Coming Home
"Wendy-chan?"I whispered into her ear softly. The blue haired girl stirred before rubbing her eyes and sitting up.
"Lucy-san?"Wendy asked sleepily. She yawned cutely and set her eyes on me.
I crossed my arms with a pout. "What did I tell you to call me,Imouto-chan?"
"I'm sorry. I forgot. Lucy-nee,"Wendy squeaked and apologized a few times more.
"It's fine, really, don't cry,"I sighed and hugged the blue haired girl. Wendy was such a sensitive girl that it worried me sometimes. "Remember, today is a special day, Imouto-chan."
A smile spread on her small face. "Its today!"She squealed. "We get to help other guilds."
"That's right,"I grinned and pat her head. "Get ready, we'll be on our way in five, if not we'll be late."
"Hai!"Wendy said enthusiastically.
I smiled at the fact that she was happy and was no longer sulking. I walked out of our small room that was inside out guild. Our master sat on his chair at the very back of the guild with a keg in hand.
"Master Roubal, you shouldn't be drinking much,"I said warningly.
He laughed. "Lucy-chan, I'm afraid I'll miss you guys while you're gone on your mission."
I sat on a small table. "We'll miss you too, but we'll be back. I promise."
"I know you will, after all I'm sending my strongest mage, I'm sure you'll take good care of Wendy,"He smiled.
"I'm ready, Lucy-nee!"Wendy walked out. A white exceed exited along with Wendy out of the small room we considered our room.
"Carla? You're going too?"I cocked my head to the side.
Carla crossed her arms. "Why wouldn't I?"
I shrugged. "You say youre a cat with manners and would never get yourself dirty over a stupid mission."
Carla flushed red before huffing. "That is no longer the case!"
Wendy walked towards Master and hugged him. "We'll be back soon!"She said.
She ran and grasped my hand. "Let's go,Lucy-nee!"
"Let's,"I grinned and waved at Master. Carla jumped on Wendy's arms. "See you soon,Master!"
"Take care!"He shouted back.
"We will!"
.....
We talked and laughed along the way. Wendy's eyes widened as the Blue Pegasus headquarters came into view. It was pretty big, bigger than home, Cait Shelter.
"I wonder what kind of mages there are!"Wendy said excited. She grasped her head. "What if they don't like us!?"
"We shouldn't care,"I said simply. "We came here for a mission, Wendy."
"I'm sorry!"She squeaked out.
"You shouldn't scare her,"Carla said sternly.
"You shouldn't either,"I crossed my eyes and stuck my tongue out playfully. Once we were close enough, I stopped walking.
"Lucy-san?"Wendy asked worriedly.
"Lucy-nee,"I whined. "It's Lucy-nee, Imouto-chan!"
"I'm sorry!"She apologized genuinely. "Where are you going,Lucy-nee?"
"To check the perimeter, from what I know, we'll be going against a strong dark guild from the balam alliance, its not safe knowing an enemy could attack at any given moment,"I said.
"Wow! You really are smart,Lucy-nee,"Wendy breathed out.
"I know,"I said cockily feeling proud. "Go inside with Carla, I'll be there in a few."
"Hai!"Wendy smiled and walked towards the door. "Be careful."
I nodded and began searching through the perimeter of the guild. The moment Blue Pegasus came into view, I knew something was off. I hurried knowing Wendy could be in trouble. I spotted two flying creatures lurking through the back of the guild.
"Gemini?"I mused. Their owner should be someone close.
"Piri~"Both giggled out. They turned. "Uh-oh, Angel-sama won't like that we were spotted."
They saw me, I grasped a key in my belt. "Taurus! Take care of these spirits!"
I ran towards the front of the guild. Carla was still standing on the doorway. "Carla? Where's Wendy?"
"She's inside,"She answered simply.
"Why are you out here then?"I asked.
"I was just checking out the beautiful weather,"She said, a blush tainted her white fluffy cheeks.
"You were worried about me,"I said softly. The white stern cat might not show it, but she was caring.
"I wasn't."
"Such a lie,"I smirked and walked inside.
"What was Cait Shelter thinking? Sending a girl all on her own."
I growled. These people better not be treating Wendy as a weakling, because sure as hell, Wendy could beat them all up, if she wanted.
"She's not alone,"Surprisingly Carla spoke with me at the same time.
"Who are you?"A bald man asked. I knew him, he was a wizard saint.
"Lucy Heartfilia, from Cait Shelter,"I said and pointed at Carla. "And this is Carla."
Carla stepped out from the shadows with an angry look. "Don't look down on Wendy, you hear Wear-Too-Much-Makeup woman?"
The pink haired woman blushed momentarily, "Tch."
"Are you alright?"I asked and squatted next to Wendy, I noticed the scratches on her knee and elbow. "You fell?"I said softly. I took out a second golden key.
"Virgo!"I called out. The pink haired maid appeared with an Aid Kit in her hands.
I grabbed a cotton and alcohol and rubbed it on Wendy's knees and elbow. Virgo placed a bandage on her knees and elbow. "That should do it,"I pat Wendy's head. I turned to Virgo. "Thank you for your help."
"Its an honor to help our Princess,"Virgo bowed and disappeared.
"You're a stellar mage?"A white haired man asked.
"It would seem so,"I said and turned away from him. "When I got here, there was a Celestial being just outside of the guild. I'm assuming its from one of Oracion Seis members. I'm surprised not even a wizard saint could detect it. My stellar spirit should be back any moment now."
Jura's eyes widened. "We could have been ambushed."
"That must have been the spirit of Angel, a celestial mage,"A man with orange hair spoke. An image materialized in front of everyone showing a white haired woman.
Taurus walked into the guild. "They have excaped,Lucy-sama. I apologize for not being able to protect you amazing body."
"Its fine, you may go now."
"Lucy-sama, you body is so-"
"Force closure!"I sighed and pinched the bridge of my nose.
I turned towards the group of mages. "Im Afraid none of you have introduced yourselves."
"Ah,yes,"A red haired woman stepped forward. "I'm Erza Scarlet, from Fairy Tail."
A raven haired man nodded. "Gray Fullbuster,Fairy Tail."
Before the pink haired guy spoke, I interrupted him. "Natsu Dragneel, if I'm correct. I know you three, you're Fairy Tail's most destructive members."
"Eto,"Erza blushed.
"Hey!"Natsu said completely offended. "We're the strongest team ever!"
"Lyon Vastia, from Lamia Scale,"The white haired man from earlier spoke. A pink color dusted his cheeks. "Call me Lyon, if you'd like."
"That's what I was planning on,"I deadpanned. What was I supposed to call him? Vastia-san? Hell no.
"Sherry Blendy, from im-going-to-kill-you-for-speaking-to-my-guy!"The pink haired woman said.
"That's a pretty interesting guild,"I said monotonously. "You're Jura Neekis,"I looked at the bald man.
"Hibiki Lates, are you free tonight?"The orange haired man asked flirtatiously.
"No."
"Ren, just Ren for you. Don't think you're special or anything,"The dark brown haired man said with a blush.
"Eve Tearm,"A boy from Wendy's age said. "Can I be your little brother?"He asked me.
"Sure,"I patted his head. I had a soft spot for little kids, they were just so adorable.
"Ichiya Kotobuki,"A short man, bowed and kissed the back of my hand. "My lady."
"Happy,"A blue haired neko stepped forward. His face was redder than a tomato as he stared at Carla.
"Someone's head over heels for you,"I teased.
"Now that were all here, I would like to discuss the plan, but first, I shall use the bathroom!"Ichiya exclaimed and posed.
When Ichiya arrived, I narrowed my eyes. I grasped a key in my hand.
"Loke! Attack Ichiya!"
