“Everyone!”, Hibiki’s voice alerted everyone who gathered around him.

“What is it?”, Kagura asked.

“A.....a.signal!”, Hibiki announced. “It’s the signal from earlier!”

“WHAT?!”, Erza and those who knows the plan instantly ran towards his side.

“It’s Lucy-nee! I’m sure of it!”, Romeo shouted out.

“Where is it?”, Sting asked.

“It’s.....60 kilometres from here”, Hibiki said.

“We would get there before the sun sets!”, Jura exclaimed.

“Tell everyone we’re heading out!”, Laxus ordered.

“Sir!”, a Rune Knight saluted in from the Council. “A report just came. Reina-sama safely arrived and is with the other teams who set out to annihilate Galion Alliance”, he reported.

The Council was relieved to hear that report.

“Is there anything else?”, one of them asked. At the far corner of the room, the guild masters are gathered to hear how their members are doing.

“It appears that a signal was seen and they’re heading towards it now”, the Rune Knight finished.

“What?!”

“Then, the girl did it”

“I have to congratulate you Makarov”, said the Council.

“I can’t be so glad just hearing that my child was able to send directions to them. Until all of them returned, only then will I gladly accept your praise”, Makarov seriously said.

“Natsu! Reina-san!”, Wendy, Gray, Happy, Juvia and Charle ran towards them.

“What is it? Did anything happened?”, Reina was the one to ask.

“Natsu! Lucy....she sent a signal to where she probably is!”, Happy told Natsu.

“WHAT?! REALLY?”, Natsu looked over to Gray and the latter nodded with a  smile.

“Romeo confirmed it and Erza said we’re heading towards it now. We have to gather together”, Gray informed.

“Alright. Let’s do this!”, Natsu ran ahead of them.

“Wait for me....Lucy”

“Prepare the simulation”, a man ordered.

“Sir, a word?”, Helga interrupted.

“What is it?”, the man asked.

“I’m terribly sorry, but, the girl isn’t ready to be converted yet. If we rush things, she’ll die during the process”, Helga replied, kneeling in front of him.

“What? You still haven’t subdued her?”, the man angrily asked.

“Not yet. But we’re close. The girl is rejecting our subjugation magic. It’s not natural”, Helga said.

“That girl isn’t that strong”, the man snapped back.

“But her will is! We have tried everything to take her down. Her body is fragile but her mind is something else. We can’t transform her into one of us if her mind rejects our ideals”

“Preposterous. We’ve done it to these hundreds of wizards in our hands! Are you saying that she’s an exception?”, the man angrily asked.

“We don’t know yet. Those ability type magic users are different because their magic can be negated since they’re using magic within their own. However, Celestial magic uses a medium of using their powers. Her contract with spirits who have their own consciousness and magic is the thing that stops us from entirely taking her”

“Take her to simulation. Monitor her conditions. If she shows even a hint of giving up, grasp it! We can’t waste too much time now that we’re this close”, the man turned his back on Helga.

“Understood. Forgive me, Master”, Helga clenched her fist.

“If you haven’t transformed her by tomorrow evening, I will have to ask Sheol to do it”, the man left her in the room with her minions.

“What.....”, Helga trembled to what she heard. “Sheol-sama can’t....she’ll kill her”

“Then, all the more reason for you to hurry up”, he grinned evilly.

Helga was left alone in the room. She decided to go over where Lucy is.

“I can’t believe there’s someone, as smart as you. For a Celestial Mage, you’re great. You don’t look that strong....no.....you are strong”, Helga glared at Lucy.

“If I didn’t lose my powers as a Celestial Spirit Mage, I might have all the keys of the Zodiacs”

“Helga-sama.....”, one of her assistants called out. Lucy was strapped down in the bed.

“What is it?”, Helga asked.

“We’re detecting a suspicious signal coming from her”, he said.

“What?!”, Helga looked at Lucy. She noticed the wrist strap that looks a lot like a bracelet. “Can it be?”, she ran over to get a closer look. She removed Lucy’s straps and held her right hand.

“Is this where the signal is coming from?”, she asked.

“We’re not sure, but it’s a possibility”, her assistant replied.

“This woman is smarter than I thought”, Helga scoffed. “Call Jaken! Tell him to come immediately, this girl must be sending a signal to her comrades”

“Understood!”, her assistant run off.

“Damned brat! I will show you how cruel Galion Alliance can be!”, Helga gripped Lucy’s wrist tightly.

Lucy’s wrist contracted and Helga was taken by surprise.

“Yeah right. You can do whatever you want with me. But, once the Ballam Alliance comes, let’s see who’s the crueller one”, Lucy glared at her.

“You...”, Helga was surprised.

“Helga-sama!”, her assistants rushed to her.

Lucy kicked Helga away and tried her best to get off the bed fast. Her body is aching all over but she has to escape or better yet, buy time for Natsu and the others to come.

“After her! Don’t let her escape!”, Helga shouted out.

She saw her Fleuve de Etoiles in a desk and took it with her as she escapes through the door.

“Natsu....hurry!”, Lucy thought as she managed to get past her assaulters.

“Master....”, a woman entered  large room.

“What is it?”, a man standing near an open window asked without turning around.

“There’s a rumour that I heard from Fiore. I think you would want to know”, the woman stated.

“What rumours?”, he asked as he turned around. What the woman said caught his interest.

“Well.....”, before the woman was able to say anything, the door busted open behind her with a loud banging sound.

“Arthur-sama/Arthur!”, Tidus and Minora shouted out.

“Tidus? Minora?”, Arthur asked with shock.

“This is a problem!”, Minora started out.

“Seriously.....”, Sarina mumbled as she recovered from what just happened.

“Ah Sarina-san, sorry”, Tidus bowed; apologizing for the harsh conduct they just showed.

“Ah! I’m so sorry!”, Minora bowed multiple times.

“It’s alright, I was just surprised”, Sarina said.

“I told you to calm down a little”, Tidus scolded.

“But....that’s because I can’t stop myself”, Minora pouted.

“We’re sorry, Arthur”, Tidus bowed towards Arthur as well.

“That’s fine. I’m used to it”, Arthur face palmed.

“What are you doing here Sarina-chan?”, Minora asked.

“I was about to tell Arthur-sama a report”, Sarina said. “What about you guys?”

“We’re going to tell him some news we heard”, Tidus asked.

“Wait a minute, what is it?”, Arthur asked when he felt like he was left out of the conversation.

“It’s Lucy!”, the three all shouted out.
