Anyway, part 2 of chapter 5. Enjoy.
Thankfully, things had turned back to normal, or as possibly normal as they could be with soldiers from another dimension who didn't know what the word smile meant.
Lucy was still so annoyed with Natsu though. Aquarius was going to MURDER her with an ax the second she was summoned. If Aquarius got mad for Lucy dropping her key, what would happen if her key was in magic fire, opened a portal, and then dropped on the ground? Lucy would be lucky if they could find anything left of her to bury.
But that got Lucy thinking. How would the spirits be effected after being doused in Fire Dragon Slayer magic? Would they be burned? Would they be perfectly fine? Would they just have some tans? Lucy started imagining her celestial spirits with deep tans. It was not a pretty image. Lucy prayed they would be okay.
Mirajane thankfully saved Lucy from her nightmares when she came up and tapped Lucy on the shoulder. "Lucy, I'm trying to go around and make our new guests seem more comfortable in this new environment. Would you mind going over and talking to Mikasa over there?"
"Mikasa?" Lucy looked in Mira's finger's direction. She was a fierce looking girl, of an average height and her hair was a darkish black color and came to her chin. Mikasa wore a red scarf in addition to her uniform. She sat with a frown on her face watching the Eren kid who was getting annoyed by Natsu in an attempt to start conversation.
Lucy walked over to Mikasa and introduced herself. "Hello, Mikasa. I'm Lucy."
Mikasa turned away from the bickering boys. She was serious looking. "Hello."
Lucy could feel the awkwardness seeping through her veins. "So, how are you?"
"I've been better." Mikasa's eyes dared Lucy to contradict.
Lucy swallowed and gave a nervous laugh.
After a few more minutes of silence, Mikasa burst through the wall.
"Here's the thing. We didn't ask to come here. Back home we're battling monstrosities that threaten to exterminate the human race. We live between stone walls and pray for another day of not getting eaten. You've never experienced that fear. So don't judge us when we don't run around laughing and sparring and getting drunk because that's not how we work. That's not how we ever will work. All we want to do is get home because at this current moment the titans could be attacking and the Scouting Regiment is one of humanities only hopes."
"Oh, I'm sorry. I didn't r-" Lucy's mouth dropped.
"Just use your keys to get us back home."
Lucy shook her head. "Mikasa, I'm sorry but that's not how my keys work. They aren't supposed to open portals. The portal was just some unpredictable result of combining my keys with Dragon Slayer Magic."
"Then what do your keys do? I thought magic was important here," Mikasa asserted. Fat load of good those keys were turning out to be.
"My keys open gates to the Celestial Spirit world. I summon spirits who help me. They're all different, like," Lucy pulled out a silver key. "PLUE!" Lucy yelled, as she turned the key in mid-air.
TITAN! Mikasa thought. She grabbed her 3-D maneuvering gear and was in the air in seconds, slicing.
But nothing was there.
Mikasa dropped to the ground, Lucy astonished. Below her stood a little white being. "Puh puh," he said.
Lucy nervous laughed again. "This is Plue, the celestial spirit of Canis Minor. The worst he can do is poke your ankles."
"Puh puh."
Mikasa felt her cheeks redden with embarrassment.
"Its okay. From what you've told me, I'd guess you'd always have your guard up," Lucy began.
Mikasa Ackerman did not care for Lucy Heartfilia.
Lucy realized something. This girl was extremely powerful.
"Hey, Mikasa," Lucy decided, "I'm kind of in a pinch with one of my Spirits, Aquarius. Would you mind-"
The door opened and Master Makorav, Erza, the short man who was bullying Gray earlier, and an official looking commander man with blond stepped out. "We've come to a conclusion."
"Hey, Mikasa," Lucy decided, "I'm kind of in a pinch with one of my Spirits, Aquarius. Would you mind-"
So now, not only was Lucy trying to embarrass her, but help her against one of her own Celestial Spirits? What part of Lucy Heartfilia was likeable right now?
Suddenly, a door slammed open. Commander Erwin, Captain Levi, the powerful woman with red hair, and the guild's master came out. Levi opened his mouth and the Survey Corps directed all their attention towards him. The Fairy Tail members started snickering. They had no sense of respect.
"We've come to a conclusion about what to do in our predicament. But first, Erza and I are getting lunch."
Hey guys- decided to stop Chapter 5 Part 2 here. Really tired but I don't like to keep you waiting. This means expect a Chapter 5 Part 3 as soon as I have time. Maybe later tonight, maybe in a decade with the way my life is going.
Also, did anybody notice the butterfly on Gray's shirt at the end of the Grand Magic Games Arc? Where did that come from? Why does Gray have a butterfly on his shirt? Sorry, had to mention this. I just don't get it. Gray doesn't seem like a butterfly kind of guy.
Hope you enjoyed!
