an instant her flight mode kicked in and she began running the opposite direction.
She had no idea who these people were but if the devilish look on the blondes face and smirk on the spikey haired man's face was any indication then they were not friends.
"Oi! Funny hat girl gets back here, I got some questions for you" the mysterious blonde shouted.
Coco ran as fast as she could, hearing the girl shout that only made her more wary of the two.
"No! I don't know who you are, but you don't seem like good people!" she shouted back.
"Hey, don't talk about princess like that! She's amazing!" the spikey haired man yelled.
Coco almost tripped at hearing that someone so vulgar and unkept was a princess. But instead of staying to find out if that was true she continued trying to escape.
"Damn this is lame as hell! I don't like running or exercising!" Lucy shouted.
"Why are you tel-"
"Tch, I said I hate running and you made me run", Lucy growled.
"But..how?" Coco whispered, eyes wide in terror. In front of her stood the angry looking blonde who seemed to tower over her.
"Hmm shoulda just stayed put like princess said" Loke sighed. If the lion spirit was being honest he felt just a little l bad for what was going to happen next to the enemy girl. Just a little.
As it turns out while Coco wasn't paying attention, the blonde appeared right before her eyes covered in flames. It appears she had somehow shot herself across the hall pass Coco with the use of her flames.
"Now then, as punishment for making me run and not listening to me we're gonna play a game Luce taught me called how long till the flames make you scream?" Lucy announced.
Coco wasn't sure whether it was sweat running down her face or tears but either way she highly doubted she would survive this encounter with this monster.
"Shit, there's no end to these damn soldier dudes are there?!" Edo-Lucy yelled while struggling against two edo-soldiers.
Erza, Wendy and Natsu couldn't help but agree with Edo-Lucy. With the overwhelming amount of soldiers coming at them, the two mages with mysterious powers and Knightwalker they were at quite the disadvantage.
"Yo! Copy-me can't you at least do something bout these damn soldiers?!" Lucy yelled at the distracted spirit.
Gemini turned towards their masters counterpart and yawned, but nevertheless shot a thumbs up. This fight was turning out to be really boring, course they couldn't just up and leave, their candy allowance would be taken away for not listening to their princess and protecting everyone.
"Electric fire demon explosion boom boom!" Gemini shouted. Within seconds the entire tunnel they were standing in was engulfed in electrifying flames. Nearly everyone who hadn't gotten out of the spells way in time was taken out.
"No way that was a real spell" Edo-Lucy gulped, pausing mid-fight with Sugarboy, who had also stopped after witnessing the gruesome scene. After that display of power, it seemed Sugarboy was more scared of the blonde girl in the cloak then his captain.
Natsu couldn't help but fist pump the air after Gemini's show of power. "Gemini! That was so cool! You gotta show me how you did that!"
"Piri, piri, we'll do it for some candy."
Erza sighed, once again the mischievous spirits had created their own destructive spell that had somehow saved them.
"Welp, we're gonna fight the hot lady now" Gemini said eyeing Knightwalker with something akin to glee in their eyes.
"I appreciate the compliments, however since it seems you are somehow not my beloved Lucy- I will not be going easy on you" Edo-Erza warned.
Gemini couldn't help the smile that grew on their face at Edo-Erza's reply. That's exactly what the twins wanted.
"Hey, I don't know how to break it to you, but I think that spirit thing is gonna bang my captain" Hughes said awkwardly while still fighting the other fairy tail mages.
"Hahaha, Natsu can you imagine what Lucy would do if she found out that Gemini ended up banging Edo-Erza!" Happy chuckled.
"Gah, Happy she'd probably get all mopey because she missed out on the chance" Natsu cackled.
"Shut up" Erza yelled, deflecting an attack from oncoming soldiers.
"I supposed it will make no difference if I destroy you since you are not my real Lucy." Edo-Erza said,
Gemini nodded back at Edo-Erza. They knew this was going to be fun, if only the twins could remember their true objective of protecting Wendy and the others.
"Lightning blast!"
"princesses flaming explosion growl!"
On one side of the cave a heated battle had started between Gemini and Edo-Erza. Meanwhile Natsu and the others were still trying to get a handle on the two magic holders that had appeared as well as the soldiers.
"Heavens blades!"
"Nice try, but that won't work with my magic" Sugar boy laughed. In just seconds all of Erza's swords had been liquiefied.
Erza was in complete shock at what had just happened to her swords. One moment they were headed straight for the pink suited weirdo, the next every single one of her swords were destroyed.
"Damn it! I had to be matched up with the person worst suited for me" Erza thought.
Natsu and Wendy seemed to have a handle on the emo looking mage, their tag teaming overwhelming the mage. However, just as they were about to defeat the
Edolas mage, a slew of soldiers came rushing in overwhelming the two. It was as if there was no end to the amount of soldiers that were entering the cave. It was quite the overwhelming sight for everyone who wasn't part of the Edolas army.
Gemi-Lucy was having a grand time fighting Edo-Erza. The copy-cat of their masters lover wasn't crazy strong but she was enough to give them an enjoyable fight. The fact she was in basically a bikini made it even better.
Blood dripped down her head from where she was tossed into the cave wall.
Despite being in immense pain Knightwalker refused to back down from this fight.
She would get her lover back.
"Ha-ha, you're quite strong for..a mere copy of my lover" Edo-Erza breathed.
"Hmm, you're fun to play with too," Gemini teased.
Erza Knightwalker had never felt such fury in her life, except when she was rejected by her original Lucy, though that is an entirely different matter. Thankfully, before deciding to attack a distraction appeared.
Gemini was just about to take out Erza Knightwalker when they saw their princess's friends about to be captured.
"Oh? It looks like our fight will have to be cut short, seems we now have the extra magic energy the king required", Knightwalker sneered, getting the upperhand on gemi-lucy who was momentarily distracted at the sight of her masters friends getting captured. They were so going to get their candy allowance taken away.
"I guess this is goodbye discount Lucy" Edo-Erza laughed, while stabbing Gemi-Lucy in the abdominal, the twin spirits could only stare at the gaping hole in their stomach in shock because someone had actually managed to beat them. Before they knew it, they were disappearing. Wendy and the others faces dropping in shock at gemi-Lucy getting beaten.
Gemini could only say one thing before they disappeared back into the spirit world, "Oopsie".
In the end, the Fairy Tail mages and Edo-Lucy were overtaken much to all four mages surprise and put in handcuffs. When they tried to use their magic, they found they were unable too.
"Yo-you have magic suppressing cuffs?!" Natsu yelled, "but how?"
"Despite not being able to fully utilize magic, we still have magic running through our bodies thus the need for such cuffs." Hughes explained, while trying to ignore the pain he was in. Despite winning the fight he still received quite a few hits.
As Knightwalker examined her prisoners she couldn't help but notice the two cats with them.
"Ah, so that's what it was." She muttered shortly, before she and the soldiers bowed to Happy and Charle. " Welcome home, Exceed!" Knightwalker intoned.
Natsu frowned. "Exceed?"
"Happy, Charle." Wendy stared at the two in confusion. "What's going on?"
"Thank you for your assistance in capturing the intruders." Edo-Erza announced, much to everyone's disbelief.
Horrified, Happy broke out in a cold sweat. "C-charle?"
"You will be rewarded greatly when we get back to the castle, now then those of you who were able to survive let us be on our way" Edo-Erza shouted.
Natsu grunted when he got harshly kicked into a prison cell along with Wendy. "Oi, go ahead and kick me all you want but don't touch a hair on Wendy!" He growled, shooting off the ground and slamming into a hastily shut set of bars.
"Oh yeah or what? You forget you're our prisoner" Hughes laughed.
Natsu grit his teeth in anger, he hated how the edo-magic user was right. That didn't make it okay to hit Wendy.
"Just wait, when Lucy finds us you're gonna get you butt kicked!" Wendy shouted holding the side she was kicked at.
"Yeah yeah, meanwhile can you guys shut up already?"
"No! Now tell us where's everyone else?"
Hughes rolled his eyes at the question but still decided to play dumb. "The others?" He repeated.
"Edo-Lucy, Erza, Charle, and Happy!" Wendy clarified angrily. "Where are they?"
"Reject Lucy and discount Erza you mean?" Hughes pondered that for a moment.
"Ah, well the Captain took them and tossed em in a different dungeon. We don't really have any use for them. Best guess they'll be executed."
Natsu slammed his face against the bars, ignoring blood beginning to drip from his forehead. "You bastards lay one finger on either of them, and I'll turn all of you into ash!" He declared furiously.
"Oh, I'm shaking in fear at the guy behind bars" Hughes mock-shivered, while two guards behind him laughed. "Geez, are all of Earthland's magic users so scary?"
"Why only them?" Wendy asked desperately. "What about Happy and Charle?"
"You mean those Exceed?" Hughes grinned maliciously. "They've accomplished their mission, so we've already returned them to their native home. They're probably getting awarded right now."
"Accomplished a mission?" Wendy echoed. "But Charle said she abandoned it!"
"Nah." Hughes chuckled. "Those idiots accomplished it perfectly."
"What was it then?" Wendy asked. "That mission that they were to accomplish?"
Hughes exchanged an amused glance with the other mage who was with him.
"You dumbasses haven't realized it yet? They were ordered to go to earthland and get you" Hughes grinned, having finished explaining. He began to laugh, walking out the dungeon.
"We were after the Dragon Slayers' magical energy this whole time, your guild was just a bonus!"
"So it is true what they say..." Byro observed, as the king and part of his most important staff members sat around a table. "We found out that the mages of Earthland can quickly replenish the magic energy stored inside their bodies."
"Hmmm..." Sugarboy mused. "So, you could say in a way it's almost like they're Exceed then."
"Their magic power cannot compare to the Exceed, though." Byro countered, eyeing the flamboyant man warily. Despite being bandaged up from head to toe he had still showed up to the meeting. Byro had to hand it to the lad he was a dedicated captain.
"Which means it can probably restore energy, right? Hughes' asked.
"Probably." Byro agreed.
"Well damn, we're pretty lucky we haven't killed them yet." Hughes muttered, showing up to hear the tail end of their conversation.
"Even if we wanted to our technology is not yet at a level capable of drawing magic energy directly out of human bodies." Byro added, nodding in approval at the mages attendance.
"Those who are human and yet not quite human..." Byro smirked. "If our experiment succeeds, we will have a semi-permanent source of magical power."
"Woah!" Hughes grinned. "Awesome!"
"Very good, Byro. Begin immediately." Faust ordered the short man. "But hurry with the extraction of magical energy from the Earthland lacryma. Be prepared for the chance of something unexpected happening."
"Yes, sir!"
"Not long now until magic is returned to this world!" Hughes exclaimed.
"Awesome!"
"Hm..." Sugarboy agreed. "That sounds good."
"Please stop it hurts!" Coco screamed.
"Yuh, I know. Fire on bare skin would hurt anyone" Lucy said nonchalantly. However, despite saying this she did not relent with her torture and continued to test the limits of Coco's loyalty to the Edolas king.
"Why are you doing this?" Coco cried.
"Why..am I doing this?" Lucy asked. Surprisingly that question got Lucy to stop burning Coco's arm.
"Hah? Your dumbass…is for luce asking why I'm doing this? Lucy sneered.
Coco gulped, she had definitely asked the wrong question.
Loke and Aquarius couldn't help but shake their heads at the girl's idiotic question. There was no helping her now, not when their princess had used her father's name to state the severity of the situation.
"Are you asking dumb questions on purpose? Or are you just tryna piss me off?" Lucy seethed.
"I-I'm not trying to do anything!" Coco pleaded. "Honest, I just-"
"Shut it, before I burn your mouth off..slowly. You know why I'm doing this. You fucking took my friends, turned them into some huge ass lacrima for their magic and now your actin like ya don't know anythin' bout this." Lucy stated angrily.
Tears ran down Coco's face, she couldn't believe the situation she ended up in. And despite the pleading looks she was sending to the mermaid looking woman and man in a suit, neither seemed inclined on helping her.
Loke shook his head at the little girl in front of him, now she did it. Lucy was no longer going to take it easy on her. Oh wells, sucks to be her.
"Tsk, dumb lil Edolas brat, shoulda thought about the consequences of your actions" Aquarius thought while rolling her eyes.
Lucy grit her teeth in anger, holding back the urge to burn this girl to a crisp. Instead she decided to go back to what she was originally doing, burning the ever living shit out of her.
"Ha..ha..hahahaha, well damn, I'm so pissed now, I've decided I'm gonna turn the level up on this game!" Lucy grinned maliciously, pushing back her bangs.
"Yeah, we're going up to Lucifer level" Lucy said a dark look in her eye appearing, scaring Coco even more.
Clapping her hands together in glee, Lucy went on to explain the new rules of the game her father had created.
"Alright, starting now when I ask a question, if I think you're taking too long to answer then I get to burn your face, but if you do answer I'll just burn your arm or sumthin instead. Anyways, try ta act like you're a brave lil soldier and say nothin' then you lose...k?" Lucy said sinisterly.
Tears ran down Coco's face, what had she done to deserve this, she was just following her kings orders. They were supposed to help Edolas survive the magic deficiency that was occurring. Also, this game was highly unfair, either way she was going to end up burned!
"Now then! Where is the kings room and do you know how to turn my friends back to normal?" Lucy asked.
Coco's heart was racing she knew the answer to both those questions but in answering she'd be betraying her country. However, no matter what her answer was she was going to end up in excruciating pai-
"TIMES UP!"
"WAIT WAIT, PLEASE I'LL TELL YOU EVERYTHING I KNOW!" Coco cried," just please..no more burning I can't.. I can't handle anymore" she begged, deciding she could no longer handle the pain of any flames on her body and would rather take being exiled from her kingdom than being burned again.
Lucy glared at the girl before speaking, "That isn't how the game goes, you speak I only burn you a lil', you don't speak and I burn you lot, member?"
Coco failed to hold back her tears and nodded, "I, yes I know, but my whole body hurts… I can't, please anything but more flames" she sobbed.
"Whatcha think guys" Lucy said turning to her spirits.
"Eh I guess you can cut the kid some slack if she gives us the info we want" Aquaiurus tsked.
"Just make sure it's worth our time or princess won't be the only one who makes you feel pain" Loke threatened.
Coco never hated her king more than she did now.
"Was it alright for us to have let Lucy-sama torture such a young girl?" Capricorn questioned.
"I've seen ebi torture people, she actually went easy on her" Cancer shrugged,
"Besides these people started it when they kidnapped ebi's family."
Line break
"So you're saying you did ALL THIS so you could have more magic in Edolas." Lucy repeated, trying her best to not set the entire castle on fire in retaliation.
Coco, who was still in tears, nodded her head. "Yes, the king said the mages we capt-hiccup-captured should have sustained us for at least ten years."
"This is a fucking drag, so then where the hell do I find the king and how do I turn my friends back?"
"You-you have to go straight through the hall that way, then turn left. You'll see big red doors and tho-that's where he usually is. The-the only way to return your friends back to normal is with this cannon that'll revert all their magic back into their human forms. For that you need a key" Coco sobbed.
Lucy nodded her head as she listened to everything the young girl was saying, while Loke took notes, knowing his master was going to forget everything right after being told all this.
"Alright then, now you are-" before Lucy could finish what she was going to say she felt Gemini return to its key after being stabbed.
She turned to Loke and Aquarius in shock, who had also felt Gemini return to their key.
"This is what you get for sending a spirit that copies your exact mannerisms" Aquarius groaned.
" I don't even like mayonnaise?" Lucy scoffed.
"MANNERISMS YOU FUCKING IMBECILE!" Aquarius shouted.
Lucy shrugged off her spirits shouting and turned back to the girl she was tortur- questioning. Now that she knew how to save everyone, she was going to find out where her teammates where.
"Last thing, If I wanted to know where the dungeons were, where would I look?" Lucy asked, after finding out from Gemini her friends got taking prisoner by hot Erza.
Coco, finally able to breathe a little better from all the burns on her, took a second to think before answering.
"Um, the dungeons are located in the lower level of the castle but they're heavily guarded." She answered. "I think about twelve hundred soldiers watch over the dungeons."
"Ha.. .hahaha Loke, Aquarius this dumbass thinks that's heavily guarded!" Lucy laughed.
Aquarius and Loke couldn't help but smirk at the little girls dumbfound look. Sure to the average mage that would be a lot but for their master that would be a walk in the park.
"But..the most elite soldiers guard down there… no one-no one has ever escaped the dungeons!" Coco cried.
Aquarius rolled her eyes at the girls warning, she knew her brat could handle those soldiers.
"Oh my Luce!, Hear that Aqua-Loke? Lit soldiers guard the dungeons, I'm sooo scared" Lucy mimicked sarcastically. " Shuddup already and lead me to them or I'll burn you more got it?" Lucy said.
"It's elite soldiers, princess" Loke chuckled. "But yes, it sounds oh so scary."
"Yes ma'am!" Coco no longer tried warning this mage about the dangers of entering their dungeons. If she wished for her own death wish, then so be it.
If only she knew.
"I can't believe we got captured" Natsu groaned. The dragon slayer had never felt so ashamed of himself. Lucy was never gonna let him live this down.
"To be fair Natsu we were really overwhelmed by Edolas soldiers and those other magic users." Wendy said.
Natsu shook his head, still disappointed in himself. "I know but Lucy would never let herself be captured by these lame-os!"
"I'm sure Lucy won't look to down on us" Wendy smiled. "We're her team mates remember?"
Natsu smiled down at the little girl who was doing her best to reassure him of the situation they were in. Despite not knowing each other for very long he still felt a close bond to her forming. Probably not as close as Lucy's but pretty close.
"Ha, you got that right!" Natsu cheered ruffling the girls hair, causing Wendy to giggle. Although she wasn't very fond of her hair being ruffled, unless you were Lucy or Jellal, she still allowed Natsu to do it.
"I guess we just wait until Lucy finds us, right Natsu?" Wendy asked, with hope filled eyes.
"Yup! I just know she's close too."
"I ALREADY TOLD YOU, I HAD A MATE" Lucy yelled, while running away from her mate's practically naked counterpart.
"I DON'T CARE! I WANT YOU" Edo-Erza yelled.
"You are so gonna get it when we escape this crazy chick" Lucy growled into the little girls ear as they continued to run away further from what should've been the path to the dungeons.
"I TOLD YOU ELITE SOLDIERS GUARD THE DUNGEONS, DIDN'T I!" Coco cried.
"Oh Loke, Aquarius you're here..where's Lucy?" Erza asked. Not that she was worried about the dumb demon but she was just curious about her whereabouts.
"She is at the moment indisposed" Loke explained.
Erza raised an eyebrow at the celestial spirits words. What could possibly stop the dumb demon from rescuing her, not that she needed rescuing.
"hahah, she's totally being chased by the red heads counterpart ain't she!" Edo-Lucy cackled.
"Got it in one" Aquarius sighed.
"Tch, dumb demon." Erza scoffed.
"Virgo, Capricorn someone help me out before I accidentally bang this chick!" Lucy yelled.
It took a moment but Edo-Erza, Lucy and the three spirits who had shown up to help- Aries, Virgo and Capricorn- all screeched to a halt to stare at Lucy. Even Coco looked at the blonde bewildered.
"Princess..how exactly does one accidentally sleep with a person?" Virgo asked.
Lucy perked up more than happy to explain,"Oh so what happens is-".
Capricorn, the only one who seemed to remember the situation they were in, put a hand on his masters shoulder to stop her, "This is a story for another time lucy-sama, wouldn't you agree?" Pointing to Edo-Erza who was steadily creeping towards Lucy.
"Oh ya totally" Lucy agreed, resuming her previous actions of running and screaming.
Edo-Erza gave a small fist pump to herself when hearing she had a small chance of sleeping with the dumb blonde in front of her. She immediately followed Lucy's footsteps, chasing after her beloved.
"SOMEONE HELP ME ALREADY!" Coco cried.
"AAAHH, STOP STOP THAT HURTS!" Wendy screamed. Despite the screams of pain from Wendy, the guards seemed to have no problems dragging the tiny girl by her pigtails.
"Hey! YOU ASSHOLES LET WENDY GO OR I SWEAR WHEN I GET OUT OF HERE I'M GONNA BURN YOU ALL TO A CRISP!" Natsu yelled, as he watched them drag Wendy out of their shared jail cell.
"Now, now no need to try and play mr. hero. You're coming along as well" Hughes laughed, "We'll need you both if we want everlasting magic for Edolas".
Natsu couldn't help but stare in horror at the Edolas wizard words. What in the hell was this guy talking about? How the hell was he and Wendy gonna supply them with everlasting magic?
"You're probably wondering how you're gonna supply us with that everlasting magic I mentioned, but don't worry you'll find out soon enough" Hughes smirked.
In another side of the palace Byro the weird looking dude who probably needed to go outside more, was busy preparing the magic outlets that would suck the magic out of the dragon slayers they had captured. Finally, he would be useful and the rumors of him sleeping with the king so he could be part of the royal council would be laid to rest.
Meanwhile, Erza and Edo-Lucy continued to search for a way out of the dungeons with Loke and Aquarius trying to calm down the knight mage who despite saying she wasn't upset her dumb demon hadn't showed up to get her, was in laymen terms..upset.
"GET OUT OF MY WAY I'M LOOKING FOR SOMEONE!" Erza yelled.
"Bro, is she always like that?" Edo-Lucy whispered to a scared Loke and impressed Aquarius.
"Surprisingly yes, but more so than usual now that she's mated" Aquarius explained teasingly.
"She's feeling the effect of longing for her mate, isn't it adorable" Loke sighed.
Erza quickly turned around blushing, "I AM NOT LONGING FOR THAT IDIOT!"
Edo-Lucy shivered in fear at the prospect of the Edo version of this chick being like this. Scratch that she was exactly like that.
It took a while for Happy and Charle to finally escape the weird exceed land they were taken to but after realizing they had no intentions of letting their friends go they immediately left the other exceeds.
"What are we gonna do Charle, we have no idea where anyone is and this castle is huge?!" Happy cried.
Charle shook her head annoyed. It's not like she didn't know this, but being reminded of her failure to keep Wendy safe was rather irksome.
"Thank you he-cat, for the reminder of how much of a failure I am." Charle hissed.
"Putting aside how bad of a guardian I am, I think the best way for us to find everyone si to discreetly search the castle for everyone. It's the only way I can think we'll find every-"
"HELP, HELP I'M BEING CHASED BY A SEXY CHICK WHO WANTS TO BANG ME!"
"STOP RESISTING I KNOW YOU WANT ME TOO!" Edo Erza shouted.
"I AIN'T CONFIRMING OR DENYING THAT!" Lucy replied.
"I found Lucy" Happy snickered.
Charle couldn't help but slap her face, the dumb demon was such an idiot, but at least they had finally found one of their companions. Now they just had to find the rest of their group.
"Gee hee , so you're supposed to be me?"
"Hmm, you supposed to be me?"
"I look lame" Edo-Gajeel and earthland Gajeel said simultaneously.
