"Wait… so what sort of magic do you use?" Wendy asked. She nibbled a piece of cake off of her fork slowly, enjoying it. She and Helen were sitting, talking and learning more about each other. Charle was nearby, enjoying a cup of tea and sitting near Happy, who was too busy eating a fish to notice her gaze.
Helen shifted in her seat and brushed a stray strand of her hair out of her face. She shrugged, and simply said "I don't know. The whole memory loss thing probably wiped its name out of my brain."
"Then we'll give it a new name! Show me," Wendy begged. Helen shook her head, and Wendy gave her an innocent and sad look. Helen sighed and something in her face showed that she would show her magic. Wendy cheered.
"Not in here, though, I really don't want to show the whole guild exactly how it works, you know?"
"Yeah. Let's go!"
Wendy grabbed Helen's hand and they ran to the East Forest, leaving Wendy's cake forgotten. Mirajane picked up the plate and tucked it behind the counter- just in case Wendy came back soon. She watched as Charle sighed and took off after the two girls and allowed herself to smile softly before heading back to work.
"Are we far enough yet?" Wendy asked some ten minutes later. Helen stopped running and collapsed on a rock. "Yeah, this should be good," she panted. "Just let me catch my breath."
The two sat down and looked at the city of Magnolia, which sperad out before them like the flower it was named for. The sun, high overhead, was framed by a deep blue sky. Wendy sighed.
"This is so pretty!" she cried happily. Charle, who had caught up with them fairly quickly, nodded her agreement.
"Ohhhh, look at the guild!" Helen said, pointing to the large building that stood out near the back of the city.
Charle pointed towards another stone building and said, "There's the Kardia Cathedral."
They went around pointing out various places they knew before Helen finally said "I'm ready to show you two. Might want to stand back a little though."
She turned into the other form, her hair's white locks catching the light. Wendy clapped her hands, and Charle nodded in appreciation. "Is that what your magic does?"
"Not even close," Helen said grinning. Charle immediately grabbed Wendy and flew to the top of a tree, where they could watch from safety. Helen reached for the magic and sent a column of white fire into the air. It crackled and hissed. Before it even had time to disappear another tongue of fire was shooting around. One after another, the fire strands flew around. And then they stopped.
Wendy and Charle leaned forward from their perch in the tree. Helen waved at them, and then sent a bright gold light flowing through the clearing. And then she moved to more specialized attacks.
"Hope Fire!" A silver trail of fire speared a tree through its heart. On and on the attacks went, until Helen bent over panting. The sun was getting closer to setting, and the tree's shadows elongated over Helen. Wendy cocked her head and studied Helen.
"You know you're glowing, right?"
"I am?" Helen looked down, and noticed she was glowing slightly. "Huh."
"I know what we should call your magic!" Wendy yelled suddenly. "Saint Magic!"
"Why that?" Helen asked. Wendy shrugged. "Is it a good name though?"
"Yeah…. Saint Magic…. It feels pretty accurate. Should we head back to the guild?"
"I think so. My cake's waiting. Race you!" Wendy took off towards the guild, Helen in fast pursuit.
