Name: Kindness.

Fandom: Fairy Tail.

I do not own Fairy Tail.

If I did, Juvia would get Gray and they'd be on their 34th child already.

How long had it been?

How long had it been since she last saw other people?

It must have been over two weeks now. No other person who had seen other people would feel this lonely. The crippling void in her heart, right in the middle of her chest.

She had been walking for days on end, looking to find a purpose; any purpose. She felt lost and alone, she didn't know what to do. The hot landscape around her had no sign of live, just the occasional tumbleweed travelling across her path. Even then, it made her happy that the tumbleweeds didn't leave her and she wasn't always alone. She tilted her head, looking up to the clear blue sky. The white fluffy clouds were nowhere to be seen, just the clear blue sky in front of her. The giant orb in the middle of the sky beamed brightly, almost scorching her corneas. She moved her hand over her face, covering the sun with her palm. She turned around and began walking up the dirt trail ahead of her. With every step she took, a small dirt cloud erupted from under her black sandal; bursting into the air and getting larger the more she walked. Her dull gray eyes looked at the cloud, her lips formed into a smile and she took a breath of the air. She timed the large breath wrongly as she took a massive inhale of the dust that surrounded her. She began hacking immediately, coughing very violently as she tried very hard to get all the dirt out of her lungs. Her smile never left her lips whilst she was coughing.

She began jumping up and down on the spot, trying desperately to gather fresh air. The more her black sandals collided with the dry ground, the more the dust clouds began to gather. She realized this and widened her eyes, quickly turning around and running off north. The more she ran, the more fresh air got into her lungs. She gasped for fresh air, the air travelling down to her lungs and expanding into every little corner of her lungs. She savored every little second of the fresh air in her lungs. She slouched down, placing her hands on to her knees and taking deep breaths. She eventually got herself back to normal, her heart rate slowed down to a suitable rate and her breathing returned properly.

Standing up back properly, she began to feel light headed as she looked ahead of her. Seeing the outlines of a city in front of her, with trees and a people right ahead in the distance. Her lower lip parted as she looked amazed. Her eyes widened whilst she brought her left hand to her face, the side of her hand resting on her eyebrow. She blinked once. Still seeing it was there, she blinked again. The city was still there. She blinked again and seen the same results. Her face lit up with joy as she continued to stare at the city. It was a real city, it wasn't a hallucination! It had buildings and water and vegetation and people and water! She took no time in breaking into a sprint, no matter how tired she was she was going into this city and she was going to make friends and she was going to become popular! but mainly friends.

The feeling of the fresh air running through her hair made her close her eyes as she kept up the fast pace that was in. The dust clouds behind her gathered quickly before vanishing into nothing. The dead ground that was nothing just dried mud that had no life to it soon turned into lush greenery with gorgeous flowers popping out of the green ground. Gorgeous flowers with purple petals, some with beautiful pink and even some with white petals! The flat ground soon turned into a slope, making her feel very tired as she continued her fast sprint up the green scenery. At the corner of her eye, she could see a building in the middle of the hills; just sitting there with chickens running across the front porch of the building. The girl winced as she looked at the horrible exterior and quickly narrowed it down that no one would want to be there but still, her interest was peaked. She slowed down her run and began walking over to the building slowly. She raised her head, looking at the great wooden sign above the door that looked hand made.

"Lairy Tall?"The girl spoke to herself, looking at the very odd board. She thought nothing of it and placed her hand on top of the door, slowly pushing it open. As she pushed it open, she was greeted with the sight of an old-aged pub. She winced once again, seeing only a handful of people in there. One of the folk was a small kid with a weird scarf wrapped around his waist, his barely even toned stomach on show and a weird ass attitude that resembled one with a fire launched up his behind.

She kept quiet, waiting for someone to at least say something on her arrival. Nothing. She couldn't pluck up the courage to say something, if they noticed her that that means that they want to be friends! She clenched her fists as she thought this, her lips curved into a smile and her cheeks flushed red. No one said anything, they were all too busy socialising. She sighed quietly, turning around and leaving the pub a little disappointed in herself for not being able to make friends.

She walked across the cobblestones, her head hung in defeat. She walked continuously down hills, up hills until her black sandal clicked as it reached a new terrain that wasn't grass. She tilted her head and looked up at the grand building. The beautiful architecture, along with a giant horse head standing right in the middle of the building; almost like a gargoyle. The beauty of the building took her breath away and she slowly walked into the building, being greeted with all eyes on her. The twinkling of everyone's eyes made her cheeks tinge pink, whilst her own sparkled whilst she looked around. She took a step forward into the building, her lips curved into an innocent smile. As she took a step forward into the guild hall, a man came out of the bar area; flinging his hands in the air. His long white dress came past his ankles, leaving a small trail of the white fabric behind him as he walked. His bright purple lipstick would make anyone wince, but she didn't. She found comfort in his appearance, he didn't seem dangerous at all. He seemed like someone she could go to when she was lonely, or when she was in dire need of assistance.

"And who is this lovely girl who just walked into my guild hall?!" He spoke loudly, a smile growing on his face whilst he spoke to her.

Her eyes widened as she heard this, slowly beginning to panic. "I'm sorry, I'll leave!" She quickly turned on her heel, only to be grabbed by her forearm and twisted back into an embrace.

"You don't have to leave!" He spoke with his loud voice whilst snuggled his head beside hers. His large monk like bald spot on the top of his head reflected the light as though it was a freshly waxed turtle shell. Her flowing blue hair began to get tangled as he continued to snuggle his head left and right. "Are you looking to join?"

"Join?" She questioned him whilst pulling away from him so she could see him properly. "What do you mean?"

"Oh, you don't know?~" He smiled at her kindly,"We're blue pegasus, a guild for mages."

"Mages.. That must mean people are here too?!" She quickly spoke with a loud voice, making heads turn around the guild hall.

The man laughed and nodded, "Yes, would you like to join blue pegasus?"

She moved clenched her fists and brought her hands just in front of her chest, "Can I please?!" Her voice full of enthusiasm.

"First- What's your name?" He asked with a calm voice, almost lovingly towards her.

"It's Peyel, Megumi Peyel." She answered sheepishly, her eyes almost on the brink of tears.

"Welcome home, Megumi."

"I'm home.."She spoke with a cracked voice, her tears breaking past her eyelids and flooding on to her cheeks. "I'm home….." No matter how many times she said that she was home, she didn't feel at home.

A/N:

I thank you for reading Kindness. I had always imagined Megumi in my head, but after a sleepless night I came up with a story

that I would actually enjoy writing.

I'd love to hear all of your opinions on Kindness.

Reviews are what strives me to continue writing and I'll take any sort of review into consideration.

Chapter 2 is in the process of being written.
