Levy POV

There have been too many funerals lately. There are the last of the Zeamace victims and then we buried Zeref next to Mavis. Then the healer, who was apparently was Zeref's dad, at the town where Natsu got him from. Lastly we buried Lu-chan. Not a single person there had dry eyes. Lucy made the guild so bright and I don't think she even knew it.

He grave was simple on a hillside right outside Magnolia. Natsu planted a rainbow sakura seedling near it because he knew how much she loved them. That was two days ago, it is still hard to believe that she is gone. How can she be? She was just healed right?

I start crying for the third time today, Gajeel pulls me to his chest and kisses my forehead.

"I know, Shrimp, I know." He whispers.

Natsu POV

I have gone to Lucy's grave each day since she was buried. I also keep going to her apartment to stay overnight. It smells like her and every single thing in there reminds me of her but I can't help but stay there.

I'm heading there from her grave now, I look over at the park. The Rainbow Sakura stands tall it is in the middle of blooming. Is it really time for the festival, wait, that should have been today. I suppose no one had it in them to plan anything since it has only been two days since we buried her.

My tears overflow yet again and I drop to my knees in the grass. The wind blows some petals from the Sakura around and onto the ground.

"Natsu..."

"Eh? Who's there?" I say through my tears.

"Natsu, don't cry for me..."

"LUCY? Where are you? are you okay? I thought you were dead?" I stand up quickly searching for the source of her voice, searching for her scent. I am willing to believe anything right now if it means that she is alive.

"Don't cry..."

As her voice disappears the petals settle and I am alone again.

"How do you expect me not to cry when you aren't here with me anymore?!" I yell at the empty space. I wipe my tears and whisper to Lucy, even though I know she isn't there. "But I won't since you don't like it."

~Skip 2 years~

Normal POV

In Magnolia Fairytail prepares for the Rainbow Sakura festival. Though it is not like it used to be. The festivities may be set up in the park under the beautiful trees but that is not where they start. The entire guild gathers on the side of a hill under a rather small Rainbow Sakura in memory of their dear friend that they lost two years ago. They each lay down a single flower and then march down to the park and celebrate to their heart's content knowing that their friend looks down on them rejoicing with them.

One man however stays at the grave a little longer speaking words that none but the person he wishes to be with him most might hear.

"Two years, huh? It seems like only last week I brought you to the Guild and you pulled me in unknowingly. You were always there for me and balanced me out." His salmon hair shadows his eye and the next words come out broken and chocked. "Well I'm unbalanced. I can't seem to find the path I was supposed to follow when you were here. I've tried but it's like it is pitch black and I am searching around but the light that lead me is gone and I won't be able to find my way. I need you, but you're gone. Why'd you have to leave Luce? I love you." The fire mage follows his fellow guildmates to the park.

~The next morning~

Natsu's POV

'I guess I need to go on a job.' I think as I head over to the request board. As I look around I keep passing over a low paying bandit request but something keeps bringing my eyes back to it. So I decide why not, I can just come back and do another one right after, it looks plenty easy.

"Mira! Imma tke this one." I say as I slam it down on the bar. She picks it up and reads it over.

"Okay, but are you sure? It seems a little easy." She says while doing the bit of paper work for the reqeust.

"I don' know, but something tells me I should do this one today." I say scratching the back of my head.

"Okay then. Be careful." She says, smiling and handing me back the paper.

"When am I not?" I say as i walk out of the guild. I can hear her sigh as I leave.

I run out to the train station and get a ticket for the town nearest to the location of the bandits base. When I get to the getting on the train part I start to rethink this transportation thing until I hear someone yell about being to slow and I realize their is a line behind me. I get on the train and find a compartment. Soon the train starts moving westward (I was listening to Amsterdam by Imagine Dragons so I had to use west.) and I feel the motion-sickness come up on my like a hurricane. It got much worse these last two years, I sigh before things go dark.

"Sir, um sir. Your stop is here. Please get up sir." I hear someone saying and I jump up.

"IT STOPPED! Thank you." And I book it off that evil contraption. I look around and I see the client, this town's mayor, waiting on a bench.

"Ah. You must be Natsu." He says, standing up as I walk over to him.

"That would seem to be the case." I say.

"The bandits camp out in the forest north of the town. They hang out in alleys and attack the citizens and travelers, not to mention what they do to the women. Please help us." He says.

"No problem. Leave it to me." I smile at him and head out towards the northern forest. No point in wasting time.

I have been searching in this forest for two hours. If only happy hadn't gone on that mission with Wendy and Carla.

"KYYYYYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!" I hear a scream, it sounds familiar. I start running, at any rate the scream will most likely lead me to the bandits.

I come up on a clearing and I see a bunch of bandits in a group, they seem to be surrounding somehing or someone. I slow down and listen to their conversation.

"Hahahahaha! (There Imoto) She's hot!" One of them says. So it is a someone, a she, and these guys don't have anything good planned. My mind flashes back to what the mayor said about what they do to women. I have to get this girl out of there.

"And we found her alone in the woods? Practically on our doorstep! Perfect!" says another.

"Hey girlie you wanna play?" I hear something like someone spitting after the question and then a smacking noise. "Wench! know your place!"

I think now is probably a good time to step out. So I do.

"Oi! Pick on someone your own size!" I say calling their atention over to me rather than the girl.

"Who on Earthland are you?" says one guy. "come on let's get this pig out of the way and get back to this lovely lady." His friends seem to agree and they all come at me. One wingslash of the fire dragon later and they are done.

I run over to the girl who is laying on the ground with her hands tied behind her back. All that I can make out is that she has blonde hair to her waist and is wearing a white dress down to her ankles. She is laying on her side facing away from me.

"Are you okay?" I say as I get closer.

"Eh?" I hear her say. I swear I recognize this girl's voice. "Of course you got rid of them, I mean you are you. By the way that was the bandit gang that I take you took the job to get rid of, might wanna call the council. Natsu."

"How did you know my name?" I say as I cut the binding on her hands.

"You have quite the reputation." She says as she turns around.

"Eh?!"

A/N: Hmmmm who is this Kinpatsu? hmm.. guess for me! Guess! Please review! give it to me straight! I don't mind!

Lucy's ghost: I am so happy this sadistic writer does not own Fairytail.

Me: Hmph! Sadistic? What would you mean by that?

Lucy's ghost: *raises eyebrow*

Me: Oh you mean the whole killing you off and umm.. not telling my friends stuff..

Lucy's ghost: Not to mention the cliffhangers you try to do.

Me: o-oh. Gomennasai.

Goodbye guys! See ya next chapter!
