Prolog: One Year After

It has been a whole year since Levy died in the Underworld. A lot of things have changed since that fateful day, but most of it wasn't for the good. Lucy and Erza have now spiraled out of control since Levy could no longer hold them together. While Lucy and Erza still had each other, there was a hole in their heart they couldn't seem to fill. As the year progressed the worst the hole felt and soon it consumed them. Now it seemed whenever the two weren't at school they were getting drunk or high or something in order to forget about the friend they lost. No matter how many times people tried to help it seemed like nothing could help them.

So when Lucy woke up in an alleyway it was of no surprise to her. FIguring she had been drunk or something she stumbled to get up. However she found that it was still dark out and her head was not pounding, two unusual things for her when she woke up somewhere that wasn't her or Erza's bed. Frowning in confusion she decided to try and find her way home and call Erza in the morning to try and figure out what they did. She didn't remember doing anything at the moment, but she figured Erza might be able to shed some light on her predicament. Stumbling out of the alleyway, her legs had somehow fell asleep, she found a strange sight in front of her.

In front of her was a man with long, tangled black hair that looked like he never brushed it, piercing that covered his face, and was dressed in all black. However the strangest thing about him was his dark grey wings that she almost mistaken for black because it was so dark. The wings looked like angel wings and she wondered if he was going to a costume party, even though it wasn't near Halloween. Over her nights of bar hopping with Erza she learned some people like to dress up weirdly at night, but this guy almost seemed to be staring right at her. Sighing the man shook his head and brought up his phone to call someone. Was she being stalked by some strange dude? How? Her and Erza had tried to be careful, but then again you can only be so careful when drunk.

"Hey Levy, it's me," the strange black haired man said into the phone. At first Lucy was going to walk away until the hole in her heart opened wide open at the name. Did he just say Levy? B-But Levy died a year ago, Lucy thought. Levy wasn't an extremely popular name and it was unusual to hear anyone be called it. Quickly she walked around the corner and hid to hear the rest of the man's conversation with the mysterious person on the phone.

"Yeah, I found Lucy. For some reason she was in an alleyway, but hopefully she was just a little drunk or something," the man said into the phone. Lucy could have swore she heard the person on the other side sighed and sounded upset. There is no way it could be Levy, even Cecilia knew she was dead. Levy wouldn't hide from even her mother.

"No, Erza wasn't with her, which is strange. I don't know what happened to her but I think she is walking home now, which means I should head home too. See ya soon, love you," the man said before hanging up. Now Lucy was even more confused than before. Before Levy died she wasn't dating anyone that she knew of, besides Levy was so focused on school she didn't even notice when a boy did like her. Who on Earth is he?! Lucy wondered confused. For a moment she wondered if perhaps his wings were real, but she quickly dismissed that idea. Afterall, if there were such things as angels that walked on the Earth then she would have seen them by now.

"I should probably just go home," Lucy mumbled and began the walk to her home. She found she wasn't far from Levy's house so she knew her way home fairly well. Despite being friends with the blue haired girl, her and Erza had barely went to Levy's house, but they went enough to know the way home well enough. Slowly she walked back to her home and managed to sneak in undetected by her father or any of the staff. Once she was safely in her room she grabbed her phone and called the one person she could trust, Erza.

After ringing a couple times Erza answered the phone, "Hello? Who is calling me this late? This better be good." Out of curiosity Lucy glanced at the clock to see just what time it is and found it was only about midnight. No wonder she was able to sneak in so easily, typically the staff started looking for her around three or four.

"Erza, it is only midnight. I know you aren't sleeping by now," Lucy reminded her friend. Normally they would be together, but Erza had to study for a test or something. "DO you remember if I mentioned what I was going to do tonight?" Lucy asked.

"Actually no, I think you were just going to do some shopping and go home or something. No good parties are in town and we promised not to go to a club without each other," Erza stated. WHile Lucy remembered promising, promises didn't really matter.

"Yeah, but I woke up in an alleyway and saw some guy with grey angel wings," Lucy told Erza. From the phone she could hear Erza stifling a laugh.

"I think you just had something that made you hallucinate. You really should just sleep it off," Erza told her simply. Still freaked out she decided to tell her the weirdest part about what she saw.

"Yeah but the man said he was talking to Levy and even said that he loved her into the phone," Lucy told her finally. This time instead of hearing a stifled laugh she heard nothing but dead silence. The two of them had an unspoken code not to bring up Levy too much, but this normally wasn't a problem since the drugs and alcohol made them forget all about their Levy problem.

"I don't know what you were on or taking but you shouldn't do it again. We decided to do this to fill the void that Levy left after she died. Don't make this harder by taking that again," Erza said finally. Lucy couldn't help but agree with her friend, but what she experienced felt much realer than anything else she had ever felt.

"Yeah, guess you are right. Well I should head to bed so I wouldn't be totally dead tired. Are we still on for me coming over tomorrow?" Lucy asked quickly.

"Of course, what else would we be doing with our time anyway?" Erza scoffed. Sadly this had become true about the relationship between the two. Their parents had tried to keep them apart for that very reason, but no matter what they tried nothing seemed to work.

"Yeah, your right, later," Lucy said before hanging up, not even bothering her to let her friend say bye. One would think that Lucy would always take an opportunity to say that she loves a friend after losing one to murder, but Lucy was too numb to care. Sighing she lied down in her bed in fell into a blissful sleep of nothingness.

The next morning proved to be weirder than the night before. At first it started out like every other morning she had. Lucy put on a skimpy outfit that her maid didn't approve of. After the long lecture about how she should dress better Lucy would simply shrug it off and go downstairs. However this is when things got strange. Looking out the front window she saw something she had never seen in her life before and she had to admit she was scared. In front of her lay hundreds of black creatures. Some looked rather lizard like, while other were black as night monkey like creatures but with feather wings. Lucy had to place a hand over her month to keep from screaming.

"Lucy, what is wrong?" her father asked her once he came down from his room. It took a moment or two for Lucy to peel her eyes off the horrid creatures that now littered her yard for some reason. Then it took a couple more minutes for her to formulate an answer for her dad.

"Ummm, can you see anything outside?" Lucy asked pointing to the window, not daring to look herself. Her dad sighed and looked out the window before groaning.

"Isn't it a little early to be hitting the drugs?" her dad spat at her before starting to make himself breakfast.

"I haven't had any drugs this morning," Lucy hissed at her father. Since she and Erza had decided to start drinking and doing drugs to fill the emptiness her father always suspected she was on drugs, though she wasn't that addicted actually. For some reason Erza and her had low addiction levels.

"Well how am I supposed to know when you and Erza are practically doing it every couple seconds?! Listen, I know losing Levy was hard for you two but is this what she would want? You two are just going to get yourselves killed!" Lucy's father began to lecture her.

"Listen dad, it is too early to do drugs and I am not with Erza. If you don't believe I don't really care anymore. If I get myself killed it'll be alright, the only person who would care would be Erza and she will probably died with me. However," Lucy said, her voice suddenly changing to become darker, "Never say you understand what it was like to lose Levy, or mention her at all for that matter, ever again!" Lucy's father was taken aback to hear his daughter yell at him. Before he can counter and start lecturing her on not yelling at her father Lucy was out the door.

"Where are you going now?!" Lucy's father roared. Ever since Levy died Lucy was never home and her father said it was only a matter of time before she wouldn't come home ever again.

"Where do you think? Erza's," Lucy called as she walked out the front door. Once outside she started on the short walk to Erza's apartment. Erza's parents had died years ago so she was now forced to live alone, but she had been doing it so long Erza couldn't remember a time when she didn't.

Lucy finally arrived at Erza's after a ten minute walk and knocked on the door to the red head's apartment. Erza answered after a couple seconds, beer bottle in hand. The red head grinned down at her friend before taking a big gulp of her beer. Erza had always been more into alcohol than Lucy and much more into beer. Lucy prefered wine herself, but she would drink a beer if she had to.

"Goood morning Lucy," Erza slurred, already drunk. Since Erza lived alone she could spend almost all her waking hours either drunk or high, but Lucy could not due to her dad. However whenever she went to Erza's she made sure not to drive so she wouldn't be tempted to drive under the influence.

"Hey Erza, what's for breakfast," Lucy grinned as she walked inside. The apartment was a mess, but it always had been. It was one of the few things that hadn't changed since Levy's death. Erza tossed Lucy a bottle of wine. "Oooooo, all for me?" Lucy asked with a mischievous grin.

"Naturally, I prefer beer!" Erza said proudly, lifting her beer bottle up into the air. This caused Lucy to chuckle. The few times that Lucy was sober anymore she did enjoy watching a drunk Erza from time to time. When Erza was drunk she let her guard down and was just silly.

"Well, a toast to a good life," Lucy said sarcastically. Their life was anything but good anymore, but they managed. Erza laughed and clinked her bottle onto Lucy's. The two girls then downed their bottle, giggling afterward.

After several more bottle, Lucy lost count after five since she just became too drunk to keep track of everything, Lucy decided she should probably stumble home.

"Yo, Erza, I should head home," Lucy slurred as she got up unsteadily. Lucy swayed side to side as she stood, but managed to stand up and start walking.

"Well, I guess I'll see ya later lightweight," Erza giggled as she waved Lucy out. Rolling her eyes Lucy just ignored her comment and left. The cold air smacked Lucy in the face as she was greeted by the night sky. She didn't think they had been drinking that long, but she supposed it didn't matter since most of her family didn't figure she would be home till around two or three in the morning anyway. Stumbling she tried to make it home, but ended up falling into the grass. This caused her to giggle till she felt a sharp pain in her leg, slightly sobering her up.

"Ow!" Lucy cried as she looked up to see what had happened. Staring at her was the eyes of some sort of winged black creature. Lucy tried to shake it off, but she really just wanted to vomit. The alcohol had taken its toll on her and now she was starting to regret her hard night drinking. The creature grinned at her and bite her other leg.

"Ahhhh!" Lucy screamed in pain as she tries to grab her leg and shoo the creature off. In her hazy state she recognized the black creature from the weird creatures she had seen this morning when her father accused her of being on drugs. The pain and alcohol mixed together was starting to be a bit too much for Lucy and black spots began to invade her vision. Biting her lip she tried to stay awake and continue trying to fight off the strange creature that was attacking her. However before she blacked out the same strange black haired man from the night before threw the creature off of her.

"Lucy?! Are you alright?!" the man asked. Confused Lucy couldn't figure out how he knew her name. Before she could ask any questions though she blacked out, leaving the strange man to protect her from the even stranger creature.
