I felt a warm rush of energy heat my body as I opened my eyes to see Mira, Elfman, Cana, Levy, Yukino, Wendy, Charle, Lily, Juvia, Arcadios, and Hisui laying on the ground next to me. "Huh?" I yawned as I sat up and noticed they also began to wake. "What happened to us?" Now I remember, the damn king casted something upon me. So, I looked around at the others as my sister quickly stood to her feet and pull me up. "Hisui, relax—!"

"Don't ever make me worry about you like that ever again!" She buried her face into my chest as I patted the top of her head. "Three times, damn you! Three times you made me worry for your safety in one day!"

"I'm sorry, Hisui, I really am," I laughed softly. I looked up and saw how bright the realm was now, it was beautiful and awesome. "Hisui, Natsu did it."

"I know," she smiled widely at me.

"This way!" Juvia called out to us. "I see my precious Gray and the others!" My eyes brightened up with happiness as we all followed Juvia to another platform that was just over a bridge. "My darling!"

"Gajeel!" I shouted in glee as I ran into the arms of the iron Dragon Slayer, hugging his torso as tight as I could. "I'm so glad you're okay!" I quickly pulled away from him as I congratulated Natsu and Lucy on their task in saving the realm. "My mother would be so proud, even though this was kind of my fault..."

"Nonsense," Natsu smacked my back. "You did what you had to and it was for your friends, it's not your fault at all—huh? Nana, are you okay?"

"L-Loke..." I pointed across the way as tears welded up in both of my eyes. The spirits were back to normal and I was overwhelmed by tears, they made their way towards us as Loke came upon us with a huge smile spread from ear to ear.

"It's been a while, Nana," Loke greeted me as I started to tremble from the tears streaming down my face. "Huh, what's wrong?—Oh!" He gasped at my sudden act of affection, I grabbed him by his suit and pressed my face against his chest; I began to sob uncontrollably as he panicked and attempted to console me. "Um, did something happen?"

"She's just really glad to see that you're okay," Lucy spoke with a soft tone.

"More like she's overwhelmed to see you, since you almost killed her—oof!" Natsu groaned in pain as I looked back at them to see Lucy's elbow digging into his stomach.

"I...what?" Loke questioned.

"I'm not upset with you," I sniffled as I looked up at Loke with a smile. "I'm overjoyed to see that you're back to normal."

"Loke also kept talking highly of himself and mentioned how much he hated women," Happy tapped his temple as he added more to the list of how Loke acted while in his Eclipse counterpart.

"Me?" He gasped loudly and tilted my chin up to face him. "I would never say such a thing," he caught the attention of the group because due to his sudden act of affection, I let out a questioning gasp. "To see you this overwhelmed to see me, it warms my heart Princess Jolenta." He leaned in and pressed his lips against mine as my eyes widened in shock, the tears stopped pouring from my eyes, and my face lit up a bright red.

"Loke!" Lucy screamed as I just stared at him with widened eyes, I couldn't believe that he actually kissed me. I could hear the angered gasps my sister let out along with the malevolent energy I sensed from Arcadios. Natsu, Gray, Juvia, and Erza along with the rest of the group stared in utter shock at Loke and I.

"I don't think Sir Rogue will take this news so easily..." Yukino shuddered.

"He won't be able to tell, I'm sure," Mira laughed nervously and patted Yukino's arm.
