She smiled when discovered her teammates alive and well, but then she missed Luca.<br/><br/><strong>"Ano... Where's Luca-san?"</strong><br/><br/>The two would finally notice her. They would notice, also, that she was the most unfortunate of them. Alice kept limping and holding her shoulder. There was a lot of bruises, her forehead was still stained with blood. Her clothes were also dirty and thorn. Without her little cap and with one of her pretty ponytails undone, she looked like a survivor of a war.<br/><br/>She looked at the beams of light. No one was lit anymore, and then she knew everyone did their job.<strong>"Ah, he did it,"</strong>she smiled,<strong>"probably coming here... we... we should wait..."</strong><br/><br/>Alice sat on the floor, resting against a wall, and began to tie up her ponytail again, strangely quiet. Her body was aching, there was still a powerful enemy to defeat and the world was yet to be saved, but she was in a numbing happiness. Alice was grateful to see that everyone persevered and endured their own trials. And, mainly, Alice could finally prove to herself she was as good as anyone else in Fairy Tail. It didn't matter how powerful or skillful you were, if you didn't have a strong will, you couldn't earn a single victory. Alice proved that today.
