Levy's P.O.V

I am mentally and physically drained. Well more mental then physical. I bend over panting on a small hill just out sound of Magnolia. Sweat is dripping down my face, not just from all this work but also from the heat.

"Levy!" I hear Gajeel call out as he runs up the grassy hill without a sweat.

I sit down on the grass as Gajeel walks up to me.

"Damn... it's getting hotter everyday." I say.

"Maybe you should take a brake." Gajeel says, sitting down next to me.

"Yeah... I think I will." I say as I completely lay down on the top of the hill.

I look up at the clouds and slowly close my eyes. I feel something move next to me and I open my eyes again and slowly turn my head to my left, to find Gajeel laying on his side looking at me with his hand holding his head up. I smile at him and he smiles back.

"You're getting good Lev." He says.

"Thanks Gajeel." I reply.

"You've worked hard. when you first started you could barley teleport to three feet from where you were. Then one month latter you can teleport from the guild to just outside of Magnolia. You've done well." Gajeel said.

I slightly blushed a bit, it was kind of rare for Gajeel to be nice. But he has helped me so much over the past month.

"I owe it all to you." I say with a smile.

He seemed a little shocked to hear that.

"And a bit of reading." I continue.

Gajeel just chuckles and sits back up. He looks back down at me with a small smile on his face.

"You flatter me Lev." He says. "I bet you'll get to see bunny girl really soon if you keep at it, but please, just don't push yourself to hard. I don't want you over exerting yourself." 

"Awe, does the big, tough Gajeel have a soft side for little old me?" I say teasingly to Gajeel, as I sit up next to him.

Gajeel lifts his hand up and rubs my head, making my hair messy and then says. "Don't tell anyone okay."

I blush a little and look up at him after he takes his hand off my head. He has a little bit of pink on his cheeks but I just ignore it.

Gajeel has been really nice and helpful this past month and it's a little out of character for him. It's not that I don't like it, I love it, I just wonder why he's been like this... Maybe it has something to do with Lucy running off... 

"Okay shrimp, how about you teleport us back to the guild. I can't be bothered walking." Gajeel says, as he stands up and stretches his hand out to me.

I take his hand and stand before saying. "You're so lazy. Anyways lets go."

I hug on to Gajeel's arm and we teleport back to the front of the guild.


Lucy's P.O.V

"So like this?..." I ask my grandfather, as I stand with my legs spread slightly apart and my arms stretched out in front of me and both my hands opened.

"No put your left hand over your right, yes thats it." Grandfather say's as I correct myself.

I had only arrived to the Celestial Kingdom about eight hours ago and since then I've been training with my grandfather the Celestial King. So far all we've done is perfected things I already know, like summoning my Spirits and using my wipe correctly, which was surprisingly difficult. Then he gave me a three hour long theory lesson about the powers I will have to master, which was kind of boring. So now I am currently learning how to change the level of my Magic Energy so my power won't be revealed and so I can surprise an opponent in battle, at least thats what grandfather said.
