Hey! New story time xD!
I OWN NOTHING!
The world hurtled past the windows of the train in which Lucy rode in. It had been 4 years... Four years since she had been in Magnolia. Since she had seen Fairy Tail, since she had seen him. She bit her lip as she anxiously looked out the window. There were so many questions buzzing around her mind. Would they forgive her? Would they accept her again? Would they hate her? Those were all questions she had no answers to.
"Mommy, are we there yet?" Lucy hesitantly pulled her eyes away to look at a boy who sat across from her. A boy with large Caribbean blue eyes. She slightly wondered how his eyes were even blue, because his father didn't have blue eyes either.
"No Jace, not yet, we'll be there soon," Lucy smiled as she patted the seat next to her, "Come and sit with mommy and Riko, Jace,"
The child who sat beside her was a small girl. Riko's long blonde hair was pulled back in a ponytail as she slumped against her mother, fast asleep. Her breath against Lucy's side slightly tickled. Lucy giggled. She stroked Riko's blonde hair as she watched Riko snuggle closer.
The boy paused for a moment. He looked at his mother and his sister for a long moment, probably thinking about something else.
"Mommy, why do people whisper about me?" Jace looked perturbed, and slightly distraught, "I can hear them callin' you mean names. Why, mommy? Why people bein' bullies?"
Lucy looked at her small boy with sadness in her eyes. She opened her arms to her son, "Come here, Jace,"
Jace nodded as he scooted off of the chair and he plopped to the ground, causing the woman in the booth next to them to laugh.
"Your son is quite adorable. How old is he?" The woman beside them asked. She had long red hair, and beautiful brown eyes, she was smiling at Lucy. She reminded Lucy so much of Erza...
"He is four," Lucy smiled in return.
"And the little girl?"
"She is four as well, they are twins,"
The woman nodded, her eyes kept going back to Jace who had cuddled up beside her, "He looks a lot like the Salamander from Fairy Tail, doesn't he?"
Lucy nodded numbly, "He does, doesn't he..."
The woman smiled one last time before turning back to her window.
"Mommy," Jace whined, snuggling up against his mother's hip, "You didn't anwser me,"
Lucy nodded as she brought her son close to her, "People whisper because they are curious, and some people just whisper a lot," Lucy squeezed her son, "But remember, no one can make you feel small unless you let them,"
"Mommy, you're silly," Jace snorted, "No one can make me small if i am small. Duh,"
Lucy laughed to herself as she hugged her son once more, "Yeah, I am silly,"
They sat in silence for a while, until Jace started
Jace nodded as he looked up at Lucy. "Mommy, I gotta pee,"
Lucy sighed as she stood, taking her son by the hand as Lucy guided her son to the next car, where the bathroom was.
The car shook, and Jace whimpered, his face turning the color of Loki's jacket, green. Lucy peered down at her son, whose face was a dark green. He was never good with vehicles, much like his father. Riko tugged on Lucy's long flowing gypsy skirt, as the colors of blue, gold, and red danced along the skirt's silver tint when the sun hit it just right. As it did in the train. Lucy turned to looked at Riko.
"I'm hungry ,mommy," Riko bluntly stated as her stomach growled. Lucy smirked as she patted her daughter's head.
"Come on, let's get one issue done at a time, okay?"
Riko nodded grudgingly as she followed her mother into the next car. The children held onto their mother's skirt as if it was their lifeline and the only thing they knew about in their whole lives. Because in a way... it was all they knew. They had grown up in the old Heartfilia estate that was now a town. Jace and Riko had grown up there all of their lives, for their four years of life. Jace had never rode a train before, Riko never tried Ramen, or and nor did Riko or Jace even seen a moving vehicle. It was a completely new world...
As Lucy ,Riko and Jace passed a certain booth, Riko let go of her mother's silk skirt and turned to see a blue flying cat, who flew over a man with pink hair. Riko yawned as she scooted into the booth across from the man and she lay down across from him. She watched the man for a long moment before copying everything he did. From gagging to staring out in space.
"Natsu, there's a little girl makin' fun of you," Riko sat up and scooted off of the booth seat. Something about the man seemed familiar, but she knew she had never met the man. Riko climbed up onto the booth and she watched the man as he cringed while the train hit a bump in the tracks.
Riko looked down at the man's face with two large Caribbean blue eyes.
Happy sat on Natsu chest as he looked at Riko for a long moment,
"Who are you-?"
Lucy turned too looked for Riko, her little ponytail could be seen from the bathroom entrance as she waited for Jace to come out. Lucy ran over to Riku and snatched up her daughter before anyone could react or even see her face.
The man who laid there smelled the strong scent of lilacs and vanilla, a foreign but familiar scent. His eyes snapped open. He forced himself to sit up. He looked around. Was it his imagination? No. It couldn't have. It wasn't possible; she died four years ago... right?
"Lucy?" The name rolled off his lips naturally, and at the same time it was tight, hard, cold, and filled with pain. As soon as he said her name, he wanted to quickly snatch it back. As if grasping at straws, he wanted to remember Lucy, he didn't want to lose her, he had lost all most all of her, all except for the memory of her. And her name, her beautiful, precious name, was one of the most important things in the world to him.
And scene. Thank you for reading the first chapter! I truly hope that you enjoyed this! And Please alert me if it doesn't make sense. Also, a few reviews would be very much appreciated!
