~Chapter 10~
~Lucy's Pov Still~
Once off the train I was looking around smiling looking toward a field of flowers. I saw in the corner of my eyes Natsu smiling toward me as Wendy came over smiling. "You never seen a flower field before?" Wendy asked as I shook my head. "I rarely was allowed out" I explained as Erza came over grabbing my hand as Wendy smirked grabbing my other the two dragging me off the train station to the boarder line into the field. Us all laughing. "Don't we have a mission to get to?" we heard Gray nearly shout.
Him and Natsu were following slowly. "Want to say that again?" Erza asked a glare in her eyes as both Natsu and Gray went pale shaking their heads no. I was in shock as Erza then looked at me smiling the glare vanishing. "Pick one" she spoke as I was confused as she looked toward the flowers. "Why?" I asked confused as Wendy giggled picking a purple flower as Carla flew over taking the flower putting it in Wendy's hair. "Wendy collects flowers we all like and puts them in a book, as you just join the team you have to pick she has one for Natsu already" Erza soon explained.
I nodded as I saw some golden roses as I closed my eyes holding my head as images of a garden was in my head. "Lucy?" Natsu asked worried as I opened my eyes to see him in front of me looking toward me with pure worry. "I'm fine just a little tired" I lied smiling as he saw through it. He knew it must of been apart of my Angel side for me to lie to him. I took the rose careful not to get picked by a thorn as Erza walked over taking it and passing it to Wendy. "Natsu picked a red rose, you two are having pages next to each other" Wendy spoke smiling brightly.
Natsu sighed as I laughed a little. "My taste in flowers rubbed off on you then" I turned my head to Natsu who chuckled nodding as we all started to follow Erza who had a map of the area. I was looking around smiling as it was still so different and weird being away from the castle. Everything was new to me basically. We was going through some woods as Natsu and Wendy told us to stop. We listened as Natsu pulled me close to him him growling slightly. "There are people all around us" Wendy spoke in fear.
Gray had a white mist coming off his body. "Come out cowards" Erza spoke harshly putting the map away as Natsu picked me up in a bridal hold fast jumping out the way as where was standing exploded. "Natsu! Lushie!" Happy flew over to us as Natsu was asking if I was alright at I nodded. Gray lifted his foot off the ground slamming it down turning the whole ground into ice, the air starting to get cold as it was soon snowing. "Got at lest half of them" Gray spoke as I was in shock at his magical level.
"Natsu get Wendy, Happy, Carla and Lucy to the temple it is straight forward from here" Erza ordered as Natsu nodded still holding me as Wendy ran ahead Carla flying close to her as Natsu followed, Happy flying next to us. "Will they be alright alone?" I asked as Natsu nodded. "They can handle it" he replied as I was worried slightly as after a small run we was outside the temple. Natsu let me onto my feet as I walked over to it looking at the wall. "Lucy you can read this right?" Wendy asked sounding excited.
She was much less shy than before. "Hai" I answered as I turned around fast a shield showing up around us all and the temple as a powerful blast hit the shield making me struggle to hold it up. "What now?" Wendy asked as the shield went down as I fell onto my knees slightly out of breath as Natsu's fist burst into flames. A group wearing what look like a cult set up showed up looking toward us. "Get the child" one spoke the men rushing in as Wendy's eyes widen. "You two in the temple NOW" Natsu ordered sending powerful wave of flames toward them.
Wendy grabbed my hand rushing to the entrance as I soon pulled Wendy back fast moving her as the ground exploded. "LUCY!" I heard the others shout but I was fine. I was being held high in the air the person landing as I looked up to see Loke. "Always got your back beautiful" Loke spoke smiling as I smiled slightly. "LOKE!" Wendy shouted in excitement as Loke let me on my feet. "Which one of you bastards threaten MY Lucy?" Loke soon asked harshly getting a glare from Natsu who was keeping most of them busy as Wendy rushed over asking if I needed healing.
I shook my head as I heard a mad man's laugh. Mine, Natsu's and Loke's eyes widen. Confusing the two exceeds and young dragon slayer. "Jackal" Natsu nearly shouted as Jackal showed up from the shadows smirking his eyes on me. "I missed twice, I'm trying my hardest to hit you with a weak blast, Heartfilla" Jackal spoke as Natsu's and Loke's aura went dark both in raged. "Get inside and finish the mission" Loke spoke as grabbed Wendy taking her inside the exceeds following us both.
"Jackal is here that means Mard Geer won't be far behind" I spoke worried as Wendy's face went slightly pale. "T-the Underworld King?" Wendy asked in pure fear as I nodded. That was how most people knew him. Mard Geer The Underworld King, Leader of The Tartaros Guild. He was the demon in charged of getting information on guilds in Fiore. I was always able to hear some gossip about Fiore and Mard Geer. I had even met him before. Wendy and I stopped running both of us out of breath in a giant room.
That was one long corridor. "What now? The others might need help" Wendy asked as I smirked winking toward her. "I find the magic tablet in this temple and use it to make a shield just like I did with Magnolia" I answered as the others looked toward me in some shock. "It was easy to pick up what was outside this place is a shield station for an old town made for Angels and Humans to live together" I answered looking around walking toward a statue. Normally the tablet was around the main statue.
I just had to figure out what one it was. "What are we exactly looking for?" Carla asked in a sassy tone getting Wendy to snap at her to be nice. "What statue has a hidden gem stone" I answered looking around the statue as Happy flew over helping me.
