The Viking of Fairy Tail

Chapter 19

It was a few days after the Laxus incident and everyone had cooled down. Gajeel was carrying Aoife on his back, those two became fast friends. As they were walking around the festivities they came upon the rest of Team Natsu, and Aoife smiled and waved.

May you please translate?

"Yea, sure Phe."

Where are you guys headed?

"She wants to know where you guys are headed."

"Oh, we were just about to follow Lucy, she's going to compete in Miss Fairy Tail." Gray said.

Crap! Gajeel I need to get there! I forgot I entered!

"Haha, we gotta jet. She forgot she entered already."

"You guys gotta get goin then. They're about to start."

Onward my Iron friend.

"Yea, okay Phe." The two took off, and Gray laughed after them. Aoife had him wrapped around her finger.

They had arrived just in time for the Miss Fairy Tail contest to start, and Bisca had just gone.

"LETS HEAR IT FOR ENTRY NUMBER SEVEN! SHE MAY BE SMALL BUT SHE'S POWERFUL, THE STORM GODDESS! AOIFE!" Aoife walked out on stage wearing a yellow one piece with white and blue flowers.

She hefted up her hammer and clouds started circling in front of her. They completely blocked their view of her until she blew the clouds away in a heart shaped ring to reveal a beautiful yellow dress.

But when she went back stage she saw Evergreen.

Awe, I didn't know you were competing. I don't have a chance now!

She joked through sign after tapping her on the shoulder. Evergreen turned looking shocked and sad.

Ever, what's wrong?

She reached out a hand before Evergreen pulled down her glasses and tried to freeze her in stone. Before she fully froze she ran out from behind the curtain.

"RUN PL-" Before she could finish she completely froze, reaching out. Everyone gasped, Evergreen walked beside her and whispered.

"I'm sorry."

"AOIFE!" Lucy called for her. Evergreen turned to Lucy and pulled down her glasses. Before Lucy could do anything, she was frozen in stone as well. Everyone was rioting and ran out the door, except for Fairy Tail. The Master stepped forward.

"RETURN THEM TO NORMAL THIS INSTANT." Laxus appeared and commented on the lack of people in their seats. Bixlow carefully moved Aoife over to Lucy, and Makarov yelled at them, but lightning appeared over Lucy and Aoife's head's. They all winced seeing the tear that was frozen on her cheek. It struck the area behind them, but it was a clear threat what would happen if they were to put a toe out of line.

Everyone in the guild ran out the doors, and Makarov tried to follow to fight with them. But he was trapped by runes. Anyone over 80 and stone statues can't cross.

It had been awhile, and Natsu and Gajeel had just woken up Erza. She rushed over to Aoife's bag.

"Aoife has something that might help, but it'll only work for her."

"What is it child?"

"The canister she used to bring herself back to life. She was almost dead and directed Lucy on how to use it. She explained to me how she did it, incase she ever needed someone to do it again. She used the excess power from the Ethernano, there was so much it could've killed her. She has a lot of these." As she was explaining, she went and used the canister. As soon as it started glowing she ran for cover and warned everyone to get down. A massive burst of golden light came from her now armor covered torso. She hit the ground with an oomph. Erza yelled to the others that she was gonna go fight, and Gajeel helped her up.

Gaj? What happened? Oh gods! The girls we gotta help them! I'm gonna kick that lightning douche in the balls!

Gajeel fell over laughing, and when the others asked him what she said, just thinking about it made him laugh so hard he couldn't breathe. But Aoife had to sit down for a minute. The stone spell was too close to a sleeping spell. Gajeel and the others picked up something was wrong pretty quick.

"Hey Phe? What's wrong?"

That stone spell was too close to a sleeping spell, I need a minute. Ask them they'll explain.

"She says that you guys will know what she's talking about but she said it was too close to a sleeping spell and she needs a minute."

Close your eyes

"She says to, close our eyes?" The Master, Happy, and Natsu ran and hid behind a table. Gajeel was confused but did the same. A bright light shone through the guild, and when it faded Aoife stood in a flowing white dress. Her hair was braided back warrior style, and her hammer had increased in size tenfold. It looked like, the horn Erza brought home? Her eyes were a shimmering gold, and there were the ghost of four wings the same shade of gold sprouting from her back. Just after she did that, the other girls awoke. She placed down her hammer, and walked towards them. Cana spoke up.

"Woah, Aoife. What caused you to go Warrior Angel? You haven't done that since-"

"Yeah, Laxus is being a dick, and I'm out for blood." The transformation helped her heal, but it took more magic energy than she usually had. She helped explain what was happening to the girls. But everything cut short when a giant red skull appeared from the runes.

"Can you hear me, old man? The rest of you better listen up too. Looks like one of the rules has gone out the window, that's fine I'll just add a new one. In other words, since I would hate to end the battle of Fairy Tail early, I've decided to activate The Thunder Palace. You have one hour and ten minutes. If you think you can win, you'd better get moving, unless you're ready to hand the guild over to me now Master." The skull dissipated in a fit of mechanical laughter. Aoife was shaking in silent anger, ooh she was pissed. The Master collapsed, and Mira went to get his medicine. But on her way back she looked outside and saw the lacrima floating in the air.

"Look outside you guys!" When they got to the roof, Aoife thought the markings on the lacrima looked familiar, but she recognized it a second too late because Bisca had just shot one.

"NO!" She practically flew across the roof and wrapped her arms around Bisca just in time to channel the lightning. She screamed out in pain and they both hit their knees. Bisca caught her.

"What was that hun? Are you ok?"

"It was body link magic, and the lightning in one of those lacrima is strong enough to kill anyone who isn't a lightning mage. I can take it, but it hurts when you can't prepare yourself for it"
