Lucy POV

When I woke up, I was back in my room in bed. I was still in my uniform and my keys had been placed beside my head on my pillow. I remembered Qiang telling the Night Class to put me to bed because I was exhausted, then I said something to the Night Class, and... everything stops there. I must have passed out from using so much magic in one go.

A glace to my window and I could tell it was about mid day, too late to meet Yuuki and Zero for lunch, but too early to try and go back to sleep. At least I felt like my magic had leveled out again.

With that in mind, and my stomach grumbling from having missed dinner after my lesson and lunch with my friends, I went down to the kitchen to pack a late picnic lunch. The servants were all smiles when they saw me and helped me pack a big meal for me as well as a second basket. I made my way to an area behind the Moon Dormitory where I was sure to be out of sight of any daring Day Class students. I spread out the blanket I had been given and pulled out my first key. I wanted to see how many spirits I could comfortably summon at once, and a day of relaxation seemed like the perfect thing to do.

"By the powers of the Jade Emperor, I beckon you to my side, Rat of the Chinese Zodiac!"

A swirl of jade light and Whisper was landing on my shoulder. "Good day, Empress. How may I serve you today?"

"I wanted to see how many Chinese Zodiac spirits I could summon at once since you all use a different amount of magic than my Golden Zodiac spirits," I told him as I handed him a cracker from the second basket.

He squeaked happily as he munched on the cracker. "I am glad to help you in any way that I can."

"Great, but you can just relax for now. Today is about testing my limits and giving you guys a day to enjoy yourselves." As he settled on my shoulder, I brought out Sheba's key. "By the powers of the Jade Emperor, I beckon you to my side, Tiger of the Chinese Zodiac!"

Sheba appeared, not roaring this time, but with her face turned up towards the sun and a content look on her face. "Please tell me that you summoned me just so I could spend some time in the sun," she purred.

"That and to help me test my limits. Are you hungry? I brought you a steak to snack on if you are."

"That is not necessary, this is enough," she told me as she laid across the grass beside the blanket and stretched out her paws.

I still felt like I had lots of magic to spare, so I pulled out my next key that I was pretty sure would enjoy a day in the sun. "By the powers of the Jade Emperor, I beckon you to my side, Snake of the Chinese Zodiac!"

I barely saw the light leave the key before I felt Kaa wrap around my leg and up my waist. "Empresssssss, how may I sssssssserve you?"

"Just relax, I want to see how many spirits I can summon, and let all of you enjoy the day." I told him as I stroked his scales.

"That issssss very kind of you," he said as he secured himself around my neck and I pulled out my next key.

When all was said and done, I was able to comfortably summon Monkey, Hou Yi, Night, and Qiang to join all of us for the picnic.

Whisper stayed on my left shoulder the whole time, snacking on crackers and reading the same book that I was reading. Kaa stayed curled around my neck most of the time, only leaving once to relax in the shade of Sheba's shadow; whom I spent the entire time lounging against. Monkey ransacked the picnic basket for all the fruit inside before settling on my right shoulder where he began grooming my hair. I gave Hou Yi an entire bag of sunflower seeds and another of corn, which he happily ate before roaming the area around our picnic. Night thoroughly enjoyed her steak before stretching out beside me to enjoy the sun. And Qiang spent the entire time curled up in a ball on my lap, purring with contentment.
