Chapter 1: A Normal School Day


Lucy's POV

"Ha! You call that a punch Stripper? You punch like a sissy!" Natsu taunted. Gray scowled at the pink haired frenemy of his. Gray delivered a powerful blow to Natsu's stomach proving his strength.

"What do you call that Tobacco Freak!" Gray said triumphantly at the feat

'Ouch' I thought as I cringed at the force of the punch. Natsu delivered a punch of his own on Gray's left cheek with a bruise already forming.

'These two will never change' I thought while letting a long sigh.

Hi there, my name is Lucy Heartfilia, I am currently 17 years old and I had just recently joined Fairy Tail Academy 7 months ago. I am the co-captain of the cheerleading squad of this school. I really like read and I would really like to become an author someday in the future. Anyway, this school is full of weird but interesting people. But, I really enjoy going to this school since everyday here is a different day. I made some new friends as well.

One of these people is Natsu Dragneel, one of my best friends. Natsu is 18 years old, he has pink messy, spiked up hair with a face splitting smile that lights up the whole school and is the captain of the basketball team and the most popular boy in the school. He has a blue cat called Happy and a sister called Wendy. His father is Igneel Dragneel and his mother is Grandeeney Dragneel. The first time I met him was when I first moved into Magnolia Town, a gang ganged up against me trying to rape me, then all of the sudden a pink haired boy comes and saves me. He introduced him self to me and I introduced myself to him. Then after that I met him when I went to Fairy Tail Academy and met up with him again. Then after a month, we started to hang out more and became closer. He sometimes, and by 'sometimes' I mean always at my house after school.

The guy that Natsu is currently fighting is Gray Fullbuster, the captain of the soccer team. Natsu and Gray are always constantly fighting. Those two are frenenemies, but they are sort of brothers. Gray has this 'stripping' habit. He told me he got it from his mom, Ur…Erza is usually is the one who stops their fights. I stop their fights sometimes if Erza's not around or when I'm not in a good mood. I won't hesitate to give them a nice hard 'Lucy Kick!' to their groins.

"ARE YOU TWO FIGHTING AGAIN?!" the voice of a furious scarlet haired woman called out.

Speaking of Erza there she is. Erza Scarlet or as Titania as some people call her that she's a strict levelheaded woman and a friend of mine. She is the student body president of the school and keeps everyone in order. Since no one wants to face her wrath everyone reluctantly listens to her without hesitation and Erza can by pretty scary al times but inside she could be caring and sympathetic. She has a boyfriend named Jellal Fernandez; they were child hood friends whose feelings developed over the years. And Erza really loves cake, specifically Strawberry cake and if its one thing you have to know it's never, ever! Mess with Erza's cake.

Natsu and Gray visibly stiffed at the bellowing voice of the scarlet haired woman. Large footsteps echoed across the hallways as the scarlet woman edged closer to the bickering duo. Everyone stopped what he or she was doing as the Titania passed by and watched as she walked slowly to the trembling 'frenemies'.

"A-a-ah, Erza! Were not f-fighting! We're j-j-just ha-having a friendly conversation 'cause that's what best friends do!" Gray said nervously as he slung an arm over Natsu's shoulders with beads of sweat rolling down his body. Natsu did the same and shouted out.

"A-aye!"

Erza looked at the duo before nodding at them not noticing the sigh of relief under their breaths. "Good, to see you two getting along" Erza said towards the duo sternly. Before turning to me with a warm smile and saying

"Good Morning Lucy, how are you?"

"Good morning to you too, Erza. I'm fine. I was just heading down to the cafeteria " I replied smiling at her

"Let me accompany you" Erza said returning the smile while accompanying me to the cafeteria with Gray and Natsu silently glaring at each other behind, having been separated from each other.

Once we reached the cafeteria, Erza made a beeline for the strawberry cake that was displayed, pushing anyone out of her way, rather forcefully. I looked around for my blue haired bookworm friend. Then I found her sitting on a table reading a book with Gajeel munching on food.

"Levy-chan!" I called out making my way towards her, Levy jumped in her seat in surprise before looking at who called out for her. Seeing that it was her fellow bookworm friend she replied with a "Lu-chan!"

Levy Mcgarden, she's a short blue haired girl and is a bookworm like me and she is also my best friend. I first met Levy when I bumped into her in the Library when we were looking for the same book. Levy and I started talking about our favorite books and authors. It seemed that we had a lot in common and then we became best friends every since. She has feelings for a certain messy black haired male A.K.A Gajeel. Even that she won't admit it.

Gajeel is a friend but rival of Natsu and a member of the football team; he used to go to our rival school, Phantom High. But, after a fight between these two schools 4 months ago he decided to transfer here along with his friend Juvia. I think he has feelings for the blue haired bookworm. Just so you know I think Mira has already started planning their wedding plans.

"Ohayou, Everyone!" A feminine voice called out. A white haired beauty wearing a white shirt and gray skirt, white knee high socks and black school shoes like everyone in the school, unless you're wearing a yellow sleeveless jumper like most pupils here, entered the cafeteria catching the attention of almost everyone in the room. Well, speak of the devil or…er...'demon'. And there she is! Ladies and Gentlemen, here she is… Mirajane Strauss and her partners in crime Lisanna Strauss and Elfman Strauss! Mirajane is the matchmaker of this school. She targets her next 'projects' and her most recent project was Alzack and Bisca and she got them two together a month ago. How she got them together? No one knows, Alzack and Bisca knows but every time we ask them they don't tell us

'…I wonder if it's that bad…' I thought

Lisanna Strauss, the sister of Mirajane and assistant of the matchmaking business. She is the captain of the cheerleading squad and childhood friend of Natsu. Mira says that she likes Laxus. But who knows…well apparently, Mira knows.

Elfman Strauss, elder brother of Lisanna, younger brother of Mirajane. Elfman is a white haired bulky man. Elfman shouts 'Man!' all the time. Mira thinks he likes Evergreen and I quote ' Elfman likes Evergreen!' Mira's words not mine.

"Ah Lucy!" Mira said walking over to Levy and me with a knowing smile on her face.

" How are things between you and Natsu?"

"Eh? What are you talking about?" I asked. Mirajane opened her mouth to answer. However, was interrupted by a flying piece of cake. Mirajane ducked successfully dodging the cake. The cake hit Elfman on the face. Wiping the cream off his face he glared at Natsu and Grey, who threw the cake and said.

"That's not how to throw like a man! This is how to throw like a man!". Elfman picked up the remaining pieces of cake and threw it at the duo. Natsu and Grey ducked, dodging the flying piece of cake and hitting another student. The student reacted by starting a food fight.

I sighed as a peaceful morning had turned into a wreaking havoc.

"I can never have a moment of peace and quiet, can I?" I said sighing and dodging flying pieces of food thrown be various people.

"Well Lucy-san, if you want peace and quiet. This isn't the place for it" Lisanna said giggling at her schoolmate's antics and also ducking to avoid a flying piece of food. I felt a dark aura course throughout the cafeteria. The student's bodies stiffened as the felt the dark aura. I looked at the source of the deadly aura only to find Erza with a deadly glare, as well as cream on her face and uniform, glaring at the two who started the food fight, Grey and Natsu. Erza stomped her way over to the duo. Grey and Natsu trembled holding each over looking at Erza with frightened eyes as she may her way towards them. The scarlet haired woman grabbed their collars and bashed their heads against each other knocking them unconscious. Erza then took out her wrath on everyone who participated in the food fight.

Yup, it was just a normal school day in Fairy Tail Academy.
