Fairy tail Fan fiction
The time that we lost
Prologue
No one's POV
The sun shined radiantly in the sky above the town of Magnolia. Mornings were always a unique experience in Magnolia because no day would ever start the same way. The people greeted each other with smiles on their faces as they roamed the streets to do their daily business. One thing that sets Magnolia apart from the rest is the large guild hall known as Fairy Tail. The guild always made the days unique especially if you were a part of it, everyone knew that Fairy Tail was unpredictable. The residents of Magnolia still remember about the fire, that a certain rosy-haired mage, caused that destroyed a couple of blocks and a bit of forest. The guild master, Makarov, fainted that same day after the mayor came to present the fees for the damage. You would think that this unpredictability of Fairy Tail would be scary but the residents of Magnolia loved that trait of Fairy Tail. The people in Magnolia got ready for the day but one certain blonde mage still slept in her bed in her apartment.
Lucy opened her tired eyes as the sun's rays peered through the curtains in her apartment. She felt extremely tired this morning because of the struggle to come up with the next chapter in her novel. She spent the whole night staring at the blank page while chewing the entire pencil. Lucy closed her eyes after making contact with the sunlight, sighing she stared intently at her clock almost willing it to go back in time just to let her sleep some more.
"Ugh, I guess it's time to get up already…great." Lucy sulked, fully knowing that the battle was lost. She was about to climb out of her oh-so-comfortable bed when she noticed two arms around her waist.
"What the…" She stared at the arms with wide eyes.
Lucy slowly lowered the blanket to see the intruder only to see a sleeping Natsu holding her as if she was his lifeline. Looking at his sleepy state she noticed a small smile on his face. 'He looks so peaceful when he sleeps, like a lost puppy or maybe a dragon since he likes them so much' she giggled. 'He kinda looks cute when he's sleeping, WAIT….what am I thinking! He's gotta get the hell out of here!'
"Natsu…" Lucy whispered as she slowly started poking his body. She started lowering the blanket even more only to see a half naked Natsu holding her. Lucy started to blush a dark red like a certain requip mage's hair; she couldn't help herself from staring. She always knew he was fit but then again he was never this close to her, even if he did sneak into her bed many times when she wasn't looking and he was definitely never half naked in her bed!
"Natsu…" Lucy spoke louder and poked him with more force. "Hey it's time to wa- Hey!" Natsu's hold tightened as he turned around taking poor Lucy with him. She was underneath his lifeless body, unable to move from this awkward position.
"So… Heavy…" Lucy's face turned an even redder shade than before. She could practically feel his breath on her, her heart started to beat faster. To think that something like this would happen to her. 'Why do I always get in these situations?' she thought. Lucy found herself staring at his pink, or salmon as he calls it, hair.
'I kinda want to touch his hair…' Although she's touched his hair before because he always asked her to do it when he started getting motion sickness but this time she just wanted to rub it for no reason. Lucy moved her hand closer and closer to Natsu's hair until…
"Luce…" Natsu whispered into her ear.
At that moment Lucy froze, wide eyed she watched Natsu move his face above hers.
"Luce… What's for breakfast I'm starving!?" He looked at Lucy and gave her his signature toothy grin. "Hey? Luce? What's wrong? Why is your face so red? Are you feeling sick!? Natsu stared at her worriedly
Lucy, who was still shocked, just stared at him with wide eyes before her facial expression changed into one that would even make the powerful Erza run.
"Natsu…you…you…IDIOT!'
"OWWWWW!"
(ﾉ◕ヮ◕)ﾉ*:･ﾟ✧AT THE GUILD ✧ﾟ･: *ヽ(◕ヮ◕ヽ)
"Wow flame brain what happened to your face?" Gray stared at his beaten up rival with a grin on his face. Natsu sat opposite his rival by the table, slamming his head on the surface and sighing.
"Lucy's mad at me… I just asked her for some food is all" Natsu said dejectedly. He was used to Lucy's ultimate move, 'Lucy kick', but this one felt like it was meant to kill him.
"I doubt that" Gray rolled his eyes. Gray knew that sometimes Natsu didn't really understand the proper way of doing things. 'After all once an idiot always an idiot' Gray thought.
"Natsu! Your face, do you need some healing?" The little bluenette asked as she ran towards Natsu and Gray at the table.
"Don't overdo yourself Wendy. You know what happens when you heal too much." The white exceed, Carla, warned her best friend.
"I'll be fine, don't worry" Wendy smiled at her friend.
"Nah don't bother Wendy. His face has never looked better." Gray chuckled
"Yeah well at least I don't lose my clothes every ten seconds you stripper."
"Idiot"
"Asshole"
"Douche"
"Retard"
"Your clothes!"
"When did this happen!?"
"You wanna go flame brain!?"
"Anytime ice princess!"
The two boys started their daily brawl while their guild mates watched fully knowing the daily routine. Cana was sitting on a table, drinking another barrel to the brim while talking to Wakaba and Macao. They were making bets about who was going to get knocked out first. Wendy and Carla were sitting at a table talking to Panther Lily. Levy sat in the corner, lost in her new book while Gajeel sat next to her. He was eating some iron that Levy conjured up with her script magic. Juvia was watching (stalking) her ice prince from behind one of the pillars mumbling something about how Gray never brawls with her. Elfman continued to yell something about being manly while Lisanna tried to calm him down. The Thunder God Tribe were sitting in their usual spot talking amongst themselves while Laxus listened to Mavis knows what. Erza sat by the bar eating a rather large strawberry cake while Mira cleaned some glasses.
"Good morning Lucy!" The take-over mage said, averting her eyes from the glasses.
"Hi Mira… Can you please get me a strawberry milkshake? I really need one with the day I'm having." Lucy sighed as she sat next to Erza and her companion, the cake.
"Is anything troubling you Lucy?" The red haired requip mage inquired taking a brief second to look at her close friend's face.
"Me!? It's nothing! I'm fine really hahaha…" assured Lucy while turning her head away from Erza. Mira and Erza looked at each other, eyebrow raised.
"Ah, fighting with Natsu again I see" Mira giggled and placed Lucy's milkshake in front of her.
"Wait how'd you know!" Lucy stared with wide eyes at the giggling Mira.
"He keeps stealing glances at you while he's fighting with Gray." Mira squealed with stars in her eyes, pointing to the dragon slayer.
Levy walked towards Lucy and sat next to her by the bar. She could see that her blonde best friend was hiding something from them and her curiosity got the better of her. "What's wrong Lu?" Levy eyed her friend.
"It's nothing!" Lucy slammed her head on the bar's surface. The girls were laughing at her, tears coming from their eyes.
"Oh Lu it can't be that bad right?" Levy said, watching her friend closely. "What did he do? Sleep with you?" Levy giggled at her little joke wanting to see her friend's reaction."
"…"
"…"
"….."
"WHAT!?" The three girls said in unison watching Lucy's face rise in an instant, a dark shade of red. The girls were silent now, eyeing each other with wide eyes. Levy, Lucy and Erza's faces were becoming very red while Mira watched with stars in her eyes, lost in her own heaven of matchmaking.
"L-Lucy" Erza stuttered pointing at her friend, "You have to get married first before you….do...that thing."
"Oh my… I never thought that I would guess right" Levy stuck her head in her rather large book trying to hide her red face.
Mira was jumping up and down in excitement with her hands on her cheeks. "Pink hair and brown eyes… so cute!"
Lucy paled at their reactions. "What!? NO! We didn't do…uhm..t-that" Lucy stuttered twirling her hair in embarrassment. "I just woke up and he was there in my bed! He's done it before so I don't see why you guys are going on like this…"
"Wait…no babies?" Mira asked with disappointment all over her face.
"No!" Lucy covered her face with her hands "We aren't even dating or anything guys so that won't be happening."
"I still ship Nalu though" Mira muttered
"Wait what?" Lucy eyed Mira suspiciously
"CANA!" Mira shouted over the bar "I'd like to change my date for the Nalu bet!"
"Me too!" Levy chirped in.
"What bet are you guys talking about?" Lucy stared at them
"Oh it's just a bet the guild made about when you and Natsu would get together!" Mira clapped her hands
Lucy groaned and slammed her head once again on the bar's surface. "Cana! I need a drink!" Lucy shouted getting up from the stool and walked towards the drunkard.
"That em girl!"
─=≡Σ((( つ•̀ω•́)つ
Lucy looked in the direction of the ongoing brawl catching Natsu's eyes, when he met Lucy's eye he gave her a smile. Taking the opportunity Gray punched the dragon slayer right in the jaw, sending him towards the other side of the guild. Natsu got up with anger all over his face.
"That was a cheap shot Frosty, seems like that's the only way you can beat me."
"Only idiots get distracted during a fight flame brain. You're lucky I didn't even try." Gray grinned at his rival.
"Oh yeah, I'd like to see you dodge this!" Natsu yelled as he stood up, raising his hands above him. Fire started to surround his hands as a rather large fireball formed. Natsu threw the fireball straight at his rival.
Gray took his stance as the fire spell came towards him. "Ice make shield!" A large shield formed in front of Gray's hands. The shield had a special form almost like a snowflake that was large enough to completely protect Gray from Natsu's attack. The shield blocked the flames but a stray stream of fire launched at Erza and Lucy at the bar. As Erza turned around, plate in hand, to see what the idiots were up to the fire melted her cake. In an instant the entire guild turned silent. Natsu and Gray both paled, knowing what was to come. Erza was releasing a very scary (murderous) aura as she looked at her plate and at the two boys.
'So scary' Lucy thought to herself.
"The two of you have committed the greatest crime… Be prepared for your righteous punishment!" Erza yelled, summoning two dual swords.
"…what punishment?" The boys asked in unison, becoming paler by the second.
"Death…"
The two boys stared at each other and darted towards the guild doors with a pissed Erza tailing them.
"We're sorry! We're sorry! We're sorry!" They both screamed, running away from Erza.
"Come back here you cowards!"
Normally seeing her comrades in a life or death situations would cause Lucy to be worried or scared but after seeing the two boy's faces she couldn't help herself from laughing. Lucy clutched onto her stomach from laughing too hard, the entire guild joined in on her laughter. Bets were being made on how long it would take for Erza to catch the two idiots. Lucy started feeling a little bit better now. The guild always had a way of making her smile when she felt down.
ヽ（゜ロ゜；）ノ ヽ（゜ロ゜；）ノ s(・｀ヘ・;)ゞ
After a while Erza returned with the two injured boys. She kicked them both to the ground and marched towards a table. She sat down by the table but not before getting another slice of strawberry cake. Wendy was busy healing the two while Lucy stared at them. After Natsu got up he noticed Lucy at the bar and started walking towards his best friend.
"Hey Luce" Natsu greeted with a toothy grin.
"Oh, Natsu" Lucy looked at him with a small smile on her face.
"Are you still mad at me Luce? I'm sorry I didn't mean to make you mad" he averted his gaze, staring at the floor with a sad face.
Lucy watched him, a bit of guilt flooded her heart as she saw the sadness in his eyes. 'I think he got enough from the whole Erza thing.' Lucy gave a small smile as she gently grabbed Natsu's hand. After feeling her hand in his Natsu looked back at her with wide eyes. "I forgive you Natsu. I mean after all nobody would be able to put up with me like you do." She giggled at the thought. She examined his face again, noticing a bit of pink on his face. 'Is he blushing?'
"I'll always put up with you." He muttered to himself
"Hmm? What did you say Natsu?' She gave him a puzzled look.
"I said that I'm glad that you're not mad anymore" He gave her a smile, "We should go on a job again! Its been a while."
She gave him a large smile. "Sure, hey Natsu…"
"Mmm?"
"You can let go of my hand now." She giggled at his reaction, his face turning redder.
The duo got up to walk towards the request board when they noticed Happy flying to them.
"Where you been buddy?" Natsu asked as Happy stopped in front of them.
"What's wrong? You seem worried" Lucy looked at the blue feline.
"I saw two people in cloaks coming this way… I just got a bad feeling is all" Happy said, lowering himself to the ground.
"Did you see their faces?" Lucy inquired, wondering why two strangers would come to the guild.
"No, they're completely hidden underneath their cloa-"
The guild doors flung open revealing the aforementioned figures standing in front of the guild. Silence came as nobody knew what to do.
Natsu protectively raised his arm in front of Lucy in case they came to hurt someone.
"What do you guys want?" he growled at them.
The two figures started moving forward.
