Hey Guys Welcome to my new story of The Clash of Stars and Ice! I'm still working on my other stories, but I just wanted to put this one out there. Leave me some reviews and questions about the story. I don't own Bleach or Fairy Tail sadly. I'll try to upload a story by at least Friday hopefully so patience please. Well onto the story :)
Summary: Lucy is close to death and smiles at her friends as she falls into unconsciousness. Then an Anima portal transport her to another dimension, but what other than the Soul Society in Rukongai. Though she is still alive, she stumbles from exhaustion and is rescued by an elderly woman. With no memory of who or what she came from, but the pink mark on her left hand. Can she regain all her memory? Or can a boy with white hair and turquoise eyes guide her through survival? Notice: NaLu and HitsuXKarin, but mainly a Lucy-Toshiro sibling relationship story
Lucy POV (In a cavern):
I slowly open my eyes and could feel myself growing weaker every second. I look to see Wendy struggling to stop my wound from bleeding. Her eyes shone with determination and fear as she pushes herself to save me. I felt a ghost smile on my face as I turned to see Happy crying and hugging my arm with Carla reassuring him that I'll be fine. I can see how she was putting up an act because they needed someone strong to assure that I won't die. I feel my magic decreasing like my life force and fight back the urge to fall unconscious. No, I can't. Not yet until they come I thought sadly as the sound of a fight was heard. The roar of an angry dragon was heard along with a swipe of a blade followed by shattering ice. I take a deep breath, but feel my breath come out shallow. The footsteps caught my attention as though their life depended on reaching me, trying to save me from the hands of death. I refocused my attention to Happy as he caught my eyes.
"Lushy, please hang in there...…Wendy is going to make you feel all better, a-and then we can all go home and forget it about this. Please don't go away like last time…..." sobbed Happy as he clung onto my arm like it was the only thing to hold me back. I reached out to pat his head softly and gave him a small smile. Carla went to Wendy and held back a complaint about using her magic too much. She wanted to save me just as them, but I can tell her magic is deflating and her strength is leaving her. I gazed at the hole of the cavern viewing the stars that shined brightly and sighed.
"Wendy, that's enough. Don't push yourself, I don't want you to die as well," I spoke softly as I felt her stiffen from my words.
"….." ignored Wendy as she remained my healing. Carla glanced at Wendy and me, feeling confused and worried.
"Do you honestly think I can make it? If I survive this, then how would you be able to move my body with the state that everyone is in? Just stop and rest…just let me go peaceful," I replied emotionlessly.
"No, I won't let you die Lucy. Just like Happy said we are all going home and…and…," sniffed Wendy as her tears blinded her with sadness. I watched and used some of my remaining strength to soothe her. I didn't want to make her cry, but I did need her to realize that saving me was inevitable.
"This can't happen, Natsu swore he protected your future…Don't give up Lucy, please just don't say that like you're giving up…sob…Don't go away, don't leave…we love you," hugged Happy as he felt his heart break at Lucy's figure.
"Lucy…," whimpered Carla as she embraced Lucy from the other side.
"Wendy, Carla, and Happy…don't cry …smile for me. I love you guys with all my heart and please tell the others that… everyone in Fairy Tail as well," I smiled sadly as my own tears finally began to fall. I fell into unconsciousness hearing frantic voices call out my name.
"Lucy!" cried out the three in alarm and fear.
Natsu POV(aftermath of the battle):
Please…Please tell me this is some sick joke. She can't be dying! I made a promise to protect her future, to her and to everyone. I glared at the man that I just brought down with all the hatred build inside me. If only I didn't leave her to fight him, but she smiled and told me to go help out Wendy. If I just went against her protest this time just like all the others, would have I made a difference? She isn't dying, she is stronger than that. She closed the god damn eclipse gate and stopped the dragons from entering. Lucy can't be dying, but I can still smell her blood on this bastard's blade and hands. Why wasn't I there to protect her!
"Natsu, snap out of it," yelled Erza as I froze and turned to see her concerned gaze. Gray clasped his hand on my shoulders and met my eyes.
"We better hurry; Wendy is probably healing Lucy as we speak. There is no way she'll die on us," spoke Gray unsurely as I felt a chill rise up my spine.
"Natsu, have faith in Wendy. She's trying so hard to save Lucy, so don't add more pressure than it there needs to be," commanded Erza firmly as I flinched at the firm tone she used. We all began to head toward Lucy as the man I beat behind us spoke out.
"Ha-ha…do you really think that pathetically weak celestial mage will survive? I made sure to cut her deep within her stomach and watch in glee as her blood dripped onto the ground. Her face was the something I wish I took a photo of the expression of shock and pain. All the while she tried to holding back calling a particular name. I believe it was Natsu since she finally said it as she tumbled to the ground. Judging by your look, it was you Salamander," croaked the man as he grinned evilly at me. My fist clenched and I fought the urge to strangle the man now. Then I sensed the magical pressures of a fainting one and a reducing one in the distant, then there was this man's magical energy that was leaving him.
"Too bad…your girl is gone Salamander or shall I say Natsu…hehe…I wish I was there to see the grief in all of your faces…damn I guess she will be joining me on the other side soon…," smirked the man as his eyes closed and his breathing stopped. Then I saw in his hand a potion and went to grab it and sniff the contents.
"What is it, Flame Brain?" asked Gray as I gave a sigh.
"The potion was poison Ice Princess. I'm guessing he didn't plan to stick around with us after we beat his men," I answered solemnly.
"The risk people drastically take to get away from the hands of justice," stated Erza sadly as her eyes darkened with sadness.
"Let's go and meet up with the others," urged Gray as we all continue towards their location. All the while she tried to hold back calling a particular name…no no no…Judging by your look, it was you Salamander… Damn it Luce..why…your girl is gone Salamander or shall I say Natsu… I ran with all my might, ignoring the calls of Erza and Gray. My heart clenching in fear and the thought of losing her began to increase as I was near within distance of them. Why? Why didn't she call my name or ask for help?!
"Lucy!" called Happy, Wendy and Carla as I saw Lucy fainting away like dust. They were holding her down from floating away and I stood there in shock.
"Lucy, don't take her away please," sobbed Happy as I moved my shock form to go help. As if passing through a wall, then she passed through them and continued to float away. I reached out and held onto her left hand tightly. My eyes tear up as I could feel her slipping from my grasp…No this really can't be happening.
"Lucy, please don't go. I love you," I begged silently in my mind as she slipped through my grip and disappeared. My eyes widen in shock, fear…all bottled emotions build up inside of me.
"LUCY!" I yelled as I heard the others cry out for her. I fell down and placed my hands onto the ground.
(No One's POV) Somewhere within Rukongai:
Toshiro's Grandmother was taking a midnight stroll despite the news about hollows attacking within the area. She was feeling like taking one especially tonight because the air was supposed to be cold by then. The cold air reminded her of her grandson and she looked at the stars wishing him the best of luck in the society.
"I wonder how Momo and Toshiro are doing, those two must be keeping themselves busy what not? Sigh…I wish they come and visit already," sighed Granny. She would usually say this, but understood that working within the Soul Society was difficult even since Toshiro became the Captain of the Tenth Division and Momo was the lieutenant of Fifth Division. She smiled at how well her children had progress in strength and mind.
"Ah…the air feels very nice, but I could use a nice hot green tea about now. I wish Toshiro was here to see the moon, it looks so beautiful tonight especially with the stars. Well this old girl better get a move on," spoke Granny in awe. She continued on home until a flash of gold caught her eye and she glanced out to see where it was coming from. Watching the area around her cautiously, she heard a rustle sound in of the bushes by her right. Her eyes widen and her breath was caught in shock.
"Who are you?" she asked the person being illuminated by the moon's reflection as they stumbled forward to the ground.
"Oh my dearie, are you alright? What is your name?" concerned Granny as the person glanced at her with tired eyes.
"My name is Lucy," spoke Lucy weakly as she fell unconscious. This girl she's human, but is wounded right now. It's best to take her in my home what with all the attacks in all. Hold on Lucy thought Granny as she carried Lucy quickly into her home. As she tended Lucy's injuries, she debated whether or not to inform the Soul Society of this problem.
"But if I do that, then who knows what might happen to her. It's best to keep her here for now. Maybe when Toshiro returns he'll know what to do I'm sure of it. This poor girl must have been through a lot judging by her injuries. I wonder what could have happen to her…yawn…well I better get some sunshine," yawned Granny as she slept by Lucy's side the whole morning.
Fairy Tail two weeks after Lucy's disappearance(No one's POV):
Master Makarov was watching his children suffer from the loss of losing their most precious member, Lucy. When Team Natsu arrived the look of sorrow and heartbroken on their faces raised many questions on what happened to Lucy. The whole time they told their tale, Natsu was as silent as ever and sat at the bar drowning his pained heart with fire whiskey. After his fourth drink, Mira refused to serve him anymore. Everyone was either looking down or hugging and crying with one another. This broke the master's heart deeply as he gazed at their expressions.
"Natsu, it's alright to cry," cried Lisanna as she hugged Happy tightly. Wendy hugged Carla and Mira tightly as tears streamed down her face. Natsu already cried out his heart in his sleep thought Wendy sadly as she recall the whole trip back here. Everyday everyone would separate to their place and come back by dinner time, eating in deep silence and having short conversations. At night, when Natsu thought everyone was completely asleep cried towards the stars, silently begging for this to be a dream and nothing more of a nightmare.
"I don't want to cry right now," pained Natsu as his vision started to become blurry by his tears that were unconsciously falling without his knowledge. This shocked a lot of the guild members and Wendy went up to hug Natsu as he hugged her back as well.
Mavis watched from up the ceiling as she grasped her gown's top in pain at the sight of her guild falling into a sad time. The thing that bothered her was about how Lucy vanished without a trace as if her whole being disappeared somewhere that no one can reach. She could still feel Lucy's presence in her Fairy Tail Guild mark somewhere or somehow she is alive. The only thing left is for her family to realize this and conduct a search for Lucy. Her eyes lay upon Natsu as she saw a distant look in his eyes as if he knew something that they have yet to tell everyone. Natsu Dragneel, when the time comes will you be able to tell everyone what exactly happened to Lucy thought Mavis as she disappeared from sight. Natsu felt as if someone was telling to speak out what he saw, but he knew now was not the time. He caught Erza and Gray's eyes and they nodded. Not yet, but hopefully soon as possible thought Natsu.
In the barracks of Squad Ten(Toshiro POV):
"Captain~ Where are you?" called Rangiku as she looked within the Captain's quarters. She sighed exasperatedly and looked around the room to see the finished paperwork with the captain's signatures on his desk.
"Oh Rangiku, are you looking for Captain Hitsuagya? He's on the rooftop of the building," answered a fellow member as he continued on his work.
"Really? Thanks," spoke Rangiku happily as she headed for the rooftop. I felt the wind blow through my hair and I sighed in relaxation. Until a cheery voice broke through my tranquility, and I sighed in exaggeration.
"Captain, Captain Hitsugaya, what are doing up here?" asked Rangiku as she popped herself onto the roof.
"I was just relaxing until you disrupted me," I stated obliviously as she pouted at my response.
"You're so mean, Captain and hear I thought you would like to hear some news," complained Rangiku as I sighed once more and scratched my head in the process.
"What is it now, Rangiku?" I asked annoyed by her usual antics.
"We are being sent off to the World of the Living next week or that's what Renji told me," gossiped Rangiku as my eyes widen at this new information.
"Does he happen to know for what purpose?" I inquired as Rangiku shook her head 'no.'
"No clue, apparently it's supposed to be discussed in the next Captain's meeting which is in two weeks," answered Rangiku unabatedly. Then Momo appeared beside us looking afraid which caught my eye.
"Momo, what's the matter? You look like you've seen a ghost," concerned Rangiku.
"Are you alright, Momo? Did something happen?" I asked as her eyes caught mine with fear and worry.
"Lil'Shiro, there have been reports that hollows have been attacking Rukongai. I'm worried about Granny, but I don't have time to visit her. So I was wondering if you could go and see if she's alright," worried Momo as I nodded.
"I'll take leave for now since I'm not required until two weeks. Don't worry Momo, I head straight there once I arrive. I leave all paperwork to you Rangiku," I replied in haste as I ran to see the Head Captain. My thoughts were focused on Granny and hoping she is still alright.
"Captain, that's not fair! I want to come with you," complained Rangiku as she watched her Captain's leaving figure.
"I hope she's alright. If something were to happen to her, then Lil'Shiro would feel heartbroken," Momo flinched at the thought of Toshiro being broken.
"Don't worry; I'm sure she's fine. Besides if Captain Hitsugaya is there, then the situation in Rukongai would be back to normal in no time. Jeez why did he have to leave me with all the paperwork for two weeks?" reassured Rangiku as Momo smiled at her friend's silliness. Be safe Lil'Shiro thought Momo as she gazed out at the sky.
