Lucy found herself laying face down in a huge puddle of what kind of felt like mud. Except, when she wiped off her eyes, she found that the mud was a light pink color. It also had a strange smell to it, almost like...

"Strawberry cake frosting?" Lucy thought aloud after scooping up some of the ground and tasting it.

She looked around and found a path with large red boulders on the sides. Upon closer examination of the boulders, they turned out to be giant strawberries.

"Okay... giant strawberries... ground made of cake frosting... I guess that means I'm on a giant cake, which can only mean...", she tasted the ground again, just to be sure it really was a giant cake, which it was, "Yep, Erza's dream. Okay. So where's Erza?"


Lucy continued along the path, taking in the scenery around her. In the distance, she could see hills and mountains of one-layer, two-layer, and three-layer cakes. The largest of them was a four- layer cake at the end of the path.

"Hmm, maybe I'll be able to find Erza if I climb this."

Lucy pulled out one of her keys.

"Open, gate of the maiden!"

She waited for Virgo to appear, but nothing happened.

"Hm, I guess since this is a dream, these keys aren't real. And since it's not my dream, I don't think I can just will myself up the mountain."

So she began to climb this impossibly tall cake mountain. At the top, she was surprised to see all of her guild members, including herself.

'Well, I guess this is a dream. And I'm technically just a visitor here anyways, so why couldn't there be two of me?' she thought.

They were all facing her, sitting in rows of chairs that had one large walkway through the middle. They were all formally dressed, so Lucy guessed Erza was dreaming about some big event. The only two people who weren't sitting were the people next to her, which were master Makarov and some vaguely familiar blue-haired man.

Finally, Lucy saw Erza standing at the opposite end of the isle, in a wedding dress and holding a bouquet.

'She's dreaming of her wedding,' Lucy thought, 'Wow, she looks beautiful, she looks stunning, she looks...' Lucy took a good look at the bride to be's face, '...mortified!'

"Erza, what's wrong?" she asked her, but the red-head just kept standing there. Makarov had asked her something, but she ignored him. "Huh? Yeah, sure." she said, "Erza, what is is?"

"Good." said Makarov, "and do you, Jellal Fernandez, take Lucy Heartphilia to be your lawfully wedded wife?"

"I do." said the blue haired man.

"Okay. You may now kiss the bride."

"Wait what?" said a surprised Lucy as Jellal pulled her in for a kiss. She quickly pushed him away just as they made lip contact and turned back to Erza, whose shock had now turned to anger.

"Wait! Erza!" the blond exclaimed, "It's not what it looks like! I just got here, I didn't even know what was happening!"

But Erza wasn't listening. Instead, she pulled out one of her swords and started screaming as she charged at Lucy.


Lucy was now running for her life from the crazed bride, trying to get her to calm down.

"Erza wait! Stop this!"

But Erza still wasn't listening. She was to busy slashing her sword and screaming at Lucy.

"First I lose Jellal to that damned Tower of Heaven! Then I met Natsu, but you had to take him! And now Jellal's back, but now you're going to take Jellal, too!"

Erza now had Lucy cornered against a cake wall, her sword raised in the air. She brought it down with full force.

"WAIT! I'm the real Lucy!" Lucy screamed just as the sword was about to hit the hand she raised to defend against it.

"What?" said a confused Erza.

"This is all a dream. I would never take Jellal away from you!"

"This is, ah... uh..." Erza took a few steps back, still confused. Then she turned back to Lucy with a serious tone, "If this is a dream, and I'm dreaming right now, then how would you know that!"

"Because I'm Lucy from the real world! I did a spell, and now I guess I can visit other people's dreams."

"Oh. Well I guess that makes sense." Erza said, completely accepting the crazy idea.

"It does?"

"Yeah. I think I've heard of this type of magic before. It's called Dreamscape, and it was supposedly able to allow people to walk in other people's dreams. I thought it was only a legend, though. So..." Erza turned to Lucy with a hopeful expression, "How many dreams have you visited? What happened in them? Anything that was... embarrassing?"

"Sorry to disappoint you, but yours is the only dream I've visited. And it was kind of an accident. I'm still not sure how I feel about this whole 'walking in other's dreams' thing. Seems like an invasion of privacy."

"Oh, come on. This was the spell you've been working so hard on to decipher. Why not have a little fun with it? And besides, even if something happens like what just did, they probably won't even remember. I mean, how many of your dreams do you remember completely?"

Erza had a point, Lucy couldn't remember many of her dreams, even if she had just woken up from them, so it'd be unlikely her guild mates would remember her in their dreams. And, she had been working hard on that spell, so why couldn't she mess around with it a little?

"Maybe. ..Although I did kind of almost just die..."

"Yeah... Sorry about that."

They both stood in silence for a moment. Then the blonde decided to speak up.

"So... you liked Natsu?" asked Lucy.

"I don't know," responded Erza, looking down, "maybe I did. I thought I felt something for him, but it just wasn't the same as it is with Jellal." Erza then turned her head back to the Celestial spirit mage. "Don't get me wrong, he's a great guy. And a powerful wizard. But I think that I think of him more like a close friend or brother more than anything else."

"Okay, I'll agree with that. But what did you mean I took him from you?"

"Come on, I know what you two do. Always going on missions together, always hanging out in the guild hall together, him staying at your house for the night..."

Lucy's face turned a bright red. "It's not like that!" she exclaimed, "We're just close friends. And it's not like I invite him to my house. He just breaks in whenever he wants and I have to kick him out."

"Whatever you say..."

"I'm done talking about this." Lucy looked around a bit, "How do I get out of here?"

Both if the female mages seemed puzzled, looking around as if that will give them a clue.

"Well, didn't you start out in your own dream? How did you get out of there?"

Lucy considered this for s moment, then she answered "I just kind of wished for an exit. Then one appeared and I started falling."

"That's it!" Erza exclaimed as she picked up the spirit mage.

"Wait! Erza! What are you doing?"

Erza brought Lucy to the edge of the cake mountain. It seemed like a very far drop.

"Wait! Your going to throw me?!" Lucy screamed, "I already said I would never take Jellal from you!"

"It's not that. You said you were falling when you left your dream?"

"Yes..."

"So falling must be the way you can leave peoples dreams!"

"I'm not sure I like your logic."

"It's just like those dreams where you fall and wake up before you hit the ground. Except instead of waking up from your own dream, you're leaving someone else's. And besides, the ground below is made of cake. You'll be fine."

"Do I at least get a say in this?"

"Nope."

"Are you still somewhat upset about the whole Jellal thing?"

"Yep."

Erza then threw Lucy off of the cake cliff, making her plummet to the frosting-covered surface below.

"Bye, Lucy! Be sure to tell me about the other dreams you visit!"

"ERZAAAAA!"

But before Lucy could hit the ground, she was once again surrounded by a vortex of pink clouds.

Lucy found herself back in the guild hall. She looked on the table in front of her to find Erza's sleeping body, the dream she just left right above it. Erza had a bottle of booze in her hand, and for some reason she had a wedding dress on.

'That must be why she dreamed about her wedding,' Lucy figured, 'But why is she wearing a wedding dress in the first place?'

Lucy looked at he clock. Almost a half hour had past since she had gone into Erza's dream, though it felt like much longer.

"Oh well, no time to worry about that now," said the Celestial spirit mage, "Now... whose dream to enter next..."


Erza, earlier at the party:

"NATSU! BRING ME MORE BOOZE!"

"Aye, Erza-sama!"

The pink-haired flame mage ran for his life, desperate not to upset a drunk Erza. He was afraid of her enough when she was sober.

"NOW," Erza exclaimed, "LET'S LIVEN THIS PARTY UP, WITH..." Erza reached behind her back and pulled out a cup with numbered popsicle sticks in it. "...GUILD MASTER'S GAME!'

Everyone around her fled. They had heard the rumors of what happened at that Christmas party, and while they found it funny, there was no way in HELL that they wanted to live through it.

"BABIES!" Erza called.

Natsu then came running back with a bottle of liquor.

"Here you go!" he said fearfully.

"ABOUT TIME!" said the angry drunk.

"Okay, if you don't need anything else, I'm going to..."

"NATSU!"

"AYE!"

"BRING ME A WEDDING DRESS!"

"Why?"

"JUST DO IT!"

"AYE SIR!"

And Natsu ran off to find Erza a wedding dress.


For those of you unhappy with the fact that I said Erza once had feelings for Natsu, remember that this is my story and I'll do what I want with it. I just threw that in for the purpose of drama and so they could talk about Lucy's relationship with Natsu. I do, however, believe this could have been true, at least at one point, but that changed when Erza met Jellal again during either the Tower of Heaven or Nirvana arcs. But NatsuxErza will continue to be one of my favorite BrOTPs.

Tell me whose dreams you'd like to see next, and I may just do them! I already have the next and final chapter planned, but as for the rest of them, the order really doesn't matter to me as for whose dream Lucy enters. (and go ahead, try to make a wild guess for whose dreams she'll be visiting in the next and final chapter)

Thanks as always for reading. Tell me what you think of the series so far. Feedback is always appreciated. And I hope you're looking forward to the next chapter.
