Journey of a Light Mage - A Fairytail Fanfic

Chapter 71 - A Pegasus Kind of Date

***Rachel's p.o.v***

I panted as I tried to catch my breath.

"Come on Rae! I know you can do more! Don't hold back on me!" Laxus shouted.

"Right!" I shouted back.

"Alright, let's go, Prism!" I shouted activating Spirit Force.

Prism lifted me into the air as Laxus and I resumed our match.

It's been about six more months since my-um-incident, and Laxus and the others have been training with me intensely in order to help me figure out my magic. Laxus and the others agreed to focus on what I know and improving anything recent and/or new, while Freed did research on my magic.

While he was unable to find any information on my magic and I was unable to learn anything new, I was however much stronger than I was before, and Prism and I have gained complete control of our Spirit Force as we can now control it at will. Plus, thanks to our training, I can now keep Prism out for an entire day no problem. Now Prism can be out more than usual.

I released my hold on Spirit Force as Prism appeared beside me panting as heavily as I was.

Laxus smiled through his own albeit lighter panting, "Let's stop here for today."

I nodded in agreement as Laxus tossed me a towel and my water bottle.

"You two are improving greatly," Laxus smiled.

I smiled back.

"Feel anything different or new?" Laxus asked seriously.

I shook my head, "No. Nothing."

"Don't worry, we'll figure it out," Laxus smiled as he playfully hit me.

I playfully hit him back with a chuckle, which ended up in a playful sibling fight.

***Timeskip***         ***Freed's p.o.v***

I turned curiously as the guild doors opened to see Rachel, Prism, and Laxus walk in smiles brightening their features.

I smiled at the sight.

"Rachel's back," Ren muttered.

"Rachel's been working hard huh?" Hibiki muttered.

"It's quite impressive," Eve muttered next to me, making me jump in surprise at them.

"Don't you think she deserves a break?" Hibiki asked me.

"Yeah, I guess," I answered.

"You guess? Isn't she your girlfriend?" Ren questioned.

"Yes, but what does that have to do with-" I started.

"When was the last time the two of you went out on a date?" Eve asked.

"I don't think I've ever seen the two of you go out on a date," Hibiki concluded.

I blinked and surprise before I thought back on that.

"I believe the last time was our first time back way before the guild disbanded," I muttered.

"That long ago?" Eve gasped.

"Don't you know how to treat a lady?" Ren accused.

"Well..." I started as I glanced at Rachel.

"With everything that's been going on, it hasn't been my top priority," I muttered sadly.

"Well, now's your chance," Hibiki encouraged.
