Title: Epouranios

A/N: The concept of "Heaven" was the first thing that came to mind when I saw this prompt, so I decided to add in most parts from the new ending with the actual scene in Chapter 337.


She woke up to the sight of numerous stars around her.

"Where…am I?"

She rose up from whatever it was she was lying down on, very confused. A million things were running through her head. 'I died, didn't I?' she thought. 'Did they take my body out of the castle?'

She walked through the seemingly empty land, looking for anyone, or anything at least, when her eyes caught a familiar pink mark below her.

She couldn't believe it. Her right arm, the right arm that she lost so long ago…it was there with her. She felt teardrops coming out her eyes when she carefully touched the pink Fairy Tail mark on the back of her hand with her left thumb to confirm that, yes, it really was there, and it's back with her.

And so, with only the moon and stars above to guide her, she walked on. She called, she yelled, she screamed out at the top of her voice, hoping there was someone out there who could hear her in this vast, seemingly endless cloudy land.

The next thing she knew, as if in the blink of an eye, she found herself in the middle of a golden field. The dark night had immediately turned to a bright clear blue day, and she felt a cool breeze pass around her across the field. And as she tried to take in the sudden change around her…

"Hey, Lucy!"

Her eyes grew wide as soon as she heard that familiar voice. 'No…no, it couldn't be,' she thought as she looked behind to the source of that voice.

"Get over here already!" the pink-haired boy said to her with his oh-so-familiar ecstatic tone that made her heart leap.

"Everyone's here waiting!" a blue cat beside him added, jumping up and down in excitement.

She felt tears running down her face as soon as she saw his face. It was Natsu. Her Natsu. And Happy was with him, and they were both alive and well and…

Natsu grabbed her by the wrist and led her forward. As they walked on with Happy flying right behind him, she saw a group of figures in front of them, standing in front of a light so bright and dazzling that words weren't enough to describe its beauty. She recognized who these people were as she got closer to them. Gray. Erza. Wendy. Cana. Gajeel. Juvia. Carla and Panther Lily. Even the master. Everyone, literally everyone was there, and they were all waiting for her with big smiles on their faces.

Natsu faced her as they continued to run forward. "Now," he said with that same grin he had the first time he dragged her to the guild, "let's continue on our adventure."

She had no idea where they were right now, or what they were gonna do from here on, but all of that didn't matter. All that mattered to Lucy was that everyone she loved and cared for was here with her.

"Yeah."

And that was enough for her to call these golden fields around them "Heaven."
