Lucy Heartfilia was not the kind of girl who enjoyed playing horror games, especially those involving ghosts, demons and what not. In fact, she was against it. Against the terror, of course.
But how the hell did she end up here?
The blonde was sitting surrounded by her best friends (although she wasn't too sure about that anymore), all of whom were grinning evilly. They were currently in Lucy's apartment, cross legged at the coffee table with some sort of game in the middle that bore an uncanny resemblance to a Ouija board.
She looked around at her friends, making a mental note to get revenge on them later.
Lucy's eyes landed on her closest friend, Levy McGarden. She could not believe that Levy was involved in this terrifying plan. After all, Levy was the sweetest girl she knew. Levy chirped, "Lucy-chan, lighten up!"
Next, was another blunette named Juvia who sat across from her. This particular girl spoke in third person which, believe it or not, was refreshing to hear once in awhile. "Juvia thinks it's going to be fun!"
Last, but not least, the girl's eyes dashed to the right. Erza. Vibrant red hair. Formal and mature, but extremely angry if you messed with her favourite food, strawberry shortcake. "What they said."
Lucy is a stubborn girl, so she had her arms crossed and she pouted. Like a child. She had no idea what had just happened. One minute they were coming in like it was their home, and somehow got situated like this. They did this all the time. She should be used to it, but it was still unfair! You just don't go knocking down doors and act like you own the place!
Lucy huffed, "What even is this game? Is it some kind of Ouija board?" The blonde eyed the game suspiciously after she finished glaring at her friends.
The small and gentle voice that belonged to Levy spoke up, "It's not an Ouija board, we promise! It's somewhat similar though, Warren made it for us."
"So what does it do? You said it was similar..." Lucy scratched her cheek, attempting to connect the dots.
"It calls out to demons. Sometimes, the demon appears." Erza stated, emotionless like it was nothing. What was Lucy expecting after all? The redhead was a brave woman.
Chocolate brown eyes widened as pupils dilated, "EHH, WHY?" She screamed in terror, thinking about the terrible monsters that would pop out of nowhere into her home.
"Think of it as an experiment. Okay, Lucy-san? Juvia herself is petrified, but she would like to experience this once!" The woman sitting across from Lucy offered a cajoling smile.
Luckily, it worked.
Lucy sighed, throwing her hands up in the air, "I give up." It was three against one. She would've lost anyway. The two blunettes smiled and the redhead practically had stars in her eyes, thrilled with the victory.
"So who wants to start?" Erza sat up straight as she looked at each of her dear friends who seemed unsure. "I suppose I'll go first."
"What're you supposed to do?" Lucy asked, observing the game sitting there on her coffee table.
"We all are supposed to place our hands in the middle, right on that mark that looks like a crown with horns on it. I'm supposed to say 'Zeref, send us one of your creations!'. Apparently, either the demon will write on the board or appear in front of our eyes."
The room was silent, everyone slowly processing the information given to them. Lucy was shivering while holding Levy's trembling arm. Juvia looked perfectly fine, but she hugged the two women for comfort. Erza nodded at them, delicately placing her hand in the middle first. Second, Juvia. Third was Levy and fourth was Lucy.
"Are you guys ready?" Erza asked, scanning her friends' faces. They nodded. Taking a deep breath, the woman called out, "Zeref, send us one of your creations!"
Lucy was sure her own hand was shaking and the others could feel it. She squeezed shut her eyes the moment Erza finished her sentence. After hearing gasps, she squinted out of her left eye.
Her hand was off the board. She assumed that she took it off unconsciously or the demon moved it somehow. The blonde slowly opened both eyes and looked at her friends, who were reading the board.
In neat cursive was written, "Hello! I am Wendy, how may I be of service to you?"
Wendy. A female name, and therefore a female demon. The girls were surprised, they expected a rude man- or rather, demon to write or appear. Nonetheless, they were pleased with what Zeref had sent them. 'How may I be of service' - polite and civilized. A nice demon is better than nothing, after all!
Erza decided to ask a simple question. "Wendy! I would like to ask you... if Levy or Lucy will get a lover?" She smirked, proud of her query. The two single ladies seemed shocked while tints of pink dusted their cheeks.
While Lucy glared at Erza, a bright white light enveloped the room, centering on her very plain table. She squinted, covering her eyes while she adjusted a bit to see a girl appearing. The girl- who she guessed was Wendy, had blue hair. The bright light slowly faded away.
Wendy's hair was not as light as Levy's or Juvia's, but darker. Sort of like Jellal's, now that Lucy thought about it. She had long hair set into two high pigtails that still reached her tiny waist and her bangs framed her face. She was slight, perhaps 12 years old.
The girls around the table had their eyes wide open in awe. The demon summoning had worked, and Wendy was adorable looking!
"Hi! I'm Wendy and... I'm not a fortune teller, but most likely soon they both will." The demon spoke, smiling kindly at Erza.
Lucy and Levy looked at each other, their jaws practically dropped to the ground. They couldn't believe what the cute demon girl had just said, and they honestly were fine with being single.
"Say Wendy-san, is it?" Juvia spoke up, completely ignoring Lucy and Levy's reaction. She paused to let Wendy nod at her. "Juvia would like to know if Gray-sama loves anybody else, romantically?" The blunette blushed, looking down.
The demon seemed as if she was scanning something in her mind. Looking down at Juvia, she spoke, "Juvia, I believe there was something about Erza before meeting you. Do not get mad at Erza though, she did not know anything about it until.. probably now. I guarantee that she's in love with Jellal Fernandes." Wendy nodded as Erza's eyes widened.
To everyone's surprise, Juvia stayed calm. She genuinely believed Wendy. "All that matters now is that Gray-sama only loves me now. Thank you, Wendy." She stated happily, while Wendy smiled confidently.
"How long are you allowed to be here, Wendy?" Levy asked.
"I have plenty of time, actual-" The young girl had been interrupted, it seemed like she was being lifted up by someone. "What're ya doin', Tornado?" A low male voice came into the audio, while a different man came into the frame of the projection.
The demon looked young, probably around eighteen. He had salmon pink hair which was messy, sticking up all over the place, but somehow fit him. His skin was tan with emerald slanted eyes. He wore a black baggy jacket and pants, the lack of a shirt showing off chiseled abs. Around his neck was a grid-like scarf.
The room went silent as the pink haired man looked right into the camera with dark emerald green eyes. Lucy thought it was a bit funny. She held back a laugh, covering her mouth with her right hand that had a pink Fairy-like tattoo.
"Wen', what's this? I see humans inside of this.. thing?" He said, very confused and looking back to Wendy and the other man.
"I'll tell you when Gajeel puts me down!" The girl squealed. Wendy walked closer to the hologram, looking irritated as she explained to the boy. "This is a communication device for us demons and humans on Earth. Those people are watching us and listening in. I'm so sorry, guys!" She bowed her head before looking up to introduce her companions. "This is my cousin, Natsu and the other one is Gajeel."
"Oh! Okay, well, yo! I'm Natsu, it's nice to meet you all!" Natsu had a grin spread across his face with his teeth.. and fangs showing.
"I'm not showing myself, but yeah I'm Gajeel." The voice responded, careful to keep out of range of being broadcast, but still peering at the group of humans.
Everyone in Lucy's apartment was still shocked, surprised at how casual and friendly the demons were acting. They expected extremely mean demons, but these demons, they were something else.
The girls around the table decided introduced themselves as well. Gajeel kept giving nicknames to every single one of the girls. Juvia was Rain Woman, Levy was Shrimp and Erza was Strawberry.
Lucy spoke, "I'm Lucy, it's nice to meet you all."
Gajeel gave her the nickname Bunny Girl. Her generous smile dimmed as Natsu replied, "It's nice you meet you too, Luigi!"
"My name isn't Luigi." The human woman tried to keep her smile up and tried not to seem aggravated.
"What'd ya say, Luigi?" The pink haired demon squinted, scratching his head.
Clearly, Natsu was practically asking for a famous Lucy-Kick all the way from Earth.
"MY NAME IS NOT LUIGI, NATSU." The blonde yelled as her right eye twitched.
"You're weird, Luce. I like you already."
