Gillys POV

There's not much I know about the pink haired man and the blonde woman in all of my parents old photo albums, I do know that they are always together, and smiling, whether they are in a hospital bed or dancing under rainbow sakuras.

I know their names were Lucy Heartfillia and Natsu Dragneel, and we go to a small house in the woods where two graves reside each year without fail, I know that the graves are Lucy's and Natsu's and that they died on the same day.

I know that whenever I ask about them that all the other adults become tense and quiet and sad, so I learned to stop asking, I know that when we go to their graves each year that people are always crying and muttering about how they put life into the guild and how it's too quiet without them and that why oh why did they take that job.

I know that Aunt Mira and Master Laxus's sixteen year old daughter knew them, and that sometimes she'll mention how an Aunt Lucy always treated her to milkshakes when she was down, and how she could never go to King Charlies ever again because it was painful and to many memories resided there.

I know that the magic whip above the job board was Lucy's and that whenever there is a party that Aunt Mira always makes a fire whiskey and a strawberry daiquiri and sets them aside, as if she's expecting them to walk in any moment.

I don't know how they died, or why everyone loved them so so much that even ten years after their death people are still mourning. I don't know why Uncle Gray always looks a little bit sad when he gets into a brawl. Or why they might as well be worshipped every July seventh, the date of their demise.

I don't know anything about the blue cat with wings, like Carla or Panther Lilly. I don't know why people have always avoided Strawberry Street, even though it's the fastest way to the train station.

One thing I know for sure is that when they died, a little part of each Fairy Tail member died with them. I know that Aunt Mira's youngest twins look and act just like them, and that when little Lara, the cute, sweet, blond haired, brown eyed twin, does something like kick Nicky, the other pink haired, onyx eyed, impulsive, fight hungry twin, everybody stares at them like they're seeing somebody else, and in their minds, maybe they are seeing someone else, maybe in their minds, their seeing a busty blonde that smelled of strawberries, or a loud mouthed, fight-hungry pinkette.

One thing I realized when I was little, was that people thought of Natsu and Lucy as the embodiment of fairy tail, flawed, powerful in their own right, with hearts of gold. And that's why I think that through Lara and Nicky, they are getting another chance to reclaim the life that was ripped away to soon.
