I woke up to see we was still in the temple as I saw we was now in a hallway. "This place is a maze and Icer won't help" Gray spoke annoyed as I was on the ground leaning on the wall. I put my hand on my head as Zodiacs keys clashed together once more getting the three people turn their heads and look toward me. They was looking for an exit. "I know the way" I spoke weakly as Gray came over looking toward me. "I might sound rude but can we trust you? Even you admitted there were dark Fairies" Gray spoke looking right into my eyes.

I looked into his. I saw he wanted to keep the people he cared for safe. I saw a painful past. I saw sadness, bloodlust and hate also but other than that I was able to see that he was caring person who could smile, joke around and be kind. "Zodiacs would never pick a dark Fairy ever. I made sure they wouldn't when I made them. I would rather die than let the Dark Curse fully take me and I would end my own life before I hurt others" I then replied with honest truth as he was shocked at my words.

He soon smiled toward me and offered his hand. "I am Gray Fullbuster" he spoke as I smiled taking his hand as we ended up in a hand shake. "The pink idiot is Natsu Dragneel" Gray informed me as I was in shock at the last name. "It's not pink!" Natsu nearly shouted. "You count your hair as the shade don't you? Then you call it salmon" I then asked as he looked toward m in shock but had a toothy grin reminding me of Igneel Dragneel the maker of Flames. "Yep" he answered as Erza laughed slightly.

"The scary lady is Erza Scarlet" Gray then informed me as we let go of each others hands as I looked toward him confused at the way he spoke about Erza. "You will see her scary side soon trust me" Gray then spoke looking pale as he then got up and picked me up in a bridal style as one of my arms went on around the back of his neck. I was shocked at first. "Lead the way, you need to rest too plus you ain't heavy" Gray spoke smiling with his eyes closed as I was blushing ever so slightly. 

"Behind Erza there is a symbol for wings. Press it" I then informed them as Erza turned around to face a wall filled with symbols as she was looking through and took some minuets before she found the right one. She pressed it opening that part of the wall to show a passage. "We will need some light, it is normally very dark" I then spoke as Natsu went ahead turning his fist into pure flames. He was much like Igneel Dragneel the man who was like a father to me once. Gray walked after Natsu and Erza behind.

I noticed Erza on guard looking around as Natsu was in front. I told them the way as it was a six minuet walk until we reach outside to see fresh air as the wing was blowing on my face. I was smiling brightly missing the feeling of the wind on my face. Gray placed me onto my feet as I walked a little forward closing my eyes letting my wings grow. I felt the wind touch them once more as the feeling was amazing. It felt as if I was reborn in a way. When my eyes opened Gray, Erza and Natsu were all looking toward me in shock.

"The breeze is amazing here" I laughed turning my head to see my fire themed wings. (In Media). I jumped into the air getting my wings to start flapping as I was flying into the air spinning around as I got higher and higher into the air. "Amazing" I heard Gray speak well I was just able to hear him. "More like beautiful" I then heard Erza as I flew around for a second before landing back down onto the ground next to the others. "Sorry. I haven't flew in so long" I spoke as my wings gave off some golden dust.

"It is fine, we are amazed by the wings" Erza spoke walking over as I laughed slightly. "To me they are very normal, want to touch them?" I asked as Erza was staring at them in awe as when I offered her eyes lit up as if she was a child as she nodded making her armor gloves vanish, using Twin Bloods power as she placed her hand on my wing. She was in shock as I smiled toward her. "They are fluffy" she laughed slightly as the boys were in shock. "I have sky wings, sometimes on a fully moon they turn into a nightshade theme" I informed her.

"There are different type wings?" Gray asked as I nodded with a 'yep' with it. "My family were known for sky wings they was rare as it meant we can fly higher than planes and normal Fairies" I informed them as Erza was using both hands to touch my wings. "That's pretty cool" Natsu spoke as I nodded. "Eclair had better wings, she had wings of a phoenix "I spoke as Natsu was more interested in her wings mostly because of Flames power. "As you know about the weapons you could train us couldn't you?" Gray soon asked as Erza was trying to stop herself from touching my wings.

I saw she she was enjoying it like a child. I was used to human children playing and dressing up my wings so to me it was fine. "I could yes. Each weapon is different but when training together they can unlock power" I then answered as Erza finally stopped and stepping back trying not to touch them anymore. "You can touch them anytime you would like Erza" I then spoke as she grabbed my hands in a second holding them up slightly so they was under her faces. "I CAN?" she asked loudly and excited.

"Yes you can" I laughed slightly as she was thanking me and calming that I was now her younger sister and under her protection as she reminded me of Irene slightly. "You can make them show and vanish?" Natsu then asked as I nodded. "Before the water with darkness there was wars between races to where my family finally made peace between all but we had to hide with humans a lot from Trolls and Elf's so we learnt to hide wings in case of need to hide within humans and plus makes easier to hide normally as they glow a lot" I answered/explained.

Natsu nodded with a 'o' shaped mouth as I made my wings vanish as it did sting slightly making them grow and go back inside of me but it was easy to play off. "You have such beautiful wings Lucy" Erza spoke as I smiled even more. "Thank you" I replied as we walked off as Erza was making us go to a meet point where they was to meet the others when they finished dealing with crawlers. It seemed my Scorpio Cannon got them suck in that temple. I had ran ahead once and awhile enjoying being outside as I was smiling brightly.

I was looking around in pure joy but as we passed a destroyed old village I noticed a symbol of 'Fairy Protection' on the wall of it. I ended up rushing to it getting the other confused as my eyes watered seeing it. In the way Fairies had the most power and people to fight. My hand was touching the symbol. "Lucy this area has monsters we can't stay for long" Erza spoke as my hand was stroking the symbol in a way. "Lucy?" Gray asked worried as I felt a warm hand on my shoulder. I turned my head seeing Natsu.

"I-I just hope they didn't have painful deaths" I spoke my voice cracking as tears started to build up. "I want them to know I am sorry for failing them" I then spoke crying my hand still on the symbol as Natsu had pulled me away from it into a hug. It was warm and protective as I hugged back crying my hands and head in Natsu's chest. "You didn't fail Lucy. You are still alive to fight today right?" Natsu then asked as one of his hands were on the back of my hand while the other was rubbing my back.

"I did fail" I spoke loudly while crying still. "They died. They all died because of me. I walked into the crystal trap. I set off the trap getting us attacked and killed" I then spoke crying as Natsu was quiet unable to reply as Erza and Gray came over. "I am sure they are watching over you right now Lucy. I am sure they want you to be strong and fight back along with living" Erza then spoke as I was starting to calm down. Natsu moved his arms back a bit letting me have some breathing room as Gray was in front of me.

"When you lose someone close to you, that smile will fade, tears will fall until there's none left, but you must move on, I know it's hard but you have to try" Gray spoke as I saw he knew the pain of losing someone. I saw Erza and Natsu were the same hearing Gray's voice as I wiped away my tears. "Thank you" I spoke smiling slightly. "You all are slightly scared I am evil but still are so kind toward me" I then spoke shocking them all as I smiled even more toward them some tears building but still.

"I don't deserve this kindness" I then spoke as they were in shock as the weapons were glowing shouting about how I should of gotten all the kindness after how much happened to me at such a young age. "Lucy you do look our age and we are pretty young to be soldiers. I am 17 soon to be 18 while Natsu is 17 the same as Gray" Erza informed me as I was shocked slightly as I thought Erza would of been older. 

"I was 16 when put into the crystal" I replied as they was in some shock. "How old where  you when you joined the war and made the weapons?" Gray then asked. "I was ten" I answered as they was in more shock. "I was the youngest to join later one Michelle joined but that time we was slightly older but I was put down as the youngest soldier to ever join battle" I then answered making them in more shock. "TEN! THEY LET A TEN YEAR OLD IN A WAR ZONE?" Erza shouted in pure rage and shock.

"We had no choice Zodiacs wouldn't let anyone else bond with them as Zodiacs is the weapon to help cure people with the Dark Curse. I was needed badly and at the time we was losing horrid" I then explained as Erza calmed down but her shouting got attention from something else as we heard a roar and stomping heading out way. "That sounds high level" Natsu spoke letting me fully free as he then pulled out Flames. Gray got Icer out while Erza go Twin Bloods. "Zodiacs" I spoke getting the keys to clash and come out and float around me.

"You have to call them?" Erza soon asked. "They are more than one person so I have to" I answered as a giant black and red monster came before us. It had wolf type teeth as glowing green eyes as it was taller than the trees around us. It's left arm was gone but in it's place was a sword as it roared once more. "This guy again" Natsu and Gray mumbled as I grew some wings. I knew after the second roar what it was. I flew up to be close to it's face getting the others to shout my name to move away fast.

He went to strike me with his sword until a magic seal showed up from the keys stopping the sword before it could touch me. I stood there without flinching looking toward it. It wasn't a normal monster it was part troll. "You are not evil or cursed but you are filled with rage and bloodlust please calm down" I spoke nicely as the part troll looked toward me in shock as it started speaking to me. I was able to understand the language as it was like a baby with the random 'goo goo ga ga' type things.

I soon heard the story on why the part troll had bloodlust for Natsu and Gray.....
