-Welcome to Fairy Tail Academy-
A blonde sixteen-year-old girl stands in front of the Fairy Tail Academy's silver gate. Lucy Heartfillia gazes up and down at the rusty silver old gate of her new school. She silently wonders what the heck she is doing in an old school like this. Where is the familiar golden gate she used to enter before? Where is the little guard house next to the school gate? Where is the kind security guard who greeted every student entering the private and prestigious school she used to attend? Lucy sighs and feels like she doesn't belong in this school. Lucy already misses her old school. She misses the elegant and pretty high school girls who greeted each other with a soft smile. She misses the handsome and cool high school boys who chatted with their friends about their favorite sports.
Lucy sighs for the umpteenth time and wonders why she ended up transferring to an ordinary school like this. Oh yeah, the bankrupt issue,she whispers looking sorry for herself. Aside from Heartfillia Railways, her family owned different companies, that all vanished into thin air when her family suffered a huge bankrupt. Because their family is now low in cash, Lucy has to transfer into an ordinary school such as Fairy Tail Academy. The loss of their fortunes is a huge blow to her family, especially to her father. Lucy rolls her eyes imagining her father drowning himself with alcohol after the incident. She doesn't have a good relationship with her father because since the death of her mother, Layla Heartfillia, her father Wilson Heartfillia neglected her and focused only to expand his business.
With the sudden turn of Lucy's once glamorous life, the blonde girl had to adjust her life starting today. She even decided to look for a part time job for her daily expenses that her father is seemingly too busy sobering the huge loss to pay. Lucy swallows down the nervousness before stepping inside the school gate. I can do this,she encourages herself while walking her way towards the school building.

Lucy stands in front of the petite school principal, named Makarov. Beside the principal is Lucy's new homeroom teacher Gildarts Clive, the rough-looking but easy-going Physical Education teacher of Fairy Tail Academy. Principal Makarov scans Lucy's document with her necessary information.
"Miss Heartfillia, I heard the news about your family and I feel sorry about what happened." Makarov says after placing down the papers on his desk.
Lucy shrugs her shoulder casually. "I don't really care." she says with softness and unconcern voice, her chocolate eyes are focused on the paper on the desk. Makarov and Gildarts exchange worried glances.
"Well there's nothing really to say now, so Miss Lucy Heartfillia, welcome to the Fairy Tail Academy. I hope you enjoy your stay here with us." Makarov says with a smile on his face and extending a hand to Lucy. The blonde girl nods and accepts the principal's hand, shaking it gently. "Gildarts-sensei here will be your homeroom teacher from now." Makarov nods at Gildarts. "Sensei, I'll leave Heartfillia-san to—"
A clash of the fallen door accompanied with groans of pain cuts Principal Makarov's words off. Looking startled, Lucy and the two older men turn their eyes toward the door and the three students on the floor. Lucy blinks as she looks at the boys groan. There is a boy with rosy pink hair lying down on the floor face-first; on top of him are another two boy students, one with black hair and the other with dark orange hair.
"What the heck— get off me, Gray, Loke!" the pink-headed boy said angrily. The boy with jet-black hair slams the pink-headed boy's face back to the floor, causing for the poor pink headed boy to groan again.
"Shut up! It's your damn fault this thing happened!" he retorts and slowly stands up. The third boy with dark orange hair is already on his feet, brushing off the dust from his uniform. Makarov and Gildarts both have angry chips on their foreheads while they watch the three students argue. Lucy on the other hand gazes at them with incuriosity in her chocolate brown eyes.
"Gray, Natsu, Loke…" Gildarts said slowly then animatedly glares dangerously at the three students. The said boys wince and quiver in unison with fear in their eyes while turning their head to the glaring PE teacher.
"Geh! Oyaji!" the three boys mumble in unison causing the angry chip on the teacher's head pound faster.
"The hell! Stop calling me Oyaji! Didn't I tell you to stay inside the room while I pick up the transfer student?" Gildarts angrily exclaims while the three boys twitch at every word of the PE teacher. Makarov shakes his head while he watches the teacher and the students. "Ahh! Come back here!" Gildarts screams as the students with black hair and dark orange hair runs away from the principal's office.
"You go and become the bait, squinty eyes!" the black-haired student says, pushing the rosy pink-headed student toward Gildarts. After that he hastily runs away with the dark orange-haired boy tagging along, leaving the pink-headed boy in the clutches of their angry teacher.
"Hey come back here! Gray! Loke! Argh— you traitors!" the pink-headed boy wails while wagging his arms and feet in Gildarts' grip. Gildarts hits the boy's head, causing the boy to wince in pain, and in a matter of seconds, a red bump appears on his head.
"You three cause so much trouble every single day! Honestly!" Gildarts scolds the pink-headed student while the latter sits down on the floor cross-legged with a pout on his face. "You startled the new student! Go and apologize!" the PE teacher says, pointing a finger at Lucy. The salmon-head boy turns his head to Lucy and stares at her. Lucy feels a little awkward and tried to act unaffected under the staring eyes of the boy, but still unable to hide it, a pink tinge appears on her cheeks. The blonde girl blinks her eyes when the boy gives her a wide grin.
"Hey! My name's Natsu Dragoneel! What's yours?" the boy who calls himself 'Natsu' says without erasing the wide and goofy grin from his handsome face.
Lucy hesitated at first. "Uhh... Lucy Heartfillia." she slowly answers.
"Okay! Nice to meet you Luigi!" Natsu greeted, Makarov animatedly falls down from his swivel chair while Lucy and Gildarts sweat drop in unison.
Luigi? Is this guy deaf or something?"Excuse me but my name is not Luigi, its Lucy." Lucy says looking annoyed and sighs to calm herself down.
"Ahh my bad! Sorry!" Natsu chuckles childishly while scratching the back of his head. "So what class are you in?"
Lucy glances on the course sheet on her hand. "1-B." she says.
Natsu's grin grew wider; he gave Lucy thumbs up and a wink. "Wow, we're in the same class! Let's be friends okay Luigi?"
Lucy sweat drops again and sighs in frustration. How do you expect me to be friends with someone who can't even remember my name? Lucy asks herself looking annoyed. Gildarts smacks Natsu's head again looking apologetic at Lucy.
"Sorry, he's a bit stupid," Gildarts says, embarrassed, while Natsu exclaims an indignant 'Oi!' at his teacher.
Lucy just shakes her head at her home-room teacher. Gildarts pushes Natsu out of the room. "Go back to the classroom, Natsu, and stay there. We'll just have to pick up Miss Heartfillia's books." Natsu mumbles 'che~' before walking back to the class room.
"See you at the class room, Lucy!" Natsu says while waving his hand at the blonde girl. Lucy raises an eyebrow noticing that Natsu called her by her real name. She immediately shakes her head after she felt her face heat up.

"Quiet down guys." Gildarts says and in an instant the students stop chatting. "Now I know you already heard about the new student." The murmurs begin, and Gildarts has to clap his hands together to get his students' attention again. "Now calm down, people." he says before turning his back and facing the black board. Gildarts writes Lucy's full name on the board.
"You may enter now, Miss Heartfillia." Gildarts calls out; the door automatically opens revealing the blonde new student. Whispering starts again as Lucy enters the classroom.
"Heartfillia? Is that the company who went bankrupt last month?"
"Yep! Wow I heard she came from Apostle Academy, that prestigious school."
"I kinda feel sorry for her."
Lucy tries to ignore the students whispering about the misfortune of her family and stares down at the floor of the classroom with blank expression.
"Why don't you introduce yourself to us?" Gildarts asks, trying to change the tense atmosphere. "Tell us anything. Your likes and dislikes, what kind of hobbies you do and—"
"Do you have a boyfriend?" Lucy flashes her brown eyes at the boy with dark orange hair she saw in the Principal's office along with Natsu and the black-haired boy.
"I was about to asks what is her 'ambition' but feel free to tell us if you're dating someone or not." Gildarts gives Lucy an encouraging smile, which is actually futile since Lucy merely shrugs her shoulders.
"My name is Lucy Heartfillia. There are lots of things I dislike and very few things that I like. I don't really have any hobbies and I don't have a boyfriend. That's all." Lucy says in her bored expression earning a sweat drop from her classmates and homeroom teacher.
So in the end, we only know her name and her 'single' status, they all think in unison. "O-oh well, classes are about to start." Gildarts says giving a weak smile to Lucy. "Well, Miss Heartfillia please take the empty chair in the back, just behind Natsu."
Lucy nods and walks towards her designated table. All of the students' eyes are focused on Lucy until she suddenly stops beside Natsu's chair. The pink-headed boy outstretches his arm blocking Lucy's way. The blonde girl arches an eyebrow as she gazes down at Natsu, looking baffled at the teenage boy. The rest of the students plus the teacher stare at Natsu and Lucy.
"Yo, Lucy," Natsu greets, pulling his arms out of Lucy's way. The blonde girl blinks her eyes at Natsu then nods as a reply to his greeting. Lucy proceeds to her chair behind Natsu and quietly sits down on the chair.

Lucy smirks at the title they will be performing. Big, fat and all capital letter. Two single words that cause the 1-B class to groan in frustration.
