Lucy POV
Today is a new day. Today is the day I finally learn the secret art spells. It's going to take a while to master, but that's okay. The first one is called Hydro Aqua Devastation. I'm not sure what it is but Aquarian is going to explain it to me.
"Alright, Lucy. Let's start. Now Hydro Aqua Devastation is where you start summoning water through your arms, channeling and focusing your magic as it slowly starts to solidify into a combination of a solid-like shape with a texture of soft squishy water as it eventually minimizes to your hands. With your hands in a solidified form of water, you are able to shift the water into various forms and can be durable enough to take on multiple spells without it losing it's stability."
"Wow! This spell is great!" I exclaim
"Yes, however there is some limits when using this magic, you are not able to expand the water without it losing it's ability. Also if you add to much heat into the water, it will turn into steam. But if you make the water too cold it will freeze. The hardest part of this spell would be the temperature of the water. You need to make it the right temperature. Go ahead and start."
I nod and stand up. I start summoning water through my arms and focus on it to turn into a ball. I then try to control the temperature of the water. I guess I put too much heat into the water because it turned into steam. Man, this is going to be a long day.
Couple days later I finally controlled the water to the right temperature, But I can't get it to hold its shape for long. It will only hold for a minute or so. Currently I am working on holding its shape. Well I was until Aquarian flew in and almost landing on me.
"Hey! Watch where you're going! You almost landed on me!"
"Sorry. I got you something. Try it on." Then she threw the clothes at me. Luckily I caught them in time and went behind a tree to change. When I was done changing I looked at myself. I am wearing a light purple dress with detached sleeves and thigh high leggings. (A/N It's the dress in the media. She will be wearing this for now on.) When I came out of the tree she threw me a black clip for my hair. I put it on and looked at my reflection in the river. I really like this outfit.
"Thanks, Aquarian. I really like it."
"Great because it looks good on you."
"Aw thanks."
"Whatever. Just go back to training. "
I laugh and go back to training. Alright now to figure out a way to good the shape...
*-*
Couple weeks later.
I have now mastered Hydro Aqua Devastion. I am currently walking towards the river to meet Aquarian. She said she was going to teach me another Secret art spell.
When I reach the river all I see is a neatly folded black cloak with red clouds and a stack of papers on top. Lastly an envelope is on top of the papers. I pick up the envelope and Open it. I took the letter out and read it.
Dear Lucy,
I'm sorry I couldn't say bye, but I had to leave quickly. I was hoping to spend more time with you, but something important has happened. I need to help my fellow dragons into defeating this thing.
Don't think I forgot about the spell I was going to teach you. The stack of papers has all the information you need. I wish you the best of luck, but I doubt you will need it.You were my best student, after all. Also the cloak is for you. I hope you like it and will treasure it.
Stay safe, my child.
Until then... Farewell....
-Aquarian.
P. S. I gave Loke a present for you. Summon him and he will give you a surprise.
The letter was now damp, since I had been crying. This is probably what Natsu felt. I quickly put on my cloak. I gather my things and call Virgo.
"Punishment time, princess? "
"No! You know I don't do that! Can you take these papers. They are important."
"As you wish, princess. If that is all I shall be leaving. "
"Alright. Thank you and bye. "
Virgo then left with a poof. I walk slowly towards the train station, thinking about the times I had with Aquarian. Where did she go? Why did she have to leave? Did she not care about me?
No. I can't think like this. Aquarian would have a good reason to leave. She might act mean, Just like a spirit I know, but she wouldn't leave without having a good reason. After all she said she had to help her fellow dragons.
I put my hood on and walked out of the forest. I decided since it was still early I'll shop around town. I bought some fish for Happy, and a strawberry cake for Erza. I called Virgo again and ask her to take care of these things for me. She then disappeared with the gifts.
I started walking towards the train station when I suddenly tripped. My hood comes off as I caught myself before falling and started looking around for anything that could've caused me to fall. I then saw a shadow near a corner. Rouge. I quickly run back into the forest and go by the river. I look back to see if he is still following me. He is.
So I make my coat turn into water, as well as my clothes, and jump into the river. I watch as he steps out of the shadows looking around frantically.
"What th-? I swear she was right here!" Suddenly Sting jumped out of the trees, walking towards Rouge. He place his hand on Rouge shoulder and pointed to the river.
"She's right there. There's no doubt about it." He then walks towards the river. "Alright come out Blondie. "
I curse under my breath as I slowly solidify myself and get out of the river.
"How did you know? "
"I saw you jump into the water. Pretty nice trick. Now tell me where did you learn it from? "
"A dragon, perhaps? " Rouge added.
"Uhh... Well... You see... " I slowly start backing away.
"Yeah? What is it? "
"Hey, wait! Rouge did you trip me? You know you could've just walked up to me and talked to me like a normal person!"
"Yeah. Sorry about that."
"Now answer the question, Blondie. "
"Okay. I was just practicing some other magic. "
"What kind of magic? "
"Well would you look at the time! I must be going. Hope we meet again! " I quickly run off, leaving behind a shocked Rouge and Sting.
I quickly run into the train station and buy a ticket to magnolia. The train won't come in for about another 30 minutes. I decided to get some food before the train comes.
When I get back from my delicious meal, the train is about to board.
I quickly get on and see the only seats left were by Sting and Rouge.
Just my luck.
I quickly put my hood on and sit by Rouge. Sting is across from him with the exceeds next to him. Hmm that reminds me, do I get an exceed? I hope I do they are so cute! Speaking of cats... Wasn't I supposed to summon Loke for something?
"Hey! Who said you could sit here? " The One and only Sting yelled out.
"There's no other spot open. Now shut up. You're giving me a headache. "
"Tch. Whatever. " He then looked at the window, angrily.
"Why don't you take off your hood. We already met." Rouge said calmly.
"True true. Alright. "
"What? We met before? Who is she Rouge? "
"Seriously? What kind of dragon slayer are you?" I said.
"Excuse me? " He then got up.
"You heard me. Can't you recognize my scent?" I also got up. He was in a fighting stance. Ready to go anytime.
"Sit down both of you. We don't need you two slayers blowing up the place."
We both sit down grudgingly, crossed our arms and looked the opposite way.
"Now Lucy, why don't you show your face and tell us how your a dragon slayer like us. " Rouge calm said, more like ordered.
I slipped of my hood and looked towards Rouge.
"I knew you'd find out eventually. Just don't tell anyone, alright? "
"Got it."
"Woah! Wait wait wait. You're a dragon slayer like us? How? " Sting practically yelled.
"Shut up. You idiot! " I then hit his head leaving a bump. "I'll tell you how if you keep quiet."
"Ow!! Alright alright. Now tell us!! "
I then explain how I was trained by a dragon for about a year or so. Which led to the part about Aquarian leaving and left behind a note with a cloak. Oh yeah! She left a surprise with Loke for me! I wonder what it is...
"Ohh. Thats why you smell like water. With vanilla and strawberries. What a weird combination."
"Tch. Whatever. you have a weird smell too, Sting."
"I agree." Rouge said.
Sting was about to say something until the train started moving. All three of us instantly got sick. Sting started laughing at me until he almost barfed and thats when I started laughing at him. Well until I almost puked also. An hour later the train started to stop in Hargeon. The speaker said we were only making a quick stop then we will head to Magnolia. Once we all recovered Sting faced me with a smirk on his face.
"Well Blondie, didn't think you would get motion sick so fast."
"Yeah me neither, but oh well. Why are you guys heading to Magnolia?"
"We need to talk to your master about a rematch against Natsu and Gajeel."
"Really? You sure you guys can stand to lose again?"
"Hey! We have been training really hard these past few months."
"Okay, whatever you say."
"Anyways. Are you going to summon that playboy or what?"
"Oh yeah. I wonder what the surprise is."
"We want to know also. Now hurry up.
"Okay, okay. Hold on." I got Loke's key and summoned him. a gold light appeared and when it disappeared, Loke was there standing. He was holding something in his arms. More like cradling it.
"I was wondering when you were going to call me, princess."
"Sorry I forgot. Now what's the surprise!"
"Have a look for yourself." He showed me what he was cradling. My eyes went big from surprise and happiness.
"An exceed!" I whispered
"Yes, an exceed. You may name her whatever you want. Take good care of her."
"She is so cute! Of course I will take good care of her! You may go if want."
"I know you will. I will be going because I do have a very important date tonight."
"Of course you do. Anyways bye!"
With a poof he left. I then look closely at the exceed. She closely resembles to a white tiger. Actually she looks like a baby white tiger. White fur with black stripes. The train then decided to start moving again. Okay I can do this. Just one more hour.
When we got to Magnolia, My exceed woke up. We all then got out of the train and started heading to the guild. I then held up the exceed and face her.
"Hi little exceed. I'm Lucy Heartfilia. I'm your new friend."
"Hi. I look forward to be your friend."
"I'm glad. Now what should we name you?"
"Whatever you like."
"Guys help me name her."
"Fine. how about Tigger?" Instantly me and my exceed yelled out no.
"How about Tay?" Rouge suggested. I looked at my exceed and she thought about but said no.
"Oh! I know! How about Talia?" I suggested.
"Yes! I love it. "
"Blondie we are here." I look up and see the guild building in front of me. I put on my hood and then looked at Talia.
"Alright. Ready to meet my family?"
"Yes. Is there any other exceeds?"
"Yep. Three of them."
"Well what are we waiting for then?"
"Okay. Let's go!" I then kick open the doors, making everyone stop what they were doing and look our way. Then I heard the two dragon slayers behind me yell.
"Hey. Can we get something to eat?"
"Yeah that train wiped us out."
"Can I also get food?" I then take off my hood. "It's been awhile since I had your cooking, Mira."
Once everyone saw my face they looked surprised, which then turned to shocked, then to happiness. All of a sudden I was being hugged b every member in the guild.
"LUCY!!! YOU ARE FINALLY BACK!!!!! WE MISSED YOU!!" They all yelled.
"Yep. I'm finally back. Look who I brought with me." I motion Talia to come out of my cloak and look at everyone. She only pokes her head out. I guess she is a shy little cat. That's okay she'll warm up to them in no time.
"Awe! She's so cute!"
"Her name is Talia. She is a little shy." Suddenly the doors bust open again. The erson standing there was the one and only.
"Natsu.."

HI hi. I realized I am a week late. I made this chapter extra long so I hope you forgive me. This chapter was 2189 words long without this author note.
I am surprised I actually wrote that much.
I didn't know where to stop it so I kept going. I probably would've kept going, but I thought the chapter would've been too long.
Well I shall try to update again this Saturday. But no promises because as you tell I'm terrible keeping schedule.
SO when do you start school or have you already started? I start on Wednesday. I don't want to go to school...
OH well... See ya on Saturday.
I don't own Fairy Tail. Hiro Mashima does.
Adios!
