Hi Readers!

I am a new writer at and I'm really trying to make a good story here ( ^ _ ^ ). So please give me lots of reviews and comments about how I should make my story here better.

I don't own Fairy Tail!

With all my love,

Chapter 1; The Night it All Started

Lucy's POV

"See you later Mira! And thanks for the drink!"

"Bye Lucy! Have a good night!"

I tiredly walked back to my apartment with my keys and whip dangling on my hip. It was so cold that I slightly shivered as I walk home. Dang it, I really need to wear something more warm these days. I said to myself. When I reach my apartment, I expect a flying blue cat running towards me or a sight of a boy with a pink (or salmon he says) at my bed. Neither both of them are there though.

I sighed. It was so busy these days to get to talk to them or even greeted to each other. Natsu, Gray, Erza and Juvia had been going out of town to do special missions from Master Makarov. That time I was going out on a mission with Wendy and Charle, looking out for rare books to find and to give it back to the City Hall Library. When I got back they were already out for their super-secret-special mission I wasn't allowed to know.

Actually everybody in the guild wasn't allowed to know what the mission is. They have been out for about 2 months, and I've missed them already like it was 10 years! I know I supposed to be grateful that they are not here to bother me anymore but, it felt different without them bickering around the guild or the apartment. I checked the clock, it was 9.30.

Shit, I need to get a bath fast. I started to strip my clothes off and take a luscious bath with my vanilla bath gel. How I wish that Natsu and the other is here… I miss them so much! What would I do if they wouldn't come back forever? I was so desperate to meet them. So badly I wanted to hug them and say congratulations on your mission. What if they don't come back? What if...?

"Lucy-san! Please open the door!"

"Lu-chan! Please come open the door! We got something important to tell you!"

"HEY BUNNY GIRL, I'M KNOCKING THE DOOR OFF!"

*CRAAAAAAAASHHH*

NO MY DOOR! They've got to be kidding me! This something is supposed to be very important or I will be very mad! I quickly put my clothes back and walk to them, them is Levy, Wendy and Gajeel. with my precious door in his iron grip. I glanced at the clock, it was 9.30. Wait, what..?

"Lu-chan, we got something to tell you.." Levy said with a puddle of tear in her eyes.

I got a bad feeling about this.. "What is it?"

"Lucy-san.. Master told us that.."

"Natsu, Erza, Gray and Juvia is dead." Gajeel said with a huge burden in his voice.

What…? Huh..?

"ahahaha… you're kidding me right? Levy-chan.. this is all a joke right? Wendy.. Gajeel.. tell me this isn't true… They've got Erza, the most powerful female mage in Fairy Tail.. and Gray! And Juvia! And…" I stopped because tears are streaming down my face, "Natsu.. Natsu! NATSUUU!"

Normal POV.

The funeral for one of Fairy Tail's strongest tag team had brought depression and sadness all over Magnolia and off course Fairy Tail itself. The bodies of the team have never been found. So the funeral went on without their corpses. Master Makarov had been drinking throughout the night non-stop, Mirajane try to stop him from dunking himself in alcohol but with the loss of her ever best-friend Erza, she couldn't think straightly anymore and had been mourning every-time she thinks of here nakama.

As for Lucy… She's nowhere to be seen. At the guild or her house, at Natsu's house, or at the bookstore. Since everybody have been busy with them self, mourning with the loss of their nakamas, no one went to look for her. Only some people notice that Lucy has been missing out for 2 days since the news spread out.

"Levy-san, do you know where Lucy-san is?" Wendy asks to Levy.

"Wendy-chan, I don't know.." Levy said with red eyes, caused by too much crying, "She have been gone for 2 days now, without telling anybody.. I've try coming to her house but no one's there."

"Lucy-san…"

Lucy's POV

I ran out of town. Wanting that all has happened was just a dream. But I can't forget that Natsu has gone. My best friends are gone. There's no longer Erza who'd fight for a piece of cake, or Gray with his stripping habits, or Juvia with her antique habits of staring daggers at me… and Natsu with his strong grips and warm hugs. Silent tears are streaming down my cheeks. I've been crying non-stop for 2 days straight and when I talk only a dry croak would come out.

Taking all of my keys and several clothes, I challenged my body to walk to Mt. Hakobe. Without trains or magical vehicles. I decide that this is the best for me, because with lots of people crying around me at the guild, it would make me want to cry too. So with that on my mind, I set my goals to train. To train as hard as I can, to be the one who my friends will rely on, to be the one who the citizen of Magnolia count on.

And to be the one who greets Natsu when he comes home.
