Hey Guys, so I forgot to do the disclaimer in the last chapter, so here it is now!

I do not own Fairy Tail, Hiro Mashima does.

Now that that is out of the way, I would like to address some concern about the total OOCness in this piece. It's meant to be that way, don't worry. As I was writing this I realized that some (if not all characters) were out of character. That's the way it supposed to be. We have never actually seen how Fairy Tail would act in a situation like this, so I found the idea fun to totally change things up into a possibility of how the characters could act. But I hope that soon I can get the chaos under control within the next chapters. Thanks for the constructive criticism JcL107! =D Thanks for reading this and enjoy Chapter Two: Like Sisters

Chapter 2. Like Sisters

Recap:

"So, I ask you once again. Do you accept defeat, or will you accept death?" She asked.

"And once again I give you my answer." Natsu smirked back at her, truly looking like he had lost all sanity. "Please, kill me."

"NO!"

Like Sisters

The scream came from behind Lucy, so she quickly turned around. She and Natsu both knew that he didn't have the strength or magical energy to surprise attack her. So, they both turned their attention the fear stuck voice that rung out behind them. They were surprised, but not for the reason you may think, to see that it was Lisanna.

"No he doesn't! We, as team Natsu accept defeat!" She cried again as she ran to them. Blowing past Lucy like she wasn't the one who had knocked her our seconds ago, and threw herself in front of Natsu.

"Please don't kill him! Please Lucy, I beg you!"

"Lisanna, what are you doing here? I thought I had you out a long time ago." Lucy sighed. She was tired of this whole thing and just wanted to go home.

"You did, but I woke just in time to here Natsu's answer." Lisanna replied, tears in her eyes. Lucy just stared hardly at her, and then smiled softly. She couldn't hate Lisanna no matter how hard she had wanted to in the beginning.

"Fine, you win. I won't kill this pink haired idiot, but I expect you to keep him under control. After all, if it weren't for him, none of this would have happened." Lucy replied, giving a distasteful look down at Natsu. He shot one right back at her. However, Lisanna threw her arms around the blond and was crying even harder.

"Oh thank you so much Lucy! Thank you so, so much!" Lisanna whispered in her ear. Lucy smiled again, and threw her arms around Lisanna in a tight hug.

"I could never stay mad at you, huh?" Lucy whispered back, tears forming in her own eyes.

"No, you couldn't." Lisanna agreed. Then they stood there like that for what felt like a life time, then suddenly it all ended.

"You really haven't changed have you Luce?" Natsu grinned with an evil smile as he grabbed Lucy's hair and shoved Lisanna away from her. The take-over mage fell to the ground with a loud and harsh thud. Natsu held Lucy so that she was hovering inches above the ground. Her face contorted into one of pain and rage as she realized what had happened. Natsu had attacked her while she and Lisanna were hugging right after Lucy had agreed not to kill the pathetic whelp.

"You would use your own girlfriend as a distraction so you could attack me?" She spat at Natsu. His grip tightened on her hair, sending jolts of pain through her scalp. She winced. Sure, she could take some of the world's strongest spells head on, but that didn't mean she was tough all around. A scalp is a hard thing to condition, and she was too much like herself to chop her hair off, so she just accepted the risk that she might get her hair pulled in battle.

"You pathetic monster." She continued. That's when she felt the heat at the base of her throat, and knew that with one more word she would soon be seeing her mother in heaven.

"I wouldn't be spitting out insults right now if I where you." He replied with an almost seductive hiss.

"Natsu! What in Fairy Tail's goof name are you doing!?" Lisanna's high pitched voice squeaked. Natsu looked away from Lucy to his girlfriend, while Lucy was stuck looking into the bright sun. She did, however, listen closely. Lisanna never yelled at anyone, so this was going to be good.

"What does it look like luv? I'm about to show this witch why she no longer is in team Fairy Tail, and why such team is going to win this fight." Natsu replied with soft eyes, then he turned his attention back onto Lucy and intensified the flames in his hand. Lucy couldn't help but scream as the soft skin on her neck started to turn red and burn.

"So you mean this is what it takes to be in team Natsu?!" Lisanna screeched as she stalked up to Natsu. "To kill a friend? To maim a loved one?" Lisanna asked in outrage. Natsu didn't answer. Instead the flames in his hand sputtered, and then went out. Then, with distaste, he dropped the now bleeding blond mage to the ground and kicked her in the ribs.

"Lucy!" Lisanna screamed as she ran to Lucy's aid. The Celestial mage coughed as she tried to clear the blood from her throat. It wasn't like her throat was cut open or anything, but even a nick could lead to perfuse bleeding.

"Come on, I'm taking you to Wendy." Lisanna spoke soothingly as she tried to lift Lucy off the ground. Natsu just stared at them with a blank expression.

"N-no. I'm not losing this even if it kills me." Lucy whispered the best she could. Then, she shakily got to her feet, and stared Natsu strait in the eyes. "As for you, I was going to spare you. I could have killed you without a second's hesitation, but my love for my best friend Lisanna stopped me. But I'm sick of this. I'm sick of showing mercy to pathetic rats like you."

Then, with a deep breath, she closed her eyes and began to pull the magical energy deep inside her to the surface. She could feel it bubbling to the surface in an angry wave of rage and craving for revenge. She knew her eyes were each turning their respective colors. Her left one gold, and her right one black. Until now, no one would know what it meant when they did that, or what other things would change about her as she allowed her magical energy to rise to the surface. As if on cue, she felt her shoulder blades begin to sting, and then tear apart painfully. The transformation following soon after was worth it though as two golden wings with black accents sprouted from her back, along with long claws on her dainty fingers. Opening her eyes, she cut off the increase of magical power flowing to the top and kept it at a constant level. She could actually continue the transformation, but she wanted to save that for when she was fighting a real opponent. Opening her eyes, she saw Natsu staring at her with wide eyes, much like the guild must have been doing. However, her full attention on was on the fire dragon slayer in front of her. She felt the burning in the back of her throat as the magical beam of light and dark mingled in the back of her throat, about to break free. In an angelic voice, she yelled with conviction and pride,

"Roar of the elemental dragon: Lights Destruction!" Then, she dropped her jaw and let the magic blast out of her. A blinding black light shot out of her mouth, struck the dazed Natsu, and exploded into a gold inferno. As the beam ended, Lucy collapsed onto the ground. She was still able to see Natsu though, and boy was she glad that she could. When the dust had settled, you could see a massive crater in the middle of the arena, with Natsu at the very bottom of the hole. He was completely out and bleeding profusely from his hands. No doubt he tried to block the blast with a roar of his own, and there was also no doubt that he failed. He was still breathing though, and that was good enough for Lucy. She had never meant to kill him, but she sure wanted him to feel some sort of pain. Finally the fight was over and the anouncers voice echoed throughout the stands.

"Ladies and gentlemen we have our winner! Lucy Heartfilia of Fairy Tail, ex member of Team Natsu!"

Lucy smiled with pride and joy and let the blackness swell around her.

At the guild

Immediately after the fight ended both teams were rushed to the guild for medical treatment. Natsu was in the worst condition, so Wendy started on him first. It was going to take some time to heal him. While he was being healed by Wendy, Grey, Lucy, Erza, and Lisanna were all being tended to. Lisanna was in very good condition though. She only had a few cuts and bruises from being tossed around so much, but she didn't even have a concussion from when Lucy knocked her out. Grey was in pretty good shape as well. He, however, did have a concussion and had some nasty cuts to deal with on his arm when he tried to block Lucy's Ice Dragon. Her arrows didn't leave a scratch on him though. Next up was Erza, who wasn't looking to good. She would be okay of course, but she had bigger things to deal with. Lucy's kick to her ribs had caused most of them to snap in half, and the punch to the face had left a serious bruise right in the middle of her face and a nasty concussion. She wasn't going to be able to go on any S-Class missions soon. In fact, she was going to need to give up questing for a while. Lucy was by far the worse out of them. Her throat had a small but major gash and still bleeding profusely. The skin around it was scorched so it was going to be a very painful thing to heal, even if it was Wendy who was doing the healing. Then the rest of her body was very sick. She had suppressed her magical energy for too long and it was burning up her insides. Soon enough she would be able to do this like Erza and Jellal, but right now her body was still getting used to the deadly power. She had a few cuts and bruises, but those were from the S-Class missions she went on. So, the biggest thing they (the medics) were her inner body and throat.

Mira walked into hospital ward of the guild and saw Erza and Grey laying on their respective beds, both of them asleep and people buzzed around them like a hive of bees. She walked over and sat in a chain in between the beds so she could visit with both of them. A few beds down and on the opposite side was Lucy. For a second Mirajane felt happiness rise in her. Good, that blond delve deserved to be in pain right not after all she had done to the guild. But then she felt guilt and sadness explode in her. What exactly has Lucy done to the guild anyway? She helps pay damage fees, she always so nice to those who talk to her (which weren't very any people) and she was a brave, strong woman who the little kids in the guild looked up to. She could think of at least one person who secretly looked up to the blond mage.

Flashback

"Mira, why is it no one talks to Lucy anymore?" Wendy asked in her sweet, quriouse tone. Mira turned to her and smiled as she rested her arms on the bar.

"Well, she did horrible things to the guild Wendy, that's why. That's also the reason Team Natsu kicked her off their team. Good thing they did too." Mira replied without any hint of feeling guilty for the way she just insulted Lucy.

"Really?" Wendy asked, her eyes wide in shock.

"Really." Mira replied with a smile. She was so glad she could help this child see the monster that Lucy was. Suddenly, Wendy looked confused.

"What did she do?" She asked in a whisper. Mira's smile grew as she opened her mouth to dive into the story, but then realized there was no story for her to tell.

"Well, umm…you see..uhhh…" She stammered, trying to think of the reason they all hated Lucy.

"I'm asking because I know she helps out with damage fees, and she's always nice to me when I walk by her." Wendy continued, now smiling. "I remember this one day when I was walking home from the guild when I was crying about how Romeo was ignoring me. I was walking on the stone path next to the river when all of a sudden I tripped and fell in. I panicked and began to flail around. I don't know how to swim very well, and I knew I was going to drown. My head went below the water and all I can remember was seeing this figure swimming towards me, and then grabbing my hand. The next thing I knew I was on a soft couch by a warm fire. I sat up and saw Lucy in the other room, the kitchen, making something that smelt really good." Wendy began her tail, Mira now listening intently.

"I had heard all the rumors about her, and how a person needed to avoid her at all costs, but she just looked so…fragile. She wasn't wearing any of her weapons like she normally does around the guild, and she was wearing black sweat pants with a pink t-shirt. She looked over at me and I dove behind the couch. She frowned, and then walked up to me and squatted down so we were the same height.

"How are you doing Wendy? You had a pretty nasty fall today and you almost drowned." She told me in a concerned voice. It had been forever since I had heard her speak, and I was too caught up in the richness of its loving tones to answer. I guess she thought I was afraid of her, which I was.

"Look, I know all the rumors that are going around about me, and I can honestly say that they aren't true. But I also know I can't make you believe anything you don't want to, so you're free to go whenever you like." Lucy sighed sadly as she stood up. "But you're also welcome to stay for dinner." She added quickly as she walked back into the kitchen to stir a big pot."

"Well what did you do?" Mira asked, eager to know. Wendy smiled slyly.

"I stayed for dinner."

Mira's jaw dropped. "You what!? Do you know how dangerous that was!? Did she hurt you? If she hurt you I'm going to personally kill her!" Mira raged. Wendy quickly shushed her.

"Of course she didn't hurt me. In fact, she was like a sister to me. We ate at her small table and then talked for hours. I talked about things happening in the guild because no one tells her anything, and she told me about her S-Class missions. They sound really dangerous. Then she told me she would walk me home, and the whole way there she told me about everything she does for the guild and how people still ignore and hate her." Wendy concluded. Then she sighed and looked down.

"You know, Lucy has been the closest thing to family I have had since coming to the guild, and now I want to be just like her. I want to become strong and loving. I want to find nice friends who really care about me. But most of all, I want to make her proud. As she walked me home she told me she didn't have much to live for. I want to be her reason for living." Wendy declared. Mira just stood there, eyes popping out of her head and jaw on the floor. Wendy smiled at her, thanked her for the tea she was sipping, and walked out of the guild, mumbling something about going to find Lucy. Finally recovering, Mira vowed she was going to get revenge on Lucy for corrupting Wendy. Even if it made the little bluenett cry.

Present:

As Mira thought about that day, she felt something change in side her. She had failed to give an explanation for why Lucy was such a horrible person, and why they all hated her so much. Looking around, she was she was the only one in the room now. All the medics have left having done all they could for the rest of Team Natsu and Lucy. Well, almost everyone. Lisanna sat in a chair next to Lucy's bed, smiling as she spoke. This too puzzled the white haired mage. You would have thought that Lucy would hate Lisanna the most out of everyone in the guild, but those two were like sisters. They laughed, talked, occasionally fought, and then made up again like family. Mira began to realize that she herself had been becoming more distant to her younger sister. When had that happened? Caught up in her thoughts, she couldn't stand it anymore. Wishing Grey and Erza the best recovery, she walked over to her dear sister and the now awake blond mage.

"Lisanna, will you please go and see if Wendy is almost done healing Natsu?" She asked politely, completely ignoring Lucy.

"Sure thing sis!" Lisanna chirped back, gave Lucy a quick hug, and then exited the room. Lucy coughed, and then focused her attention onto Mira who was now glaring down at her.

"So, you've some to finish me off?" She croaked. With her throat scorched and bleeding, it hurt like no other to talk. But if she was going to die, then she was sure as hell going to leave an impression on her killer. Seeing as she was unable to move all she had was her voice.

"No, I'm not here to kill you." Mira sighed as she slumped into the chair Lisanna was sitting in. Lucy looked at her in confusion.

"Why?" She asked, now feeling drained and tired as well. Man, today was not her day.

"Well, for one, Lisanna and Wendy would never forgive me. And two, you've done nothing to deserve death." Mira muttered quietly.

"W-what did y-you say?" Lucy stuttered in shock. Mira sighed, and then shook her head.

"I'm saying that I was wrong about you. All this time I have convinced myself that you had done something wrong, and that I needed to hate you for the rest of my life. But now I see that I am the one who deserves to be hated. I am the one who just automatically thought you were a horrible person just because Team Natsu was being horrible to you."

Lucy sniffled. Why did emotional things make her cry so easily? "What changed your mind?" She whispered hoarsely. Mira looked up from the floor, and gave her one of her old, warm smiles.

"Seeing you with Lisanna, you bring this sort of light out of her that I never could. Even before we all thought she was dead I had never seen her as happy as she is with you. You are the sister she deserves. The one she never had." Mira choked out, tears filling her own eyes.

"You have no idea how much I've missed talking to you." Lucy spoke through tears of her own. It felt so good to have one of her old friends talking, smiling, and being nice to her again. She had almost forgotten what it was like to be treated with love and respect.

"And you have no idea how much it hurt me in the beginning to see you change. Or, so I thought. But you really have remained the same on the inside, even with this new power of yours that could wipe out team Natsu in five minutes. Now I see that this whole time not once you have said something horrible about Team Natsu, and the only reason you fought with them today was to prove your worth." Mira smiled. A loud creak echoed through the big room as Wendy walked in. She walked right part Grey and Erza and strait to Lucy.

"Well, looks like the doctor is here to fix you all up. Maybe when you get out of here we can go out for tea and catch up on things? Maybe ask Wendy and Lisanna if they want to join?" Mira asked Lucy, truly wanting to start over with their forgotten and abandoned friendship. Lucy smiled her soft smile that gave hope to even thought who had no reason to live.

"I would like that very much." She whispered. Mira nodded, and then left the room as Wendy approached the bed.

"How are you feeling?" She asked in her soft, small voice. Her sun dress was soaked in dried blood, no doubt from healing Natsu.

Lucy opened her mouth to speak when her words were interrupted by a chain of painful coughs. "H-how is h-he?" Lucy sputtered as she finished her coughing. Wendy, now looking at her with tears in her eyes, just nodded and gave a small smile.

"He'll be okay. His hands took on most of the blast but some of the darkness was able to hit him in his right eye. It's going to be alright but it took a lot of time and effort to heal him. Gosh Lucy, I had no idea that kind of power even existed. He's lucky to be alive." Wendy replied in her same small voice. Lucy just nodded, and then began to drift off into sleep.

"Wendy, when I wake up, do you promise you'll have tea with Lisanna, Mira and I?" She asked as the darkness caressed her.

"I wouldn't miss it for the world." Wendy replied, then she placed her hands on Lucy's throat and began the long process of healing her.
