Hello! Thank you all for your kind reviews, means a lot to me (: I'm trying to take it slow and not rush into the action of the GMG, but I'm excited to write that part. Anyway, I'm very excited to write this chapter, it's my favorite kind to write. Now let's start!


Lucy yawned, and got up out of her bed. One of the few times where she was actually excited to get up. She had some very important questions to ask Serenity, and the other 3 founders. She was planning on training today, so she got up and put on short spandex shorts and a dark blue sports bra, throwing on a blue tank top over. She slipped her feet into sneakers. She then gathered all her hair into a thick ponytail and went out her room. She walked into the hall only to find the other girls already there.

"Lucy! Come here, we have to set up for our second day!" Serenity said. "Here, pin these up on the job board." Serenity shoved a stack of papers into Lucy's hands. Lucy ran over to the job board and started pinning them up. Lilith and Piper had already taken up their spots at the bar, Serenity and Liana were fixing up decorations and cleaning up from last night's mess. The five of them finished up cleaning with 30 minutes to spare.

"Perfect! Now I have to talk to you guys about something." Lucy said.

"Oh? What's that?" Lilith replied.

"I think the five of us, plus Aurora should form a team!" Lucy yelled excitedly.

"That sounds great! But why Aurora?" Serenity inquired.

"For one, her magic is an interesting kind. And, when the GMG comes, I can't participate so I was thinking our team would be Lilith, Piper, Serenity, Liana and Aurora." Lucy said.

"I'd love that, but why us? You don't even know if we're strong." Piper said.

"No, I can sense that you all are. Plus you're already friends, so that's good." Lucy replied.

"Well, If she believes in us then we should too!" Liana smiled.

"Indeed." Lilith nodded in agreement.

"So it's decided! We'll make a team! Good. Now, can I talk to Serenity for a little?" Lucy asked.

Lucy and Serenity broke off from the other four.

"Serenity, you use Galaxial Magic, right? You said you have a ton of spells?" Lucy said. Serenity nodded.

"So, do you know of a spell named Urano Metria? Can you do it?" Lucy asked eagerly.

"I do know of that spell, and I can do it." Serenity replied.

"Oh! That's great! I need you to help me train then!"

"That sounds great, Lucy, but what does Urano Metria have to do with any of this?"

"I want to learn it. I've done it once before, with assistance. But I need to get a lot stronger, I need you to help me with that."

Serenity smiled. "Well, I'd be happy to do that. I'm sure with your magic, you'll adapt to it quickly. I'm also sure I can teach a ton more Galaxial Magic."

Lucy's eyes widened. "Really? You can do that for me? Thank you so much, Serenity!" Lucy pulled Serenity in for a hug, and the two embraced.


"Well... it looks like all are members are lazy." Lilith remarked. It was 30 minutes past the opening time and nobody was there.

"It's ok, Lilith. They don't have to come exactly and the opening time." Piper said.

"I'm here! I'm here! Am I late?" Aurora came dashing into the guild hall.

"Aurora! Good, you're here!" Lucy said.

"...Where is everyone?" asked Aurora.

"Those lazy-" Lilith began to speak but was cut off by Piper.

"They're not here yet." Piper said.

"Anyway, I'm glad you're here, Aurora. We have to talk to you about something. But first, I don't believe you've met Liana, Piper, or Lilith." Lucy pointed to the three as they introduced themselves.

"Ok, now that that's out of the way, would you like to join Me, Lilith, Piper, and Serenity on a team?" Lucy asked Aurora.

Aurora gasped. "Yes! I'd love to!" She said, beaming.

"Perfect. We'll take a job tomorrow, so today we can just hang out. Piper and Lilith, you two need to take the bar spots for today. Tomorrow, two of the new members agreed to do it." Lucy said.

"Got it." Piper and Lilith walked over to the bar.

"Liana, Aurora, Serenity and I are going to train, do you want to train with us?" Lucy asked. Liana and Aurora nodded. The four walked outside into the Heartfilia Estate's huge backyard.

"These are the training grounds. Don't worry about any damage, there are runes that prevent any damage from getting to the house, or onto any wildlife." Lucy said.

"Amazing... these are huge, Lucy." Serenity said, while Lucy nodded in agreement.

Lucy walked over to an open patch of grass. "Serenity and I are going to train over here. You can come with us or go elsewhere." Liana and Aurora nodded, and walked over to a patch nearby Lucy and Serenity.

"So Aurora, what magic do you have?" Liana asked.

"Fire devil slaying. You?"

"Enchantment magic. I have an idea, I'll enchant your magic for as long as I can while you attack a dummy, or as many as you can." Liana pointed to the dummy.

Aurora nodded. "Good idea, let's go!"

"Magic Enchantment: Strength!" Liana yelled, as a blue glow surrounded Aurora.

"Whoa... this is cool." Aurora said. Aurora went straight for the dummy.

"Fire Devil's Fangs!" Aurora yelled, two sharp fiery scythes appearing from her arms, cutting into the dummy. Aurora kept attacking the dummy, as Liana was holding the spell up.

"Whoa... kinda like Natsu." Lucy said, looking over at Aurora and Liana's training.

"Mhm. Now, let's get to or own training! C'mon Lucy, I believe you can do Urano Metria." Serenity said.

"Thanks. What should we start with?" Lucy asked.

"A simple spell to help you get the gist of Galaxial Magic. I call it Golden Fist. You have to bring your magic into your arm muscles. If you've done it right, your hands will glow gold." Serenity's own hands started to glow. "It enhances your natural strength. The stronger you are naturally, the more it helps you." Serenity demonstrated by punching the dummy off its stand, a good 50-60 feet away from the stand.

"Whoa. I'll give it a try."

"I believe you can do it, Lucy!"

Lucy stood still for a good minute, with her eyes close, and then a faint glow came to her hands. Lucy opened her eyes, and then the glow flickered and went away.

"That was very good for a first try! Most people can't even do it on their first try, so I assume your prior knowledge of Celestial Magic helps. I think you'll be able to get it down by tomorrow, Lucy!" Serenity exclaimed.

Lucy panted. "I hope so... I'll try again now. Will we work on Urano Metria after I get this?"

Serenity frowned. "Sorry to disappoint, Lucy, but Urano Metria is advanced. I'll need to teach you some beginner and intermediate spells, first. But at the rate you're learning, it shouldn't be long."

"Oh, that's fine. Better to have more spells in my arsenal." Lucy said, as Serenity nodded in agreement.

Lucy stood still once again, and this time it only took about 30 seconds before the golden glow came to her hands and then dissapeared.

"Hey, that's improvement Lucy! You definitely got this."

Lucy smiled, and went to work yet again. This time, she did it in 30 seconds again, and managed to keep the glow up for about 15 seconds. She was slowly improving, as Serenity made her do all kinds of things. Punch the dummy, do it while moving, do it instantly, doing it while running, and keeping the glow for two minutes.

"Good work Lucy! Keeping the glow up for two minutes and generating it instantly is no small feat for your first day learning. If we fight on the job tomorrow, you can try this." Serenity said enthusiastically.

"Ah...yeah, I hope..." Lucy was out of breath, and declared it was time to end training. Liana and Aurora agreed, and the four walked back into the estate smiling. They were unaware of the chaos to come.


Who doesn't love foreshadowing, am I right? (; Anyway, hope you liked it. See you next time!
