Isolation

12 years in the past:

"Momma! Momma, wake up!" A small blonde haired child cried to a woman in an elegant dress sprawled almost dead on the floor. The child spilled countless tears as their attacker draped in black robes neared her. "Come here, child. I can protect you", the man chuckled stretching out his hand. "No! You hurt my momma!" The girl yelled at the top of her lungs. The man shook in fury. He had already wasted too much time trying to get the women out of the way. He lunged forward almost grasping her when a bright light filled the room.

The man was thrown out the window of the dark room by a tall figure with a goat's head and black shades. "C-Capricorn", the woman on the floor struggled to push herself up. The child ran to her mother hugging her in tears. "Lucy... We don't have much time. Listen child, you shall leave with Capricorn. He will protect you and keep you from harm's way. Take these keys. You don't understand now, but you will one day", the woman spoke quickly shoving a ring with a lot of gold and silver keys in her hands.

"No momma! I want to stay with you!" Lucy cried holding onto the sleeve of her dress. The woman shook her head her own tears slipping down her cheeks. She kissed Lucy's forehead and closed her eyes beginning to recite a spell. A barrier spell, but just as she was about to finish, the barrier had been shattered. "Mistress Layla, I'll take Lady Lucy!" He said holding Lucy in his arms who began to thrash wildly. "Protect her at all cost", Layla yelled. The hooded man, only smirked as he grabbed a long dagger stabbing through Layla's heart. "Momma! Noooo!" Lucy yelled as Capricorn rushed out the doors and teleported them into a car he drove off.

Lucy was traumatized and tears spilled down like waterfalls, but cries could not pass her lips from utter horror. They arrived at a small cottage and Capricorn made haste to get to Lucy's side. He grabbed her by the shoulder and whispered an enchantment. "Lucy, by the time I recite this spell, you will only bear a memory of your mother peacefully passing away. She was ill from disease and her body could no longer fight it. You will remember staying in the care of one of the maids, and nothing more. The keys were a gift from your mother and only when you are twelve shall you unconsciously know their purpose and how to use them. Sleep Mistress Lucy! Sleep", he said as Lucy slowly closed her eyes

Present:

Lucy sighed heavily as her hair was tied elegantly with a string of pearls while the maids curled her hair. She wore a princess style gown in red that hugged the sides of her shoulders. Her face had been meticulously been treated with makeup of the highest quality. She looked at her reflection from her curled blonde hair to her chocolate colored eyes. Misery. Complete utter misery and loneliness. "I'd like a few moments to myself if you don't mind", she muttered kindly to her maids who bowed and exited. A light rose from the floor to reveal Capricorn right at her side. "12 years passed, Capricorn. Yet I still do not receive a full explanation of my mother's gift", Lucy said not making eye contact with him.

"Mistress Lucy, I have a feeling you know", he said simply. "Capricorn, I have faith that you are not just a figment of my imagination as my father thinks you are. I'm leaving today for Fairy Academy. He thinks my mother's death has made me crazy and that being all these years on my own have made me feel lonely to the point I created 'friends'", she began to say standing to hold his hands. "Capricorn, tell me you're real, and that I'm not just imagining you and other spirits", Lucy begged with shaky eyes. "Hime, have faith that we are in fact real and you will be much more safe" , a feminine voice interjected. Lucy turned to a young woman of short pink hair in a maid's outfit who bowed.

Lucy finally smiled softly. "Virgo, your words give me strength", she said taking a quick breath before walking to the door hearing them disappear. She stepped down the staircase resigned to see what kind of future awaited her. She had heard so many things about Fairy Academy. A highly prestigious academy indeed, but said to be very competitive and cause trouble at times. She had to admit she was excited, but she still couldn't feel at ease after her entire life revolves around being alone. Her father awaited her at the entrance with a light smile. "Lucy, I wish you luck my child. I'm sure this will cure you", he said simply and inconsiderately.

He went to hug her only for Lucy to push his hands away. "I'm disappointed that you think I've gone crazy. If only...mother hadn't died, she would have surely believed me", she said bowing her head to keep from crying. Her father stayed silent and almost guilty. She neared the door to her limo and just before she got on she shredded her dress. "What are you doing?!" Judo, her father, yelled in shock. "I am no longer under your protection. If I'm going to this academy, l will be my own person. I don't need jewels or fancy dresses or even makeup", she said while ripping her pearl accessories off. Under her dress was her school uniform. A short sleeved white shirt with a blue cardigan on top and a short gray skirt to her thighs. She had on a pair of low cut black boots to finish her look.

"Goodbye, dad", she said giving up referring to him as 'father', before she got on the limo and drove off. She looked back to see her father picking up what remained of her dress. She began to sob loudly; hands at her face tears spilling limply on her legs. She didn't even hear when Aquarius appeared before her taking her in her arms. She had long blue straight hair to her hips and was a mermaid like spirit. Usually, Aquarius was mean and grouchy, but when it came to seeing Lucy in pain or broken, she was there to comfort her solitude. Lucy hugged her tightly crying like she hadn't cried in twelve years.

~~xXXx~~

As they arrived to the campus, Lucy held onto the key's belonging to her mother tightly feeling a sensation of familiarity. The academy was extremely large and already Lucy could see it was very lively and loud seeing how a lot of students were running around. As the door was opened by her driver, the students seem to look at her and whisper. "Lucy Heartfilia", they whispered amongst themselves. "It's that rich girl...what is she doing here? Maybe she can use m.." She would here them say, but couldn't catch their last few words as the brought her luggage. Her roommate was supposed to be a junior by the name of Levy. She walked in still being stared at like an alien.

She went to room 32 and knocked. Lucy's heart was pounding rapidly at the idea of finally talking to someone her age. The door clicked and a girl blinked confused. She was a cute short girl with blue hair to her shoulders and a red headband and glasses. "H-Hi I'm Lucy Heartfilia...y-your new roommate", she said stuttering. The girl smiled brightly. "Welcome! I've been expecting you! Make yourself at home! I'm Levy by the way", she helped her come in to the room. "I took the liberty of decorating your side of your room. I hope it's to your liking", Levy smiled showing her the pink colored side of her room.

Lucy almost felt like crying and Levy noticed. In a panic she began herself to ramble. "I'm sorry was it not to your liking! We could redecorate if you want!" Levy exclaimed. Lucy waved her hand. "No! I love it! It's just no one has ever done anything so nice like this for me. Or well I've never had a friend in my life so I'm really grateful", Lucy smiled. Levy was shocked to hear this and grabbed tightly onto Lucy's hands. "Don't worry! From now and on I'll be your friend! We can be best friends, Lu-chan", Levy exclaimed with a bright smile on her face. Lucy smiled back nodding. "Thank you, Levy-chan", Lucy laughed as Levy helped her unpack.

Lucy felt so content that someone had looked past her money and truly saw her. She walked to her first class of the day a bit self conscious. Levy had another class different from hers and had spewed so many apologies about having to leave Lucy on her own. She didn't mind wandering by herself, but she did want companionship from her first ever friend. She suddenly heard a loud crashing down the hall vastly approaching. A battle cry rang close by as a teen came crashing down the hall. He was so close to hitting Lucy that she fell backwards on her bottom. The teen had pitch black hair and was shirtless. Lucy blushed furiously as the teen groaned sitting up. He snarled in anger as another teen approached.

This one had cherry blossom colored hair and a angry expression. "Gray!" He growled. The shirtless teen responded with the same growl. "Natsu!" They took a stance of attack and rather than fighting with fist a blur of ice and fire filled the hall. Lucy's eyes widened like saucers as she saw the fire and ice coming from both teens hands. At the last moment, Gray kicked Natsu making him fall straight on Lucy. Everyone gasped in shock as Lucy groaned in pain. "Gray, you idiot, you threw Natsu on the rich Heartfilia girl. She can put you in jail!" A guy yelled as panic reached Gray.

Lucy looked down to see Natsu still on top of her staring deeply into her eyes. "Um, I don't want to bother, but you're kind of hurting me", Lucy muttered strangely embarrassed by the teen who was very attractive. Natsu came out of his daze and stood up so quickly Lucy couldn't even tell he'd ever fallen on her. He stretched out a hand to her and she took it gratefully. Unfortunately, the blow was too harsh and her legs gave out. Gray came to her leaning down. "Shoot, I'm sorry for throwing this idiot on you. I'm Gray Fullbuster", he smiled to her. "L-Lucy...why aren't you wearing clothes?" Lucy blushed. Gray jumped back up in panic running to retrieve his uniform.

She was suddenly picked up by a strong pair of arms and she squeaked in surprise. "Sorry about that. I'm Natsu Dragneel", he said giving her a toothy grin. He took her to the infirmary as she was laid down to rest. "Thank you, Natsu. I'm Lucy", she said and he continued to state at her for a few seconds. Do I look weird? She thought to herself. "I'm gonna go to the restroom real quick. We'll talk to Mira and then I'll take you to class", he grinned walking out as something dropped from his pocket. Lucy blinked in confusion as she saw a gold ring with an intricate ruby stone on it. She hummed in wonder as the inside of the precious stone looked like it was almost alive and swirling.

She stood up testing her legs and walked to pick up the ring. Natsu was just walking in as she placed the ring on her finger. It fit snugly on her finger and she admired it. Natsu was stuck in his place unable to move. She put the ring on and it didn't burn her?! He thought wildly. "H-Hey", Natsu called to her. She tried to slip the ring off but it was stuck. "It won't come off", Natsu told her. "Why?" Lucy blurted out. "Because you are the one. I was told by my father that when the right one came that ring would fit to perfection. So as long as I live I am now your protector and you my master", Natsu looked at her as his eyes became slits and his emerald eyes slightly glowed yellow before becoming normal again.

"What?! What are you saying?!" Lucy said seeing him get on one knee and bowing his head. "I can explain", a voice interrupted. Lucy looked up to see a pretty woman with long silver white hair and had big blue eyes and gentle smile. "The reason you are here is because of your mother Lucy. Your father thinks this is a regular academy, but those spirits you see are not illusions but zodiac spirits summoned from your magic keys. This is a secret magic institution. You are in great danger. You are the reincarnate goddess of light. If you are used by the wrong hands the end of the world will come as soon as the light is erased from your heart. The twelve gold keys you have represent the twelve zodiac spirits that are your guardians", Mira began to explain as she led her to sit.

Lucy was both confused and in awe. "But there is a being far stronger that his destiny is connected to yours. Centuries ago, there was a world where dragons roamed the earth causing destruction to the people. Some dragons opposed to the cruelty of their brethren decided to bless individuals with the powerful magic of a dragon to defeat the evil ones. But what no one knows is that the dragons in terms with humans were creations of the God Arian who wanted to protect his precious daughter, the Goddess of Light, Luciana. Luciana was more powerful than her father and her capture could lead to the destruction of the universe, but the dragons seemed to corner her by eliminating any other gods trying to protect their princess goddess. That's were the dragon slayers came in", Mira told her.

Lucy remained thoughtful. As crazy as it sounded, she was believing what she was being told. "Dragon slayers?" Lucy asked confused. "The individuals with the power to take characteristics of a dragon. They were given immense power and they were assigned to protect the gods. The king of dragons, Fire Dragon Igneel gave his power to his own individual who was assigned to protect Luciana. He was by far the strongest dragon slayer and he successfully defeated the dark dragons and their human ruler. You, Lucy, are that reincarnated goddess. If they capture you the dragons will be reborn and kill us all", Mira explained grabbing her shoulders.

Lucy stood up. "Me? A goddess?! There's no way!" Lucy exclaimed. "It's true. That ring fit you perfectly. I am the son of Igneel, a fire dragon slayer assigned to protect you. And as long as I live that ring will remain on your finger", Natsu interjected. Lucy sighed overwhelmed. As Leo, appeared before her. "It's true Lucy. As the leader of the zodiacs, I planted the idea into your father's head to transfer you here for your safety. It was the only guarantee that they won't find you sooner than necessary", he explained.

Lucy stayed silent before running out the halls. Natsu was about to follow her, but Mira stopped him. "She needs time after all this. Let her be for now. And plus she came here thinking she could have a normal life, but now she knows that's far from true. Treat her like any other friend, Mira sighed. "I wasn't thinking about treating her any differently than I do with any other person, but I wanted to let her know I'm still going to protect her", Natsu explained crossing his arms. "Alright, let's inform Master Makarov that we finally found her", Mira said as Natsu followed her.

This is crazy?! Lucy don't be stupid! This is your mind playing games. Maybe I am going crazy! Magic is supposedly to be extinct. Lucy could only think stopping her running by the time she reached the farthest side of campus. A river stretched on the outsides keeping the academy surrounded. She leaned against a tree sliding down until she was on her knees. "Mother...what can I believe?" She muttered feeling overwhelmed more than anything.

Crystal: well I hope you enjoyed the first chapter
