Disclaimer- I don't own Fairy Tail, simple disclaimer, nothing fancy
A.N. So new story I've been wanting to publish for like forever but have kept forgetting, oops~ Anyway, this is super cringy, I know it so no need to tell me. With that, as I love to say, Have Fun and Read On!
Angela, or Angie, was a normal 17 year old girl, she loves to watch her favorite animes, especially fairy tail, that's her favorite, or at least it was up until a year ago when her mother died in childbirth, and on top of it, 6 months ago when a horrible accident happened resulting in her father's death, now she was left alone, emancipated, to care for her 1-year old brother, Edward.
Angie's P.O.V.:
I just got back from work; I work 1 full time job, which I work at on all business days. I actually graduated high school early, I skipped 2nd, 4th, 5th , 7th, 9th, and the 11th grades, so I graduated High school at 12, I am a lawyer, I just finished my 6th year in college, and I have my own apartment. I can also speak four different languages other than English; Japanese, Russian, Spanish, and French. Yes, I am only seventeen and caring for a baby, which is, a lot of work, but I get it done. Eddie is now 9 months, and I have a daycare watch him while I am at work. I have known since I was about 5 that I was adopted. Eddie was a miracle, and not, since mom did pass during delivery. Dad went a little crazy with work after that. Though, he did leave us, or me, a large amount of money to use in the case of his death. At least he had a backup plan if things went south, like they did. My dad always resented me, mom was always the one who would be there at award ceremonies, and there to help me pick out my first bra. I loved my mom so much, and still do, I just wish she was here now.
I strolled my little brother into the apartment, it was a 2 bedroom, nothing fancy, it had a kitchen, a living room, and one bathroom, "Okay Eddie, we're home." I put my purse down on the counter.
"Mama, down." Edward, for whatever reason, had been calling me mama; I had a hunch that the people at the daycare had a picture of me, and were teaching him to call me mama. He started talking about a 6 month ago, that was only mama, waggle(water), food, and a couple other animal names, his vocabulary has definitely increased.
I had tried correcting him on the 'mama' thing a couple of times before, "Okay, just a second." I said as I turned around, I bent down, undid the latch on the stroller, and picked him up, I then set him down on the play mat in the living room, and he went off to one of his toys, "you know that we're going right back out to go to the market after I get changed, and change you, right?"
"Okay." He said, when I heard, "The cow says moo, the duck says quack, now what does the cow say?" I heard one of his toys say, "Moo! Duck says quack!"
I giggled and went into my room with the door open incase anything happened, I could just run out, and plus, he's a baby so anything he sees, he won't remember in a couple of months, maybe a year or two. I suddenly heard the game stop and a Fairy Tail theme come on, I smiled, I had a lot of baby shows, but Eddie really enjoyed Fairy Tail, he had seen as much of it as I had, which was all of it. He has jet black hair, and the most beautiful and adorable onyx eyes. He is the best little brother a sister could ask for, he rarely cries, and when he does it's because he's missing me. I finished getting dressed and I wore a white T-shirt with two interlocked hearts on the front, which showed off my D cups, and a pair of jeans, I threw on a jacket, I live in Florida, have for as long as I can remember, it was a closed adoption so my parents didn't even know where I was originally from, so I was just a Floridian, with the added on perk of hating any cold what so ever, low 60's are disliked but not hated, anything below that I hate. I love the warmer climates. Its December now, and it is around 54˚F (12˚C, 285˚K) so I bundled my brother up, to where he wouldn't roast but wouldn't feel the cold. "Okay, come on, let's go." I picked him up from in front of the T.V. and set him in the stroller, stuck the baby bag in the under compartment. I then picked up my purse and buckled him up. I pushed him out the front door and locked it. We walked to the marketplace. Now it was around seven. So the sun had just set. We went around. I picked up some meats, veggies, and a couple other household necessities.
"Are we going home now?" Eddie asked.
"Yeah." I smiled at him. We were walking down a semi empty street, no one was around but us and a couple of guys that I had noticed were following us since a couple blocks out of the marketplace.
"Hey Blondie!" one of the men called to me.
I saw an ally way that I was pretty sure I could turn left at the end of it and lose those pervy creeps. So, I went down it and to no one's surprise, the men followed me, I stopped when I realized that I had the wrong ally way, I couldn't turn or anything, "What do you want?!" I asked.
A different one than before chuckled, "Isn't it obvious, we want your body."
I was getting scared now, and apparently so was Eddie, "Mama!?" He asked worried.
"It'll be okay." I whispered to him, while trying to convince myself of the statement I just told my brother.
"Ah, a new mother, so young too, and I don't see a father." A third one said, there were five total.
I held onto the stroller defensively, "Stay-st-stay away." I told them.
"Oh come on baby, we just want a little look." The first one said, when a fourth one came up to me and tugged on my shirt, trying to pull it off, that's when I hit him in the, family jewels area if you know what I mean.
He instantly pulled back covering the place I had just harmed, "You little bitch!"
In hindsight, what I did wasn't the smartest move because thing 5 or the fifth one pulled out a gun and said, "You shouldn't have done that!"
He proceeded to shoot me in my left shoulder and I let out one hell of a scream, while holding onto the stroller, and closing my eyes, "NO!" I don't know why, but at that moment, I felt like something was changing and I was the cause, when it stopped I felt like half my energy was gone, I figure it was just the gunshot wound though.
"Woowwww" I heard Edward say.
I opened my eyes, still in pain, but saw that the area around us had completely changed, I figured I had to have passed out or something because this definitely wasn't Florida. A person that looked exactly like me but with different hair, different clothes and well, no gunshot wound, came running towards us with a man with pink hair and the strangest looking cat I ever saw. I realized that they may have been with the group of men that just harmed me, so, not wanting Eddie to get hurt too, I jumped in front of the stroller, agitating my shoulder even more, "What do you want?" I asked, while clenching my teeth.
The one that looked like me, I'll call her my look alike, spoke, "Don't worry; I'm not going to hurt you. Hey, you're bleeding, let us help. What happened?" She asked in Japanese.
She didn't seem mean or with intention to harm, so my attention then focused on the man with pink hair, because as much as I believed this was a dream, no dream ever has had this much pain, that's why you say pinch me if you think you're in a dream because you don't normally hurt in dreams, so I am sort of sure that this isn't a dream, so I also don't know how I got to Japan if this is a dream, "are you going to hurt us?" I asked the pink haired man in Japanese, still in my defensive pose in front of my brother.
"What? No, unless we have a reason to, which we don't." He responded, the cat nodded like it understood. I stood up, as best as I could and got behind the stroller, "And why do you look and smell like Lucy?"
"Lucy?" I asked.
"That's me, but could you please tell us what happened while we take you to our friend, she's the best doctor in town?" Lucy hopefully asked.
"Okay, come on Eddie." I tried pushing the stroller with my one arm but it really put a number on me.
"Okay mama." He replied. I could tell, while they may not speak English, they understand the word Mama, and who Eddie was directing it to.
I felt like I turned 100 shades of red, the two strangers both looked at me with both amazement and disgust, "I'm his sister, not his mother, he just calls me mama." I explained.
"Oh that makes more sense, here let me push that." Pink haired guy offered.
"Are you sure?" I questioned.
"Yeah, you're hurt, it's the most I can do, and I sense strong magic energy coming from you." He stated.
I only processed the first part of his statement, "Well thank you." I paused for a moment, "Wait! Magic energy, okay, I must be delirious or something from lack of blood, because magic isn't real."
"Mama, they are Natsu, Happy, and Lucy!" Eddie said excitedly, I had been teaching him a bit of all the languages I know, including Japanese, and thanks to me having him watching some of Fairy Tail in Japanese, he knows the word Magic very well.
I sighed, "I should have known something like this would happen. Edward, Lucy, Natsu, and Happy are all fictional characters; they are just in the show." I told him, still in extreme pain.
"Hmm, if i'm right and that kid just called us by our names, and by your reaction then I think you think we aren't real so, no, I'm Happy, this is Natsu, and this idiot is Lucy." The cat said.
"How far are we from the doctor?" I asked Lucy.
"Only a couple more blocks." She answered.
"Good, because I just heard your cat talk." I told her.
"No, you really did, I am Lucy, and these are my comrades Natsu and Happy. We are members of the Fairy Tail guild." Lucy told me.
"Ohhh, Cosplay, I got it, you guys are just cosplaying. Great job by the way, I have no idea how you got happy right." I told them, talking is helping me forget the pain.
"I don't know what you're talking about but we can touch on that subject later. How did you get that wound?" Lucy asked. 'Thanks for reminding me' I thought sarcastically.
"Oh, I was coming home from the market and a couple of men started following me, I tried to get away but ended up backed into an ally way, they wanted a show… if you know what I mean, and I'm just not that type of girl. So when one of them got too handsy I hit im' (him) where it hurts, then another on pulled out a gun and shot me. I screamed, then I was suddenly out of the ally way with my brother where and when you found me." I explained.
I was starting to get dizzy, when they stopped, I could have sworn I saw the fairy tail building in front of me and hear Eddie say, "Fairy Tail Mama!"
While 'Lucy' said, "Here we are." But I don't know, my world went black and I went numb, I figured I would hit the ground.
