Disclaimer : I do not own Fairy Tail!
She doesn't remember the day when the world ended for her.. She doesn't remember the day when she lost everything she ever had..
She doesn't remember crying over her mother's death at the age of ten.. She doesn't remember not finding her father alive after returning from the Fairy Sphere.. She doesn't remember her friends who fought and protected her till their last breathes.. She doesn't remember him.. Her best friend whom she had fallen in love with but did not realize until he was gone.. Gone, everyone gone and they left her all alone..
Shadows are falling and I am falling too
So hold me tight and never let go
But wouldn't she be lying if she says she doesn't remember? Of course not.. How can she? When its been over seven years since someone she loves, smiled at her.. Or maybe Yes.. But she did not want to remember 'cause it hurts..
It had always been the same she realizes.. Them fighting and her being protected.. Why? Why wouldn't they let her fight with them? Why didn't they take her with them? Why was she left behind?.. Alone.. All Alone. To face the crucial pain that threatens to shatter down her heart in countless pieces.. Physical wounds are better she thinks sometimes.. 'Cause they show how much hurt you are.. But the internal ones keeps bleeding until your very last breathe without leaving any traits.. Except for the tears of course.. But for her, even the tears refuse to come out of those once lively and beautiful brown orbs that seem lifeless and empty now.
I miss you, I always did
And all I ever wanted is to feel you right here with me
But you were far far away..
So she decides to forget... Forget everything.. Forget all those years of life that she spent in a cell called home.. Forget her fateful encounter with a certain pink haired dragon slayer.. Forget all those days when she no more felt alone and broken 'cause she had a family then.. She had him. Even though she knows she never will be able to, still she tries and forgets! 'Cause the memories she has forgotten won't - can't hurt her..
Hold me in your thoughts, take me to your dreams
Touch me as I fall into view
But today when she is bleeding on the ground courtesy to the blow she took in the process of saving someone (No! Not someone.. Saving herself.. Her present counterpart) she feels a stinging pain in her heart.. And she knows it has nothing to do with her physical wounds.. Today she remembers the day when she met that salmon haired idiot in Hargeon who gave her a new family.. She remembers all those adventures and missions they did together along with her other team members.. She remembers how he was always there whether she needed him or not and how she fell in love along the lines.. She remembers when she was still able to smile.. The smile that was lost for seven long years till now after they were gone..
Tears of pain/anguish starts to flow down from her eyes for the first time in those seven years and she refuses to wipe them away .. She could see her present counterpart crying over her.. The blue cat what was his name again? Oh yes! Happy crying over her..She tells them she never did anything that brought harm on her friends.. But she knew that they already know.. 'Cause they trust her.. They always did.
She tries to console them saying she is not the one they love that she just came from the future.. That she doesn't belong to them .. Her present counterpart still lives with her friends.. But they wouldn't listen .. The cat - Happy wouldn't listen.. He says Lucy is Lucy.. Funny thing it is.. She was craving for these emotions, this love since she lost them and now when she could finally feel that warmth in her heart again, she was dying..
I'll find my way, Through night and day,
'Cause I know I just can't stay
"Hey, show me your guild mark.."she whispers to her present self.. That mark! It was never just a mark to her that states which guild you belong to.. It had always been more to her.. It was the last and most important part of her precious memories.. The mark that shows she belongs to a family.. Her family.. A family that cares..
"You.. Your left hand.."
She stares at the mark on her present self's right hand and a painful -yet full of bliss - smile forms on her lips.. Her vision starts to get blurry.. Is it just the tears? she asks herself.. No.. It wasn't the tears.. She was dying and she knew.. Thus she closed those empty brown orbs to never open again!
Death is painful she heard somewhere. But nothing beats the pain in her heart right now.
"I really wanted to go on more adventures.." with them, with him she states..
"Protect... The future.." she tells them before everything went dark.. To her atleast..

For many hours and days that pass ever soon
the tides have caused the flame to dim
At last the arm is straight, the hand to the loom
Is this to end or just begin?
A/N : I don't know when and where this came from.. Just a random one-shot.. Maybe 'cause there was so much feels when Lucy (from future) dies..
Reviews are very very much appreciated, whether criticism or not.. Thank you xD
