Hey guys, so sorry for the long wait. I was writing this on an airplane so I had a hard time trying to remember all of Lucy's spirits; I hope this fits your needs.

Lucy had to admit it; she was nervous and excited to eat with all of her celestial spirits.

Her entire attire had changed; she wore her hair in a high bun, her new clothes we beautiful as well. She wore a long light blue dress with frills and flowers. She felt like a princess. Do I disserve all of this.

When Lucy approached the party table, she noticed everyone was there, even the spirit king. Aquarius was sitting as close to Scorpio as possible, she was swooning as she stroked his muscles'. Gemi and Mini were mimicking Plue; shaking and dancing in their chairs. Cancer, Virgo, Taurus, Sagittarius, and Capricorn were all locked in a conversation, along with all of her other spirits.

"Lucy," at the end of the table sat Loke; Aries was to the right of him. He motioned to the empty seat to the other side for her to sit down.

Lucy walked over and took her seat. Once she sat down all the attention was on her.

"Welcome Lucy"

"Glad you're here"

"Nice body Lucy"

"Princess, you look beautiful"

"Punn-Punn"

Lucy couldn't help but blush. "Thank you guys so much. You have no idea how happy I am to be here with you guys." She glanced over all of the smiling faces that were sent her way.

"Thanks for the food," everyone dug in, some with more manners than others. Lucy took a bite of what she thought was a grape. It was amazing; she had never tasted anything like it before. I could get used to this.

Lucy couldn't help but notice that Loke was staring at her. She turned to see his glance locked on hers, with his head resting on his propped up fist.

"Whats wrong." Lucy asked.

"Nothing it's just, fascinated Lucy is the best"

Lucy could feel the blushes crawling over her face again. The taste of the food seemed to disappear.

"You look great in your dress too" he turned his attention back to his own plate of food.

"you know what I can't believe," Aquarius said, finally turning her attention away from her boyfriend, "why those forest mages were so easy to do away with."

Lucy stiffened at the mention of this. Why all a sudden. Underneath the table, Loke grabbed her hand and squeezed it gently. He was focused on what they had to say about her mission.

"Now that I think about it," Capricorn spoke up, "forest magic is used to balance the shapes of life and death, along with growth and time.:

"Lucy, the family you were escorting. It wasn't a 4 member group was it?"

Now that she looked back on it, there were only 4 members of the family, "yes it was."

"If they were the last ones left in the world," spirit king trailed on, "why would only Lucy go on that kind of quest by herself?"

"You would need more like a party of 15 mages on a mission like that." Scorpio was actually focused for once.

Lucy looked up from her previous depression, focused to the max.

"Our Lucy is strong but not that strong," Cancer spoke up "which dark guild territory did you escort them through –ebi"

"Sabertooth," Lucy was confused, what does this mean.

"Don't they have a thing against Fairy Tail."

"You think she was framed." She glanced up at Loke, "isn't there another celestial mage who is a member of that dark guild."

"Loke what are you saying?" he looked down at her beautiful face, troubled and confused was what it read, "Don't worry Luce," he squeezed tighter on her hand, "we will figure this out. Spirit king, we have to look into this."

"I agree with you Loke, if this job was a set up for our Lucy, then were going to fix it."

Was I really set up? It did seem like a very important quest now that I think about it. Lucy didn't know how to react to all this news. What should I do?

Loke stood, bringing Lucy up with him. "well I'll leave this matter to you then," he leaned in closer to Lucy "did you get enough to eat Luce?"

"Huh?"

"Well, we would love to stay but its past Lucy's bed time so we'll be leaving now"

"Wait Loke" he dragged her away from the table and all the confused stares that came their way.

"I saw your face Lucy." Loke sated when they were a good distance away. He no longer had to drag her along, she was curious to what he had to say. "I just didn't want you to worry about it anymore than you already are."

"But its my fault that were all involved in this, I shouldn't-"

"No Luce," he stopped and held her by her shoulders." I honestly believe that you were framed."

Was Lucy really framed? If so, who set her up? Find out in the next chapter…
