Important author's note: The definitions are very important because I want readers to know how I will define the creatures in the story. Example, a vampire. I don't mean any 'Twilight' (no offense to Twilight fans) shit so read my definition lol. Some of the characters I will be including in the story will be: Lucy, Natsu, Erza, Gray, Wendy, Juvia, Mirijane, Levy, Gajeel, Cana, Laxus, and Mavis. I will have other characters but I'm pretty sure those will be the only Fairy Tail members in the story. After reading the plot try to guess which character is going to be which creature. Example/hint/preview: Lucy=Elf. OHHHH ALSO: NO FAIRY TAIL CHARACTERS WILL ACTUALLY BE FAIRYS IN THE STORY! You'll see why. Anyways, a little preview to hook you into the story:

Prologue:

"Mama? Where did the fairies go?"

Layla Heartfilia looked over at her three year old daughter in surprise. What did she know about the fairies?

"Why d-do you ask dear?" Lucy hops off her bed and runs up and hugs her mother's leg, Layla looks down at her wondering how she ever grew so fast.

"I see them in my dreams. I chase after them but I can never catch them. Where did they go?"

Where did they go, where did they go, where did they go? There was a million ways to answer that question but none suited how Layla wanted to tell Lucy.

She could say, 'They wanted to remain a mystery forever.'

Or, 'They went on their own adventure.'

Or even, 'They're waiting for the right time to come out.'

Any of these would suit the situation but it wasn't the right time. It was too dangerous, too risky, too soon.

So instead she looked down at the blond toddler with fair skin and pointed ears. Then said, "They want you to find them, so promise me you'll find them someday okay?"

Young Lucy nodded excitedly, she always wanted to go on an adventure. "I'll go look now!"

"No." Lucy stopped and turned around to look at her mother. "W-why not?"

"Because you must wait until you're older, until you have the things you need in order to search for them."

"What do I need so badly to not start searching now?"

"Trust worthy friends, money, resources, and an idea of where to look."

"Willy and Erica are trust worthy friends! I'll go get them now!"

Layla's heart raced as Lucy started to skip away. "N-NO!"

Lucy's eyes widened as she heard the scream from her mother. Her mother had never screamed like that, so filled with fear, never.

"M-mama?" Lucy's eyes widened with tears, at such a young age all she knew was her mother was scared. Her mother, the only one who protected her was scared, which meant Lucy should definitely be terrified.

Layla rapped her bruised arms around Lucy. Tears started to run down both of their cheeks. "I told you too much. I told you too much." Layla cried.

"I won't tell anyone if you want. So mama please don't cry!"

Mama please don't cry.

Don't cry, don't cry.

You'll scare the fairies.
