hello! It's my first Fairy Tail fanfic so I hope you enjoy! Disclaimer: never have never will...

Lucy P.O.V

I sat at the far table in te corner if the guild, watching everyone party. Ever since Lisanna's "Triumphant return from the dead" FOUR MONTHS AGO, my team has been ignoring me greatly. At first it was just the team. Now it's the whole guild, except for Levy, Gajeel, Wendy, Happy (sometimes), Lisanna (not like I want her to. I can't be mad at her! She's to nice!) and the master. They have completely forgotten me, they take Lisanna on all types of jobs, patting her on the back every time the finish. It's like a slap in the face.

I look over to see Team Natsu walking up the stairs to the second floor, going into a room and shutting the door behind them. 'Great! Now is my chance to talk to them all together!' I think walking up the stairs. I stop outside the door when I hear my name.

"-yes but she's just that much weaker than Lisanna!" Says a voice, I identified as Natsu's. I gasped silently. How could he?

"I understand that too, it may be what's best for our safety and hers." says Erza. How could she say that?!

"Guys! You shouldn't do this! Lucy-chan is your team mate!" Says Lisanna in an angry voice.

"Lisanna you have to know that Lucy isn't really the strongest Wizard in Fairy Tail. In fact she may be the weakest." Says Gray. I clench my fists. Gray too? I relax a moment, they're right. I AM weak. I need to be stronger, than I shall return. The room is silenced.

"Who's going to tell her?" Asks Erza. I open the door. They all look shocked.

"No need, I heard the whole thing." I say on the verge of tears. "How could you?!" I scream. I run out and sprint back home. Leaving them there. Leaving them all behind.

I take a shower and relax into my pjs. I lock all the windows and doors. I never have, but I don't feel like seeing Natsu, or anyone. I sit on the edge of my bed, tears fall down my face. There is a bright glow from my keys and out comes, Loke. I sniffle, drying my tears.

"Loke *hic* I didn't summon you." I say. Giving my best brave face. He sits down next to me.

"I know princess, I'm here on my own magic. I heard about everything, I sensed your sorrow." He says putting his arms around me. I cry into his shoulder.

"I don't get it? Why?" I cry.

"I'm not sure, all I know is that we will be here with you, every step you take to get stronger." He confirms. More bright lights pop up. All my celestial spirit are standing in from of me. Even Aquarius! I look at them in awe.

"We will help you, Miss Lucy!" They say in unison. I cry more tears, tears of joy.

"T-thank you so much." And in that flash, they are gone. I get into bed with the same thought playing in my mind. 'I WILL be stronger', I think before drifting off to sleep.

Natsu P.O.V (after Lucy falls asleep.)

I walk up to Lucy's apartment, I jump up next to the window and try to open it but it's locked. I roll my eyes and look down to see a sleeping Lucy. If I listen carefully I can hear her say, "I will become stronger." In her sleep. I think for awhile before jumping down. I'll explain tomorrow.

*THE NEXT DAY*

Lucy P.O.V

I woke up early, earlier than anyone else and made my way to the guild. Only Mirajane was there, wiping tables.

"Mira, is master here?" I asked. She nodded and pointed up stairs without giving me a second glance. "Thanks." I walk up the stairs and knock on the door.

"Come In." Says the master. I walk in and bow.

"Hi master," I say in a false cheery tone.

"Good morning Lucy what brings you here this early?" He asks. I take a deep breath.

"I would like to quit the guild." I say, he takes a sharp breath.

"Are you sure child? Why?" He asks.

"I've been basically ignored by my fellow guild members and kicked off my team because...I'm to weak." A single tear alls down my face. "I would like to leave and come back when I am stronger. Please remove my mark." I say practically crying.

"My child! Are you positive?!" He says standing up.

"Please!" I say holding out my hand, fresh tears running down my face. Master has tears running down his face.

"Very well," he waves his hand over mine as the seal disappears. I bow.

"Thank you master, I will be back." I promise. I hug him, he's a little startled then hugs me back. "You must promise me that you can not tell a soul. Wait a few months to see if they catch on, tell them I went on a solo mission for jewels, alright?"

"Of course child, anything in your best wishes." He says keeping in his tears.

"Good by, master." I say before leaving. Walking down the stairs, Mira looks at me, before Turing back to her work. I walk back home an packed a bag filled with my clothes, then I wrote three letters. One for the Guild, one for Team Natsu and one just for Levy, Gajeel and Wendy.

Dear my Guild,

If you have found this letter, by now it may have been a few months. You may or may not have noticed that I'm not in the guild as often, that is because I have left. I no longer would like to be weak, I know you all think so. I have left and I will return when I feel fitted. I'm so sorry I left you with just a note, a personal good by would be to painful. Please don't look for me. I beg of you.

I love you all,
Lucy Heartfilia.

Next I wrote Wendy's, Gajeel and Levy's.

Dearest Friends,

Like I said, please don't look for me. I assume you understand why I left. I wrote you each a little note;

Wendy, you and Carla keep trying to get better! I know you an make it to S-class! Carla keep trying with your Future Sight! You went from friend to sister. I love you both. Best of luck!

Levy, my best friend and sister. Keep living on, don't worry about me, my novel should be in my second drawer to the left okay? Read it and when I return I expect a review! Good luck with Gajeel! I love you Levy!

Finally, Gajeel. Thank you for being there for me always, an protecting me. When I one back I promise I will be protecting you! Keep everyone in check for me, okay? Thanks so much.

Love,
Lucy Heartfilia. (Bunny girl)

The last one, my Ex-team.

Dear,
Natsu, Gray, Erza, Lisanna and Happy.

I'm going to give you each a little piece of my thoughts.

Gray, my brother. You have been there for me and helped me in those crazy times on our quests. You have protected and treated me like a sister. I will never forget you. P.S give Juvia a chance okay?

Erza, you're beautiful and brave. I hope that you remain this strong. Try to keep Natsu and Gray from fighting. I loved you like a sister and I hope that you never forget our time an keep your head held high.

Happy, my little neko friend. Please stay happy. You have been so kind from me, even when your calling me weird or fat. I will never forget you ever. Keep your head up, I will come back, hopefully.

Lisanna, I have no reason to be mad at you, you have been to kind to me so don't think it was your fault. It's not. You are the kindest person I know. Good luck with Natsu, my friend.

Natsu, I'm so sorry for being in your way. I will become stronger so you don't see me as weak any longer. You were like my brother, my protector and possibly one of my best friends. I hope to see you again in the future, Natsu.

Love, your friend,

Lucy Heartfilia.

On the last letter tears were falling down my face and staining the pages. I folded up the papers and put them in envelops putting them on my bed before closing the door behind me.

well? What did you think? Please review if you'd like, have a great New Year minna!
