After the GMGs and Tartarus things change a little, Lucy has developed her powers and gotten a new key, but Natsu sees her as weak. To make things more interesting. Lucy breaks her magic seal, unlocking magic and memories she had forgotten.
I watch the guild from my balcony annoyed by the level of noise. How can the other dragon slayers stand this? I watch as Gajeel follows Levy to the library and Natsu picks a fight with Gray but where is Wendy? "Laxus is she back yet" I turn to see Wendy and Evergreen they both are just as worried as I am Lucy took an S class mission yesterday and we were worried.
It wasn't like her to go on solo missions usually she went with me or Mira. Shaking my head I see the worried look that passes between them. As if sensing our worry Natsu looks at Wendy and me and says only loud enough for Dragon slayers to hear "Maybe the weakling died"
No sooner than the words were out of his mouth did I start striking him with lightning.
"Want to say that a bit louder Salamander"
Everyone stops fighting and looks at Natsu but before he can say anything I strike him again.
"Now there Laxus he isn't worth it"
A calm but familiar voice says I look towards the doors to see Lucy standing in the doorway with a smirk on her face.
"Your back" Wendy and Ever shout before tackling the blonde in a hug. She laughs and hugs them both before turning those beautiful golden brown eyes to me I open my arms for a hug a grin spreads on her face as she steps into my arms "Missed you too Sparky"
Mira makes her way over "Well how did your mission go" Lucy looked up at us and held up a key holder on it hung several diamond keys and a few black ones. The guild immediately burst out in cheers.
As usual, the guild watches as the keys vanish and new marks appear on Lucy's back they all them connect and form a cherry blossom tree to hide what they actually are. Lucy then turns to the guild and asks "What do they form now?" raising the communication lacrima they then show Lucy the cherry blossom on her back.

Smiling she pulls back her shirt and starts bottoming it. After a few minutes, she misses and allows Wendy to heal her ."They were right acnologia is back in Fiore " He is looking for someone or something" I watch as the old geezer nods. This isn't good at all that dragon is out for blood.
I watch as Lucy makes a memory projection "Master what is that?" I tense immediately as I recognize the symbol "Alverez Empire where did you see this" I seethe but Lucy pulls me into her taking in her scent I calm down a bit "My mission was to destroy a dark guild that was trying to resurrect Zeref when I arrived that symbol was everywhere after I finished saw all evidence of the symbol disappear"
Looking at gramps I nod before taking Lucy out of the guildhall "Lucy that Empire is ruled by Zeref if you saw it and then got the word about Acnologia it could mean that he is looking for Zeref and I think he intends on killing him."
At this Lucy nods and looks up at me "Laxus that's not all while on my mission I heard something about dragon players having mates is that true?" I gulp and look away as the question exits her mouth looking away from her I answer "It is after a certain age we can find out who it is"
Lucy then steps back from me and I smell salt looking at her I see tears running down her face. I move to hug her but she steps back "Who is your mate Laxus," she asks but I can tell that she is hurting "Before you jump to conclusions Blondie it's you my mate is you"
Her head snaps up and she hugs me taking in her scent I smile a little "I think we should head back to the guild nodding she steps back and holds my hand with and a bright smile on her face. I can't help but return it as we walk back to the guild in comfortable silence.
