Hey readers this is my first story on Fairy Tail and if you think that this is just the average lucy getting replaced story then you are dead wrong

I have found that i like the part of lucy leaving to become stronger but i don't like the part where lisanna is always evil so i decided to make my own fanfic with my own take on the whole thing

This story is a little AU and has OCs in it, if you don't like just DON'T READ IT!

Ill stop rambling so y'all can read.

Chapter One: Saying Farewells

Lucy was walking along the river ignoring the fisherman as they warned me to be careful. Fairy Tail had been having a month long party for Lisanna who had 'come back from the dead.' Lucy had left the party just after what Natsu and her team had said to her.

Not only had her teammates just kicked her off the team but because of what she and Natsu had gotten themselves into three weeks ago she was nearly a month pregnant. Right before she had left the party she had spoken with her friends, the only people who seem to be noticing her right now, Levy, Gajeel, Juvia, Charle, and Wendy.

Lucy and informed them that she intended to leave the guild within the next few day. Now Lucy had caught herself thinking back on what exactly happened earlier that day.

~flashback Lucy PoV~

I'm sitting at my usual spot at the bar watching the festivities that surround Lisanna. I mean I don't have anything against Lisanna, it's just that whenever I try to talk to her we get interrupted be someone. I sigh looking over at the silver haired barmaid "Hey Mira could I have a Strawberry shake please."

"Sure, no problem, I'll be back in a minute," Mira replied before disappearing into the kitchen. After she was out of sight I felt a tap on my shoulder and I turned to see my teammates, Natsu, Gray, and Erza.

"What is it Natsu?" I ask, slightly nervous at the expression he is giving me. I flash a confused glance at Gray and Erza before looking back at Natsu.

"We want to have Lisanna on our team again," Natsu said. I felt my body freeze for a split second. "We promised her that when we got older we would form a team with her. . ." Natsu trailed off.

Yeah, and you can go solo and get stronger, so. . ." Gray trailed off.

"It's fine you guys," I said forcing a smile, "I'm sure you'll make a great team."

"Thanks so much Lucy," Natsu said before running back to his original spot.

I silently watched after them until I hear Mira come back from the kitchen. She hands my order to me and goes back to talking with her brother and Cana. I turn to see Levy, Wendy, Juvia, and Charle walking toward me.

"Juvia thinks we should talk somewhere private, is that okay with you Lucy," Juvia asks me, I simply nod before getting up to follow. As I get up I can feel Levy place a hand on my back for support. The five of us walk into the infirmary and sit down on the beds.

"I don't know if I can handle any more if this you guys," I say placing my face in hands to cover my tears. "I don't want to be here anymore, I think I should leave Fairy Tail, I'm only getting in the way."

"But you can't! Isn't Fairy Tail your family," Wendy exclaims, "Aren't we your family."

"I'm not saying you aren't, I just . . . don't know . . . if I can . . . keep up . . . this façade," I say in-between so. "And besides how am I supposed to keep This a secret," I point out placing a hand on my abdomen

My friends sigh, Levy places a hand on my shoulder and looks and me with an intense gaze.

"I don't want you to leave, but if this is your decision then I won't stop you , however," Levy says sternly, "you have to promise us one thing."

"Promise us that you'll come back," Charle continues, "no matter how long it takes."

"Alright, I promise," I reply, tears streaming down my face, Levy pulls me into a hug and Wendy and Juvia quickly join our group hug.

"Juvia thinks Lucy should go home and get some rest," Juvia says breaking the hug.

"Okay, I guess I can talk to Master about this in the morning, though I'm going to get up early so I might not see you guys. But I won't forget to keep in touch," I tell my friends before leaving the guild to go home.

~end of flashback~

I walk into my house and go up the stairs. As soon as I get into my bedroom I pull out a suitcase and begin to pack. After all I'll probably just leave right after seeing Master.

After I finish packing I go talk with my landlady, I give this month's rent and tell her that I will no longer be renting the house. When I come back I sit down at my desk and begin writing letters to the guild and my teammates. After I finish I collapse on my bed and fall asleep, a part of me dreading tomorrow.

~morning~

The light of the sun slowly filtered through the windows and into my room, peacefully waking me up. The first thing that pops into my head is what happened yesterday, and I can fell tears well up in my eyes.

I drag myself out of bed and get myself ready. Before I leave the house I summon Plue and pick the small spirit up.

"Time to go to the guild and talk to Master," I say as cheerfully as I can before walking out the door. It took me about a half an hour to reach the guild, but for once I didn't mind. Besides I was still early, I doubt anyone other than Master and Mira are here at the moment, I thought to myself as I opened the door to the guild.

"Good morning Mira," I call out as I walk over to the bar.

"You're here quite early Lucy," Mira says giving me a questioning look.

"I came early because I need to talk with Master about something," I reply cheerfully, "is he in his office?"

"He should be, though I think he'll be leaving soon so you might want to make it quick," Mira answers returning to her work of getting the guild ready for the day.

~Master's PoV~

I keep my head down as I continue to work on the pile of written apologies. It isn't long before I hear a knock at the door.

"Come in," I say without raising my head from my work. I look up when I hear the door close and see Lucy, her eyes red from crying.

"I have a favor to ask of you Master," Lucy says sitting down in one of the chairs, "would it be alright for me to leave the guild to train." I look at my child, my eyes wide with shock, this shock soon change to saddness as I sit down on my desk and look at her.

"I won't stop you but can you tell me why you would want to leave," I ask, still slightly shocked.

"I was kicked off of my team because I'm weak, nearly everyone in the guild is ignoring me and making me feel like a replacement, and I need to get stronger, for the both of us," Lucy replies tears streaming down her face. At her last statement I see her place a hand on her abdomen.

I sit on my desk slightly shocked by what she told me, I hadn't known any of this was going on until now. I'm a pathetic excuse for a father, not even realizing that something was wrong with my own child.

"I . . . see . . ." I reply still shocked. "When will you be leaving and more importantly, when are you coming back."

"I'm leaving as soon as I finish speaking with you and . . ." Lucy trails off, "I don't know when I'll come back . . . 3 to 5 years maybe more."

"I understand, come here child," I sigh as she walks over. I place my hand over hers and mutter a spell, I take away my hand to reveal her blank one. I look to see a tear role down her cheek. "Don't worry yourself Lucy, the moment you walk back through the main entrance of Fairy Tail your mark will reappear. But Lucy, never forget that Fairy Tail is your family and your home, and that no matter what you think, you will always be welcome. Also know that you were never a replacement, no one could ever replace a precious child mine, neither you nor Lisanna."

"Thank you Master," Lucy says smiling, "I have one last favor to ask of you though." Lucy puts her hand into her pocket and pulls out several letters and hands them to me.

"What are these?" I ask as I look at the letters, one to the guild, her teammates, and Happy.

"They're letters for my teammates, Happy, and the guild," she tells me as she looks down at the floor. "I'd like it if you could give these to them once they have realized that I am gone, and if today anyone asks where I've gone can you tell them that I'm on a solo mission."

I look from Lucy and back down to the letters, as a run my hand across them I can feel the seal that has been placed on them. "I shall do as you ask, and I will always be waiting for your safe return."

"Thank you Master, for everything," Lucy says exiting my office and leaving with a question. Even though I had my guesses, just who Was the father of her unborn child?
