It also contains a lot of a Lucy, Sting and Rogue brotp, please look forward to that.
Please review a lot, I'm really going to need your support for this :D
Well, I hope you enjoy! ^^
"Hey, Sis! Stop painting your face, you're gonna be late for school!", Sting teased his sister Lucy, who was younger by a year.
"Oh, shut up!", Lucy yelled back at her brother who was standing by the door, waiting. "It's called makeup, okay? Not paint!"
"You sure? Looks like paint to me." Sting watched Lucy apply some lip gloss.
Lucy let out an exasperated sigh as she finished her morning routine and bent down to pick up her bag – which wasn't there. Sting just laughed. Lucy looked up from where her schoolbag should have been, only to find Sing holding it along with his own.
Lucy let out another sigh as she started walking towards the door. It was the same thing every morning, and Lucy was quite sure it wouldn't change anytime soon.
So, as always, she held out a hand, demanding, "Give me my bag, Sting."
"Nope", he grinned, opening the door and slipping outside with a childish laugh, leaving it to Lucy to lock the front door of the small cottage behind them.
"Stiiiing!", she shouted, running after him. "Give it back already!"
Really, she couldn't believe him. Even though he was supposed to be the older one, he acted like a little kid sometimes.
As if to confirm her thoughts, he started laughing like a maniac, racing down the street to school. She only managed to catch up to him at the school gates, where he was already conversing happily with his best friend, Rogue.
Lucy couldn't help but smile when she looked at them. Sting and Rogue had known each other since birth, sticking together like twins of sorts. Lucy had grown up together with both of them, Rogue had always been an older brother to her. He'd stuck with them through everything, all of them loosing their parents in the same accident only strengthening the bonds between them.
"Here."
Lucy was snapped out of her thoughts when Sting practically shoved her schoolbag in her face – Lucy snatched it from him hastily after staring blankly for two seconds, as if fearing he would pull it back.
"Whoa there", Sting laughed, clearly amused. "Don't go spacing out now, princess. You're gonna be late for class."
Lucy felt annoyance rising up inside her at the nickname, being reminded of the orange-haired, somewhat obnoxious and flirtatious guy who would call her that every time he saw her.
On cue, she heard a voice purr from behind her, "Why, you look absolutely stunning today as well, princess."
She let out another sigh as she turned towards the male standing behind her, shortly wondering if sighing that much was even healthy, because she was doing it a lot – to be greeted by the sight of seemingly sparkling eyes looking down at her through the dark glasses that never seemed to leave their place on his – admittedly – handsome face.
"What do you want, Loke?"
"Well", he smirked in a way that only seemed to emphasize the obnoxious part, "I was wondering if I would be given the honor of escorting this beautiful lady to class?"
She needed a moment to process what he said – 'geez, why does he have to talk in such a complicated and irritating way' – but before she could say anything, a loud ding dong was heard on the school grounds, and soon there was an announcement made through the speakers all over school.
"The presence of all students is requested in the gym in ten minutes for a meeting. I repeat, all students are to be found inside the gym in ten minutes, nabura." The voice of the principal resounded throughout the school.
"What was that about?", Sting asked, directed towards no one in general, but only gained shrugs and equally confused looks from the students surrounding them.
Lucy wondered the same thing. 'What could that be about?' Unannounced meetings weren't something that often happened, so she was genuinely curious as to what the occasion of this meeting was.
Ten minutes later, the whole student body was present in the gym. The school was very small, with little over 100 students, so it wasn't even crowded.
"Lu-chan!", Lucy heard a high-pitched voice call out to her. She turned from side to side until she registered a flash of blue running towards her through the groups of students. She didn't have time to react as a petite, blue haired girl crashed into her at full speed, enveloping her in a tight hug.
Lucy would have laughed, but seeing as she was deprived of air due to the life still being squeezed out of her, she settled with a bright smile.
"Hey, Levy-chan", the blonde said as she was finally released.
Levy looked up at her with her hazel eyes, a sweet grin lighting up her face. "Sorry about that, Lu-chan", she giggled.
"No worries", Lucy said, giggling along with her.
"So, do you know what's going on here?", Levy asked, though Lucy knew she wasn't really expecting her to know.
Lucy only grimaced, fully living up to Levy's expectations. Levy laughed.
They quieted down together with the other students as the principal walked up front, positioning himself behind the microphone that had been set up a few minutes prior.
"My dear students", he started, letting his eyes roam around, scanning the small student body. "Today, there is something very nabura your teachers and I need to announce."
Nobody even batted an eye at the principal's strange way of speaking, they were all used to it.
"As you all know, we are a very small school. We have been able to survive because of donations and the continuous support of the city."
He paused, the eyes of every person present on him, listening intently.
"But today", he resumed, "I have to sadly admit that we are no longer able to carry on. By the end of this week, our nabura school, Cait Shelter, will have to close down."
A few seconds of shocked silence followed. Then a murmur started spreading throughout the gym, soon becoming a loud buzzing as everybody spoke at once.
"I can't believe it", a small girl with dark blue hair standing near her said so quietly that Lucy almost didn't hear it. She looked incredibly lost, not knowing how to react to the situation.
Lucy knew her, which wasn't a surprise since practically everybody knew each other in this small school. Her name was Wendy Marvell, a freshman, a grade lower than Lucy, and was known because she had skipped some grades because of how smart she was. She was a freshman at an age of mere thirteen years.
Lucy was about to say something to comfort her, but directed her attention back to the front as the principal cleared his throat.
"Luckily", the principal said, making sure everybody was listening, "our very nabura partner schools, Blue Pegasus, Lamia Scale and Fairy Tail, have agreed to split our student body among them and help you settle in by letting you stay in their respective dorms for free for two months. After this meeting, all of you will head straight for homeroom, where your teachers will hand out a form.
You can rank the three schools in first, second, and third choice. We will arrange it so each of you gets your first or second nabura choice of school."
The Principal stepped away from the microphone and headed outside together with the teachers.
"Does everybody have a form?", Lucy and Levy's homeroom teacher asked.
Nodding shortly at the stretched out "yeeeees" coming from his students, he continued.
"You will have to hand this form in by Wednesday, in two days. On Friday there will be another speech by the principal as well as the announcement of your respective new schools. Second period today will be free period for everyone, seeing how the whole school is still in shock, but make sure to be on time for third period. Understood?"
Another "yeeeees" resounded through the classroom, accompanied by shuffling and the sound of chairs dragging across the floor.
Lucy headed outside with everyone else, Levy babbling like a waterfall beside her.
"– this is just all so sudden and I really don't know what to think because I've never really thought of this happening and I'm just really confused and I seriously don't know what to think anymore and just- LU-CHAN, WHAT SCHOOL ARE YOU GOING TO TRANSFER TO?!"
She jumped at Levy's sudden shouting before thinking over what she had just said.
'Yeah', she asked herself, 'Where am I going to head from here on?'
So, how'd you like it? :)
Please review! :D
