Revenge is Sweet

Lucy

The talk with Zeref was super cool. We talked about many things: the guild, our relationship, how to take down the magic council, and many more. Hopefully, the other guilds wouldn't rebel against us. If so, then we would be totally screwed. It was easily remembered as one of the best nights of my life. If he did bring a ring or something like that, I would flip.

I laid in my bed, freezing. We had a super cold rooms, and I didn't like it too much. Go and practice your nature powers, Lucy, a voice told me, and I yawned, stretching my stiff body. "Um...er—" I start, but totally stop. My mind freezes, and I gasp in horror when someone stands in the doorway. It was....Wendy. She had a panicked look on her face.

"I-I'm...cold," she said, shivering. I sigh, taking my warm bedsheets off, handing it to her. These were probably the warmest in the house. I also brought my own. They were super cozy. I sigh, glancing all around curiously. "Here. Take these," I say, and she nods, going back to her bedroom. I got in a black outfit, sneaking out and grabbing my keys. I still need these.

"Open, gate of the lion. Leo!" I yell, and he sighs. "Leo, make me some light. I need to train. Open, gate of the goat! Capricorn!" He stood there, and I nodded in agreement. "Guys, I got this brand new power. Can you please help me learn it by tomorrow?" They nod, and I grinned. "Thank you so much!"

"So, what is it?" Leo asked, and I smiled, explaining to them what exactly happened. His eyes widened when I said something about the contest. Capricorn looked impressed, but didn't show too much emotion. "So, they gave me all kinds of nature powers," I say, and they nod, and we started to train. The night was going good until the last and final test.

"Fight us and show us what you have learned," Leo said, and I gasp in complete shock. Both of them? No. I don't want to. "Or, fight us all." I shake my head no and sigh. "Lucy..?" Tears come rolling down my cheeks. I couldn't hold it in anymore. I hate fighting my friends...my celestial spirits. They have been there for me—like forever, and I can't fight them.

"No. I—" I start, but he is already attacking me, a form of light in his hands. I gasp in horror, shocked. "Fine then! Vines, come forth!" They shield him, and he bumps into it, the light going out. "I hate fighting my friends, but this will have to do." He groans, and I glance all around. "Nature dragon ROAR!" Tons of vines, leaves, and nature stuff comes at him.

He gasps in surprise, allowing it to happen. "Well done, Lucy," he said weakly before disappearing. I sigh, glancing at Capricorn. He sighs, and I know. He's probably thinking: Lucy, your movements have gotten sluggish. But, he doesn't say anything. He just smiles and then nods in delight. "So..?" I start, but he doesn't even look in my direction.

"Good job!" He said. "You will do great tomorrow." I force a smile before looking away. He disappeared as well, and I hurried back to my hotel, falling fast asleep in my bed, freezing.
