Lucy bounced excitedly on her feet as she and the others walked into the hotel. She huffed impatiently while Natsu, Gray, and Happy dropped their belongings in their room. They joined the three girls and the exceed in theirs.

The blond stared intensely at the box the key was in. She was over ecstatic to meet a new spirit. A spirit that no one else had met.

"Alright, we're all here. Go ahead and summon them." Erza said as Gray closed the door.

She looked over at her friends, nodding excitedly. She opened the box, gently lifting the key from the velvet padding and holding it in front of her.

"O' spirit, answer my call and pass through the gate. Gate of the Tide, i open thee! Come fourth into my world."

A doorbell chimed loudly and the air around the key glowed with blue mist. Out of the mist stepped a teenager.

He looked around seventeen years of age with windblown black hair and a crooked troublemaker smile. His eyes were the same shifting sea green the color of his key, but they looked even more vibrant. A blue hoodie, shorts, and sandles adorned his body.

He fixed his mesmerizing gaze on Lucy and raised a hand to give an awkward, "Hi."

Lucy's smiled brightened, if it was even possible, "Hi!"

"I want to make a contract with you, if that's ok?"

The spirits smile became less awkward and his shoulders relaxed, "Why wouldn't I be?"

"What days are you available? And what situations can I summon you in?"

He tilted his head as if thinking, and bit his bottom lip, "I'm available every day but Monday. And you can summon me in any situation you want. I can't promise that I will be of use, but I can try."

Lucy clasped her hands happily, "Do you want me to call you Tide, or do you go by something else?"

"You can call me Percy." He replied.

Lucy held out a hand to shake his, "Lucy. And this is my team. Natsu is the pink haired one, Gray the black haired guy, Erza is the red head, Wendy is the bluenette, Happy is the blue cat and Charla is the white cat."

He raised his hand to them with a soft smile, "Nice to meet you guys."

Erza stepped forward and firmly took Percy's hand to shake, "Its nice to meet someone I will work with in the future."

The sea spirit nodded, "Likewise."

Happy spouted wings and flew around Percy's head, "You don't look like the rest of the spirits. Your too normal!"

"Don't insult him you stupid cat!" Lucy exclaimed while grabbing the cats cheek in anger. Percy laughed at their interactions.

"It's alright Lucy. I do agree that I am one of the more human looking spirits. But of course, like all other spirits I can change my form. It all depends on what my contractor wants to see out of me."

Lucy looked over at him, "Have you had to change to a different form in the past?"

"No. Your my first contractor. Though I could change my form if you so desired. I also think I have a special move that's special to my key set and that is called the 'Divine State.' I don't know anything else about it because I've never had to use it."

Excitement filled Lucy again,"Do you know how to activate it?"

He shook his head, "Like I said, I've never had to use it. Neither has anyone else in my key-set. Its something that the King told us we could do. If you want more information on it, it would be best to call on Crux. Or, someone else in my set might know."

Lucy deflated, but brightened up a second later. It was only a minor disappointment. And she had more she wanted to ask the spirit before she had to close the gate.

"Do you know where the other keys in your set are?"

The sea spirit once again contemplated, "Two have been unclaimed. They lay in wait for a worthy mage to find them. One belongs to a Celestial Spirit Mage that is not located in Fiore, as far as I can tell. And one is being held as a gift for someone."

"Could you tell me the exact location?"

"No. But I could ask them and see if they are willing to let me guide you to them."

Lucy clapped her hands again, "Thank you!"

Her excitement was nearly palpable in the air, and she could barely hold a squeal in. Adrenaline was pumping through her system despite how long of a day it had been.

Percy gave her another soft smile, "I should go now. Ill see you later Lucy. Don't be afraid to summon me in a fight!"

He disappeared in a whisper of blue mist.

"He seems nice," Gray commented as Lucy smiled and danced around the room, "Very down to earth, and not really that weird like the rest of your keys."

"I can't wait to see and test his abilities! I also can't wait to bond with him some more." She sang happily.

Erza smiled at her friend and spoke up, "Well, we can do that tomorrow. In the mean time, we should all get some sleep. We have to head back to Magnolia tomorrow, and we've had a long day."

Natsu, Gray, and Happy bid the girls goodnight as they headed out of the room. Lucy stowed the new key with all of the others, its sea green color standing out against the silver and gold of the others.

She said goodnight to the three other girls and slipped under the covers of her bed. She was sharing with the Erza, but they never had any trouble when they shared them. Sleep fell over her like a light blanket and her dreams were filled with the prospect of a new adventure.

Aight. Im just realizing how much I say that.

Anyways, this story is going to have irregular updates. I know where I want to go, but I also have to read and rewatch fairy tail for what I want to do. Not to mention that I have school and home responsibilities. I will try to update as much as I can. Thank you so much for being patient with me.

Hope that you enjoyed the chapter. Tell me in a review.
