Lucy always did like simple things.
She found complications to troublesome to handle.
So you could guess her reaction when she saw Fairy Tail Academy for the first time.
''This is a school'' She shrieked. Luckily, everyone was in class at this time or they would have stopped and given her 'the look'.
It looked like a massive mansion with smaller, but still really big, buildings on the side. There was a fountain in the middle and green fields surrounded it.
She had to admit, the school looked a lot better than it did in the brochure. Someone must have put a lot of effort into building this. Lucy was a scholarship student, so she didn't know how much it cost to go to a school like this.
No matter.
Tugging her suitcase behind her, she entered the building.
Name: Lucy Heartfilla
Age: 17
Year: Junior
Dorm Number: B201
Yes, she was lost.
No, the damned piece of paper did not help.
The people in this school were so unhelpful. She must have asked several students, all of which either nervously shuffled away or glared at her before parting.
Ever heard of manners?
Classes were now over, and the hallway was crowded. Although, the thing that caught Lucy's attention the most, was the fact that everyone always stayed in a certain area of the school. For example, she had passed the cafeteria not to long ago and it was separated into seven sections. The tables further back seemed to be in bad condition, whilst the ones at the front looked decent.
However, there was one table that was separated from all the rest. There were two steps leading to a wide platform, where a rectangular table stood. It was by far the best out of all of them, with stunning glass windows by the side. Lucy made a mental note to snag that table before anyone else got the chance.
Back to the situation.
The blonde had decided to ask one last person where her dorm room was, before crying tears of frustration. She stopped to scan the area. She had two options.
She could either ask a couple that seemed to be making out or a girl who had her head in her locker. Everyone else either glared at her or ignored her altogether. Lucy was glad nobody tried to make a move on her. She was wearing jeans and a white top with her denim jacket. For shoes, it was regular white converses.
Simple.
Lucy always did like simple things.
She made her way to the girl who had her head in her locker ( it would be too awkward to stop the couple from their…'encounter').
What to say…what to say, the blonde thought to herself.
''Can I help you?''
Lucy looked up to find piecing blue eyes staring back at her. ''Um…,'' she felt extremely awkward and shuffled about. The girl seemed to be scanning her, so the Heartfilla decided to do the same.
The girl was wearing black basketball shorts and a tank top. She had a sleeveless navy blue hoodie with a pair of sneakers for shoes. Her snow white hair barely reached her shoulders and her blue eyes were big and round.
Lucy quickly concluded that she was a tomboy.
Through, what caught Lucy's attention the most was the tag that was on the right side of her chest.
Lisanna Strauss
Level: 6
Rank: 374
''Are you, by any chance, new?''
Lucy looked up. 'Lisanna' seemed to be more relaxed than she was a couple minutes prior.
''Um…yeah. Do you know where Room B201 is?''
Instantly, her eyes lit up. ''You must be Levy's roommate!'' she said cheerfully. ''I'm sorry for being rude early. I'm Lisanna Strauss.''
''Lucy, Lucy Heartfilla.''
Lisanna nodded gleefully. ''Well let me take you to your room!'' Before Lucy got the chance to answer she was being dragged across the school.
She seems nice, the blonde thought to herself. She didn't know who this 'Levy' was, so she could only hope she was as kind as her friend.
Lucy took in her surroundings whilst being led to her room. The lockers were red. When she first walked in the school, they looked good as new. However, once she walked deeper in, the conditions of the lockers seemed to change from looking amazing…to looking like yesterday's dinner.
Another thing she noticed was how everyone had tags on their chest. It contained some sort of Level and Rank thing.
Last time she checked this was a school, not some sort of military camp.
''We're here!''
Lucy, for the umpteenth time that day, was interrupted from her thoughts. She was currently in what seemed to be the girls dormitory for juniors. The walls were white and there were about several other doors in the hallway. She assumed they led to other dorm rooms. The doors were painted a red colour. The door she and Lisanna were standing in front of read 'Dorm Room B201'.
Taking one last look at Lisanna, she hesitantly opened the door.
Surprisingly, Lucy wasn't shocked at all.
The dorm room was big, she could tell that much. The blonde was facing what she assumed was the living room. It looks homey to say the least. There was a couch in the middle and a fire place on the right side of the room. On the floor lay a circular red carpet, taking up most of the room. All in all, it looked like a family's main room on Christmas Eve, minus the presents and trees and what not.
There was a door on the left side of the room, she assumed it led to the kitchen. Another thing that caught her eye was the flight of stairs between the fire place and the couch. She still had yet to figure out where that led to. She faced Lisanna once again.
''I like it. It reminds me of home,'' and it did.
The white haired beauty laughed before looking Lucy in the eye. ''I know! Levy has plenty of free time on her hands, so she decorated this to the best of her ability.''
Lucy nodded before looking at the room again. ''Where is my roommate?''
''Right here!'' She turned to the source of the voice. She saw a girl…obviously. No, it was not the fact that she was a girl that surprised the Heartfilla. It was more about her appearance.
'Levy' had bright blue hair and a petite form. She wore a knee length skirt and a white blouse to match. She had ankle socks on and wore plain shoes to match. On her face were red glasses, which were neatly placed on the bridge of her nose.
''Are you my roommate?'' Lisanna immedietly laughed at her words. ''Of course she is Lucy! Why else would she be here?''
Oh right, the blonde thought dumbly to herself.
Lucy always did like simply things.
The situation she was in now was most definitely not simple.
However, for the first time in ages, she didn't mind.
''So here is the gym,'' Levy said. ''Oh and there's the aquarium!''
The blonde was currently being shown around the school by her new friends, Lisanna and Levy.
Lisanna and Levy. They seemed to have been friends for a while. From what she had seen so far, they were always together. It was never just Lisanna or just Levy. It was Lisanna and Levy. At first, she felt like a burden. But after they had cheered her up, those feelings disappeared.
At first she thought everyone glared at her because she was new and alone, she figured once she had found friends people would stop giving her a hard time. However, instead of the glares stopping, they seemed to have multiplied. Nobody ignored her now and it annoyed her slightly.
''So what do you think of it all?'' Levy said ecstatically. Lucy was about to reply when the hallways were suddenly silent. Everyone stopped what they were doing, everyone including her new friends.
Silently, they all turned to a lone figure standing at the end of the hallway. She appeared to have just come out of the classroom. Whilst Lucy was trying to figure out what was going on, the figure came closer and closer.
Soon enough she was walking right past her.
Once she left everyone either turned away in disgust or simply glared into the air.
Ah, yes. Lucy always did like simply things, which is way she never expected that girl…
That blue haired girl.
That girl, who was dripping wet.
That girl, who wore clothes far too big for her.
That girl, whose eyes looked dead.
Whose skin was pale.
That poor, poor girl.
…to be known as the sister she always wanted, but never had.
