~Achnlogia was defeated a week ago~
Lucy was in her room writing a book. A book about her adventures with fairy tail and about how Achnologia was defeated. Lucy was sure this book was going to be a best seller. Lucy gets up and stretches till she hears a knock at the door. Lucy gives a confused look. She wasn't expecting visitors and knows full well if it was one of her guild mates they would of just barged in without knocking. Lucy just shrugs and ignores the door and sits back at her desk and starts writing again. Then there was another knock at the door. Lucy sighs. "Seriously who would that be" lucy says frustrated. Lucy pushes herself from desk frustrated. Lucy walks and opens the door. Lucy stands surprised to see Spetto standing there. Spetto used to be a maid of the Heartfilila Kozen. "Hello Miss Lucy. My haven't you grown up. You look so much like your mother" Spetto says as she touches Lucy's cheek. "Sp-p-petto? Why are you here?" Lucy asks bewildered with a confused look. "Miss Lucy you know a pretty lady shouldn't look confused it will cause wrinkles you know" Spetto says looking at Lucy. "Spetto how rude of me. Do you want to come in?" Lucy asks as she opens her door to her apartment to the old lady. Spetto nods as she walks in the apartment and sits at the table. Lucy shuts the door and sits across from Spetto.
"Spetto you don't have to call me Miss. You aren't a servant of the Heartfilila Kozen anymore. So you can just call me Lucy." Lucy says looking at the old women and watch her make a disgusted look of not calling her Miss. "Miss Lucy how much do you know about what your father left you after he died?" Spetto asks. Lucy puts a finger to her cheek thinking trying to remember. "Nothing I know of. Why?" Lucy asks confused. "Lucy I was asked to give you this letter if Achnologia was defeated. Your father trusted me with this letter. That is why I'm here" Spetto says as she passes Lucy a white envelope with Lucy written on the front in neat cursive. "Do you know what is in the letter?" Lucy asks as she takes the envelope. "No Miss Lucy. It wasn't my business. Now that I have fulfilled my duties I must leave" Spetto says as she gets up and walks to the door. "Spetto don't you want to know what is in the letter?" Lucy asks. Spetto shakes her head. "No Miss Lucy. It's for only your eyes. Goodbye Miss Lucy" Spetto says and walks out the door. Lucy quickly gets up and runs to the door and opens it. But Spetto was gone.
Lucy sighs and shuts the door. Lucy leans against the door and looks at the envelope on her table. Lucy walks and picks the envelope up gently and walks to her bed and sits on her bed. Lucy just stares at the letter for 10 minutes tracing her name on the envelope with her finger. The last letter to her from her father. Lucy was so unsure to open the letter or not. Another 10 minutes passed then Lucy decides to delicately open the envelope and reads the letter.
'To my dearest daughter Lucy,
You must be getting this letter from Spetto because I have died before Achnologia was defeated. I'm sorry I couldn't tell you this in person. But please remember I love you Lucy. I'm sorry i didn't give you the attention you wanted or respected your feelings. I guess it was just hard watching you grow up looking so much like your mother. Lucy after I sold the Kozen i worked hard at a guild again. I worked really hard to try and set you up for life. Provide to you what i should of have. Lucy I bought back the Kozen and our estate so you can visit your mothers and my grave whenever you like. Because I have died you are the sole heir that inherits the Kozen and the estate. They are entirely up to you to choose what you do with. But Lucy before you do anything with it I want you to visit the estate. I have left you a gift. A gift you shouldn't pass up. You will regret it if you don't visit. I'm sorry Lucy but this is all I can tell you. But i will say if you visit the Kozen you will find out a secret that we have been hiding. You will either be upset or happy. You are bit unpredictable like that. I also give my blessing for you to date that pink haired boy Natsu. That chemistry between you to is obvious. Well i better go. Goodbye Lucky Lucy. I love you.
From Father xo'
Lucy grips the letter crying. Her father really did care about her. He even went as far to buy back the kozen and estate so she was set and didn't have worry about money. But why did he think that she was interested in Natsu. Lucy sobs as she watches Natsu jump on her window sill next to her bed. "Hey Lucy! Wait why are you crying Lucy?" Natsu asks confused looking at the crying Lucy. Lucy wipes her tears away. "Natsu haven't you ever heard of knocking! Or even a front door!" Lucy yells. "Well i didn't expect walking in on you crying. So why were you crying Lucy?" Natsu asks as he jumps from the window to the bed making Lucy bounce. "Whats that paper?" Natsu asks. "Its the reason I was crying" Lucy admits. "If it makes you sad want me to burn it?" Natsu asks as he burns one of his hands. "No you aren't not getting near it you pyro! The letter is the last letter my father left me. It tells me he is sorry and that he bought back the estate and Kozen. Telling me I inherited it all. And that I need to visit the estate before I decide what to do with everything" Lucy says as she looks down clutching her skirt with both hands. Natsu grabs Lucy's hand. "Well then let's go. Let's go to your estate Lucy. You don't have to go alone. I will be with you" Natsu says smiling as he jumps up. "I don't know if I want to go" Lucy admits looking at Natsu with tears. "Lucy lets just check it out. And see why your father wanted you to visit the estate" Natsu says and pulls Lucy to her feet. "Natsu why do you want to visit the estate so much?" Lucy asks looking confused. Natsu with his right hand wipes the tears from Lucy's cheek. "Because i don't like watching you cry Lucy" Natsu says staring in Lucy's eyes. Lucy looks away with a small smile then looks into Natsu's eyes. "Sure we can go. Just give me 15 minutes to get my stuff ready" Lucy says softly. "Sure no problem." Natsu says with a big grin. "Random question where is happy?" Lucy asks looking for the annoying blue cat. "Happy is with Charle on mission with Wendy as well" Natsu says. "Don't you want to wait for happy? Or at least tell him where you are going?" Lucy asks. "He will be fine Lucy. I will just tell Mira you and I going on a mission and to get it kept quite don't want that ice freak to come with us" Natsu says while he watches Lucy run around grabbing things and stuffing them in a backpack. "Do you really think you need all that? Or that we will be gone that long?" Natsu asks confused to see Lucy with huge overstuffed backpack. "You can never be to prepared" Lucy says as she puts the backpack on her back and grabs her whip and keys attaching them to her belt. "When we come back can we try and find Aquarius?" Lucy asks softly with pain wanting her first friend back. "Of course we can find her. I miss the grumpy fish lady anyway" Natsu says grinning rubbing the back of his neck. Lucy giggles at his comment. Natsu and Lucy are finally heading back to the Heartfilila estate.
