Hello Fairy Tail lovers! This is my very first fanfiction, so please go easy on me! I shall respect contructive criticism and appreciate comments! Hope you all enjoy this nalu story! Thankyou!
Background of Lucy Heartfilia- a kickass hardcore teenage girl who is on top of everything she does. She get's the highest grades and seeks justice in every way possible-catches criminals, stop burglars, even takes down dangerous murderous people. At school, she gives bullies a taste of their own poison, resulting in being expelled. How is she so powerful? She has a deadly secret that hunts her. Because she moves from school to school, she doesn't have any close friends. Getting used to her unsettled life, she grew lonely and formed a cold heart, isolating everyone and everything in her way. She figured it would be better that way, she trusted no one. Well, at least not anymore.
"Ugh, another stupid school huh?" she questioned herself as she entered the gates to Fairy Tail High, also known as the magic school, where teachers there have magical powers and only very few students have them also. Students study and learn magic, while trying to find their own power. Each power is different for each individual.
Wanting to die, Lucy braced herself and continued walking towards the doors, where other students have just started to come through also. Before she reached the entrance, someone almost knocked her down by shoving through quickly. Fury enraged in her as she looked up to see who the sorry idiot was.
The guy had pinkish spiky hair, which actually looked kind of soft, but that wasn't the point. She had to give him payback. Plus, she thought it was awfully rude of him not even turning back to say sorry. She ran to catch up with him and grabbed his hair, pulling him backwards to hit the hard marble floor. Students who witness this gasped.
"Owwww! What was that for?!" the pink haired guy asked.
"Oh, I'm sorry, I didn't see you there," Lucy said in a disgustingly sweet voice. She wanted to make sure he knew she wasn't actually sorry.
She smirked at her comment, feeling satisfied and walked off to her first hour class.
Serves him right! she thought as she walked in.
It was the beginning of April; she just transferred here because she was last found beating up a jock (she was trying to help a nerd kid get away). She got expelled for the fiftieth time but she wasn't surprised because she was so used to it.
She walked into the class room, the teacher told her to sit next to a blue haired girl who was reading a book peacefully. As she took her seat, the girl noticed Lucy and turned to introduced herself.
"Welcome to Fairy Tail High," she said, "My name is Levy, hope to be friends with ya!" the young girl exclaimed.
"Hey, I'm Lucy, Lucy Heartfilia," Lucy already knew Levy was going to be a great friend. Especially since they shared something in common, having interest in books.
As they were about to start chatting, their teacher came in and hushed them.
Lucy was in the last class of the day, yet she felt quite tired and bored. Staring lamely out the window, she let her eyes rest as she held her face in her hand, slouching. Soon she felt into a deep dream, a dream that repeated itself over and over again-a nightmare.
Suddenly, Lucy jumped out of her seat, gasping for air. It didn't take her long to notice that she was still in class, now with everyone looking at her worriedly. Feeling embarrassed, she slowly sat back down while apologizing.
"I seriously had to get that dream during class?" she murmured quietly, almost inaudible.
Class finally ended, with that, Lucy rushed out of the room and started home. While walking along the streets, she passed a dark alley. She heard distinct shrieks from a girl. Lucy told herself before that she wouldn't interrupt other people's business. She couldn't afford to move again, even if she was from a rich family, she didn't want anything to do with her dad. Not after he remarried to a snotty hag who disgusted Lucy so much, Lucy had to get out of the house. The worst part was that her dad didn't even give a damn when she set out on her own. The thought made Lucy's eyes water, but she held them back forcefully.
Another shriek from the same girl in the alley made Lucy angry.
"Ugh, just once, Lucy. Just this once you can sock whoever is making that girl scared," she said to herself, getting fired up.
She turned back to the alley entrance, although it was dark, Lucy found a guy grasping the girl's wrists above her head against the brick red walls. He was saying something fierce to her under his breath and tightened his grip on her. Another scream from her, but in that second Lucy took a good punch to get him off her. The man tumbled to the ground as Lucy quickly took the girl out of the narrow space.
"Are you ok? Please run from here, I'll take care of everything else alright?" Lucy said hurriedly, she didn't want the guy to run away. He needs punishment, Lucy thought.
The trembling girl nodded in understanding and said a quick "thank you" before running off. Now that Lucy made sure the girl was safe, she had to deal with the crook.
Oh this guy is gonna pay, Lucy smiled devilishly as she ran through the alley aiming for her jump kick to smack his sorry face when he stood up. The guy took surprise in this sudden movement, but blocked her kick just in time. The man laughed childishly, and with that Lucy was really pissed off. She socked him in the stomach and heard him gulp in pain. She took him by the ear and pulled him out into the light so she could take a good look at his face.
"Hey what are you doing?!" the guy demanded with a very familiar, yet annoying voice Lucy has heard before.
She saw a head full of light pink hair with some strands covering the busted up face. A trickle of blood was stained on the corner of his mouth. It was the same guy who bumped into her earlier that day!
"How ironic, we meet again," she said evilly. "Well, let's get to the police station right now," she said, "cuz I've got stuff to do!" Lucy was a brainiac and always thought of finishing homework right after school, but she didn't want to show that side to this guy.
She was about to drag him along, when he resisted.
"Wait! I didn't do anything! Stop pulling!"
She stopped sharply and turned to face him, her eyes glaring.
"Really now? What was that all about then?!" She hated anyone who'd hurt a girl. Flashes of terrible memories flew through her mind, and she started to get dizzy.
"Let me go and I'll tell you!" He shoved off and stepped back a bit and Lucy let him.
"For a long time now, I've been trying to find someone who's important to me, who disappeared without a trace. And I heard that girl had seen him," he said, his eyes filled with sadness.
"How do you know it's the same person?" Lucy snarled back.
"Well, actually to be honest, it's not a person. It's a dragon."
After Lucy heard this, she felt an electric shock run through her body as fear flooded her heart. She took a step back, and then turned to run home.
It's past midnight, yet Lucy can't fall asleep in her comfy bed.
"You're weak, Lucy," she said in the pure darkness of her room. "How are you supposed to kill that dragon if you get so shaken just hearing 'dragon'?
"Training, more training, I need more chicara(power)," she repeated as she tried once more to get some rest.
