Chapter 2: Lucy


"Then why don't you try killing me? If you do that, you'll be in bigger trouble than this! Fairy Tail will never forgive you! That's the kind of guild they are! You'll be shivering under the shadow of the world's scariest guild every day for the rest of your life!"- Lucy

Family. The one word Lucy didn't understand. When her mother died, she was deprived of a complete family, shattering her vision of a perfect childhood. But now she was being selfish. The real person she was worried about was her father. After the death of her mother, he was dragged into a state of despair and grief, immersing himself in his work. This went on for days, then weeks, then months, then years. One day, it reached a tipping point.

Her father sat across the hall of his office, looking at his paperwork, occasionally stopping to sign something. Lucy held a tiny rice ball in her hand, slowly stepping on the carpet. Once she came to her father's desk, she placed the rice ball on his desk, stepping away and suggested for him to eat it. For one moment, his eyes looked at the rice ball, seaweed and all. He picked it up. Then, he threw it across hall, it hitting the ground and the rice spread all over. "Don't disturb me!"her father shouted, his voice echoing off the walls. Lucy looked up, tears streaming down her face. She ran from her father, wiping her eyes. That was the day she decided to run away.

Now, she was in Fairy Tail which was an...interesting guild to say the least. Sure, Elfman would rant about being a man, and sure, Natsu would sneak into her house and stay there for no reason. It was all in good fun. Now, she understood what family meant. Now, she knew who her real family was. Now, she knew where she really belonged.

She belonged in Fairy Tail.

Fairy Tail was her only family.
