Luna POV:

I stare at the place where Arcadios once was, his soft smile as he helped us to safety...

"No..." I say over and over again.

"Colonel Arcadios!" Yukino yells with tears dripping down her face.

"That's what I thought was supposed to happen, lava kills people." Uosuke says wiping sweat from his own head. "What a relief, I thought I was killing him wrong."

I push myself up still keeping my eyes on where Arcadios was a minute ago, I turn my head to look at my legs and notice how badly burnt they are. Pieces of my feet are blistered and the skin is a deep red colour, the pain is unbearable but I know that I have to stand because Lucy and Yukino don't have their keys so they can't fight. I use my arms to heave my body so I'm able to stand up, my legs feel like they won't work so I summon my dragon wings. Even though they are damaged they still work, I flap them slightly to relieve the pressure of my legs when I hear something coming from the lava.

"It's a photo finish..." Someone says. "Though perhaps not...one that I would want anyone to see."

The lava moves and then a large clock thing appears, as my eyes adjust to the shape I recognise it as one of Lucy's spirits but I can't remember which one.

"Horologium?!" Lucy yells looking at the spirit as I notice something, inside his body is Colonel Arcadios!

"With this large male I seemed to have gained some weight." Horologium says and begins to climb out of the lava.

"How can you even be here?" Lucy asked.

"Because I can pass through my gate at will, sorry it took so long." Another voice says, I pivot my body and see another one of Lucy's spirits but this one I recognise.

"Loke!" I yell smiling at him, I look at the bracelet that's still on my wrist and smile. They really care about Lucy.

"Now we're back Lucy your spirits are with you again." Loke tosses a brown pouch which I recognise as Lucy's key holder, he also tosses some keys at Yukino too. "We didn't forget about your spirits Yukino."

Yukino holds the keys in her hand, she smiles softly and then pulls the keys to her face holding them close.

"Thank you so much, I'm so sorry Pisces, Libra..." Yukino says holding the keys.

"Now you can use your magic!" Carla cries happily.

I smile but then feel my magic energy fading quickly, my wings give out and I fall. Luckily Happy comes over and grabs me before I hit the ground too hard, he then lowers me down slowly so I don't hurt my feet and legs anymore.

"Thanks Happy." I say smiling as I take deep breaths.

"Rest up Luna, we'll take care of this." Lucy says smiling at me.

"Lucy." Loke says turning to face her.

"Yeah!" Lucy replies making her hand into a fist.

"Now that we have all twelve zodiac keys together, it's time for our counter attack!" Loke says and Lucy and Yukino stand by his side.

I lean back against the stone wall with Happy and Carla next to me, Uosuke looks at them and tilts his head to the side.

"Tai?..." He says, what's up with that? Horologium vanishes and leaves Arcadios with me and the exceeds, he's worse off than me but he's still breathing which is a very good sign.

"He's breathing, thanks to Horologium he survived which I'm surprised he did." I say to them.

"Let's start the counter attack!" Loke yells.

"Yeah!" Lucy yells smiling, her face full of determination.

"Let me help too! Open Gate Of The Twin Fish! Pisces!" She yells and I hear Happy yell out happily.

"Fish!" Happy yells.

"Fish!" Uosuke yells with drool dripping from his mouth....weird.

Lucy looks at the spirits confused, I was expecting to see the same spirits from the games but the spirits turn into a young man and a woman. I stare at them confused but then notice each of them have fish like things on them like scales, and the boy is holding a spear which has the symbol of Pisces on the top of it.

"We were called in this form mama." The boy says glaring at Uosuke.

"Yes! That means we were called to eliminate the enemy my son!" The woman asks and then I remember. Pisces is the constellation of the mother and son!

Loke looks at the Pisces mother and blushes, he looks her up and down then whistles.

"She hasn't changed a bit, who knew that someone as hot as her would have a son." He says and then wolf whistles at her.

"Loke this really isn't the time for this..." I say panting, black spots are beginning to appear in my vision and I know the pain is going to cause me to pass out soon. I thought I had a high pain threshold after all those years training with dad, but this is nothing like I've ever felt before. I kinda wish I was in Arcadios's place because he's still passed out, and I'm beginning to wish I was...

"Pisces Go!" Yukino yells at them and they burst into action.

Uosuke pulls his hands out and gives them a twist. "Earth Effect Gravity Belt!" He cries but Yukino was one step ahead of him.

"Open Gate Of The Scales! Libra!" She cries out, Libra appears and instantly changes the gravity so it's back to normal.

"TAIIII?!" Uosuke yells shocked.

Pisces son and Pisces mother begin to send water based attacks at Uosuke, as he cries out in panic.

"You guys!! Tai!!" He yells and then raises his hands high above his head. "Earth Effect! Whirlpool Belt!" He cries sending the water swirling around the small space we're in. "Fish like you should be thrown back into the sea!!! Taiiii!"

As the water rushes over the Pisces mother and Pisces son they both turn back into the large fish that I saw in the games, the water rushes over to Arcadios and me so I make sure to grab onto his body so he doesn't drown. The water feels amazing on my burnt skin, but is soon replaced with stinging. My raw flesh screams out as the water touches it, and it takes everything inside me not to scream out.

"Oh no! Pisces has a weakness of water!" Yukino yells.

"But aren't they fish?" Lucy asks and then it's like a light bulb goes off in her head, she pulls a golden key from her belt and smiles. "If we've got water then! Open Gate Of The Water Barer! Aquarius!"

Aquarius doesn't look happy to be called but even so she listens to what Lucy tells her, I smile and then watch as Aquarius sends her strongest water attack at Uosuke sending him crashing through the wall.

"Nice one!" I yell as the water level lowers, she smiles over at me and then glares at Lucy.

"Don't make a habit of this brat." She says to Lucy and then vanishes in a cloud of gold dust.

"Look the wall opened up." Yukino says closing both gates of her celestial spirits.

"Tell me what's out there, I can't move with these legs." I say laughing slightly trying to make light of the situation.

"We'll help you Luna." Carla says smiling at me.

"Aye sir!" Happy yells.

Carla goes on one side of me and happy on the other, each of them grab me and lift me up slowly making sure to be careful of my legs. Loke comes over and picks up Arcadios lifting him onto his back, we then move carefully between the rubble with Happy and Carla making sure I'm ok.

"Once my legs start working again..." I start and then notice everyone else. "Hey I'm glad you're all ok!"

"What on earth happened to you?!" Twilight asks from her position next to Pantherlilly.

"Some Lava, but I'll be ok. Once everything stops spinning anyway, and Wendy don't even think about it. Save your energy because I'm guessing you had to fight alone?" I say looking at the tired girl.

"Put Luna on my back Happy, Carla." Natsu instructs.

They lift me on his back carefully, he looks at my legs and then carefully wraps them around his waist so that I stay on. I wrap my arms around his neck and then rest my head on his scarf inhaling the deep smoky scent, I close my eyes for a second and then feel Natsu move. He puts his foot onto the guy I'm assuming he was fighting and he pushes it down hard, I can see the turn of his face and I know he's grinning.

"Now, as punishment for all of this you're going to tell us where the exit is." He asks in a menacing voice.

After they tell us the direction for us to walk we begin to walk, we walk for about fifteen minutes in the direction they told us. Well when I say walk I mean Natsu's walking while I'm being carried, even though I told Wendy not to heal me she still insisted on tearing her dress to make some little bandages on the soles of my feet where the worst burns were.

"Do you think it's really this way?" Natsu asks as we enter what looks like a cavern with large pillars of stones.

"Also how did Loke get here?" Mirajane asks.

"I jumped in." He says smiling.

Yukino looks at Arcadios and then sighs.

"Is Colonel Arcadios ok?" She asks looking at his many injuries.

"I suppose he's as alright as he can be, I mean he was standing in Lava for a good couple of minutes getting the three of us out." I say from Natsu's back.

"He got you out of the lava too?" Natsu asks me.

"Yeah, I was trying to get Lucy and Yukino out of the lava and he pushed them up and then me. Once they were out of the lava he gave me a push, he was careful of my legs too even though he was standing in lava himself." I say and Natsu smiles.

"He's in my good books then, once we're out we're getting both of you some help." He says and I feel a slight blush dust my cheeks.

"I think that's it's the stone he's wearing that's kept him alive until now, it's a very strong protection amulet and it keeps the wearer safe from all different types of things that can harm them." Ykino explains.

"That's like the dragon Zirconis, he was the jade dragon." Wendy says thinking back to our encounter with the pervy dragon.

"And the princess is named Hisui which also means jade." Yukino says placing a hand on her chin in thought.

"He also told us to speak with the princess when we get out, I don't know why though." Lucy says.

"You said that he didn't know if Eclipse was the right thing to do, strange." Carla says while Happy squeals at a bug that appears from inside a skull.

"Why are we going to see the princess?! She was the one that put us here in the first place!" Natsu yells as I yelp in pain as he touches my burns. "Sorry Luna."

"Anyway, we need to get out of here. Those of us fighting in the games need time to relax." Loke says.

"Hey!" Pantherlilly says pointing. "Over there!"

We look over and see a huge set of doors, I can tell Natsu wants to get running over there but he's scared of hurting me.

"Mira, mind if I go on your back? Natsu wants to get running." I say and she laughs at me.

"Sure." Natsu helps me get onto Mirajane's back and then looks at the door.

"Leave it to me!" He yells running towards the door.

"So immature." I whisper to Mirajane as she tries not to laugh.

"Fire Dragon!" He begins to yell but then the door bursts open.

Natsu falls forward rolling around on the ground, we all look at the door and see a black silhouette. Natsu rolls towards the figure and then looks up at the figure, they are dressed in a dark cloack which is covering their face only exposing their feet and from the lips to the chin.

"Wait, I know you." I say looking over at the figure. "We met when I was coming back to the stadium after my hand had all those scales on them." I say and then close my mouth, because she also told me to use my dragon force.

"I'm sorry..." The figure says and my eyes go wide. "Could...you help me?...."

"That voice..." Yukino says in shock.

"You're..." Loke says and then we all gasp.

The figure pulls down their hood to reveal long blonde hair and chocolate brown eyes, I'm surprised that Mirajane hasn't dropped me as we realise who the person really is.

"LUCY?!" We all yell in shock, this is going to be more complicated than we first thought...
