Fairy Tail : Apocalypse and Angels

Her Pride is Lost

  Hollograms. Funny stuff we invent nowadays. 'Muggle' stuff.

Lucy stared at her keys. And at the chest where the broken bits of Aquarius's key was. She sighed and pulled out Loki's.
"Open, Gate of the Golden Lion, Leo!" 
Nothing happened. "Open!!" Lucy shouted, straining her energy. Nothing. She tried Aries. Again nothing. She tried everyone, including Grampa Crocs and even Plue's. Still nothing.
  "Open, Gate of the Sea-Bearer, Aquarius!" she shouted, trying to hold back tears. The broken pieces began to stick together and shined. Lucy gasped. It shined but fell down.
  The hope faded. She struggled and let her tears flow. As she placed the shards back she remembered.
Water!
She ran to the sink. If Aquarius did come, she'd be angry.
"Open, Gate of the Sea-Bearer, Aquarius!"
She closed her eyes and willed herself to meet Aquarius. A voice, a struggling one broke her hope.
  "Lucy, come, come quick. Where these. I have no time. We have no time," Lucy couldn't beleive it. Aquarius! She looked up. Aquarius was battered and covered in scratches and was pleading her.
  Her pride was lost.
"Aquari-"
"Shut up! Put on the clothes and let's go already!"
"O-ok,"
She tugged the clothes on as Aquarius frowned. "Let's go," she said.
   The place looked fine. Celestial world in check. Nothing was broken. The place looked beautiful like it always did. "Aquarius, what's wrong? Why did you need me?"
  "Hush," she said roughly, and pointed to huge rocks. They'd never been naturally there. They were ugly and grey, compared to the Celestial World.
  Lucy squinted and saw something. Celestial spirits! Loki, Aries, Scorpio, Gemini, Libra! Even Yukino's spirits were there. Not free, but in chains.
  "What happened?" Lucy gasped, wishing she could run and set them free. Aquarius smiled sadly at her and aimed her vase? at a small crystal animal. A Crystal Slave. She remembered the mist that sucked itself into her key.
  "Aquarius, can you aim at it?"Lucy whispered.
Aquarius held her fingers to her lips and nodded furiously. She then pointed at a huge dragon. A Crystal Guard.
   Lucy slipped. (Yes, so naive. Happens in every story. Don't ask me why)
She tumbled down an archway and fell right at the Guards' feet. It hadn't seem to have noticed her yet. Aquarius closed her eyes. She couldn't help it.
  She couldn't show much. She grabbed a rock and threw it behind the huge temple-like rocks. The Guard turned sharply and growled threateningly. Lucy clambered over a broken rock and broke into a swift run. But the slaves heard.
 
  Lucy's POV

The only thing I could hear was my panting and my feet as they hit the cold floor. I didn't dare look back. I couldn't. I saw Aquarius up above. She looked pleased and worried.
  I thought I heard something tingling. Did my footsteps sound like that? I saw Aquarius duck behing the archway and signal at me to go faster.
  I urgered myself on and a horrible pain started attacking my lungs. I clambered up the stairs to the archway and looked back. My heart skipped a beat.
  I broke.
