The Guardian and The Priestess

Strange

"How did an element, know my name?" he asked, raising his eyebrow.

"You brute, respect her for she's The Priestess!" Erza exclaimed angrily, and his eyes widen.

"So, the divination was true?" he asked, more like he questioned himself.

Erza nodded in response, as she battles her opponent.

"Just call me Lucy. Nice to meet you, Gray! And, those are Loki and Erza." I smiled at him, then pointed at the two whose currently engaged in a serious battle, and offered my hand.

He took it and gently smiled.

"Thanks for the help, Lucy." He muttered lowly.

"And you two, as well." Nodding at Erza and Loki.

"So, will you help us find the others?" I asked, warily.

"Why not?" he chuckled.

"Thank you!" I exclaimed, happily.

"But first, can you help me with the crew?" he knelt, seeking for assistance.

"Just as you said. Why not?" I grinned.

"Loki!" I called and he looked up, then smiled.

"Want to try it?" he smirked and I rolled my eyes.

"Merge: Leo." I called and Loki vanished in my sight.

I felt Loki's spirit, slowly combining with mine.

My clothes turned to a black dress.

He whispered in my ears and told me what to do.

My hands glowed with light, and I dashed towards the opponents bare handed.

My physical strength increased and, before I knew it, I was already knocking the enemies out.

I let out an ear piercing growl and the ship swayed.

Then, I knocked the woods on the ground, breaking the ship in half.

"Gray, bring your crew to the other ship. Erza, knock people out from the other ship and tie them." I ordered.

"Release: Leo." I panted and Loki vanished.

"It's no good, after all. It took too much of my strength." I huffed, holding my chest firmly.

"We need more practice." Loki's voice rang my ears.

"Yeah." I smiled and my clothes slowly went back to the pumpkin dress.

I seriously need to change.

"Hainu." I whispered and Plue grabbed me from the sinking ship.

We landed on the other ship.

"Is everyone okay?" I asked, feeling weary.

"Everyone's fine." Erza reassured.

"That's good. Let's go home." I smiled weakly and they nodded.

"Gray, hop on." I offered and he sat behind me.

Then, we flew.

"So, this is what it feels like to be up in the air!" Gray smiled in awe.

I just looked at him and he blushed.

"I practically lived in the sea, my whole life. So, this is all new to me." He explained and I nod.

"How did we convince you to join, finding the others?" I asked.

"Well, you see. My dad always tells me this story, behind our marks. He said that only chosen few were given a chance to participate in saving this kingdom. In other words, we're the chosen ones. He said that there was a premonition that right after the judgement, we each will be given a wish. As long as you're worthy, though. But, if there's a chance that I could grab a wish, I'd do anything." He reasoned.
