Chapter 1 The Fated Encounter
Once upon a time there was a little girl named Lucy Heartfillia, who was playing with her friends: Natsu, Gray, Juvia, Levy, Erza and Gajeel in the street which was usually empty on Sundays. They were playing tag peacefully until Lucy fell, hitting her face against the floor. She started crying while someone patted her head. ''Don't cry Luce, you always look better with a smile!'' said Natsu with a grin on his face trying to cheer up Lucy. ''Come on stand up! Tell you what next time you're going to fall I'll catch you so you won't cry ever again!'' he said helping her stand up. ''Ok Natsu'' she said with a big smile. They decided to make some friendship bracelets after that because Lucy had a scratch on her knee and couldn't play tag anymore. When they finished the bracelets Lucy's mom called her to come in the house for dinner. ''Well I'll see you guys later!'' she said waving goodbye to her friends. She entered the house and her mom saw the scratch on her knee. ''Oh dear,what happened to your knee Honey?" ''It's ok mommy, Natsu told me that the next time I fall he's gonna catch me so that I don't cry again.'' she said smiling at her mom. Her mom chuckled and said ''Very well, now then let's go sit down at the table to eat ok? We have something important to talk about.'' Lucy sat next to her mother and they started eating, when they finished Lucy asked her mother what was the thing that she was going to tell her. ''Well your father and me decided that we need to move to another city.'' ''What?! But what about my friends?! Wh-what about Natsu?!'' she said while crying and screaming at her mom. ''I'm sorry Honey it's just that your father got work there.'' she said trying to calm the little Lucy down. ''This is because of dad's work I knew it! Why do we have to move can't daddy go on his own!?'' said Lucy slowly calming down. ''Don't worry sweetheart you can say goodbye to your friends before we leave and this isn't the end I know that one day you are all going to meet again, ok?'' ''ok mommy'' she said while her mom was hugging her to calm her down.
The next day
Lucy woke up sad knowing she was going to leave her friends today but stayed positive because she knew that somehow she was going to meet her friends in the future. She grabbed her friendship bracelet and her keys, she ate breakfast and went to the park with Virgo a celestial spirit that her mother summoned for her so that she didn't go alone and unsupervised. Her mother was a famous Celestial mage that could summon very powerful spirits and Lucy had inherited her mother's powers although right now she could only summon a very weak spirit named Plue. They went to the park where Lucy's friends played when the street on Sunday was full of cars passing by. When they arrived Lucy saw Natsu and Gray fighting, until Erza got in-between them to stop them and then she hit them in the head for fighting so much, while that was happening Levy and Gajeel were playing in the sand box together and Juvia watched Gray as he took his shirt off to fight Natsu, again. Before they continued fighting and playing they stopped on their tracks and saw Lucy with a sad look on her face. ''Lucy what's wrong?'' they all said in unison. ''U-um hi guys I came here to tell you something very important.'' she said tears forming in her eyes. ''Lucy why are you crying?'' Natsu said with a worried expression. ''…I'm moving today and I-I'm going to miss all of you so much!'' she said while crying. Natsu hugged her to calm her down and said ''Don't worry Luce, w-we are going to meet again I know it!'' he said tears forming in his eyes but he had a huge grin that made Lucy feel better. '' Besides we have theses bracelets to keep us reminded that we will always be friends.'' He said wiping her tears away. Virgo told Lucy that they had to leave or they were going to arrive late at the train station, Lucy looked up at Natu then he kissed her forehead and whispered ''Until we meet again Luce.''
After she said goodbye she left that afternoon with her parents to another city.
8 years later
''I can't believe it's been 8 years since I've seen them!'' Lucy said in her mind. 8 years have passed since she left her friends, she is now 18 years old and lives in another town named Magnolia in a little apartment across a street. A year after they moved her mother died because of an illness and her father changed into a horrible person who ignored her and forgot about her. When she was 17 she decided to escape and run away from home and wanted to join a famous guild called Fairy Tail as a powerful Celestial Mage. She saw in a newspaper that the guild was located in a city named Magnolia. She is still a little bit new to the city but now she's finally away from her father and living a new life. She wanted to check out some stores to buy new clothes to introduce herself at the guild. She grabbed her keys and put on her left hand a bracelet that she made with her childhood friends long ago and left the apartment. Lucy was walking down the street looking at the store's showcases when she wasn't looking strait she bumped into someone and fell on her butt. ''Ouch!'' ''Oh sorry! Here let me help you get up.'' When the stranger helped Lucy up she saw a bracelet on his hand just like hers when she looked up she saw a boy with spiky pink hair. The boy stared at her intensely. '' Um-sorry for bumping into you.'' ''….L-luce?'' Lucy wondered how this boy knew her name until she remembered the boy who kissed her forehead before she left to another city. ''Natsu?! Is it really you?!'' she said with an excited look on her face. '' Luce I can't believe it! I missed you so much!'' he said hugging her tightly.
