The bloom of nature can be a beautiful thing. One flower shop owner understood that as she tended to her lovely flowers. While she was working on her flowers, she was also watching the news about another save of Celestria and Salamondra.
"Once again, Paris is saved thanks to the forces of Celestria and Salamondra." Bisca reported. "They saved us from a depressing and rainy day when this newest villain had the ability to control the weather and brought upon a downpour." The shop owner was glad to hear that. Her phone began to ring and she stopped attending her flowers to take the call.
"Cosmos' flower shop. Cosmos here." The shop owner said. A friend of hers was calling her about something special. "Princess Hisui is visiting Paris? She's at the Allard Hotel! That's great!" She said as she ended the call. "I bet she can help me with my project. With her investment, we can grow and bloom so many beautiful flowers." A real life princess coming to Paris sounds like a great opportunity.
...
Lucy
After another successful mission of stopping a criminal, Celestria was about to change back. She dived down in one subway tunnel and came out through another as Lucy. She was going to be on her way to school when she heard sneezing coming from her purse. She looked inside and saw Stella shivering.
"Stella? What's wrong?" Lucy asked.
"I don't feel very well." Stella said. "All that rain might have given me a cold."
"I didn't know kwamis get colds." Lucy said. She could see that Stella was miserable and wasn't doing well at all. "What can I do?"
"I know a healer who can help." Stella said.
"You mean a doctor?" Lucy said as she didn't understand how one could exist. There was no time to do anything about it. Stella needed help, but she had to get to school when she heard the bell ringing. "I can't cut class. Try to hang in there, Stella. We'll go right after school." Not seeing a way out of this, Lucy tried her best to make Stella comfortable and hurried to school.
...
Cosmos
Cosmos gathered her stuff together to help her see Princess Hisui herself. She even grabbed a lotus-like figurine for a little luck. Cosmos loves flowers and the project she has in mind is to help all the flowers she can. It might even help promote her store. When Cosmos had everything she needed, she made her way to the Allard Hotel. She walked right up and was met with the doorman.
"Hello. I'm here to speak with the beautiful Princess Hisui." Cosmos said.
"She's not here yet. Are you an ambassador or someone important?" The doorman asked.
"No, but I would like to propose this project that I would like her to help me with." Cosmos said, but the doorman held up his hand to stop her from doing anything.
"If you're not a guest, not here to see a guest, or invited by Princess Hisui, I'm afraid you can't go in." The doorman said.
"But I just need a moment to talk to her about this plan I have. It can go forward without her help." Cosmos said.
"You mean her?" The doorman said. Cosmos turned around and saw the actual princess herself stepping out of a car with her bodyguard and assistant helping her out.
"Thank you, Arcadios." Hisui said. Cosmos saw this as her chance.
"Princess Hisui!" Cosmos said and tried to talk to her, but the doorman grabbed a hold of her and hoisted her over his shoulder with him carrying her away. "Hey! Put me down! Princess Hisui!" She called out to her and got her attention for a moment.
"Come along, Princess. We're on a tight schedule." Arcadios said as he had her move inside the hotel. As for Cosmos, she was dropped off on the other side of the street.
"The princess has no time for any foolishness of yours. Leave or I will call security." The doorman said. He gave her the warning and went back to his post. That was her one chance to reach her a big goal of hers, but she can't even get through. Without the princess, Cosmos' flowery plans can't move forward. All she could do was leave because she didn't really think there was much more she can do. There is one person that might be able to help her.
...
Black Wizard
"I can sense a beautiful flower beginning to wilt because her dreams are starting to be crushed." Black Wizard said. "My etherious can help her grow." He gave an etherious a dark power and released it. "Fly, my evil etherious. Let's help this flower grow again!"
...
Cosmos
Cosmos was upset that her little plan didn't work. She went down to a river and sat down on a bench. She took her little figurine and placed it on her lap. There didn't seem to be anything she could do, but that's what the etherious wanted as it entered the figurine and connected her to Black Wizard.
"Cosmo Flower, I'm Black Wizard. I'm giving you the power to spread your sweet scent and you shall become the princess to everyone. If you're the princess, all that you desire shall be yours."
"How lovely." Cosmos said as she was accepting the offer.
"And with your power, it will be easy for you to take the miraculous of Celestria and Salamondra." Black Wizard said. With Cosmos accepting the terms, her transformation began. A flower of evil has bloomed.
...
The School
Lucy managed to get through her classes. Once she was done, she figured she could get Stella to the healer.
"Hang in there, Stella." Lucy told her as she exited the school.
"Lucy, look over there." Erza said as she pointed at the road and saw Natsu just arriving as he talked to Gray. "Looks like Natsu missed out on some classes. He could use some notes." She was implying that this was a chance for Lucy to get closer to him.
"I can't now, Erza." Lucy said.
"Oh no. You're not getting out of this one." Erza said.
"I'm serious. I can't. I... I think I'm coming down with something." Lucy said as she tried to act sick.
"So don't breathe on him." Erza said as she was insistent that Lucy would do this. Lucy didn't see a way out of this, and it was a chance for her to get closer to Natsu. Lucy went on ahead with it as she walked down the steps.
"Lucy..." Stella moaned in her weak state.
"Just a little longer, Stella." Lucy said.
"Move it!" Taylor said as she pushed Lucy out of her way. It caused Lucy to trip over and Stella was sent flying out of her purse.
"Rude." Lucy commented. "I'm sorry, Stella." She said, but she looked in her purse and saw she was gone. "Stella! Stella!" She was beginning to panic as she looked around for Stella.
"Lucy..." Stella moaned, but she soon noticed there were too many people around. For the good of her safety, she put on a smile and acted like a regular toy.
"Hi, Natsu." Taylor said as she was acting all sweet to him. "Did you hear that Princess Hisui is staying at Daddy's hotel? Do you want to come meet her? I can make that happen."
"Sorry, Taylor. I can't. My brother wants me to come home." Natsu said as he took a copy of notes from Gray and got in his car with Jacob driving him away.
"Well, fine. I'll still be meeting the princess." Taylor said. She was about to leave until she looked down and spotted Stella. "What kind of toy is this?" She picked up Stella and wondered what it was. "Never seen this before." When she said that, it gave her an idea. "This might have the princess forget about her silly obligations and hang with me. I can just imagine all the shoes and clothes she has. I'm sure she won't mind skipping those children at the hospital." When Taylor's car pulled up, she stepped inside. When Lucy turned in her direction, she saw Taylor had Stella and was driving away.
"Taylor, wait!" Lucy called and got her attention as she tried to catch her. "That's mine!"
"Not anymore!" Taylor car as the car drove off with Stella going with Taylor. This could be a big problem.
...
The Allard Hotel
Taylor went back to her family hotel and was getting herself ready to meeting the princess. As for Lucy, no way she was going to let Taylor keep Stella. She had to get her back before it was too late. Lucy walked right up to the doorman in hopes that she can get in.
"Hi. I'm in Taylor's class. I'm here to see her." Lucy said.
"Are you a friend of Miss Allard?" The doorman asked.
"A friend?" Lucy said as she almost laughed, but stopped herself. "Yeah. We're great friends."
"Ha! Taylor doesn't have any friends. Goodbye." The doorman said. Lucy just turned away, but she wasn't going to give up that easily. She looked around for anything that she can use to help her get in. She soon spotted something that could help. Lucy put on a poncho, a helmet to cover her face, and grabbed an empty pizza box. She went back up to the doorman and tried acting a regular pizza delivery person.
"I got a large pizza here for a Mr. Smith." Lucy said with her disguising her voice. The doorman believed that and allowed her in. "There's always a Smith." Lucy went inside with no problems from there. However, not long after she went inside, Cosmo Flower showed up. Cosmos' new look was of her wearing green boots and ruffle skirt with her wearing a pink and white outfit and hat.
"I'm Cosmo Flower. I'm here to see Princess Hisui." Cosmo Flower said.
"What is with all these people?" The doorman said as he was getting annoyed. Cosmo Flower didn't allow him to just shoo her away. She took her figurine and was able to open it. When she blew in it, it unleashed a pink cloud that flew in the doorman's face. When he breathed in it, it put him in a hypnotic-state as he dropped down to his knee and bowed to her like royalty.
"There's a new princess in Paris now." Cosmo Flower said as she stepped inside.
...
Lucy
Lucy made her way up the hotel. She looked around for the room that might be Taylor's. As for Taylor herself, she finished getting herself ready to meet the princess. She walked over to an elevator and was ready. While she waited, she thought of what to say when she gave Stella to the princess.
"A gift for you, Princess Hisui. What do you say we hit the shopping malls?" Taylor said. Right when the elevator came, Lucy came around the corner and spotted her.
"Taylor!" Lucy called as she hurried to her. Taylor didn't recognized her, but did see the box.
"Pizza? Yuck. Keep that peasant food away." Taylor said as the elevator closed just before Lucy got to her.
"Spoiled brat." Lucy complained. She ditched the disguise and hurried as fast as she could to catch Taylor.
...
The Restaurant
Everyone was meeting with Princess Hisui at the restaurant in the hotel. Reporters and photographers were there to see her as she stood with Arcadios and the mayor.
"Princess Hisui, on behave of the people of Paris, we are glad that you are here." Aidan said. "I do hope that you enjoy your stay."
"Thank you. I would love to see all that Paris has to offer. It certainly is a beautiful city." Hisui said.
"No can do, Princess Hisui." Arcadios said. "We have a busy schedule. There's a lot going on today." Hisui was a little disappointed. She had hope she could have some fun while she was in Paris.
"Princess Hisui, I would at least like you to meet my daughter. This is Taylor." Aidan said as his daughter came down and met her.
"Princess Hisui, it's a pleasure to meet you. I would like to give you this donation for the children's hospital." Taylor said as she handed her Stella.
"That's very nice of you. I've never seen a toy like this before." Hisui said. "This is very kind."
"I know. How about you skip the hospital and we hit the shopping malls together." Taylor said.
"What?" Hisui said as she thought that was a strange thing for her to ask. There was no time to do anything about it. That was right when Cosmo Flower arrived as she jumped down on a counter and made her presence known.
"How nice to meet all of you. This is certainly a lovely dining hall. It's also nice that all of you are here." Cosmo Flower said. "Princess Hisui, I'm glad that you're here the most. I have need for you."
"Security!" Aidan called with a couple guards coming in. That was also when Lucy snuck her way in and saw what was going on. "Get this stranger out of here!" The guards went to get them, but she was ready. She took her flower and blew the same cloud at them. As soon as they breathed it in, they were both under her control as well.
"I'm giving the orders around here. Get me the princess!" Cosmo Flower said. The guards went at the crowd and tried reaching for the princess with all of them trying to stay out of the way. Seeing how bad this was, Lucy acted fast to think of something. She spotted a confetti launcher behind Cosmo Flower and knew that would work. She hurried back there and set it off. The confetti went off and knocked Cosmo Flower off the counter. It provided a good distraction for Hisui to escape with Arcadios, Aidan, and Taylor. "You can't escape from me!"
...
Natsu
Natsu was watching the news. He saw Cosmo Flower causing terror in the hotel and saw there was trouble.
"They say every rose has its thorns. This flower has plenty." Igneel said.
"Come on, Igneel. Time to do some weed whacking." Natsu said.
"I don't even like gardening." Igneel complained.
"Igneel, Fire Up!" Natsu had Igneel pulled into the ring and became Salamondra.
...
The Hotel
Taylor and her father were running as fast as they could with Princess Hisui and Arcadios. They made their way to one of the suites and shut the door to hide in it.
"This is bad. This messes up Princess Hisui's schedule." Arcadios said.
"Arcadios, I think we have bigger things to worry about than my schedule." Hisui said.
"No worries. I'm sure Celestria and Salamondra will be here soon to save us." Aidan said, but that's a problem since Hisui has Stella with her. They thought they were safe, but they heard knocking on the door.
"You can't hide form me." Cosmo Flower said as she knocked on it. She was going to get the princess to help her out one way or the other. She took her flower and tried getting that scent of hers to breach through the door and have all of them fall under her spell. Just as the scent was about to slip through the door, something was sucking it away. "What?!"
"That's one scent we all could do without." She looked behind her and saw Lucy using a vacuum cleaner to suck up all the scent. Even without her powers, Lucy is still doing what she can to save people
"Big mistake!" Cosmo Flower said as she tried attacking her. Lucy ran down the hall to keep out of her reach. Cosmo Flower tried unleashing her scent to get her, but this was a good opportunity. When Lucy dived inside the elevator for cover, Aidan took a look outside and saw she was distracted.
"Quickly! Now is our chance to escape!" Aidan said as the four of them tried running for it, but Cosmo Flower saw them trying to escape and she wasn't going to make it so easy for them. The four of them ran down the stairs and hoped they could escape from her. They hurried down the stairs, but Cosmo Flower jumped down and cut them off.
"The princess isn't allowed to leave!" Cosmo Flower said. She unleashed more of her scent and it hit the mayor.
"Daddy!" Taylor called.
"Oh no!" Hisui said.
"How may I serve you Cosmo Flower?" Aidan asked as he was under her spell. "Get me the princess!" Aidan turned around and tried to grab her, but Taylor acted quickly and pushed her father down the stairs with him landing on Cosmo Flower.
"That was your father." Arcadios said.
"Who cares? Let's get out of here." Taylor said as she just disregarded her father. The three of them ran full circle and found themselves back in the dining room.
"Now what do we do?" Hisui said.
"Have no fear, Salamondra is here." All of them looked to the window and saw Salamondra arrived just in time.
"Princess Hisui!" Cosmo Flower called as she hurried to the door. Salamondra stretched out his pole and knocked her back with it. He grabbed a chair and acted fast as he shut the door and tried blocking it.
"That's not going to hold her back for long." Salamondra said as he hurried to the window and extended his staff to the ground. "We need to go now."
"It's too dangerous for the princess." Arcadios said.
"You're right." Salamondra said. He grabbed a metal bowl and placed it on her head like a helmet. "Safety first." He had all three of them slide down the pole. Once all three of them made it down, Salamondra followed after them. Cosmo Flower was able to bust the door down and hurried after them. Lucy wasn't far behind either. Cosmo Flower looked out the window and saw the car they all got in as they tried to drive away.
"You won't escape from me!" Cosmo Flower called as she jumped out and chased after them. Lucy followed after to the window and was hoping Stella was safe.
...
The Car
"So much for the hospital. I'm sorry Princess Hisui, but we won't be able to make it." Arcadios said.
"That's a good thing with a villain after us." Salamondra said.
"This is all truly awful." Hisui said as she can only imagine all the people that are suffering from the villain.
"I know. That ridiculous scent of that crazy girl could ruin my outfit." Taylor said as she was more concerned about herself. That was when they heard something land down on the car.
"Are you talking about me?" Cosmo Flower questioned as she was standing over and open skylight.
"Close the window!" Salamondra said. Arcadios tried to close it, but Cosmo Flower placed her hand against it and kept it open. She blew the scent in the car. All of them began to panic and it allowed Stella to fall from Hisui and avoided the scent, but the rest of them weren't so lucky.
"Excellent, Cosmo Flower. Now that you have Salamondra, it's only a matter of time until Celestria shows up and meets the same fate." Black Wizard said as he can see victory is near.
"She will soon enough. Now that I have the princess, I'll place everyone under my spell. Releasing my lovely scent at the beautiful Eiffel Tower should do it." Cosmo Flower said. If Lucy can't get Stella back, there won't be anything she can do to stop her.
...
Lucy
Lucy hurried after the car as best as she could. She could only hope that Stella was still safe. When she finally found the car, she could see that she was too late.
"Oh no." Lucy feared as she hurried. She searched around the car. "Stella, where are you?"
"Here, Lucy." Stella moaned. Lucy looked down and spotted Stella, but she looked worse than she did before.
"Oh no. Stella, you look awful." Lucy said as she scooped her up.
"You need to transform." Stella said.
"No, Stella. You've waited long enough. You need that healer first." Lucy said. "I just hope we're not too late."
...
The Healer
The healer that Stella was talking about was actually Mavis herself. Stella said nothing about who Mavis really was, but Mavis got to work on trying to make her feel better. She was ringing a gong with Lucy hoping this was working.
"Is she okay?" Lucy asked.
"She will be in another minute." Mavis said as she continued to help Stella. She held out her hands with Lucy not sure what she was doing. "What animal did you say this was?"
"It's a... A rare chipmunk." Lucy said as she was hoping that would work. Mavis asked no other questions. She continued helping Stella and gave the gong one more ring.
"That should do it." Mavis said. Stella opened her eyes and was feeling a lot better. Lucy was so happy to see her well again as she grabbed a hold of Stella and carried her.
"Thank you." Lucy said. She was on her way out, but stopped for a moment. "How did you do that?"
"Ancient secret." Mavis said. Lucy asked no other questions and left the place. "Just like yours."
"I'm so glad you're feeling better, Stella. I should have brought you here from the start." Lucy said as she stepped outside.
"It's okay, Lucy. I'm just glad to see you did okay without me. Without me, you wouldn't be Celestria." Stella said.
"Yeah, but you're more than that to me." Lucy said.
"It's okay." Stella said as she hugged Lucy's face. "We better get moving. Cosmo Flower is heading for the Eiffel Tower to spread her scent over the whole city."
"Not if we have anything to say about it. Stella, Twinkle!" Lucy had Stella pulled into her earrings and she was finally able to become Celestria.
...
The Eiffel Tower
With her four new servants under her control, Cosmo Flower was able to make to the Eiffel Tower. She'll soon have the whole city under her control.
"With your help, Princess Hisui, I can do so much. Of course, I'll be the real princess around here." Cosmo Flower said. "Soon, the whole city will be my kingdom!"
"Not so fast, royal pain in the neck!" Celestria called as she swung in and landed on one of the beams of the tower.
"Celestria? I'm afraid you're too late!" Cosmo Flower said. She blew her scent at Celestria and it surrounded her, but Celestria jumped through and showed she was unaffected by it. The reason is because she had a clothes pin over her nose. Cosmo Flower was getting irritated now. "Get her!" Three of her servants went on the attack as Cosmo Flower took Hisui with her up the tower. Taylor charged right at her, but Celestria stepped to the side and caused her to smash against a beam. Arcadios tried attacking her, but she jumped right over him and kicked him back. Salamondra tried attacking as he swung his staff at her.
"Stop it, Salamondra! It's me!" Celestria said, but he kept attacking her.
"Dragon Fire!" Salamondra tried using his power against her. He stretched out his arm at her, but she moved out of the way. She grabbed him by the tail and spun around as fast as she could to give him a good toss away from the place. With them out of the way, she went up the tower and after Cosmo Flower. Cosmo Flower placed Hisui down on the balcony while she jumped all the way to the top.
"This lovely city is now mine!" Cosmo Flower said as she held out her flower and her scent was starting to spread all over the place. Celestria had to do something fast for there was only one option left.
"Open the Celestial Gate!" Celestria used her powers and a firework with matches appeared to her. "A Sagittarius firework with matches?" She tried to figure it out until it soon came to her. "That's it! I'm guessing that's flammable. Kids, don't try this at home." She took a match and lit it. She was able to launch the firework into the sky. When it went off, the whole scent caught on fire and burned up. The flames reached near Cosmo Flower and knocked her off to the balcony with her dropping the flower. Celestria came down on it and stomped on the flower with it breaking and the etherious flew out.
"No! I'm wilting!" Cosmo Flower shouted.
"No more evildoing for you, little etherious." Celestria activated her whip and gave it a good twirl. "Time to de-evillize!" She tossed the etherious and was able to catch it. "Gotcha! Bye-Bye, little guy." She said when she released it after purifying it. "Miraculous Starlight!" She tossed the matches in the air and unleashed streams of stars that fixed everything and freed people that were under Cosmo Flower's control. Cosmo Flower herself also turned back into Cosmos.
...
Black Wizard
"Arrgh!" Black Wizard shouted in frustration. "You might have escaped this time, Celestria, but I know that the winds will change and that I will be the winner!"
...
The Eiffel Tower
"Where am I?" Hisui said as she had no idea what happened to him.
"Princess Hisui!" Cosmos said as she was excited to meet her. "I'm so glad I finally get to meet you. I have a project that I wanted to run by you. One that will preserve many flowers and help the environment." She was taking the chance to talk to her. Her statement did seem to get Hisui interested.
"I think I'll leave the two of you to talk." Celestria said as she jumped off the tower and left the two of them there. While they were talking, Taylor made her way up to the tower.
"There you are, Princess Hisui!" Taylor said as she pushed Cosmos out of the way. "What a day. How about we do some shopping and grab something to eat at the finest restaurant."
"I'm sorry, but I don't have the time." Hisui said. "I still have to appear at the children's hospital, and I do want to hear more about this idea." Hisui left with Cosmos to talk about the idea she was trying to have.
"What about me?!" Taylor complained. In the end, Stella's feeling better, Cosmos got to meet with the princess, and it's been an adventure the princess won't forget. The day has been a real miraculous.
