'Love makes us stronger' she still remembered when he said that. It was the first time when she knew that he was her stronger celestial spirit. Her heart fluttered gently when he said that. It almost felt like their bond was a lot greater than anything else.

She looked down at her keys. They felt light and she hated it. She broke of the contract with him. He had to be punished, due to the mission she lost, she lost her home, she didn't have any money for food. She slept on a hard bench on the guild. She nearly died due to his incompetence.

The four sat on a train, Natsu rested his head on Lucy's lap as she rubbed his head softly, her fingers combing his pink hair. She looked up to Gray as he bought something from the trolley and handed it to Lucy. It was a simple cheese burger. She thanked him and dug into it, like it was her last meal. She had tomato sauce on her face. Loke reached forward and wiped the dirt away from her face with his thumb. Lucy blushed as he licked his thumb and acted like nothing happened. Natsu handed her a napkin from the trolley and she wiped her face properly.

They soon arrived at the town, Lucy and Gray took to helping Natsu off of the train and onto the platform. Natsu didn't realise that his arm around Lucy was actually groping her. Loke turned to see her blush and how red she was and he pushed Lucy away and took her side to help Natsu. Lucy pouted and walked ahead and found the male they were looking for.

He was called Matt and was robbing guilds. Lucy pulled out her whip and rushed to the guy. She managed to whip him in the back and he turned to her. He walked over to her and grabbed her by the neck. He was so fast. He pulled her down to the ground and she wheezed in pain. Tears stung her eyes, refusing to let them fall. Her hand fell to her side where she felt her keys. She pulled out the first key and felt the top. It was Aquarius. She felt the next one, Aries. That would work.

"Open," she coughed and wheezed as his grip tightened around her throat. He aimed directly for her air pipes and not the rest of her neck, "Gate of the ram," she hissed. She couldn't finish. Her heart was pounding, her lungs were beginning to burn. She needed to finish her command. She needed to call Aries. "Air," the man laughed and tightened his grip. "Ees,"

It didn't work. It was too loose and broken. She heard footsteps, they were coming closer, "Get off Lucy," it was Loke. The weight on her neck died down and she rolled to her side coughing, spluttering and wheezing to regain some oxygen. The burning in her lungs died down but her throat felt raw. She rubbed softly and felt a cold hand pressed it against it. It was Gray. He helped her to her feet and she hid her face in his side. He kissed her cheek and watched as Loke, who was just a burning flame by now was pummelling the guild robber. Matt was soon handcuffed and taken away. Loke rushed over to Lucy but Aries appeared and was bowing her head.

"I'm so sorry. Lady Lucy," she wept, "I didn't hear your command properly. I am so sorry," Lucy patted her pink curly hair. Loke smiled. Their master was so kind. If that had been Karen, she would have punished Aries, for not aiding her. She would have attacked and hit and hurt Aries till she dematerialised.

Loke walked over to Aries and put a hand around her and rubbed her side softly. Lucy put her hand in her pocket and felt Loke's key. She smiled softly, stroking the head of the key. She put it with the rest of her keys and followed after Gray.

...

So this is done. It was short. Super short, but it's finally done. Yeah!
