Omake XXIV – Salvation.

Tenroujima. The Sacred Island. The place where the first master of Fairy Tail rest. The place where I saved my friends.

Acnologia wasn't taking us seriously and he was making fun of us, but we were fighting seriously! With all our efforts! Our strength and our bonds! My spirits where tired, I was tired and each movement was a torment for me and my sore muscles. And I'm sure I'm not the only one, it just took a peek around me to notice how tired my friends, my nakamas, my family is tired too.

"Everyone, come here!" Makarov ordered, a circle had formed but something is missing. "Lucy! Where are you going?"

"I need to climb that! I have an idea to buy us more time!" Acnologia was preparing his last attack and the blonde mage was climbing a tree.

Happy and Charle went to help her and Lucy started to recall all her magic, a single point of magic and a ray of light from the floor to the sky, lighting and then… Everything stopped. Laxus sighed, so weak that blonde girl, so weak it was disappointed. But it hadn't been for nothing… soon it was noticeable how her call had worked and the water around them flowed to the sky where stars started to fall.

"Lucy Heartfilia, my old friend." A husky voice started the mages, who didn't understand what they were seeing at first.

"Celestial Spirit King." Lucy bowed at the gigantic Celestial Spirit in front of her, wearing armour with long whiskers and red eyes. "I'm glad you answered my call."

"I'm still in debt with you for saving my old friend Leo. And now, you have found the last dragon, Acnologia. He should not be here anymore."

Acnologia was stopped, frozen, mid-air with his jaws opened and shining blue. Lucy got down slowly and Natsu was the first one to come to her side.

"Who is this spirit, Lucy?"

"He is the Celestial Spirit King, the ruler of the spirits." Makarov answered, Lucy was sweating and gasping out. "Why he is here is more important."

"Lucy called me, a treat indeed. I will take Acnologia with me and you'll be safe. What are you willing to give me, Lucy?"

"I'm willing… to give you e-everything." Her vision was blurry and her ears were buzzing.

"The price for calling me is high, I won't take your life but I want your mortality." At first it was nothing, mortality? What could you do with it?

"Take it, my mortality is yours now." Lucy didn't think it twice nor did she let her friends say otherwise.

"No, Lucy!" Someone said but he or she couldn't do anything else because an intense light blinded them.

When they woke up, they were on the ship, in the middle of the ocean. Everyone was safe and sound.

"Lucy! Lucy! Wake up, Lucy!" Erza was shaking her teammate who hadn't waked up yet and Makarov went to her. "Lucy!"

"What? What?" She whined when they woke up her so rudely. "What?"

She was hugged and kissed by her nakamas, even Fried hugged her.

"Don't do that again." Lucy wanted to correct Gray, she wouldn't do that again, she couldn't give her mortality again.

"I won't."

Now, she had saved her friends and the price was a very long live. Now, she was totally immortal and it was the Salvation's price.
