Hello wonderful fairy tail lovers, how are you all today? I hope your doing great considering I have a new chapter for you on this lovely Monday! Gosh I just love monday's don't you? Just thought I'd warn you, only lucy's point of view will be in first person flashbacks and fairy tails POV will most likely be in third person, if thats too confusing or just weird just let me know in the comments and i'll try my best to write the whole story in first or third person.
DISCLAIMER: I DO NOT OWN FAIRY TAIL!
Previously on the Five Soldiers of Purgatory:
"So it's settled then."Kain says with a clap of his hands "we'll go explore at sun down." "But first there's a shipment of jewel we need to hijack."
"You may not have meant harm but you sure caused harm. I don't need your sympathy nor do I want it got it! sympathy is for the weak! I am not weak and I sure as hell will not be sitting this mission out! Understand me!" I say with venom laced in my voice
Chapter Two: Blast from the past
Meanwhile back at the fairy tail guild hall
"What are you doing Cana?" Guildarts asks his daughter as he approaches the table she's hunched over, and try's to sneak a peak at what she's working on.
"Remember when Natsu claimed that he smelled Lucy a while ago?" Cana, busy at work trying to decipher what the cards are telling her, answers Guildarts question with one of her own
Gildarts scratches his head trying to conjure the memory of the day when Natsu spazzed out "yeah , seemed as if he lost his fire for a minute, that day."
"Didn't that strike you as a bit strange?" Canna hinted "I mean she was supposed to be dead, and Natsu can't smell dead people, or at least I don't think he can anyway." Canna added as an afterthought
"Yeah now that you mention it, it does sound kind of strange."
"Yeah well it gets even stranger. Just yesterday, I was in town coming back from a job when I come across this old sorcerers weekly magazine from two weeks ago and I see this picture of the five soldiers of purgatory. Which struck me as strange because aren't they supposed to be a dark guild… anyways do you see that girl right there? With the really long blonde, almost gold, hair with black highlights. You know the one wearing the white half shirt with the black leather vest and miniskirt with the badass combat boots. She has a Fleur de lis tattooed on the side of her neck, and a platnium dagger attached to her hip. Also she's standing in between the boy with the blood red hair and, gold eyes, and the boy with the jet black hair and silver eyes." Canna described looking at a picture of Lucy, Cam and Ty, on the day of their mission on mount hawkabe.
"Yeah I see her." replied guildarts
"That girl is known as eclipse, she's their leader an–."
"What are you getting at Cana?"
"Look at her hands… why is she only wearing a black studded fingerless glove over one of them?"
"I don't know." guildarts said frustrated tired of all this talk about fashion after all he was a guy and guys are only interetested in clothes when they're taking them off "A fashion statement maybe."
"No. I think she has something to hide, maybe like a pink guild mark placed on her hand a few years ago."
"So what your saying is that this Eclipse, leader of the five soldiers, and possibly the strongest mage in fiore, might be Lucy?!" guildarts said disbelieving "she's supposed to be dead."
"Yeah but what if she didn't die… What if someone lied?" Cana said in an ominous tone
"Or…" said guildarts trying to remain logical and rational " what if this is all one big coincidence?" Guildarts took the time to study his daughters face, and he could see the sadness and pain she tried so hard to bury. Lucy was one of Cana's closest friends and her death, hit cana pretty hard, he didn't think his daughter would be the same...but now looking at her staring at that picture of eclipse he could see the tiniest bit of hope leaking into her and bringing happiness back, he hasn't seen cana like this in a while. "Look Canna." he says with a resigned sigh hating to be the bearer of bad news "lets say that this 'Eclipse' is Lucy then what are we going to do… obviously she has changed, or else she wouldn't be hanging out with those guys, she would've come back to us...which she hasn't."
"I know." says cana "I've been wondering about that little tidbit myself, which is why i decided to turn to the cards and see what they have to say on the matter."
"Well what do they say?" guildarts asks
"That's the problem!" Cana says frustratedly as she throws her hands in the air with an exasperated sigh "They don't make sense… all i get is a the truth will be revealed soon, and this is the beginning of an end."
"Hmmm"is all gildarts says as he strokes his beard pondering what the cards could mean
Sorry for the short chapter there will be more later today promise
