I don't own fairytail but if I try to convince Mashima Sensei maybe there's a chance.. Lol kidding.

"It is so beautiful when you get to see the world with different colors and you are next to me. I'm so glad right now." Lisaanna said as she was standing at the highest balcony of East Wing of the Palace.
"Hmm." Natsu wasn't listening to her chattering, just nodding his head. He was worried about the fact that he hadn't seen Lucy today. It's been two whole days. He was getting insane.
"My lord! I'll be delighted if you could join me for the night event." Lisaanna wanted to spend time with him. But he was lost in another realm. It's strange because prince Natsu was always on alert.
"I cannot give you my words. I have some business to attend." he stood up to left the suffering. But Lisaanna grasped his wrist. He glared at her.
"Forgive me Lord but Queen Mavis told me that you will join me for my tour this evening. So you can't go anywhere." she gave him one of her perfect smile.
'Damnit! Why Mavis gave orders?'
He can't disobey her. She was one of very few people he responded with respect. He needs to hide from this mess. He can't stood this stubborn princesses. Even she was his childhood friend but he had other pressing matters. He knew Lisaanna was in love with him.
But he could not give her what he does not possess himself.
His heart and love belongs to someone unknown of his longing and one side of suffering from separation.
The naive beauty of the blood of her last clan.
Princess Lucy Heartfilia.
X_X
Everywhere was happiness and time of celebration. The Dragon festival was one of the sacred festivals for Alveraz kingdom. They were blessed with the sacred blood of Dragon lord Igneel himself.
Lucy looked around maids were taking out there best clothes for the night. She looked at their clothes, It wasn't the best or expensive silk but clean enough to wear for night.
Poor people knew that they were happy even they don't have money, jewel or Palace. She was princess living in luxury but she was learning to adapt to the way commoner would live.
"Lucy! You are going tonight?" Mara a fellow castle maid asked her as she was prepared for the night fest.
"I don't know Mara. But I intend to join." Lucy smiled softly. Very few people who dare to talk to her.
"OK"
Lucy was glad Mara was finally holding a conversation with her.
"So I have a request for you." Mara said.
"What?" Lucy didn't want to see this girl was just faking the whole friendship facade.
" I've never been to a Prince Natsu's performance. So if you don't mind please help me out. I need to look presentable. So please complete my chores. I'll owe you a big thank you for your help." she literally bowed infornt of her.
"No it's ok." Lucy knew every girl wants to look fabulous and beautiful in her own way. She was pampered and spoiled by her mother. She looked at the dry and rough skin of Mara. Apparently every maid was like this, skin tore and damage from harsh treatment and heavily working.
"I was appointed to clean the lanterns from the room of second floor. And please clear the closet also. Clean that first then you can go." Mara bow down and left.
Lucy sighed as she rolled down her sleeves. She looked at her hands. Her nails broken and pores were rough. Once flawless and smooth skin now dry and cold.
" Welcome to the reality Princess." she mocked herself. As she took some cleaning products and made her way out of the hall room for her work. She turned to the corner under the staircase. When she saw the castle royal guards.
They were talking about something. She didn't like prying into other people private business. But when she heard her kingdom name. She froze.
"The whole kingdom was burn to ashes. Nothing left. But we don't know if Queen Layla or Princess Lucy is dead or still alive." one guard said.
"I think the fire which was used is the same magic as Prince Natsu. The blazing fire of dragon." the other one replied. Before Lucy could here more they were gone in different direction.
She clutch the rag to her chest. Suddenly the air felt heavy around her. She knew her kingdom was abolished by fire. But it was dragon fire. Same as the one that Natsu's ancient fire.
Lucy ran to the lamtern room. She looked around and found many kind of expensive and mesmerizing glass or gold lanterns were there. Shining and glazing in light. Her heart was heavy. She needed to know about fire magic.
She was out of her room as she looked around. Her answer were hidden in the Royal library. Only ministers and Royal family was allowed to be there. Lucy entered slowly from the window. And avoided the guards on the entrance.
She was melting with the sight infront of her. She loved to write and read. This was her poison. She wish to be here. But circumstances were not very favorable. So she did not waste the time as she searched for the book in fire magic.
She found a book. It was named as
'Dragon origin with magical blood.'
She opened the first page. And read the very first line. It was about the myth how dragon came to this world by traveling into the world of this time period. Sne didn't have time to read whole history. Maybe in future. But right now she got different priorities.
She skipped few pages when a stanza caught her eyes.
'Dragons are born with half soul they find the other half for once in the life time. If they are not together. They will face horrible consequences. Their souls will be the guide to the path of finding each other. They need to be in the same ti-'
Suddenly she heard the loud voice. She panic when tried to find a place to hide quietly in haste.
A small closet near the history department.
X_X
Lucy felt her heartbeat was very fast. She felt nervous, she was in forbidden place. What if they executed her. She was a mere castle maid who broke into royal documents and library.
She prayed to celestial stars to guide her. She was inside a small closet barely any place to move. It was so dark. She always hated dark places it gave her nightmares. She leaned against wood-board walls and hugged her arms tighter around her chest, gaze fixed on the line of light at the base of the door.
She kept herself busy counting the minutes until it would be safe to try and get out of there. Lucy shouldn't even have been there in the first place, but one hiding place was as good as another when she heard the sound of door opened and slammed.
As soon as she recognized it was two peoples talking.Lucy had hastily moved to the back and escaped into the private hallways. She'd hoped for a window but somehow ended up with a closet; the brief minutes inside it so far had been tense and lonely. Noise, and shouting, and all manner of intimidating sounds echoed back to Lucy from outside. She was getting prepared to open the door a crack and do some reconnaissance when she felt something warm in her heart.
"Mira pretend to be me. I can't spend another second with her." a deep, gruff voice she never heard, Lucy felt something awakening inside her as she felt her head was hurting all of sudden.
X_X
Natsu was with Mira. He was trying to avoid Lisaanna. But he could not disobey Mavis. So he requested Mira to use her shape shifting magic to save him.
" Ok" Mira nodded in understanding as he froze on the spot. Mira closed her eyes and Natsu was shocked when he saw his reflection smiling charmingly at him.
"Quit laughing. I don't smile." he frowned as he ordered her. But his heart and mind messing with him.
How she can be here. He can feel her presence and smell her scent in the air.
Maybe his desire to be with her is so strong that he is hallucinating.
Suddenly he heard the giggling voice of Lisaanna and her friends. He needs to hide. Before he could make a move Mira shoved him in the small closet behind them.
X_X
Lucy froze when she felt the door was suddenly opened swung wide of its own accord and a large silhouette was shoved in her direction.
"You'll be safe in here, just don't make too much noise. And don't come out or destroy anything. For Kami sake don't start any fires."
The door slammed shut again, leaving Lucy with a stranger. Lucy felt his magic was strong and she heard he can use fire. He was fire wizard. His magic was fire. She felt a relaxing warmth filled her body. His back to her and there was barely enough space to turn around, less than a foot between them at the furthest.
"Who's there?" his sharp voice asked. "If you don't answer in the next three seconds I'll consider you a threat and I will hurt you."
At the sound of voice the sparks and goosebumps she felt was difficult to ignore. She hoped and prayed to Zodiac stars that he was not her enemy. She didn't want to deal with Royal family!
A faint creak moved through the air of the tiny closet as she began to shift a little. Before she could think about anything. Her position changed and a man's hand clamped down on her shoulder, spun her roughly, and finished by bracing her face-first against the wall.
His breath tickled her neck, bringing back flashes of being rescued by shadow. She felt pounding in her head. Why his arms were familiar to her.
She couldn't remember it. She was the last blood heir of Heartfilia blood. She won't let anyone hurt her, and she wondered if she could knock the wind out of him with a solid blow from her elbow. It would have to wait until he relaxed a fraction: right now he held one arm across her shoulder-blades to pin her down while his other hand ignited a tiny flame to the left of their heads.
Her eyes were wide when she saw his other fist was lightened in flames. She was afraid of fire. But still she could not scream. The fear was real.
Natsu blink rapidly. She could not be here. It was illusion that she was standing in front of him. He need to confirm it. He couldn't trust his sense right now.
With her cheek pressed hard against the wall, Lucy was able to sneak a glance at the face of her captor.
Pink hairs.
Her breath caught in her throat. No no no..
Suddenly she felt a voice in her head as she began to lose her consciousness.
Natsu was waiting for her to make a move. But he was in dangerous situation right now. Lucy always scream whenever she saw fire. But this girl was calm and composed.
Lucy open her eyes. Her pink hair captor was Natsu Dragneel the great fire dragon lord. The blessing of fire himself. Born from the breath of fire King Igneel. It was the prince indeed, and he didn't look any more excited to see her than she felt to see him. His expression shifted from startlement to affrontery and finally settled at mysterious expression.
"I-I.. Forgive me highness. I'm just a low key maid. Don't punish me."
Natsu froze on his spot. It was her but what was she doing here? He needs to act normal even his inside were raging storms. .
"Oh, you," he muttered, and his hands dropped from her back. Lucy took a sigh of relief, grateful and at the same time but she felt that voice inside her head again. What's up with her inner voice?
"Natsu"
A voice called his name and her eyes were dark brown. Natsu could not tell but something was different about her.
She rubbed her neck tiredly and watched her fellow closeteer retreat as far away as possible. Their enclosure was tiny, and he could put less than dozen inches between them.
"I've missed you." she smiled at him.
Natsu blinked hard. What the hell? Did she found out about his alter form. That he was Shadow.. But her eyes held the dangerous mischief.
She wasn't his helpless, scared, innocent Lucy. Yet she wore her smile like a fierce weapon and stood her head high like a princess. She was same but still different in many ways.
"You missed me?" Natsu don't know what to say about it. He wants to know what she was thinking. The Fire prince just frowned faintly and looked away.
Lucy bristled at the dismissal, and let sarcasm seep into her tone. "What brings you to this closet,your highness? Finally you remembered me. You have no idea how long I have been waiting for you Natsu"
He nearly lost his breath. His heart stopped for a second.
Say what??
"Lucy?" he tried to look for any clue. Just even a little bit her sentences were making any sense to him.
"What are you doing here Natsu?" she asked in such a sweet voice. He was enslaved in her invisible chains.
"I'm hiding from Lisaanna. Now tell me what you are up to. We haven't talked. Yet you are so bold with me."
"Damn! You don't remember me. Well now I see. Well I was here for something. But I was hiding from castle guards."
"They can't hear us with all the noise outside. Besides, you saw how far back the closet was." She eyed the door frame in the low light of his burning flame —his entire body practically blocked it.
Suddenly Lucy blinked and nearly scream when she saw Natsu was so close to her.
" Your highness. Please forgive me." she apologized for thousands of times.
Natsu was taken aback. She was again a scared mouse. The ferocious tigress was hidden somewhere. What was it. A personality disorder or something. Or she was in trauma that she had built a double identical to be same.
He had read in medical books about this kind of situations. Porlyusica was their head healer. He always borrowed books from her.
Lucy don't know what was going on.. She realised it was the scary prince. She'd have to convince him to switch places if she wanted to escape, and she'd prefer running for her life over being trapped in a small dark place with Fire Lord himself . He'd already proved he could restrain her before she had the time or room to do any tricks. Even she wasn't a powerful mage yet. She could not beat him, and in this tiny box his size gave him the advantage. Why oh why didn't she carry a knife like grandma Zara had suggested when they separated after disaster hit her kingdom.
Suddenly her eyes changed it was dark brown again and a vicious smile gracing her lips.
Natsu, know she have multiple personality disorder. Whenever she panic a ferocious and wild Lucy comes out. Right now she looks like prepared to attack him. But couldn't find any weapon.
He voiced the same conclusion: "You don't have any weapons, do you? It's pretty stupid of you not to carry something. If I were to threaten you in here you couldn't do much."
Lucy's breath hitched in her throat. "Are you going to threaten me?" she asked carefully. No inflection, no tone: a question that conveyed nothing.
He was liking this side of her. Natsu's mouth twitched into a faint shadow of his former smirk. "No. Hurting you I can't even think about it."
"You're right," she replied. Lucy's spine was straight as an arrow, her chin high. "Because if you were threatening me, I'd have to resort to more creative methods of attack. Do you know I belong to the ancient line of celestial wizards. I can summon powerful spirit on you." She didn't add the other things she was pretty sure she could do things with him.
She never revealed her secrets. And she just started learning magic. All she got is Plue. What powerful spirit she was talking about??
The prince's gaze narrowed as he tried to determine if Lucy was bluffing. His eyes were dark as night in the firelight, lacking that dangerous edge of onyx . It made him seem less frightening, somehow.
"Perhaps," he said at last, but still she was defenceless and like a rabbit to get hunted easily. "But as it is there's not much point in threatening each other here."
The place was small and Natsu heard Lisaanna was still outside talking to Mira who was altering his form. The oxygen was low so he didn't want to burn the air with flames. They still need to breath. Especially her.
With his words the fire went out and Lucy was plunged into darkness once more time.
Hey!" she whispered loudly. "What'd you do that for? Bring it back so I can see you!"
She will be death of him. Her sudden change of behaviour was scariest thing. But he needs to find out why Lucy is behaving this way. A deep voice rumbled from the direction of the door. "Feel the walls. This place is a very small, and on top of that there's not a lot of air. We don't need sight badly enough to risk it."
His logic was maddening, but it had its intended effect. She huffed and settled against the wall. They coexisted in the dark quiet for several minutes, by Lucy's count. Eventually she began to fidget, unwilling to ignore the fact that someone as dangerous as Natsu was standing so uncomfortably near when she was unable to see him.
"What's wrong with you now?" Natsu asked in darkness.
"What?" she said blankly, pulled out of her hands to her side.
"Stop fidgeting."
"How did you know I was fidgeting?"
"We're pretty close. I can hear every move you make in here." Lucy found suddenly that if she listened, so could she feel him. It was all familiar to each other.
"You stop. You keep squeezing your fists and popping your fingers, and I can hear you just as well as you can hear me. It's not fair your highness"
"Fine."
"Fine."
Another minute passed, and then, "Natsu."
"What."
Lucy drew in a breath. "What happened to your mother?"
She wasn't sure why that question had popped out, because when she'd said about his mother she'd meant to ask him why he blame himself for her death. But this came out instead, and after the words left her lips Lucy found herself desperate to know his answer.
As if the reply would give her some insight into Natsu's changing behavior, why he was ruthless and cold. She didn't have any explanation but all she knew. He was all. She care about.
"Nothing happened," Natsu eventually replied, "But I don't believe you really care, so why are you asking me? We just talked and yet you are talking like we are old friends"
"I'm worried about you," she said, and ignored his question. It was a mistake: six seconds later she was pressed roughly against the back wall of the closet again, this time facing Natsu. He held her arms back with both of his and although their bodies weren't quite touching she could feel his shape a hairs breadth away.
"You are playing with fire. Stop this false facade. I am tired. Sometimes you pretend you scared of me like I'm a monster but now you care about me. Why?" he hissed, face too close to hers in the darkness. Lucy had a terrifying flash of fear that he would breath fire and burn her like her kingdom and palace was burned in fire, but the fear passed when she reminded herself who she was dealing with and where they were.
She recognized him.
Natsu.
"Why Lucy! Tell me what you really are and what I should believe?" Natsu continued, tightening his grip on her wrists. "Why are you so interested suddenly when you are scared and avoiding me all the time. Tell me. Why?"
Lucy had been preparing to explain and defend herself as simply that they belong to each other. She was going to tell him everything, but his last sentence irritated her with its needless paranoia.
"I care that's why. When it's comes to you I'll always care, you moron. It's in my nature to care about you, even all the lives I've lived with in the past. If you weren't so paranoid every time someone tried to help , maybe things would work out better for you. I bet you've pissed off pretty much everyone you've ever met, but still, not everyone is out to hurt you. Don't blame yourself. It was not your fault!"
Natsu growled, "You don't make any sense . And you have no idea what's hell I'm going through whenever you are near me. You are poison for me. Why God? "
"My name is Lucy. Not poison," she snarled in return. "I know you know it, so use it! Now just let me go."
"Why should I?"
"Let me go , Natsu."
"No," he said, and Lucy had the absurd thought that he was refusing just to be contrary.
"Let me go now or I'll make you," she warned in a fierce whisper.
He still remember her scared little form. She could barely kill a fly.
He said "Don't make me laugh," so she lifted her knee to bash him in the groin. To her shock he not only deflected it, but in doing so ended up with his leg between hers and her body pressed firmly between him and the wall. For a moment, everything stopped. Life outside their enclosure receded, sounds fading to a distant whisper until all that remained were the two young people in a world of their own. A private world that, with a single act, had shifted in incalculable ways.
Little about their positions had actually changed but Lucy's perspective was suddenly altered, quite possibly forever. With his leg pressed between hers and her chest flush against his.
Natsu was the only one who had a power to flare these emotions and wild side of her. Still with arms and legs and a mouth that were all very, very close. Lucy had no idea what he was thinking but it must have been as staggering as her own thoughts because neither of them had spoken in practically an eon.
What was she supposed to do now? What did she want to do? She believed they were still not clear about each other.
He wasn't moving. She couldn't see. Someone had to make a decision.
"Natsu , let go of my arms," she said gently. She waited a beat.
"Okay," he murmured and released her, uncharacteristically passive. But he only stepped back a fraction, just enough so that his leg was no longer between hers. Their forms still teetered on the edge of touching, and she could not only hear his quick, shallow breathing but feel it.
She inhaled to speak again, and that was when he took her face in his hands and kissed her.
He could not escape the temptation of it. She was his soul mate. Personality disorder or whatever but this fierce and stubborn Lucy was making him excited and curious for unknown adventures. He liked her everything. Even her sickness and sins were his holy water.
Lucy intended words became an unarticulated noise buried under Natsu's assualt. The wall was hard and flat behind her but his hands were cradling her cheeks, her neck. It made no difference if her eyes were open or closed because in the darkness all she had to sense was touch. Natsu's touch was new and awkward, but not still held the familiar terms.
It was her first real kiss, and like the kiss-that-wasn't-a-kiss this too was in the dark, but a much smaller dark with no where to go but closer in. The contact was strange and wet and it wasn't bad, it wasn't bad at all. It was breathtaking.
Natsu's lips separated from hers, and he stepped back. His hands lingered for a moment longer on the curve of her jaw before they too fell away.
Her first thought was Did I do something wrong, because Natsu wasn't explaining and once again they were just two people alone together. In front of her she could hear heavy breathing that matched her own. Nervousness, confusion, and excitement hammered Lucy's heart so loudly into her ribcage she thought it might break her chest. Wouldn't that be an awful sight after kissing someone? But she couldn't see anyway, and neither could Natsu , oh celestial great spirits, all this silence was killing her.
"Why did you...do that?"
"I don't know." He sounded young, honest—and strangely, shaken. "It was an impulse." he regrets taking advantage of her. She wasn't herself. His innocent Lucy isn't here. But he could not control and gave in the temptation.
She believed him, if only because that sounded nothing like the fearsome villain she thought she knew. He was her even before they were born. Their story is written by stars.
"That was my first real kiss," she offered, even she felt like deep inside she knew every inch of his body like a sacred book. His breath, touch engrave in her heart since long ago.
Lucy knew she would have to wait for him to remember everything. It was what she wanted forever and ever.
"Was it?" he sounded distracted, and she wondered what could possibly be distracting him here. How could Natsu even be distracted, after what had just occurred? It was all she could think about. It was all she wanted to talk about.
Natsu was beyond concerned. He knew Lucy was not herself. He would find out later. But he stole her first kiss and she won't remember it. It was irritating.
"How many times have you kissed someone?"
Her question caught him by surprise, and he answered truthfully, "Just the once and that's you."
"Oh." The silence slipped further into awkwardness. Lucy wasn't sure exactly why, but it made her even more nervous to know she was his first kiss. But both could not deny the familiarity like they have tasted each other lips trillions of time.
What is this feeling??
"I just sort of thought..." she began. "I mean..."—shut up shut up shut up— "You seemed...pretty confident."
"I'm...sorry. If I startled you."
Lucy wished she had a pillow to scream into.
"You don't have to—look, would you just light a flame for a second? Please, just, make some fire so I can talk to you."
Lucy desperately wants to remember his face. Before they would forget everything.
"No." He was hiding, that's what Natsu was doing. He had kissed her, he had really kissed her and she couldn't believe it but now he was hiding. In the darkness of a closet that was already keeping him safe from someone else. The thought struck her that Prince of the Fire Dragon lord Natsu Dragneel was hiding from girls a lot these days.
In the tense blackness of the closet, Lucy swallowed a giggle. And then another.
"What was that?"
Suddenly it all seemed so incredibly hilarious, and she couldn't hold back.
He hissed, "Are you laughing at me? Stop laughing!"
Natsu was confused enough he diddidn't like this bold Lucy making fun of him. He felt helpless in front of her. This was unknown feeling for him. He was type who always dominate and rules other but right now it was other way around.
Lucy truly tried to stop but the giggles bubbled up and out of her in a fountain of misplaced emotion. All the fear of getting caught, all the loneliness of waiting in the dark, all the tension and the bickering and the crazy butterflies in her chest flowed together into onslaught of laughter.
She, Lucy , was in a closet with most ferocious and fearful Price Natsu Dragneel and still she was making him awkward, and no matter how hard she tried she couldn't stop laughing about it.
"Be quiet!" Natsu grabbed her with one hand and covered her laughing mouth with the other. "You're going to call attention to us if you don't shut up!"
He can hear and smell the royal guards outside. He couldn't risk her identity. Even she is acting like a basket case. He wants his innocent and calm Lucy back.
Lucy nodded, and tried to tell him that she thought she was okay now, but his hand muffled her words.
"Do you promise to be quiet?" he demanded. She nodded again. "Okay," he said, and lowered his hand from her face. She hastily grabbed it; it was now or never, before she thought too hard.
"What is—" Lucy finished Natsu's sentence for him by pushing the fire lord back against the closet door and pulling his head down with her fingers tangled in his silky wild pink hairs for their second kiss.
It was like the first but more fun, because now he was against the wall and Lucy hands were fisting in his wild disheveled hair as she tried to press herself closer to him. They were perfectly molded for each other not a inch of space between them even air can't pass between them.
'What the fuckin hell? Did she forced a kiss on me?' Natsu's mind was buzzing and he had lost the ability to think straight anymore.
She felt a rush as Natsu , slow on the uptake but not obtuse, found his hands clutching her hips and her tongue in his mouth. Grabbing Lucy even closer he spun them a quarter turn until the door was to one side and the back of the closet to the other. The box's width was narrower than its depth and now they had even less space to move if they should want to separate.
That was okay with Lucy, seeing as she didn't want to. Sometime back around their seventh kiss—by now she'd stopped trying to decide what determined the end or the beginning of kissing— she had come to the definite conclusion that arguing to kill time was overrated, but kissing… kissing was fun.
Kissing Natsu was fun. It was like a water in the desert. She felt like each kiss wasn't enough to quench her thirst for him. She couldn't point the fact why she wasn't ready to leave him. And want to keep torture him with sweet kisses.
Actually this was pretty stupid and dangerous but none of that seemed to bother her right now. She felt deep down she wasn't herself. But she was beyond the limits to use her brain.
The prince pulled back his head, gasping for breath. "Lu-Luce." He made noises like he was getting ready to say something. His lips bruised and swollen from her assault. He was a hot mess in her arms.
"Natsu , you had your chance to talk." She ran her hands down his chest and started kissing him again, feeling bold and grown up. "You wasted it."
Too late Lucy remembered that taunting arrogant Fire wizard was a bad idea. No sooner had the snide words left her mouth than Natsu pushed their intertwined bodies and while still kissing her away from his wall and toward the opposite one, trapping her like she had just trapped him.
Fingers ran up and down her sides, daring to brush her chest but never stopping there. Her own hands wound their way around his neck again. Pulling him harshly to herself. She wanted to feel his skin every inch of it. Natsu had nice, broad shoulders. Leaner than he looked with his armor on, his chiseled chest and rock hard abs as she traced his body.
Before he could proceed more. Suddenly he felt her body became loose as he caught her in his arms. She had fainted.
"Lucy.. Luce?" he tried to call her but she couldn't respond.
Suddenly the door was flung open Mira was standing there.
"Prince you are safe to go. Queen Mavis was-" she paused when she saw the distress and disheveled Natsu and fainted Lucy in his arms.
"Call Porlyusica. And remember Zeref and Mavis should not find out. Send Wendy and Levy. I'll be in my room."
Natsu carrying Lucy in his arms as he prayed to Sun and Moon to keep her safe.
X_X
He was pacing around it's been more than hour Porlyusica was checking Lucy. He was stressed and ticking time bomb. His lips still swollen from her kisses. But his heart filled with worries.
"Salamander you are fucking idiot." Gajeel entered with serious face.
"Why you.." Natsu growled but he paused when he saw crying Levy next to him.
"You should have been more careful." Gajeel was beyond furious.
"What I did metalhead. Care to explain?" he demanded.
"I don't know much this is rare chance but I think you and bunny girl are pair of tears."
Natsu frozen on his spot as he glanced at Gajeel. His face didn't show any hilarity. He was serious.
"But that story is just thousand years old folklore a myth. Story passing down to one generation to another."
"Then what about her smell all over you and anybody can guess you guys were literally doing it there."
Natsu growled possessively as he heard Gajeel words.
"Sorry my lord." Gajeel was taken back by his ferocious growl. It was the great cruel dragon lord.
"A pair of tears are a part of same soul which are bound to find each other in every life. Even they don't realise they will find each other." Levy replied.
"But Lucy seems to remember something which I don't" Natsu said in crack voice.
"She was the memory of her past life. When you guys were together. Something bad must have happened with you guys that's why she snapped. But I still need to find out more. But rest assured your Lucy is safe and sound."
Suddenly Porlyusica came outside.
" Greetings my prince. The girl has woken up and she looks scared so I suggest you should not go there. It can make the matter worse."Porlyusica bowed and left.
" Levy you should check on her." Natsu said as Gajeel nodded in agreement.
Levy bit her lips. She was feeling bad for Natsu. But they were helpless.
X_X
Lucy was scared. Where was she? Whose room is this? She was anxious when she heard the voice of footsteps. It was Levy.
" Levy chan" she tried to stand but fell down. Why she felt tired. Last thing she remembered she was in closet then everything black out.
"You are ok Lu chan?" Levy asked.
"Yeah but my head is pounding and I feel exhausted." Lucy felt her heart sped up suddenly. She looked at the mirror in front of her. She stood in her trance as she walked closer to the mirror. Her reflection looking back into her eyes.
She put her hand on the surface of the mirror as she felt tears roll down her cheeks. She had no idea why she was crying.
Unknown to her this wasn't normal mirror it was see through for safety. Natsu was standing other side of the mirror he could see Lucy but she could not see him. When she put her hand on the mirror. He put his palm in the exact place from the other side but the wall of mirror between them. As tears fell from his eyes. She was so close to him yet so far.
And what hurts him. She can feel his emotions but could not understand. As she was crying along with him.
