Devil Lucy- our time has come.

Chapter thirty seven~ lucys sacrifice

"Well, this is creepy." Lucy said with a shiver. She followed behind Jellal down the dark entryway, natsu in the lead to light the way. Sylvia brought up the rear, juvia, Gray and silver before her. Luna and Rebecca chatted quietly as they followed Lucy and jellal. "But, how can we fight something like this?" Rebecca whispered. "I...I don't know." Luna whispered back. "We give it our all, we don't back down, we are fairy tail!" Natsu said from the front.

Lucy, Gray, and juvia all smiled, being reminded of the younger Natsu. Rebecca smiled proudly at her father, giving Luna's hand a squeeze for encouragement. "Yeah, like dad said." Rebecca said with a smile. Silver threw his arm over Luna's shoulder as he got closer. "Don't worry, I'll be watching your back." Silver said with a wink. Luna felt her cheeks turning red, as she looked back down the dark tunnel. Acknologia awaited them, somewhere down this cave.

They reached the end of the cave, a large wooden double door stood before them. "Well, let's see what's on the other side." Lucy said, gulping slightly. She pushed the heavy doors open, her eyes squinting as the door squeaked. She looked around before opening the door all the way and leading the group inside. They were in a large barren room, a table stood in the center, a thrown at the end of the table. The room was dark and quiet. "This is creepy." Gray said with a shiver as they began to search the room.

"This place....its....oddly familiar." Wendy said, turning in circles as she gazed about the room. An image came to her, grandeeny standing in a room like this. She beckoned Wendy towards her with a smile, her tail swishing behind her. "This is were you will learn the truth." She said. Wendy blinked, as if waking from a dream, she turned around to find Natsu with the same expression. "This is were you will learn the truth!" They said in unison. "What are you talking about?" Lucy asked. "I'm not sure exactly, grandeeny took me to a place like this once. She told me I would learn the truth here, the truth about being a dragonslayer." Wendy said with a smile, remembering the memory fondly.

"Igneel told me the same once, I thought it was a dream." Natsu said, his head bowed. "But, what does it mean?" Gray asked, juvia and silver shrugged beside him. "Isn't this were Acknologia is?" Jellal asked. "Yeah, I can smell him." Natsu said, a slight growl to his tone. "Maybe that's what they meant?" Jellal suggested. "Maybe." Natsu said, as they continued to walk around the room. "Hey guys, check this out!" Luna said from across the room. They gathered to were Luna was, a small door in front of her. "There's no way he fit through that." Natsu said, shaking his head.

Luna pushed the small door, gasping when the wall moved with it. They found themselves in yet another cave leading to god only knew were. "Well, let's go then." Lucy said, leading the way. Luna slid her hand into silvers, her fingers interlacing with his. She was scared, he could tell by the sweat on her palms and her shaking form. He gently squeezed her hand to let her know he was right beside her. "I won't let anything happen to you." He promises, pulling her closer as they continued down the cave. She nodded, knowing he was telling the truth; she trusted him more than anything. 

The group stopped suddenly when they heard a horrendous roar. It shook the walls around them, making them fear they would be collapsed in. "The hell was that?" Gray said, his hands over his ears. "It sounds like...he's aggravated." Wendy said, her head tilted slightly as she listened. "Well, let's find out." Natsu said, as he continued through the cave. "I can see a light up ahead." Rebecca said, pointing her finger to the end of the tunnel. They walked through, holding their hands to block the sunlight. They found themselves in a pasture, green grass and birds chirping.

"I was definitely not expecting this." Lucy said in awe. In the middle of the pasture stood a tall oak tree, leaning against the tree with his eyes closed was Acknologia in his human form. His long black hair blew slightly in the wind as it covered his face, his shoulders moving slightly as he breathed. "It's about time you showed up." He said with a smirk, as they got closer. Lucy jumped slightly when he began to talk, thinking he was asleep. Natsu, gajeel, Laxus and Wendy stepped forward, ready for battle. Lucy stepped beside Wendy, a determined expression. "Juvia, Gray, jellal watch the kids please." She said, cracking her knuckles.

"Yes ma'am." Jellal said with a wink. Silver stood protectively in front of Luna and Rebecca, ready to defend them. "Have you made peace with your lives?" Acknologia asked as he stood. "For today you die." He said, as he transformed into a giant black and blue dragon. One of his arms was missing, thanks to natsus father Igneel. "We're ready to face you, and win!" Natsu declared. Acknologia flew into the air, the force of his wings bringing the dragon slayers and Lucy to their knee. "Enchantment, vernier!" Wendy recited, as Acknologia attacked. Her enchantment allowed them to dodge his attack in time.

"Enchantment, arms!" Wendy chanted, increasing everyone's power. Natsu, Laxus and gajeel began to attack in unison. Lucy used her devil magic to produce a protective sphere around them, and her wings to get a better vantage. "Devils roar!" Lucy chanted, as a vortex of black magic spewed from her mouth. Their attacks seemed to have no effect. "This isn't working!" Lucy declared, as she landed beside the others. They had been fighting for some time now, all of them were exhausted. "Give up, you can't win. I will take your powers for my own, starting with you." Acknologia said, pointing his claw to Lucy.

An idea formed in Lucy's head, what would happen if the king of dragons took on devil magic? What would happen to her? "You want my power, come and get it!" Lucy said, charging at Acknologia. He chuckled before swishing his tail, a bright light engulfed Lucy; raising her into the air. "Ahhhhh!" She screamed in agony, as she felt her magic being drained. "Lucy!" They all yelled. A dark aura began to seep through Lucy into the bright light. Acknologia began to laugh as he felt her power transferring into himself.

"Damnit!" Jellal cursed in aggravation. "Heavenly body magic, meteor!" Jellal chanted. A giant meteor fell from the sky, landing on Acknologias head. Acknologia simply shook the rubble from his head, glaring down at Jellal as he continued to take Lucy's power. "You.....want...my power?" Lucy panted to Acknologia. "Yes! It will be mine!" He said. Lucy smirked to herself, sweat pouring down her cheeks. "Then....have.....some more." She said, straining. She forced her devil slayer magic forward, feeling it leave her body. Acknologia began to scream and writhe in agony, falling to the ground he transformed back into a human.

"What have you done to me?" He demanded, as Lucy landed beside him panting. "You wanted it....you got it." Lucy said, as her halo, horns, wings and tail began to disappear in a golden light. A black aura began to surround Acknologia, until he crumpled to a pile of dust. Everyone rushed to Lucy's side to make sure she was okay. "I'm fine guys." Lucy assured, as Jellal helped her to her feet. "What did you do?" Luna asked curiously. "I guess my devil magic was to much for him to handle." Lucy said with a shrug. "But, what about you?" Wendy asked, referring to Lucy's appearance.

"I no longer posses devil slayer magic." Lucy said, no longer feeling the power inside her. "We did it!" Natsu yelled excitedly, jumping from one foot to the other as he pumped his fists in the air. "Let's go home." Gray said, taking juvias hand in hers. Natsu took Sylvia and Rebecca's hands in his as they chatted happily. Silver took Luna's hand in his, his thumb making small circles on her hand. Laxus and gajeel chatted happily with Wendy, jellal took Lucy's hand in his with a smile. They walked back to the guild with happy hearts, awaiting their next adventure.
