Yo minna!

Gomene, I'm still pretty busy, but here is chapter 9!


Lucy POV

I woke up with a loud throbbing in my head. I felt entirely drained, but at least I know that Gray got the message.

"Ready, Lucy?" said Hibiki's twin.

"Why does Hibiki have a twin anyway?" I thought a loud.

"Because… shhhh! It's a secret!" he said.

"Whatever." I replied.

*cough *cough

"PUSH HER!" said the rough, lady's voice again.

Then, in a rush, everything came back to me, the only problem was the fact that now… I'm falling off a cliff… hmmm… not a nice way to end at all…

"LUCY!" I heard Gray's voice, but I had just collided with the ground below me and everything went red… and black.

Gray POV

I had just reached the cliff edge when I saw Lucy being pushed off a cliff. "LUCY!" I shouted, but it was too late.

I knelt to the ground and cried, how could they do that to 'my' Lucy? They treated her life as if it was worth nothing, they pushed her without emotion. I looked at the body of my wife, she had a blindfold around her eyes, her limbs were scattered on the ground, and her head was facing me. There was blood and tears coming through the blindfold. "LUCY!" I shouted, I was upset and afraid, the love of my life, had just died in front of me. If only I was faster, if only I didn't question our love, I'm such a fool Lucy! And because of that, you have died what should I do without you?

"Gray…" Natsu said beside me, there was sadness evident in his eyes.

I picked myself up and went back to the guild, I couldn't stay there, knowing that Lucy's body was in a scattered arrangement on the ground.

~~~~At the Guild (since the GMG had been called off) NORMAL POV~~~~

"Gray, where's Lucy?" Wakaba asked.

Then, there was silence, everyone who came back were all silent, they looked as if they had just seen the devil and what was worse, was the fact that Natsu and Laxus were carrying something… or someone.

The person was carried on a little hammock type thing and they were covered with a white piece of cloth. "What happened?" Master asked.

Then, at that exact moment, everyone who saw the scene, broke into tears, Gray was crying the most. Even the tough Gajeel and Laxus mourned for their fallen guild member.

Master walked over to the body and pulled back the cloth to reveal the poor and helpless looking Lucy. There was a gasp and many others broke into tears.

~~~~Mysterious POV~~~~

You're death will not be in vain, Luce.

~~~~~Gray POV~~~~~

I felt the life being sucked out of me, I had no real purpose in life now. What am I to do? Luce…

'REVENGE' was the only word being repeated in my head. They have to pay for what they did to her! I cannot let this slide, my wife was treated horribly, she was kidnapped, taunted and murdered! I will not accept this! I must avenge her death!

~~~~Mysterious POV~~~~

Gray has a lot of rage to be let out. Will this work as planned?

~~~~NORMAL POV~~~~

"Lu-chan!" Levy repeated again and again while crying into Gajeel's chest.

"Bunny girl, she was so nice, even though I tortured her she forgave my actions. She did not deserve to die this way." Gajeel said with a sad tone in his voice.

"Luce, you changed… you hid secrets from us… now you leave us behind… LUCE! PLEASE, COME BACK!" Natsu shouted with tears falling to the ground.

"Lushii!" Happy cried, "You gave me fish, you shouldn't have died!"

"Lucy was like a little sister to me… Losing her is like losing Lisanna all over again!" Mira cried.

"It is a man, to mourn for our fallen guild member!" Elfman shouted as the tears flowed down his cheeks.

"She was so gentle, so caring, so loving, she was my older sister." Wendy cried.

"Love rival! You showed me the way to opportunities instead of sticking with Gray. You don't deserve to die this way. Please, forgive me for whatever I did wrong to you before." Juvia said, she was so upset that she even used first person.

The whole guild mourned for a whole day. They couldn't believe that one of their closest, most cheerful member had just died and now her body lay there. The once cheerful guild, were all in mourning, unaware of the strange stares from around.

~~~~Strange POV (different to Mysterious POV)~~~~

I watched as they all cried for her, that certain blonde, she didn't deserve to die. All she ever wanted was to have a proper family, and even that was taken from her.

~~~~Lucy POV~~~~

Where am I? I'm in a void of some sort?

Did I really just… die?

"Luce!" Zeref-nii shouted.

"Zeref-nii!" I shouted, "I've missed you."

"Now is not the time for you to be a star! You have to go back!" Zeref yelled.

"But… I've missed you, Zeref-nii, can't you go back with me?" I asked with tears streaming down my face.

"But Luce, you don't belong here, not yet… not ever!" Zeref said.

"What? What do you mean? I can never be with you? Zeref-nii… you were the only one who truly understood me, if… if I can't be with you, then what is my purpose in living?" I asked.

"Luce, you will understand that over time. What you need to know now is that, Gray needs you. You have to be there for him, before he does some wrong doings that he will regret. Go now, Lucy, my beloved sister, I entrust you with the safety of Earthland!" Zeref said formally.

"Zeref-nii…" I couldn't finish my sentence, I was dumbstruck.

~~~~Gray POV~~~~

I began walking to the guild, it has been 5 days since Lucy's passing, I can't believe she's actually gone. I get drained every time I enter the guild. I don't even remember how I make it home, sometimes I sleep at the guild though. Oh, Lucy. You have struck me hard, if only I could tell you that now. Luce, you took my heart, smashed it, and reclaimed it, smashed it again, reclaimed it, smashed it...

"Ugh! Blugg, Brigg, Begul!" I said drunkly.

"Gray, you should go home." Mira said.

"You…" I said pointing a shaky finger at her, "you shouldn't tell… tell others… what to do! I… I am… the boss… the boss… the bo…" I fell asleep.

~~~~Normal POV~~~~

"I'll take him home if you want." said the new Fairy Tail member.

The new Fairy Tail member was called Red. She had long red hair that reached down to her waist, her eyes were a fluro pink and she always wore a cloak that was long and blood red.

"Thanks, Red. You've been taking him home for the past couple of days, we all show our thanks." Mira said.

"No problem, I do live next to his apartment. It's no hassle." Red said politely.

Red picked up her drunk guild mate and carried him home. She had his arm around her neck and her hand under his other arm to support him as she walked. "Why do you always get yourself this drunk Gray?" Red asked, "don't you know how worried I am?"

"No! -hic- Lucy… You know you're still so beautiful in my hallucinations as you were then -hic-. Ahh, Luce, I miss you! -hic- If you could only return to me, we would dance, play, skate -hic-, anything just for you, Luce. -hic- All because I love you, -hic- I would chase you to the end of the world just to be with you! -hic-" Gray said before falling unconscious again.

When Red finally reached Gray's apartment, she placed him on his bed, she helped him change and tucked him in. She also gave him a kiss on the forehead, there was so much passion in that one kiss.

Suddenly, Gray woke. "Luce?" he asked.

"Yes, Gray?" Red replied.

"I love you, you know that right?" Gray said.

"Yes, Gray! I love you too!" Red said.

Red took off her hood to reveal…
