Hey y'all! I thought I would have more time during break but it turned out I had less... A lot less... But here is The next chapter. So I have realized you guys don't talk... Like at all based on the number of comments but if you could vote that would be great too! I am not going to be one of those people who says that I won't update it until I get so many votes or followers but they would be greatly appreciated. Enjoy!

Lucy walked through the woods silently. It was peacful, calm, and above all weird. As much as she hated to admit it she missed Natsu and Happy.

Suddenly she heard something rustle behind her. She quickly pulled out Loke's key. She waited on standby as she intently watched the woods. A little white creature jumped out of the bushes.

"A bunny" she sighed "just a bunny".

"Don't be so sure" a voice whispered beside her. She jumped and dropped Loke's key. She turned to find a figure wearing everyday clothes.

"W-who are you?" Lucy asked searching for where she dropped Loke's key. She spotted a glimpse of hold in the grass a couple feet away.

"Who I am doesn't matter, who you are however... That is another story." he lunged at her but she quickly dodged. She dove out of the way grabbing Loke's key.

"Open! Gate of the lion, Leo!" she shouted as he appeared. He was rubbing the back of his neck.

"Did you drop me or something?" he asked oblivious to their situation. She rolled her eyes returning her focus to the for that stood in front of her.

"I don't know who he is but I can tell he doesn't use magic" she whispered to Loke.

"You disgust me!" the man spat at her "trapping those poor spirits than making them fight for you. Keeping them like pets and treating them like prisoners!"

"You have no idea what you're talking about! I love my spirits and treat them like my friends and family!"

"Whatever" he snickered lunging for her again. Lucy noticed something silver sparkle out of the corner of her eye. A knife? She thought dodging his attack.

"Regulus Impact" Loke attacked. His attack hit the man a couple feet away knocking him out cold.

"Well that was-" Loke dropped as several men like the one they just defeated stepped out.

"How many do you think there are?" Lucy asked.

"At least a hundred" Loke answered standing back to back with Lucy.

There's too many. She thought to herself. A cry came out from behind her. She quickly turned to see Loke crouched down.

"Loke!?" she asked kneeling next to him.

"They... Shocked me... With a special... Weapon... Designed to... Drain... Magic" he said as he struggled to stand. Lucy could see his pain. If I summon another spirit the same could happen to them. And if they run out of magic...

"I surrender" she declared thinking of her spirits.

"No! Lu-" Loke tried to say but was cut off.

"I won't risk you guys. If their weapons can drain your magic and you run out you guys..." she trailed off.

"No!" Loke shouted again readying himself to fight. "If I go down it will be fighting". His face showed obvious signs of pain.

"Force Gate Closure!" Lucy yelled.

"Lucy!? What are you doing!?" he cried as she simply nodded with a reassuring smile. The law he dad of her was her being tazed and falling to the ground.
