Chapter 6! I never believed I would come this far. Thank you all so much for reading this.

"-cy. Lucy, wake up." A deep, rich voice woke Lucy from her slumber. She opened her eyes to see a mop of midnight blue hair and gold orbs staring into hers.

She yelped in shock of the short proximity between them. She recognized the man as Corvus, the spirit who was supposed to train her.

"Sorry," she muttered. She embarrassed herself in front of the man again.

"It's okay," he chuckled. "You're late for dinner, by the way," he said with amusement laced in his voice. Lucy's eyes widened.

"What? How long?" She knew she shouldn't have closed her eyes. At least much time hadn't passed. It was still night.

"Only about 20 minutes. Grandeeney got worried so she set me to look for you. You were stargazing, I presume," he said with a smirk on his face. "And you fell asleep while you were at it."

Lucy really wanted to wipe the smirk off his face. 'Arrogant jerk.' "Well, you would fall asleep too if you had a stressful day," she said indignantly. Corvus's smirk only grew. This made Lucy even more annoyed. "Hmph."

"Well, we should get going before Grandeeney sends someone out to fetch the both of us," he announced. He stood from his crouch and offered his hand to the blonde, the latter accepting his hand hesitantly. He pulled her up with ease and led her to the door, not letting go of her hand.

Lucy carefully unwrapped her hand from the man's grasp effortlessly. She followed him through hallways and corridors until she heard loud chatter. Turning a corner, she saw an archway in the wall that showed a large dining table that fit about fifty people. Lucy realized all fifty people were dragons in their human forms.

Corvus made their presence known to the hall by shouting, "I found the mage," over all the chatter, which effectively silenced everyone. Lucy saw many males eye her up and down, and that was when she remembered what she was wearing. She felt her face heat up slightly. Her brown orbs searched for Grandeeney, trying to find some sort of familiarity in the large hall.

"Lucy, I am so glad you came!" The voice belonged to none other than the Sky Dragon.

"Yeah, sorry I'm late. I forgot about the time," the Celestial mage shyly said.

"More like she fell asleep while stargazing," Corvus mumbled under his breath, but since everyone in the hall had heightened senses, they heard what he said. The subject of his comment blushed in embarrassment when chuckles and giggles were heard around the hall.

"A true Celestial mage she is, then," Grandeeney stated.

"A Celestial mage?"

"No way!"

"She's pretty for one."

"I thought they died out."

Comments and questions rang out in the hall when they learned this. Igneel, who sat at the head of the table, silenced them all with a hand raised, and wisely, everyone quieted.

"I believe we are scaring the young woman. Leave her be for now. I am sure she will answer any questions in a bit, and you should all have the decency to not eye her like a starving wolf," Igneel spoke in a serious voice, completely different to the one she heard when she met him.

Grandeeney stood from her chair and walked to Lucy. "My dear, let's get you seated. I am sure you are hungry, especially after Acnologia's roar," the white-haired dragon claimed. Once again, whispers were heard after 'Acnologia' was said.

Grandeeney led the blonde to a seat in between Skiadrum and Weisslogia. Lucy pulled the chair and sat down, the Shadow Dragon to her right and the Light Dragon to her left. Out of nowhere, a plate piled with mouthwatering food appeared in front her.

"Woah," she gasped. She never heard of this magic before.

"You should start eating," Skiadrum told her. "In about fifteen minutes, the food will disappear and we will all talk business." Lucy nodded, then noticed Skiadrum and Weisslogia were both on their third plate.

'Dragon diets. Natsu and Gajeel eat about this much too. Even little Wendy. It's perfectly normal.' Lucy thought to herself. She looked at her food; mashed potatoes with gravy drizzled on it, vegetables of all sorts in a small heap, and juicy steak next to white rice. The blonde realized how hungry she was, and dug in.

She didn't eat as much as the dragons. Heck, she barely finished her first plate and she was full. The plate disappeared and some dessert poofed into existence. There was a slice of chocolate cake on the plate, white frosting smeared on the cake with a glazed strawberry placed right on top. Her well fed stomach forgotten, Lucy cut the cake and took a bite.

She moaned in delight, the taste of the cocoa on her tongue. A few minutes later, the plate was completely clean.

"Lucy, I think it is time we discuss your training schedule." Igneel's voice cut off everyone's conversations. The hall was so silent that they could hear a pin drop.

"Okay," Lucy said firmly, used to the attention because of the days when she was taught to be a Heartfilia. "What will the training be like," she questioned.

"Every morning you will wake up at seven, get ready, and you will have breakfast here. After breakfast, one of your Celestial Spirits will help you meditate for one hour. Then for the next two hours, you will physically train. Each day of the week will be different. On Sundays, you will be running. On Mondays, you will strengthen your upper body. Tuesdays will be your lower body. Wednesdays will be sharpening your senses. Thursdays will be hand-to-hand combat. Fridays will be a little different. The two hours will be spent learning strategizing from Master Mavis. Saturdays will be free day. You will only meditate and the rest is up to you on Saturdays," Igneel informed her. Lucy nodded, adding this to her memory.

He continued, "After the two hours, you will have a lunch break here for one hour. After lunch, you will go back out to the field and Corvus will help you enhance your Celestial magic. You will also learn how to wield a sword and dagger, and you will learn how to re-quip so you don't lose your keys or two weapons. After Corvus trains you, you will have dinner with us all at six, then an hour of free time. Then you will go to your room." Lucy frowned, realizing it was a tight schedule, especially for the next seven years.

As if reading her thoughts, Grandeeney reassured her by saying, "This will only be for the next six months. Once you have stabilized your magic, the schedule will be easier and simpler."

"Ok, good. I thought the next seven years would be strict," the blonde said lightly.

"Oh, that would have been horrible," Grandeeney agreed.

"Anyway, since today is Saturday, your training starts tomorrow," Igneel said. Then he and the rest of the dragons started talking about the Dragon Realm, how things have been lately, and the recent sightings of Acnologia. After half an hour, dinner was finished and the dragons walked out, heading to their rooms.

"Uh, Grandeeney," Lucy mumbled quietly, "I don't know how to get to my room." The Sky Dragon giggled and told Lucy to follow her. After a few minutes, they reached her room.

"Goodnight Lucy," the Sky Dragon cheerfully said.

"Goodnight, Grandeeney," Lucy responded. She walked in and shut the door behind her. Since she was already in her pajamas, she walked to the bed, pulled the blanket back, and snuggled under the sheets. The blanket was warm and the bed was soft. After the tiring day she had, Lucy fell asleep quickly.
