Yo! 247FairyTail here!
My other story Only Time Can Tell is coming to an end, so I decided to start a new one!
This story takes place in an age in which there are castles, kings, queens, knights, dragons... and magic?
One Twisted Story ~ Chapter 1:
-Summary:
A story in which Gray is supposed to marry Lucy, but Lucy loves Natsu. Natsu is Lucy's best friend, but Gray's best man. Erza is the knight of Lucy, while Jellal is the king. So when Natsu makes up his mind to run away with Lucy, two things happen. Juvia helps them escape, and they travel with wanted criminals, Gajeel and Levy. Although there is more to this story then just castles and kings. There is also magic and dragons. And soon Natsu and Lucy will find out the part they play in all of this.
"You are to be wed the day after tomorrow. Aren't you excited?"
"Yes, father."
"Imagine once you marry the king's son! We will be raised even higher in the ranks!"
"I understand."
"Although I find it weird, the son of the king isn't even his son. Lucy, you must do whatever it takes to support this family."
The wind blew her locks away from her face. She shivered, it was past winter so why hasn't it got any warmer? She looked over the soft roses and daisies dancing among the sky. A pale blue flower found its way to her hair and she frowned, leaning on the railing.
"On a day so beautiful, why must I be wed to someone I do not love?" Her life was just not fair. Her dress casually fluttered when she turned.
"Lucy." His caring face captured the glow of the sunset. His sensationally pink hair wavered in the wind, showing off his forehead and his ever so slightly green-onyx eyes. "Come here."
"Natsu." She breathed and fell into his embrace. He wrapped his arms around her and rested his head on her shoulder.
"I can't stand watching you do this to yourself."
"I have no choice. This will give my family more happiness."
"What about your happiness?" He gently pushed her back enough to see her face. His eyebrows knitted together and he bit his lip.
"As long as you are in my life I will always have happiness." She put my hand on his cheek and he nuzzled into it.
"That's not fair Lucy. Why must you be so loyal and compassionate."
"Can't I ask you the same?"
"If only I could help you." She pushed his arms away and took a step back, turning away from him.
"Then why don't you?" His eyes widened and he gasped.
"What are you suggesting?" He asked fearful. She turned back to face him, and with all seriousness she began to speak.
"Let's run away! On the night of the wedding I say we make a break for it and never look back."
"Lucy, we know we can't-"
"I know! It's ridiculous! But think about it, everyone will be busy and concerned with there own preparations to notice if we slip away." She stepped forward and grasped his hands. "Promise me you will think about it." His face softened once more.
"I don't know if that is such a good idea."
"Natsu!" He flinched. "Do you wish for me to be wed to Gray as well? Are you following through with my father's wishes?" He slipped his hands through my grasp and stepped back.
"Don't ask me something so absurd! You know I don't want you to go through with this!" He turned and walked back inside. Her face fell to the floor.
"So even you can give me no faith."
"Lucy, dear. Are you ready for the wedding?" The sweat voice of Mira echoed throughout the room.
"Oh don't pester her Mira! You know how she really feels!" Cana slurred in her drunken state.
"Cana!" I screeched. "No more of that!" Mira took the glass of wine away from her. Cana reached out for it but Mira slapped her hands away.
"Hello." Juvia stepped into the room. "Juvia just wanted to check on the bride-to-be. After all Juvia wants to make sure Gray-sama's wedding is perfect even if she isn't the one he is marrying!" She glared at me. Mira and Cana stepped in front of me.
"Lay off Juvia, Lucy doesn't even want this." Cana defended.
"She doesn't want it, eh?" Juvia smirked and exited the room. "Then Juvia will be waiting. Juvia will see Lucy soon." And with that said she disappeared behind the corner.
The day of the wedding came faster then anyone anticipated. Natsu spend the remainder of the time locked up in his chambers, thinking. Lucy didn't get any sleep and broke down crying in the middle of the night. Juvia had spent the time reminiscing about the events to unfold by Gray's side. Mira and Cana prayed happiness for their friend. Lucy's father greeted everyone with kindness and awaited the fateful day with much greed. And Gray had helped for the preparations.
So now, Lucy sat in her chambers, wedding gown on and much despair on her face. She met the day in fear, screaming herself awake and no one there to comfort her. Not even Natsu...
"Lucy, he's ready for you." She stood and placed the veil over her face. Walking out the door she spotted the doors that will begin her new life. She was just about to call out to her dad, but Natsu grabbed her arm and pulled her around the corner.
"Natsu! What are you doing here."
"I'm sorry! I thought about it okay?"
"You what-"
"Let's go! Right now! Just you and me."
"Just us? Right now?'
"Yes Lucy, look I don't know how long it will take until I can love you completely, but if you are willing to wait, I will give you all of me. I just- I need time."
"Natsu..." She sighed and gripped his hand. "Okay."
"Okay?"
"Yeah, I told you before, as long as you are in my life I am happy." They smiled at each other and he picked her up and threw her over his shoulder. "N-Natsu!"
"If I am taking you away, I have to do it right!" She screamed as he hoisted her higher up and ran.
Meanwhile in the church room everyone stood there with blank faces. "Where is the bride?"
"Natsu, they are catching up!" I screamed when a guard caught up to us. Natsu threw his fist back and punched him.
"Lucy! Natsu! This way!"
"Juvia?" We asked suspiciously, but trusted her anyway. She led us down a dark hallway and into a large room. She lit the candles along the edges of the walls and pointed.
"The exit is that way. Juvia will distract the guards. Go! Hurry!" Natsu didn't waste anytime running for the exit and pushing the door open. He stepped outside and gently put me down. I huffed and faced the other way as I brushed the dirt from my dress. Natsu grabbed the veil from my head and threw it against the wall. Then he grabbed the bottom portion of my dress and ripped it clean off, exposing my legs. I screamed and he covered my mouth with his hand.
"Shhh! They will hear you. I'm sorry but you can't run in a wedding dress." I sighed and he chuckled. "I never thought this would happen."
"Natsu promise me something." I turned to him and he took my hands.
"Hmm?"
"Promise me we will go on lots of adventures."
"I promise."
Yeah so end of Chapter one, so tell me, should I continue this story or delete it?
I would love it if you could leave a review and tell me if you liked/hated it.
I mean, how am I supposed to improve if I don't know what i'm doing wrong? :3
Also favorite/follow if you want more.
I will introduce Erza, Jellal, Gajeel, and Levy in the next Chappie! (If you want me to continue.)
But for now, have a nice day/night!
