HMSH 10~Meet the Dragons~
First of all sorry for the lateness. With the end of the school year you am expect after updates (hopefully). Second of all I'm sorry for all the OCs an OOCness. They are necessary for the story to flow. With that done on with the story!
Queen's p.o.v
"Impossible!"
Heads turn my way as I descend the platform. "Dear you can't actually believe her. She must be lying. You yourself saw her body being burned! If she speaks true surely she'd have more evidence than a mark that can be faked." I see the seed of doubt growing in his mind. 'Yes make him doubt her, I didn't share my husband 20 years ago and I'm not about to start now.'
To everyone's surprise Lucy just stood there shrugging. "Meh I don't really care." Looks are thrown all around the room. "I never wanted to be acknowledged anyways I'm perfectly happy right now. And since I could be a fake that means there's no reason to send any more mercenaries is there? I am after all a simple fake." She drags out her last word leaving everyone to guess at her words. Of course us royals, with the exclusion of the king, know that the message is being meant for us. 'Does she really refuses the crown? How can I trust her?' Fortunately for us the twins answers.
"Hmm now that I look at you properly we might have been mistaken who you are. We must have confused you with someone else. Sorry." Said the youngest Loki. "Rest assured, you nor your friends will be targeted anymore. Assuming of course you are not who we're looking for." Igneus the older twin responds of his own accord narrowing his eyes at the girl.
"Alright but before I can leave I'd like my friends to re-unite with their parents as its only fair." 'She speaks with such a false smile.' I inwardly snarl at her. "Go ahead and may your journey back be peaceful." Rhine throws a fake smile of her own. "Of course! And may we all fulfill our promises." With that she turns and exits the hall.
"If you'll excuse me MiLord I'll retire for now." I walk out of the room only stopping at the door. "Don't pay her anymind dear. She must have used that excuse simply to gain a faster viewing. Lucille is dead and may her soul rest in peace." With that I leave. 'While she still breathes. This is but a minor step back. Soon you'll forget about her and focus on me and your true family.'
Rogue's p.o.v
As we follow Lucy out the throne room I move to grab her arm and drag her to a stop. "Can I help you Rogue?" "What the hell was all that? It didn't explain a single thing." *sigh* "I thought you might say that. Give me a few more hours and I swear I'll explain everything you want to know. For know just... enjoy." As we turn a another corner a group of people are walking towards us, one of them a woman with sky blue hair and dress, is practically running. When I take another sniff I realize they're not really humans but dragons in their humanoids forms. The blue dragon slayer runs from us to meet the running woman half way.
"Grandeeney!" The two woman envelop the other into a right embrace and you'd have to be blind to not see the happiness rolling of them. "Wendy! My how much you've grown!" 'Grandeeney comments. "I've missed you!" Wendy says back. "I've missed you too baby." As the other people from both group approach more calls ring out. "Igneel!" Natsu gives his dad a man hug. (A/N: Idk why but I find it hilarious XD)
"Natsu! The flaming trouble maker! It's so good to see you!" Says a man with flaming red hair, piercing black eyes. He's wearing a black vest with flames patterns seen into it and a red t-shirt underneath. His legs are hidden behind some ripped jeans and black (shoes) cover his feet. 'So this is Dragneel's father huh?' I slightly turn to see Sting is taking Igneel in.
I see another man with the same style as Gajeel glaring at said person. "Keh so you wanted to see me you overgrown lizard?" "Keh! Who'd want to see a stupid brat like you huh!" "Stupid? I'll show you stupid when I beat your ass!" "Bring it on you stupid Gaki!" They start throwing punches at each other and I just sweatdrop like everyone else watching.
I feel Lucy approaching me so I turn to her. "I know I'm not your favorite person right now." 'Lies you'll always be my favorite.' "And I know I owe you a huge explanation. But please please come with me? I need to show you and Sting something. I'll understand if you don't want to hear me out but please at least meet these people!" I just nod and she smiles that shy smile of hers. 'Gods how I've missed you Lucy.'
"So who are you introducing us to Heartfilia?" I see the way she flinches when Sting calls her by her last name instead of one of our nicknames for her. 'Hmhp just because I sort of forgave you doesn't mean Sting truly did.' "J-just someone I'd thought you'd like to see again." I narrow my eyes. "Who?" "Skiadrum and Weisslogia." She murmurs under her breath. "That's not possible they're dead." I answer automatically. 'I'd know I'd killed one of them.' "Just because their presence is here it doesn't mean they're alive. You should know than better than anyone Lucy." She looks like she's been slapped hearing Sting's words. 'So hasn't completely forgiven her.' Anger radiates from her. "They are alive goddamit and if you don't want to believe me then so be it." She snarls at us. "Why should we believe you? After all you lied about your true identity for a month." I snap back. "Because we're standing right here Rouge."
