This story was based on characters made up by my friends who also love fairy tail, but I also added some of my own ideas and characters. This is my first fanfiction and may be a bit...different. I'm also sorry if I get some of the information from the story wrong since it's been a VERY long time since I've watched the anime, or read the manga.

I do not own fairy tail, Hiro Mashima does, and otherwise nalu would have already been shipped, and sailed.

Normal P.O.V

"Soon..." said a deep male voice, in a deep underground cave in the north of Fiore.

"Be patient my brother, soon she will die, and we can take her place", said another, in a female voice.

"Ive already waited 400years; I can wait a few more months Catherine" even though he said this sentence with such hatred, a silent tear rolled down his cheek.

A girl with short red hair in a neat bun, with a pure black outfit (AN: sort of like Sasuke's outfit in Naruto Shippuden when he first meets Naruto for almost 3years. Gomenasai I'm obsessed with Naruto) ,entered the room "Master? I've brought news of the girl, she's...""Yes, what has happened to her?" once again the male asked, his head turning towards the girl with red hair. But then suddenly turned his head towards the door, having a feeling that someone was watching them "She has awakened"

His eyes opened wide, while swivelling his head back towards the girls. With surprise evident on her face, came a dark power, his black bangs covering his now red eyes. A giant gust of wind that forced the two girls in the room to close their eyes. Winding it's self around his body, but just as quickly as it has appeared, it disappeared, taking the man with him.

"Damn it, my stupid brother! Come back right now, Zeref!" Catherine shouted out to no one in particular.

She ran outside, with the girl close behind her. "Lady, where might you be going?" "To fetch my stupid brother from doing something stupid" Catherine replied with a slight growl, and anger evident in her voice. But by now Zeref was already long gone.

"Now I have to chase after him! why couldn't have he just forgotten her" her voice almost quivering with emotion at the end, as though she was going to start crying at any moment. you could hear her take a deep breath, sigh, then stride over to where the sunshine lit the ground. Catherine could feel the power growing inside of her.

Her brother had the darkness, the shadows, the fear...

While she had the light, the joy...

This made her feel close to him, but then she also had the same power...why couldn't he just buy it that it was his sister and not that blondie that had saved him.

"Ohayo minna!"Lucy greeted everyone in her normal, cheerful manner. She had a big smile, walking toward Mira, at the bar. She saw a person move in the shadows, in the corner of her eye, at the back of the guild. she turned her head to see who it was but he (or she was assuming it was a he) had already disappeared. When she saw this it had reminded her of her of her strange dream.

Flashback

A deep tunnel with small lacrima lights, on the walls that only just lighted the paths. She had been wondering, she thought was hours, around this underground maze. She peeked to her right, as though something caught her eye. Lucy slowly turned her whole body towards the room on her right and peered through the small crack of the open door. A male voice "...Soon she will die, and we can take her place..." said a menacing woman's voice, which sent shivers down Lucy's spine.

As she looked closer she noticed that the woman was in fact very beautiful. Long dark brown hair that seemed almost black, with the small light that lit the room it made it look as though she had copper colours that were merged into her hair. Pale blue eyes that showed pure evil, yet somehow held some sort of kindness, caring. This woman, who she assumed was called Catherine, as a man's voice had called her that, was probably a few centimetres taller than herself.

She had no idea who the man was, but she had the feeling that she had already met him somewhere before.

End flashback

LUCY'S P.O.V

"...ce! LUCY!" my head swivelled towards the voice that was calling my name. My brown eyes met with onyx ones, they belong to none other than my best friend Natsu! (AN: *fangirl squeal* sorry Natsu's my favourite fairy tail character!)

"Hey Natsu" I said with my biggest smile, even brighter that before.

"Nothing, just you looked a bit spaced out, and I was worried" returning the smile.

"How 'bout going on a mission?!" blushing a bit that Natsu cared for me this much "Just you me, and happy?!" I asked since my rent was going to be due next week, and maybe if it was a simple mission Natsu wouldn't destroy half of the town our mission was centred in.

"Sure!" He got up from the stall he was sitting on to go look for Happy. That was somewhere in the Fairy Tail guild's brawl, that was taking place on the other side of the hall. (AN: can you call it that?)

"A strawberry milkshake, Mira!" (AN: what is it with Lucy and strawberry milkshakes?) "Coming up straight away" My gaze wandered to where the shadow figure had been before, that had reminded me of the dream. Wondering where this mysterious figure was. So i just turned back to the counter, waiting for my strawberry milkshake.

GRAY P.O.V

I saw Lucy enter, with her usual smile. But I could tell something was wrong, something was different, as if she was using her smile to cover what she was really feeling. You notice these things when you like someone. Little things that others don't notice.

I looked back towards Lucy and saw her talking to Natsu. I scowled. Natsu may have been my friend deep down, but he was still my rival. And I got even more annoyed when I noticed Lucy was blushing slightly, while talking to Natsu.

When Natsu walked away I let out a deep sign, realising id been holding my breath without realising. How much i wanted to hold her, but I knew she only saw me as a older brother figure.

ZEREF P.O.V

She almost saw me, though while panting hard, trying to re-catch my breath. I had to hurry, before Catherine came to collect me. She was more stunning than ever. Lucy Heartfilia.

I could feel a tear trickle down my cheek.

I remembered what my twin, and older sister told me, "Be patient my brother, soon she will die, and we can take her place..." This pained me, as I knew there was nothing I could do until she completely remembered. I would just have to wait at that place until she came to find me out of her free will.

Ok! So first chapter done! So I've always thought that Gray was an older brother figure to her, but he likes her. And yes Zeref has an old twin sister (Catherine). I haven't really decided the ships yet. Review and tell me who you want with whom. Please be kind since, as I mentioned before this is my first fanfic. Please also give me suggestions, like what should Lucy have as a secret power, or if I should lengthen, or shorten the chapters. (Not really sure)

Bear with me till the next chapter...Arigato
