Hi Minna! I'm Takamiya Sakura and this is my very first story.. Though this was published a few years ago, I stopped updating because of school. I planned to renew this story of mine. It still has the same plot but the way of writing is different. English is my second language so I'm very sorry if I have wrong grammars.

~I do not own Fairy Tail and its characters except for this plot.


I didn't want things to happen this way.

Before that happened, I thought that my days would fill with happy moments, with laughs, giggles, and the usual things that would happen at the guild. Mira would serve Macao and Wakaba their drinks while the two old men were telling her to date them, but the pretty bartender would just tell them that they already have a wife so they shouldn't flirt with her, while Cana is drinking her barrel of wine even though it's still too early to drink. Levy reading a mountain of books with Gajeel beside her. Natsu and Gray calling each other's names and soon after that, a brawl will happen that most of the time Erza would be the one to separate them. Happy would just give a fish with a pretty ribbon tied on it to the white-exceed Charle, on which she would always decline while Wendy beside them would just giggle on her exceed's "acting", even though the white exceed was just shy to accept the gift.

And I would just sit at the bar, drinking my favourite milkshake while reading my favourite book.

I like on how the way it is now.

I can picture the guild being like this every day.

This usual image is always been my favourite.

I thought that image would always stay as it is.

But I made a mistake, thinking like that.


"E-Everyone.." A 17-year old blonde girl was sitting on the ground, crying. Her appearance was not good to look at. Covered with bruises here and there, her simple summer white dress was now ripped and in a disaster but it still covered her private parts, her hair golden hair was now black and brown. Chanting her friends'—no, her family's names all over and over, thinking that if she would do that, a miracle will happen and will take her sadness away. That it would make her family open their eyes and awaken from their "slumbers", in which it was much unexpected to happen.

Her face was wet and no matter how she would wipe her tears, another one would produce, wipe, and then another. She was practically sobbing, screaming, shouting, she don't know what to do. She doesn't even care where she is now. Around her were shattered building chunks, fallen debris, bricks and destroyed houses. It was like a typhoon passed by, only it wasn't a typhoon, but mostly it was from the war that happened a few hours ago.

It can be seen among the fallen buildings, colours were sticking out with blue, black, raven, white, red—or more like a scarlet. Mostly it belongs to her family. They weren't moving, as in there's no life on their bodies. They're merely nothing like her nakama, but a corpse. She can't—won't accept it.

They were fine awhile ago. They were cheering 'Let's get this over and go home together!' They all promised that they would make it alive in this so called 'War'. They were smiling just a moment ago. But how did it come to this? How did this happened?

Looking down on her lap was a boy who was just the same age with her. A pink haired mage with a red Fairy tail mark on his right arm, a white—but covered with dirt, scaled scarf was dangling on his neck. Unlike with the blonde girl, the boy has much more injuries throughout his body. Blood covered his side face, bruises formed on his arms and on his legs. It would be guessed that his torso is much more injured than his other parts. Even though his appearance looks so bad, his face didn't show discomfort or pain. More like he looks like he is sleeping peacefully. But you know what they say, appearance can deceived people.

"Natsu... Please wake up.." the girl sobbed, caressing the boy's—now called Natsu's pink locks with care.

Looking up from her lap, she can't even stop her tears from falling of what she saw. The whole town was destroyed. She doesn't even want to involve the whole town and her family, but now what she saw really proves her nightmare. The townspeople and her family were dead. She killed them. She killed them and she can't forgive herself for that.

It's her fault.

She's really unlucky.

She herself is unlucky.

She brings misfortune to those around her.

To her loved ones.

To her nakama.

To him.

"W-Why...?" She sobbed on her hands. "W-Why am I always the one who is left behind...?" Her voice was quivering. That was true. From the first day she was born, she was already unlucky. First it was her mother. At a young age, her mother left her and went to heaven. Then her father who she thought that he didn't love her and blamed her of her mother's death and she can't help but hate her own father throughout her life until she found out after his death that he truly loves her with all of his heart. And her little sister doll Michelle who suffered of being lonely, because of her own selfishness that made her left Michelle behind, thinking that the doll reminded her of her late mother. And because of that, she let her little sister suffered of being controlled and deceived by the evil. Everything is always her fault.

"I-It's not even their f-fault... B-But why did my unluckiness have to befall on them as well...?" She asked herself.

Her celestial keys were nowhere to be found. She lost them when she was captured and wasn't able to get it back from the enemy. Again, she blamed herself for being a bad friend and a master to her celestial spirits.

"E-Everyone, p-please don't leave m-me!" She sobbed strongly on her hands. She's really selfish. Even though she's the one who killed them, she was even asking them to not leave her. She's really—

"Then what is your wish?" An unfamiliar voice spoke behind her, startling her because (1) she thought that she's the only one who is left alive in the middle of a ruined town and (2) she didn't expect to be asked by such a question.

Slowly, she removed her hands on her face and look to her shoulder. Her eyes widened of what she saw.

There standing was a little girl—in like 7 years old form—glowing with pure light throughout her body. But that wasn't made her shocked. The little girl's hair was also blonde. She was wearing a golden wavy dress that stops at her knees and she was on barefoot.

Right now, the two of them are like looking at a mirror, only what they are looking in front of them are their older selves—in the little girl's situation, and younger version in the older one's situation.

"M-My younger s-self?" She stuttered, still eyes wide. Who would've thought that you would meet you're younger self in such a place. And to top it all, she's glowing!

"I know that you have a lot of questions right now, but it's not the time to explain it to you. Not in such circumstances.." The little girl said the last statement softly while looking at her surroundings with her sad eyes. She frowned more when she look back to the older blonde's lap and took a glance at the pink haired.

"W-Why is my younger self here? What's going on?" The older one decided to speak. She still can't believe what she is seeing. "And what do you mean of a wish?"

The younger ignored the first two questions and answered the third question. "Don't you want to save them?" She asked her with emotionless eyes.

That question made her flinch. Why this little girl would ask such a question? Isn't it already obvious? She wants her nakama to live! She doesn't want their fate to be like this! Didn't this little girl saw her crying just now?

"Of course! I want them to live! I want them to enjoy their life that God gave to them! But I stole their lives... I'm not even capable to do such a thing, but I did it. I did it! It's my fault! That's why I want them to live again! I wish that I can turn back the time before all of this happened—no, before I met them so that they can live their life without me in their way. I wish I never met them!" She explained breathlessly without looking at the younger one, but on the boy who is on her lap. She doesn't know what she's saying. But she just let her emotions take her and be swept away.

"Is that your answer, Lucy Heartfilia?" the younger one asked again.

"Yes." Lucy simply answered still without looking at her younger self behind.

"I understand." The younger Lucy closed her eyes. "Then I will fulfil your wish, Lucy Heartfilia."

Then without a moment, the Earthland's ground was glowing with golden light and golden magic circles were forming throughout the ground, beneath the unmoving bodies, and even on the chunks and debris from the destroyed buildings.

"Wh-What's going on?!" Lucy screamed while holding Natsu's body closed to her, afraid of what will happen.

"Lucy Heartfilia" The younger Lucy walked in front of Lucy and squatted down. She held Lucy's right hand—that made Lucy look at her younger's self eyes. "We will turn back Earthland's time. just as you wished. But there'll be many obstacles, consequences that will be in your way as you will be the one to fulfil your own wish from now on." The younger Lucy looked at Lucy with sad eyes. "Just like you have wished, you need to stay away from them to avoid their involvement of your life. But can you do it? Can you stay away from them as you will be hurt from just seeing them at the side without talking to them?" She asked Lucy with such a soft voice. But Lucy can clearly hear her, even though their surrounding is too loud. The bodies of her nakama and the townspeople were now starting to disappear into a golden dust.

Lucy can't help but smile warmly at her own younger self and touch her face with her right hand and said, "Even if I will be hurt, even if I will suffer, I will still save them. If I can just see them laugh again at the guild, while I'm just standing behind the darkness watching them, then I'll gladly do it."

The younger Lucy's eyes widened. She expect to see in Lucy's eyes to have sadness, but what she saw was determination to save her family and the Earthland's brink of destruction. She always thought she's selfish but from what my eyes are telling me, she's a goddess that thinks of her people's safety before her. The younger Lucy thought. Though it was really weird to think about that to her own—more like older self, she still can't help but think on how soft-hearted her own self is.

Younger Lucy softly smiled at Lucy and began to shine more before. Before Lucy knew it, her younger self dispersed into golden dust and went inside her. Lucy began to shine.

Then good luck and I wish you to succeed Lucy.

Lucy can picture her own younger self smiling greatly at her.

Thank you.

She thanked her own younger self. She looked down at Natsu and smiled softly. Her tears were dry now and there were no more tears appearing, so she's a bit happy that she stopped crying now. Natsu would've teased her right now and call her 'weirdo' together with the blue feline if she's still bawling her eyes out from crying—that is if he's awake from his slumber.

A magic circle was formed beneath them and Natsu's body was starting to shine like the others.

Natsu..

Lucy started to lean on Natsu's face.

Don't worry..

She touched Natsu's face with her right hand while her left hand supported Natsu's head at the back.

I'll definitely save you all..

She closed her eyes.

You don't have to face your fate like this.

She can feel her lips touching his.

Because I will change it.

Then blackness overcame her.
