A/N : Okay , everyone . I need to clarify that the previous chapter has a few...errors ,because the format was not according to what I typed out on my laptop . So I shall be modifying it here and there a bit , so please don't feel weird if the format is not as the Introduction , okay ? :) Again , I shall try to post as often as I can ,but no promises . Well , at least not until SPM is over .

Disclaimer : The usual where I do not own any part of Fairy Tail or the characters in it . But I do own this story and my OCs .

Chapter 1 .

Welcome to FioreConnect !

We are glad that you have made it so far , GoldenKey !

Lucy smiled lightly as she stared back at her laptop screen . GoldenKey . That was a pen name she always used whenever she signed off any piece of artwork she had done . Heck , even her signature for her bank card was signed GoldenKey .

Now that we know all about you (No , really , we practically know all your basic information and you're going to add more on later) , we would like you to know more about us . Okay , to be exact , know our turn-on's and turn off's .

It is encouraged that all artwork uploaded , drawn or written on FioreConnect , is ensured that it is copyrighted .

Artwork or Writing work are all rated accordingly to the suitability of viewing . Please ensure that you rate your work accordingly to the age that is set as we do have underage members . (Such as yourself , huh ?)

The blond winced slightly before the ends of her mouth curved upwards and she let out an airy chuckle . She was actually having fun 'conversing' with this site and the best thing was , she was only reading its rules and regulations .

The absolute law of the universe here : No plagiarism . If you are caught plagiarizing another artist's work , you shall be blacklisted . (Cues doom sound effects)

The effects of being blacklisted : The person's account who is blacklisted shall be highlighted a black on his/her background name . This will disable the person from being able to view , kudos , comment , follow or even favorite another's art . Basically : It is a form of suspension from the fabulous FioreConnect . The suspension time varies depending on the severity of one's action . For the worst case scenario , a fellow FioreConnectee can/may be disbanded as a member and banned from the site .

Common courtesy is a fellow virtue that all , if not , most of us have . As for the minority who does not posess this , please be sure to control the monkey and animal in you towards others on FioreConnect . Action will be taken otherwise .

If a regular account user of FioreConnect has had a stroke of luck , somehow , and by any chance becomes a known artist/author in the real world , the fellow FioreConnectee may upgrade their account to the CelebFiCo Premium Account .

Lastly , because it is established that we are all crazy in a way , remember to have fun and let yourself go once in awhile on FioreConnect .

With that , Lucy Heartfilia started her second life as GoldenKey on FioreConnect .

One month .

That was how long the blond female was a member of FioreConnect . And yet , she has not posted a single artwork or piece of hers . She hadn't even interacted with any FioreConnectee . The only thing she has done was browse through everyone else's artwork . There were a few that were jaw-droppingly great while others were an okay . The female seated in front of her laptop now fidgeted with her fingers before glancing at the digital clock that was hung on her wall . 17:49 . She had wasted about two hours , debating whether or not she was to upload the artwork she had taken the liberty to scan on her printer . Sighing once more , Lucy looked back up to the screen of her laptop to 'scrutinize' her own artwork .

It was simply the drawings of all the horoscope symbols . Lucy had altered the shape of the symbols to give it a more rustic look . The base for her background was painted a light orange with hues of purple and yellow , almost as if it was the sunset itself . Then came her favorite horoscope symbol : Aquarius . For some reason or another , Aquarius always reminded her of a very beautiful mermaid with the temperament of an old lady who had gone senile . The colour tone she basically used for Aquarius was blue . Dark blue , Sea blue , Turquoise and Light blue . She did the same for the other symbols , as well , only replacing the colour she saw fit for them .

"You can do this , Heartfilia ."

Lucy Heartfilia fisted her hand in determination before pressing the 'Upload' button located directly at the bottom of her artwork .

Guardians of the Celestial Spirit World

by GoldenKey

The female was in a mix of emotions . Happy for she had done something she never done in her whole life , worried for the fact that someone else may try to steal her artwork and claim it as their own , fear of receiving negative feedback and-

"Stop it , Lucy ! Jeez , just go and get a drink to calm yourself down and come back , will you ?" , Lucy said to herself in an annoyed tone before getting up from her chair and heading to the kitchen .

15 Minutes later :

You have received your very first Kudos from KawaiiDragon for your art !

You have received your very first comment from KawaiiDragon for your art !

You have obtained your very first follower – KawaiiDragon !

You received your very first friend request from KawaiiDragon !

KawaiiDragon has made you one of his Favorite FioreConnectee !

You have received your very first message from KawaiiDragon !

The room of one Lucy Heartfilia was silent for a few minutes as she quietly sipped her tea .

"KawaiiDragon..." , she muttered to herself , as if conflicted , before a word in her notification caught her eye .

"KawaiiDragon is a guy...?" , the blond female asked to no one in particular before pressing the 'Back' button to go back to the previous page which displayed her artwork .

KawaiiDragon gave you a kudos .

Because I did not know that already. , the blond thought to herself before scrolling down the page to the comments .

KawaiiDragon - GoldenKey That is amazing! How did you get your outline so perfect ? Every time I try to shade my outline as a rough test , it can never end up as good as yours ! So frustrating ! ;( Anywaaaays , great job !

To say that Lucy Heartfilia was blushing at the moment was an understatement . Her whole face that was a creamy colour before , was now as red as a certain fruit . She had never receive a compliment on her artwork before , only her grades and herself . Many male students from school would compliment her from time to time of her beauty . The teachers would also say that she had a bright future in front of her if she worked hard enough to get into the top educational institutions in Fiore . But no one has ever told her that her art was amazing , let alone a stranger . The only person she would say that did recognise her ability as an artist and writer was her mother . But then again , she was gone .

GoldenKey - KawaiiDragon . Ugh...I guess I've done a lot of shading ? If you really want some artistic advice on your outline then...try using a blunt side of your utensil . Because the pressure exerted upon using a sharper surface will cause you to not have a proper 'pinpoint' on the paper . And thank you .

That was the first advice she had given anyone dealing with art . Before she could think any further , a light 'beep' sounded from her laptop . Lucy checked to see that she had received a second message from KawaiiDragon .

"Heyya GoldenKey ! How are you doing ? Are you new here ?"

"Ya' know , you can reply me here too . I promise I won't bite =.='' Haha XD ."

Again , this KawaiiDragon user had successfully made her blush lightly .

"Sorry , I'm kind of new here , as you can tell , so I'm still getting used to it . :)"

She was about to close the chat to browse KawaiiDragon's artwork when he replied instantly .

"Oooh , then take your time getting used to FioreConnect ! I've been here for about 3 months , so I don't think I'm that old either o/ ."

Lucy smiled and closed the chat , thinking KawaiiDragon was only welcoming her to this site when she heard another beep coming from the picture of a pink-coloured dragon that was on the right side of her screen . Pink-coloured dragon . At this point , with his name and picture going , she wouldn't be surprised if he told her randomly that he was homosexual .

"By the way , I'm Natsu . What's your name , huh , GoldenKey ? :P"

And chapter 1 is officially done . Thanks for reading ! OH . And if you have any requests for one-shots that you would like me to write for any anime (popular ones , of course , that I would most likely know , but you can try your luck) and any anime pairing , please message me ! :)

Thank you , in advance , for all the follows and favorites :)

.P.S. Review = Love (I missed doing that , haha)

.P.P.S. Did you know that a tomato is actually a fruit ?
