Chapter 3: Unexpected Hero
Lucy Heartfellia was a very good looking young woman with blonde hair and a killer body not only that a good personality and magic skills right now she stood in a magic shop talking to the owner
"What this is the only magic shop in town" she complained
Afraid so the people here are more fishing folk then they are magic folk".
Lucy looked around "all this way for nothing, I wanted some magic items to protect me" Lucy thought.
Lucy was honestly not use to being on her own, she ran away from home about a month ago and just wanted to get to clover which was on a different island not only did she need a ship to get there but she didn't exactly trust a lot of the shady people that come into port.
Lucy left the magic shop disappointed as she walked around the street until she saw a big group of girls all screaming and running to town square.
"What is going on?" she asked no one
As she walked toward over to the source of the madness. As she approached the town square she saw a tall handsome man with dark purple hair, and suddenly Lucy was in love completely head over heels.
Meanwhile Natsu and his exceed happy were walking down the street when they heard a commotion people were yelling
"Salamander, Salamander"
Natsu only knew two people ever called Salamander, him and more importantly his father Igneel. Natsu quickly ran toward the crowd, Natsu made his way through the sea of young women till he got to the middle "Igneel, Igneel, it's me" but when he got to the middle he just saw a man with purple hair, he looked nothing like Igneel.
Natsu just looked at him with a rather uninterested look on his face
"Who are you?" Natsu questioned.
"Me? Surely you have heard of the great pirate Salamander" the man answered in a cocky tone.
Natsu gave him a confused look "of course I've heard of him" Natsu said
"Well then what can the great and powerful Salamander do for..." Bora stopped midsentince as he noticed Natsu walking away.
Then suddenly
"How rude"
"You should pay attention when he talks to you"
girls shouted as they attacked Natsu
"now, now ladies there's no need for that" The man said as he walked away. As the women walked behind him they said something about the man being the great pirate Salamander.
Happy walked up to Natsu who was still sitting down after being attacked.
"I thought you were the Pirate Salamander" happy commented.
Before Natsu could answer a young women with blonde hair came up to him
"Thanks for saving me back there" Natsu stood up and in a confused voice
"Um no problem... I guess" he said as he started to walk away
"Wait" the girl yelled at him
"Let me buy you some lunch as a thank you"
With that Natsu and happy immediately stopped in there tracks.
"Did you say Lunch?" Natsu asked
"Um yeah" she said a little unsure now
"Let's go" Natsu said as he grabbed her hand and started dragging her to the nearest restaurant
Lucy felt like she was in love with this man that called himself Salamander. When suddenly a young man with pink hair busted in, luckily for Lucy this broke a love spell and she noticed the Love charm on the man's finger. Lucy thought she would thank the young man for saving her and maybe get a traveling companion so she wouldn't have to go alone, now she sat at a table with the pinked haired man and his blue cat.
Lucy couldn't believe how they ate you think they hadn't had food for weeks.
"Um my name is Lucy" introduced herself,
"I'm Natsu and this is Happy" The Pink haired man said cheerfully between swallows.
"I want to thank you guys for saving me" Lucy told them.
"No problem it's what we do" Natsu proclaimed with an added
"Aye" from Happy.
"So do you live around here" Lucy asked
"No, I live on a boat most of the time" Natsu said. Perfect Lucy thought maybe she can convince him to give her a ride.
"How about you" Natsu asked.
"No I'm on my way to Clover, I was just passing through" Lucy said cheerfully
"what kind of Boat do you Live on" Lucy asked hopping it was a passenger ship.
Natsu looked at her bluntly and said
"A Pirate Ship, were pirates"
"Aye" happy added once again.
Lucy felt her entire body fill with fear
"P...p...pirates" Lucy sputtered out
"Yep, real live pirates" Natsu answered
"Well I got to um go enjoy the food" Lucy managed to say as she left. "Ok see you later" Natsu said cheerfully.
"Yeah not if I'm Lucky Lucy thought as she left the building.
Natsu was heading back to the ship, Erza is going to kill him for being gone to long but as he was walking down the road he smelled something familiar it was fear not only fear that guy from town square and... Lucy
"Lucy" Natsu said under his breath
"What is it Natsu" Happy asked, instead of answering Natsu smelled the air and ran down the street has he shouted
"Come on this way hurry" Happy's wings magically appeared on his back as he followed Natsu
"Aye Sir"
It was about two hours after the time they were supposed to Set sail Erza and Grey sat on the docks impatiently
"Maybe we should send out Gajeel and the Exceeds to go look for him" Grey suggested Erza ignored his suggestion and just clinched her fist
"He better have a good excuse for this" Erza said in a threatening tone.
Just then Natsu came over the horizon carrying a young woman. Both Grey and Erza were pretty shocked that he actually had an excuse and was carrying it no less.
"Get Wendy" Natsu commanded, and with that grey immediately took of toward the ship to find Wendy.
