Lucy took a deep breath and continued on the path that will soon lead her to find happiness.

Chapter 2:Bumps

Lucy strolled pass a variety of stores and restaurants. Her body was moving, but her mind was somewhere else. That was until she bumped into someone. She and her victim fell onto their bottoms. Lucy got back onto her feet and rubbed her sore bottom. "Ouch! Geez blondie watch where you are before you space out" the man she bumped into lashed out. Lucy helped him up and bowed, "I'm so sorry… wait I know you!" The man looked at the celestial's face and responded "Oh! Well if it isn't Natsu-san's girl. I thought I knew your smell."
Lucy's eyes shifted to sadness, but her mask made it seem like she was annoyed, "Whatever Sting. I'm no one's girl and I don't have time for this. My bad for bumping into you. Trust me it won't happen again." She brushed passed him and carried on her way. The light dragon slayer turned his head and smirked at her, "We'll see about that."

The blonde celestial mage walked on the cobble stoned path holding a necklace to her chest. That necklace was specially made. It was a heart with an N inside. She clutched it tightly and finally sat on an empty bench. She sat down, put her head down, and let out the breath and tears she held back.

"Yo Blondie! If you keep sitting there someone will come and take advantage of you" a voice told her. Lucy quickly wiped her face while scolding herself for looking weak, "Go away Sting. How do I know you won't be one of them." Sting chuckled and sat next to her, answering "Well you seen right through me, Blondie." Lucy glared at his smirking face with crossed arms. He poked her forehead loosening her face up, "Keep making that face and you'll get wrinkles."

The action made Lucy rub the spot and complain how it hurt. The cocky dragon slayer laughed at her and said, "You must be sensitive and weak. Then again you are a fairy." His words left his smirking lips. "Tssk says the saber that lost to us fairies" this time it was Lucy's turn to smirk. Sting chuckled and leaned back, "For now. Don't get too cocky Ms. Blondie." Lucy laughed a real laugh with all thoughts of Natsu evaporating from her mind at the moment. "Lucy, you Stingy-bee. My name is Lucy. Plus you're blonde too" she stated. I got you now Sting thought. "Hmm I like Blondie better." Lucy just turned with a smile on her face.
"Sttiiing!" a small voice called out. The two blondes turned their heads and seen a black exceed coming. "Sting! I was looking for you all over the place! Why would you leave me? And who is this?" the exceed interrogated. Sting stood up and grabbed his best friend, "Hey Lector! Sorry little man I guess I just got ahead of myself." Lector listened to Sting and nodded, but then he got a better look at Lucy. "Hey! You're a fairy! What are you doing to the Great Sting Eucliffe?" Lucy got up out of her spot and said before she left, "Don't worry we probably won't meet again. Anyways I have to go back to my guild. Bye."

The two Sabertooth mages watched the blonde girl's back getting smaller and smaller. "Hey Lector how would you feel to be a fairy with me. Just till I beat Natsu-san." Lector looked at Sting's face that showed his signature smirk and he mirrored it, "Well I'm guessing you have a great plan, so I guess I will learn to manage." Look out Natsu-san I will beat you this time.
