Forgive But NEVER Forget

2nd Origin?

Lucy POV:

"Lucy, wake up," I heard. I opened my eyes slowly to form an orange haired male, Loke, "Good Morning, beautiful."

"Good Morning, Loke." I rubbed my eyes and saw some breakfast on the nightstand next to me, 

"It's for you. We have a long day ahead of ourselves, so let's start it off right. It's 12:00 pm. I already cleaned the house and was about to go to Fairytail to tell master, but I had an idea to help you with summoning spirits."

"Okay, so what do I need to do."

"First, let me explain. Mages have a second "Container" for their Magic power that is largely unused called the Second Origin. This grants the Mage in question a large boost in Magic Power. So in your case, you would be able to summon 2 spirits at the same time and much more!" 

"Wow! That's amazing, let's start right away!"

"Well, the problem is that you would be going through excruciating pain during this time. I can't cast the spell, but you can. Here are the incantations, so once you start, you won't be able to go back. Are you sure you want to go through with this?"

Without giving it another thought, I said the incantation. Suddenly, random markings started to appear all over my body and my body felt like it was going to combust. Slowly my whole body felt like it was going to be extracted out of me. It was as if a person was stabbing each cell in my body. 

"Sorry, Lucy, but I should go. I rather not see you this way," Loke said as he went back to the Celestial world. 

I screamed in agony and kept reaching up for the sky. I suddenly imagined Natsu's smile.  

Natsu, I miss you so much right now! I just can't stop thinking about you. I loved you! So why did you betray me like that? Forget about my feelings for you, but what about our friendship? You always talked about family and friendship, so why did you say those things?! And I hate that your smile was the one to distract me!!!

By thinking these thoughts, I distracted myself from the pain.  By the time I knew it, the psychical pain had subdued, but the emotional pain was even stronger. 

Soon, the pain was completely gone. My body felt like a Magic Vehicle had crashed into me. I got up to check the time and the clock read 8:00 pm. 

I grabbed two keys and summoned them both with ease. Dang, it really did work. 

"Punishment time, Princess," Virgo said. 

"Oh, good job, Lucy!! I am so proud that you released your second origin," Loke said. 

"Thanks! Virgo, I wanted to summon you because I wanted to check the ability to summon two spirits," I said. 

"No problem," she said as she disappeared. 

"Loke, what's the next step," I asked. 

"Starting tomorrow, you will be practicing new spells from the books in the living room. You will master all the celestial spirit powers. Like star dress and such. But for now, get some rest. Your body is probably sore from the whole pain."

"Thanks, Loke." 

"Just save it for later," he said as he disappeared. 

Sorry Loke, but I don't plan on resting. I need to get stronger. 

I headed to the living room and looked for the first book. 

"Star Dress: A Celestial Spirit Magic Spell in which the user incorporates the power of a Celestial Spirit into their body. The power manifests itself in the form of a wardrobe change. Also, the user, by adopting the powers and appearance of the Spirit they choose, also adopts a portion of their powers, being able to make use of their Magic. This adoption of power, however, is not limited solely to the Spirit's Magic, but also includes their Magic Power itself, which allows the user to make use of spells of their own that may require more than one person due to the tremendous amount of Magic Power required to cast it. The caster needs to have a close bond with the spirits to use this magic." 

This could be pretty useful...
