Chapter 9: Team Mystic Force
Hey everyone a new chapters coming your way but with this one we won't show a whole rack of drama like the last couple of chapters, this one will mostly dealing with Lucy and her new teammates which I also made them name for but if you guys don't like it I'll change it just for you.
I'm showing some new things with Wendy and Annabelle with both of their powers (because before I didn't give that much description on how Annabelle's magic was like or her armor) and a upgrade to Wendy's magic and fighting ability so look out for that in the story and finally putting out a special gift for a certain somebody or more ;) so read and find out what happens in this new chapter.
(Fairy Tail Guild: Time Skip 1 week)
It was another wild day at the guild everyone acting like their usual selves but for some reason there was one dragonslayer who was sulking on one of the bar stools looking kind of sad and completely bored out of her mind.
"Hey Lucy are you ok, you look upset what's on your mind?" Mira came over and asked worried for her returned friend.
Lucy sighed putting her head down on the bar counter "Yeah I'm fine, it's just I'm so bored right now and I'm waiting for Wendy and Annabelle to get here so we can leave".
Mira tilted her head to side wondering what Lucy was talking about "What do you mean Lucy?"
Lucy lifted her head "Me, Wendy, and Annabelle are going on our first mission together as a team so I've been waiting for about almost two hours for them to get here but of course there not and it's just making me a little antsy waiting for them" Lucy explained to the confused Mira.
Mira's eyes widened in shock at the sudden news "Lucy you're in a new team?" Mira asked with shock coating her voice and definitely on her face.
"Yeah Mira, I already I told you I was with new group and doing with missions with just a couple days after "that" fight" Lucy said furrowing her eyebrows together at first then looking down with a small frown saying her at her last words softly.
Mira noticed Lucy's slight sadness so she wanted to change the subject "Well I just didn't know that you literally left Team Natsu it's kind of weird not seeing you with them anymore" Mira frowned.
"Yea" Lucy gave one response.
"What's your team's name anyway?" Mira asked with curiosity.
Lucy looked up at Mira getting out of her funky mood and smiling at her "Our team name is Team Mystic Force, isn't it great" Lucy smiling brightly.
"Why Team Mystic Force?" Mira asked.
"Because it mixes all of our magic together in a way by mixing me and Wendy's Dragonslayer magic and Annabelle's Requip magic, plus adding Anna's and Carla's Aero magic to make a great combination and to make so no one was the leader of the group because we would work together to accomplish our missions together" Lucy said explaining the meaning of her new team to Mira while smiling softly to herself without her knowing.
Mira stood there shocked but so incredibly happy to know that the girl in front of her was a true Fairy Tail mage and she was so proud of her.
But before she could say anything to her the door opened showing five familiar figures of a new formed team.
"Hey guys you finally came, why did it take you guys so long to come here?" Lucy said while smiling walking over to her new team.
"Hey sorry we passed a new armor store and of course Annabelle had to stop us to go see it" Wendy said looking at almost retreating Annabelle.
Lucy looked over in her direction with a dark aura around her and with a glare directly at her "Oh so you're the reason I practically stayed here waiting for you guys for TWO hours bored out of my mind, I hope you got what you wanted Annabelle because when this mission is over I'm going to give you punishment that you wished I hadn't given you or even existed" Lucy said with a playful and dark tone scaring everyone who was even a good feet away and even giving Mira a small shiver down her spine for a second.
Annabelle's eyes widened in terror at the possible things that Lucy could do to her she fell down to the floor bowing down in front of Lucy "I'm so sorry I'll never do it again just" she stopped to get up and look at her "Please don't punish me I beg you" Annabelle said with pleading and begging eyes.
Lucy sighed kneeling down in front of her "Ok fine but you still owe me it was getting kind of boring by myself doing nothing while waiting for you guys, but let's not think about that now let's get going on that mission right" Lucy said smiling softly at her friend and then showing a look of determination and excitement.
Annabelle forgot what happened before and smiled brightly and nodding at Lucy while getting up to go to the Request Board.
Lucy and Team Mystic Force started looking at certain missions that looked interesting but for some reason no such luck for them.
Lucy looked over to Wendy "Wendy do you see anything on your end?" Lucy called out to her.
Wendy sighed sadly "No, nothing here".
"How about you Annabelle, did you and the exceeds find anything good yet?" Lucy asked looking at her other teammates.
All of them shook their heads "No just a bunch of easy and probably boring missions that don't give that much pay at all" Annabelle responded.
Lucy sighed "Damn how the hell can we get stronger if there isn't any strong mission to go to-"Lucy paused when she saw a piece of paper hanging out of one of the mission she was just looking at.
"Hey what's this?" Lucy saying put loud to nobody, she peels the previous mission off another one and her eyes shine with happiness and joy.
"Hey guys look what I found!" Lucy said with excitement practically jumping for joy.
Wendy and the rest of team ran over to her "What, What did you find Lucy?" Wendy asked trying to look at the mission Lucy grabbed.
"Look" Lucy pointed to the mission.
DANGER!
WE NEED HELP A DARK GUILD HAS TAKEN OVER OUR TOWN AND STOLEN ALL
OF OUR FOOD, SUPPILIES, AND THE WOMEN OF THE VILLAGE AS WELL. PLEASE COME AND SAVE US YOUR ARE ONLY HOPE.
WE LIVE IN LUNAR VILLAGE ACROSS THE EAST SIDE OF FIORE AND THE DARK GUILD IS CALLED DEMONWOLF.
THE REWARD IS 390,000J, A SET OF GATE KEYS, PLUS SOME ARMORS AND WEAPONS WHEN YOU FINISH THE MISSION.
When everyone was done reading the mission they all squealed with joy at the wonderful reward and the big that they were going on it excited the two dragonslayers to no end and made the Requip mage jumping for joy finding this mission out of nowhere.
"This absolutely perfect I can't believe that a mission was here before and we never noticed it once, it sounds like it would be perfect for all three of us and the amount of jewels were getting is huge for a regular mission" Lucy said with stars shinning in her eyes.
"I LOVE THIS MISSION, I can't believe there giving us armor for this mission and such a huge reward for this dark guild, they must be really bad if they had to do all that" Annabelle happy to no end at the great opportunity but still wondering and worrying about how strong this guild is.
Lucy stopped fantasying about that the reward and started to think about what Annabelle said, if this reward was that big that meant this guild could be more dangerous than they think so that means they have to be extra careful when going on this mission.
"Yeah your Annabelle, we have to cautious when going on this mission but we have to go now before the train for that town leaves so let's go get our stuff and get on the train, we'll make a plan when we get on the train to Lunar Village, ok" Lucy looked at her team and saw the serious but determined looks on their faces and smiled.
"Now let's go on that mission and show everyone how strong of a team we are" Lucy cheered.
"YEAH!" Annabelle, Wendy, Anna, and Carla cheered happily ready to start off this new mission together as a new team.
(One Hour Skip Lucy's POV)
I ran out of my house to see my new team was waiting for me outside so we can leave for our mission.
"Hey guys did you wait for me the whole time?" I asked everyone the nodded and smiled.
"Yea of course, why wouldn't we were all a team remembers?" Wendy said making me smile and turn into a sad frown.
"Yea" I said sadly thinking about a certain team i know.
"Lucy are you ok" Anna flew over and sat on my shoulder I sighed.
"Yea I'm alright, it's just I keep thinking about my old team and how they replaced me like that even after they thought I died but I wouldn't blame them I am weak after all" Tears were starting to form in my eyes and I wanted to cry so badly but I didn't wanna show my tears in front of them even if they are my teammates.
Before I could say or do anything else I felt four arms wrap around me while four furry arms hugged my chest and face.
"W-What" I stuttered looking around me to see all my friends hugging me tightly.
"Don't ever say that your weak, you are one of the strongest people I've ever met in Fairy Tail to next Erza I couldn't imagine that you were even weak for a second because you take life head on and protect your nakama with everything you have until you have nothing left no person could be called weak if they what you do" Wendy said hugging me her head laying in between my right side of my shoulders with her arms around my stomach.
"Wendy's right I've met strong mages, my dad is one of them and he told me once that doesn't matter how strong you can be if you can't get over the fear in your heart or even accept it you'll never become stronger and what I've seen you done it all that shows how amazing you are so never forget that ok that you are strong with your magic and with your heart" Annabelle said hugging me her head on my left shoulder with her arms over Wendy's arms.
"I may not know you that much Lucy but I know that your stronger than most Fairy Tail mages and definitely one of the bravest ones as well so keep your head up because you're a powerful mage and dragonslayer at that just like Wendy and the other dragonslayers" Carla said while flying in the air with a soft and genuine smile on her face.
"Lucy I've watched you over the past three years train and get stronger each and every day so I can tell you right now that you're not weak at all and whoever says that you are I would beat them into a bloody pulp" Anna starts off.
I start laughing at what Anna is saying because I know she would actually do that to person if anything or if anyone hurt me emotionally or physically.
"And no one could be called weak after what happened when Unolena left that day" Anna said sadly, I started feeling tears slowly creep into my eyes but I continued to listen at what she had to say.
"When she left I didn't know what to do I was scared and sad that she was gone and I knew you were too, but you were so strong and so determined to keep going even though I knew you were probably hurting even more because you caught her just before she left" Anna tears were running down her face.
"You saw your dragon before she left!" Wendy released me looked at me in shock and surprise.
"Yea, I caught her leaving she was about to leave like all the other dragons but I stopped her, she didn't tell me why she was leaving but I couldn't stop her from leaving" I was at the point of crying my eyes out but I had to listen to what Anna was going to say next.
"But the thing is she was so strong for the both of us, she did everything in her power to keep going and that's what makes me so happy to be able to be with you. So please never lose that courage and that determination you had because without you I don't know where I'd be but I'm glad with you, I love you Mama always and forever" Anna said with tears falling slowly down her face.
That did it for me I broke down completely at the words they were saying to me, I was crying endlessly while they cried with me being in the moment and giving me the confidence that I lost when Ieft Team Natsu.
I was happy and I'll never forget to know that I have a team that will be right there when I needed it that, because they weren't only just my nakama but they were my like my family, my sisters for life and I'll never forget that ever.
We all got out of our emotional moment, I wiped my tears away and stood there standing straight and tall (Even tho I'm short) ready to go off on this mission with my new sisters and my new team. Team Mystic Force.
"Well now that we got over with that lets go out complete this mission, Team Mystic Force style" I yelled pumping my fist into the air.
"Yeah!" They all cheered together.
"Oh yeah, guys put your hands in the middle like this" I asked everyone.
"Why?" Carla asked in her bored tone.
"Just do it, please" I sighed and asked again.
They nodded their heads and put their hands in the middle copying my hand gesture, my hand made the 'rock and roll' hand sign but putting together with the others made it look like star with our hands.
"Awesome, now on the count of three we're going to throw hands in the air and yell "Team Mystic Force" ok" looking at everyone's approval.
They all nodded making me smile "Ok let's do this" I say very pumped right now.
"One" smiling at everyone
"Two" I look at everyone
"Three!" I yell throwing my hands with everybody yelling together in unison.
"Team Mystic Force!" We screamed to the sky while laughing our heads off.
But then reality hit me like a ton of bricks making me remember something very important and crucial to our mission, we have to get on the train on time!
"Guys I totally forgot we have to go now if we don't we're going our miss our train ride to go on our mission!" I said yelling frantically.
I saw the look on everyone's faces they paled dramatically and picked everything they had to take with them for are trip but then suddenly a great idea came to my mind.
"Anna, Carla! Grab Wendy and Annabelle now!" I said loudly in sort of demanding voice.
They looked at me weirdly then there eyes widened realizing what I was telling them to do they grabbed the two and shot off using MAX SPEED disappearing with a yellow and light pink light trail behind them.
I laughed "Man this going to be one heck of a day" I grabbed my stuff and readied myself so I can follow my team.
"Celestial Dragon's Shooting Star Acceleration!" I said flashing a blinding shot of light where the train station is so we won't be late for are ride.
(Two Hours Skip, Lucy's POV)
I was sitting in one of the train booths with of course the rest of my team, everyone was sleeping trying to get some rest for our mission and how much we had to do to get to the train station and make it on time.
Carla and Anna got there a minute before they were about to close and I made it right on the dot, if the ticket booth guy didn't recognized me right away I probably wouldn't of gotten on the train because he likes everything on time so no holding the train, but he made an exception for me which I gladly accepted.
I sat next to Wendy while she lays her head on my shoulder sleeping and having Carla in her arms laying there comfortably and Annabelle was sitting across from us also sleeping with Anna in her arms sleeping partially snoring.
I softly giggled so I wouldn't wake Wendy from her nap, I was sleeping too but I woke up about 15 minutes ago watching over them using it as an excuse to stay awake because I couldn't go back to sleep.
The train started getting slower and slower until it stopped; I look out the window to see small village with a lot of crescent signs over most stores and also the village's 'Welcoming' sign.
"Hello passengers we're now in Lunar Village, so please take all of your stuff and I hope you had a peaceful ride, come back and have a great day" I hear the lady on the monitor say so I thought it would be good to wake everybody up so we can go.
I woke everyone up and we grabbed our bags and we left the train to go off and start this mission, and finish it.
(Normal POV at 4:30 P.M.)
Lucy, Wendy, Annabelle, Carla and Anna were all off the train and walking to where the person who sent out the mission for them, they started walking everywhere looking and searching the client's house or building that they're staying in.
Lucy looked at the instructions on the back of the mission sheet and saw why they couldn't find It because it wasn't night time and the moon wasn't out to guide them where they were supposed to go, so all of Team Mystic Force went to one of the Village's hotel building and bought one big room for the night and all went out shopping or do anything to waste time so when the moon is out they'll be ready to go and start again in the morning to official start their mission.
(Four Hour Skip, at 8:30 P.M.)
Wendy noticed it was getting really dark out and looked out the window to check if the moon was out, and by great Mavis It was out giving off a beautiful and trance-like glow.
"Hey guys we can go out and find our client's house now let's go" Wendy said happily.
"Ok guys we have to take our important stuff with us everything else needs to be left behind so it won't drag us down, everybody got that?" Lucy said with a serious and stern voice making her sound like a leader or Erza.
"Aye" Everybody nodded knowing what they needed to do.
"Ok then let's get going and find this house and defeat DemonWolf for good" Lucy said smiling while walking out with the rest of her team following right behind.
They all entered a room where there client was and knocked on his door so they could talk to him, but for some reason it didn't work because nobody opened the door for them plus Lucy and Wendy didn't hear anyone come at the door.
Lucy knocked on the door a little harder "Hello is anybody in there, we're mages from Fairy Tail and we here for the job that you sent out so we could help you with" Lucy shouted so that anyone on the other side could hear them.
They all waited for a good five minutes until Lucy heard someone coming down stairs quickly but also quietly probably making sure if it's safe or not to open.
"Are you all really the mages from Fairy Tail?" the man asked nervously behind the door.
"Yes we are" Lucy answered.
The man opened the door slowly looking out of it to see them standing there smiling at him.
"Let me see your guild marks" He asked quickly.
"Ok" Wendy said everyone pulled a piece of clothing or showing a part of their skin to the man to make him assured that they were really Fairy Tail mages.
The man gave out soft sigh of relief he closed the door then opened with a bright smile covering his face surprising the three girls and their exceeds.
"Welcome I'm so grateful that you all took this mission, please come in and sit down so I can tell you what's been going on in our village" The man walked away letting the girls come in and finding a seat in the living room.
"Let me introduce myself, my name is Lucas Moon I'm the mayor or village leader here" Lucas bowed his head and looked at the girls "And what are your names?" he asked.
"Hello my name is Lucy Heartfilia and this is my team; Wendy Marvell, Annabelle Hikari, Carla and Anna" Lucy introduced everyone and they all bowed at their client in respect.
Lucas smiled "It's a pleasure to meet you all and thank you for helping us here we've been through so much this past couple months" his face frowned in an instant looking down at the floor.
"Tell us what's been going on here so we can help" Lucy said with serious tone.
"Yes of course, well it started about two to three months ago when a mysterious guild made It somewhere near our village but no one could tell where it was or where even it came from but it started taking our food supplies and other important materials then it started to slowly take people in the middle night making them disappear into the forest without a trace" Lucas explained to the girls, they looked at each other worriedly at first but then looked at how sad Lucas was looking that they knew they had to do whatever they could to finish this mission at all cost.
"We'll get right on it, I promise that we will get back your people and get rid of this dark guild" Lucy said with determination while getting up with the rest of her team.
"Thank you so much, here is a map that leads to the area where the guild is supposed to be" Lucas handing them a map to the forest in the area.
Lucy looked at it strangely and Lucas too "Wait I thought you guys didn't know where the guild was?" Lucy looked at Lucas suspiciously.
"One of the men were being taken away somehow broke away from the weird trance that he was in and was saw the guild in sight, he ran away to tell us but when we rushed over there it wasn't there or was hidden in complete sight from anyone who was on the other side of it" Lucas explained making everyone relax a little more but still kept on their toes.
"Ok we're off now we'll come back when we finish capturing the dark guild members, but until then goodbye for now" Lucy said walking out of the building with Wendy and the others walking behind her out to the forest where the dark guild is hiding.
(30 minute Skip)
Team Mystic Force was walking into the forest they came into the area where the dark guild was supposed to be standing in the middle of a small clearing with of course nothing there.
Everyone started to shoot ideas about where the guild could be and Lucy got a wonderful idea and with the help of one of her new spirit she would be able to find this mysterious dark guild.
"Open Gate of the Sculptor: Riccardo" Lucy said with a yellow flash of light appearing in front of her.
There stood an average muscular man with ivory skin, pitch black short hair in spikes with beautiful light green eyes, a blank paperboard on his left hand while he had different colored paints on a brown tray on his right hand and he was wearing a tight white t-shirt with paints splattered all over it also with long gray pants in the same condition as his shirt.
Riccardo smiled at his master and bowed respectfully "Hello Princess, what do you need me to help you with?" Riccardo bent down on one knee and kissed her hand making Wendy and Annabelle blush softly but not shaking Lucy's persona one bit.
"Hello Riccardo I have a favor I need you to do for me" Lucy said calmly to her spirit.
"Anything for you" Riccardo giving off a charming smile.
"Could you try to paint the dark guild that is in this area by using your magic?" Lucy asked him.
"Of course" Riccardo looked at the empty space and closed his eyes to concentrate on what was 'really' in front of him with his magic.
In an instant he was painting rapidly on his blank canvas which now was being filled with different colors and shapes that would reveal the identity of the mysterious dark guild hiding behind plain sight.
Riccardo was painting for five minutes until he was finally finished and showed Lucy and the others what the dark guild looked like in front of them.
The guild was a regular sized guild that was big but it wasn't so big in height; it had three cones which had flags on the top of each one, two large black doors in the front and a couple windows around the building, had old castle like blocks for the walls, two wolves made out of dark metal and had the wolves look like they were howling, and finally a big flag with a wolf with blood red eyes and a sinister toothy grin on its face. In most words it looked like a terrifying guild to go up to but they had to finish their job to defeat the guild.
"Thanks Riccardo and also could dispel the spell that was put on the guild for us please" Lucy asked Riccardo which of course gave her a charming smile again.
"You got it" He held up his paintbrush in the air and started writing different kind of runes and then swiping at the floating words making the terrifying picture of the guild to life right in front of them.
Of course everyone was spooked at first but they knew what they had to do so they swallowed their fear and started to figure out a plan to take out this dark guild.
After about ten minutes of deciding and planning they finally had a plan of attack "Ok here's the plan guys; Wendy, Carla and Annabelle will go in the back of the guild to stop anyone from escaping while me and Anna will charge in the front to take them down, it'll surprise them and take them out little by little, after we're done with the guild members we'll go after the guild master and if you finish your side early you can go after the master but only for a diversion nothing else ok got it?" Lucy explained and looked at everyone sternly, they all nodded ready to set out their plan in motion.
Everyone went to their assigned areas and prepared for battle, Lucy and Anna walk up to the guild and look at each other and respond to each other a simple nod with Lucy kicking the guild doors open shocking the people in the guild.
"Hey I was here to find a dark guild that was somewhere close to this village, could you show me the way so I can personally destroy it" Lucy said in a cheerful and sarcastic tone.
The guild members were furious at the sudden outburst from the blonde.
"Oh so nobody knows, ok let me start with YOU!" Lucy looked over a random guild member and she pulled out her whip at him pulling him up, twirling him around in the air and slamming him harshly to the ground in the middle of the guild members and her.
"Now I'm not going to ask again, now somebody answer my question or get beaten to pulp" Lucy said in a threatening and dangerously calm voice making some of the dark guild members shiver in fear and the others red with rage.
"Everyone let's get this dumb broad and show her what DemonWolf is all about" A brown haired male with muscular physique and a handsome face, if he wasn't a dark guild member Lucy would go out with him by his looks but of course because of how Lucy's love life has been doing horribly lately I don't think that would happen even if it was possible.
The entire guild cheered proudly and running off to attack Lucy head on, Lucy stood there smiling softly to herself about what was going to happen to them soon enough.
They were about couple feet away from Lucy until an attack blasted them away "Dragon's Starlight Slash!" Anna came from behind Lucy with a bright dazzling sword in her hands also standing in her battle/human form right next Lucy smiling slightly.
The guild was taken back at the appearance of another person and the power that she wielded in that sword of hers.
"Now boys, this is where the fun really begins" Lucy smiling with excitement.
"Open Gate of the Holy Knight, Gate of the Demon Soldier, Gate of the Wolf, and Gate of the Lion: Han-Yin, Don-Yang, Lupus, and Loke!" Lucy called her spirits with flashes of light surrounding her.
There was Loke with nice suit on and Lucy's new spirits; Lupus was a raven colored wolf that was the size of a horse with a little bit more size to him and he was also could change into a human form which was a handsome and muscular guy with washboard abs and strong arms with a beautiful face and amazing raven hair.
Han-Yin was a handsome and lean muscular guy with snow white hair and obsidian eyes with pure white armor that shinned like the sun with a sun crest in the middle of his armor and a halo over top of the sun also with a pure white and gold sword hanging by his side.
Don-Yang was a the complete opposite of Han-Yin he was also handsome and lean muscular kind of guy but with dark black hair with sliver white eyes with the same armor as Han-Yin but with different color and different crest on his chest which was a black sun with demon horns on the top of it while he was also holding his pitch midnight black sword that looked demonic and evil when you looked at it.
They all looked ready to have a good fight and to assist their master in anything they need.
Lucy was smirking at the way the guild members looked at her spirits worriedly, she had only have to say one word to them so they can attack and she slowly with enjoyment lacing with her words "Go" all of her spirits charged at the surprised and stunned dark guild members taking out almost half of them with a couple punches, slashes, and attacks from her and her spirits alone.
"Who is this chick?" a random guild member said frantically before getting knocked by Loke's blast.
"I've seen this chick before" Another random guild member started thinking and then the light flashed above his head "I got it! It's that Celestial mage from that guild Fairy Tail, Lucy Heartfilia or some call her the Celestial Princess" he said with bulging wide eyes.
'Hmm who made that name for me, well I have to admit it does sound pretty good' Lucy thought happily at the rumored nickname for her.
"That can't be her, she's way too strong to be her, besides Lucy Heartfilia is a weak mage who hides behind her spirits when she can't fight herself" The guild member who got hit by Loke's blast said.
The air in the room became very tense and killer feeling to it that if anyone said a single word someone was going to die, and the one who was causing it was no other than the 'Celestial Princess' herself Lucy Heartfilia.
She had one of the most dangerous auras that has even been seen almost and even better than Erza's and Mira's aura was put together, she in termed looked like a demon behind those blond locks that was covering her eyes from the others looks.
Most members walked backwards slowly and also her spirits knew what was going to happen next but still stayed a good distance away just to be safe, but out of nowhere another stupid and clueless dark guild member ran up to her with his fist held high ready to punch Lucy but when he tried to she caught his hand with no effort at all still having her hair covering her face.
"Did I hear you correctly just now, I wish you say that again" Lucy stared saying a deep menacing voice while squeezing the random guild member's hand so hard her was wincing with pain showing all over his face.
The dark guild members started cowering in fear of Lucy's evil aura surrounding her body; she lifted her head to show a dangerous glare that could kill, she threw the guy she was holding in the air then jumped into the air also about to use one of moves against him.
"Celestial Dragon's Meteor Claw!" Lucy yelled pulling her leg back kicking full force at the guys back sending him down at the guys who were talking about her and some of the other guild members; it blasted shooting stars and light all over the place hitting anything in close range.
She landed looking at the others still standing with very angry and dangerous expression "If you ever say I'm weak ever again I will have no problem of ending you, permanently" Lucy said with venom coaxing her voice and with every word.
The other surviving members were terrified beyond belief to the point of feeling like death itself was knocking at their front door.
"We need to get out of here right now if we don't we'll be killed for sure" A bald haired guy with small muscles and his guild mark on his neck looking like a scared little girl; the other guild members agreed with the guys logic and started running to the back of the guild so they can make their escape from the blonde demon, but before they could even get out of the door they were blasted with a strong tornado of wind blowing them away and knocking them out instantly.
Lucy turned around smirking to herself putting her hands on her hips "Well it took you long enough, where you've been?"
From the smoke came out Wendy, Carla, and Annabelle in a new armor that had different kind of colored crystals that shinned with all the lights of magic blasting around making her look a dazzling star itself.
"Sorry we took so long we couldn't just leave our post just we could join you for all the fun" Annabelle responded with smile on her face, Wendy started to giggle lightly.
"Well now that you're here lets finish this up and take out the master of this place so we can finish our mission" Lucy said laughing and getting ready.
After that Lucy, Wendy, Annabelle, Carla, and Anna started fighting like never before they took out every last dark guild member they were all piled up groaning and moaning in pain looking like a big ugly mess.
Lucy smiled at the job she did and looked at her team with happiness "Great job guys, now that the flunkies have been taken out we now have to get to the boss and defeat him so we can finally finish this mission for good" Lucy said with determination, everyone nodded in agreement and started to go up the stairs trying to find the master of the dark guild.
Lucy stopped when running through the halls with everyone and caught a scent that seemed really familiar to her before for some reason, making the others look at her worriedly
"Hey Wendy do you smell that?" Lucy asked sniffing the air again, Wendy took a quick whiff and her eyes narrowed a little in confusion.
"Yea I smell it but for some reason I can't what that smell is" Wendy said sadly.
"Well for me it smell very familiar, I just can't put my finger on it but I know it somewhere-"Lucy stopped when she saw a dark shadow flying with incredible speed towards them.
"Get down!" Lucy said to everyone and they followed what she said also seeing the dark shadow go by.
"What was that?" Annabelle asked shaking with terror and Lucy with wide eyes.
"I don't know but I think we need to move before it comes back" Lucy said while getting up again but before she could even take one step she was blasted into the wall crashing into to two walls before she landed in a random room laid out painfully on the floor with debris all over her.
"Lucy!" Wendy and the others called out while rushing over to her, they looked at her worried to no end but soon calmed down when they started to see her trying to get up again.
"W-What the heck just hit me, ugh I feel like I got hit by a truck and then some" Lucy said holding her head while her friends got her up on her feet.
Suddenly a strange and dark laughter filled the mysterious room making Lucy and the others jump standing back to back in every angle trying to find the source of the weird laughter.
"Hahahaha I'm impressed; I didn't think that a bunch of weak and silly little girls could actually take out my entire group of mages in such a short amount of time, I should've gave you more credit than I had before" The mysterious deep man voice said playfully.
Lucy started to growl lowly "Who are you? And why are you attacking all those innocent people in this village?" Lucy asked with anger.
Soft chuckling came from the mysterious deep man voice "Because I was looking for something that I've been trying to find for a long time now" he said laughing.
"What have you been looking for that would have to put the people in danger and steal random people from this village?" Lucy asked again a little more calmed but still very furious tone.
"Annabelle and You" The mysterious deep man said with such a serious voice that it sent shivers down Lucy's and Annabelle's spines instantly.
"What" Lucy and Annabelle said with shock all over both of their faces and the others had all of their jaws dropping.
"You two have the power I need to take over this world and if you would please hand it over I would be happy" A strange shadow appeared and turned into a man with scarlet red hair that went down to his upper shoulders, with a black jacket, black combo pants, and black combat laced boots and his eyes were an emerald green.
"Who are you? And how do you know who we are?" Lucy asked while partially backing up.
"Doesn't matter how I know you it only matters that I want your powers, so I'll ask this one last time give me you powers now" The redhead said.
"I don't know who the hell you are but Annabelle or me would never give our powers to someone like you" Lucy spoke with venom for every word and having Annabelle and the others glare at him.
The redhead sighed in disappointment shaking his head slowly "What a shame I didn't think I would have to do this hard way but you leave me no choice at the matter, I need your powers and I intend to get them one way or another" The redhead man started having shadows surrounding his body and his eyes glowing dark green.
The redhead man's hands started glowing a violet color before three shadow figures appeared in front of him scaring Wendy, Anna, Annabelle, Carla, and even Lucy was shaking in the knees a little.
Three dark shadow wolves formed and when they opened their eyes they had these demon red eyes that were filled with pure evil and death, those same familiar eyes that Lucy and Annabelle saw that very day.
Annabelle was trembling in fear at the sight before her the same vicious wolves she saw that day were right in front of her and she finally snapped "NOOOOOO!" Annabelle yelled holding her head in her hands falling into fetal position crying heavily and hyperventilating.
Wendy crouched to Annabelle's level to see what was wrong with her "Annabelle, Annabelle are you all right?" Wendy asked worriedly.
"There here, there here again those eyes they have those same eyes" Annabelle kept muttering to herself over and over again with her eyes wide open that were filled with terror and under fear.
Wendy and the others were worried for her and was going to ask Lucy if she could help "Lucy I don't know what's going on with Annabelle but could-" Wendy's sentenced silenced immediately her eyes wide seeing the look on Lucy's face.
Lucy's eyes were wide open just staring at the mysterious redhead man in front of her with the shadow demon wolves growling dangerously at her and her friends; Lucy couldn't believe after two years of meeting Annabelle she never ever thought that they would both see those wolves again until now.
A deep penetrating laugh shook her out of her thoughts and looking at the man in front of her, the man kept laughing evilly making Lucy growl at him and her eyes were starting to turn feral (Blue).
"I can't believe it after all that time you actually still remember those wolves I sent out to attack and capture Annabelle, I'm touched I'll give you my name just a little gift before I destroy and take your powers by force" The mysterious redhead said laughing evilly again.
Lucy was beyond pissed at the moment and was ready to bash his head in like a certain fire dragonslayer would do but she pushed the thought to the back of her head and continued to listen to the conceded jerk.
"My names is Orgon Darkwing at your service and I'm here to get the powers of the Heartfilia's" Orgon said bowing down in front of her.
"That's great to know and all but if you think that's going to stop you from getting your ass kicked then you thought wrong" Lucy said inhaling some air for a second to release her attack on him.
"Celestial Dragon's Roar!" Lucy opened her mouth and a brilliant beam of yellow light with stars surrounding it shot right in the direction of Orgon and his wolves in blinding speed.
Orgon chuckled softly he disappeared within the shadows also with his wolves and the blast completely missing them.
Lucy sensed that they dodged her attack she stated checking the area but then an idea came to mind "Gate of the Crow: Crovus" Lucy called her spirit with a violet beam of light appeared in front of her with man who was wearing dark combat jeans, black combat boots, black leather jacket and raven colored shirt with a crow on the front of it, at long black cape, and his hair in a small high ponytail with one long strand of hair covering one eye that were crimson blood red.
"Hey Crov I need to you to find Orgon and his wolves in the shadows, can you do that for me?" Lucy asked her spirit.
Crovus nodded "Yes, I'll find him right now immediately" He said while falling into the darkness searching for Orgon.
After a while Crovus and Orgon came out fighting each other but Orgon punched Crovus away knocking him on the floor.
"I have no time for your silly games anymore I came here to get the power I need and I'll get it whatever the cost" Orgon said he looked in Annabelle's direction and shot a dark energy wave at her.
Lucy noticed who Orgon was going to but she couldn't get there in time it was too quick so she cried out "Annabelle watch out!"
Annabelle looked up but it was too late the blast hit her dead on completely consuming her slowly while she laid there unconscious with a gasping Wendy and total stunned Anna and Carla.
Lucy was frozen not able to move; it felt like she couldn't breathe and when she did the only thing that came out was blood-curdling scream "NOOOOOOOOOO!"
"Well that takes care of that my shadows will drain every last bit of her magic completely and I'll finally get the-" Orgon was stopped when a glowing fist full of stars hit him square in the face making him fly and crashing into the wall.
Orgon got up rubbing the spot where he was last punched and then for once in his dark life he saw what death actually looked like when he saw Lucy's face.
Lucy her face went feral; she was clenching her fist so tightly that you could hear her the bones in her hands crunching at how hard she was holding them like that, her teeth were making a grinding noise, and the facial expression on her face could kill she looked like a dragon that you anger to the point of no return, her hair was floating in the air and her eyes turned blue that was ice cold. In simpler ways she was going to fucking kill someone.
"You can beat me down, you can say anything you want to me, but the one thing I will never let you is hurt the people I love" Lucy flashed with a new form of power inside of that was shaking the building with the pressure that was radiating from her body.
"I will defeat you if takes everything in my power to, I won't let you hurt anyone anymore this ends, now!" Lucy rushed over covered in yellow light with starlight surrounding her body with incredible speed.
Orgon was to surprise at what was going on and got knocked around the place by Lucy's punches and kicks that was doing a number on him every minute he got hit.
Lucy stopped her assault seeing Orgon looking beat up but still going, she decided to finish this fight so she can help Wendy before it's too late, she raised her magic a little so she can summon one of her spirits that she hasn't summoned in a long time.
"Open Gate of the Goddess of White Light: Aphrillo!" Lucy yelled she requiped a bright yellow key with a small star in the middle of a sun, it started glowing with a blinding yellowish white light, it faded away leaving a beautiful blonde haired woman with a gorgeous simple white dress that went down to her ankles that had pretty and mysterious designs on the lower half of the dress, she had a gold bracelet wrapped around her arm on both arms, she had two parts of her hair braided on the top connected by a white Lillie and having the rest of her straight and wavy down to her hips making her look absolutely amazing.
Aphrillo turned and looked at her master "Yes Princess Lucy, do you need anything?" She asked in a nice silky voice that sounded so sweet and pretty.
"Yea I need you to put up a light spell that takes down any form of dark or shadow magic in this area and I need you to help me fight this guy here, could you do that" Lucy asked and Aphrillo nodded in agreement.
"Blinding Ray of Sunlight" Aphrillo called out with her hands spread wide in the air making the whole room brightened with a warm and intense light.
Orgon and the others cover their eyes "Damnit that light is too strong" Orgon said.
"Ok Aphrillo now!" Lucy called out.
"Right! Heavenly Light Burst!" Aphrillo flashed beam of light at Orgon and his shadow wolves completely disintegrating them and blasting Orgon to wall.
Orgon gets up again with a glare but couldn't really tell with his face so beaten up and his clothes dirty and partially ripped, he stood up wobbling at first then he started surrounding himself with dark shadows.
"I will not be humiliated by some useless child, I don't care if you live or die I only want the magic that you have and I'll get even if I have to strip you of being a mage ever again" Orgon yelled charging his dark magic making it go to full power with the feeling of death all around it.
Lucy felt the power spike coming from Orgon so she decided that she should also finish this, she looked at Aphrillo which she looked like she had the same idea so they linked hands and let both of their power rise.
Wendy was healing Annabelle while Anna and Carla tried everything to stay alert and protect the two while Lucy fought against Orgon and his magic.
"I won't let you hurt my friends anymore than you already have so let's finish this Orgon, once and for all" Lucy said her hair flowing with Aphrillo's magic surging throughout the room.
They all stood there looking at each other to wait for the other to make a move, they both charged their magic full blast and were going to end this with one final attack.
"Shadow Art: Dark Chaotic Monster Rampage!" Orgon yelled out summoning mixture of dark shadow spirits that looked like scary and dangerous monsters coming towards her and Aphrillo.
"Unison Raid: Heavenly Celestial Holy Star Light Ray!" Lucy and Aphrillo screamed raising their hands up with a bursting beam of light that incased them completely with stars, stardust, yellow and white balls of light, and planets circling around the beam then shooting in all direction giving off a warm and powerful feeling from the heavens up above.
Both attacks collided with each other pushing the other one back with all their strength.
Lucy was losing her magic rapidly but Aphrillo kept her going and they both pushed and boosted their powers pushing Orgon's spell back destroying his monsters and shooting right towards him.
Orgon was surprised and terrified at the attack coming towards him he did something before it hit him but making a huge explosion blowing up the roof of the building having a beam of beautiful yellow light shot up into the sky and the room covered in smoke.
When the smoked cleared there stood an exhausted Lucy and a slightly tired Aphrillo holding each other and a harshly beaten subconscious Orgon laying on the floor breathing heavily with blood going down his eyes and down his mouth.
Lucy smirked and started chuckling lowly "That's what you get Orgon; you're bruised, beaten, and you lost so just surrender now" Lucy said panting.
Orgon weakly laughed "You might of won today but that doesn't mean you won next time we met and I promise you that day will come again and I will get that power that I was seeking before, the Heartfilia power will be mine" Orgon said while slowly letting shadows take over his body sinking through the floor, Lucy panicked she started dashing over to him but he already sunk through the floor and she punched the area he was in with her fist out of frustration.
"Damnit I let him get away" Lucy gritted her fang like teeth together but felt a hand on her shoulder making her look up to see Aphrillo smiling down at her.
"Lucy don't worry about it you'll get him next time but just be glad you saved your friends from getting hurt anymore from him, now come on we have to go and check on your friend Annabelle" Aphrillo gave her hand out to her which Lucy took gladly still a little wobbly from using so much magic in one day like last time but way worse.
Lucy walked over and sat next to Annabelle who still had shadows all over her body worrying Lucy and the others greatly wondering what will happen to their teammate and friend.
"How is she Wendy, is she going to be ok?" Lucy asked looking down at Annabelle.
"She'll be fine but for some reason the shadows won't leave her, I tried everything to get rid of them but they won't go away" Wendy explained sadly.
"Let me take a look I might be able to figure out what's wrong with her" Aphrillo got in front of Annabelle's body and put her hands in front of her while a glowing light shinned on Annabelle's chest.
After a few minutes she stopped trying to heal her and Aphrillo looked at everyone then directly at Lucy "Princess could you summon Haden he might be able to fully explain what's going on with Annabelle" Aphrillo asked.
"Ok that sounds like a great idea" Lucy said smiling, she focused her magic that would take most of it after she summoned him.
"Open Gate of the God of Shadows: Haden!" Lucy said with a dark violet light shinned and appearing a man in front of them making Wendy flinch in fear and Anna partially glaring at him.
Haden was fully muscular man with big biceps and had a tight raven muscle sleeveless shirt that showed his rock hard abs but still covered with a black jacket with spikes on the sides of it and black fingerless gloves, he also had black skinny jeans that fit comfortably over his leg muscles plus with laced black combat boots, he wore a silver necklace with skull and crossbones with demon wings on the side of its head. He had slightly tanned skin with tattoos of mysterious designs over his arm and parts of his neck that was mostly covered with his long slick black hair that went down his shoulders, in most ways he would be deemed hot but his eyes said otherwise; they were black obsidian with crimson blood red mixed with it making look like he was ready to kill you with a just a stare and nothing more.
"Hey Haden what's up?" Lucy asked bubbly with a smile.
Haden turned around with a glare directly at her scarring the others but not Lucy, Anna, and Aphrillo.
"What?" Haden asked in a deep menacing voice.
"Don't give me that I need you to find out what's wrong with my friend" Lucy asked him.
Haden growled at Lucy who also glared and growled back "Why?" He asked again but for some reason a calmer voice.
"Please friend could be possibly dying and I need your help to save her" Lucy said while giving him the puppy dog eyes and trembling bottom lip.
Haden looked at her then he sighed giving in to his master's face "I'll do it" He walked over to her inspecting Annabelle while Lucy cheered victoriously at her accomplishment.
Haden stopped looking at Annabelle and went over to Lucy to tell her the news "Those shadows that are around her are actually hers, someway she actually had dark magic inside of her and the best part is she's actually a dragonslayer" Haden said looking at Annabelle's sleeping form.
Lucy and the others gasped while Aphrillo smiled knowing now what the real reason behind those shadows around her and why she had it like that.
"No way, but how can she be a dragonslayer?" Lucy asked Haden, he shrugged his shoulders not knowing himself "I don't know just know she must be the dark dragonslayer and also I sense another dragonslayer power in her but it seems locked, I don't know" Haden explained and not caring about the situation at all he told Lucy 'Bye' and flashed out leaving everyone to wonder how is Annabelle a dragonslayer.
"I can't believe this, what are we supposed to tell Annabelle when she wakes up?" Wendy asked everyone.
"We'll tell her the truth and besides" Lucy paused to look at Annabelle "She already looks like she's changing in facial features" Lucy pointed out to her face which her teeth were growing fang like, and her hair looked lighter brown for some reason.
"When she awakes we'll tell her what happened but for now we have to go back to the mayor and bring back the dark guild members and ask them where did they hide the people and other things they stole" Lucy said to everyone which they all nodded in agreement.
"I'll be leaving Princess but here some light to replenish your magic and energy" Aphrillo threw Lucy some orbs of light and she ate all of them happily feeling fully refreshed while her spirit disappeared.
They got all the guys up but woke one up to tell us where the people were and stuff but of course they were stubborn so Lucy had to death glare them to tell and also knocking them out for not telling them right away in the first place.
Lucy summoned Virgo and Taurus; Taurus to carry the guys while Virgo destroys the guild and proceed to leave and go to get their reward for the mission.
(Lucy's POV)
We all walked through the building with the group of knocked out dark guild members, captured villagers, and stolen supplies that they wanted for the mission Mayor Lucas Moon was so was so grateful for helping his village he added 30,000J more to the reward dividing by three equaled 140,000J each so it was an awesome reward; plus we were also given the other stuff from the reward.
When Annabelle woke up and we explained everything to her what happened and about her secret power, she was shocked beyond belief but she believed when we told her to concentrate on the shadows that hit her and then her own shadows was around her hand, she was amazed but was worry how she was going to control her new dragonslaying magic but I told her when we get home one of my spirits was going to help her with controlling it.
We started to practice with our new weapons, Annabelle got three new rare armors; Diamond Crystal Armor, Lunar Eclipse Armor, and Dark Shadow Empress Armor. These armors I've never heard of and maybe Erza has but never got them yet but still all of them are powerful and really fast.
Wendy got two weapons; one was a staff that was sky blue with white designing's wrapping around it, the staff could transfer sky/wind/air magic through it and use it as a weapon which helped her sky dragonslayer magic making new moves.
The second was a whip that had wind wrap around it, it could slice through steel and flowed like a snake following Wendy's commands when asking it to do something for her or attack.
The best part of the staff and whip that the staff could turn into a tattoo so it would it would be easier to take it with you and use it for battle on her left arm and the whip wrapped around her arm with a dragon figure arm bracelet place it on her right arm.
And for me I got a sword and a magical bow; the sword had a similar design to Anna's sword but instead of it being yellow it was like crystal blue, the sword had the power to absorb any form of light magic and use for its own attacks and to transfer magic to me when I get low on magic and it could also enhance all of my powers.
The magic bow it used my power but it only seemed like it only worked for me and Annabelle powers, but it made star like magic arrows with my magic that when it hit with something it blasted and exploded of stars with direct contact while for Annabelle's magic it made black shadow flames that when hit directly covered the thing with the black flames burning them slowing to nothing but ash.
I also got 10 new gate keys which were the Solar System God keys, which are one of the many rarest of gate key collections, I was so totally excited for getting them and so grateful.
The first one was Jupiter the God of Lightning magic, the second one was Pluto the God of Dark magic and father to Haden, the third one was Neptune the God of Water and Ice magic and the father of Aquarius, the fourth one was Mercury the God of Space and Psychic magic, the fifth one was Venus the Goddess of Light magic and mother to Aphrillo, the sixth one was Saturn the God of Time Ark magic, the seventh one was Mars the God of Fire magic, the eighth one was Gaia/Earth the God of Earth and Nature magic, the ninth one was Uranus the God of Heavenly Body magic and the final tenth one was Hyperion the God of Sun magic (He's like the spirit king but he is way stronger than him and higher up in rank, he can use Sun magic and also use the powers of all the Solar System God's power if he wants). They were all powerful and they take way more power and magic to summon them in a fight than what the Zodiac gates took from me.
We all stayed at the village one last night and left the next day feeling more refreshed then before, until we got on the train.
Annabelle was sitting on my lap looking with my hands through her head and she's looking green while panting heavily because the train was moving fast and the dragonslayer conditions coming up, making me laugh at her while she mumbles small curses at me and trying not throw up.
Wendy, Anna, and Carla are sleeping snuggled up together looking absolutely cute but the one thing that I can't get out of my mind is that guy Orgon and what he said.
I don't want to really see him again but if I do I won't hesitate to get rid of him because no one hurts my nakama if I'm able to save them.
I fell asleep having a strange dream about mom and two other kids that looked sort of like me definitely the boy, we were playing in the mansion having fun until an attack came at our house scaring the two kids and also myself we were running away from weird looking bad guys but somehow we escaped.
We saw my mom and she was telling us it would be alright but she was stuffing us all into separate wagons and she put a spell or something on the two kids and then coming over to me and doing the same thing after that the dream ends right there me waking up in the train right outside of Magnolia.
I woke Annabelle and Wendy up so we all of us could get off of the train to go home and celebrate our victory for finishing our mission and get some well needed rest.
(Normal POV)
Team Mystic Force were sleeping the night away enjoying the peace and quiet of their recent mission but at the guild Team Natsu were having trouble seeing if Natsu was still ok from his fight from a week or so ago with Lucy.
Natsu was sleeping in the infirmary actually soundly until he started to stir for a second his face crinkling together and he started to mumble something slowly.
"Lucy… I'm sorry….I…miss you" Natsu said sadly while turning over going right back to sleep.
What could of possibly made Natsu say that in his sleep and why would he think of Lucy, well you have to see next time.
