Chapter 61: Setting up a Party!
Time skip to March 15th
"Where are the other keys!?" I asked Leviathan. We were in his study. His fireplace was lit, Leviathan wore his red and black suit, and I wore a nice black suit. Leviathan was flipping through his notes. "A goddess had them, but now her and the keys are missing! I have no knowledge where the keys are!" Leviathan explained. "Shit..." I muttered under my breathe. "I agree." Leviathan said. "I just hope they haven't fallen into Zeref's hands..." I said. "Agreed." Leviathan replied. All of a sudden the room began to shake. "What the fuck!?" I exclaimed. "They found one of the keys!" Leviathan said, getting up and walking to the only wimdow in the room.
I got up and followed him. We looked out the window and saw a white horse with wings and a girl whose face was covered in a hood. "How are we seeing this?" I asked. "We are looking through the eyes of one of my demons." Leviathan said. The girl looked in our direction. She pointed at us and the white horse flew at the demon. Then the screen went dark. "That was Pegasus. It must have been a white key." I said. Leviathan nodded. "This girl must be rogue, she's not on a side." Leviathan said. That girl... she's so familiar... "Wake me up. I'm warning the others." I said.
Leviathan looked at me and grinned. "You got it." he said. The room fell into darkness.

I opened my eyes and sat up. I found myself alone in my room. I got out of bed, grabbed some clothes, went into the washroom, took a shower, and brushed my teeth. When I got out of the washroom, it was unnaturally quiet. I went downstairs and found the house empty. I looked at the time and found it was noon. There was a note on the counter. I grabbed it and read it.
Hey Robert!
The mall got fixed so we all went shopping with your cousin. The only one who didn't come was Elizabeth, Venus' daughter. Be careful. When I get back, I'll have something for you. You better start setting up for the party in two days. Love you!
Abigail ❤
I smiled. "Hello?" a girl's voice said. I turned and saw the girl Alex was in love with. She has pink hair, but she added blonde highlights and her eyes were green now. "What's with the eyes. They were yellow before. Elizabeth, right?" I said. Elizabeth smiled and nodded. "And my eyes changed color because that is one of the abilities Venus passes down to her children. Nice to meet you." Elizabeth said. "My name's Robert." I said extending my right hand. She gripped it and we shook. We sat down on my chouch and started to talk. After 5 minutes, I asked "Wanna help set up for a party we're throwing?" She grinned and nodded.
I went downstairs and looked through boxes, hoping to find some sort of decoration for St. Patrick's Day. I sighed in defeat when I found nothing. I went back upstairs. When I got up there though, green streamers were attached to the ceiling, a leprechaun mask was on one of the walls, and Elizabeth was adding green food coloring to a bubble machine. Wait, where did she get the bubble machine!? "What the fuck!?" I exclaimed. She saw me and smiled. She stopped adding the food coloring and spread her arms out. "What do you think?" she asked. "Where did you find this stuff!?" I asked.
Before she even answered, I said "Scratch that! Where did you get the bubble machine!?" Elizabeth shyly smiled and said "Being the child of Venus, I know what is exactly needed to decorate a house. And what's a better way to celebrate a holiday then not to have a bubble machine." I was astounded. "You don't like it?" she asked. I shook my head no and she started jumping up and down and clapping her hands. Then the front door opened and a familiar voice said "What the hell!?" I looked and saw Nicole. "How did you get in? The door was locked." I said.
Nicole looked at me and said "I have my ways." I sighed and pinched the bridge of my nose. "Can you close and lock the door?" I asked. Nicole nodded. She did what I asked and she asked "What's going on?" I explained everything to her. "I'll help!" Nicole said. I smiled. All three of us got to work.

2 hours later
The door opened and everyone who went out came home. They all stopped dead in their tracks. "Surprise!" Nicole, Elizabeth, and I shouted. The light bulbs were changed to ones that light up the area green, green streamers were all through the house, leprechaun masks were hanging on the walls, the bubble machine was blowing green bubbles, and we had green face paint out on the table. "Woah...." Abigail said. Everyone went in and started looking around. "And everything was enchanted with fire resistance and has is unbreakable." I said.
"This is amazing!" Alex exclaimed. Natsu had his hand on fire and he was holding one of the streamers. It didn't light up in flames. "He's right! It didn't catch on fire!" Natsu said with a smile. "Where did you get the bubble machine?" Wendy asked, examining said machine. "I asked Dionysus what was good for a party and he said a bubble machine. So here it is." Elizabeth said. Abigail pouted. "I was going to help..." she said with a pout face. I hugged her and said "Next party." She smiled and nodded. Then someone knocked on the door.
I looked at Natsu and he stopped using his magic. I opened the door and saw.... EMA AND PHIL!? "Ema!? Phil!?" I said. Ema had her dirty blonde hair in a ponytail, was wearing jean shorts, and a purple baggy shirt. Her hazel eyes had a mischievous sparkle to them. Phil had no style for his dirty blonde, wore his usual beige pants, and a blue t-shirt. His sky blue eyes had the same sparkle in them. "Hey." Phil said wirh a smile. I smiled back. I looked in and said "Hey Abbey! I want you to meet someone!" Abigail nodded and walked out the door with me right behind her. I closed the door behind me.
"Guys! This Abigail!" I said, motioning to my beautiful fiancé. "Hi! My name's Ema and this guy is Phil!" Ema said, motioning to herself and Phil. "How are you?" Phil said. "Hi. I'm good thanks for asking." Abigail said shyly. She quickly hid behind me. "Why are you so shy?" I asked. "You know I'm not good with people..." she said. I looked at Phil and Ema and gave them an apologetic look. "She's shy. Sorry." I said. They nodded and Ema said "It's okay." "So how did you two meet?" Phil asked. "Second year of high school. We became best friends after that!" I said. "Are you sure you're just friends?" Ema said in a mischievous voice.
Phil laughed. "Ya! Do you like her like the time we thought you liked Sharon?" he asked. I brought my hand around to my back and gripped Abigail's hand. "Actually..." I said, turning away and scratching my blushing cheek. It took like five seconds for them to process what's happening. "You do like her!" Phil exclaimed. Ema then walked over and whispered in my ear "Hopefully it works out." Abigail then walked from behind my back with my hand still in hers. "We have been dating for a while." Abigail said, slipping her hand from my grip and looping her arm with mine.
Both mouths dropped to the floor. "Seems like we aren't the only one with surprises!" I heard Ema whisper to Phil. Thank you super hearing! "What are you two whispering about?" Abigail asked. "You want to know their secrets too right?" Abigail asked. "Yup." I replied. "Oh, nothing! Right Phil?" Ema asked in a nervous voice. "Right!" Phil said in the same tone. Then they made eye contact and just stared into space. They did this for a whole minute. AWKWARD! "Umm... guys?" Abigail said, trying to gain their attention. They shook their heads for a minute and looked back at us with a blush.
"Sorry!" Phil said. "It's okay. So why are you guys here?" I asked. "Well... we haven't seen you in so long and we just wanted to say we are so excited for your party!" Ema said. "Oh right! My brother invited you!" I said. They both nodded. That's when I noticed Ema had a purse. I saw a silver object in her bag. "What's that in your bag?" I asked. Ema quickly zipped up her bag and said "It's nothing!" Though a bead of sweat rolled down her forehead. "Well we got to go!" Phil said suddenly. "Okay, well, it was great seeing you!" I said. "It was a pleasure to meet you Abigail!" Ema said.
"You too!" Abbey said with a smile. They walked off and we went into my house. "Did you see that silver object in her purse?" I asked her, completely forgetting that other people were in the room. She nodded and we both sat down on the couch and began talking. We had completely forgot the rest of our friends who were trying to get our attention.
