But for some strange reason Natsu isn't acting like his usual self around Lucy making this very worrisome for me.
Lucy POV(in the halls of school/three weeks later):
Man, I can't believe Musica discovered the location of one of the crystal keys my mother mentioned to me when I was a child. Though it did trouble me, when we talked outside heading for my home.
Flashback:
We began to left the guild and I noticed that Musica sighed in relief. I noticed that his scent from earlier was different and he probably changed it so the dragon-slayers won't notice him. Since they have that heighten smell, he rather risk meeting one than becoming friends with them or noticing his scent since he is a crafty thief. Well was a crafty thief after meeting Haru, Elie and me which was the best moment for our life's to Elie and me that is. Musica always seemed like a brotherly figure we both always wanted and ended up having. He treated us fairly and usual had a friendly argument or brawl with Haru just like Frosty and Pinkie. Sighing with a smile, I look up at the sky and saw my friends sparkling brightly within the night sky.
"Well, someone seems to be in a happy mood," smiled Musica.
"It's been a while since I've been like this. I don't usually show this side of me to the people who live here," I muttered sadly.
"So it's your decision, I know you miss us back home, but think of the new friends you could have here, Lucille," grinned Musica happily as he patted her head.
"...but the thing is this place acts like the one at home except there's no Haru, Elie or Plue," I mumbled sadly as Musica's eyed me painfully. Knowing that I would respond this way he pulled me into a hug. I felt my tears burst and cried on his nice shirt only to be wrinkled and damped.
"Lucy, I know how much it hurts you, but it wasn't your fault that day. Please at least try for them and for us back home. If Julia was here she would have been pissed but sad to see you cry even Griff, Let, Alice, Ruby, and Belnika. I know so please Lucy," soothed Musica as he rubbed my back in reassurance. I know I can't stay like this, but ti just feels as if someone stabbed me in the heart. No! NO! Don't think that way, everyone is waiting for me to recover, but Haru... That day I cried for the longest I can remember hearing Musica calm my sorrowful heart. When I went home I felt my chest feel a little lighter and waved to Musica good-bye and safe on his travels. After that the sadness developed me and I locked myself in my room ignoring all the voices that try to calm me.
Back to her POV (Three weeks later):
Still in my thoughts I bumped into someone who apparently acted like it happen on accident. His stuff fell to the floor and I stared at him and he stared at me back. He had brown hair that went well with his green eyes, but his stared made me cautious of this supposed accident. He then realized his stuff was on the ground and acted like a simple-minded idiot. Jeez how bad is his acting.
"Oh I forgot about my books. Um...you're stepping on one of them," He glanced to me and I looked down to see my foot on his book. Sighing I moved my foot and handed his book to him.
"Any who sorry for bumping into you. The name's Jade Sande and you are?" asked Jade cheerful. Seriously who is he trying to fool.
"Lucy," I stated coldly to which he flinch at my voice.
"Well erm...Lucy it was nice meeting no bumping into oh you know," he rambled as he flee away. I still don't like this guy, but I felt myself shivering as if the cold season was coming in. I can't trust anyone but you guys right I thought of the gang back home.
"Lucy, what's up?" called Pinkie happily to which I stared at him coldly. I began heading to my first class and noticed him trying to keep up with my pace.
"Hey Luce don't be like that," he sighed as I glared at him for using that nickname.
"What did I say about using that particular nickname? Stop bothering me and go to your class already," I spoke harshly.
"Well there's no way I'm calling you Lu or ucy, unless you want me to call you Luigi," Pinkie answered casually as I grew irritated by his carefree attitude.
"How the hell did you come up with Luigi! Seriously leave me alone and go to class," I said angrily.
"Don't blame me for coming up with that. Why should I leave you alone if we are heading to the same class anyway," Pinkie stared at me intently. I mentally hit myself for not remembering this guy has almost the same class as me. I dashed to the classroom ignoring his calls and praying that idiot won't get a chance to talk to me at all.
Sometime later...(around her fifth period):
Looks like my pray failed since this whole time that idiot has been trying to talk to me. He would ask random questions, poke me from the back or side, pass a bunch of notes, and eat lunch beside me which his friends of Fairy Tail soon followed with Loki as the second in line. The only time I can relax is here in my fifth period with no distracts whats so ever. I sighed happily only to groan when the bell for class to end rang. Great another period with that that ugh...he's just so annoying, caring, stupid, stubborn and wait did I just compliment him. Isn't this pleasant Natsu is starting to get to me...Why the hell did I just call him by his name! It's Pinkie and that's that. I'm in school for three weeks and this guy is just making me want to sock him in the face. I quickly head for my sixth period only to be stopped by Blond of all people. Why are the most idiotic people here to bug the hell out of me?
"Well I haven't seen you around Blondie. By the looks of it, you look sexy as ever and cold-hearted as well,"flatter Sting as he made sure not to let me leave. I was trying to get to class so fast I didn't notice that I went the wrong way. Now I'm stuck with this dolt at the dead end, can you say Why? of all days! I took a step back feeling the wall on my back which was not a good sign since I can't use any of my magic. I wish I brought my whip today instead of giving it to Virgo for modifications.
"What's the matter? You look scared which is rare considering no one has seen your magic," grinned Sting as he kept closing in on me. Before I could Lucy kick him, he stepped on my foot which I keep myself from yelping in pain by gritting my teeth. Then he grabbed my balled-fists that were going to punch him in the face and held them against my side. He leaned into my face and smirked to which I glared at him.
"Well now that I have you cornered you should answer my questions or else who knows what I might do to a pretty thing like you. What kind of magic do you use," Sting spoke stern and serious as I try to avert his stare. Please Loki or Capricorn help! I'm scared please Haru..what am I thinking Haru isn't here to save me from this situation. I chuckled sadly as Sting narrowed his eyes in confusion which earn my wrists to be held tightly to where I muttered a curse.
"That's it... I guess I have no choice," he muttered to himself which I caught. He looked at me with a sneer and leaned his face closely within lip distance.
"You wouldn't dare," I warned but it was useless as he smirked and nodded. No may be I should have died so this would have never happened. Haru, Elie, and Plue smiling happy and alive, the zodiac keys living peacefully from those who would use their power and... I felt my tears began to brimming until a voice broke out surprising both of us.
"LLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!," called Natsu as he ran straight forward and punched Sting away from me. I watched as Sting flew back slamming into the wall and turned to see Pinkie in front of me glaring at Sting. This idiot came for me and just saved me. There's no way he would go out of his way to come save me from Sting's interrogation. He glanced at me with a soft concerned look which made me stop from ranting about this coincidence.
"Are you okay, Luce?" Pinkie asked gently which I wanted to start bawling out but composed myself from doing such an action.
"Yeah, I guess. Thanks Pinkie," I muttered as Pinkie smiled relieved I wasn't hurt. Sting stood up again and saw Natsu stand in front of me protectively which kept surprising me even more.
"Natsu, why did you interrupt us? We were just having a friendly chat and I wanted to know what her magic is. Aren't you curious as well," smiled Sting evilly which I grimaced as Natsu began to shook with anger.
"Shut the hell up! Friendly chat my ass and if Luce doesn't want to tell you what her magic is then get the fuck out," spoke Natsu harshly which I was impressed by not just his language but understanding my own reason to keeping my magic a secret.
"You really are dense, Natsu! What if she is the last remaining Celestial mage the guild masters are talking about, then one of us needs to make sure she is secured in a safe area from the upcoming evil that might come," yelled Sting angrily to where my eyes widen in surprise. The guilds at this school are looking for me and are trying to protect me, now that I think about it why am I not surprised. No wonder Loki kept suggesting that we attend this school only, not for himself but for me. We are so going to have to talk about this later.
"But she isn't because we smell no scent of keys on her, dumbass. So leave her alone and go back to your guild Saber," argued Natsu as he pulled me by my wrist and began walking away from Sting.
"Fine walk away with that blonde bimbo bitch," sneered Sting as Natsu froze in his tracks. I felt his hand loosen around my wrist and began to think something bad was about to happen. Natsu turned to Sting and gave the most death-threatening look I ever seen and it was even better than mine.
"Don' . . ," gritted Natsu through clenched teeth as Sting grinned evilly. Next thing I know a fight broke up between the two and I hid behind the walls to avoid debris and attacks. Their power was unbelievable and frightening as fire danced around and light appeared every so often. This all stopped when a voice yelled at the two heated dragon-slayers.
"ENOUGH YOU BRATS! STOP IT THIS INSTANT," roared Master Makarov was in this giant form and stomped on Pinkie and Blond. This tiny old geezer had such power and he return to his midget size. He sighed and looked at all the damage caused by these two.
"Natsu, Sting report to my office as for you Miss Heartfilla head onto class. I'll inform your teacher about this, so carry on," He ordered as I nodded and looked back to see him yelling at Pinkie who just got up. While walking to my class I stumble upon...
