This would be probably my third fic published in here, so please support this also! I already posted the prologue for this story, but that is pure introduction and no scenes yet so here is the main story for all of you!

Summary:

Loke was a part of an organization and his latest mission, to kill Lucy Heartfilia. He pretended to be a transfer student in Lucy's school, well, of course, to be close to his prey. Will he fulfill his mission or abandon it because he can't do harm to her?

A Dangerous Mission

1st stop: The Transfer Student

BEE— BEEP! BEE— BEEP! BEE—

A blonde with chocolate brown eyes sat on her bed, half asleep as she stared at the digital alarm clock at her bed side. Six-thirty, it read. She reached for the rectangular button on top of it and yawned. It was yet another day for school.

Somehow her body still refused to get up this early, considering the students came from different places during the winter break. Well, everyone except for Lucy...

Lucy stood up and stretched as she started walking towards the kitchen to get frozen food from the refrigerator. She placed it on a microwave oven and set the timer on, before snatching her towel from her dresser chair and started taking a bath.

She wore a light blue skirt and a white blouse with long sleeves and a ribbon around her neck that matched the color of her skirt. She tied her hair at one side with a blue ribbon that matched her uniform. Lucy looked at her uniform in the mirror and slowly spun around to check her appearance. Plain, but that was her.

After taking breakfast, she took her bag before making sure all windows were locked and there were no plugs plugged in. She went out of the house, locked the door shut and started walking towards Fairy Tail University.

A grinning face looked at Lucy as she shut her locker door.

"Lucy! I can't believe you said no to the skiing trip! You wouldn't believe what happened!" Juvia Lockser, a fellow classmate and friend squealed at Lucy.

"I would, Juv. There are very few things in this world I don't believe," Lucy said, clutching her books to her chest and walked away.

Juvia shrugged her olive-green bag unto her shoulder, keeping up with Lucy's pace. "Yeah, like fun?" Juvia snorted sarcastically.

Lucy rolled her brown eyes at her best friend. "It's not like I don't believe in fun! I just needed to get started on my extracurricular activities with the Math Club, that's all," she explained.

"Yeah, Yeah. Whatever you say, Lulu," Juvia murmured.

Lucy just glared half-heartedly at the aqua-haired girl beside her, regarding the childish nickname she gave to her, and continued to walk towards their homeroom.

It was about thirty minutes after when their homeroom teacher, Laxus-sensei arrived at the classroom. During the whole time of wait, Juvia kept blabbing about how she and Gray Fullbuster almost kissed during the three days on the mountains. Inside, Lucy wished for her to stop, but instead, she drew circles on a piece of paper the whole time to control herself and nodded every five seconds to make it look like she was listening.

And at last, their homeroom teacher arrived.

"Life saver," she said to herself.

"Okay class," Laxus-sensei started, placing his class record on his desk.

"Sure looks like every one of you had a fun vacation."

Almost like a cue, the class was noisy again as the topic was brought up. The class was brought to silence again when they noticed the teacher was writing something on the board in big, bold letters.

Loke Cross, it read.

When Laxus-sensei spun around, there were murmurs from all around the place again.

"Well," he began. "From the looks of it, it seems you already know what's going on," Laxus Dreyar smiled at his students. "To all of you, a transfer student will be joining us from this point onwards."

Laxus-sensei gestured towards the door, "Mister Cross?" he called.

Everyone looked at the door, waiting for someone to step in and moments after, a tall, pale boy with orange lion-like hair stepped in, smiling crookedly.

"It's nice to meet you," he greeted. "I am Loke Cross," he said before bowing.

The girls from the class gasped in unison, and Lucy isn't an exception. She had never seen anyone with eyes as green as his—they were angelic! Even behind those blue-tinted glasses, she could clearly see his emerald-green eyes. And not to mention that he was so hot.

Suddenly, Lucy felt her cheeks grew hot. It must have been her imagination, but Lucy could have sworn this strangely handsome guy glanced at her direction. The blonde shook it off aside quickly.

'That would be impossible!'she thought... or so she did.

"Mr. Cross, you can sit on that vacant seat beside Mr. Fullbuster—" Laxus-sensei said, pointing at the desk.

"Actually," Loke Cross answered, smiling sarcastically. "I'd rather sit next to that beautiful lady over there."

Loke looked at one direction, still smiling. It was when everybody turned to look at her did Lucy realized Loke meant her.

Juvia's eyes glittered, cognizant to what was happening around her.

"Juvia would volunteer to sit next to Gray-sama, Laxus-sensei," Juvia said, raising her hand.

Lucy's eyes widened at her best friend. "Juvia! What—"

"Sorry, Lucy. Juvia just can't pass this opportunity up! Who knows she will get that kiss she wanted," Juvia whispered as she hastily picked up her things and headed towards the vacant seat next to Gray Fullbuster.

Lucy groaned, letting her blonde hair fall to her face, hiding herself from embarrassment. The new transfer student, Loke Cross, just destroyed her day.

So much for her first day back from winter break.

Loke slowly went to the chair beside Lucy, smiling at her.

Lucy ignored the guy beside her, instead, she focused her attention at the teacher lecturing in front and tried to take notes. She endured it until she finally heard the class bell rang.

"Whew... saved by the bell!" she thought to herself.

Lucy took a tray and fell in line in the cafeteria. Apparently, now, she was alone. Juvia was now snuggling up with Gray. Turns out, it only took sitting next to him before they finally got together. Now, Juvia was in Gray's table giggling and talking rubbish with her 'boyfie'.

Lucy was about to get the last piece of chocolate pudding when somebody took it before her. She glared at the tall boy next to her who smirked back.

"That was mine!" she said icily.

Loke shrugged, "Saw it first."

Lucy glared harder at him hoping to let go of everything she felt right at that moment.

"It was bad enough that you embarrassed me earlier at homeroom."

Loke smirked wider. "Since when did giving compliments to a beautiful lady become an embarrassment?" he asked.

Lucy didn't reply. She just groaned and turned away. Attempting a decent conversation with anyone today would be suicide...well, to whoever talked to her.

Loke followed keeping up with her pace. "You're awfully short-tempered. Your name is Lucy, right?"

The blonde stopped at her tracks and faced him. "This day just started out bad," – she shot a painful glare at Juvia's direction—"So since you're a new student, I'm gonna let you off the hook today."

Lucy walked towards an empty table, wanting to get some peace of mind when Loke sat across her suddenly, extending one hand towards her. Lucy raised one eyebrow at him.

"Why don't we start over?" Loke suggested, smiling crookedly. "I'm Loke Cross. Pleased to make your acquaintance."

Lucy kept quiet for a while, but then took his hand and shook it.

"Lucy Heartfilia," she replied.

When Loke's grip grew tighter, Lucy suddenly felt her heart race for a second. But she was sure it was not because she was mesmerized of Loke. It was something different. It was as if the contact meant danger, and that she should take everything in caution when he was around.

What was this Lucy feeling towards Loke? Will this affect her friendship with him? And what is Loke's role in Lucy's life? Stay tune forthe 2nd stop: The Danger of chess pieces

Clovergiel's notes:

There you have it, the first chapter for my third fic. Actually, this was originally a story by me and my friend with our own OC. But it was left to me, and I happened to find this story when we were cleaning our house. So I decided to continue this and make it a fanfic using my favorite FT pairing and characters.

So please tell me your reaction, suggestions, comments, constructive criticism or anything you want to say or ask to me, it's all welcome!

Please support this and my other fan fictions [A Fated Meeting & Soul Angel]! Thank you and may God bless all of you!
