Lucy and Scarlet

I do not own Fairy Tail!

So this is my first fanfic, this is for all us ErLu lovers out there. Hope i did a good job on it. I thought I'd try one out of boredom and the lack of ErLu. So here it is. Enjoy! Feedback is always appreciated.


Chapter 1

NORMAL POV

All of Team Natsu except for Erza, since she was out on a job, kick Lucy off the team after they got back from winning the Grand Magic Games.

Natsu rushes up to her sitting at the bar, "Hey Luce can we talk to you for a second?" Gray and Lisanna walk up behind him.

"Yeah, sure you guys. What's up?"

"Well we wanted to kick you off of Team Natsu because you are weak and we always have to keep saving your ass. Plus you were just a replacement for Lisanna anyway."

Gray then says, "But you can go on solo missions to get stronger, Right?"

"What did Erza say about this?" I Asked. Erza, is my first crush since entering the guild, the day that I saw her storm into the guild with beautiful scarlet hair and the demon horn in her hand as she approached the bar, and breaking Natsu and Gray up from their usual brawl. I knew she was not only strong, but beautiful and I found that as she opened up to me, she was kind and caring as well. After going on many jobs and many adventures with the team, I ended up finding myself falling for her.

"We haven't told her yet since she has been on a job for a week but I'm sure she'll agree," Natsu said with his cheeky grin.

For the entire week Erza was gone, the entire guild laughed at Lucy. She could hear people whispering, "why the weakling is back again" and "what is she doing here", others have been saying that she is a "disgrace to Fairy Tail." It all started ever since her performance at the Grand Magic Games, where they made fun of her when she lost to Flare, and nearly died against Minerva. The only ones that visited her in the infirmiry were Erza, Wendy, Juvia and Levy. Even though she did her best to help Fairy Tail become the number one Guild in Fiore. The only ones that still talked to Lucy were Erza, Mira, when she was at the bar, Wendy, Levy, Gajeel, Juvia and the exceeds. When Natsu takes it too far later that day, Lucy begins to crack from enduring all that she has gone through this past week, but what set it off was when the guild started attacking her for hurting Lisanna. She runs out of the guild trying not to show her tears in front of her so called "nakama".

Erza POV

I was walking back from the mission Makarov sent me on, which was to defeat some rogue mages that have been terrorizing one of the towns, only to see Lucy running from the guild trying to hold in her tears. I just wanted to comfort Lucy, but I needed to find out what happened and show that I completed the mission that master gave me. I am furious at this point seeing my "Cru…Close" friend run off like that. I kick the doors of the guild in and re-equip into my WingBlade armor, while ignoring the fighting going on.

"What the hell did you all do to Lucy," I yelled with a killing aura around me.

Natsu counters back, "she hurt Lisanna and she needed to pay for hurting our nakama."

"Hurting our nakama? Have you seen what you have all been doing to Lucy?" I shouted.

"She is not our nakama, she hurt Lisanna, she is weak and we always need to save her, plus we kicked her off of Team Natsu, don't you agree, Erza?" Natsu said back. Everyone nodded in agreement.

I was beyond livid, "You did WHAT? How dare you kick Lucy off without even asking my opinion. You know what I'm done with Team Natsu. You are not the team I remember you guys once were."

Gray was shocked at what Erza said and then decided to speak up, "How can you defend that weakling, Erza? Lisanna is so much stronger and will help the team in more ways than Lucy could."

"She has caused nothing but problems for me ever since I came back from Edolas. I thought the four of us and Happy were supposed to go on missions like the old days," Lisanna finally spoke trying to hold back her fake tears.

Master heard what was going on downstairs and thought to himself 'I can't believe those brats would do such a thing to her. It's unforgivable and is not what Fairy Tail is about. I was gone for a week and this is what happens?'

I was about to yell at the guild again when I saw master approach. I then decided to back off and ex-quip back into my Heart-Kreuz armor while I still glared at the group.

"Erza I need to see you in my office, it's about the 'mission'," Master spoke calmly not allowing them to see how furious he was at his children.

"O-okay master."

Erza and Makarov disappeared into his office.

"So Erza how did the mission go?"

"It went fine master. The bandits were part of one of the remaining dark guilds under Tartaros, in which I told Jellal and Crime Sorciere to take care of their main base. How have things been here?"

"Things have gotten worse as you can tell. But this is the first time they have actually attacked her. Those brats I swear if they hurt her again they will face my punishment."

"What happened today Master?"

Flashback

Lucy was walking toward the guild in her normal manner. She heard shouts coming from the river.

"Hey Miss Lucy, be careful" the boatmen yelled.

"Thank you, I will be fine!" She yelled as she put on a fake smile as she wondered if today would be any better.

She was 20 steps from the guild when she put on the lovable fake smile that she has been having to show for months. She opens the doors to the guild.

"Ohayo Minna," she yelled enthusiastically while entering the guild. But today was different instead of being ignored she could see them staring at her with dark auras around them. She then heard sniffling from up by the bar… it was Lisanna crying into Mira's chest.

Natsu was the first to run up to Lucy when she entered.

"Hey Natsu what going on? What happened to Lisanna?"

"Don't pretend that you don't know what happened, you BITCH. You hurt Lisanna, my mate, because you were jealous of her spending time with me. So you attacked her last night."

"WHAAAT? I would never hurt my nakama. She is either lying or mistaken on who attacked her. Minna, please believe me I would never do that."

Lisanna got up and played the memory lacrima of last night and indeed Lucy showed up in it, attacking Lisanna with Taurus. Levy and the others knew it was a fake memory because they were with Lucy last night but failed to say anything to help their celestial mage.

Lucy stared in shock, "N…no that's not right I would never hurt Lisanna. I never did that." At that time Loke and Virgo appeared to support the master and friend. Natsu was the first to lunge at Lucy.

"Iron fist of the fire dragon" Natsu shouted as rage consumed him. It hit Lucy square in the gut sending her into a coughing spell trying to regain her breath.

"Ice make: Lance," Gray yelled next sending 15 arrow shaped ice projectiles at Lucy. She could only dodge so many before she was grazed by half of them.

"Card Magic… Guns Magic… Evil Explosion… Beast Arm…"

Loke and Virgo tried to help their princess but were too slow and got caught in the attacks of the other guild mates sending them back to the celestial spirit world.

Lucy thought to herself 'Erza where are you? I need you' as tears started to well up in her eyes. She was the only one that kept them from attacking her earlier on.

Lucy was all alone against the guild until Gajeel, Juvia, Wendy, and Levy stepped in to help their friend.

"Oi, Bunny girl get outta here we'll handle this. GeeHee."

"Yeah Love Rival. Juvia will help you."

"Solid Script: Wall. Lu-chan we got this, we'll all meet at your apartment when we are done."

Wendy began healing Lucy so that she could run to her apartment. Lucy got up and started running towards the door.

She yelled back with tears in her eyes, "Thanks, you guys, you are my true nakama."
