"Over my... Dead... Body!" Natsu said gasping for air.

"Okay" Devon said punching Natsu in the face. Natsu became unconscious.

"This is when the fun begins" Devon said walking away with a smirk.

"Come on Lucy! Hurry!" Happy yelled flying above Lucy.

"I'm running as fast as I can!" Lucy said out of breath.

After fighting Noah for a while Lucy decided she should run. She hit him with her whip and then ran. He was running swiftly behind Lucy getting closer and closer every minute.

What should I do? How do I get the advantage over him? Lucy thought. Before she could think of anything Noah spoke up.

"This chase is becoming boring. Let's end it." Then he hit her with yet another attack. This sent her flying.

"Owww" Lucy said rubbing her sore head. She then stood up.

Hit he attacked her once more but this time controlling her shadow. He too her shadow and forced it to kick her in the ribs. She fell to her knees in pain.
Noah then began using his own shadow and a few other around him to fight.

He came towards Lucy with his strange magical shadow controlling ability. After a few seconds she got. Lucy then called forth for Loki the lion spirit.

Realizing the situation Loki used his power to try and fight the shadows. In the mean time Lucy opened a second gate. The gate of torus the bull. The started to fight the shadows but to no prevail. The shadows came behind torus and stabbed him with Torus's own shadow which sent him back to the celestial world. After that the main attacks went to Loki. Loki fought hard but was eventually beaten as well.

Then it was Lucy's turn she got out her whip and tried to attack but the whip went right through the shadow.

The shadow was getting close so she called a out Scorpio the scorpion spirit. None of the spirits attacks were hitting the shadows though. Soon he too was defeated.

Lucy could feel her magic energy depleting so she did the last thing she could think of.

"Happy get out of the way!"Lucy yelled getting her gate key ready.

"Okay!" happy called back

She called for Gemini. Once she did they began to chant the spell for Urano Metria.

"Survey the heavens, Open the heavensAll the stars, far and wideShow me thy appearanceWith such shineOh TetrabiblosI am the ruler of the stars . Aspect become completeOpen thy malevolent gate Oh 88 stars of the heaven Shine!Urano Metria!"both Gemini and Lucy yelled.

As the attack hit the shadows they started to dissolve and the attacks stopped. That's when Lucy realized she was out of magic power.' I need to get out of here fast' Lucy thought to herself as she started to go as fast as she could to get out of there which wasn't that fast.

Lucy tried to gather the last of her magic power and summon caper corn but couldn't get all the power into it. She realized maybe she could loose the shadows if she ran through the woods. So with the last of her energy she ran.

"Come on Happy! We have to hurry" Lucy yelled to happy who was flying behind her.

I might make it! Lucy thought to herself. Then a beam of light blinded her momentarily.

"Ahhh!" Lucy heard Happy yell.

Finally when Lucy and happy got there sight back they saw who was standing in front of them.

Devon.

But if Devon's here then where's Natsu? Lucy asked herself.

"Where's Natsu?! what did you do to him!?" Lucy yelled wobbling as she stood up.

"Do throw a hissy fit. He's not dead if that's what your wondering" Devon said with an annoying smirk.

"Happy! go find Natsu! he must be hurt! Hurry!" and with that Happy flew away looking for Natsu.

Please let him be okay Lucy thought to herself.

"It's your time to go Blondew" Devon said with a grin." to make this more entertaining I'll let you have a 30 second head start. run. starting now!"

And with that Lucy ran. she knew he was right behind her but she didn't care.

It felt like Lucy had been running for hours when she came to a cliff.

She turned around and looked. Noah and Devon have her cornered.

"Looks like the end of the line" Noah said.
