Chapter 3:
She would do this for... us?
(Lucy's POV)
I woke up in our hotel room bed- 'Wait... How did I end up here ?! Wasn't I training with my spirits in the forest ?!- Oh yeah I forgot that Natsu was spying on me and caught me when I fainted and then I passed out! I should go thank him but... What time is it?' I look over at the clock and read "11:30 PM" okay so now I need to find Nats- WAIT WHAT ?! 11:30 ?! WHY DIDN'T THAT IDIOT WAKE ME AT 11 ?! He's so dead!!!
I searched the whole room but I couldn't find him. Then an idea crossed my mind! 'He probably went to Matilda's since he knows everything now...' So I sprinted out to the end of the town and saw Natsu standing outside waiting for midnight to arrive observing the house... 'Oh I know what to do to get my revenge! Hehehe I can't wait to see his face!!' I tiptoed to him and once I was behind him I startled him.
"BOO!"
"AAA- Oh it's just you Luce... *sighs of relief*" I was laughing my head off!! HIS FACE WAS PRICELESS!!!
He looked back at me pouting "H-Hey! Don't laugh at me! You promised..."
I stopped laughing when I remembered our promise and blushed a bit as I remembered what Mira said... "S-Sorry. I forgot.."
"*sighs* It's okay... I forgive you *smiles*"
"Thank you but... WHY DIDN'T YOU WAKE ME UP YOU IDIOT ?!"
"Oh that.. You seemed tired after your training so I didn't wake you up... Oh and Loki came an hour ago and told me to give you back your keys. Here." He told me giving me my keys back. I thanked him and we started talking about random things.
Time skip : 12 O'clock
As we talked we were startled by the lights that appeared around the house. I wanted to look at my phone to make sure that it was midnight but was interrupted by a scream. 'Matilda...' I felt guilty for using her but I had to if we wanted to help everyone and I promised her that we will save them all and I intent to keep my promise!
5 minutes later the lights vanished. Natsu and I looked at each other and nodded before running to her apartment. Once we entered, we noticed that nothing has changed... Everything was in it's place... I looked round her living room, kitchen, everywhere... Until I went to her bedroom. I looked around and spotted the video lacrima and the paper that was left this time.
"NATSU! I FOUND WHAT WE WERE SEARCHING FOR! WE CAN GO!" I yelled so he could hear me since he was on the other side of the house.
Time skip : When we went to Mr. Mike's home
We entered the house and sat on the couch. "So did you see how it happens?"
"Yes we did sir. But we aren't here for that... I'm sorry for not telling you sooner but I asked Matilda to take a video of how it was happening in her side of the event and to throw the lacrima away before disappearing.. So here it is. I wanted to watch it with you because you have the right to know what is happening to your villagers..." I told him waiting for his answer.
"You alright old man?" asked the idiot next to me the client who had a shocked look on his face...
"Y-yes dear. I am... It's just that it's the first time someone actually wanted to share what they found out about their mission with me... Thank you..." he told us as tears of joy appeared in his eyes and he smiled. We nodded our heads both giving him a reassuring smiles.
2 minutes later I put the lacrima on a table and it started to show us what happened:
Matilda was in her bed waiting for midnight when lights appeared outside. She looked around her and found a dark figure coming her way. She screamed as loud as she could but was soon interrupted by the figure approaching her and putting his hand on her mouth as they disappeared but she let go of the lacrima just in time.
"So that's what would happen every night huh..." Said Mr. Mike in a sad voice but it suspiciouly felt... Fake...
"Yes... We should go to sleep now and think about what we're gonna do tomorrow morning. Let's go Luce!" Natsu said dragging me out of the house. We waved goodbye and left taking the lacrima with us.
"You saw it too right?" I asked him.
"Yes... That was suspicious... Why would he fake cry? And he was lying about the reason behind his shocked face... Just what is he hiding...?"
"Don't ask me but we should rest for now... We will talk about that tomorrow.." As I said that we entered our room and went to bed...
Time skip : in the morning
(Natsu's POV)
I woke up the sound of yelling in the living room:"NAAAAAAAAAAATSUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU!!! WAKE UP!! YOU NEED TO SEE THIS!! NOW !" Luce was yelling... I stood up and walked to the living room yawning, brushing my eyes still tired.
"This better be important for you to wake me from my precious sleep Luce..."
"Aye!" I heard Happy say as he too woke up from Luce's shouting.
"Yeah yeah whatever you say sleepy head. And yes it is important... Look at that..." I did as she said, Happy following behind and looked at video lacrima that was showing the kidnapper and at the photo in Lucy's hand... Oh I see.. She worked on the video to make the kidnapper be more recognizable and...
"No way..." I mumbled...
"See... He lied to us all along... And that would explain a lot of things too... But why would he do that...?"
"Who is that Lushie? And what are you talking about? " The poor exceed asked not knowing what in the world was happening
"Oh yeah I forgot you weren't with us yesterday... You see buddy... This is... "
I explained to Happy what happened yesterday and who is that man.
"IT'S REALLY HIM?!"
Lucy and I nodded our heads and started to create a plan. Luce worked on this time's paper and we found out that tonight's target is a 17 years old girl who looks almost like Lucy except for the eyes, hair color and cloth style. She had green eyes, brown hair and and would wear too revealing cloth, her name's Alex, while Luce has brown chocolate eyes, blond hair and wears normal outfits.
(A\N : yes in this story Lucy doesn't wear revealing outfits. She's too shy and doesn't like to wear revealing cloth so yeah... Now back to the story!)
This is so gonna be fun! I can't wait for tonight!
Time skip : To 10:00 PM
We prepared ourselves for the plan and everything is perfect! We talked with Alex about our plan and she accepted to do her part. We didn't talk about our plan to anyone else. Not even our client! It must be top secret. Now starts part 1 of the plan and it's one of Luce's parts. I think imma have a nose bleed tonight... But I won't regret anything I will see. Say whatever you want I don't care... And it's not my fault if she's hot... Too hot for my perverted eyes...
"S-STOP STARING YOU P-PERVERT!!" She said throwing a chair on my face.
"OW! THAT HURTS YOU KNOW?!"
"THEN STOP YOUR PERVERTED STARING!!!"
"Heh can't promise that Luce."
"WHY YOU-" And here we go again with throwing things again... But I don't mind it really. And this kept on going for an hour and half... We stopped after that and took our places for the plan.
Time skip : 11:58 PM
Hehe 2 more minutes before the real plan starts! I'm sure his face is gonna be priceless!! I can imagine it from now!! Pffft I don't know if I can hold my laughter but I gotta hold until we finish that job or I will mess it up and I don't wanna get on Luce's bad side... Geez she's scary when she wants to...
Suddenly the lights appeared. Here goes nothing... I climb to the window to watch the scene waiting for my part. I saw the kidnapper enter the room and 'Alex' opening her eyes. As she stood up and saw the man she screamed like how the other girls would but her scream was so loud that I had to cover my ears if I didn't want my eardrums to explode and so did the man. 'Alex' smirked and walked towards him and Loki appeared punching him in his guts as he fell on the ground and 'Alex' yelled "STAR DRESS: ARIES!" With that said she changed and pink clouds appeared blocking the man's view of seeing anything then again-"STAR DRESS: VIRGO!"-she yelled changing into her maid outfit. She dug in the floor and appeared underneath the kidnapper and he fell into the hole. She turned back to normal and then the pink clouds disappeared. I jumped in the apartment pushing the lump's switch to reveal Luce in Alex's place and me near the switch. The man was wide eyed but soon jumped up trying to run away but that's where my part starts. I snapped my fingers causing a fire all around the apartment blocking all the exits... You could see on his face that he was starting to panic and, as I thought, it was PRICELESS!!!
"H-How...How did you do that?! I s-saw you 2 outside 2 minutes ago!!!" I couldn't hold it anymore and I could see the same was for Luce because we both exploded in laughed 5 seconds later! He looked at us with a 'are they crazy or something?' look that made us laugh even more.
He sat on the floor waiting for us to calm down. After 5 minutes we finally stopped our laughter. Luce snapped her fingers and the doubles she created appeared next to her.
"Thanks to my Gemini's star dress I can double anything like that." As she said that snapped her fingers again and the doubles disappeared leaving the man wide eyed. By the way... He wears a mask.
He then shook his head and stood up sprinting to toward Lucy but I blocked him before he could even touch her and glared at him for trying to touch my Luce- wait... MY Luce?! WHAT IS HAPPENING TO ME?!
I push that thought away for now and focused on our opponent. He was wide eyed again.
"How did you get here so fast and why didn't the girl even flinch when I tried to attack her?!" He asked. I smirked as I answered.
"When it comes to my comrades I would do anything to protect them and this isn't even 1% of what I would do! As for your second question... Luce?" I looked at her smiling as she smiled back answering his question.
"You see I have faith in my nakamas and I was sure that Natsu would be here to block you. I may have just joined the guild yesterday but I'm sure of something: Everyone in the Fairy Tail guild is family and we trust each other with our lives! We could sacrifice ourselves for each other! That's the Fairy Tail way to do things... Our way to do things..." She smiled at me and I returned the gesture pushing the man away.
I walked next to Luce putting my arm around her shoulder as our smiles grew bigger by the second. We looked at the man that was smiling "So shouldn't you surrender now... Mr. Mike?" Asked Lucy as his smiling face turned into a shocked one as he took his mask off.
"H-How did you-"
"Were you really doubting the Fairy Tail guild? Were you really underestimating us? You know we're not the number one guild in Fiore for nothing right?" I asked raising an eyebrow at him.
"Uh... Yeah... You're right... *sighs* I was really stupid to think that you would of failed *chuckles* really stupid! Wait when I got notified that you guys were coming they told me that you were 3... So where is the third one ?"
"Ah... That must be Happy... He's just sleeping in our hotel room. He always falls asleep after eating some fish so... He ended up falling asleep 3 hours ago *laughs*" I told him as he just nodded but Lucy interrupted us by asking him a question.
"So why were you kidnapping your village's girls? And why would you send a request to help you find who did it?" I wanted to know the answer as well so I stopped laughing and looked at Mr. Mike who was smiling from ear to ear.
'What is he smiling about now?' Both of us had a confused face on...
"Ah that *chuckles (again)* well you see-"
"That wasn't a real request..."
Our eyes widened and we blinked a couple times.
"W-Whaaaaa?! What do you mean 'that wasn't a real request' ?! Then what is it ?!" We asked in unison still blinking.
"*laughs* That 'request' was actually a guild test. We gave one to all the guilds in Fiore and all of them failed it but I am proud to say that... THE FAIRY TAIL GUILD IS THE FIRST GUILD TO PASS IT! CONGRATULATIONS!!" The old man said laughing and the 'kidnapped' girl came in clapping they're hands giggling while we were still prepossessing what had just happened.
Then Luce's face started to turn red of anger..
"Oh-Oh... You're in big trouble Mr. Mike... Big trouble..."
I took some steps back hoping to be in a safe distance from Luce because I didn't want to die today...
"What did you say old man? I didn't hear you quite well." Lucy said when I started seeing sir Mike sweat drop as he saw Luce glowing and changing into one of her star dresses... Sagittarius... "You have 3 seconds to run or believe me you're gonna wish you never saw my face. 1..."
"C-Calm down miss Lucy... W-We can work this out without fighting. R-Right...?"
"Oh hear me out when I say it doesn't work that way when Luce is angry." I told him hoping he understood that he should run.
"2..." Crap Luce is gonna blow the apartment any second now...
"P-Please Miss Lucy let us at least explain the situation.." Geez didn't he understand that he should run already?!
"3-" She was interrupted by the 'client' just in time.
"Y-You will still get the money I promise!! Just d-don't kill us!!" He begged her...
Luce turned to the window and looked back at the all villagers that came in 2 seconds ago and the old man that were sweat dropping then back at the opened window. She took her bow and aimed at a mountain in the far away distance and let go of it and in 1 seconds the WHOLE MOUNTAIN exploded leaving nothing but smoke behind it... She glanced and the gasping people that were here "Next time that you do such a thing that's your head old man. UNDERSTOOD?!" She said with a glare before leaving everyone speechless to the hotel.
"You better take her advice gramps. I knew that she was scary and that she was strong but I never expected her to be THAT scary... Geez and to think that she exploded that mountain with not even 1% of her powers... She should be an S-class wizard... That's for sure.. Heck she could even beat Erza if she wanted to... Better not get on her bad side... Oh well I gotta go catch up with her now... Have a good night rest everyone... Especially after that..." I said mumbling the last part and walked back to the hotel.
Once I stepped in I saw Luce asleep on the bed as if nothing happened... 'How am I supposed to deal with her without getting killed..?' I really don't know the answer but oh well.. At least no one died tonight.
I walked to the bed and laid down next to her. 'I guess I should get some rest for now...' as I thought that I fell asleep but I hugged her at the time pulling her closer to me. She so warm and soft... I wish that we could stay like that forever.
Time skip : The next morning
(Lucy's POV)
I opened and closed my eyes slowly 3 times and heard the birds singing they's beautiful melody... I felt warm and the bed was more comfortable than usual 'Morning world.' I tried to get up but something held me back I looked at myself and started to blush : Natsu was hugging me in his sleep. "Don't... leave... stay... with... me..." I could hear him say as he tightened his grip on me pulling me closer to him. OMFG!! THERE ARE ONLY 2 INCHS BETWEEN US UNTIL OUR LIPS COLLIDE INTO EACH OTHER!!!
"WAKE UP YOU IDIOT!! WAKE UP WAKE UP WAKE UP!!!" I said trying to get out of his grip but he ended up pulling me closer to him and he his laid his head on my shoulder then on my neck sniffing my scent...
"Why are you so loud in the morning Luce...?" He asked slowly waking up.
2 minutes later he finally realized what he was doing and blushed as well "S-Sorry I didn't mean to do that." He apologized but not moving at all.
"I-It's okay but c-can you let go of me now p-please..?" I asked hoping he would let go.
"O-Oh y-yeah. *lets go* S-sorry about that.."
"I-It's f-fine. A-Are you hungry? I will go make b-breakfast.." And with that said I went to the kitchen to prepare breakfast for the 3 of us even if the exceed was still asleep.
"He liiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiikes you~" Never mind... He's awake...
"Oh shut it you stupid cat!" I said running after him in the whole kitchen.
Time skip : When we were going to get the 'reward'
As we were walking to Mr. Mike's house, Alex came to us running with something in her hand. "LUCY! NATSU! I HAVE SOMETHING FOR YOU 2 !" We waited for her to arrive and catch her breath. 10 seconds later pinky here broke the silence.
"Hey what's up Alex? And what is it that you have for us ?"
"I'm good thx! And I wanted you to have this. It's a video I took of yesterday's night. From 12 O'clock to when Natsu left! It's all in this lacrima. I wanted you to have it." She told us as she smiled handing me the lacrima.
"Oh really? Thank you so very much Alex!" I thanked with a visible grin on my face.
"Your welcome *giggles* welp I gotta go! Bye!" And with that said she run back to god knows where.
Time skip : When we got to the house
We chatted a bit with the old man until I had enough of this... There was this question that kept on bugging me so I asked it. "Say Mr. Mike... That 'test' of yours... it wasn't just to know if we could do the job or not... ain't I right?"
The 3 of them looked at me shocked but then Mike laughed "Yes dear you're right as usual. It wasn't only about the strength of the guild or the intelligence but about how they treat each other, what they considered each other, they're team work, they're faith in each other ... and what they would do if the other was in danger. You succeeded in all of these... the strength, the intelligence, the family treating and considering, team work, the faith and the sacrifice if necessary. I could see it all in the both of you when you were working. All of the other guilds failed because they wouldn't do the last 5 : the family considering and treating, the team work, they're faith in they're teammates and they wouldn't even think of helping the other when needed. That's what failed them."
Natsu, Happy and I looked at each other, smiled then looked back at Mr.Mike who also was smiling and we all nodded our heads.
Time skip : When we got back to the guild (Natsu slept on Lucy's lap the whole train ride and Happy kept on teasing her about their feelings)
(Natsu's POV)
We walked to the guild hall's doors and stood a second admiring it before entering. Of course I kicked the door open yelling "WE'RE BACK !!"
"AYE!" Happy yelled after me.
"Hi there everyone! How have you been these 2 days?" Luce asked smiling at the rest of the guild.
All of them were shocked. They had the 'How the hell did they come back so fast?!' face on. There was silence for 10 seconds before me and the rest of the team exploded in laughter! While we were laughing our head off we heard a little giggle from the back of the guild.
"Welcome back you 3! So how was that mission?" You guessed... That was Mira welcoming us with her usual bright smile one.
"Well... You see..." Luce started rubbing the back of her neck awkwardly.
"DON'T YOU DARE TELL US THAT YOU FAILED THE MISSION!!" Everyone yelled waiting for an answer. We laughed again until I started talking again.
"You guys were really thinking that we would fail ?!*laugh* Wow you guys are hopeless!"
"Then what is it ? What happened ?" Mira, Erza and freezer face asked us.
"Let's just show you guys what happened... " Luce suggested pulling the video lacrima out of her pocket. She puts it on a table in the middle of the guild hall and the video started.
Time skip : After they watched the video ( The video also shows what Natsu said at the end )
Everyone was shocked... About the facts that :
1. It was a guild test.
2. Lucy's so strong.
3. That she's SUPPER scary.
And 4. That I dared to say something about Erza and Lucy.
"To be strong you sure are Lucy. And how did you know that she didn't use 1% of her powers Natsu?" Asked Erza...
"Thank you Erza and he knew that because he um... How can I say that... Was spying on me while I was training with my spirits... hehe..." Luce answered shyly...
'Cute...' That's what I was thinking at that moment. But then I heard Luce curse.
"F*ck! I completely forgot about yesterday's training! Aquarius is gonna kill me that's for sure!! I bet I will have to do yesterday's 2 hours plus today's for my punishment... Well at least I hope that that's all I will have to do *sighs* hey Natsu what time is it ?" She asked looking at me. I looked at my phone than answered her.
"It 6:10 PM right now."
"Holy sh*t !! I'M ALREADY LATE!! GOTTA GO !! BYE !" And with that she ran out the guild to the forest.
"Ouchie... I don't wanna be in Lucy's place right now... That mermaid is gonna kill her for being late..." I told myself.
"Hey I wanna watch her train! Can we go and watch her Natzu?" Happy asked.
"Yeah actually we wanna watch her too." Said Mira as Wendy, Erza and Elsa came from behind nodding.
"Then what are you guys waiting for? Let's go!" I said running to the forest with the 5 following me.
When arrived at the forest we saw Luce standing there taking a deep breath. We hide behind a bush watching her take out her 10 keys and opened all of them.
"OPEN" All of her keys started to turn around her as they both started glowing (Lucy and the keys) "MY 10 GOLDEN KEYS". And all of her spirits appeared bowing down.
"You called your highness ?" 9 of them said. As you may have guessed the last one (that was Aquarius) was pissed off. Yikes...
"LUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" She yelled on top of her lung causing all of us to close our ears.
"To be in trouble she surly is... " Whispered the stripper.
"Told ya"
"H-Hi there Aquarius... H-How have you been...?" Luce asked of course sweat dropping.
"HOW MANY TIME DO I HAVE TO TELL YOU BE ON TIME TO YOUR TRAINING?! YOU EVEN MISSED YESTERDAY'S ONE!! " She yelled yelled.
"S-Sorry about that... I had a job to do a-and it took all my time and I just came back..."
"I DON'T CARE!! FOR YOUR PUNISHMENT YOU WILL HAVE TO FIGHT ALL OF US AT ONCE WITH NO KEYS!!"
"*smirks* Oh really? You sure that's a punishment? Because for me that's just a little game. Do you have anything else to propose as a punishment?"
"Why you-"
"Calm down Aquarius. You know she's right. Stop arguing."
"Thx Capricorn. So what do we have for today's training?"
"You see Lucy we have nothing to teach you anymore... So we're gonna have someone else do the job for us until you master they're powers."
"Huh... I never thought that it would be like that Gemini. But thanks for the info. So who's my teacher now?"
"That would be the 3 of us." Said 3 voices in the dark as Lucy's eyes widened.
"N-No way... Libra and Pisces... But h-how... Shouldn't you 2 be with your wizard ?!"
"Heh yeah that's if we had a wizard yes but we don't have one so it's a no. But we will have one soon." Said the lady. Libra if I'm correct.
"Huh? And who is your new wizard..?"
"Isn't it obvious miss Lucy? It's you of course! You are the strongest celestial wizard ever and plus you're the last one as well." The 2 fishies told her.
"Hehe yeah that question was stupid. Sorry about that." When she said that 2 keys appeared in front of her and she took them.
"These are our keys Lucy. Take them. We will make our contracts after your training. Now let's get started!"
"Yes ma'am !So what do I do first?!"
"Take it easy dear! So first of you will have to learn to use our star dresses. Start with mine would you?"
"Aye-aye ma'am! So first I gotta feel my spirit's energy...*takes a deep breath closing her eyes* Then I have to build it inside of me *breaths out and starts glowing*"
"Wow she's was pretty fast to do it.." Said the lady.
"Yeah... I thought it would take at least a week for her to master one of the 2 star dresses... Guess we underestimated her... She really is the strongest celestial mage ever..." The fishes continued.
"STAR DRESS: LIBRA!" And then she changed.
"Sh-She's awesome..." Whispered Wendy.
"Yes... yes she is..." mumbled Erza.
"I DID IT, I DID IT ! YAY !*jumps up and down* So what now?" She stopped jumping and looked at her new trainers.
"Well done miss Lucy. Now try changing into mine."
"Alright! So here goes nothing... STAR DRESS: PISCES!" Again she changed.
"Awesome miss Lucy!! You did it!"
"Hehe thanks Pisces. Now what?"
"Well since you learned how to transform into our star dresses the power should come by it's own so I don't think that there is anything else we can teach you..."
"You're wrong Libra... *turns back to normal*"
"Huh... What does that mean princess? You learned all our star dresses and the powers come by it's own so there is nothing left.."
"Again you're wrong Virgo... There are still 5 things I didn't learn.."
"And these would be..?"
"You see Sagittarius... You still didn't teach me how to summon the celestial spirit king, his star dress and...-"
"NO LUCY ! DON'T YOU EVEN DARE THINK ABOUT IT! NO NO NO AND NO !! WE WON'T TEACH YOU THIS! NEVER!"
"And why not Aquarius? I want to learn every single spell there is. I want to learn all of them! Why won't you let me learn these 3?!"
"Miss Luuuuucy~ these spells are the most dangerous spell in the wooooorld~ We can't let you leeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaarn~ them! Almost all the celestial wizards died because of theeeeeeeeeese~ spells! We caaaaan't~ let you die as well!"
"BUT THESE SPELLS COULD SAVE THE WORLD WHEN NEEDED!! I MUST LEARN THEM TO PROTECT MY FAMILY!! I DON'T CARE IF IT KILLS ME!! AND EVEN IF THEY ARE THE MOST DANGEROUS SPELLS IN THE WORLD THEY ARE THE MOST POWERFUL ONES AS WELL!! Besides if I'm correct the wizards passed away because they were too weak and used it when they knew that they wouldn't be able to make it and they didn't even unlock the star dresses. Wouldn't that make it easier for me to cast it without passing away?!"
"Y-Yes but-"
"I'm sorry Aries but I won't take 'no' as an answer!"
But then a light appeared behind the spirits and all they're eyes widened and they all knelt down but Luce.
"It's nice to see you again... Old friend..."
"Nice to see you too Celestial spirit king..."
"What's happening here old friend?"
"You see my king princess here wants to learn the forbidden spells and we tried to convince her not to but you see she's... Too stubborn to accept 'no' as an answer..."
"Yeah so what Loki?! Got a problem with the fact that I wanna protect my family?!"
"N-No it's not tha-"
"*laughs* Don't worry everyone... She can learn the forbidden spells... After all she is the strongest celestial wizard ever and I calculated her possibilities of dying in the process and they're of 5%! That's of course if she didn't use any of her powers before doing so because if she did it would be another percentage. So here are the percentage of all her states:
She used (Risks of dying) :
0% (5%)
5% (10%)
10% (15%)
15% (20%)
20% (25%)
25% (30%)
30% (35%)
35% (40%)
40% (45%)
45% (50%)
50% (55%)
55% (60%)
60% (65%)
65% (70%)
70% (75%)
75% (80%)
80% (85%)
85% (90%)
90% (95%)
95% (100%)
100% (100%)
So she's most likely safe as long as sh doesn't push herself too much! Have a good night old friend"
"Thank you and have a good night as well *smiles as he disappears* See even the Celestial spirit king accepted! Now you can teach them to me !!"
"*sighs* Alright then... So we're gonna start by teaching you how to summon the Celestial spirit king, then you will have to learn to use his star dress before learning the 3 spells."
"YAY! THANK YOU EVERYONE!" Lucy thanked them with one big of a grin.
"She's gonna... learn the most... dangerous spells ... in the world... J-Just to p-protect... Us...?" I whispered trembling at the thought of Lucy dying to protect us... "W-Why would she do that..?"
"She's...ready to give her...life for us but... Why...?" It was Mira's turn to ask this time...
"She... begged for them to... Let her use forbidden spells... for us...?" Erza mumbled..
"Why would she do this... Why would she...?" Gray questioned us...
"L-Lucy-san... Would sacrifice herself... for us..?" Wendy started crying as well...
"L-Lushie... But... Why...?" And here was Happy's turn..
"She's doing this to protect us... Her family but... What happened to her for her to do such a thing..? What's... forcing her to do it..? Or.. Is she doing this on her own will..?" I asked them hoping to have an answer but all I got was tears streaming down all of our faces... But I don't blame them... After all... We all love her and don't want to lose her... Not now... Not in a million years...
But then I heard her say something I never thought I would hear.
"I swear on the name of every spirit here that I will only use the forbidden spell when I see necessary and I swear to protect my family with my life. That's a promise I will never break"
"What does she think she's doing ?! We don't want her to protect us with her life!" Gray whisper-yelled... But he's right...
"Lucy-san don't do that... please..." Wendy mumbled still crying.
"Lushie... Don't..." Happy begged with a low voice.
"Lucy\Luce..." The rest of us (Erza, Mira and I) said under our breath...
"Alright then... " All of the heads turned to me.
"Since she made a promise to protect us with her life let's do a promise ourselves as well..." We wiped our tears and smiled saying our promise...
"The promise to always stay by her side and protect her with ours!" We all said in unison smiling and giggling.
"Let's not cry for her but be proud of her because she is real family. And besides she isn't dead yet we're crying as if she is." I said laughing at myself for crying for something that didn't even happen along with the others...
'I will keep my promise... That's for sure... I won't break it... That's another promise I'll make to myself! To not break the promise of protecting Lucy!'
