Hello again!

I have decided that I will try to upload this every Friday! (To make this easier for me)

However, I will try to go with not too short chapters, but I won't lag on forever 'kay? ^.^

So, thanks for the reviews, favs and follows!

Hope you like this chapter too!


Lucy felt like crying. She, Natsu and Happy were in the middle of a ghost town, no idea where they were. Lucy was about to wail when an elderly lady approached them from the middle of nowhere. She slowly walked up to them, balancing on her engraved walking stick. The lady was slowly making her way and when she finally reached them, she look like she was going to collapse onto the ground.

"Hello there," The elderly lady managed to hiss out. Lucy could feel shivers go down her spine and almost cried out. The lady seemed to struggle to speak.

"I suppose you are the mages from Fairy Tail. The ones who took my request?" Lucy nodded. Natsu just stared at the lady, Happy seeming to be much more scared of her than Lucy, as he was hiding behind Natsu's back. The lady smiled a thin smile.

"Hmm. I guess you'll do. Now, follow me." She started to hobble towards the direction she came from. Lucy followed her, hesitantly, and Natsu and Happy followed behind. They quickly caught up to her but the old lady was walking far too slow for Natsu's liking.

"Hey, hurry up, why don't 'cha? You're taking forev-"

"NATSU." Lucy shouted and glared at him. The lady just smiled.

"I know I'm slow. Why don't I meet you at the mansion? It's just up ahead-"

"THANKS OLD LADY!" Natsu and Happy ran (or flew) off. Lucy was pissed.

"Ha, call me Gretchen." Lucy smiled apologetically to Gretchen.

"I'm sorry, Natsu-"

"It's fine. Now, hurry up after your boyfr-"

"Huh?"

"Oh, nothing." And with that Lucy began to run after them.


Natsu POV

Man, why does it take so long just to go to one freakin' building? Hey where'd Luce go?

I turn around, to see Lucy catching up to us. She started to slow down to a walking pace before meeting up with us. She didn't look happy.

"Hey, watch your manners 'kay. Don't just call her old lady then run off."

"Fine, whatever. But she was taking foreeeeeevvvveeeerrrrr-"

"NATSU,"

"Fine, sheesh." I retort. I feel exhausted but I decide to walk on.

Happy flies beside me on my right. Lucy walks along my left, sighing, seeming more relaxed now.

"Just don't do anything too stupid, okay?" She smiled, beaming.

I swear my heart skipped a beat then.


Lucy POV

Hmm?

Natsu went red for a second then picked up pace. Did I say something?

Whatever, knowing Natsu, he'll be over it soo-

"HEY LUCE!"

I sigh, "What?"

"WE'RE HERE!"

I look up (from my thoughts) to see a big mansion.

It was a double story, wide building. The grey paint was peeling off its sides, the black rooftops more than slightly worn. The many windows, dusty and broken, the door old and close to falling off its hinges. I felt a shiver make its way down my spine. I gulped then walked closer towards the ancient building. The path was made of cobblestone and the grass didn't look like it has been cared for in years. In fact, the yard was full of weeds and dying flowers. It felt similar, the presence of this house and this garden. Have I been here before? I tried to relax, but seeing my surroundings once more, it was the farthest thing from possible.

"Hey Luce, you alright?"

"Huh?" Natsu looks at me worryingly. "Oh, yeah. Just a little nervous, that's all."

"Lucy's scaaaaaaaaaaaaared…" Happy teased.

"I BET YOU ARE TOO, CAT," I retorted.

"Lucy's scary…"Happy is quiet after that.

Natsu laughs. I glare at him, then he shuts up too. "Sorry," he mutters.

I sigh, "Whatever. Let's just get this over with, 'kay?"

They nod, and by the time this conversation was over we were standing on the front porch of the house.
