A/N: I have so much inspiration, my head could bust. It didn't. Yet.
The next morning, Lucy felt a million groans. Class could have been the worst. Finally lunch! "Levy!" She yelled. "Lu!" Levy yelled. "So, you wanna have lunch under the tree? Oh, and how about Gajeel?" Levy fiddled with the hem of her skirt. "He doesn't know." "Why haven't you confessed to him?" Lucy asked. "Why haven't you confessed to him?" Levy asked. "Gajeel would kill me if I did." Levy replied. "Poor Natsu." Levy sighed. "Why?" Lucy inquired. "If only you knew."
"I AM A VIRGIN!" Erza yelled. She threw her backpack at Jellal's face as Cana walked behind her all the while snickering. Random people said random responses. "She has it hard." "Poor Jellal." "What does virgin mean?" Ignoring everything that happened just now, Lucy beckoned a red faced Erza to the table. "I-" Lucy put a hand to her face. "For once in my life, I don't want to know." Zera and Cana sat next to her. Cana snickered again. "Told her a rumor, and she over reacted." Zera sighed. "Does anyone know where Mavis is?" She asked. "Band practice." Lucy replied.
"SO, Lucy? Where do you go to during the end of lunch?" Cana asked. "Please, tell me it's responsible." Erza said. "Or you be meeting someone you liiiiike!" Zera squealed. "Or training." Erza said. "Or other stuff." Cana smirked. "Only I know, and I won't tell anyone for the sake of Lucy."Levy said. Everyone sighed except Levy and Lucy obviously. And the people who weren't eavesdropping or in this conversation. "I guess privacy must be respected." Erza said. "Hey guys!" Mavis yelled. She sat next to Zera. "I decided to drop out the band a start one on by own." Everyone stared at her. "What?!"
(Flash back) "How are they going to be friends again?" Zeref asked. Mavis smirked. "We pretend to argue over some dumb thing and then both drop out and compete against each other. They'll realize how stupid they were and try to get the band back together." Zeref didn't like the idea. Mavis pulled out a porcelain disk that just happened to be in her dress right between her cleavage. She dropped it on purpose and then screamed "Oh no! I'm dropping out and Zeref is too and we're gonna compete against each other in different bands and other stuff!" Natsu, being the dense idiot he was said "Ok! Bye!" Mavis figured he'll come around. (Flash back end.)
Somewhere else in the room. Jellal sighed. Zeref sat next to him. "We all know you like her. We all know she likes you. Why not tell her?" Zeref asked. Jellal sighed again. "You know Zeref, I used to be a bad person like you. I used to do horrible things. That's why I've decided to fight crime and punish myself this life." Zeref gave him a pitiful look. "Which is why you live life to the fullest. Live the happiness to counter the sadness you've caused. Otherwise, you'd be just like before. Causing pain and misery." Jellal smiled for the first time in about forever.
Back to the room where the girls are sitting. Ultear popped up. "Sup girls!" Meredy followed behind. "Question: why did you tell me all those things?" Meredy smiled. "You and I used to be friends in another time." Mavis got up and then sat back down. "Another time traveler!" She yelled. "Huh." Ultear said. Everyone turned around to see Jellal walk up to Erza. Before he could open his mouth, Erza spoke. "I knew that was a lie." Before he spoke again Erza said "That's because you're a terrible liar." At this point, Jellal just gave up talking. "I accept and that's because what you're going to say next is extremely predictable." She gave him a hug. Erza pulled off her backpack from Jellal's hand afterwards, resulting in him falling over. She laughed. Jellal got up. Revenge⦠revenge is sweet. (A/N: lol!) Jellal smirked. "Look into you backpack." Erza opened the backpack and in a quick second Jellal shoved her head in. now Erza was mad. A mad Erza means suicide. Jellal was screaming a very feminine scream as he ran for his life. Lucy watched them run off into the distance as she turned around to face Levy.
"Tell him!" "No!" "Yes." "Never." "You can't escape fate, Levy."
Meanwhile, across the room. Gray was laughing at Natsu. "You mean, everyone just left your band?" Gray continued laughing. "I haven't seen Juvia anywhere near the cafeteria." Gray stopped laughing. "Juvia has swim practice. She has a life, you know?" Gajeel pointed at Natsu. "Pathetic. Everyone quit because of you." Loke came out. "How could you do this to Lucy? You evil little" Loke punched Natsu as hard as he could. Gray stopped laughing. "Long time no see Loke!" Loke kept punching Natsu. "You will suffer!" He yelled. "You don't know how many injuries she has. She thought of you as a brother and you abandoned her." "Loke, I think this has gone too far." Gray said with steel in his voice. "He doesn't even remember who she is!" Loke yelled. Gray looked shocked. "Natsu, is that true?" Even Gajeel looked confused. "You forgot bunny girl?" Natsu took a deep breath. "Look. I don't know who bunny girl is, but I do know Lucy is my enemy."
Everyone looked shocked. "Do you know her last name?" Gajeel asked. Mest ran to the table and put his hand on Natsu's head. "He really doesn't know." Another round of "What?!" "Do you know how she joined the school?" Natsu shook his head. "She was your best friend." Gray said flatly. Then all chaos broke loose. "How could she be my best friend? Ever?" "She was." "I don't even want to remember her." "How could you say that?" Natsu and Gray fought like they've never fought before that day. There was no Erza to stop them (because Erza was busy making Jellal's life hell), no reason to restrict them. It was a war for the sake of Lucy Heartfillia. Virgo came to stop the fighting. "Princess would not be happy if her friends got injured." She glared at Natsu and for the first time, her expressionless face showed some emotion. "That includes her former friends as well. She still believes in you." Virgo turned to Loke. "Brother, we must return to the celestial realm."
Cobra got on the mike and made an announcement. "Ladies and gentlemen, tonight will be the battle of the band. We only have individual singers this year. Their names are Natsu Dragneel, Zeref Dragneel, Lucy Heartfillia, Mavis Vermillion, and new comer Gray Fullbuster!" Gajeel turned around. "When did you join?" Gray smirked. "Since the music teacher can hear all, I thought 'I wanna join!' when Natsu said he doesn't want to remember Lucy."
Unknown P.O.V (I had to do it.)
And so, the raging war ensues. Who will win? Who will lose? I knew taking down the glue would collapse the team. Friends face each other on the field as enemies. Part one to rid Heartfillia is complete. Hopefully, that meddlesome time traveler does not interfere. "I know what you're planning, but this won't happen. It's a different present." The pink haired time traveler said. "Ah yes. Meredy, is it? We've got our goals in your original time. Why do you think you can stop us this time?" I asked. "I won't let you lay a finger on her!" Meredy screamed. "Why do you care about the girl so much anyways?"I asked. "Because she is my friend. In my original time, she was one of my best friends. I tried to protect her, but instead, she protected me with her life. I won't let her down." It looks to me like Meredy had a realization.
"You're the one that activated Zeref's curse!" I smiled. "Quite easy, except I didn't know his bonds for his friends and school would be this big. If I had known, I would have trained more. Thankfully, I wiped his memory clean of the fact that it was me." "You made Natsu forget about Lucy and sped up his yellow eyes activation." "Without the glue, everything falls apart." "And if your plan fails now, you would have, I fore say, a backup plan?" "Not saying that I would ever have to use it, it's so brilliant I doubt you could evade it. Only one flaw, the color of her soul. I'll bring Michelle into this." "Michelle would never listen to you." "Don't be too sure. The girl is quite easy to manipulate. She would do anything to see Lucy. I mean anything." "Her love for Lucy is strong. It's an unwavering bond." I flicked my wrist as I heard a scream.
Michelle in tube 1. Meredy in tube 2. Just three more until I reach the second floor. My plan is perfect. The only problem: I need that Heartfillia girl. Then the world is my oyster.
