Prologue
It was raining, the blue sky was covered with dark clouds. A troop of people were trudging up a mountain, all of them silent, mourning. It had been four years since then, since one of their nakama had disappeared. They had all given up, a year ago. All except a certain fire dragon slayer, who was dragging himself up the mountain. He hated today. He knew that she was still out there, and was the one who refused when they decided to make a grave for her. How could they just give up, without hoping, and believing in her?
It happened four years ago, on Tenrou Island. Acnologia was going to destroy them all, and she stepped up. She used her last spell, to protect her family, her nakama, her guild mates. It had worked, Acnologia had disappeared, but as well as her. The black dragon had took her with it. The last thing she uttered before she left was, "SEE YA LATER, FAIRY TAIL! I LOVE YOU ALL! NATSU, DON'T DESTROY MY APARTMENT, WHILE I'M AWAY! TAKE CARE OF HAPPY, WILL YOU? I'LL SEE YOU AGAIN, SOMETIME SOON, HOPEFULLY!" Then, a giant, black magic circle appeared from beneath her, and a giant, black collar appeared on the dragon, which linked to her wrist. They could have sworn they saw her grow ears and a tail, but that was impossible. She shouted something, and Acnologia stopped attacking, and flew off, dragging her with it.
That was the last time they saw her. At first, they frantically looked for her everywhere, but one by one, their hope faded. Even a flying blue cat had stopped looking for his friend. Only the pink-haired mages' fire within him was burning strong. He was furious with them, how could they? They reached the top of the mountain, an isolated grave sitting there, wet from the rain. They took turns to say something to her, give her flowers, and such. One by one, they got up and left. All of them were sobbing, apart from him. He didn't need to cry, she was coming back, after all. He didn't speak to her or offer her flowers either. They all looked at him in pity.
A lone girl walked slowly up the mountain. "I swear there's something fishy about this mountain. My nakama's smell was here, and it was recent. Wonder what all of them were doing?" She reached the top and inspected the grave. "What do we have here? A GRAVE? Who died while I was away? Hmm… Lucy… Heartfillia… a loving and caring friend, and sister… " there was a pregnant pause, and she fell anime-style. "ME?!"
