Her Starlight (CoLu Fanfiction)

Chapter 1

Note: This is the sequel to His Antidote, so if you plan on reading that, I suggest you read it first. Else you'll get spoiled in here.

I was actually reluctant to make a sequel, since it's already been long since I ended the first one, but I realized I haven't ended Lucy and Cobra's, specifically Lucy's, adventures. There were a lot of aspects left unsolved and I also fell in love with the story, Crime Sorciere's friendship, Lucy and Cobra's relationship, and all. I want to satisfy myself and the readers by giving them a proper ending.

So here you go, I hope you enjoy and love this fanfic too!

"Three, four... ten, twenty... a large number of enemies approaching from the left."

From the lacrima, I carefully observed as they fought against the rock puppets of Kin, our enemy. I could feel the brainwaves of hundreds of other people slowly getting closer, probably Kin's men.

"I'm sending back up now." I uttered, my hand in a salute position as I communicated with them telepathically.

"Thanks, Lucy!" I heard Meredy's voice in my head.

I cut off the communication, standing up from my crouching position as I took three gold gate keys from the pouch Midnight gave me.

"Open! Gate of the spirit lion, Loke!"

"Open! Gate of the spirit goat, Capricorn!"

"Open! Gate of the golden bull, Taurus!"

Three pillars of gold light appeared in front of me, the first one materializing a man with orange hair that resembles a lion's mane, wearing an elegant black suit. A tall, goat-like humanoid appeared on the second pillar, while a bull-like humanoid on the third.

I smiled at them, my hands on either side of my hips as I looked at the three. "Listen. Jellal and the others are outnumbered and are gonna need your help. They're battling Second Grim right now."

"We got it. You can count on us, Lucy!" Loke gave a thumbs up, a playful smirk on his lips as he turned to the direction where the others are.

"Alright. I trust you guys!"

The three then ran to where Second Grim is, a bit further down the mountain I am at right now.

"Yosh!" I crouched back down, turning to the lacrima crystal where I could see the others fighting. Aside from Kin's hundreds of rock puppets, there's the other guild members as well. They are totally outnumbered, but I'm sure they can pull this off.

I raised my hand back in a telepathic position, searching for the brainwaves of my friends. "Loke, Capricorn and Taurus are on the way."

"Thanks a lot, Lucy!" Sorano's panting voice replied, and from the lacrima, I can see they're all already tired of battling endlessly.

Suddenly, I detected even more brainwaves coming. No, not towards their direction but...

I quickly turned around, sensing presences getting nearer and nearer. And I was right, about twenty or more enemies were approaching me.

"Crap." I uttered, summoning my whip on my right hand.

"Lucy? What's wrong?!"

"Never mind me. I can handle it!" I cut off the communication again, turning to the group of dark mages approaching, led by one of Second Grim's key members, Guk.

Guk stopped a few meters away, and so did his fellows. He smirked viciously, both of his hands clasped behind him. "Oh? So here's where the other member is hiding."
