I am FINALLY back in America! Now I can go back to either daily or weekly posts again! :D... If jet lag doesn't get me first... Anyway! Here is the promised longer chapter with time skip!


4 Months Later

"Mistress Lucy, we will forever miss you," Sebastian says, holding back tears while the rest of the servants cry.

"Mistress Lucy..."

"Please come back!"

"If only we watched her carefully!"

"Not just that, Taurus, we don't even have a body to bury!"

"Now both Mistresses are gone..."

'I am deeply sorry that your father pressured you that much, Mistress Lucy...' Sebastian thinks as his other thoughts wander to the day Lucy jumped...


"Lucy! Where are you?!" the servants of the Heartfilia household yelled, "Your father needs you!"

It had been 2 months after the rigorous training of marriage, business, and succeeding her father, and everyone knew she was reaching her limit. Her usual happy smile had hidden behind a much darker aura and frown, which grew even more when Mistress Layla had passed away.

"Lucy!"

"Mistress Lucy!"

"..."

"LUCY!~ Where are you and your nice body?!"

"You better come out before I hose you down, Lucy!"

"Is it punishment time, Mistress Lucy?"

And so on. The yelling of the servants grew louder and louder as time reached sunset. As the servants continued to yell, Sebastian headed towards the edge of the Heartfilia Household, where there were cliffs above the ocean, a beautiful scene at sunrise or sunset. And that was where Sebastian found her.

"Lucy! Everyone's looking for you!" Sebastian said, glad he found her without injury. Sadly, his happiness would disappear within moments.

"Sebastian, can you promise me something?" Lucy asked, not turning around to face him, just staring off into the ocean.

"Of course, Lucy. What is it?" Sebastian replied with a bit of curiosity.

Lucy sighed and turned around, and Sebastian saddened at the sight of tears going down her face, "Don't lose faith and try to come with me."

Sebastian was confused at this request, "What do you mean-"

"Goodbye, Sebastian," Lucy said before jumping.

"Mistress Lucy!" Sebastian yelled as he ran to the edge, but Lucy was already taken by the ocean.


'Mistress Lucy...' finally, he lets the tears drop, 'I truly will forever miss you.'

One by one, everyone puts a flower on her grave, all except Jude.

"Go back to work!" he yells as he goes back to the mansion, "A girl who couldn't handle my training is no daughter of mine. I have no children!"

Silently, they all head back to the mansion behind Jude, all except Sebastian who remains in front of the grave.

It wasn't intricately designed like her mother's, but it was still elegant nonetheless with flowers, and the mark of Fairy Tail to show the time she spent with them.

Rest in Peace
Lucy Heartfilia
Beloved Daughter and Friend

"Farewell, Lucy," Sebastian finally says before going inside.


In Magnolia, Fairy Tail cries as they hear of the news as well, sent by Sebastian.

"Why did you jump, Lucy?"

"Please come back!"

"Lucy..."

The gloomy atmosphere returns to Fairy Tail once again, even heavier than before.

Meanwhile, a girl washes up on shore of Magnolia, her clothes ragged. At the sight of her, many fishermen run over to her and try to get her to wake up, "Hey! Are you alright?!"

The girl groans and slowly opens her eyes, "Where am I?"

The fishermen sigh with relief, "Thank god you're alright. What's your name?"

The girl frowns for a while, and finally says, "I think it's Lucy."

"Alright Lucy, do you remember anything?"

She shakes her head.

At this the fishermen turn to each other, speaking.

"What should we do?"

"Hmm... Send her to an orphanage?"

"Nah, what about one of those shelters? There's one here in Magnolia."

"Oh yeah! What was it called again?"

"I think it was Fairy Tail."

At this, Lucy feels sharp pain in her head, 'Fairy Tail?'

"Yeah! Good idea!"

"Let's give her something to cover up with and send her there."

The fishermen then move to give her a large towel, and walk her to Fairy Tail, Lucy wondering why her head was hurting.

"Alright!"

"This is Fairy Tail."

Lucy looks up, her headache suddenly becoming even worse until she finally faints.

"Lucy!" they yell, loud enough to attract the attention of Fairy Tail, who goes outside and gasp at the sight of Lucy.

"Lucy!" everyone yells with confusion, joy, or surprise, "She's alive!"


Tada~ Sorry if it wasn't long enough for some people...
