Chapter 1 - Heros and Villians
Yo, Lucy here! Sorry that our last meeting was cut short. I had something to attend to. Well, let's start the story.
It was almost Hallow'een. The time where the delinquents around our area become active.
I was getting ready for school. We don't have a uniform so I put on my usual: a pink tube with a green tank top over, a blue mini skirt, brown belt and brown boots. I strapped my keys to my belt. They were my lucky charms. I had fifteen, at the time. I tied my hair up in my usual side pony tail with a pink ribbon and I picked up my bag.
Outside it was sunny but something wasn't right. It was too quiet. Angel and Diamond skipped ahead. They weren't really 'ugly sisters' as they were both extremely pretty. And extremely stupid. They disappeared around the corner and they came. The Thunder Riderz. The legends of Baram Academy. The six biggest thugs around. Thaira, Addera, Cloena, Daichi, Tuju and Mark. Don't ask. They backed me into a corner and Daichi smiled, his dark hair falling over his bright green eyes.
"Look here, we found Lucy Heartfilia. The 'astronomer'." His friends laughed. Cloena had pale blonde hair and red eyes. Addera had short brown hair and purple snake-like eyes. Thaira had long black hair and dark brown eyes. Tuju and Mark both had black hair and grey eyes. They were all tall and tanned and had their eyebrows furrowed while smiling. It made them look positively evil. Addera grabbed my bag as I tried to walk away.
"Don't you have something for us, Heartfilia?" I glared back at her.
"No, I don't. If you would kindly let go now, Snake." Thaira grabbed my arm and Tuju grabbed my collar. They weren't going to let me get away. The other three advanced further. Cloena spoke.
"You crossed the line, Blondie." Mark raised his hand back to punch and I closed my eyes, waiting for the impact. It never came. I opened my eyes to find all of the Thunder Riderz on the ground and a guy my age standing in front of me.
"No, you did." He said, standing up and slinging his bag over his shoulder. He turned to me and I saw his eyes for the first time. They were black, not scary but warm. They looked like two gems, onyx gems, planted in his head. His pink spikes fluttered in the breeze. I knew him right away. Natsu Dragneel. The Salamander, he's a Fairy Tail man.
"Are you alright?"
"Perfectly fine thank you, Natsu." He seemed shocked that I knew him.
"I'm in your school. Fairy Tail is a big thing there, you know." He laughed and scratched the back of his neck with a toothy grin on his face.
"I guess. You know my name, it's only fair that I know yours too." I smiled at him. He's kind. Not what you would imagine in the popular crowd.
"Lucy Heartfilia."
"Well, Lucy. I feel obliged to walk you to school as your personal body guard." He bowed to me, the grin never leaving his face. That was the beginning of my miracle. Him.
We walked to school together. Him, me and his little brother, Happy. Happy's eleven and has blue hair and the same black eyes as Natsu. Their dad runs Dragneel Enterprises. The were surprised to know that a nobody like me was the daughter of Jude Heartfilia. He's the founder of Heartfilia Studios. Seriously people, what's up with using your last names as names for companies? But anyway. On with the story.
Happy went to the section of school for the younger kids while Natsu and I continued to the back of the school.
Natsu saw some of his friends and dragged me over to them. I wasn't sure how this would work, I'm not the kind of person that's comfortable with attention. I also felt that things were going too well for me. Something had to give, and it did.
"Lucy!" Diamond was running up to me, Angel at her heels. They were shocked to see the group I was with but Angel smirked.
"We need you to collect the dry cleaning after school and we also need you to go grocery shopping and you have to get Rini from the groomer's and...what else was there, Di?" Diamond picked up on Angel's plan and added her part with a sneer.
"You have to stop by the studio and work 'til nine." I sighed. I knew all this, there was no reason for them to repeat it for all the world to hear.
"Yes, Angel-sama and Diamond-sama. It will be done." The Fairy Tail crowd stared at me, probably wondering why I was taking orders from the 'terrible twins'. I decided not to stay and chat. I ran to my locker. The one chance I had to actually make friends and they just had to blow it for me.
I sighed. It's not like I wasn't used to it. No one except for Yukino ever talked to me. Well, I guess it's going to be another day in loner-ville, population: me.
And, worst of all, history awaits.
I had this story waiting for sooooooo long, that's why I'm uploading. Sorry if I got your hopes up.
