- Celestial Hime
Lucy's eyes started to water, "Yes" She cried out as she ran up to hug her counterpart. "To win and save our counterparts!" Counterpart Erza yelled as she held up her sword. "YEAAA!" Counterpart Fairy Tail cheered as they fist pumped the air. The two blondes separated, "I'm all fired up" Counterpart Lucy and Natsu cheered as they were engulfed by their burning red flames. "Good luck mummy!" The two children cheered together.
Counter Lucy smiled at her two children, "We'll come back soon. Mamma will defeat those bad guys alright. Be good children and stay here with Aunty Winter" Counter Lucy said nicely as she bent down to hug her two children. "We will~" They chimed cutely. "They're soo adorable" Lucy adored as she pinched one of their cheeks.
"Lucy..." Counter Lucy called out which made Lucy flinch. "Hai?" She questioned while she stood up, dusting off the invisible dust from her clothes. "Let me ask you straightly. -" Counterpart Lucy took a deep breath and breathed out. Dragons slowly landed around her as they waited for her questioned to be spilled out. "- Do you need the support from my dragons?"
Lucy looked over to her demon who looked back at her with concern and concentration, he slowly nodded his head, not because that he wanted to see his counterpart father, he wanted to protect Lucy's world from devastation. The blonde closed her eyes and breathed in before opening her eyes to look at the gazes of participation and co-operation. The blonde nodded, "The more help - The better" She replied in confidence which everyone cheered to. "Do you need my magic?" Counterpart Lucy asked. Lucy shook her head, "From my previous wish...I have all of the needed" She answered with a gentle smile.
Lucy's counterpart nodded and slowly turned around to her friends, nakama and dragons, "It is time! We shall protect Lucy's world from the darkness like what we've done years ago!" She yelled out. "Wait!" A voice cried out. All eyes laid attention over to a certain Water Dragon, "Aquanta?" Igneel questioned. "Should we call for 'him'?" Aquanta asked. Counterpart Lucy shook her head, "He's busy. We shall use our own power to fight" She said sternly before turning her attention over to one of her dragons, nodding her head. "Open! Gate to Lucy's world!" The dragon roared as its wings spread wide open. "Everyone get into position!" Counterpart Natsu shouted, pointing onto the dragons who lowered its neck to allow passage. Quickly, the guild members came climbing onto a dragons back and sat down, securing themselves for the quick ride. Lucy's and Natsu's counterpart helped them get onto Igneel's back and soon every dragons wings spread out.
The two children watched in awe before looking over to their aunty who gave them a special privilege, "READY? GO! GO! GO!" The children screamed in excitement before watching the dragons fly into the sky and into the portal. As they flew into the portal, Counterpart Lucy called out one of her special spells which allowed her to have wings. Quickly she took off and flew in front of the herd of dragons, "Each guild member will have a dragon each. Laxus, Wendy, Gajeel, Gray, Juvia, Erza and additional guilds, Sting and Rogue! Go to your teaming dragons! All of you! Go find your counterparts and help them!" She yelled out in commando form. They all nodded their heads while the called out groups of people jumped around.
The exit of the portal started to glow and the dragons gave out a deafening roar before flying out of the portal, "LET'S GO!" Counterpart Natsu cheered.
"I can't breathe..." Erza coughed out blood as she struggled to get up. She stabbed one of her swords into the ground to support her as she got up. "Erza...Something's in the sky" Jellal pointed out, pointing into the sky where a portal was opening up and a herd/army of dragons came flying out. Bisca and Alzack ran off to kill any other demons who appeared in an another area. "What's going on?" She questioned.
The bull-headed demon cackled before swinging down his blade which happened while the two were off-guard. The two turned their heads around and were about to defend themselves but realized it was too late. Soon, a mighty roar was heard before something happened.
"I am the warrior of justice,
Hear out my faithful call and come to my aid,
Come forth, Dance of the Warrior!"
A familiar voice called out and without anyone knowing, a whole army of swords came darting down onto the ground - Missing the two injured people from any further harm. Erza's eyes widened in shock when she saw the hair of the colour scarlet and the armour of silver metal. The girl danced around, grabbing a new sword after each slice and slash given to the demon. When almost all swords were done, it shattered into fine pieces which slowly flew into the sky. The girl turned around. Her scarlet hair dancing in the wind as she turned. It was no other than Erza Titania Scarlet - Her own counterpart from another world. "Am I late?" She smiled at Erza and Jellal. "W-W-What's going on?" Erza questioned as she tried to compose her confusion but couldn't. 'Is this some type of prank?!'. "I'm your counterpart. Who knew that we're meeting under such troubles?" Counterpart Erza replied firmly.
"Titan!" Counterpart Erza called out as she looked into the sky. The two confused mages looked up to see a huge silver dragon flapping its wings above them, "Sure thing Titania!" The dragon responded before flying high into the air, "Weaponry Dragon's Roar!" The metallic dragon roared as it attacked the demon with a powerful silver beam of magic. CE (Counterpart Erza) came running towards the demon, "Circle Sword! Dance my Blades!" She shouted out as her swords which were circling behind her soon came flying over to the demon, stabbing it many times in its hidden heart. The demon grunted and it fell onto its hands and knees, moaning at the pain of the sharp swords that continued stabbing its heart.
CE quickly helped Erza and Jellal onto Titan who was the dragon of weapons, "Now Titan!" She shouted. "Roger! Weaponry Dragon's Faithful Combo!" He yelled out before rows of guns, swords, bombs and archery sets appeared. "Go!" He yelled out, his wings flapping down in one swift movement which sent the first row of guns shooting at the demon, followed by swords which flew down, slicing the demon in its path, bombs flying down and exploding while the last row, aimed its arrows in the air, shooting it which then multiplied into different sizes and shapes.
"He's done" Titan announced as he examined the dead demon, "Off to the next one" CE instructed. The Mercenary Dragon accepted her instructions and flew somewhere in the distance.
"If you're here then does that mean..." Erza questioned. "Hai...Every single counterpart is here right now" CE replied bluntly while she kept an eye around her surroundings as they soared through the sky. 'I hope that we'll be able to save this world. Their problem here is nothing compared to ours. One advantage that they have is their lack of magic. If we can bring magic to this world...' CE thought to herself as she looked back too see the terrible war happening behind and in front of her.
"Ice-Make: Bow! Ice-Make: Arrows!" Gray grunted as he forced his magic out from his palms. "Water Slicer!" Juvia cried out as she attacked the blob which continued to eat their magic. "What is this thing?!" Juvia yelled out in frustration in hopes of releasing her anger. The 'Blob' demon bounced up and down before opening its mouth which started shooting back their magic straight at them, "Ice-Make: Shield!" Gray shouted in time, blocking away the repelling magic.
"Ice-Make: Rose Garden!" A voice yelled out. "Kyyyaaa! Two Gray-sama's!" Juvia cried out with hearts in her eyes. "This is Juvia's Gray-sama!" Another voice yelled out. The two mages looked up to see two figures jumping down from a dragon, "A d-d-dragon?!" Gray stuttered as he eyed the dragon suspiciously. "To think that my counterpart looks exactly the same as me" The familiar voice stated which made the two turn their heads down to see a replica of himself standing in front of them. "Yes and it seems that this Gray-sama also strips like Juvia's Gray-sama" The other voice stated out. Juvia turned around to see the same situation with her, "Juvia doesn't understand...What's happening?" Juvia questioned. "We're here to help your world" Counter Juvia stated as she walked over to Counter Gray. "Does that mean...". "Yes. We're your counterparts from another world" CJ (Counterpart Juvia) stated innocently. "Ice Dragon's Roar!" The crystal blue dragon bellowed as she gave out a powerful ice roar which shattered the thorny rose cage that CG (Counterpart Gray) countered when they first arrived.
"Should Juvia heal Gray-sama?" Juvia asked in a worried state in mind. "No. We can't waste anymore life years" Gray replied back hesitantly. "No. You must heal yourself" CG stated. "Just let Gray do what he wants. Juvia understands Gray's feelings. Gray wants to protect this world as much as we did when Lucy was in danger" CJ replied back as she placed her hand on CG's bare shoulder. "If you state it that way..." He reasoned as he looked away, somehow hiding his blush.
"What world are you from?" Gray asked as he slowed down his breathing into a normal pace. "Well...We call it Earth World. Our other counterparts are called Edolas. We actually don't know what you or what we would call our world if you were to call your world Earth World" CG explained in confusion. "We actually don't know since we're almost the same person" CJ stated as she gently smiled over to Juvia. She slowly skidded over to Juvia slyly, "So...Have you seen Gray naked yet?" She whispered over which made the poor demon blush. "That is absurd! Juvia will never do that to Gray-sama...Though...Juvia would like to see it though..." Juvia shouted back before lowering her tone then playing with her delicately painted nails and fingers which made Counterpart Juvia chuckle. "Juvia's soo kawaii in this world~" CJ teased.
"Gray...Juvia. There's more ahead" The Ice Dragon stated as she looked over the horizon to see more demons growing from the ground. "Crystalline (Crystal-leen). Head over there and help around as much as possible in the sky. We'll handle things on the ground" CG replied back. The Ice Dragon nodded before soaring through the sky and into the distance. Her roars and screams of offensive attacks could be heard as she hunted down the flying demons in the night sky which had the tint of red madness that looked like flames.
"Let's go" CJ cried out as they started to run. "How come there's dragons?" Juvia started to questioned, running beside her counterpart to listen to each others conversation clearly. "Well...Love- Lucy is actually the Dragon Queen of our world. She lives in the Dragon and Human/Earth World. Lucy recently got a feeling. No. Vision of something devastating happening in this world. We were then called and gathered over to the Dragon World to discuss and that's when your Lucy came over to our world - In search for help and support from our world" CJ explained briefly. Juvia looked confused, her thoughts were interrupted by a loud groan from her human, "Gray-sama?" She cried out before stopping. "He's losing blood..." CG stated as he looked at the deep cut on Gray's hip. "Pffft. I'm fine if I do this" Gray said as he placed his hand on the swelling injury, wincing in pain before casting some ice on it which froze the injury, stopping the blood from flowing out from his body.
Juvia looked at him with concern before allowing her demonic bat wings and tail pop out, she flew over to Gray and picked him up using his underarms, "Juvia will support Gray-sama by doing this. Can Gray-sama still go into battling stance?" She asked innocently. "Yea.. Thanks" He thanked before looking ahead. The young demon gave out a relieving sigh before flying behind the two mages ahead of them.
"Water Explosion!" CJ shouted as she swung her two arms over each other, throwing out water seed-shaped bullets towards a growing demon at the front. It soon exploded with a snap of a finger in command. "Ice-Make: Ice Bringer" CG called out, grabbing onto two purely ice sculptured swords, slicing the weak-l leveled demons in a formation of an 'x'. "We can keep on doing this!" CG shouted out, feelings confident. "Just wait till you see the higher ups" Gray muttered under his breath. 'They're even worse than these ones' He thought to himself.
"KYAA!" CJ cried out as she was being lifted into the air after what CG had just said. "Aww. Did I surprise you?" A man in a hooded cloak asked in a teasing manner. "Told ya" Gray stated as he shrugged his shoulder while Juvia carefully landed, trying not to get her beloved human to get injured again. "Ice-Make: Lance!" Gray yelled out, thrusting his magic out to the demon/sinner.
"Mira-nee. What are we going to about this?"
"We'll help them when they need help. I'm sure that they'll be able to fight against the demon"
"Are you sure about that? They seem to be having difficulties while we speak"
"Transfomia...I think they're doing an excellent job"
"What are you saying. They're clearly having troubles fighting against that demon. Right Lisanna?"
"Ha? Uhmmm. I agree with Transformia"
Mirajane and Lisanna were being pushed around by a new demon. It had red eyes and had a body of a ram. Its curved horns on top of its head as an effective guard and shield while its human-like hands held onto its proud thick sword that can slice through three buildings in one swift movement. Its hooves which it stood on seemed to be a good spot to aim for, but the only think blocking it from happening is its pressure of force once it moves - Crushing the ground below them like someone stepping and crushing an aluminum can with one simple step. It wore no clothing, no rude parts, just a body. Its fur was one thing that was attractive. A blue and black fur which mixed along with each other to form a nice colour mixture.
"I really would like to cut off that long beard of his" The girl hissed, slowly getting agitated from the sight of the swishing and swinging of the beard under the demon's chin. Her patience was at its limits, "AHH! I CAN'T HOLD IT IN ANYMORE!" Counterpart Lisanna cried out as she jumped down the building. "LISANNA!" Counterpart Mirajane called out. The demon behind them chuckled, its white and black scales reflected the moonlight above them, "You better catch up with her...". "I know Transformia" CMi (Counterpart Mirajane) smiled before lunging down her body, allowing her to have a long jump down the edge of the building.
"Take-Over: Halphas!"
"Take-Over: White Satan Soul!"
A huge cloud of dust and dirt was exploded on contact as they both landed right next to each other. CLi (Counterpart Lisanna) dashed forward to the demon while CMi ran in front of the two panting girls, protecting them from any incoming danger. Being cold and cold-hearted before during her dark past, CLi had no difficulties on deciding on her actions. CLi ran forward, jumping away from any possible attacks that the demon may come up with. With swift movements, CLi managed to grab the demon's beard, pulling it down as the sounds of the ripping flesh was heard. She landed down gracefully and dropped the beard before running around the three girls, running back towards the demon for an attack, "Soul Extinction!" She cried out, releasing a powerful white blast of energy towards it. "Nee-san!" CLi called out. "Coming!" CMi hummed before running towards the demon, she jumped away from the sword and landed on the blunt edge of the blade, running up the edge, it was quite a run but she still managed it. Counterpart Mirajane jumped high into the sky before doing a forceful kick in its stomach, pushing it back in distance before attacking, "Water Slash!" She yelled out, folding her arms into in 'x' in front of her chest before opening her arms over her head which created two huge waves of water in a shape of blades towards the demon.
The demon groaned loudly, creating a mini-earthquake while in the process of deafening the sensitive hearing of the four girls. "Evil Spark!" CLi yelled against the cries of the demon, thrusting her hands on its head, releasing a powerful channel of electricity into the demon's forehead. It was powerful - It was even powerful enough to crack the skull of the demon slightly. CMi ran up, flying over to look at the monster in its eyes, "I'll let you have a better death than just pulling out your eyes" She said evilly as her killing aura slowly seeped out. Counterpart Mirajane soon punched the crack on its forehead with all the strength she could gather - Breaking its forehead with no support needed to do so. "What's going on?!" Lisanna asked as she looked up to see replicas of themselves floating high above them. The first to notice her distressed call was her replica of her. Slowly CLi landed onto the ground, right in front of them, "We're your counterparts silly" Counterpart Lisanna smiled. "What?!" Lisanna shouted out in disbelief. "Lisanna...Mira...I'll be off now" The silver dragon called out as it flashed its pink tinted wings out for the world to see. "Where will you be going of to?" CMi asked landing down beside her little sister. The dragon transformed into a phoenix, "I just got an instruction from our queen which is to evacuate the people to a safe spot and protect them with my cousin" Transformia explained. "Alright! See you soon!" CLi cheered out as they watched the dragon fly off into the distance in its phoenix form.
"Let go and fight against these demons" CMi suggested. "You just read my mind" Mirajane smiled back.
"Illusion! Sky Dragon!" A petite voice cried out which caught the attention of Wendy and Romeo who turned back to see a massive sky dragon in front of their eyes, "G-Grandeeney?" Wendy stuttered as she saw two replicas of her foster mother who died in the past.
The illusional dragon did not react only except when the petite voice shouted out again, "Knock out that demon!". "You shouldn't force your magic out Wendy. Lucy told you to be careful" Another voice was heard which came from the other dragon who walked up with a young girl next to it. "I know but I must help" Counterpart Wendy stated as she forced her huge illusional dragon to follow her orders. "Just remember what I told you in the past" The dragon stated. "Hai."
Romeo ran up to the injured Wendy and stood in front of her, eyeing the approaching girl who seemed to be having difficulties in breathing, "The air here is soo fowl. Are those girls really polluting the air around us?" CW (Counterpart Wendy) questioned as she looked up to her dragon. "Yes. It seems that they just noticed our presence" The dragon replied elegantly. Romeo squinted his eyes as of he couldn't believe it, 'Two Wendy's?!'. "Hey Wendy...That girl looks awfully like you..." Romeo stated with a hint of hesitation and confusion in his voice. Wendy looked at the girl with blue hair which was tied into two pony tails, "No way!" She gasped when she saw the face clearer, 'Another me?' She asked herself.
The girl that stood in front of the two stopped her conversation with the dragon, "Uhmmm. Nice to meet you! I'm here as a friend not an enemy!" CW cried out as she bowed to them before looking up shyly. "How come?" Wendy asked. Counterpart Wendy smiled before pulling a hesitant expression, "I guess I should say that I'm from another world?" She questioned while explaining in brief words. Her eyes widened when she saw the severe wound on Wendy's shoulder who she clutched onto like dear life. "Oh no! Are you alright?! Can't you heal yourself?" CW questioned as she ran up, placing her hand in front of the wound without touching it, "Sky Dragon's Healing Spell" She chanted as her hands started to glow a light blue colour. Wendy looked at her counterpart with a shocked expression before looking down to see her wound completely recovered, "Woow. But how?" Wendy questioned. A glow grew behind her counterpart before a woman walked up to them, 'Grandeeney became a human?!' Wendy stated in pure shock. "Your magic here is still developing while my Wendy's magic was naturally taught and by our queen. Our magic from our world is much stronger so let us help you fight" Grandeeney interpreted before stopping. CW huffed before looking at them with a smile.
Their conversation was cut short when a beam shot right at them, making the scream in pain as the landed on the ground. Vines grew from the ground, wrapping their legs around and throwing them into the air before slamming them down forcefully onto the ground, making CW lose her concentration, meaning that her illusional dragon vanished into the air. Soon, a shock of electricity shot from the vines, electrifying them as it held a tight grip on their legs. "GHAAAA!" They all cried out as they wailed in dear pain. Sinister laughing was heard and Grandeeney was the first to regain control of the pain, using her wind to cool down the burning sensation on her ankle.
The temporary human dragon started to go on her knees and balanced herself to stand up - The pain was unbearable and to be against a thunder and electric user while she was a wind user, it was hard to imagine who would possibly win if they fought. "Don't. Hurt. Them. Sky Dragon's Roar!" Grandeeney yelled out she gave out a painful roar to a man who stood in front of them. "I see that you're from another world" The man chuckled before vanishing in the distance. Grandeeney clenched her teeth before using sharp blades of wind to slice the electrifying vines from injuring the children even further.
"Grandeeney?" CW weakly cried out as her blurred eyes watched the figure walk off into the distance, "You can do it Wendy. Just remember our training during the previous GMG. I'll handle this guy" The Sky dragon calmly said before disappearing from sight. Counterpart Wendy widened her eyes, "GRANDEENEY!" She yelled out before looking over to the other two who were slowly catching her breaths. "Be strong... We can do it!" CW encouraged like she always have done to her guild mates. Thankfully her enthusiasm went through the two who slowly rose from the ground.
'We can do it!' The three thought in a unison as they felt their blood pumping.
While they were fighting below against countless demons, two girls watched their every movement.
"Come on Ayame! I wanna fight them!" Sakura begged as she continued waving her hands around in a circular movement which made green ghastly souls combining with each other. "No. We must summon that Black dragon who can bring devastation to the world" Ayame hissed as she threw down a chain of purple scripts into the ground below them which drew out a picture of a dragon with lines on its scales. "We're almost done. Come on!" Sakura whined once again before throwing the huge green skull-shaped soul into the dragon image which happened to grow to fill up the blanks of the image like a colouring page. "Now we need the blood to control the dragon" Ayame stated as the two slowly flew above the image. They slowly used their sharp nails to carefully cut their skin, allowing their crimson fresh blood to drop into the green image. The two snickered before backing away to look at their dragon who slowly rose from the ground.
"STOP IT RIGHT THERE!" A faint shout was heard in the distance. The two sisters turned their attention over to the owner of the voice. There in the far distance was Lucy who was charging towards them with dragons. "Tsk! GO MY DEMONS!" Sakura yelled out as she pointed over to Lucy's direction.
Slowly, orbs of black substance rose from the ground, forming into black devil like demons who snickered before charging towards them.
Ayame laughed before paying attention back to their slowly rising dragon.
Lucy saw something flying towards them and instantly she knew that they were no good, "Uhm guys? What's that?" She questioned as she pointed over to what she saw. "Oh shit" CLu (Counterpart Lucy) cursed as she started to see the faint black coloured demons fly to them, "Celestial Dragon's Roar!" CLu shouted as she attacked. The demons dodged it and her eyes widened when she saw them fusing into one another to create three huge demons who took the form of a human. "WATCH OUT!" Igneel grunted before using his wings to block the charging attacks from the demons. They were incredibly strong and to their surprise, those demons were strong enough to knock Igneel out of the sky and down onto the ground. Thankfully, Igneel was able to protect the two defenseless teens from being squashed from underneath. 'That was close' Igneel relieved. Lucy hesitantly looked up to see her counterpart fighting along with her husband, Natsu. The two and their dragon seemed to have difficulties in fighting against them due to their differences in strength, "They're as strong as the S-class monsters in our world! I thought we had a power difference between this world and ours!" Counterpart Natsu grunted as he blocked the punches from the nonstop laughing demons.
"I can't hold it much longer!" CLu groaned before her wings vanished, leaving her to be falling from the sky but landing gracefully onto the uneven concrete. "You go ahead. We'll handle them! I'll get to you soon!" CLu shouted out as she ran in front of them. Lucy hesitated before taping her demon's shoulder and then running ahead with her bangs covering her eyes, 'Because of me...Because of me that this is happening!' Lucy blamed herself.
Lucy jumped into the sky and Natsu quickly jumped after her, catching her using his demonic tail as he flew higher and higher, lifting his partner along as well. "Shit." Natsu cursed as he looked ahead. Lucy looked up as well once she heard Natsu swear, her body started to shake in fear as she saw a whole army of demons flying towards her, "Fire Dragon's Roar!" Lucy grunted as she started to attack. Time was ticking and she didn't know that while she was in the air flying and dodging these demons, the people below her are slowly falling down one by one from the lack of magic and exhaustion.
Seconds. Minutes. Hours. It's been almost three hours and the demons continued to attack Lucy and Natsu who struggled to fight against them. Lucy and Natsu were losing their strength and magic at an incredible speed, cuts and bruises were everywhere along their bodies.
While they fought, Lucy noticed the decrease of the amount of attacks. Quickly, they all disburse into smaller groups and the two panted as they heard the cheering from Ayame and Sakura. Their eyes lead from them to something else even more vicious looking. A black-scaled dragon with blue markings on its huge body, wings that are much bigger than the dragons that Lucy's counterpart was already controlling. The shivering in Lucy's body was shaking nonstop. Lucy could even feel Natsu shivering in fear himself as they both stared into its sharp looking eyes.
The limp bodies of their counterparts and friends lay there in fear and horror as they watched the encounter of their two friends and in between on the dragons. The counterparts all looked at each other petrified, "Acnologia" They all managed to whisper out which caught the massive surprisement of the others who just noticed that the dragon above them exists in their counterparts world as well.
CLu and CN (Counterpart Natsu) winced in pain as they slowly got up. Counterpart Natsu coughed up blood while Counterpart Lucy tried to force out her power which only lead to her bleeding to increase even more. CN grinded his teeth in frustration before sprinting ahead, leaving his wife behind to take care of her side of her problems. Dashing forward, CN ran and jumped high into the air, placing his palms on Sakura and Ayame's faces who were caught off-guard, then using nothing but muscle power to push them along into the ground below them. The conflict between the back of skulls hitting against the concrete was bad, their high screeches of pain could be heard throughout the whole area.
While this was happening, CLu shivered at the second glance of the dragon before her. She couldn't believe how fearsome he looked like. Counterpart Lucy flinched when she saw him opening his mouth where a small ball started to form in his mouth - She knew far too well where this was going off to.
Quickly, CLu got up and flew into the sky. She stopped right in front of the fearful dragon and the two badly injured people. "Acnologia! Stop what you're doing and go to rest!" CLu shouted as she ordered the dragon. Acnologia grunted before releasing a powerful white beam to the Dragon Queen who happily forced herself to eat the beam using her mouth to swallow it all.
Lucy watched in horror when she saw her counterpart eat up the whole thing so it wouldn't reached the two of them. "I am the Queen of the Dragons yet you refuse my order? Your queen is me...Not them" CLu stated weakly.
Lucy looked at her counterpart who started to cough out blood while tears streamed down her eyes, she slowly leaned backwards to show Lucy her most pained expression yet to pull, "I thought that our world is the same, yet this stupid dragon is not yet to be tamed by me" Counterpart Lucy stated before slowly falling back. Lucy watched and listened to her counterparts every word. Her hearing went bad when she saw CLu mouth out 'I'm sorry' before falling to the ground where CN was able to catch her in time. He cradled her with fear written all over his face, trying to talk to the collapsed CLu who fainted due to overuse of magic.
The memory of Lucy's counterpart eating that powerful beam of magic and her falling to the ground was slowly being carved into Lucy's brain. She screamed in fear as she forced her eyes shut with her hand covering her ears. Natsu looked at her shocked when tears fell from her eyes, "Lucy?" Natsu asked in concern as he slowly floated down to the ground. Lucy scrambled out of his grasp and curled herself into an upright ball position - Her body shivering and herself trying to get rid of the memory of that fearsome moment was that petrifying to the young blonde.
The laughing of the two voices echoed the area while Acnologia ran lose, flying around the city and destroying whatever remain upright and safe. Natsu looked up to Sakura and Ayame who slowly moved up, stretching their aching muscles before flying up into the air, "She shall never receive happiness. If she gets all the things she wanted in this world then there's no point in such a world to be existing" Sakura murmured before charging over to Natsu, grabbing his neck then holding him into the air which made his suffocate.
Lucy slowly looked up to see Sakura suffocating Natsu and growled, "Stay away from Natsu!" Lucy shouted as she kicked Sakura behind knee, making her fall into her knees, releasing Natsu from her grasp. "You bitch" Sakura scowled as she stood up to punch Lucy's stomach which made her cough out blood before walking away chuckling, "This shall be the last of Lucy Heartfilia!" Ayame shouted.
Lucy took a quick glance over to her counterpart who was still unconscious. She smiled gently over to her before falling, she closed her eyes and made her final wish, 'I wish to become a goddess. I want to get rid the evil in this world and save the people from the pain caused by others. I wish that I was the balance of all good and evil. Natsu... Grant my wish...' Lucy wished in her mind as she made contact with the hot ground. Natsu frowned, "But...That wish will take out your live within an instant! I cannot do that!" He reasoned as he looked at her who slowly opened her eyes with tears yet again to be streaming. Lucy slowly inhaled then exhaled before losing her cool, she had to force him to grant her wish, 'Im sorry Natsu. I know that you don't want to but, it's all for the best - For you and for me. It's not like we're not going to see each other anymore once this problem resolves. Please Natsu...' Lucy thought as she glares at him forcefully. "Grant my wish demon! I will reborn into someone who'll hold the balance of those two forces!". Her screaming made Natsu flinch from her sudden burst of anger, 'I don't want to lose you Lucy. Why are you making it so difficult for me?' Natsu thought to himself.
"That is something I don't want to do...but if you demand it to happen then I'll grant your future-less wish". Lucy nodded as her stern face went to ease. She closed her eyes and smiled, soon her body started to glow a soft pink colour, 'Thank you...Natsu'
The body of Lucy Heartfilia started to disintegrate from her feet then growing up to the top of her head. She smiled gently as she could feel the heartbroken stare from her beloved wish-granting demon. As her body continued to vanish, the particles of her body flew into the air and flew all around, once it flew into the far distance, it went into another world, slowly rebuilding her body to once it once was.
The only part reamining was her hips to her head, Natsu strted to cry was Lucy's body vanished. Her voice echoed through the air, "Thank you everyone.." She thanked which the wind picked up, sending her message throughout the area to reach her friends.
Erza heard the message first and quickly her eyes shot open. She looked up into the sky to see the last particles fly high into the air. Tears flowed from her eyes as it blurred the crystal image into a hazy one as she watched her close friend ascend to the sky - Vanishing from sight. "L-L-LUCY!" The scarlet-haired mage screamed out in hopes of her friend returning back to the ground, saying that it was all a prank. If it was a prank...Then it was a 100% success. Erza sobbed as she tried to wipe away her tears, her tears stopped for a moment when she didn't believe on what she was seeing above her. The sky started to grumble as if a storm was supposed to come - There were no more clear nights with tints of red. They were slowly being covered up my slowly moving thick grey clouds which started to pour rain heavily. It was cold. And it was heavy rainfall.
As the rain continued to pour, every single friend that had a very close connection with Lucy started to tilt their heads up to look up at the rain. Tears were streaming from their eyes, using the rain to cover their wet tears. Their Lucy was gone. Gone from their lives. Gone from this world. Gone from their sight.
As friends mourn for their friend across the area, CLu started to open her eyes, her breathing was shallow as it would take some time to gain her normal breathing pace. She looked up to her favourite Fire Dragon Slayer to his face filled with guilt and agony. CN slowly turned around to gently smile over to his wife, his face was utterly depressed and CLu's heart shattered into tiny fragments when she understood his emotions, 'My vision...Was correct?' She stated as she tasted the bitterness of regret in her mouth, 'Was I too late or am I too weak in this world where I cannot go against the rebellious dragon who stood in front of me?' She questioned as she used her elbow to push her limb body up from the ground. "Luce? What are you doing?" CN asked as he stood up along with her, catching his wife with cuts and bruises all over who almost fell back to the cold, wet ground.
CLu looked up to the sky and slowly breathed in, allowing her magic flowing inside her body to purify the air before eating it, "Lucy-san!" A young petite voice cried out. CLu smiled, "What's wrong Wendy?" She asked, turning around to see a panting 'Sky Maiden' with beads of sweat all over her petite body, "Grandeeney...Told me...To heal you" CW puffed as she regained her composure. Quickly, CW ran over to CLu and breathed in but then started to cough out blood, 'I forgot that they polluted and poisoned the air' CW thought as she continued to cough. "Breathed in using your nostrils. Feel the chemicals entering your body and repel those chemicals one by one and then eat the purified air and let the refreshing air flow through your veins. You can do it Wendy. I know you can perform...'Sky Dragon's Purity Spell'" CLu explained.
The young Sky Maiden looked at her friend as she visualized the process in her mind. She closed her eyes and started to take a deep inhale and focused on the chemicals, allowing her magic to separate the harmful chemicals from each other. CW then ate the air - It was sweet and refreshing to her taste. She opened her eyes, " Sky Dragon's Purity Spell! Sky Dragon's Healing Spell!" She shouted as she flung her hands into the sky before swinging them both down where a small sphere glowed, growing around CW as a barrier with only purified oxygen. CW started to heal CLu and CN's limp bodies where it slowly healed, it soon faded away as the process was finished. "Thank you Wendy" CLu beamed before walking up ahead slightly, leaving the two behind. "Illusion! The Black Dragon! Acnologia!" The Dragon Queen shouted before jumping into the sky, "Activate! Wings of the Dragon!", CLu flew high into the sky before deactivating it, dropping onto the head of her illusional Acnologia who obeyed her every command, 'I guess there's no choice. I can't let all their efforts go to waste can I?' She asked maturely, "Acnologia! Roar of the Black Dragon!".
"Where am I?" Lucy asked as she slowly opened her honey-brown eyes, looking around and observing her surroundings - She was in space, under the shining stars of her Celestial Spirits. "Why am I here?" Lucy asked herself out loud once again.
A glow of a mysterious figure suddenly appeared in front of the blonde - No face. No eyes. No significant appearance. Only a figure that was glowing gently in front of her. The person seemed to have long hair and was wearing a gown that flowed in the nothingness.
"Why are you here did I hear? You sure made an extravagant wish to Natsu. I'm surprised that you followed the evil fate that lies ahead of you even though your counterpart told you every single detail" The figure stated as its voice echoed through space, 'This voice...It sounds familiar...It's my voice?' Lucy thought to herself as she gazed at the figure softly. Somehow the figure seemed to hear her thoughts and began to chuckle, "I am you and you are me. What am I? I'm the spirit of you. Why am I here? To grant your wish" The figure stated kindly. Lucy frowned as she tilted her head in confusion, "You are me and I'm you...You said that you're going to grant my wish. Isn't it Natsu's job to grant my wish though - And not you?" Lucy questioned as she tried to touch the figure in pure curiosity which happened to go through. Lucy quickly yanked her hand away from shock.
"His wish-granting job has just been complete just as he granted your wish. Lucy...You are now dead. Natsu has eaten your soul with just a snap of a finger. But...You'll be living once again for your very last moment once I finish the other half of your wish in his position. Lucy. You don't have to push yourself into doing something that can possibly by this dreadful. This wish is bound to happen if you choose it. Do you wish to live for this last moment in being a non-human mage and become a goddess that walks around the street as nothingness. I can grant you the power to live, not as a human, but to be reborn as a new person" Asked the figure in a worried tone for her dear self.
Lucy looked away for a moment, "I made a wish. Yes, a very selfish wish to become something that can be considered as a mere possibility of it happening once I die. But, if there is a chance of it bound to happen then I'll catch it with my own hands. Now if it is the choice I need to make then yes. Such things like this are happening around the world - I can't stand to see it happening as a usual process. To see countless people die for the other to revive or to pass through the gate of heaven with less sins than before. I don't want to see or hear the sad stories of people dying without thinking of the future, I'm positive about my choice. I don't care if I cannot stand by the sides of my friends and my stupid family...All I want is to give them happiness and I want to see them continuing to smile in happiness and glee...So please...Grant my wish...Grant my last and final wish..." Lucy replied in tears. The figure sighed, "If that is your true desires...Then I have no position in stopping it at this point. I'll grant your final Wish Lucy...Now walk through me and feel the power of both good and evil flowing through your veins" The figure whispered gently.
The blonde looked at the figure with uneasiness but slowly walked up. She stopped her tracks and looked at the figure before breathing in and closing her eyes, 'Good bye...' Lucy though as she walked through the figure.
