Last Chapter:
"I can smell her."
That announcement has apparently re-energized the whole guild and in a fit of emotion, all of them burst into laughter and cheers. Thank the heavens, Lucy is alive! There were even the occasional tears of joy. Mirajane rounded up all the girls and squealed in delight as their favorite blond Celestial Spirit mage has been alive all this time. With all hope restored, it was now time to party. Cana, apparently had drunk all ten of wine barrels and still has sanity left in her person. Juvia, the water mage, hearing that her love rival is alive had fired up in her new found determination.
"Ice Princess, I'm all fired up." Natsu said as he clenched his knuckles and grinned.
"Game on, Charcoal!" replied the Ice-Make mage.
"EVERYONE!" Master Makarov's voice boomed. All guild members attentive.
"…we must find our Lucy! Immediately!" And that was the cue that made Team Natsu a lot more determined to find their missing member. At last, they shall be complete.
"Fairy Tail, break up in to three groups! One goes with Wendy, the other with Gajeel and the last, go with Team Natsu!"
"Team Natsu go to the south. Wendy, East. Gajeel, West and I'll go North. We'll search the whole Fiore. Follow the trail from your starting point and see where it leads to."
At those command, All members ran out of the guild and broke into three groups to find the lost girl.
AT THE ISLAND…
Golden light soon flickered across the room and dissipated, revealing the King of the Zodiac, Leo. Laxus then turned around and faced the Celestial Spirit, knowing all too well that there is a matter to discuss and with the expectant look the spirit is giving, there is no way to deny that whatever information The Lion has, is bigger than he can imagine.
"Laxus," The spirit started, walking to the S-Class mage. The Dragon Slayer nodded in greeting. "How is she?"
"She woke up a while ago and sent me flying fifty feet into the woods." Laxus replied with an irritated tone. At this, Loke chuckled.
"I guess, it's to be expected." The spirit sighed.
"Hm? Why?"
"Her powers are going haywire…" He trailed off.
"Look, let's just cut to the chase, shall we? Spill it." Laxus said with an air of impatience.
"It's about Lucy. She has no memory, right?"
"Yeah. What about it?"
"It's a spell, Laxus. Apparently too powerful that gave her amnesia for that long."
"That long? Does that mean…"
"Yes, Laxus. Even before she went into a trance for three months, the spell has already taken effect."
"Then why didn't you protected her? You're her spirit and you can even pass through your own gate without her consent" Laxus growled which made the spirit took a step back.
"It's not that simple…" He trailed off. "Those guys…they specializes in sealing magic. They prevented any magic and that includes us." He looked down, guilt apparent in his face.
"Tch. Then why the trance?" Laxus looked up to see Loke trying to make up an explanation. With this, Laxus' patience thinned even more.
"It's her. H-her soul unconsciously went there a-and please, Laxus, I know this is a sudden request but you must help her. The soul has absorbed too much spirit energy in that time. That amount of magic will only deteriorate her body. Please, Laxus. Please. Please…" He begged.
"Wait. Isn't the time in the Celestial Spirit World and Earthland different? Three months here is like a day there, so why would Lucy get some sort of power in just a day?"
"Yes. She won't get that much of energy if both the body and soul is in one place. Lucy's case is different, her soul is there and her body is here. Meaning, she's bare. Her very essence absorbed that spirit energy"
"I still don't get it. That amount of magic power should only be stored in her soul."
"Yes, if her soul is free from her body and that means, if she is…she is…"
"Dead?" Laxus completed the sentence.
"Yes." Loke nodded solemnly."Wait, I'm suddenly having this weird feeling…Is this place Tenrou Island?"
"Now that you mention it, it sure does look like it. Why?" At that statement, Loke gasped.
"Oh, no! This is wrong. This should not be happening right now." Genuine shock and pure terror coursed through the spirit's face.
"What?!" Laxus stood up and shook Loke out of his nightmare.
"It's one thing that the soul has absorbed that much of spirit energy but if the body has also done the same thing, Lucy won't have long to live."
A/N: Well, since I just can't get enough of the blond mages, I have written a new part. Again, thanks for the reviews, AnimeLuver778 and here it is XxCherryXJellyxX and also, thanks for the new supporters (Followers and Favorites alike). I'll try updating soon! Love y'all! :)
P.S. I don't really like Flashbacks. It just messes with my mind so there might be little to none of those. :D
