Levy's POV
(In the guild library)
Askua, Lucy and I were sitting in the guild's library, Lucy was frantically searching for a children's book, while I was talking with Askua trying to keep the bored 5 year old entertained, it was easier said than done. Normally Askua would be in bed, but today was Alzack and Bisca's 15th anniversary and they wanted to do something special, so they decided to go out for the night and leave Askua with me and Lucy, because let's face it, we were probably one of the few people that could be trusted with a child for hours.
Anyway, so apparently Bisca or Alzack always read Askua a story before bed, and she refused to go to sleep without it, and that's how Lucy and I ended up in the guild library at 10 o clock at night, with a half asleep toddler in my lap that was fighting to stay awake, and acting like a child, but I guess since she was a child you really couldn't blame her.
"I want a story now levy" Askua whined, "I'm so tired."
"Then why don't you go to sleep, I'm sure you will get a story tomorrow." I pleaded trying to get Askua to go to sleep. "Alzack and Bisca will kill me if she figures out that she was up this late," I thought to myself, she should have been asleep an hour ago.
"No I want a story now," Askua yelled.
"Lu-chan, have you found a story yet!" I yelled, hoping that she would have found something.
"Sorry Levy-chan, all the books here are thick novels, there's no children's stories." She yelled back, the ladder she was standing on tipping precariously.
I sighed, "Maybe I have some books back in my apartment" I thought.
"Wait," she yelled "I think I found something," she yelled climbing down the ladder. I turned around to see her holding a small thin book, labeled Walt Disney's book of Fairy tales.
She hands the book to me and I look at it curiously, "I've never seen this book before." I say, I have been through this library many times and I do not remember seeing any book like this.
"Does it really matter Levy-chan, you probably saw it and forgot about it or something, let's just read Askua a story, and then send her to bed. I'm actually quite tired as well." Lucy replied yawning.
"Fine," I said, but there was still something about this book that made me uneasy.
"Once upon a time, there was a girl named Cinderella, she had a wonderful life, her mom died when she was younger, but her dad loved her unconditionally. Unfortunately her dad married a widow with 2 daughters, who hated Cinderella…" I looked up 5 minutes later and saw that both Lucy and Askua had fallen into a deep sleep.
"Awwww," I said, they looked so peaceful.
I picked up Askua a put her on one of the small couches in the library, and draped a blanket over her. I walked back over to Lucy pondering what to do, I couldn't just leave her there. I heard a door slam open at the front of the library, I turned around to see Natsu along with Alzack and Bisca.
I put my finger to my lips, indicating that they should be quiet, but since Natsu obviously doesn't know the meaning of quiet he started yelling, "Hey Levy!"
"Solid script quiet," I chant and suddenly Natsu stops talking.
"Do you not know how to be quiet Natsu?" I ask, I have no idea how Lucy puts up with him all the time.
I sigh, "Anyways, Alzack, Bisca, Askua is sleeping on the couch over there."
"Thanks Levy, we owe you one" Alzack says, while carrying Askua out of the library.
"You're welcome, Have a good night." I reply.
Now what should I do with Lucy? I really don't want to wake her up, she was so tired before. I see Natsu out of the corner of my eye, and I get an idea.
"Hey Natsu, can you carry Lucy home, I don't want to wake her up."
"Sure Levy anything for my Luce," he replied gently picking her up princess style then leaving the library, as quietly as he could.
I swear those two need to start dating soon or else I will kill someone I thought as I started to pack up the library. I looked at the story book that I was reading to Askua, it still gives me a strange feeling, like some dark magic is at work. It's too late to do anything about it tonight, I thought sadly, I'll come back in the morning.
I turn off the lights and close the door completely un-aware of the magic about to unfold in the room.
No POV
(Back in the library)
Back in the library, strange things started to happen, the lights started flickering, and the books started flying. Suddenly the book that Levy was reading started to glow illuminating the dark room and the pages started to fly before settling on a blank page that had only 4 words, Once upon a time.
Suddenly the light intensified, so bright that it rivaled Sting's Holy Nova, and once it finally subsided 6 figures were left in the library, 6 people that would cause fairy tail quite a bit of trouble.
Okay I feel like it's important to say this but I'M NOT TRYING TO COPY ANYONE, I'm putting this here because i know that people will message me saying that this is extremely similar to another story. But i swear i am not trying to copy anyone this story will be extremely different than most of the fairy tale stories if you just wait a while. Okay Angel out.
