Disclaimer: I do not own Fairy Tail

Lucy's POV

Some went to train harder to become stronger. Some stayed behind to make sure everything in the guild went smoothly.

"Lucy, you look tired."

I look up and smile. Erza's face is full of concern. I guess training with her and Juvia really takes a toll on me. Maybe I should rest for today.

"I'm fine. But I guess I will take it easy for today."

"Yes. We can't have anyone sick right now. It's a crucial time for all of us and all of mankind."

"I need a bath. I'll come back later." Then after looking at the guild hall again, I open the door and start my walk back to my apartment.

"Lushi, can I come with you?" Happy flies right in front of me and asks. I tilt my head in confusion, "Why is it? Don't you have to accompany Natsu to train with Gray?"

"But I'm worried about you, Lucy. You don't look good." I guess a little company does not hurt. I nod in agreement and we start our walk back to my apartment. Sometimes it's nice to have Happy's company when Natsu's not around. At least he won't keep on calling me weird.

My apartment can be seen. We make a small talk and laugh whenever Happy mentions about how Natsu always fall down into the river whenever he practices his new moves. Then a loud boom sound can be heard.

"Lucy, watch out!" He slams right into my chest. My bottom hits the pavement with a loud thud. "Happy, be careful!"

"Lucy!" A magical orb surrounds Happy and now he is floating against his own will.

"Happy! Who are you and why do you want Happy?" Looking at the assaulter and getting ready to summon my spirit, the enemy just laughs like crazy.

"I don't really need the cat. But I want to crush Fairy Tail! Prepare to die!"

He is too strong for me! Even I try my best to hit him when I'm in my star dress forms, still it doesn't affect him that much. This pisses me off. Happy is still held captive. Even I grow so much stronger than a year before, I cannot save my nakama alone.

"Is this all you got? Looks like Fairy Tail mages is nothing but a bunch of fools! Prepare to die!"

"No one insults a Fairy Tail mage when her fellow nakama is around." A new voice appears out from nowhere. Before the assaulter has the chance to hit me with his magic, a black magic circle appears below him and his movement becomes sluggish.

"Eh, what happened?" He tries to make another power orb with his hands, but nothing comes out.

"Your magic runs out after I suck it out from you." the owner of the new voice appears, revealing herself. She looks like she is in her late teens, looking like around my age. She is wearing a purple one piece. Her feet are bare but didn't seem to get hurt whenever she walks. Her black hair is practically so long that it reaches the floor, dragging along a little bit.

"Errr, you will pay for this!" The attacker tries to run away but lay face first on the floor when a plant grow out from the ground beneath him and wraps his ankle. "Damn you!"

"Spit out what you have to do with a Fairy Tail mage in broad daylight."

"What if I don't?"

More plants appears underneath the ground. A huge rose with lots of thorns wrapped tightly around the man, making him choke, coughing out blood. I know he should be punished for attacking me but still killing him is not one of my plans.

"Please stop, don't kill him! Just let the council handle him!"

My savior faces me, sighing. Then she release him from all the scary looking plants. The man, who is now covering in blood, faints on the spot. Happy was released from being captive and smash himself into me.

"Lushi! I'm so glad you're okay!" I pat him and turn to my savior.

"Thank you for saving me. But do I know you?"

"..." her face looks like someone just kill her whole family in front of her and mocking her. After a few moments of awkward silence, she opens her mouth and says, "I'm Leafy Sequen, Warrod Sequen's daughter."

I gasp and observer her carefully. She doesn't look like her father at all. Though she did use a magic concerning plants, I guess that's the only thing that she is similar to Warrod.

"I didn't know that he got a young daughter like you. Er what I meant is he is very old, considering he is one of the founder of Fairy Tail and so."

"Aye! I think he is a total old man!"

"What year is it now?"

"X792."

She strokes her chin, obviously thinking about something. She mumbles something to herself, "I can't believe I had such a long timeskip..."

Trying my best to strike more conversation with her to know her better, I open my mouth and ask again, "Do you want to come over to the guild?"

"But aren't your body full of bruises and grime?" I glance at myself. She is right. I should probably get a bath and patch up my wounds. "You are right. I should get back to my apartment and patch myself up."

"Don't need the hassle." Leafy's fingers snapped and I can feel something refreshing entering my body. Almost instantly, my bruises and cuts disappeared, and my magic power is restored!

"Woah! Thank you so much!"

"Anyway, can you do me a favor?" I nod without thinking, agreeing and getting ready for her to voice out her request.

"Can you bring me over to the guild? I need to see the master..."

"Aye!"

I should probably stop hanging with Happy too much. Now even I start to talk like him.

AN: It's been some time since I wrote a multichap. I got this inspiration when I was reading chap 452 when they introduce some members of the Spriggan 12. I think something else must be done at Fairy Tail side where a powerful yet mysterious character appears with a surprising situation and background. In the later chapters, her real identity will be revealed. Don't worry, the title of the story will be heavily related with my OC.
