Chapter 1 The Fire

Fire was burning all around yet it wasn't painful it was calming, despite being surrounded by this brilliant flame Lucy wasn't frightened just the opposite she felt safe like nothing in this world could harm her, as long as she stayed in its warm embrace. Where did this fire come from? Why it feel so familiar?

"Lucy?"

who's calling out to me? she pondered

"Lucy!"

this persons voice sounded familiar

"Lucy wake up!"

with that her eyes snapped open, she was still a bit groggy but it was hard not to notice the blue cat floating above her bed.

"Happy what do you want...AND WHAT ARE YOU DOING IN MY HOUSE!" she shrieked at him

"Natsu asked me to come get you we've got a job,he's waiting at the train station" he replied plainly ignoring her outburst

"Well how did you get in I'm sure I locked the window before I went to bed?" she asked as she began getting ready

"Why would I come in from the window? Only weirdos do that."

"Thats how you guys usually come in!" she barked

Finally ready she asked "So whats this job anyway?"

"He wouldn't say he just wanted me to come get you and to hurry, he seemed excited though." the blue cat replied

"Huh, this can't be good well lets go."

With that they set off for the train station but one thing that was still stuck in Lucy's mind was her dream why was she surrounded by fire? Why did it feel so familiar? She pushed these thoughts from her mind when they reached the Magnolia Train Station.

It didn't take long to find Natsu but then again not very many people have rose colored hair

"Yo what took ya?" he asked with his usual bright smile. "It doesn't matter anyway this job is perfect for you Lucy."

"How so?" she wondered

"The reward is 1,000,000 jewels plus theres a rumor that one of those sodium keys is in the area."

"Its Zodiac keys." she corrected him. "Which one do you know?"

"Hmm I think it was Libra." he said with a face of deep concentration.

"Really!" she was practically glowing with excitement. "Lets go! Lets go!" as she ran inside the train.

"I didn't think she would get that excited." Natsu said to Happy.

"Aye."

The train wasn't moving long before Natsu turned a sickly blue.

"Natsu where are we going anyway?" Happy asked

"T..Tristana." he replied in between fits of nausea.

Just as they got settled the train jolted causing all their luggage to fall from the carrying compartment above them to fall, one of their bags hit Natsu on the head knocking him out. When every thing settled she realized Natsu had fallen onto her lap. She nearly pushed him off when she realized that he had a smile on his face Lucy couldn't help but think he was cute when he slept like this.

"You llliiiike him!" came from the other side of the cabin which caused her to turn a deep scarlet.

"Shut up cat!"

When Natsu woke he realized two things: one the train had stopped moving (thank god) and two he was laying on Lucy's lap, who had fallen asleep. Still feeling woozy he took this time to observe her sleeping face.

"Was she always this pretty?" he mumbled to himself.

"HM- what did you say Natsu?" she asked as she stirred from her slumber.

"Nothing! Yosh lets get to work!"he said excitedly as walked out of the train.

"By the way Natsu I never got a chance to ask but what is the job anyway?" Happy asked flying on to his shoulders.

an wicked smile crept onto his face "HEH-HEH we're going to destroy a god!"
