Draco the celestial dragon

Erza is back

I sat up on the second floor. I watched as the guild functioned normally and the town seemed calm. I was waiting for Loke to arrive at the guild, so I just decided to wait on the second floor, maybe look at the new S-Class jobs.  I watched as Lucy looked for a job at the request board.

Just then Loke entered the guild. He looked around and he smiled once he saw me. I waved to him and got up from my seat by the railing.

He went over to the request board to look for a job, we decided to take one together.

As I was coming down, he introduced himself to Lucy. And then a flash caught my eyes. I immediately looked down to her belt where some keys were located. My eyes widened. I know Loke saw the keys too as he was freaking out.

She is a celestial spirit wizard. I gulped. I don't know if I could deal with one.

Lucy seems nice, but that is what they all seem like, unless you are a spirit yourself and they like to torture you.

I took a deep breath. She is a fellow guild member, I can't think lowly of her.

I have an idea! I'll observe her for a while and see how she interacts with spirits.

Loke said a hasty goodbye and Licy and ran out of the guild, right past me.

I shook my head and headed to the bar. Lucy sat at the bar, in the seat right next to me.

" what is up with him?" I smile sadly at her.

" he has had a bad past with a celestial wizard, don't worry about it right now."

I was sad. I knew that if Loke didn't go home soon, he will fade. Unknowingly to him, I have been giving him some extra magic to make him last longer. I don't want him to leave me. I do love him. 

We still haven't told each other about our real selves. Of course I know all about him, but to most spirits my key, let alone existence is a mere legend, some think it is just a myth. I don't really exist to them unless they have met me, so Loke has no clue about who I am.

I smiled at Lucy. "Don't dwell too much on it Lucy, I won't even tell you more. As his girlfriend, I respect his privacy and don't tell anything he might not want revealed, plus I know as much as you do. He barely talks about it."

Lucy looked thoughtful, until Natsu knocked her off her seat. I saw gray standing a couple feet away looking smug. They were about to fight again. Until Loke came running back in. " SHIT, THIS IS BAD!!!"  He came to my side and wrapped me in his arms. He hid his face in my hair.

" what happened love?" I asked. Everyone in the guild had their eyes on us, wondering what was happening.

" she's back." My eyes widened in excitement. Everyone else started sweating a freaking out. They struggled to tidy up the mess and everyone tried to act calmly.

" Erza's back!" I yelled out happily. Mira was explains to Lucy who Erza was, while Natsu and gray were struggling to look friendly towards each other.

We heard and felt a slight trembling. We heard her loud footsteps approach the guild. The open doors had a huge shadow cast upon it. Erza finally entered the guild , carding a large..... Horn?

Everyone was slightly sweating in fear.

Erza's eyes raked over the guild.

" where is master?" Her voice rang out through the silence.

I smiled. " he's at a conference Erza." I said. Her eye landed on me, who was still wrapped in Loke's arms.

" I see. Well, it is great to see you Dea. And LOKE!!!" Said man flinched.

"Y-yes Erza?" His eyes peeled out from my hair.

" Remember, Dea is like my sister, if anything happens to her, you are dead."

Loke quickly nodded and I smiled and pecked his cheek.

Erza then started to criticize everyone in the guild.

" GRAY, NATSU AND DEA!!" She said.

" I would usually go to master first, but seeing as he is not here, I need you help." My eyes widened. Erza never needed help. This must be important.

" I wish to form a group with you to help me defeat my enemy."

The three of us quickly nodded.

" good, meet me at the train station in an hour." With that, she walked out, taking her horn.

I looked toward Loke.

" you'll be ok while I am gone right?"

He smile and gave me a sweet kiss.

" of course. I will miss you very much while you are gone my darling." I hugged him and went back to my apartment to gather my belongings for travel.
