me:Thank you Levy now on with the story .

It was a few days after the incident and everything was almost back to normal. There was the usual fuss for Lucy waking up and for the first two days her team have been sleeping at her apartment until Lucy put her foot down, although that had no effect what so ever so she pleaded with erza which did the trick . Lucy decided it was time to get back into her routine and goes to the guild.

when she walks into the guild its bustling with the members usual antics gray ,nastsu and elfman fighting , cana having a drinking contest with wacabee and macro and the usual conversations around the guild . she walks towards the bar where Loke , Mira and Erza are deep in conversation .

" Hi guys "

Loke smile brightens immediately" Lucy I'm so happy to see you up and about I was just thinking of going on a mission for you. Your rent due isn't it? "

Lucy smiles at her spirits concern " That's fine Loke the guys already sorted that out. "

She turns to Ezra " To which I am going to pay you back for. " Ezra has a deadly look on her face so does Mira which may even be more scary because that look is usually reserved for the Master and Laxus.

" Why are you guys looking at me like that ." Lucy trembles in fear wondering what she could of done to got the 2 older girls so angry at her .

"Lucy."

Lucy starts to sweat " ."

Mira's expression becomes a pout ." How come you didn't tell us about you birthday. "

Lucy quickly becomes nervous playing with her hand and shuffling her feet well talking quickly " Well you see ireallydidn'twanttomakeafuss and its not that big of a deal."

Mira's eyes gleam with excitement" Of course it is its you 18th birthday we have to have a party ..A big one "

Ezra looks over at Mira and a soft smile appears on her face " Challenge excepted, we should work together on this one. " They both nod in agreement.

Both girls oblivious to how uncomfortable this is making Lucy .Lucy sighs and try's again " Look I know you to are just trying to do some thing nice .. "Mira gives Lucy a dark look again "Eeep" Lucy jumps behind Loke trying to escape from Mira's gaze.

"Lucy this is very important and what kind of people would we be if we didn't celebrate it with you." Turning her attetion to Ezra " But 4 weeks isn't a very long time to plan we should have had more notice"

"Agreed but it can't be helped now I'm sure together we can make it work."

The two older girls go about there conversation deciding how to go about this . Lucy peaking out from behind Loke who seems unaffected by the exchange does nothing "How did you even find out? " Lucy says glumly in defeat

The celestial lion she has been hiding behind now looks rather nervous. Lucy cheeks puff out in anger "Loke do you have something to tell me ?"

Lucy steps out to look her spirit dead on "Well you see Lucy I just came by to give you your present early and I was talking to Ezra and Mira and it just slipped out. " Loke chuckles nervously .

"It just slipped out!" gritting her teeth she breathed out and pouted trying to still look anger "present?" Loke smiled knowing that her anger had gone she wish's she could stay mad at the lion but Lucy temper was usually short lived and he new it.

"yes from all your spirits after the other day we decided it was a good idea to give it you early. "

Loke takes a small box from out his coat pocket and opened it there was a charm bracelet in it with small charm like keys. It was beautiful the chain was half silver half gold with 5 charms in total with different symbols at the top one had a whip on , another had a shield, there was one with 2 crossed axes,one with a sword and the last with 2 rings .

Lucy looks at the bracelet in amazement "Loke its beautiful"

Loke smiles broadly " oh its more than that hear let me put it on"

Loke picks the bracelet out of the box and puts it around Lucy wrist instead of clasping when he gets the chain about an inch apart the zipped together with magic Lucy was shocked and looked back to Loke who was grinning like a Cheshire cat." that was Aquariu's and Scorpio's idea its a spell so the bracelet can never be stolen off you using sand and sea. You see these keys are weapons from the celestial spirit world that you can call upon like your spirits by opening there gates also like your spirits they get stronger as you do and own have there little gifts. " Loke gently picks up the small key with 2 rings on

" This one the 2 rings make you hands hard its like being punched by a rock and they will block small attacks as long as you can move to block them. "

Next he points to the one with the sword " This sword can cut through magic if they are equal or lower range of magical power than you and its pretty nifty in a fight "

he then points to the 2 axes " these can also block small magical attacks if you can move them fast enough and if you through them you can call them back to your hand without having to re summon ."

now he points to the shield " this one can block large attack of someone equal power or if they are above your power range at least make them less powerful but it takes a long wile to recharge so you will only be able to us it one in battle "

Lucy looks at the amazing gift her spirits have given her and notice there's one charm Loke hasn't mentioned "And this one " Lucy points to the key with the symbol of a whip on Loke's eyes gleamed

" That's your whip we though since in the last fight you where disarmed this would be more practical. If you are disarmed you can just send it through the spirit world back to you it will take a little more power to use however it means no one can just take away your weapons .The only reason we haven't got you a magical belt or ring for your keys is that the magic is tricky and if your in trouble we may not be able to pass through are own gates to save you if the time calls for it . these will take a lot less magic that your spirit keys to open and since you can have three spirit gate open at once now we through it would be a good time "

Lucy eyes glistened with tears of happiness. Her spirits had put so much thought and love into this gift she jump forward and hugs Loke then steps back and puts her head down.

" But Loke apart from the shield and the whip I can't use the other weapons. I'm no good at hand to hand combat either "

She looks at her feet hoping Loke wasn't to disappointed

"That's where we come in" she looked over the to the 2 S-class mage's wondering how long they'ed been listening Ezra was smiling at her and Mira was nodding her head enthusiastically making a "hmm hmm" noise in agreement. She looked back to Loke who was still smiling 'Damn lion had this all planed out ' Lucy thought starting to feel fear again as she realized that Ezra will be training her she just hopes Mira can hold her back.

" As you probably guessed I will be training you with the axes and sword"

Mira looks me straight on still with that innocent little smile but there's a dark gleam in her eyes that makes Lucy quiver " I'll be training you in speed and stamina and hand to hand combat "

Loke pushes his glasses up his nose " and Capricorn with be giving instruction on power development its only going to be a 2 week training but the girls have ensured me that will suffice to get the basics and the rest you will learn through missions and self training but everyone has there own strengths and you will have to learn to play to them as you go. "

Lucy only just now notice that Mira isn't in her usual dress she wearing black shorts and a tight pink top "Well we don't technically start till tomorrow but I through today we' ed got for a run see what I have to work with "

Lucy looked down at her self spaying her hand she was wearing a short black skirt with a low cut blue tank top and boot ' not really running material ' " I'm not really dressed for it Mira can we start tomorrow"

Mira giggled Lucy relaxed a little till Mira turned into one of her Satan soul her voice turned dark " Run NOW!"

Lucy's body sparked with fear" .ma'am" As quickly as she could she turn towards the exit running. "I'LL GET YOU FOR THIS LOKE." She screamed as she left the guild as fast as her legs would take her.

Ezra sat back against the bar " Was that really necessary Mira"

Satan Mira looked Ezra up and down "You too"

The re quip mage showed no fear just crucked her eyebrow at the shape shifting mage and crossed her arms "I don't think so "

Satan miras expression darkened with challenge but before the girls could fight Loke came over.

"You should go after Lucy she's quite fast in short burst and is probably looking for somewhere to hide right now I think you scared her " Loke chuckles

Mira sighs pulls out her wings and fly's after the frighten girl.

Gray ,Natsu and Elfman are starred on in confusion at the scene that has just played out Natsu turned to the other boys

" what was that about "

Gray shrugged " Hell if I know "

"Not sure but it looked manly."

Shaking his head at Elfman "I'll ask Loke later now what was you saying flame brain "

Natsu now leaping towards Gray "What's that ice princess"

Lucy ran through the streets of magnolia to the forest her shoes begining to rub and her lungs where burning . Lucy stopped and put her hands on her knees to catch her breath .

Lucy senses someone coming at a speed she new she couldn't match ,so she reaches for her keys ready to fight. When Mira swoops down from the sky Lucy moves her hands away standing to shakes her head handing Lucy a bottle of water and changes back into her usual form .Going to sit on a large bolder and pats the stop next to her to indicate for Lucy to sit next to her .

Lucy hesitantly goes to sit in the stop Mira indicated . " Lucy do you know why Ezra and myself have agreed to train you ."

Lucy fidgets slightly and answers "Because I need help learning these new weapons " Lucy answers nervously

Mira sighs " Partly yes but your spirits could have helped you with that do you know why Ezra and me specifically are training you "

Lucy ponders this for a second and shakes her head no she doesn't. Mira continues "Its because we see great potential in you "

Lucy's eyes sparkle with emotion these two great mage's see something in her "Mira "Lucy whispers

Mira looks straight a head " But when it comes to personal training you a bit lazy and neglectful"

Lucy puts her head down in shame but doesn't interrupt " Don't get me wrong I know you pull your weight on missions but you could do so much more if you worked on your power and your other strengths or weaknesses as the case may be in between missions . Maybe you'll even qualify for the next S-class trials but you need to work at it .Me and Ezra will push you .. Hard. I'm not going to lie to you the next 2 weeks will be like boot camp but we can only push you so far if your not willing to push your self . Maybe you'll take some of the workouts we teach you and use them to keep up and advance you fitness after . But right now I need to know are you going to take this seriously push you self to your limits and break through to higher ones ? Your going to have to give it your all because me and Ezra both won't except any less ."

Lucy looked at Mira her gentle smile, Mira and Ezra had so much faith in her way more that she had in her self but there was no way she could let them down a wave of determination hit " I'll give you my all Mira, you and Ezra . together we'll smash those limits apart and reach the sky "

Mira's eyes brightened and smiled at the girl and nodded " That's what I wanted to hear. Now lets go home "

Lucy looked at her surrounding slightly confused " Errrrm Mira. do you by any chance know the way back. "

Mira giggled turned into Satan soul picked up Lucy pulled out her wings and carried her back to the guild .

Ok people thank you for reading my story so far and I hope you carry on reading now this is based a year after the magic games so technically Lucy is 18 and a half well or 26 or 19 see confusing so I decided to stick with 18 before I get lots of reviews about that.

till next time sapphirexfirefly
