" Is this going to take long Jellal? " asked the young celestial spirit mage Lucy Heartfillia. She was trudging up a huge mountain with Crime Sorciere.

" Yeesh, be quiet you're lucky we brought you in after Natsu kicked yo-" Ultear couldn't finish because Jellal put his hands over her mouth.

" Sorry Lucy-chan, she has a really big mouth, please forgive her, " a young pink long haired girl, Meldy, bowed to Lucy.

" I-It's okay..! " Lucy said while smiling to Utear and Meldy.

It was 2 months after Natsu kicked Lucy out of Team Natsu, she still doesn't really know why… Shall I explain? ( too bad, you don't have a choice. )

FLASHBACK

" Lucy! " Her best friend Natsu Dragneel came walking towards her, with Lisanna holding hands.

" Yes what is it Natsu? " asked Lucy, she might have liked Natsu a bit… But she was still happy that he found someone he likes, "not like she's really nice to me"…thought Lucy.

LUCY"S FLASHBACK

" Hi Lucy, remember that Natsu is my boyfriend so stay away okay? " Lisanna has been saying that to every girl member that she thinks might like Natsu. This time it was to me. She walked away slugging my arm with her, making me fall down.

END OF LUCY'S FLASHBACK ( BACK TO NORMAL FLASHBACK ) ( NOW LUCY'S POV )

" Lucy, I heard from Macarov you were going to train to get stronger? " Natsu asked. I nodded and wave a hand for him to continue.

" So, since you are going to train… You probably need to do it alone…. So I was wondering, if Lisanna can fill your spot… " I was both shock and humiliated . Why would he say something like that to me? I saw Lisanna smirking in the corner, I wonder why Gray, Erza and Happy weren't here, they were obviously part of Team Natsu too.

" Uh… So you want me to leave this team? " I asked, I felt the tears ready to drop from my eyes.

" Yah! Would you? I would like to put Lisanna back in the team… Thanks again Lucy! Bye! " Natsu said walking off with Lisanna, before they left Lisanna gave me a giant smirk and said

" He's mine "

END OF FLASHBACK STILL LUCY'S POV

Sigh… I wonder why I'm thinking about this, is it because I missed them? Or was it just because Ultear mentioned it? I don't know…

" Lucy please forgive Ultear, she seems like she's not nice, but she is really sweet, " said Jellal.

" Don't worry! I'm not mad at Ultear! " I waved and smiled at Ultear which was getting a lecture from Meldy about being nicer to people's feelings, she blushed a little bit, " I guess she doesn't get a smile usually…

I'm probably over reacting, but if I didn't get kicked out of the team I wouldn't have join Crime Sorciere so in a way… I'm kinda happy, I made new friends and a new family.

" Jellal, Meldy, Ultear… Thanks again for letting me join Crime Sorciere! " I looked up and smiled brightly

To the young trio.

" Y-you're welcome, " stammered Meldy and Jellal.

" W-whatever…, " Ultear said sounding like she didn't care, although I saw her blush a little bit, she reminded me of Erza a little meaner but, still had that straight face always looking forward. She also has the same personality of never showing anyone when she's blushing. I wonder how's Fairy Tail doing?

FAIRY TAIL

It was still a noisy guild and everyone breaking something, a typical day at Fairy Tail…. Gray was stripping, Cana was drinking, Erza was giving death glares, yes a very typical day… Although Gray stripped less, Cana drank less, and Erza was just eating strawberry cake, it was a typical day… Without Lucy.

" Natsu! I found this good job that pays a lot! " Lisanna came running up to Natsu holding a flyer in her hand.

" What is it Lisanna? " Natsu asked, Natsu and Lisanna were themselves, actually more cheerful since Lucy left.

" It's this super good one! It pays 200,000 jewels! Want to come along with me? " Lisanna ask, hinting she wants to go with only him. At first, people thought they didn't care for Lucy since she disappeared, but thought after they're probably trying to act cheerful, nobody knew that Natsu and Lisanna were the ones that kicked out Lucy.

" Okay! Let's go Lisanna! " Natsu said quickly walking out of the guild grabbing Lisanna's arm.

" Natsu… he didn't even ask us if we wanted to go… " Happy said all depressed, Nnatsu has been acting like a jerk since Lucy left, he got more self centered and didn't thank anyone, all he would do is go somewhere with Lisanna.

" Don't worry Happy, if Natsu wants to be that way… Let him, " said Gray watching Natsu and Lisanna exit the guild. That stupid flame brain, thought Gray.

" C'mon Happy… Let's go on a mission with Erza, " said Gray.

" Aye sir! " Happy flew to the request board looking for a job.

" Na- I mean Gray and Lu- I mean Erza! I found job! " Happy flew over to Gray and Erza getting ready to leave, obviously… Erza had a gigantic amount of clothes, and they headed off.

BACK WITH CRIME SORCIERE ( Lucy's POV )

" No… It was here and we have to go North…"

" No Ultear.. It's this way… South! "

Jellal and Ultear were constantly bickering… I just smiled, they reminded me a lot like Natsu and Gray… " Wait…why did I just think about Gray and Natsu? I got to get Fairy Tail out of my mind!

" Um guys…Isn't it East? Aren't we suppose to go that way? " Meldy asked. It seemed like both Jellal and Ultear were holding the map the wrong way. I just chuckled at the sight of Jellal and Ultear trying to not look like they just made a complete fool of themselves… Yah… This is my new home… Crime Sorciere.

FLASHBACK LUCY'S POV

I ran home letting the tears from my eyes fall down my cheek, how did this happen? Why did he kick me out? WHY, WHY, WHY? That word was just always popping in my head.

Suddenly, three mysterious people with hoods approached me.

" Who are you guys? " `I asked wiping away my tears.

" Lucy… You do not need to hide your sadness… Just join us… " the one in the middle said to me.

" But I don not know you guys… " I said, the one in the middle sounded familiar…All three of the mysterious people took off their hood, I remembered the one instantly… Jellal? Than I saw the one that had long pink hair, she looked familiar… Wait, Meldy? The one that hurt Gray and fought Juvia? Why is she here and not at Grimore Heart? Than I saw one more… She had jet black hair and a ball shape orb in her hand… Ultear… Why is she here?

" Jellal, Meldy, Ultear… Why are you guys here? " I quickly asked.

" Here to protect you… Now come Lucy… Come to our team, Crime Sorciere! " Jellal said to me holding out his hand. I grabbed it and started crying again.

FLASH BACK OVER. ( Lucy POV )

" Hey Lucy… Why are you dozing off? " Jellal asked still blushing from the argument. I just smiled at Jellal, I quickly got up and hugged him, Ultear and Meldy, I whispered to each and everyone one of them.

" Thanks for saving my life… Crime Sorciere! "
