The Divine Empress

Chapter 2

Bang! The hole that had been left in the wall started crumbling as he removed his fist. He was angry. No, he was furious. The expression that had been molded onto his face couldn't even be put into words. His eyebrows furrowed as he narrowed his eyes and clenched his teeth, looking straight at the empty space in front of him.

"Loki, calm down," Virgo said.

The pink-haired blue-eyes celestial spirit remained calm and collected but even she couldn't control the murderous aura that had began seeping from her. Her blue eyes with dilated pupils held remorse and anger in them. There was something about them that looked as if its enemy was right in front of her.

"Do you think I can be calm at this time! Look what they did to Lucy! I don't get how you guys can remain calm! Can you guys even be considered her spirits! More or less friends!" Loki roared at them.

"What makes you think I'm calm right now, huh?!" Aquarius shot back. "Even if I think that girl is stupid, that doesn't mean I don't care about her condition! I've been with her ever since she's a child! How can I not be angry at what that guild did to her!"

Loki stepped back and clicked his tongue. All the celestial spirits had gathered in the throne room, the Celestial King sat before them, staring down at them. Everyone remained silent as the tension in the room rose. Everyone had witnessed what had happened down in Earthland and though they tried to help and come down, Lucy had apparently stopped them from coming down. No matter how hard they begged, she wouldn't let them. They could only silently watched as the scene unfolded, her being attacked, punched, and stabbed. They could only sit there helplessly. Even the Celestial King watched the scene with bewildered eyes, gripping the arms of the throne tightly as he watched in silence.

"How..." the Celestial King began to say after a long period of silence. "...should we deal with these bunch of humans?"

All the celestial spirits turned to face him, eyes full of conviction.

"Your wish is our command," Loki said bowing. Soon, the other celestial spirits followed in motion. Each burning with anger and hatred for the Fairy Tail guild. The Celestial King looked up at the starry sky above him, fiddling with his mustache.

"As they say...the best revenge is always success. Do you guys not agree?"

Loki looked up with widened eyes at the Celestial King's statement. "Do you mean to have Lucy-" Before he was able to finish his sentence, the Celestial King nodded his head.

"To me, success is the best revenge. Besides, the reaction on their faces as she makes them fall one by one will be a show to watch. Don't you think so?" he said. At the last part, he grinned causing the spirits to be dumbfounded by their King's attitude.

"Your wish will be our command," they all bowed in unison with a smile on their faces.

"Go my subjects. Fulfill your duties. Raise our friend to be what she truly is meant to be," he commanded, thrusting his hand forward.

"Yes!"

They were dispatched and went to do the necessary arrangements with the other dimensions. Loki, Aquarius, and Plue went to go check on Lucy. She laid on the crystal bed decorated with the stars of the galaxy, sleeping. When Virgo had been summoned, they all had begun preparing the tools and supplies needed for treatment. In a flash, Virgo reappeared with Lucy draped around her arms. The image of Lucy all battered up and wounded was the worst scene they had ever witnessed. All the spirits began panicking as they saw the holes in her body, blood spilling from them. From head to toe, she was covered in blood and they were positive that she had broken bones and ribs.
