"I can't. I don't have a lot of energy!" Emiko said.

"We'll give you ours." Lucy said as she, Yukino and Hisui stepped forward. Emiko smiled. The four put one of their hands on the key.

"Did she say Raitofokkusu? Oh no!" Dāku said.

"Open! Gate of the Light Nine Tailed Fox! Raitofokkusu!" The four shouted. A bright light went around them. The four looked at each other and they were suddenly picked up. The four looked down to see themselves sat on a Light Nine Tailed Fox.

"I am at your aid my lady. Just call me Raito." The Fox was female. Her fur was white and eyes were yellow.

"The Light Nine Tailed Fox..." Hakuoh gasped.

Chapter Twelve: The Light Nine Tailed Fox.

Hakuoh was sat on the floor. She couldn't move very well because of her summoning. Etsuko and Natsu ran to her and carried her out of the way.

"This could end up being a blood bath." Hibiki said.

"Raitofokkusu." Dāku said.

"Dākufokkusu." Raito said. "You should had stayed in your cell you was put in 200 years ago." Raito said.

"So... There's a celestial fox?" Sting asked.

"Sort of. She's a real nine tailed fox, but she was put inside the key to preserve her magic and for her to have a home. The key is her home." Yukichi explained.

"Must be small." Gray said.

"Actually, it's pretty roomy." Etsuko said.

"You've been in one?" Kimitsuki asked.

"Yeah. I went in the phoenix's one. What was her name again? Fenkoku?" Etsuko asked.

"Fenikkusu." Flame said with a sweat drop.

"Right!" Etsuko said.

"What are you waiting for?!" Kira exclaimed. She was suddenly kicked off Dāku's back by Ameko. They both landed. "Ameko."

"Kira." Ameko said. They both shot magic at each other. Kira's was black, while Ameko's was white.

"Let's do this Raito!" Emiko said.

"Yes my lady." Raito said. A light orb began to form over one of her tails. A dark orb began to form over one of Dāku's tails. They both shot the orbs at the same time. The orbs had crossed each other and was hesding towards the two foxes. Dāku and Raito both dodged the attack. The two ran at each other and went to attack with their claws. Dāku on top and Raito under, but they both missed each other again. Yukino climbed near Raito's ear and whispered something. Raito nodded. She ran at Dāku and Dāku ran at her. They both did the same again, but this time, Raito had a light orb on all of her tails and shot four of them as Dāku was passing. When Dāku fell over from being shot, Raito turned around quickly and shot the remaining five orbs at five of his tails, coursing them to burn.

"Damn you Raitofokkusu." Dāku said as he got up weakly. He felt a pain in his chest and put his paw there. He looked and saw Kira fall to the ground. She was dead, but she was knock unconscious, which made him weaker. "Damn you weak mortal."

"What's with the bad breath?" Ameko asked.

"Why does everyone point that out?! It's not that bad!" Dāku shouted.

"Actually it is dude." Etsuko said.

"Now Raito!" Lucy shouted. Dāku looked and immediately, he got thrown into a wall, almost breaking it. Dāku was about to get up, until he felt a pain in his sixth tail.

"Two tails left. I need to get hers." Dāku thought. He ran at Raito and claw one of her tails. Raito's eyes went wide as she quickly jumped away.

"I've got it." Emiko shouted. She climbed to Raito's tail and began to heal it. Raito used another tail to shoot orbs at Dāku. Dāku managed to dodge them all, but, once Emiko finished healing one of Raito's tails, Raito shot two at the same time, which Dāku could dodge.

"Hey." Hisui said. She whispered something in the girls ears and nodded. Yukino jumped off and ran to the others. She then whispered something to them and they all nodded.

"You're done for." Raito said. She had a light orb forming. Emiko then put some of her power in it. Raito glanced at her and Emiko glanced back with a smile. Raito smiled. Raito shot the orb at Dāku and it hit both of his tails.

"I might not be able to use my tails, but I can still fight!" Dāku shouted. He tried to move, but couldn't. He looked to see Yukichi and Gray. They had frozen his feet in solid ice. Dāku growled. Suddenly, plant vines went around his legs and around his tails. It then went around his snout.

"Good one Droy!" Levy said. Droy grinned at the praise made by Levy.

"Purple flame! Net!" Romeo shouted, creating a large net to go around Dāku.

"Should I shrink him?" Yuuji said.

"What?!" Dāku shouted.

"Go for it Yuu!" Naomi shouted. Yuuji created a large ball of light and threw it at Dāku.

"Bright Orb sizer!" Dāku began to shrink, to a size of a dog.

"I didn't expect that." Raito said with a sweat drop. Everyone else sweat dropped. Jinsune picked picked Dāku up and out his hand on Dāku's snout. Dāku slowly began to turn to stone.

"You can turn things to stone?" Wendy gasped.

"Petty cool huh? Only I know the antidote to reversing it." Jinsune grinned.

"Put the stone figure near a fire as hot as a fire dragon's roar." Hakuoh said.

"Ok, now all of us know that." Jinsune said.

"I shall take my leave my lady." Raito said.

"N-no, no, wait!" Emiko shouted. Raito disappeared and Lucy, Emiko and Hisui fell to the ground.

"Ow..." They groaned.

"You all did it. Well done." Makarov said. He and Kino then turned to Natsu and Etsuko with veins popping out. The two jumped.

"YOU WENT WITHOUT YOUR TEAMS?! WHAT WERE YOU THINKING?! WERE YOU THINKING AT ALL!?" The two shouted.

"They never think." Happy and Flame said.

"Shut it cat!" Natsu and Etsuko shouted. Everyone laughed.

"Master, please calm down." Kiyomi said.

"This isn't good for your health." Mira said.

"Two Mira's..." Bickslow began to sweat.

"That means... Two people who you do not mess with." Freed said.

"Why are you two sweating so much?" Laxus asked, with his arms folded.

"So, what about her?" Kiyomi asked, pointing to Kira.

"She'll to go prison." Bob said.

"Great." Naomi said. She then pushed Kasai, Akihito and Jinsune forward. "Now can these three join the Phoenix Guild? Please?" Naomi said. Jinsune and Kasai was grinning.

"I didn't say I wanted to join this guild!" Akihito shouted. Kasai just hit him on the head. "Hey!"

"I suppose. They did help." Kino said.

"Hey, what happened to that other girl?" Evergreen asked.

"We left her." Freed said. Suddenly, a gas bomb was thrown at them. Everyone jumped out of the way. They looked to see Marome standing there.

"I hate... Happily ever afters." She said.

"Well you sure ain't getting one with that attitude." Lucy said.

"I will avenge Kira! I shall bring the nine tailed fox back! I shall-!" Marome began to yell, but then she was knocked out with some ice. Everyone looked at Yukichi, who looked away while whistling.

"What? She talks too much." Yukichi said and everyone laughed.

"Well, let's get this done because we do have a party to prepare for." Kino smiled.

"Seriously?" Emiko asked happily.

"Is the guild ok?" Kiyomi asked worriedly.

"We get two parties in one week?" Naomi asked with a sparkle in her eye.

"We don't have to wear gowns again do we?" Yukichi and Etsuko asked.

"Yes, Yes, Yes and no." Kino said.

"Yes!" Etsuko and Yukichi cheered as they jumped in the air.

"Well, let's go children." Makarov said. Ameko picked up Kira, Jinsune picked up Marome while holding Dāku.

"Hopefully that's the last time that will happen." Makarov said.

"Agreed. I don't want to see another dark Nine Tailed Fox in my life." Kino said.

TBC...
I don't own the picture.
