This is it. The origin story everyone's been waiting for. The question that has been asked countless times (Not really, well no, not at all). The secret to the reason why the character we hate the most, (in my story) is the way she is. To uncover this secret, (we'll have to split this chapter into two parts) first, we have to take a trip backwards to 2 and a half years ago. Back when Lisanna and her older siblings had moved to France due to Mira's modeling success.
"Il n'y a pas plus sourd que celui qui ne veut pas entendre" (No one is as deaf as the one who does not want to listen)
"Hello? Wii wii Madame... wi... yeah, today yes ma'am my siblings and I are leaving at 1... Alright... okay... and again, thank you so much!"
Briskly, Mira rushed up the creaky, wooden, stairs to get the last two things left in the house: her suitcase and her siblings. "Elfman? Lisanna?" She walked straight down the hall to her old bedroom. Of course this, was her old bedroom, now, it was just an empty space with four walls.
"C'mon guys," she walked over and embraced both her younger siblings.
"I'm gonna miss this place big sis." Elfman looked down at her with glossy eyes.
"Me too guys." She rubbed his and Lisanna's backs. "Me too."
And so, off they went. The three Strauss siblings trotted out of their now empty house, the "for sale" sign in their front lawn, taunting their minds as they entered the taxi and made their way to the airport.
And farther away from home.
As the three teenagers got up and headed to their boarding gates, they turned around to see all their friends waving them off.
The thunder tribe waved goodbye and Elfman tearfully waved back.
"Goodbye Ever!" He called with snot dribbling down his nose and tears dripping down his cheeks. "Make sure you never forget me!"
Suddenly, tears began to dot the corner of her eyes and she shouted back, "Elfman, you idiot! I promise!"
Then he turned and screamed loud enough for the whole airport to hear.
"Also make sure, you stay, A MAN!"
Evergreen's veins began to throb, and she threw her prized hand fan straight at his cranium. "For the last time, you oversized muscle head, I am not a man!"
Mirajane and Laxus held each other's gazes for a while. He stared longingly at her big blue eyes, and she stared sadly at his.
Then suddenly, she smiled.
He smiled too, then nodded in understanding.
Lisanna clutched her cellphone in her hands, desperately scanning the crowd of teary-eyed smiling faces, for his smiling face. She saw Juvia crying as she waved goodbye, yet a smile was on her face, nonetheless.
Lisanna blew a kiss in her best friend's direction, then continued looking.
Oh where was Natsu?
The loud speaker made the final warning call for passengers to board the plane to France.
"Come on Lisanna," her sister said. "Time to go."
Lisanna felt her heart break.
Natsu didn't bother to come see her off.
Did that mean he didn't feel the same way?
Yes, perhaps the day before one goes away forever, is not the best time to tell your longtime crush, and best friend since forever, that you love him.
But even if he didn't feel the same, he still should've come. They had been best friends since they were in grade school, and now she's leaving forever.
Didn't he even care about that?
A bunch of people in the airport waiting area got up and made their way over to the boarding gate and so did Mira and Elfman. Lisanna scanned the crowd one last time, hoping to at least see a glimpse of his spiky pink hair to remember him bye.
But to no avail.
Reluctantly, Lisanna turned around.
And started moving on.
About 25 minutes later, after the gang watched the Strauss plane take off, out of nowhere, a very worn out Natsu accidentally bumps into Gray.
"Is she here?! Where is she? Don't tell me I missed her!"
Gray merely pointed wordlessly at the boarding gate the Strauss' had just entered.
"No..." Natsu said, as he fell straight to his knees.
"Yes." Gray replied as he shook his head in disappointment and walked away from his friend.
Juvia followed him, but instead shot the pinkette a deadly glare. "You should've seen her face," Juvia spat. "She was so crestfallen when you didn't show."
One by one, all his friends did the same thing. Walk by him and shake their heads in disappointment or glare at him in anger.
Evergreen stuck her nose in the air and snuffed him.
Laxus simply told him he "messed up".
Erza threatened to punch him but decided not to, and did the worst thing to Natsu's psyche.
Sigh, then shake her head too, but not in disappointment, but in a way, as if she had finally given up on him.
When she had left the airport, Natsu stayed in his crouched position on the floor, clutching the red rose he had brought for Lisanna in frustration and sadness.
"I'm sorry Lisanna..." he whispered.
The next day, after the Strauss family had settled into their new home and recovered from a long flight.
Paris France.
A beautiful city, it can be defined as many different things, to many different people. Some say, it's the City of Lights because of its grand illumination display during the nights. Others, would call it, the City of Dreams, a place, where dreams do come true. But its most common name, is the City of Love.
Can the Strauss siblings find love too?
Or will their hearts forever be tied to their Magnolia lovers?
"Oh my Mavis." Lisanna said, taking in the scenery of the family's new townhouse apartment. "This place is beautiful."
"Breathtaking." Mira chimed in. Stepping inside the wide spaced area. It was grand and well, semi-luxurious, complete with a large bay window with a view of Paris and the Eiffel tower, a real life fireplace facing a long, leather U-shaped couch and right below a 52" flat screen TV. If you walked into the kitchen you would see something that looked like it came straight out of a magazine. Plus, it had a room, just for it's indoor hot tub that came with L.E.D light show and dancing waters.
"Manly..." Elfman whispered, and his two sisters turned around to glare daggers at him. He simply raised his arms in defense and smiled nervously. "What?"
Lisanna ran straight into the middle of the lounge room and spun around. Excitement and wonder filled her veins. She was ready for this new Paris life. She was ready for a new adventure.
After taking a good look at their surroundings Mira ran straight to the lounge room, with her hands covering her mouth and tears brimming her eyes. "I have to call Miss Rouge..." She cried and took out her cellphone.
"I'm starving..." Elfman trailed off as he made his way too the kitchen, his mouth salivating.
Lisanna continued to stare out the window. "I can't wait to see the Paris Opera House, and the Catacombs, and the Love..."
"It's pronounced, the Louvre."
The three siblings turned their heads towards the door.
There was a boy standing in the doorway with ruffled brown hair, dark brown eyes, and big wire-trimmed glasses, he was wearing a tuxedo, and holding a bunch of luggage. He blushed under the looks that the family of three gave him and smiled sheepishly. "Uh... hi."
"So Andrew tell us more about yourself." Mira said, patting the empty spot on the couch next to her gesturing to Andrew. Lisanna rolled her eyes. She almost felt sorry for the poor boy, her sister could be very probing.
The boy introduced himself as Andrew. Apparently he was the bell boy that was bringing their luggage. Lisanna didn't like him though, she still annoyed at how he so bluntly corrected her at the door. Smart ass.
"Elf- ni- Chan !" Lisanna cried. Then her brother appeared, with his mouth full of food to wordlessly haul away everyone's luggage. When he came back he told Andrew, "Thanks bell boy," and ran back to his temporary sanctuary in the fridge.
Andrew looked at Mira. "Well for starters, I'm not a bell boy."
The future model was slighted. "You're not?" She cried.
"You're not?!" Lisanna screamed. She stalked over to him and looked him dead in the eye. "Then why in the hell were you carrying all our stuff?!"
"Because..." He hopped over the couch to be face to face with the youngest Strauss sibling. However he was way too close for her liking and she took a step backwards.
"As soon as you guys came to the building, your eyes went as big as saucers, and when I came over to welcome you to the building the big one just threw his stuff at me," He gestured to Elfman. "And you two followed suit."
The two sisters craned their necks to glare at their brother still gorging himself in the kitchen.
"What?" He said again, but more cluelessly this time.
After talking with Mira for several hours, Mira found out that he was far from a bell boy, and that his parents were actually the owners of the building. That also meant not only were his parents worth millions, he was worth millions too. During the entire conversation with Mira, Andrew kept craning his neck to the side, and stealing quick glances of Lisanna. Whenever she'd catch him though, she'd give him the nastiest look, then turn her head back to her telescope and continued to look out the bay window.
By the end of the talk it was almost nightfall, and Mira, being the kind and wonderful person she is, invited Andrew to stay for dinner.
The sound of silverware clanking on glass was the only thing that could be heard through the dining hall as the Strauss siblings ate their first dinner in Paris together- with their new friend of course.
"So you take Chinese, Japanese and Mandarin speaking classes too?" Mirajane exclaimed, delightfully. "Andrew!"
With some chewed veal cheek in his mouth he spit out a confused "What?"
"That's amazing!" Mira exclaimed.
"You're a real man." Elfman exclaimed.
Lisanna rolled her eyes in exasperation. "Excuse me, but are we done kissing his butt now?" She slammed her silverware on the table, getting everyone's attention.
Mirajane gasped, appalled. "Lisanna! This is our guest, and as such you will treat him with respect!"
She scoffed. "Why should I? It's not as if he's treated anyone with respect since he got here!" When she made that statement she looked directly into his eyes, with a deadly glare. He stared back, his eyes full of broken-heartedness. After a while, she abruptly got out of her seat and headed up the stairs to her room.
"Lisanna!" Mira called, getting up to go after her. "If this is about him correcting you from earlier, then that is so petty Lisanna-"
"No! This isn't about that. This is about him, getting all this high praise from you guys, when he's actually done nothing but present himself as being our landlord's son!"
Mira called after her sister one more time, but all she got was the sound of a door slamming in response. Utter silence choked the dining room. It was deafening.
"Andrew, I'm sorry about how my sister's behaving." Mira muttered softly. "I don't know why-"
"She hates me so much?" Andrew offered.
"I was going say why she's acting this way." She paused. "But yeah pretty much."
"You're free to leave if you want to." The model stood up politely and pushed the chair in behind her. "Excuse me," she said softly as she raced up the stairs after her sister, leaving Elfman alone with Andrew.
"So..." Elfman said trying to start a conversation. "Nice weather you have around here." He said as he daintily took his napkin and dabbed the food at his lips as his sister had just done moments before. "It's very manly."
"What was that!" Mira sharply called out as the door closed behind her. She had come in the room expecting a hurricane to fight, but what she found was Lisanna broken down on the bed, crying, clutching a picture of what could only look like her and Natsu together.
"Oh Lisanna," the snowy hair girl cried as she wasted no time to envelope her sister in a motherly embrace. "I know its hard. I know it is."
"Why couldn't he just come to the airport?" She said in between raking sobs. "Why couldn't he just come show his face to me one more time? Even if he didn't love me..." And that statement brought forth another fresh batch of tears from the future veterinarian. "Am I really that repulsive?"
"Lisanna, if Natsu doesn't love you back, then that's seriously his loss. You're beautiful, you're not repulsive." She said referencing her previous statement. "And besides, best friends, are usually the foundation for a great relationships."
"Lizzy, in life you're going to have to have heartbreak." She continued. "It's something most people experience, at least once. What you need to do, is wipe your tears away. Go on, wipe them, stand up, look that boy in the face and say 'I'm over you! You're just loosing out!'"
Lisanna couldn't help but let out a giggle at her big sister's oddities.
"Who knows hun?" Mira whispered, wiping a lock of hair from Lisanna's face. "The guy who's really right for you might just come knocking on your door."
Just then the two heard some knocks on the door. "Hi." It was Andrew. "Is Lisanna still in there? I'd like to tell her something." His voice was shaky and distraught.
Lisanna, slowly unraveled herself from her sisters embrace and stalked over to the door - quietly. She moved silently enough so that she could understand what he was saying, but at the same time give him the impression that she didn't care enough to answer the door.
"I know you're not hearing me," Andrew finished. "But I'd like to say I'm sorry for earlier. I grew up here and I love all these places so much, that I find myself correcting people about it if they're wrong. Especially tourists."
Lisanna stopped breathing as she placed her ear on the door.
"Look, I know we got off to a rough start but I... I'd like to get the opportunity to know you better. You're siblings seem really nice, so I know you're a beautiful person - inside and out."
Lisanna's cheeks started to redden at his statement. Apparently he had to be blushing too, because he started blubbering and stuttering like an idiot.
"That's not what I meant! I meant, they seem really kind, but I wasn't saying you're beautiful or anything- not that you're not beautiful it's just-"
He continued stuttering on to himself until finally, he sighed and leaned against the door frame. "Who am I kidding? She's not even listening me anyway. I have to go-"
"Wait!" Lisanna found herself flinging the door open, and staring at Andrew's surprised face. Both of their cheeks looked like the color of hot peppers.
Mira watched the entire thing unfold in keen interest.
"Uh... hi." He said.
"I'm sorry about earlier Andrew." She leaned against the door frame showing her ditress. "It's just that I'm going through some stuff right now and..."
"It's okay," he smiled seemingly happy that she even acknowledged his existence in a non negative manner. "Really. Let's just be friends okay?" He said.
Lisanna watched as he smiled at her then walked away. Her heart literally felt as if it were about to beat right out of her chest.
Why was her body reacting like this?
-Time Skip-
"Yo Gray!" A boy called out, "Mind if I crashed here for a bit?"
The raven haired boy watched as Natsu nonchalantly invited himself inside his home and began foraging for food through his fridge. He watched with keen interest as the pinkette opened up a bottle of Vitamalt exited the kitchen and hopped over the couch to plop on the couch right next to him.
He looked at him, gave him a little hail, "What's up?" And began feverishly typing on his phone.
Gray was about to have a mental breakdown.
Now wait just a freaking minute.
It was the third day since school's reopening, and the last time Gray had seen Natsu was during summer, at the airport after Lisanna left. Now, Gray had kind of expected this sort of reaction from his best friend. His girl best friend left him forever, and he didn't get a chance to properly say goodbye. Of course Natsu was going to feel disappointed and probably hide his face from everyone for a while. He had disappointed all his friends, which has never happened before.
And his friends meant the world to him.
But for this little bastard to just waltz right into his home after disappearing for about three months...
"Gray who was that!" Gray's adopted brother called. Out came a shirtless Lyon from his bedroom an alarmed look on his face. "Oh, hey Natsu. Haven't seen you in a long time." He relaxed.
"Haven't see you in a long time, is correct." Gray roughly shoved the boy's legs off his couch and glared at him.
"Hey what's your problem man?!" Natsu exclaimed aggitated.
Gray gave him a dead panned expression.
Natsu mouthed the words, 'What?'
"The hell are you doing here man?!"
Natsu sighed and continued typing furiously in his phone.
"So you're not going to answer my question then?" Gray asked. He took the deadly silenced that followed his question as consent.
"You dissappear for three months, after the incident at the airport, and then you just show up again, without explanation (or apology)?"
Natsu absentmindedly let his tongue hang out the bottom of his mouth as he skillfully rolled his thumb up and down the touch-screen phone. Gray's face contorted in disgust.
"What the hell is so interesting on this phone?!" Gray said as he simultaneously snatched up Natsu's phone.
"You icy bastard, give that back!"
Gray wasn't fazed by his insults as he scrolled through the phone and gawked at the thousands upon thousands of phone numbers.
"What the..."
"Oh that? That's just a couple of chicks numbers I got over the summer. No big deal."
"No big deal... Natsu, you've gotten almost every female adolescent in Magnolia on this phone."
The salmon haired boy walked over to the darts board and began to throw. "You've got a point." He said. "I need to break up with one of my girlfriends, the phone is getting too full."
"Umm I'm sorry did you say girlfriendsss? As in, more than one?"
"I don't know," He said undecidedly stroking his chin. "I saw this really sexy eighth grader the other day. She's foreign but she totally digs me. I could get her on my couch if I wanted to."
Gray furrowed his eyebrows in disbelief. "Wait, what?"
"Yeah but, I saw this hot blonde at the bus stop today. I'm sure she's a college student, but she gave me her number anyways." He took out a piece of paper from his pocket and smiled. He read it. "I think her name was Fiona? But hot damn that baby got curves! I think I'm going go to with her."
Gray's face contorted into a look of confusion, disgust and a look that said 'are you serious right now, bro' all at once. It was like his friend was in speaking another language. "Um excuse me Natsu, but can you hear yourself? I mean seriously Natsu, you're talking like a totally different person."
"Sure Fiona's a knockout, but Simone's young and naive, she'll let me do anything if that means I'll stay."
Gray continued to listen to his friend, his bangs covering his eyes.
"This... this is all because of Lisanna. Isn't it?"
Natsu stopped his phone typing for a split second then went back to typing, much more furiously this time. Gray continued.
"It's because you like Lisanna... that you're acting like this. You're so asexual, and a big wuss, might I add, that when you started developing feelings for Lisanna, you kept pushing them back because you didn't want to ruin your friendship."
Gray positioned his body fully in the couch.
"So when she left, and you never got to admit your feelings," he continued. "You broke down. You think that she's out there in Paris, getting her French guys on, so you try to ease the pain by... by fooling around with all these other girls. Am I right?"
Natsu stopped typing. He put his phone back down and sat up to look at Gray. And for the first time since he's been here, Gray saw real sadness in Natsu's eyes.
"I was too late." His voice low and normal. "The day before her departure, the Strauss' held a private Lua on the beach to celebrate their last night in Magnolia. Each sibling was allowed to invite one person. Mira invited Laxus, and Elfman invited Evergreen. The rest of the Thunder legion just showed up because... where one of them go, all of them go, I guess?" Natsu's eyes shifted from sadness to determination. "And then she, invited me."
"I remember that evening better than I remember anything else in my life. She told me, she loved me and I didn't know what to think. I panicked. And in my flurry of confused emotions, I almost did something terrible and nearly kissed her."
Gray raised an eyebrow. "Wouldn't she have liked something like that?"
"No, not if I didn't mean it. This was my best friend, so I had to work carefully around her emotions. I told her I'd give her a response the next day. That was a huge mistake. I was under pressure, between the natural forces of my hormones and the inevitable dwindling of time, I couldn't figure out what I felt for her anymore. Was it love? Was it friendship? Even on the day of her departure I was still on the rocks. She said to make it easier, I didn't have to say a word. Just bring a rose. Red for yes, yellow for no."
Gray's eyes widened in shock at the revelation. "So that's why you brought that-"
"Yep." Natsu cut him off. "It was a crazy story actually, I initially purchased a single yellow rose from a florist vender. But as I was walking to the airport I realized I made a grave mistake - or at least I thought. I took a U-turn from my path to the airport to go exchange the flower color but then she had left already. I had to chase her down for god knows how long, only for her to not have any more of those roses. So I spent some more time, looking for a house or business with red rose bushes. When I finally found a house, I picked the flower, fell into the bush, got chased around by the guard dog and narrowly escaped."
"Geez man," Gray inerjected. "I would've given up and done the normal thing and just tell her instead."
Natsu shook his head. "No, it okay. It's Lisanna so it was worth it."
"Whatever."
"Lastly, it took like twenty or so minutes to convince airport security that I wasn't a terrorist of any kind and that I was here to see off a friend. Even then I still don't think they believed me, but they let me go."
"So that explains why you were late. And why you looked so god-awful."
"Yeah. After the incident, none of my friends would talk to me. I go to their houses, and their parents tell me they don't want to see me. I message them on Facebook or someone, and they don't reply or block me. Even you."
Gray looked down in momentary shame.
"So, with no one to talk to, and a major part of my life gone, all I had was time to think. I thought and I thought. And at first I thought I loved Lisanna. When I thought that, I started to become heartbroken. So, like you said, I started to take a sudden keen interest in the female gender."
"I knew it."
"But sometime around July, my feelings faded away. They dissipated."
"So... you didn't really love her?"
"No. I just thought I did. I love Lisanna... but I realized only like a best friend. Or a sister. I just can't see myself being physically attracted to her, or doing all those intimate things that couples do with her. I always see her as my buddy. That little girl I made mud cakes with in the forth grade. Nothing will change that."
"Alright," Gray readjusted his position on the couch once again. "So if you didn't love her, and you don't love her, what's with the sudden acting like a man whore?"
Natsu returned to his smug nonchalant posture. "I'm just irresistible to the babes. All of them."
Gray looked at his friend in disgust once again. Oh please. Don't make me laugh.
"Puberty certainly hit all of us differently now didn't it?" He muttered under his breath.
"What was that you icy popsicle?" Natsu threatened.
He coughed and talked at the same time. "Nothing but your ego. But anyway," he said in his normal voice. "There's just one more thing you need to do if you want full closure. You need to talk to Lisanna."
"You think I haven't tried that already, dumbass?" He was getting irritated again. "Lisanna doesn't have social media accounts so I can't reach her over the internet. And I certainly can't take my cellphone and call her from Paris. It wouldn't work, I mean, she's in another timezone for God's sake!"
"And I thought I was slow..." Gray pinched the bridge of his nose in frustration at his friend's lack of realization. "She has siblings, Ding-dong!" He waved his arms in exasperation. "Just Skype Mirajane!"
The sun rays beat down at the Maymount International School in Paris, France. Students watched eagerly as the seconds ticked by until the clock would change from '2:59pm' to '3:00pm'. When it did, the teachers dismissed their students, and kids began flooding out of the school. Lisanna decided to leave after the crowd, so that she wouldn't have to be jammed up by people if she didn't have to. A few new friends of Lisanna's decided to wait with her.
They all left school talking and smiling, every so often Lisanna would have another question about her previous life thrown at her. A question that she answered gladly.
Suddenly one of her friends started to poke her violently, and diverted her attention to her left.
And there was Andrew, staring at her, smirking and leaning up against a working helicopter!
"Andrew!" She cried shocked, yet happy. She was trying her best to keep the dust from the violent whirlwind the helicopter blades were generating from getting in her eyes, and raising her skirt.
Her friends waved goodbye as Andrew took her hand and walked her to the machine and opened the door for her, helping her inside.
Once the door was closed and they were both inside, Andrew signaled for the Pilot to take off.
"Andrew!" Lisanna cried smiling. "What is all this!?"
"I hope it isn't too much," Andrew asked modestly. "I wanted your first day at your new school to be perfect. So I asked my parents if I could burrow the helicopter so you could ride home in style. Maybe we could go visit some monuments. I could even show you the Louvre."
Lisanna took her hands and covered her mouth, trying to stop tears of joy from escaping. "Andrew you're so sweet, I could just kiss you!"
"Actually, a kiss would be appreciated, yes." Andrew joked patted his left cheek for her to kiss. Boy did he get the surprise of his life when she leaned over and actually kissed him. His cheeks burned the colour of scarlet afterwards.
After a few seconds of just staring at each other smiling, Lisanna pointed out the window. "Hey, isn't that the Eiffel Tower!"
Andrew turned around and laughed nervously happy for something to break his daze.
The duo hurriedly made their way up the stairs, laughing and speaking in French at the same time. Thanks to the little joy ride, Lisanna was way past her curfew time of getting home. And she knew all too well how Mira would react.
They finally made it to Lisanna's living quarters where she instantly whipped out the key to the door.
"You sure you'll be okay?" Andrew wondered. "I can cover for you, if you want."
"No that's okay." She looked at him. "Once I tell her I was with you she'll be fine."
"Okay then. But if anything goes wrong-"
"Andrew, I'll be fine. But thanks for worrying about me. And thanks. For today."
He flashed her a dorky smile. "You're welcome." And with that he raced down the stairs to get to his helicopter which was still running.
As Lisanna fooled around with her ring of keys to find the right key to open the door, she heard voices. And lots of them. She recognized her sister's.
"She's still out huh? She's probably with Andrew then."
As well as her brother.
"Yeah, Andrew is a real man!"
And then she heard a third voice that nearly brought tears to her eyes.
"Really? Who's Andrew?"
It was Natsu.
She started searching for her key more furiously now, hands trembling, blood rushing to her head. The ring of keys made a violent jiggling sound as she searched.
"Oh Andrew?" Mira asked getting ready to spill the beans. "Andrew's just this boy Lisanna likes, even though she won't admit it. And he likes her back too, he's just too shy to say so."
"Oh..."
Lisanna heard Natsu's voice, and she thought it sounded disappointed.
No...
"Yeah, Andrew, is a real MAN!"
No!
She finally got the right key, jammed it int the lock and slammed the door open.
"No!" She screamed. Mira and Elfman swung their heads in her direction. Natsu, whose face was on the screen from video chatting, simply tilted his head a little to the side.
"Lisanna!" Mira cried.
"I do not love Andrew!" She said. She stomped over to the computer and looked at Natsu in the face. "Natsu, you are the only one that I love! For now and forever and always! Nothing will change that. Andrew is nothing to me but a friend!"
After a brief silence enveloped the room, the girl heard another sound coming from the doorway.
"Lisanna?..."
It was Andrew, standing in the doorway, holding something of hers she might have left in the helicopter by mistake.
"Andrew..." Lisanna trailed off realizing she's made a grave mistake. His eyes were red and glossy, as if he were about to cry.
She got up to walk over to him, but as soon as she did, Andrew dropped whatever it was in his hand, and ran away.
"Andrew" Lisanna screamed form the doorway. "Andrew!"
To be continued... (What? I told you it was a two-parter, didn't I?)
