Hey, so new story I'm trying. I'm going to bring an OC in later that will help Lucy find her way. Is this world where she's in a coma is Magnolia truely fake? Or is this her dream as she dies from the stab wound? Or is it a separate world all together like when Lisanna went to Edolas? Stay tuned to find out and please leave reviews!
It all happened so fast. I didn't even have time to think.
The rain poured down that night in Magnolia, thunder rumbled in the distance as I walked home from the guild. I was trying to be quick, but it didn't pan out that way. I could have sworn that I heard footsteps behind me a couple of times but I paid it no mind. Probably just other people trying to get out of this rain. Boy was I ever wrong.
"Hey pretty lady where ya going?" A sleazy voice said as a tall man emerged from the shadows. I brushed past him with a scowl.
"Home." I answered cooly. His hand touched my arm and grabbed hold as I passed.
"You sure about that, blondie? Wouldn't you rather party with us?" He smirked as a few more guys roughly his size emerged from the shadows. I was a little bit nervos at this point, but decided to cover it with false bravado by pulling a key from my pouch.
"No. I don't. Not get lost or I'll scream." I said defiantly, mustering up as much courage as I could. In truth I was terrified. If they were wizards I might be in trouble... I felt cold metal against my stomach as he whirled me to face him. The tip of a blade.
"No you won't. You're going to do exactly what we tell you. Understand?" He chuckled to himself and I glared at him before gathering the air and screaming at the top of my lungs.
"NATSU! HAPPY! ERZA! GRAY! HELP M- AH!" I was cut off with a gasp as the blade entered my gut. It felt like pure ice was running through my veins as I slid to the ground. The men turned and fled, panicked that someone may have heard me. I shivered slightly, my vision swimming. My hand went to rest on the handle of the blade. A hand caught mine as I went to pull it out.
"Lucy you have to leave the blade in!" He exclaimed in a panic. "You'll bleed out if you don't!" It took a moment for him to come into focus with the street lamp behind his head, casting a shadow.
"Lo...Ke?" I choked out, blood bubbling past my lips. It hurt so much... I couldn't seem to move. "Hurts Loke... Hurts really... bad."
"Lucy come on! Somebody help me!" He yelled, but of course no one was around. It was pouring rain. It was getting harder and harder to breathe as my lungs began filling with my own blood. I was scared.
"I don't want to... Leave." I whispered, tears welling up in my eyes. "I want to stay in Fairytail Loke..." I could feel my tears slide down my cheeks as Loke's tears splashed down from above with the rain.
"Of course you can stay! Just keep your eyes open! Look at me! LUCY DON'T CLOSE YOUR EYES!" He cried, hugging me close to him. I couldn't stop crying. Eventually I couldn't breathe anymore and began to drown from the blood in my lungs. As I wretched and coughed trying to expel the red liquid, I knew that it was no use. I was dying. I could still hear Loke calling my name, telling me to look at him as my eyes closed and everything faded into darkness.
…...
My eyes flew open. I was in a soft hospital bed with monitors and beeping noises all around. The pain in my gut was gone. My gaze whirled around wildly. This wasn't the infirmary or Magnolia hospital! It certainly wasn't Porlyeusica's place... where was I? A dark haired nurse walked into the room and gasped as I sat up, running from the room once again.
"Doctor! Doctor! Miss Heartfilia is awake!" She yelled, sprinting down the hall. I held my aching head and pulled IVs and other tubes and things from my arms. A few minutes later, a kindly looking woman entered the room, her pink hair up in a tight bun.
"Miss Porlyeusica?" I asked in confusion. Why would she be in a hospital? She hated people!
"It's so good to see that you've awoken, child." She said gently, walking to the bedside and holding my hand. "You gave your family quite a scare."
"I d-don't have any f-f-family!" I stammered, confused. "Where's Natsu? And the master, and Erza and Gray?" I looked around as she looked at me sympathetically.
"I see. You're confusing the dream from your coma with reality. It's perfectly normal." She said, putting a hand on my cheek gently. Eventually everything will go back to the way it was before. You'll see."
"Back to normal? And where are my gate keys?" I reached towards my pocket, but they weren't there. "Oh no! I bet those ment took them I have to find them! My spirits need my help!" I tried to get up only to fall. The rosette ran to my side to help me up.
"Now Lucy, I know that this is all going to be very hard to take in, but you must listen to me. I don't know what gate keys are, but they were part of a dream." She said firmly, laying me back down on the cot. "What I do know is that three years ago you were hit by a car. The trauma had put you in a coma and you've been like that ever since." Her gentle voice was reassuring, but I refused to believe it.
"No! It isn't true! I'm a wizard of Fairytail! My guild is my home! I have an apartment that I adore! Celestial spirits! I have friends there! We go on missions and Natsu gets motion sick and-" I looked down at my left hand. Oh my god. My guild mark... it wasn't there!
"You are Lucy Ashley Heartfilia. Sole daughter of Jude and Layla Heartfilia. You have two brothers named Laxus and Sting. You go to Fairytail high school where you major in celestial studies. I'm sorry, Lucy.
But there's no such thing as magic." She looked me right in the eye as she said it. I could feel my world begin to crumble around me. None of it was real... Nothing at all? I held out for maybe ten seconds before I began sobbing uncontrolably.
"It isn't true! You're lying! Erza! Natsu! Please help me! PLEASE!" I sobbed. The guild crest was gone. How could my guild crest, my pride, just vanish?! I needed to find my keys! Maybe grandpa crux would know what had happened! Everyone had lost their memories! Yeah that must have been it! I happened to look out the window where I saw a raven haired girl. I paused, feeling as though I knew her. She was staring right at me with her arms crossed. Her long hair hung down to her waist and she wore a brown bomber jacket, jeans, and knee high combat boots. She studied me for a moment, her blue eyes piercing before she blurred and vanished. Had I imagined it?... I don't think so. I didn't have time to dwell on it as two blondes stumbled into the room.
"LUCY!" Sting cried, crushing me in a hug with tears streaming down his face. "We thought you'd never wake up! We were so worried!" He buried his face in my hair and my eyes widened in shock. Why was Sting hugging me?! Laxus pulled us both into his arms, crying softly as well. Now I'd seen it all. LAXUS DREYER CRYING?! I should take a picture. I was honestly just dazed. I didn't know what to do or say. If you had just been told that two people -one of which tried to kill you in the past- were your brothers in a world that was completely void of magic, wouldn't you be a LITTLE panicked?
"I... I think I'm going to pass out..." I mumbled, stumbling out of the embrace and fainting, one of the blonde catching me before I hit the floor.
