CHAPTER 2:
6 Months Later…
Sighing, I touched my gate keys. Will I ever be strong enough? I know I just started a Fairy Tail Academy. But it seems like it has been forever. The classes I have been attending were supposed to aid me into strengthening my magic abilities. Maybe I am being too impatient. Maybe it will work out in the long run. Aside from this problem, nothing has been getting anywhere with Natsu. He seems to not remember me at all! What is going on here? Why am I left in this anguish state? To remember the promises and memories we made to each other? Turning around in my chair, I slowly got up and stretched. It was getting late, I should turn in. I picked up my cell to set my alarm.
*RING!*
I glanced at the caller id. It was my father. What did he want?!
Hesitantly I slowly slid the little green button. "Hello, father."
"Lucy, how are things?" my father inquired me.
His tone was different. Was there something wrong? "Father, everything is going very well here. If you even cared to listen right now, I will tell you I loved it here and that I am glad I was given the opportunity to come here. Although you hate the idea of me being a celestial mage or even hate the thought that the daughter of the Heartfilia possesses magical abilities. I don't care wh…"
"Lucy, I'm so sorry for the way I have treated you throughout your life. All I wanted was to protect you. I went the wrong way about it, but I still love you. Always and forever, you are my daughter and you have the say in whatever you want to do in your life. I had no right to stop it then and no right now. My only regret was that I lost your trust forever, ever since that day..."
"Now you apologize. I don't believe it. You want me to do something again, don't you! You can't stand the thought of me being here! The fact you are saying this now makes me not trust you even more!" I hissed into the phone.
"L-L-Lucy, please..." my father stammered.
"Enough! Father, please don't call me again. I will call you when I feel like talking to you again." I said coldly, I slid the red button across ending our conversation abruptly.
I suddenly felt guilty as soon as I hung up on my father. Oh well, like anything bad will happen to him. Flopping onto my bed I rolled over and stared at the ceiling willing myself to sleep. My last thought was, nothing is ever going to happen, nothing bad anyways.
JUDE HEARTFILIA'S POV
"My dear Lucy, I hope my feelings can reach you in time. I am truly sorry my sweet and wonderful daughter. I failed to see the true treasures of my life. You and your mother are everything to me and always will be. I hope you will find it in your heart one day to forgive me. I have taken everything away from you and now I will give what I can back. Please accept it, I know it's not what you want but it is what I have to my name. No one but a Heartfilia can claim it. I love you my sweet Lucy…" Jude Heartfilia scratched the final words. Setting the pen down, he stared out the window. Seeing how beautiful the stars were that night he smiled in what it seemed like in ages. He folded the contents of the letter in an envelope and sealed it with a magic touch. The letter only to be opened if the heart truly desired to see what was inside. He turned around and surveyed his vast empire. Soon to be given to his young daughter to do whatever she pleased with it.
"Lucy…Layla." He said out loud. Smiling he laid in bed and stared out into the galaxy of stars. He uttered these words, "Layla, I will see you soon, my love…" he closed his eyes for the final time.
Out from the darkness stepped out a hooded figure, an evil grin slide onto his face, he let a low chuckle.
"Your daughter will soon be ours, Heartfilia-san. Nothing can stop Master Hades from obtaining the greatest power the world has ever seen. Hahahaha!" he evilly laughed. He turned suddenly and disappears into the night but not before dropping a small gold pin that would identify exactly who he was.
NORMAL POV
Glancing out the window, I saw Natsu running amok again. Smiling to myself, I rushed out the door to greet him with my Lucy kick.
"OW! LUCY!" Natsu said scowling at me.
I gave him a knowing look. He looked at me a grinned sheepishly.
"Ha, I'm sorry. I was just trying to be loud enough to wake you up! MWAH HAHAHAHA!" he yelled out loud.
I reared myself up preparing myself to kick him again.
"OI! Lu-chan!" a voice called out to me suddenly.
My leg dropped and Natsu's face dropped in relief. I turned to look at the owner of the voice. Smiling I lifted my hand and waved enthusiastically at my best friend Levy.
"What is it Levy?" I said.
She came to a screeching halt in front of me. Gasping for breath, she started to jump up and down excitedly.
"G-G-Gajeel h-he asked m-me out on a date!" she stuttered out finally.
I looked at her blankly for a split second, "AAAAHHHH!" I screeched out happily. "Oh my god! Oh my god! FINALLY!" I yelled out happily. Levy nodded happily. I was sooo glad for my best friend. She had been crushing on Gajeel since like forever.
"Enough about me, so how are things on your end? Does he not remember you still?" Levy inquired while studying Natsu.
Sighing, "No, I still don't know what is going here." Levy knew everything already. It felt good when I told Levy how I knew Natsu.
"Maybe there is a spell that prevents a person from remembering certain things. I think you should ask master about it."
"Eh!? Wait, that might be a good idea! Come on Levy!"
We ran off leaving Natsu with a puzzled look on his face. Shrugging he went about raising havoc like he always does.
MASTER'S OFFICE
"Master, we…I mean I would like to ask you a question about a possibility of a spell's existence."
"Go on I am listening." Master replied.
"Is there a spell that can make one person forget certain memories?"
"Actually, there is an ancient spell that makes one forget. But the spell has been blacklisted since the time of the dragons. The consequence once removed from one's mind is nothing to be worried about. The spell affects anyone. It all depends on who the spell was intended for."
"But what are the consequences that it can have."
"It just leaves the person in a state of shock whether they can or cannot pull out from it. It depends on the person's mental stability, whether the said person wants to accept the facts given to him or not. It is nothing too serious. Just it would cause a devastating blow to the person who wanted the spell to be lifted. The outcome they imagined may not go the way they planned it."
"Is there a way to reverse this spell?" Levy asked.
"Fortunately, we happen to have just the thing to reverse this spell." Master pulled out a small bottle filled with golden liquid.
"This is the tears of the first Fairy Tail Academy Master, Mavis. It was said to be rumored that this small vial can reverse any spell casted on the ones who bore the Fairy Tail mark. Also, is it safe to assume that this potion is intended for Natsu?"
I looked at him stunned. "Um…yes, it is." I mumbled.
Gramps looked at me with sad eyes, he sighed, "Be careful Lucy. Do not expect him to accept you right away. Maybe there was a reason his memories were blocked. Or there is something much bigger on our hands."
Sighing I nodded to Levy signaling for us to go. I turned back to Gramps and slowly lifted my hand to give back the tiny vial.
He shook his head, "Keep it. You might change your mind."
I gave a wry smile, "I don't think I will. I don't want to put a burden like that on Natsu. But thanks anyways Gramps." I said warmly.
As we walked out of Gramps' office, I began to worry about whether I should give it to Natsu at all. Oh let me be selfish for once. I thought to myself. I came up with my resolve. I will not give it to Natsu and I will wait for him to remember me. No matter how long it takes and no matter what happens in the future I will always wait for him. All I can ask for is that let me stay with him, let me be his friend because I don't want to lose him ever again.
2 DAYS LATER…
"OI! Luce!" Natsu yelled from a distance.
I looked up startled that he used the childhood nickname he gave me. I smiled and waved back.
"Aren't you excited for summer vacation!?" he exclaimed loudly.
I grinned and I smacked him on the forehead, "You are being too loud again, Natsu. But yes I am! We all are going to the Caribbean Islands. Levy, Gajeel, Mira, Happy, Wendy, Carla, Erza, Gray, Juvia, Lisanna, you, and I, are all going! It's so exciting. I am just sad Elfman couldn't come."
"Yeah me too." Natsu exclaimed.
"Well Mira said that he had a part time job lined up that pays well. So I he saved up we can go somewhere during winter vacation!"
Natsu nodded in agreement. Suddenly his face fell into a sly wicked grin. He pounced on me so fast and started to tickle the daylights out of me. Screaming in protest and trying to kick him off, I breathlessly laughed until you couldn't hear me anymore. It always amused Natsu every time I laughed like this. He thought it was totally weird but loved seeing me laugh like it. He told me once that I seem like I let all my worries of the world go. So like the best friend that he is, he always resorts to this just to see me smile a little bit brighter.
He finally stopped and said, "You look so much better when you laugh like that. It seems more genuine. Not like it's not genuine every time you laugh."
I shrugged and shoved him a bit, "Whatever." I muttered with a shy smile on my face.
This past six months has been great for me. Although Natsu does not know who I am, he still remains true to himself. What I mean by that, he is still the same like he was when he was a kid. The only downside to this blissful six months is the way he looks at Lisanna. Like she is the only one in his world, I know I have no claim over him…I am just a forgotten memory. But to look on the bright side I am just glad to have his friendship, more than he will ever know.
