Both Lucy and Lauren were walking down a fairly lit street. It was quiet and for a moment all you could hear was the pitter patter of their feet.

"Why did you want to come and meet Makarov? Like why now if you don't mind me asking," Lucy asked. Lauren looked down towards the ground and let out a heavy sigh as she looked towards Lucy meeting her eyes.

"Well, remember when I said that I didn't have any magic?" Lauren said as Lucy nodded.

"Well, my grandmother always talked about him when I was growing up and how he was one of the most popular mages in Magnolia. She would tell me stories about his crazy and wild adventures and how she knew him personally but I was only a kid at the time and didn't understand what she meant.

"About five months ago she passed away suddenly from an unknown illness. It was a hard time for me because she was the only person in my life, but while I was in her room I accidentally tripped over something by her bed. I was about to pull myself up from the floor but I stopped when I saw a lone box underneath her bed. I never knew she had something there so of course I was curious and decided to open it up.

"When I opened it I saw a bunch of old photos of my grandmother when she was younger and young male next to her with their hands intertwined. I didn't know who the man was but he seemed familiar to me. I kept going through more things and underneath all of her old memories was an old piece of fabric with a strange looking symbol printed on it and I letter. It had my name written on it and in the letter, it explained who my grandfather was and that I should find him if anything had happened to her.

"I was in shock but I followed what she said and looked up what the symbol meant in a book and found the name 'Fairy Tail'. So, I packed a bag and began my search for my grandfather, but on my way, something occurred to me. Makarov has magical power's so why didn't I? So, I'm also here to maybe ask why I don't have magic like him." Lauren said as Lucy took in everything she said.

"Wait, your grandmother raised you?" Lucy asked.

"Yeah," Lauren said as she nodded her head.

"What happened to your parents then?" Lucy asked.

"Well, I'm not sure. I don't know anything about them or have any memories of them. I've been with my grandmother for as long as I can remember." Lauren said as she shrugged her shoulders. Lucy looked at her sadly and sighed.

"I'm sorry Lauren," Lucy said.

Lauren nodded her head and both of them kept walking until they reached a brick building.

"This is it," Lucy said as she walked up towards the building.

Lauren and Lucy both walked into the building and up the wooden stairs to Lucy's apartment. Lucy opened the door to her apartment and let Lauren in first and Lucy followed behind and locked the door behind her.

Lauren looked around the apartment and noticed that Lucy seemed to like the color Pink a lot. It was a small one bedroom apartment and as soon as you walked through the door you were greeted by a nice open living room which held a comfortable looking couch.

Lauren followed Lucy into the kitchen to the right of the entrance. It was small but It seemed to have enough room for her and a few other people. Lauren sat down on one of the bar stools that surrounded the island of the kitchen as silence filled the air between them.

"So you'll have to take the couch for now until you figure out your living situation while staying here." She said as she smiled.

Lauren nodded up her head and said her thanks. Lauren looked over towards the pink couch that had white and gold throw pillows that she would call her bed for now.

Lauren got off from the stool she was sitting on and walked over to her tan bag and grabbed her pajama's which was a plain white t-shirt and pink checkerboard sweatpants. Lauren asked Lucy where the bathroom was located and Lucy showed her where it was. Lauren walked into the bathroom and closed the door behind her.

Lauren was standing in the shower as her mind went wild in thought. What happens if he doesn't accept her as his granddaughter? What if he is disappointed that she doesn't have any magic.

She shook her head to get rid of those negative thoughts and turned off the shower. She stepped out and wrapped a towel around herself and walked towards the mirror. She stood there looking into the mirror and at herself. She finally stared into her own light blue eyes and sighed as she reached up towards her right eye and removed something from it.

She blinked a few times as she looked down but then looked back up towards the mirror and her right eye was no longer the beautiful light blue that it once was, but now a lifeless and unmoving silver eye was there. Lauren could only sigh as she looked at the mystery that was her silver eye. She never knew why her right eye was that color since her left eye was blue, and her grandmother never told her why.

Lauren grabbed a new blue contact for her eye and put it into place. She then started to brush her hair and while she did a pink strip of hair showed and she stopped brushing her hair as she stared at it for a moment before continuing to brush her hair again. Another mystery about her that she didn't know the answer too.

Lauren put her pajamas on and stretched her back. Lauren had more of a curvy body but not like Lucy's. She was tall and many people would mistake her age because of it. Lauren took one last look at herself in the mirror and saw the small reminder of her grandmother which was a small diamond earring that she gave her when she was much younger.

Lauren opened up the bathroom door to find Lucy working at her desk. Lauren slowly walked out and sat down on the couch.

"Whatcha writing?" Lauren asked her.

Lucy froze and put her hand over the pieces of paper and looked over towards Lauren with an awkward smile on her face.

"U-Uh n-nothing! Haha.." Lucy said awkwardly as she started to put the pieces of paper in her drawers and locked it.

Lauren raised her brow but decided not to press any further.

"Okay," Lauren said as Lucy stood up from the small desk.

Lucy made her way over to a closet that was hidden away and began searching for something. When Lucy finally found what she was looking for she turned around holding a white pillow and blanket with golden stars. She walked over to Lauren and gave it to her for her bedding.

After taking the pillow and blanket Lucy told Lauren that she was going to get ready for bed. Lauren thanked her and started making her temporary bed on the couch. When she finished she sat down on the couch and relaxed for a good minute or two before her stomach woke her up from her thoughts. Lauren sighed and but got up and made her way to the refrigerator and opened it. Lauren stared wide-eyed at the contents in the fridge.

Lauren never took Lucy for someone who likes spicy foods and her fridge seems to be full of spicy everything. She could even make out three bottles of hot sauce that seemed to be all open. Lauren really thought Lucy would be someone who would have more of a sweet tooth but she guessed she was wrong. Lauren saw other bits and pieces of other things but they were green and looked like plants which didn't appeal to her.

Lauren eventually sighed when she didn't see anything edible in the fridge and made her way up to the freezer.

Maybe she had one of those frozen dinners? Lauren thought.

Lauren opened up the freezer door and immediately regretted it. Her face turned green as she covered her mouth and nose from the smell of dead fish. She quickly closed the door in a huff and leaned her head against the door as she took in a deep breath of clean air. She wasn't prepared for that horrible smell, let alone dead fish bodies staring at her lifeless. She felt chills go down her back as she started walking to the cabinets of the kitchen.

As Lauren kept looking through cabinet after cabinet she finally noticed something in the back of a few boxes. When she pushed those aside she was finally faced to face with something that was more amazing than words could describe. As if a light was glowing off from it she slowly and carefully took it out from the cabinet and looked at it with a longing look followed by droll making its way down her chin. She carefully undid the lid to the container and a sour smell filled her nose as she slowly took out one of the rugged treats out of the jar and into her mouth with an audible crunch. She was in Heaven.

After a couple of minutes, Lucy opened up the door to the bathroom and came out with a pair of pink pajamas over her body. She was drying her blonde hair with a towel but when she looked over to her kitchen her eyes she caught sight of Lauren. Lucy widened her eyes as her mouth dropped open. Lauren couldn't blame her though because she was on the kitchen counter sitting cross-legged as she held the jar between her legs as she was devouring pickle after pickle. They're her weakness.

"L-Lauren! What are you doing?!" Lucy yelled confused.

Lauren didn't seem to hear her though as she was drifting off to a sour wonderland where everything was made out of pickles and the rivers and ocean where the juice.

Lucy quickly made her way over to Lauren and swiped the jar from between her lap. Lauren froze and slowly turned her head to face Lucy, still having a pickle sticking out of her mouth. Lucy looked at Lauren as she tried to muffle her laughs.

Lauren quickly got off the counter and stalked her way closer to Lucy angerly. Lucy seemed to get the clue that Lauren wasn't so happy with how she took away her snack so she began to back away slowly. Lauren quickly lunged for the jar but before she could take her precocious snack away from Lucy something grabbed Lauren's waist from behind and held her back. Lauren was beyond ticked off and she wanted to mouth off the person that thought it would be a good idea to stop her from getting her pickles back.

Lauren fumed as she spun her head around to see who was holding her back. She raised her brown she saw a male with orange hair that was long but spiked in different directions and he was wearing a black and white suit with a dark red tie and clear glasses.

Now Lauren put the pieces together. First, there is an unknown male in Lucy's apartment. Second, he is holding me by my waist which is not something you should do to a girl unless you have been given permission or have a good relationship with them and I don't know this guy. Third, Lucy seems to be relieved and almost happy to see this person. Now, that you have all the pieces it's time to put this together, Lauren thought.

"TRAP! IT'S-A TRAP!" Lauren yelled.

Lauren tried squirming around in the man's grip as she tried to break free.

I knew this was too good to be true that Lucy was this nice! SHE EVEN BRIBED ME WITH PICKLES! MY ONLY WEAKNESS! Lauren thought.

Lauren tried to calm her breath and stopped squirming in the male's grip. She knew she wasn't going to get anywhere by doing that. She thought back to her training and smirked when she knew what to do.

Lauren saw that his arms were still wrapped around her waist and he was pressed up against her back. Lauren stomped on his foot with all her might and he automatically let out a hiss of pain as he let go of her waist to tend to his foot. Lauren smirked when she saw that he left himself wide open. She turned around to face her opponent and ran up to his side and kneed him the gut while he was holding onto his toes. He groaned in pain as he toppled over and fell on his stomach muttering curse words. Lauren knew he was down for the count but she wasn't done yet. She whipped her head over to face Lucy who had a dumbstruck look on her face.

"Who is he and why did you set up this trap?" Lauren questioned her angrily.

"Trap? What are you talking about Lauren?!" She said bewildered as she ran over to the man and kneeled down beside him making sure he was okay.

He gave her brief nod and Lucy got up and looked at Lauren fiercely. Lauren noted that Lucy seemed really angry with her but she should be the one angry with her. Lucy was trying to possibly kidnap her. Lucy seemed to steady her breathing as Lauren kept her fighting position.

"I am sorry Lauren if Loke had scared you but you cant just go and attacking people!" Lucy said with a huge sigh.

"What are you talking about? He obviously was trying to kidnap me! It was apart of your plan right?" Lauren spat at her.

"Kidnap you? Plan? Lauren, Loke is a spirit. He is one of the Twelve Zodiacs. I'm sorry if he scared you but he sensed my distress and came to help me. If you didn't know I am a Celestial Mage and I can summon spirits." Lauren froze as she took in the new piece of information.

When Lauren finally understood what she was talking about she widened her eyes as guilt washed over her. Lauren couldn't believe she thought Lucy and her spirit Loke were going to do something bad to her when she had been so nice to let her stay at her place.

"I am so, so sorry Lucy! I didn't know! I thought he was going to kidnap me! I am so sorry!" Lauren bowed her head to Lucy as she apologized over and over again.

Lucy only giggled at her as Lauren slowly raised her head and raised her eyebrow. Lauren didn't understand why Lucy was laughing at her while she was trying to give her a heartfelt apology.

"I'm sorry for laughing but you don't need to bow to me. I forgive you but just be careful next time. I understand the feeling of not fulling trusting someone but I hope you can fully trust me soon." Lucy smiled and Lauren felt even worse, but she was brought out of her thoughts by another moan from Loke who was lying on the floor still clutching his stomach.

Lauren quickly walked over to him and gave him a sheepish smile as she rubbed the back of her neck and stuck out her other hand for him to grab.

"I'm sorry that I kind of I beat you up and thought you were a pervy kidnapper." She said apologetically.

Loke quickly stopped moaning and quickly stood before Lauren and took her hand that was extended out. He bent over and kissed the back of it. Lauren widened her eyes as Lucy sweatdropped next to me.

"It Is quiet alright lovely maiden. You are absolutely beautiful. How about we go on a date?" He said flirting with her.

"Okay, I guess I was right about the pervy part," Lauren muttered as she sweatdropped.

Lauren pulled her hand back from his grasp and rubbed off his kiss from the back of her hand on her pajama pants. He gasped in a very overdramatic style and clutched onto his heart. Lucy shook her head as she sighed and forcibly closed his gate as she held onto his golden key.

Lauren and Lucy spent the rest of the night talking with one another and Lucy giving her more details about everyone in the guild and some of the adventures she and her team, which was named Team Natsu went on. Lauren listened attentively to everything she said with a spark of wonder and fascination in her eyes. She never heard of Dragon Slayers, or Demons before and everything she spoke about gave Lauren more questions than answers.

The way Lucy spoke about her adventures reminded Lauren of the stories her grandmother would tell her about her grandfather. As Lauren thought about those memories from her childhood she felt a warm sensation start to spread around her heart. She missed her grandmother deeply.

After a while, Lauren and Lucy decided to call it a night and head to bed.

Lauren climbed into her makeshift bed on the couch and looked up towards the ceiling. She thought about many things but one thing that kept popping into her mind was when would she finally be able to remember what happened to her that day. That's one of the reasons Lauren came looking for Makarov. Hopefully, he will have the answers or at least point her in the right direction. Before Lauren could think about the subject anymore she started to drift off to sleep.

During the night unknowing to both Lauren and Lucy, something made their way out of the darkness. A silver glow that made out the faint shape of a woman appeared. The figure was taller than Lauren and Lucy and she was wearing a long dress. Her hair was down in a braid but she was barely recognizable because of her transparent color.

She walked towards the two girls but stopped when she was in front of Lauren who was in a deep sleep. The woman stayed still looking down at her resting face.

The woman slowly lifted her arm towards Lauren as she laid her hand on Lauren's forehead. Lauren didn't flinch at all as a soft silver glow eloped, her. When the glow died down the woman disappeared along with any sign that she was ever there but after a few seconds Lauren snapped her eyes open but didn't move her body. It was like she was still asleep and not in control of her body. Shortly after a soft silver glow came from Lauren's right eye and once it disappeared her eyes were once again closed and she was sound asleep.

"Soon..."
