Chapter 9

They've been back in Bosco for a week. Everyone was moved into their new places. They were sitting at the guild talking about the mission they were getting ready to go on. Cris and Emi joined them, since they needed an established member with them for their first mission. The mission shouldn't take them too long, it was to take out a dark guild and a couple wyverns. The dark guild was on the outskirts of Pelerno, hidden in the forest. They decided to leave after lunch, get a hotel to stay in and scout the area to figure out how many members the dark guild had.

Cris and Laxus teleported everyone to Pelerno. They went to a hotel and got a couple rooms. After getting checked in and talking with the shop keeper, who put in the request, they went to scout the area and find out where the dark guild was hiding. It took a couple hours before they found the dark guild.

"How many mages do you hear?" Bix asked Cris.

"At least 20."

"I don't see the wyverns." Lucy said.

"I can smell them. They are close by." Laxus said. They stopped to grab some food before heading back to the hotel. After they ate, they started to come up with a plan. Freed would put up runes to make sure the dark guild couldn't leave the area. Then Laxus, Emi and Bix would go after the wyverns while the others took out the dark mages. Lucy would call out Taurus to help them with the wyverns. Then call out Loke and Virgo to help with the mages. After finishing their plan, they all got some sleep.

In the morning, they ate a quick breakfast, then headed out to take care of the dark guild. Freed quickly got the runes put up, if a mage tried to escape, they would hit the barrier and get hit with a pain rune. Laxus, Emi, Bix and Taurus went to take care of the wyverns. Lucy called out Virgo and Loke. She equipped her Virgo star dress. They quietly made their way into the hideout. Lucy had Virgo tunnel into the ground and pull the five that were in the back. Loke hit one with his Regulus punch. Cris took down three quickly. Lucy took out her whip and was fighting against a mage. Freed cast pain and despair runes on the ones closest to him. The dark mages quickly started fighting back, using their magic. Freed put a reflect shield around himself. Cris was able to dodge the attacks, and knock the mages out with one hit.

Virgo went around and put magic canceling cuffs on the mages that had been knocked out. The mage Lucy was fighting pulled out a knife that had a purple glow to it. Lucy used her whip to knock the knife out of his hand, the mage was quick and caught her whip and used it to pull Lucy to him. He quickly stabbed her in the side. Lucy gasped, gave the mage a Lucy kick into a wall, knocking him out. Lucy pulled the knife out and dropped it. She put pressure against the wound, as she started to feel a little dizzy. Virgo got all the mages in the magic canceling cuffs. Cris quickly made it to Lucy, checking her side and healing her. Thankfully his healing ability also neutralized the poison.

"Thanks Cris." Lucy said.

"You don't have to thank me, Starlight."

"Let's go check on the others." Freed said. They nodded and went to see if the others needed help. Virgo and Loke stayed to watch over the mages. As they walked out of the hideout, Laxus and the others were walking towards them. Lucy closed Taurus's gate after thanking him for helping.

"Wyverns are taken care of. Thankfully they weren't full grown." Emi said. Cris nodded and called the rune knights to come take away the dark mages. Lucy sent Virgo and Loke back. She was trying her best to not fall over. Even though she was healed, she felt tired from the poison. She was also tired from the amount of magic that she used keeping three gates open, and using her whip. Don't show how weak you're feeling, come on Lucy, you can do this. I'm strong, I will not show how tired I am either.

The rune knights came and took the dark mages away. They headed back to report to the shop keeper that the dark mages and wyverns had been taken care of. They were walking back to the hotel when Lucy's vision went blurry and she started to fall over as she lost consciousness.

"Lucy!" Cris yelled as he caught her. Cris checked her over to make sure the poison was gone. He checked her pulse, and it was steady. He let out a sigh of relief. "I think she used too much of her magic. She did have three golden gates open. Let's get back to the hotel. It could also be the lingering side effect from the poison." Everyone nodded and headed back to the hotel. Once there Cris laid Lucy on their bed.

"Blondie was poisoned?"

"The mage she was fighting pulled out a knife and stabbed her, the knife had poison on it. I was able to heal her and the poison."

"I think we should train her. I know it won't stop her from getting injured, but could help her more. I know she has her Lucy kick, which does fucking hurt." Laxus said.

"I think that's a great idea. I can teach her acrobatics." Bix said.

"Lulu and I can meditate together. I know that can help her magic containers expand."

"I'll have her workout with me." Cris said. "I hope that she will want to do this."

"I think she will. She used to ask her old team, but they never would train her. They always said she had them to protect her." Ever said.

"We can bring it up to her when she wakes up. Let's order some food." Freed said.

"Starlight?" Cris gently shook her shoulder to wake her up. Lucy slowly started to wake up. She realized that she was back at the hotel. She groaned.

"I'm sorry guys. I didn't mean to pass out on you guys."

"It's okay, you should have told me you were feeling tired. I could have carried you back."

"I know, I wanted to show that I'm not weak." She said as she looked down.

"Lulu! You are not weak. You had three gold gates open through the whole mission. We know that takes a lot of magic to do that. How would you like to train with us? You and I can meditate together in the evenings and work on your magic containers."

"I'd love that Ever!"

"Blondie, I can work on hand-to-hand combat with you."

Lucy looked at Cris, "Well, it was nice knowing you." Everyone laughed, Laxus glared at her even though he was smirking. "I'd like that Laxus, thank you."

"We can make a schedule when we get back. Would you like to work out with me?" Cris asked.

"Sure! I'll work out with you."

"Okay, time for food. What should we get?"

"I'd like a burger." Lucy said. Everyone said that did sound good. Laxus and Bix went down the street to the diner to order everyone's food. After everyone finished eating, some decided to go baths at the hotel.

Laxus and Cris teleported everyone back to the guild in the morning. They went to report to Kaleb. He was proud of how they did. They talked with him about training with Lucy, and getting a schedule set up and reserved a practice arena. Lucy was excited to start training.

Lucy and Ever decided to spend the rest of the day relaxing in their apartment watching Sailor Moon. They were almost to the end of season three. They both agreed that Mistress Nine was one of their favorite villains. They decided to take a break from Sailor Moon and watch Snow White with the Red Hair.

"This is such a cute anime! I'm glad that we like the same kinds of anime!" Lucy said.

"I agree, this is adorable. I know! It's nice that we have so much in common." Ever smiled. There was a knock on the door. They paused the show, and Lucy went to answer the door. She was happy to see that it was Cris and Farron.

"Hey guys, come on in! Ever, Farron is here!"

"What have you guys been doing?" Cris asked.

"Watching anime. We watched some Sailor Moon, and now we are watching Snow White with the Red Hair." Lucy said.

"Mind if we hang out and watch with you guys?" Farron asked.

"I'm okay with that. We aren't very fair into this anime, so we can start it from the beginning!" Ever said.

"Would you guys like anything to drink?" Lucy asked. Farron said he would like a water. Ever wanted a sparkling water. Cris went with Lucy to help and to pick what he wanted to drink.

"Lucy, would you like to go on a date with me tomorrow?"

"I'd love to!" Cris smiled and gave her a kiss before they went to join Ever and Farron. They spent the evening hanging out, ordered some pizza for dinner, and played a couple games. Lucy and Ever asked the guys to stay the night. Farron asked Ever to go on a date, she said she would love to.

"I have an idea! Cris asked me on a date too! What if we did a double date?" Lucy asked excitedly.

"I'd love that! Would you guys be okay with a double date?" Ever asked. Both nodded with a smile and the girls squealed with happiness. They talked about what they would do for the date, and where to eat. Once they had it planned out, they all went to bed.

Lucy, Cris, Ever and Farron were playing miniature golf. Lucy had never played but caught on quickly, and it helped that Cris was a great teacher. He also made sure to tease her, once she got the hang of playing. He'd press up against her to distract her, smack her ass, or kiss her. Once they finished playing, they went to grab some food at a pub. After eating they decided to separate for some time alone with each other.

"Cris, can I ask you something?"

"Of course, Starlight."

"When would you like to become mates?"

"I'm ready, but I will wait until you are ready Starlight. I won't pressure you into mating." She smiled at him and put her head on his arm. He kissed the top of her head.

"I'm ready to become your mate. I love you and I don't want to wait anymore. You telling me that you would wait until I was ready helped me make my decision. You make me feel whole again." He quickly picked her up with a grin, and teleported them to his house.

"You might want to call Ever and let her know you won't be home for a week or two. I'm going to call dad and let him know, so he won't worry about us." Lucy blushed but nodded and called Ever to tell her. Ever squealed her excitement, and said she would see her in a few weeks. Lucy then went to the bathroom and called out Virgo.

"Punishment, Princess?"

"No Virgo, I want some sexy lingerie to wear to surprise Cris."

"I have just the thing, I'll be right back Princess." She came back and quickly changed Lucy. Lucy looked in the mirror and gasped.

"This is gorgeous Virgo, thank you!" Virgo bowed before going back to the spirit realm. Lucy was wearing lace blue thong, garters with black thigh high lace tights, and a bra that crossed before her in the front below the neck and ties in back. She loved how the bra had a heart shape cut out that showed a generous amount of her breasts. After taking a deep breath, she left the bathroom to look for Cris. She found him in the living room, he had just got done talking to Kaleb. She walked around and stood in front of him. "What do you think?" She did a slow spin for him.

Hunger shown in his eyes as he said, "Starlight, you look breath takingly sexy." He went to grab her hips and pull her to him, she danced out of his grasp and giggled. "Starlight." He growled.

"Yes, love." She asked with a smile. He crooked his finger at her, telling her to come to him. She bit her lip and slowly sauntered to him. Right when she got in reach and he went to grab her, she danced away again. He growled at her as he got up and stalked towards her. His dragon purring at the game she was playing with him. She took a step back for every step he took towards her, a smile on her face. She noticed he was trying to get her to the wall. As soon as she was a few steps away, she did a spin to the side, and walked backwards watching him as she put the couch between them. "Looks like the big bad dragon slayer is off his game." She smirked.

He turned to her, smirking and licked his bottom lip. "Oh, Starlight. You won't get away from me this time." He started to stalk towards her, she giggled and quickly took off down the hallway. She looked behind her to see if he was following but didn't see him. Suddenly arms wrapped around her waist. "You're mine." He purred, leaning down and nuzzling her neck. She tilted her head back.

"Yes, I am yours." He grabbed her thighs lifting her up, she wrapped her legs around his waist as he took them to his bedroom. She kissed and nipped up his neck, then lightly bit his earlobe. His hands slid up and squeezed her ass making her moan. He kissed her hungerly, having her slide down his body once they got to the bedroom. Smirking, she slowly got on the bed and got on her knees facing him. "Your clothes need to come off." She grabbed his shirt, pulling it up and off, dropping it to the floor. She ran her finger tips down his chest and stomach followed by her mouth leaving kisses and bites. She unbuttoned and unzipped his pants, pulling them down along with his boxers. She licked her lips once his cock sprung free. She wrapped her hand around it, slowly pumping up and down feeling him harden even more. She licked the tip, swirling her tongue around it, and then sucking him into her mouth.

"Starlight." He groaned. Grabbing her hair and watching as she deep throated him. She put her hands on his hip and pulled him forward, trying to get him to fuck her mouth. He starts to thrust his hips while she sucked and licked his cock. She lightly drags her teeth along his cock, causing him to growl and thrust faster. He pulls out, not wanting to finish in her mouth. He runs his thumb under her bottom lip wiping away the spit. "I absolutely enjoyed that, when I finish, I want it to be in here." He cups her pussy, causing her to gasp. "Now you are wearing too much." He grabbed her bra ripping it off her.

"Cris!" She moans as he slides his hands up her stomach and palms her breasts, squeezing them then rolling and pinching her nipples between his fingers. Her hands grab his arms as she arches her back. He leans down sucking a nipple into his mouth, flicking it with his tongue and biting it. His dragon purring at the sounds she was making just for him. He switched to give the other breast the same attention. He runs his hands down her sides grabbing her underwear, and pulling to rip it off her. She opens her mouth to scold him, but he smirks running his finger along the slit of her pussy.

"Starlight, you are soaked." He groans while pushing a finger into her. Thumb rubbing on her clit, she starts to move her hips against his hand. He adds a second finger, and starts to pump faster, while scissoring his fingers. She lets out a long moan. She kisses him, shoving her tongue into his mouth. "Lay down on your back and spread your legs."

She lays down, and before she can spread her legs, he gently grabs them and slides off her tights. He runs his hands slowly up her legs, spreading them as he does. "This is better, I love the feel of your skin, so smooth." He kisses and nips at her thighs. He flattens his tongue against her pussy and slowly licks up to the top. Groaning at her taste. Her head falls back as she moans. He flicks her clit with his tongue before sucking on it, and pumping two fingers in and out. He slowly adds another finger, wanting to stretch her so it won't hurt her as much when he puts his cock in.

"C-Cris. So good." She moans, moving her hips against his face and fingers. She could feel her orgasm building. He groans against her clit feeling her walls clamp down on his fingers. He bends his fingers, hitting a sweet spot that makes her moan loudly and grabs his hair. He can tell she is getting close. He bites her clit while hitting that sweet spot. She moans his name as she comes on his fingers. He removes his fingers and licks up her climax. He then sucks his fingers clean. He slowly kisses up her body.

"I love you, Starlight."

"I love you, Cris."

"Are you ready?" He asks. She smiles and nods. He grasps his cock, running it up and down her slit, pushing it between her lips to tease her clit.

"Cris don't tease me." She moans. He smirks and slowly pushes himself, quickly breaking her barrier. She gasps and tenses up some. He kisses her and palms her breast to help relax her. She melts into him, and moves her hips to let him know he can move. He starts moving, kissing down her jaw and neck, nipping and licking. She wraps her legs around his waist, meeting each of his thrusts.

"Gods Starlight, you feel amazing." He growls.

"H-harder, Cris." He happily applies and starts to go faster. Her walls clamp around his cock, he slides a hand down, fingering her clit. She comes around his cock. He starts to move faster, kissing and nipping the junction of her neck and shoulder.

"Come with me Starlight." He growls. After a couple thrusts, they climax and he bites her, marking her as his mate. He licks the spot, watching as it forms a silver star. He smiles and kisses the mark. He smiles and her and kisses her slowly.

"Are we mated now?"

"Yes, you're my mate. But it will be a week before it completely sets in and I'll be okay with you being around others."

"I'm so happy. I feel like I'm whole again."

"I'm happy too. You are perfect Starlight." She kisses him, and he slowly pulls out. He pulls her to back to his chest. "Let's get some rest."

"Sounds good love." They both fall asleep with smiles on their faces.
