"...When I heard the Natsu from our world say the same name again, it clicked and I remembered."

"...who?"

"He called for Lucy. He called for you."

Edolas World Part 2

Lucy POV

"He called for me? N-no way, you must've misheard."

"I didn't mishear anything; I forgot about that for a long time, but once I hear something I heard before, I'll remember. Lucy, aren't you the one Natsu has been looking for?"

"Ahaha... No..."

"Don't lie to me, Lucy."

"Yeah... But he's not looking for me anymore."

"He was looking before he lost his memories; he's still looking inside himself to find memories of you so he can come find you."

"Lisanna... I'm sorry..."

"No, Lucy, I'm sorry; I should've told Natsu about this before, but I was still hopeful..."

"Lisanna, he may have searched for me in the past, but when he lost his memories, he stopped. He told me that you were the one to bring him back up on his feet. He told me that you were there for him. I'm pretty sure you've become someone more special to him than I once was. I want you to stay with him."

"Lucy, I would love to... But that wouldn't be love. In the past, he's always thought of me as his close sister only. He still only sees me that way, so I want him to remember you, but I want to know your story with him first."

I hesitated, but ended up telling her the story about everything, excluding me gaining half of Natsu's magic.

"Wahhhh! Lucy, I'm so sorry!" Lisanna pulled me into a hug and cried.

"L-Lisanna? What are you apologizing for?"

"It's just too sad! While you were kidnapped and being tortured, I was trying to win Natsu's heart. I'm so sorry!"

I sweat dropped, "Lisanna, you didn't know about me back then. You wouldn't have known where I was."

"Lucy, now I'm more than determined to get you two together! Both of your pasts are too painful. You've loved each other since childhood and were separated! I will make it my priority to set you two back together!"

"Lisanna... You're a match-maker just like Mira..."

"Mira nee tried to put you two together too?! If we combine our match making powers, we can get Natsu to remember again!"

"Lisanna... Is this really okay?"

"Yes, you two are compatible and special to each other. I don't want to come in between two people with mutual feelings. I want to see the both of you happy."

"Thank you..."

"Now, let's go find Natsu and make him remember you!"

"W-wait Lisanna! We can't do that!"

"Why?"

"I want him to remember himself... If he really wants to remember me, he'd remember."

"Lucy, you already know Natsu's an idiot! He's dense and he'd never be able to remember by himself; that's why you're here to remind him. It's better to tell him and let him slowly remember rather than not tell him and make him wonder who the person he's slowly remembering is."

"Maybe you're right..."

"C'mon, let's go look for him!"

Lisanna grabbed my hand and we dashed towards the closest town. We found Natsu in no time due to his abnormal hair color that stood out compared to everyone else's.

"Natsu!" Lisanna called out.

"Lisanna? What are you doing here?"

"Lucy's here too!" Lisanna pointed out.

"Lucy, you're here too? That's great, let's look for everyone together!"

Natsu pulled my hand and we ended up losing Lisanna in the crowd. Then, everyone made way for a giant cart. As it got closer and closer, Natsu and I could feel the magic. Then, we saw it. I froze. There, on the cart, stood a giant frozen iceberg with all our nakama inside. Natsu's face scrunched up and he was about to dash forwards, but I hugged him from behind to stop him.

"Let me go, Lucy! That's them! They have them!"

"I know... But we can't do anything now... We'll get captured with them..." I held onto him tighter with tears threatening to fall.

"...Luce, don't cry; we'll get them back. I won't do anything wreck less."

Even though he told me not to cry, I cried. He flipped around, held my hands and smiled his toothy grin, making my tears stop.

"Natsu..."

"Yes?"

"Thank you..."

"Why are you thanking me weirdo? I should be thanking you. You really stopped me from doing something crazy there, so thank you."

"L-let's go look for Lisanna."

"Yeah, let's go."

We sneaked through the crowd in hope of finding Lisanna's whereabouts.

"Ah! I think I see her!" Natsu yelled running off.

"N-Natsu, wait! Wait for me!" I said trying to squeeze pass two men.

"Oho, look at the young lady here. Are you alone? Why don't you come hang out with us two?" One of the man grabbed my wrist.

"Let go of me!"

"Why should we? You were practically begging for us with the way you rubbed your chest on me."

"It was an accident! I'm in a hurry."

"Accident? I don't think so."

"I'm warning you one last time. Let me go."

"Or else?"

"This," I replied and pulled his arm backwards.

"Get her!" He yelled towards his partner, but I ran away before he can get to me.

I gently dodged everyone in the crowd to find Natsu, but then a little girl jumped out of no where, making me trip.

"Wahhhh!" The little girl cried.

"E-eh? What's wrong? Are you lost?" I asked the girl warmly.

"Lushi nee!"

"Ehhhh? You know me?"

"Lushi nee! Mama! Papa!"

"Eh? Who?"

"Mama and Papa! Help them!"

"Who are they? Where are they?"

"Bad guys, they got them."

"Alright, alright. Come here," I welcomed her into my arms and carried her up.

"What's your name?" I asked her as sweetly as possible.

"Lushi nee forgot me! Wahhhh! I'm ashuka!"

"Ashuka?"

"No, Ashuka!"

"Asuka?"

"Hai! Mama is Bishca!"

"Bisca? So your dad is Alzack?!"

"Hai! Lushi nee, les hurry or mama and papa will be hurt."

"Okay, show me the way."

Asuka took me in circles, but we couldn't find them at all, so I tried to sniff them out using Asuka's scent. Soon, we were in an abandoned building.

"Sugoi! Lushi nee can find Mama and Papa?"

"Shhhhh, Asuka. We don't want them to find us."

"Gomen, shhhhhh."

I peeked through a small crack on the wall and saw Bisca and Alzack tied up. They looked different, but they're still as loving as ever. There were 10 people in the room and they looked like they were having a discussion.

"Bisca, I'm going to need you to stay low okay?"

"Stay low?"

"Hide here."

"Okay."

"If someone comes, run."

"Okay Lushi nee."

I went through the building and tried to think of a plan. I called Loke and Virgo out.

"Loke, help me distract the guys and Virgo, untie the ropes on Bisca and Alzack."

We entered the room and attacked the villains. They pulled knifes out on us and we tried to do as little damage as possible. We refrained from using magic and used mere strength to beat them up. After knocking out a couple of them and Virgo managed to untie the hostages, we were about to run until someone blocked our way holding Asuka by the neck.

"Let her go! She has nothing to do with this!" Bisca yelled.

I walked toward the man and then the man pulled out a knife to Asuka.

"Don't come any closer or I'll stab her!"

By the looks on how the man held the knife, he was a newbie. This was probably his first time using this knife. He was even shaking. I knew he wouldn't dare stab a helpless child, so I moved closer each time. This time, he held the knife out towards me.

"I said don't come any closer!"

"Give her to me and I won't hurt you. I know you're doing this for a reason, but you don't really want to do this. You don't want to hurt anyone, so let the girl go and get rid of the knife."

He slowly let Asuka down and as soon as her feet were connected to the ground again, she ran for her parents. I sighed in relief and turned , the man scurried off.

"Loke, Virgo, you may go back now."

After they left, I smiled at Asuka, Bisca, and Alzack.

"Thank you, Lucy, but why do you look so different?"

"I'm not from this world. I'm a different Lucy."

"Ahhhh, like Natsu who came from a different world?"

"Yeah, but how do you know about that?"

"We were at the guild when Natsu told us the story."

"Ah, well, I'll see you guys back at the guild. I have to look for Natsu," I claimed and walked backwards not letting my back turn.

I tried avoiding the crowd this time and went around the buildings. I sniffed Natsu's scent out and stumbled over to his direction. I turned one more corner and smiled when I saw his salmon hair color. However, it immediately turned into a scowl after seeing that Natsu was hugging Lisanna. I know that I shouldn't misinterpret it because Lisanna already told me how she felt about this... But I still don't know about Natsu's feelings. I stepped back and left to find an alley so I can clean the bloody mess on my back. I slowly grabbed the knife that was still connected to my lower back from the previous man who stabbed it into my back before running off. In one pull, the knife was out. If I was normal, I would've screamed in agony, but my torturous experience was worse than this. Before moving on, I took off my shirt. Then, I ripped a piece of cloth off black shirt to wrap around the inflicted wound. Soon, I put on what was left of my shirt and headed back to the guild. However, I bought a black jacket first.

"Lucy, where were you?!" Natsu shouted at me from the bar.

"I was saving Bisca and Alzack."

"What?"

"Forget it. Are Wendy, Carla, and Happy back?"

"Yeah!"

"Aye!"

"Happy, Carla, Wendy, here are some magic restoring pills!" I threw them each a pill.

"Can it restore everyone's magic too?" Edo Lucy asked.

"I don't know... But you can try."

I gave one to edo Lucy and she swallowed it, but nothing happened.

"I guess it doesn't work on us," she shook it off.

"Yeah, but magic isn't a necessity for a guild. A guild is made up of nakama. As long as you have each other, you're a guild."

"Keh, why am I giving myself a lecture?"

"Eh. Anyway, I've been wondering for a while now, but who's the master around here?"

"We did have one... But he passed away. Laxus would've taken over as master, but he said he could never take his grandfather's position... So here I am now, master of Fairy Tail."

"Y-you're the master?!"

"Yeah."

"Really?"

"Why would I lie about that?"

"Ah... It's just, I didn't think I'd become the Master in another world..."

"We are not the same person -.-"

"Lucy! Come over here!" Natsu called for me.

"Sorry, Lucy. Got to go."

I casually walked over to Natsu.

"You bought a jacket?"

"Y-yeah! I don't know why but it was getting pretty chilly."

Natsu took off his scarf and wrapped it around my neck.

"N-Natsu?"

"You're cold aren't you? You can borrow this for a while."

"Th-thank you..."

Honestly, I didn't think he'd let anyone wear his scarf. He said it was from Igneel, and indeed it was because it smells just like him.

"Lucy... Let's go... Let's go get our nakama back."

"But where? Where are they?"

"Lisanna said they should be at the castle."

"Yeah, let's go get them back."

"I'm coming too," Lisanna claimed.

"Lisanna, I want you to stay here and wait for us," Natsu said.

"But I want to help them too. Mira nee and elf nii are there. I want to save them."

"Lisanna, please... We just got you back..." Natsu stated.

"Okay..." Lisanna sighed.

Natsu, Happy, Wendy, Carla, and I left the guild and headed for the castle, for the people who stole our nakama.
