Lucy stretched languidly, relaxing both body and mind.
Suddenly, she caught sight of two familiar figures splashing around in the shallow water ahead.
"Aquarius? And Virgo?"
Lucy's eyes widened in surprise.
Aquarius wore a swimsuit, her face full of irritation as she flicked her tail and slapped the water's surface.
Virgo, meanwhile, was crouched at the bottom of the pool, diligently picking at the tiles.
Lucy walked over and couldn't help but complain.
"Hey, you two sneaked out of the Spirit World to play in the water. Isn't that abandoning your posts without permission?"
Hearing Lucy's voice, Aquarius slowly turned around.
Veins bulged on her forehead, and her gaze was fierce and sharp.
"Huh? What nonsense are you spouting, little brat?"
Aquarius sneered and raised the water bottle in her hand at Lucy.
"You dare interrupt my vacation? Go die!"
Boom!
A violent torrent burst from the bottle and slammed hard into Lucy's lower abdomen.
"Eekkkk!"
Lucy let out a scream and was instantly blasted into the air by the stream.
She drifted helplessly along the winding waterway, completely out of control.
Erza and Mirajane stood where they were, calmly watching the scene unfold.
"Oh my, Lucy got washed away."
Mirajane tilted her head with a gentle smile, her tone relaxed.
Erza nodded slightly and spoke calmly.
"It's fine. This is also a small amusement for a day off. It'll be good exercise for her coordination."
Lucy was battered along by the current until, with a splash, she crashed into a secluded pool.
"Cough, cough... Aquarius really went too far..."
She climbed out of the water miserably and wiped the droplets from her face.
"Um... Lucy from Fairy Tail."
A timid voice sounded beside her.
Lucy turned and saw Flare Corona from Raven Tail standing by the pool.
