Disclaimer: I don't own Fairy Tail :(


Fairy Academy is a normal but famous school. It covers middle school to college/university education. What makes it so special that everyone wants to go there? They have a class for the elite. The elite class is a class for geniuses or people that are gifted, academically. The students also get extra privileges, such as, having their own research facilities, personal labs, office's, etc. Aside from the elite class there's the S-class. The S-class, is a class for the top 20 students of the whole school. This means the two classes are the only ones that have wide age range. If you're wondering how this works, they have big test twice a year to determine the ranks of students to ensure the right students are in the S-class. Of course the elite students take a different, more difficult exam.

It is now night time at Fairy Academy; the stars are shining brightly above the school. The atmosphere was tranquil and it was silent… until BANG

"Ouch!" a male voice shouted.

"Shh! Do I have to tell you every time to be quiet?" a female voice whispered, irritation clear in her voice.

"Heh heh, Sorry" the male replied, scratching his cheek. Meet Natsu Dragoneel. He's 17 years old and an S-Class student of Fairy Academy and student council president. He's popular within the school because he's ranked first within the school and, also, because of his unique pink hair and looks. He's kind, reckless and with the stuff he does and says, you'd question his smarts, even with him being ranked first.

"Sheesh, it's fine as long as we're not caught" "anyways, here's the new gadget" the girl said handing him a something that looks like hairspray. Meet Lucy Heartfilia. She's a 17 year old genius, in the elite class of Fairy Academy. She's the prodigy of the school, even among the elites. You name it, she can probably do it. She's, also, popular at school because of her kind personality and looks, even though she's an elite.

"Thanks, so what does it do?" Natsu asked

"After you cut the glass to the classroom and complete the mission, just put the glass back and spray the can over the cut glass" "then wipe it with a cloth and it should look as good as knew" Lucy said with an accomplished look.

"So…"

"It basically repairs the glass"

"Oh, thanks Luce… I never understand how you can be so amazing sometimes" he said causing said girl's cheeks to heat up a little. "Like how you invented this stuff!" he looked at her with a big grin making her smile back at him.

"Anyway…" she paused slightly as she jumped over the school gate after Natsu.

"How can you be so stupid sometimes and still be top of the school?" she asked.

"I have a good memory so I just cram a few days before the tests" he replied nonchalantly.

"Hmm… then why is your 12 year old sister so smart?" she said with a teasing tone

"She's a part of the elite, so she's just smart!" he replied with a pout. After walking to the location they needed, all they had to do was break into the classroom, which was simple. Natsu cut the glass in a circular shape and put his hand through the hole. He grabbed hold of the handle and pulled open the window. He immediately patched up the glass with the spray.

"Wow, it really worked!"

"Of course it did! I always test everything before I give it to you!" Lucy retorted with a pout. Natsu just laughed at her reaction.

"So… what is the item I have to steal this time?" he asked with a serious tone.

"A bracelet"

"I thought you said we have to avoid stealing stuff with monetary value?"

"You thought right, it's one of those string friendship bracelets" She replied in a matter-of-factly tone.

"Hmm…"

"It's important to the client, something about a promise with a friend"

"Okay, the request said it was in the teachers desk right?" Natsu said whilst going into the classroom, towards the said desk.

"Yep, someone took it and put it there and the teacher locked it so they couldn't retrieve it for a while" Lucy said with a small frown. Natsu took out a few tools and unlocked the desk. He searched through it taking things out until he spotted the string bracelet.

"Got it!" he received a thumbs up from Lucy in reply. He immediately placed everything back in the desk, as it was before, locked it and headed back outside where Lucy was keeping watch.

"Good, now we'll just put in her locker then mission complete" Lucy said whilst climbing into the building with ease.

"Okay"

They locked the window before walking towards the location of the lockers. They approached the lockers and started searching for number 102. They searched for about 10 minutes before they found it. They placed the bracelet in. They smiled at each other whilst closing her locker. As they walked towards the classroom, a light suddenly shone down the corridor. They quickly hid in the classroom waiting for the light to pass by so they know they can escape safely but Natsu just had to sneeze causing the passably to be alert of their presence.

"Who's there?" a old male voice said.

"Crap, Natsu! You just had to sneeze!" Lucy whisper- shouted.

"I'm sorry Luce but I couldn't help it" he said apologetically.

"It's fine, just run!"

"Oi, get back here!" they ran down the corridors chased by the school janitor, they escaped out of the school and headed towards the gate with the janitor hot on their trail shouting them to stop and give themselves in. They jumped over the gate and ran as fast as they could away from the school.

"Wwe… lost him" Natsu said panting.

"Yyeahh" Lucy said, also, panting from their escape.

"Bet you're glad I told you we should dress like ninja's now!"

"… For once I'm glad I listened to you" she said sticking her tongue out playfully at him, with him doing the same back. They then laughed at their childishness. "All we have to do know is contact the client and tell her she'll find the item in her locker and done!"

"Right!" Lucy took out a phone from her pocket and texted the client telling them the mission was a success. The phone was one they used especially to contact clients. The clients would have to find out from others in the school the number or email address to contact them.

"Well we're done and it's late do I'm going to head off home now"

"hmm, why don't come over to my house for dinner again?" "My mum and dad won't mind nor will Wendy"

"Thanks Natsu but I can't always bother your family and I'm sure Gajeel would mind"

"Who cares about metal face? And it won't be a bother, they basically want you to live with us!" "besides you only live down the street so I can walk you back after" Natsu said with a toothy grin, causing Lucy to blush a little.

"b…but…" she was cut off with Natsu dragging her to his house. "Natsu! Are you sure it's fine?"

"Of course, like I said they love having you there"

"… okay, fine!" Lucy said with a smile occupying her lips.

"Good!" Natsu said still dragging her to his home.

Some of you might be confused why Lucy seems to visit the Dragoneel household a lot and why they were stealing from the school. That is because Lucy lives alone. She was isolated from the world because of her father. He changed for the worse, after her mother, Layla's death when she was only 6 years old. Her father, Jude, decided he wanted to keep Lucy's talents to himself and use it for the prosperity of his company and neglected Lucy. He kept her confined in her own home or 'prison' as she called it. Her father passed away when she was 13 and she was sent to some 'family friends'. They only wanted her talents and her inheritance, which she'd rightfully get at 18. Different families 'friends' took her in, for less than a year, before Master Makarov found her and immediately noticed her talents. He just didn't know at the time how talented and gifted she was.

He gave her a real home and enrolled her into his school for the last year of middle school. When she first enrolled she had to do a series of tests, the results shocked all the teachers in the academy and she was admitted a place in the elite class and given her own workroom and facilities. She was on her way to her classroom and that's how she met Natsu. He took her to her class and even introduced his friends to her. They all immediately became good friends. Later that day she also, found, they didn't live too far from each other and became best friends easily.

When they started High School, Natsu and some of his friends became a part of the student council and that when he started being a thief. On their way home, one day, he just said:

Flashback

"I want a but more excitement in my life"

"Huh? What do you mean? The school is crazy, isn't that enough"

"I mean something different, that makes your adrenaline rush with excitement"

"Hmm… what so you have in mind?" He thought for a moment before replying.

"I'll become a thief!"

"WHAT?! Are you out of my mind, you're going to break the law for 'more excitement in your life'?"

"No! I mean a good thief"

"… right… because that makes a difference?"

"We can help people from our academy steal stuff back for them and it can be a small business too!" he said like he made a big discovery.

"Are you being serious? And what do you mean by 'we'?

"Yep! And me and you of course!" he said with a big toothy grin. She could never resist that big smile of his.

Sigh "fine! But we have to try and not steal anything that has a big monetary value and is mainly just important because of memories"

"Deal!"

Flashback end

After that they spent a few days in her personal workroom and made an account where they could take a small payment from the clients. She even made an email account and a mobile like device for it, to contact the clients. She knew Natsu was very athletic so he'd be fine with escaping if need be, but she decided to make gadgets for him to make it easier, like the glass repairing spray. Since then she's made a lot more gadgets like hover shoes, voice recording pen, night-vision glasses, communicator badges with ear pieces, etc. They left the contact details around school for a few days before erasing them. They got their first client and that's how they started the hire a 'thief' business.

Lucy spaced out thinking about the past and she hadn't realised she arrived at Natsu's house until he called her.

"Luce? You okay?" he asked, a worried expression adorning his face.

"Hm? Oh, yeah! I'm fine, just spaced out a little" she replied with an awkward laugh.

"If you say so, weirdo"

"If I'm weird, you're weirder" she said with a pout

"No I'm not!"

"You are!"

"Not!"

"Are"

"Not!"

They argued like this for a while until a woman's voice stopped them.

"Are you both going to stand out there arguing, or are you both going to come inside?" the woman said with amusement coating her words. They looked at each other realising they were arguing in front of Natsu's house and immediately went in.

"I'm home!" Natsu shouted.

"Tthank y…you for having mme over!" Lucy stuttered a little embarrassed.

"Welcome home Natsu and you're always welcome here Lucy"


How was it? please R&R! :3
