I was spinning myself on my spinning chair and got really dizzy, bad idea. Now I have a headache *depressed*I do not own Fairy Tail.


~Apartment~

~Lucy's POV~

We took a train back to Clementine and arrived there in the early evening. We walked the streets of Clementine, and made our way to the apartment. The door was kicked down, I caustiosly stepped over it.

"Guys," I sighed. "I think my old team may have broken in."

"Yeah, but who? You don't have any enemies right?" Damon asked.

"Well, Astrid does I guess, but they wouldn't come in if there wasn't anyone in."

"WHERE IS MY ICE CREAM?!" Astrid shrieked in horror.

She had walked straight in and made a bee line for the freezer, only to find her stash of strawberry ice cream gone.

"AND WHAT HAPPENED TO MY STRAWBERRIES?!" Liz wailed.

She was hoping to have a nice berry treat after their recent events, only to find the container empty.

"AND WHO BURNED ALL OF MY BOOKS?!"I cried.

I wanted to find out what happened in the next chapter, only to find my entire bookshelf in ashes. Wait, the only reason for her books to be burnt is, Natsu.

"NATSUUUUU!" I shouted.

"YOU MEAN THAT FIRE FREAK ATE MY ICE CREAM?!" Astrid growled.

"NO, GRAY DID."

"YOU MEAN THE STRIPPER?!"

"THEN WHO ATE MY STRAWBERRIES?!" Liz wailed.

"ERZA DID!" It was obvious.

"WHO'S ERZA?" Liz yelled.

"I'LL TELL YOU LATER." I huffed and sat on the partially torched couch. "GREAT, NOW WE NEED NEW FURNITURE!"

"WHAY ARE WE YELLING?" Damon yelled.

"Huh?" My voice was raspy.

"Well, now that that's all cleared up, why don't you go clean yourselves off and get the hell out of here, hm?" Astrid cocked her hip.

"Ash! You don't have to be so rude!" I hissed.

"Well, what are you waiting for?!" Astrid stared.

"I'll shower first." Liz left, glaring at Astrid.

"I'm going to go clean my room, it's pretty messy." I pointed to my room and slowly walked away, leaving the two alone.

~Astrid's POV~

Lucy left the two of us alone in the living room. I sat on one couch, and Damon sat on the other one in front of me.

I stared at him.

He stared at me.

Whoa, is this some kind of déjà vu? Because I remember I was in this same situation not too long ago.

"So…Astrid right?" He asked.

"That's my name, don't wear it out." I grunted.

"How did you and Lucy meet?"

"In a cave." I took a sip of water.

"Whoa, what were you guys doing in a cave?" He wondered.

"Training." I replied.

"Training for what?" He asked.

"I don't know, get stronger?" I shrugged.

"Lucy tells me you're really strong."

"That's because I am." I leaned back and scoffed.

"What's your favorite ice cream?" He asked yet another question.

"As long as it has strawberries I'm good." I took another sip.

"What about your favo-" I cut him off.

"What's up with all of these questions?" I asked.

"Just curious." He shrugged.

"My turn, why does your sister hate me so much?" I wondered.

"Well, there was this one girl, back at the orphanage that used to bully her a lot. And I guess you remind her of that girl."

"Huh…" I mumbled. "Did you dye your hair? It looks so unnatural." I inspected his hair.

"What? No way! It's completely natural!" He protested.

"Then what about your sister? Is that really her natural hair color?"

"Of course it is!" He said.

"Hmm, I'll accept that answer…" I mumbled.

"How would we even be able to dye our hair? We have no money for it." He said.

"Uh, don't you guys have shape shifting powers?" I sighed.

"Oh yeah, I forgot…" He mumbled.

"How could you forget about your own magic?" I sweat dropped.

This guy doesn't act his age, he acts like he's my little brother or something. Eh, he's still better than Liz.

"I'm done!" Liz hopped out of the bathroom.

She wore a blue sundress with purple flowers.

"Alright," Damon got up. "My turn." He shut the door behind him.

Now I was left sitting on the couch, Liz sat on the one that her brother sat on before.

I stared at her.

She stared at me.

"So," I said, breaking the silence. "Looks like your hair isn't fake after all."


~Team Natsu~

~Normal POV~

'Lucy is dead'

That's what the three mages thought as they rode the train back to Mangolia in silence.

After they had discovered the ribbon and chain, Sing and Rogue had gone back to Sabertooth, leaving without a word.

Erza stared at her lap, where a single piece of strawberry cake laid untouched. Gray stared outside, ice formations in the shape of keys formed on the window. Natsu clutched the bright red ribbon in a tight grasp as he tried his best not to pass out from motion sickness.

Hours of that silence passed and the announcer went off.

*The train has now arrived at Mangolia*

The three reluctantly got up. Erza pushed her cake to the side, causing it to topple over onto the floor. Gray pulled on his shirt, and the ice formations that decorated the window melted. Natsu rose from where he was laying on the floor, his bangs covered his eyes.

The trio slowly walked to the guild, all of their heads were down. Instead of Natsu kicking the door open with a big smile shouting "WE'RE BACK!" Erza slammed the door open and they walked in, not making a sound.

"You guys came back earlier than expected, where's your reward?" Mira asked.

"Did flame brain destroy another city again? Gihi." Gajeel chuckled.

"Gray-sama!" Juvia cried hearts in her eyes, but she stopped short. "Gray-sama, what's wrong?"

It was then when the guild members noticed the tension in the air.

"Natsu? What's in your hand?" Levy asked.

Natsu let go of the ribbon and it fell to the floor.

"Isn't th-that Lu-Chan's?" She asked with a shaky voice.


~Apartment~

~Astrid's POV~

Lucy came back from 'cleaning her room' about five minutes later and she was currently whining about her torched books.

"Ugh! Now I won't know what happens to L!" She wailed as she swept up the ashes. "Next time I see Natsu he's dead meat!"

"I like your attitude." I smirked. "But the stripper is mine! I paid for that ice cream!"

"I'm going to fight Erza!" Liz declared and we both looked at her.

"Um, Liz?" Lucy asked.

"Yea~h? Liz swirled her straw in her drink.

"Do you know who Erza is?"

"Now that I think about it, no." Liz frowned.

"She's really powerful." Lucy informed the girl.

"I'm strong." Liz argued.

"No, like stronger than me and Ash strong." Lucy explained.

"Oh, who is she anyways?" Liz asked.

"The most powerful mage in Fairy Tail, other than the master." Lucy said.

"Eh? What's Fairy Tail?" Liz cocked her head to the side.

"Kid, I hope you're ready for the story of Lucy's life." I sighed.

Who knows how long later, Lucy finally finished the story of how she went to Fairy Tail, making friends, and being kicked out. Liz was pretty upset about it. And upset meaning upset.

"I am going to kill them." She drew a shaky breath.

"Get in line kiddo." I growled, I get riled up every time I hear that story.

"And you forgave them?!" She hissed.

"Pretty much." Lucy sighed.

You shouldn't ha-" Liz was cut off by the bathroom door opening.

"Hey guys I need more clo-" I threw a pillow at him and shielded my eyes.

Lucy and Liz shrieked and looked away.

"PUT SOME CLOTHES ON!" I yelled.

"Oh shi- SORRY!" The bathroom door shut again.

"I think I'm scarred for life." Liz quivered.

"YOU COULD HAVE AT LEAST PUT ON A TOWEL!" I yelled again.

"THERE AREN'T ANY!" He yelled back.

"WHAT ABOUT YOUR OLD CLOTHES?!"

"THEY ARE COVERED IN ASHES, AND MY SHIRT IS HALF TORCHED!" He shouted.

"I'LL GET YOU SOME NEW ONES!" Lucy joined the shout-fest.

"SO WHAT, I'M JUST GOING TO WAIT HERE NAKED?" He shouted.

"THAT'S THE PLAN!" Luce yelled back.

"Can you please stop? My ears are ringing." Liz whined.


Ah, poor Liz…

Review? C'mon all you have to do is type a few words, even if they're random!

Bye! ~
