Chapter 9: I Love you
Levy and Gray went inside her home and Lucy made them sat down the sofa. Lucy sat across Levy and Gray while she ordered her sons to go upstairs and get ready for day care.
"I… I am really sorry for not telling you anything Gray…" Lucy apologized leaning her back on the back rest of the sofa.
"It's alright… there you go again apologizing for something you didn't really mean to do. You have your reason, I know you bore that idiot's child" Gray replied sternly as she smiled sweetly at him.
"Thank you… I really don't want Rune and Rain to know who their father is. This past few years I became diligent in raising them to act more like me rather than to act more like their father. Rune is somehow taking his attitude to his father while Rain takes mine. I don't think Natsu is fatherly image for them" Lucy said taking the photograph of Rune and Rain when they were born which was located beside the sofa. She stared at the photo and reminisce that day.
"Then I guess you won't be coming back to fairy tail huh?" Levy asked her best friend who shook her head in response "I won't be, for awhile" She replied as Gray frowned a little. It was a moment of prosperity meeting her again but limitations are between them and he knows it. Not to bother to ask her to come back to fairy tail because he knew to himself that she would deny it immediately. He thought of a plan in a way of seeing her again.
"Lucy… If you're not coming back to fairy tail anytime soon can I always visit you and the kids regularly here?" Gray asked as she smiled again and nodded "Of course you can! You could always come here with Levy and the others too… But isn't that a bit tiring?" Lucy said. She was delighted in the fact that in a little way she would be able to spend time with her old friends again.
"Not for me"
"Me either" they both replied as she giggled lightly "So Lu-chan! How exactly did you stumbled here?" Levy asked "Well the first and second month I've been training at the east forest and the cold mountain of Hakobe until of course…" She trailed off. A flashback of that night occurred in her memory again those black hooded figures. Those who said that they will take her away when her child is at the right age. She snapped back to reality before Gray and Levy gets the funny idea that something bad happened. She wasn't sure whether to tell them or not.
"I… I went travelling then I found an apartment and job in here. Not long I gain friends and I decided to stay here. Sharra, from the café helped me when I gave birth. I was really shock that the nurse said I gave birth to a twins but happy at the same time" Lucy said securing her ponytail.
"Rune kind of looks like him" Gray said as Lucy nodded "He does, doesn't he?" Lucy said as he nodded
"how about lets go to the café" Lucy said calling out to her boys and leaved the house. Rain and Rune ran to the day care center and Lucy , Gray and Levy went to the café.
Lucy introduced Gray and Levy to her friends and Sharra who was very attracted to Gray was joyous that she got to hand shake him. Lucy and Levy laughed at the infatuation.
Gray and Levy decided to give a hand to the café and helped Lucy in serving the customers.
the evening came by quickly and Gray and Levy needed to go back. Gray give Lucy a friendly hug before boarding the train
The next week. Saturday
Gray visited her again carrying toys for Rune and books for Rain. The two seems to became closer to each other Lucy trusted Gray with Rune and Rain.
the two kids and Gray became very close because every weekends Gray would visit. Sometimes Levy and Wendy would come but not most of the times. The guild started asking questions about Gray's whereabouts every weekends but he would shrug it off and appears like he went to go somewhere important.
Lucy and Gray became friendlier. Gray didn't really talk to Natsu most of the times that he disbanded the group and decided to take missions alone. Erza was getting annoyed at Lisanna so she disbanded the group as well. Natsu and Lisanna are the only one who take missions together. Natsu was baffled sometimes because Lisanna was 100 times stronger than before.
Lucy gave a copy of her house key to Gray in case of Gray visited without her or something. Rain and Rune became very attached maybe because they grew up without the presence of their father and to them, Gray was like their father figure now and Rain and Rune became happier specially when Gray visits.
the three became very fond of each other. Lucy was happy for her kids and she can't help to think that Gray suits to be a father rather than Natsu.
a year has passed and the visitation continues.
Gray would say to the guild that he took missions.
The day of the twins birthday arrived, their 6th birthday.
Lucy, Gray, Levy and Wendy celebrated simply at her home. Rune and Rain ran over to hug Gray
"You two are big boys now!" Gray smiled ruffling both their hair. Rune laughed and Rain smiled
"I want to be strong like uncle Gray!" Rune said as Gray chuckled "I bet you can be ten times stronger than me" He said as Rune showed off his skimpy arms "No muscles yet though" Gray said as Rune frowned looking at himself. Suddenly Gray felt a tug on his shirt. He turned around and kneeled down and Rain place his arms around him "Thanks for always being here uncle Gray! You're the best!" The little guy said as he smiled in response "I'll always be here with you guys" Gray said as he broke apart and watch the little guy smile "Did you like your gift?" Gray asked as he nodded "I definitely love it! Mom won't buy that set of almanac. Thank you so much uncle Gray!" Rain said as Gray chuckled lightly "Just always study hard" He said as he stood up and went to sit at the dining hall…
That event made the twins fonder with Gray, treating him like a dad instead of their moms friend. Lucy is happy Rune stopped asking who their father is and content at their uncle Gray's weekend visitation.
Days flew by and easily months then another year…
One night Gray wasn't in Onibus town. He needs to settle down at the guild for awhile because a lot conclusions been made of his whereabouts every weekends.
Lucy dyed Rune's hair black. It was in her mind now that Rain and Rune are seven years old. She herself know that they are at the right age to think and make decisions on their own specially Rain.
it was late in the evening when Lucy had the strongest urge to walk and go outside. She knew something was wrong… Something was controlling her… It was the same strong, familiar force that same night. Her body started moving on its own.
In fleet seconds she was out of her house "Rain… Rune" her feet continued to drag her to a nearby forest, close to the train station.
Her eyes widened as a shadow figure violently ran around the forest. Then out of that her body weakened and back to its own self.
"Queen" The cold voice sounded so familiar. She looked up and saw the very same girl way back 7 years ago when she was still intact with training at the cold mountains of Hakobe. She knew this day would come.
"Queen, still remember me? I am Irina you're loyal follower. I know you still remember what we told you. We're looking out to you" She said slowly as Lucy rose up from the ground
"Why are you here!?" Lucy asked invigorated with fear and vengeance.
"zip it" Irina said her mysterious red eyes met hers "I know you're not that dumb our queen, you're coming with us didn't we tell you. You're destined to be our queen. You're mother was supposed to be, until she died because of you… You're our queen and you're coming with us" She said coldly her red lips curved into an evil, uncomfortable smile.
"No way! I will never come with you! I am not your queen. You're making a mistake!" Lucy spat out weakly as Irina pulled her hair.
"Dearest queen, your relevance and mind boggling words are stupendous. You're the chosen one you better be honoured instead of denying this. Well… whatever your decision, whatever your mind set into. You will come with us whether we do this the hard way" Irina said as she shook her head and Lucy placed her hands on her pocket.
"I'd rather die then leave my children behind! Open the gate of the lion! Leo!" She chanted taking Loki's key. A smug smoke formed and Irina started Looking for Lucy when the smoke subsided.
Irina saw that Lucy's spirit a.k.a. Loki. was carrying her and managed to fled the scene unharmed and fast. Irina became enraged at Lucy's cleverness
"What the hell are you standing for?! Go after them!" She ordered as the black hooded figures started moving on their own.
"We need to hurry Loki" Lucy said as the celestial spirit nodded "Are you really sure about your decision?" He asked rushing to the town and ran to her apartment "I am pretty sure that Irina would never give up on taking me" She said placing her feet on the ground "Guard in for awhile I am going upstairs!" She said as the celestial spirit mage nodded.
"Rune! Rain!" She yelled opening the door to their bedroom. Lucy was in panic and hysterical mode.
Rune and Rain woke up groggily. Lucy was smart and went to the cabinet and grabbed both their backpacks full of clothes and important stuffs. Lucy was panting as she went to her boys
she swallowed a huge lump on her throat "Rain… Rune! Listen to mommy! I know this is all a rush I can't deal with this if you don't cooperate with me… Mom will be away because of matters ok?" She started as the two boys realized something was very wrong and nodded nervously "Yes mom…" Rain said as Rune started tearing up "Mom… What's wrong?" He asked nervously as Lucy shook her head
"Rune and Rain… I want you to go to fairy tail, its mommy's guild long before .Its located in Fiore… I want you two to stay in there and asked for help. Uncle Gray is in there and Aunt Levy is there… I want you to be careful and make it out there carry your bags" She said as she slipped on the two backpacks to their bags "Those bag contains something important and Rain hold on to this never lose it and never ever leave this unattended" She said tears fells down her chocolate orbs and handed him Loki's celestial key.
"Be always careful take care of each other remember what I told and Mom Loves you so much that's why she's doing this… I want you safe *sobs* I want you to be brave while I am gone never dealt anything bad…. Mommy Loves you very much!" She said kissing her two crying son.
Loki went up the stairs.
"I can sense them they're coming really close! " Loki panicked as she nodded and hugged her son
a gust of strong wind invaded the place. Loki became alarmed and readied his hands
"Queen you shouldn't be coward" Irina said removing the roof of their house. Gust of Lush cold wind flew all over the place "Stop it please! Don't harm my children!" She yelled hugging her boys.
Loki tried to charge and attacked her but failed a lot of attempts
"Oh queen…" Irina said waving her pointing finger around that started to produce a strong negative magic atmosphere
"Darkness Billow!" Irina said pointing at the twins which sent them flying out the second floor "Rune! Rain! Loki now!" She cried harder and ordered her celestial spirit who hesitated at leaving her at first but rushed to the weakened twins "Mom…" The twins weakly said in unison.
"I'll come with you just don't hurt my children please I beg you not to hurt my children!" Lucy pleaded as Irina placed her feet on the ground and went to Lucy to caressed her frenzied cheek
The hooded figures tried to stop Loki but once he got the hold of the twins he vanished to thin air.
The cloaked figures was shocked at the sudden situation they used dark magic to destroy buildings in search attempt of Loki and the kids
"Stop" Irina whispered as the hooded figure stopped their doings and went to her side. Many buildings and landmarks was destroyed and the citizen was alarmed and went to the main plaza and gathered as a refugee.
"We have a queen" Irina said as she gestured a cloaked figure to come and revealed her head it was the same person way back 7 years ago the golden eyed girl with long blond hair
"Rezila, The potion" Irina said as the girl handed her a small bottle filled with a deep red liquid. She gestured Rezila to open Lucy's mouth.
She poured the viscous deep red liquid down her throat as her eyes changed and her entire body became different. Her eyes turned deep black and after she drank the liquid she rose entirely from the ground and dark powers took over her. She laughed evilly and she changed into an entire different person with one quick gulp. Her memory was erased and replaced of her knowing that she's the queen of this evil and dark society
"Queen" Irina said as the evil and cruel Lucy looked at her and met her eyes directly. Lucy laughed evilly again making Irina and Rezila smirk in response
"Take me back to my kingdom" The evil Lucy said as Irina smiled and casted her finger "Fore most abode the queen seeks thee take us back to the kingdom of new wrath" Irina casted as a red fog emerged at the whole area and with that every black and hooded figure, Irina, Rezila and Lucy disappeared.
