~Natsu's P.O.V~
The guild was in despair. We had forgotten Lucy, and that was even the worst thing we had done. We had hurt her so much that she had left Fairy tail. We were the worst kind of people. I needed to forget Lucy again, but I have no Idea what happened the first time.
~Once again, a time skip. 3 months~
~Lucy's P.O.V~
I should have left already. But I'm still undecided of what I should do. I keep looking to the starts for guidance. There might be a sign from my mother up there, but that's just wistful thinking I guess.
I was sitting in my favourite spot in Yaise no forest. It was the place I'd jumped from. For some reason I had taken a shining to it. Maybe it was how the water felt on my feet, or the sounds of the birds that came done for a drink. I don't know but I loved it. On this day the sun was high, and the breeze was cooling. There was no sound at all.
Until I heard someone crashing through the forest. It wasn't Loke. I hadn't seen him for a month; I'd asking to be left alone to think of what to do next. And besides this person was too loud.
I sighed inwardly. 13 months and not a single person had been here. I looked once more to the sky. Maybe this was the sign I'd been waiting for. I stood up and went in search of the noise (Note: For some reason I'm thinking of a horror movie as I write this. I mean come on, girl in the forest alone walks towards a sound? Seems stupid.)
It wasn't hard to tell where she/he was. They were not at all quite in there hast of the forest. I walked over, not even shifing a leaf, and steped right into her path. It turned out to be a little girl. Now this was intresting.
"Hi sweetie what are you doing in this forest all alone? Hmm?" I gave her my best charming smile, and….. Scared the hell out of her cause she started wailing. "Oh honey i-I'm sorry. Please stop crying!" I begged. When had kids gotten so hard to control?
"P-please help me! There's a bad person chasing m-me!" she wailed cling on to me. Someone's chasing her? I looked over her shoulder and saw a girl with raven coloured hair. She was staring at me with disbelief, as I pulled the girl behind me.
"Who are you? I didn't think anyone lived out here!" She called over. Her eyes shifted from me to the girl.
"Who I am doesn't matter, but what does is I'm not going to let you hurt this child!" I screeched running at her.
"Wha-" I hit her in the face, sending her flying back. She stood up like it was nothing. "Why are you defending that demon!" She yelled. Demon? I looked behind me to see the kids eyes pure black. Shit, I'd been had. As fast as I could I spun around and shot and the child, slamming her in the face. Braking whatever spell she was casting. The raven haired girl ran over and tied her hands behind her back, locking a necklace to subdue her power.
"Thanks, even though you did help her out." She placed the kid on her shoulder. "Her names Isabella, she's wanted for murdering her own family. Lost her mind over something. I'm Starla by the way."
"Lucy. Why where you after her?" I know she killed someone but for what reason was Starla chasing her.
"Hmm? Oh I took the mission. I'm a wizard of the spring time guild." A guild wizard? "Anyway why are you out here?"
"I've been training for the last year. I wanted to become a stronger wizard. But now I don't know what to do." I looked down unsure of how to deal with her.
"Well I didn't know you a year ago, but your strong now. If you want I'm sure you could come join spring time, we're not famous or anything, but we get the job done." An invite? To a guild. Humph looks like signs are real.
"I'd love to." I squealed. I hope mum had sent this to me. It was some good luck.
~Skip to Lucy getting her spring time emblem~
~Lucy's P.O.V~
"Master I'm back!" Starla called throwing open the guild doors. I looked around the guild. It was beautiful, made out of marble with flowers growing around it, given it a somewhat Greek look. The guild was on an island not far off sure, there were a few buildings around, but the guild was rather far away from them. The members where I mixture to. From some elegant looking ladies to a bunch brawling in the corner. A little girl sat on the counter at the back. She smiled at Starla and me. Wonder who she is. "Hiya master!" Starla called to the little girl. She was the master? That little girl? "Master Lucy here wants to join our humble little guild." I smiled at her. Maybe this wasn't such a good Idea.
"I know what you're thinking. And yes I am a little young. But my age doesn't decide how powerful I am. My Name is Amber-Gray. But you call me Amber. What's your name?" Such pretty eyes. I felt like I should tell her everything about me, but she only asked my name so that's what she got.
"L-Lucy." Wow this kid was the master? She was staring at me with such intensity.
"Lucy huh? Well if you really want to join you're welcome to. Starla can place the emblem on you" she went back to drinking her milk. Funny kid.
I turned around and saw Starla pull out a stamp.
"Where do you want it and what colour?" I showed her my shoulder and asked for it in gold. It turned out to be a cherry blossom, blossoming. It was beautiful.
Starla smiled at me and showed me around.
"Okay, since our Guild master is 9 we can't, get any booze here. But that's okay. Not far from here is a bar, they sell to us pretty cheap, as long as master doesn't buy it. Over there's the request board. We don't get many world ending requests out here. Umm lets see, of right Luna runs a café up stares, they have the best muffins ever. Umm and that's really it. Oh yeah and just off to the right are the guild dorms. Me and my team share one together. So what ya going to do first?" Starla talked a lot.
"I guess, I'll go on a mission." It as true, I needed money so a mission might be good.
"Oh I'll come with you then. Come on." She tugged me over to the request board.
"Wait didn't you just get back?"
"Oh yeah, no biggy, I love doing missions, and since my team members are still on there mission I'll go on one with you, kay? Kay." I have no idea ehat just happened but I think I'm on her team.
"Oh hey this looks good. It's only a few bandits, we have to round up. Easy peasy." True I did look easy, and the reward was high.
"Hye Starla how much is rent?" It was a good question.
"80.000 jewels pure month., that's why I live with two other people." 8-80.000 a month? No way I can afford that!
"Hmm? Oh if you want you can live with me. The houses are designed for 4 anyway.
"Y-yes please."
"Grate! Welcome to the team. Teehee." Did she really just teehee?
"wait, don't you have to ask you other members?"
"Hmm? Oh no. it's my team, and we were looking for a fourth person. Plus your strong, pretty, you made me laugh a lot on the way here. Your grate."
Oh how sweet. "Thanks Starla. Now let's go kick some bandit ass!"
