Hello, my fellow Nalu shippers. I'm actually new to FanFiction, so, don't expect too much from me. Anyways, I was actually interested in the idea of Lucy being a Dragon Slayer. I know, I know... That idea is so unoriginal. But, hey, it's fun to write about! So here's my crappy (I think it will be crappy) story of Lucy being a Dragon Slayer. Please give it a try, please! :D
"Caspina, Caspina!" A little girl shouted as she ran throughout the lush green forest. Her feet crunching the dried leaves, blonde hair swaying with the breeze. Her chocolate brown eyes shining in the sunlight that barely managed to pass the trees barriers of leaves. The small tyke huffed and puffed for breath, continuing her search for the someone called, Caspina.
"Come out, Caspina! it's not funny anymore!" Hollering the name once more... But no response. Tears pooled the little girls eyes. "C-caspina! Where are you!?" She ran again, looking through every inch of the large forest.
Hours and hours of searching, but nothing...
Stopping suddenly of lost hope... The small girl hiccuped and began to cry. "CASPINA! MOMMY!" She fell down and curled up in a ball of mess as streams of hot tears rushed down her porcelain face. With each second her heart throbbed with stinging pain.
"P-please... Don't leave me..."
"DON'T LEAVE ME!" Lucy yelled out with her hand out grabbing nothing but emptiness, her face glistened with sweat and in the silent night you could hear her erratic breathing... listen closely and you could hear her heart... breaking...
After minutes of calming herself down she looked at the ground. She was still shaking, but not only from sadness it was because of the night too. Lucy Heartfilia; also known as Lady Lucy Heartfilia daughter of Jude and Layla Heartfilia who were owners of one of the most richest industries in Fiore was currently cooped up in a small hole of a tree trunk. Her eyes looked up at the twinkling sky.
"I miss you mom... Caspina..." Lucy uttered to herself only. A cold breeze blew in the night, causing her to shiver uncontrollably. Putting her knees to her chest and wrapping her tiny arms around them, trying to get some source of warmness. She closed her eyes in hopes of getting some sleep in these conditions, but the sudden flash of her nightmare kept her from doing so...
It was no nightmare... It was a memory that just happened recently.
She frowned, remembering the recent events that occurred a few days ago. It all happened so quick... just like a blink of an eye. Glancing an eye to five keys that were glistening in the moonlight. They were perched on top of her suitcase; that was peeking out of the tree hole since it was a bit large. My eyes watered, again.
"M-mommy..." I whimpered, and was ready to cry another round but a sudden noise caught my attention. It was a twig breaking. Wiping my tears with my woolen sweater, I listened carefully. My ears perked, I caught someone whispering... or at least the people were trying to whisper.
"Oi, Pinky! Move it! I heard it over here." A somewhat high pitched boyish voice harshly whispered.
"What did you call me, Pervert?!" The other voice responded. I felt them get near to my spot and I tensed up. A quick memory of my past played in my mind.
"Ne, Caspina?" Lucy asked in a gentle voice.
"Yes, Lucy?" A elegant voice responded.
"Why do I sometimes feel uh... scared when I see a stranger following me?"
The voice chuckled, "Lucy, my dear. That feeling IS fear... You feel it when you sense danger or feel unsafe."
I looked at the large blue dragon in curiosity. "How do I stop that feeling?"
"Well... if that stranger is still following you. Use your magic to scare him away. There's a reason why I'm teaching you it, and your mother is teaching you Celestial Magic as well. Magic is there to protect you from harm... Don't be afraid to use it if you feel fear. But, don't forget, me and your mother will be here to protect you too." She gave a warm smile.
'But they're not here now... But my magic is still here with me! And I feel them in my magic! in my heart!'
I bared my teeth. My fist slowly being surrounded in water. Once I saw two pairs of legs in front of my hiding spot, I prepared my self to attack.
"Hey, there's a suitcase in here!" One of them said and they bent down to look inside.
Big mistake...
"Water Dragon's Pressure Fist!"
'BOOM!'
"NATSU!"
Fist connected with face and whoever I hit was going to be feeling that for awhile. I quickly grabbed my stuff and made a break for it.
"Hey, wait!" I heard someone yell and footsteps... Great! they're running after me!
I shivered, feeling their presence close behind me. Remembering Caspina's words from my memory.
"Magic is there to protect you from harm... Don't be afraid to use it if you feel fear."
I quickly stopped and sidestepped, catching my pursuer in surprise, dropping my things on the ground and cupping my hand in front of my mouth then took a deep breath and...
"WATER DRAGON'S ROAR!" A blast of water shot out of my mouth and was aiming for it's target.
"Ice-Make: Shield!" A ice barrier deflected my attack. While he was busy I was about to break for it again, but something caught my eye. The color pink flashed by.
"Fire Dragon's Roar!"
I quickly defended. "Water Dragon's Roar!"
Both moves collided and created steam. I was surprised and unable to move.
He's a Dragon Slayer too...?
I quickly shoke my head, grabbing my things and making a run for it.
"Not so fast!" A voice said and grabbed my wrist. I turned to see a black haired kid around my age. He was half naked... My pervert meter went up and I started to tense up.
My fist began forming water once more, ready for another punch, but another hand grabbed it. I looked to my left. There standing was a kid the same age with pink hair?
Great, a Pervert and a Weirdo...
"You have a lot of nerve to punch me in the face!" The pink haired boy said in a angry voice. I whimpered at his menacing look. I'm guessing the other boy heard and he quickly pulled me to his side, causing the pink haired weirdo to let go of my wrist. This caught both me and the kid by surprise.
"Natsu! She was just scared!" He looked at me with understanding. "You were scared weren't you?" My heart was beating rapidly in fear and nervousness.
I slowly nodded, my face covered by my hair.
"I-I'm s-sorry.. You guys were too close and I thought..." A tear slipped down my face. There, I was finally gonna break again.
He frowned and patted my shoulder awkwardly. "Don't cry, please!"
I don't know why but I pulled him into a hug and I sobbed.
It was in the heat of the moment!
Everything that's happened started to take its toll.
He was caught in surprised but returned it. He looked at the boy named Natsu. "See what you do, Idiot!? You make girls so scared they cry!"
Natsu grunted. "How is she the guilty one?! I was the one who got punched by her!"
"Natsu! She was sleeping in tree hole! Who knows what she's been through!" The boy hugging me growled at his friend. I only heard silence, until I felt a poke on my shoulder. I sniffled and look up. "Hey, my name is Gray. What's yours?" He gave me a warm smile.
I wiped my tears and timidly say, "M-my n-name is Lucy..." Realizing I was still in his embrace my cheeks flush pink and I quickly let go. "I'm sorry..." Looking away.
He nervously laughed with tint of pink, scratching the back of his head. "Eh, no problem." He looked at me again. "Nice to meet you, Lucy. As you can see Pinky over there."
"Hey!"
"His name is Natsu." I turn my head and looked at Natsu.
His eyes were burning into mine. "H-hi... I'm sorry for punching you earlier, Natsu..." I shyly walk up to him and inspect his face.
His eyes widened and he tensed. "What are you doing?"
Not saying anything I place a hand on his cheek where a blue bruise from my punch was forming. I concentrated and my hand was surrounded in water.
Natsu was about to pull back but I stopped him. "I'm not going to hurt you, just watch." He listened but kept his guard up.
My water covered hand glowed a bright blue. Gray and Natsu watched with amazement. Once I was done, I let go of his cheek and there was his cheek fully healed. He blinked and touched his cheek.
"It doesn't hurt..."
"Yeah, my magic can heal too, but not as well as the others."
"How are you a Dragon Slayer? Who taught you? Was it Igneel? Where is he?!" I jumped back in fright from his outbursts.
"I- um..."
"Where is he?!" He stomped towards me and his face got dangerously close. I began to growl.
Gray was about to step in but I quickly headbutted Natsu's forehead.
"Listen here, Pal. I don't know who Igneel is! I lost Caspina! she's the one who taught me!" My eyes watered again.
Dang, how many times have I cried tonight?!
"And how would I know where he is!? You're not the only one who is looking for someone!" I bared my fangs at him. He did the same. A dark aura surrounded us, while Gray just watched with a sweat-drop.
I knew I was not going to get along with this guy... Or so I thought.
Gonna end it there. Gomenasai! I promise to update as soon as possible. But, please give some reviews on how it was. I need to know if I need to fix anything. Thank you for reading and have a good: Day, night, afternoon, morning... eh, you get the idea! :D
Cya, guys later!
