Sorry for before, this had some technical problems. Which it was showing something really strange and no one could understand it. But anyways I hope now it doesn't happen anymore. Let's hope for the best.

But anyways here is the new chapter. Is longer then the other two. And I don't own Fairy Tail

As for the question a quest asked me from the review, I can't answer it back directly so I'll just do it here.

Ccelia- I'm sorry that there won't be a french version of this story because I don't know french.

Chapter 3. Arriving at a forest.

Dear Mama, Father,

Hello. Today, I'm writing this letter in a hotel. I have arrived at a place far away from Magnolia. After spending one day and one night on a train, I just arrived this morning. And now my muscles feel like they are killing me. I'm exhausted from this train ride.

I'm confused with my duties as a living human… I mean, what is the meaning of living? It's not that I don't value my life. In fact, I value my life very much. I just get why we are alive. If our lives are composed of love, hate, violence, magic and death. With the passing of time, they become the most important thing in a person's life. I just don't understand why.

Before you died, Mama, and Father began ignoring me… I felt that my life was a living hell. Even as a child I felt useless and sad. I don't know if it's just me, or is what's happening lately is similar to what happened when I was a child? Maybe that's why I didn't feel sad when the… incident occurred. Well, let's leave that topic.

Like I said before, I'm confused. I don't know what to think anymore. Am I really just going to push everyone away like that? Or should I at least try to trust someone?

Lots of love,

Your confused daughter,

Lucy.

Lucy's POV

The light shines on my face. With that I know it's morning. Every time I get wake up, the morning's light is what I always see.

It took me some time to realize that I'm not in my own apartment anymore. Now, I wake up to see an unfamiliar room. 'Oh right, I left Magnolia,' I remind myself. Then I laugh.

"Well, I guess today is my new beginning, huh?" I asked out loud. It was more like I was talking to myself. I headed to the bathroom, and completed my usual morning routine. I called out Cancer to cut my hair, which is now short, reaching just above my shoulders. One side of the hair falls over one of my eyes so that eye is hidden from the rest of the world. I'm pretty happy with my new look. I think it's worth it because if I want a new beginning, then I will need a new look.

After getting ready, I put on a black sweater and a pair of blue jeans. I put my keys on my belt and I leave the room. I start to look for breakfast, as I'm hungry. Very hungry. Maybe after eating, I'll go explore the forest nearby.

I had a feeling that I would find something interesting there.

When I arrived at the centre, I found a lot of people gathering at one spot.

"What's going on here?" I asked one of the villagers as I moved closer.

"You seems to be new here, young one, but this town has been cursed for a long time. The rumours say it's all because of the mountain god, who's angry. So, we have been suffering all this time. And now the mayor is hoping for someone get rid of it as a job," an old lady explained. I noted that in the centre of the circle, a man is talking. I did my best to listen to what he was saying. He was going on about some type of job request.

"I'll go!" I shouted. All the people turned to me as they spread apart so I could pass through to the centre of the circle.

"It's just a monster, right?" I asked. "I'm a mage, so it wouldn't be a problem for me," I added.

"Are you sure about this, young lady? It is dangerous, even for a mage," the man, who I believe to be the mayor, said. I forced a smile,

"Don't worry! I'll do my best. I have been on tons of dangerous missions, so this one will just be another one," I said.

"Very well. What is your name, young lady?"

"I am Lucy Starlight, sir," I replied. I chose to avoid giving them my real last name because I don't want to be recognized by anyone who knows about Fairy Tail. Or someone who saw the girl that lost twice in the Grand Magic Games.

Curiosity killed the cat, but its satisfaction brought it back.

I headed to the forest soon afterward. I wonder what type of monster will be in this forest.

"Don't worry Lucy, it's just like another mission," I mumbled to myself. "But you were always with another person! Whether it was Natsu or the rest of the team," I pause.

"You are weak, Lucy," my inner voice piped up.

Oh great! Now my inner voice is talking to me. In the end, I ignore it, knowing it won't do anything good for me. I sighed, continuing to walk into the forest. The further in I go, the stronger the magical signal is. Could this be some kind of magical creature? But how can it be this strong?

It might be a dragon. But the question is, how? I know from the books I read, and the dragon slayers, that dragons all disappeared on that one day. 7/07/X777. July 7th, year X777. Everyone says that curiosity kills the cat. I think I'm the cat right now.

Why am I not afraid of death? Even though this might be the last time I breathe and enjoy life. But I don't care, not at all. My attention is diverted from my thoughts as I see light coming from in front of me. I quickly rushed over to see where the light was coming from. As I was hiding behind the bushes, my eyes widened and my mouth dropped open.

Then I fainted of shock.

Curiosity killed the cat, but its satisfaction brought it back.

Behind the bushes, resting, was the most beautiful creature that I've ever seen. It's big, giant. It has beautiful and colourful skin, fur, scales, whatever they were. I'm not sure what it's hide was covered in, but from my angle I think they are scales. Right now, it's sleeping peacefully. I move a little closer and my eyes widen even more. It seems to be a dragon…

How is this possible?

I move closer to touch the scales, which feel warm and welcoming. I hear sounds and see signals of it waking up. I start to panic, but I'm frozen in my place.

"Are you a human?" the 'it' is a she, her voice soft and caring. Hearing her voice, I feel slightly better. I nodded.

"Yeah. I'm Lucy Starlight. Nice to meet you. I'm sorry if I woke you up. I'll go now," I said nervously.

"Wait, child. Don't go. You're the first human I have met during my 1000 years of life. You are very interesting. And I see potential in you, young mage," she pauses. "I'm Colorina the colour dragon. I want to teach you my power."

"Really? Why me? I'm weak," I said.

"Don't say that. No one is weak. Everyone has their own strength. Don't think you are weak. I've been looking for someone with a kind heart, and now I have met you. However, you are the first human I have ever met."

"Thank you, Colorina," I smiled as I relaxed. "Oh, I almost forget why I am here… Are you the one who is controlling the village?" I asked.

"Yes. You see, I'm the guardian of this forest and this land. Many years ago I was sent here to protect this part of the world. Originally, this was meant to be sacred, where no human would ever set foot. But one day this became a populated place. I feel the lives around this land. In the beginning, I was angry, so I used magic to teach them lessons," she pauses and takes a breath before starting again. "But then I got used to it, so after some time, I stopped attacking them. But now I feel bad things coming here, so I want everyone to leave this village. So that they'll be safe," Colorina explained. I nodded.

"Um… I see," I take a deep breath. "Could you show me how your magic works? I know a little bit about dragon slayer magic because I know dragon slayers, but from you're telling me, it seems to be different," I said in a rush, anxious.

"You are right child, but let me ask you a question. Why do the leaves on the trees appear green?" The dragon asked. I thought for a moment before answering,

"Because when the light reflects on them, the natural colour of the leaves reflects back at us, which, to our minds, is light composed of all the colours," I explained. "But the chlorophyll doesn't absorb much of the green light, so the leaves appear green because most of the light reflected is green light."

"Correct. So here you have it; I'm the colour Dragon, my element, instead of fire, ice, earth or air is 'colour', although you could say that my magic has to do with light because my weakness is darkness," she said

"Because in the dark we can't see any colours, right?" I finished and she nodded.

"Yes, that's right,"

"What do you eat? I mean, other dragon slayers eat their element, so do you eat colour?" she nodded once again

"Yes, my magic allows me to eat anything that has a colour within it. I can't eat anything transparent," she explained.

"So if you are going to teach me dragon slayer magic, when can we start?" I asked.

"We can start right now, if you want. It's not hard at all. Here, eat this. It's one of my scales." She slowly wiggled a piece of her scale from her tail, passing it to me. It's beautiful. I hesitated before putting it in my mouth and swallowing. As I swallowed it, a feeling of an unfamiliar energy in my body grew.

Then everything went black. Again.

Curiosity killed the cat, but its satisfaction brought it back.

I opened my eyes because of the bright light on my face. 'This is the second time I've woken up in an unfamiliar place,' I sighed.

"You are awake, I see," a sweet female voice said. I sat up and peered over my shoulder and saw a woman who looked to be in her 20's. She has beautiful, long white hair that reached to the ground, and beautiful teal eyes. She's wearing a casual black dress with a white scarf. (Familiar with this appearance?! She is basically a female version of Toshiro Hitsugaya from Bleach.) Apart from that, her appearance is simple with no makeup or jewelry.

"Um… who are you? Where am I? I remember being with a dragon and her name is Colorina. Where is she?!" I said, panicked. I hope what happened wasn't just a dream.

The woman giggled,

"That's me, child. What do you think of this form?" she asked while spinning around. A shocked expression takes over my face.

"How? I thought that-"

"Dragons can't transform?" she finished, with a smile on her beautiful face. I nodded and she laughed again.

"Well, you know nothing," she took a look at my hurt face and quickly added, "Not that anyone really does. I can change whenever I want to. It would be too uncomfortable to move around in that size for long! Well, enough about me! I was right that you have potential! You survived after eating my scale! So, tell me, do you feel any different?" Colorina asked. I looked down at my hands, and a sudden burst of magical power appeared in my hand as an ball of magic and light with a mixture of different colours

"Wow! Colorina, this is beautiful! Is this your magic?" I asked, amazed.

"Yes, Lucy dear! And you will be training under me from now on! Now that you are up, we should go!" she said. My eyes widened again.

"We? You're coming with me, Colorina?" I asked. Colorina nodded,

"Yes, I'll go with you. From what I know you were supposed to hunt me and take the monster back to the village. So, why not go and get the money so we can leave for your adventure? You do want to improve your magic, right?" She smirked.

"How did you know?"

"One of the… consequences… of obtaining my power is that I could read your mind. Although I only read your past and not the thoughts that you're having now!" She stopped. "So, it's like everything you've done in the past had me there beside you!" she exclaimed.

I stare into space, speechless. So many things have happened. I didn't say anything as I got up from the hard ground and followed her as she led the way towards the village.

Curiosity killed the cat, but its satisfaction brought it back.
