Author's POV
She was walking through Hargeon, angry because when she used her sex appeal to lower the price for a key the seller lowered it only 1,000 jewels.
While walking some girls run by talking about Salamander. Saying he is a famous mage,which perks her interest, so she quickly runs off in the direction the girls were going.
When she got to the crowd of girls she looked in the middle only to see Salmander. Her heart started to beat rapidly as she pushed through the crowd to see him better.
Once she reaches the front of the crowd her heart begins beating hard against her chest.
"Is this love? Is this why my heart is beating so hard?" She wondered,
"Bora of Prominence." Someone said, knocking the celestial spirit mage back to reality,
"What are you talking about?" 'Salamander' asked, chuckling nervously,
The curious celestial spirit mage watched the man that spoke out. She couldn't see him very much but she new she likes his demanding nature. His voice was also smooth. When he spoke she saw his canine teeth which she thought was kinda weird but soated him. The cape which he had on looked like it was worn out a bit. Through the hood he wore she saw salmon pink hair. She couldn't really see his face with the hood covering it though.
She was brought out of her thoughts by the girls running away screaming. While the girls were running away they pushed her over.
"Itai!" She said when she landes on the hard ground,
"Hey" Someone said,
She looked up and saw a blue cat standing on its legs (?) looking at her.
"Um, Hi?" She asked tilting her head a bit,
"Are you alright? You fell pretty hard." He said,
"Oh...Uh...Yh" She said standing up and dusting her skirt off,
"So I'm guessing you're a mage?" She asked taking up the blue cat,
"Yep! Are you?" He asked,
"Yep! I'm a Celestial Spirit mage just like my mother was!" She said happily,
"Was?" He asked tilting his head,
"Ah, sh-she died when I was younger." She said with a small smile,
"Oh, I'm sorry Miss! I didn't mean to make you sad!" He shouted waving his hands about,
"Oh, no, it's ok! You don't have to worry." She said calming down the cat,
"Ok...My name is Happy, by the way." He said smiling up at her,
"Happy? That's weird to call a cat.But he does make me happy with how cute he looks." She thought,
"My name's Lucy." She said smiling brightly at him,
"Excuse me" Said the same voice from earlier,
She looked up to see the same guy who had confronted 'Salamander'. He had him thrown over his shoulder like a sack of potatoes.
"That poor girl." Someone whispered,
"I know. What if Chaos hurts her?" Another said,
"Chaos? As in the one who likes destruction? The one who was trained by Acnologia himself?" She thought looking up at the man, who's looking down at her,
"Is Chaos your real name?" She asked him tilting her head to the side,
"No! His name is Natsu!" Happy said smiling at her,
"Natsu?" She asked looking up at him, he looked at her surprised that she said it but he quickly regained his composure,
He then walked off, leaving both Lucy and Happy behind. But Lucy does not like being ignored so she followed him with Happy in her arms.
"Are you gonna follow us?" Happy asked,
"Well, it depends exactly. Where are you two going?" She asked looking down at the cat in her arms,
"We're going to our guild!" He said happily but Natsu just clicked his tongue,
"What guild are you in? I always wanted to join one." She said,
"Our guild is Fairy Tail!" He said,
"We're going to Fairy Tail! I heard so much about that guild!" She said brightly,
"Is Fairy Tail really that rowdy? Is Mira as pretty in real life as she is in the magazines? Is Natsu the strongest?" She kept firing questions not caring if they were answered or not,
"You really think Fairy Tail is that good?" Happy asked,
"They say the members of Fairy Tail treat each other like family." She said with a smile, "Besides I don't have a family it would be nice to at least feel like I have one." She said whispered but Natsu heard her,
"I have to give Bora to the authorities before we go back there." Natsu said pretending he didn't hear her last sentence,
"By the way, why do you keep calling him Bora? Isn't he Salamander?" She asked looking up at the male walking in front of her,
An irritated sigh escaped his lips, "His name isn't Salamander, it's Bora. Bora of Prominence. He tricks girl with love charms then sell them off." He said,
"What a horrible guy!" She shouted,
"Well you were a victim of his love charms." He said with a chuckle,
"Hey, I wasn't aware he was using one so that doesn't count." She defended,
He only laughed at her though.
The rest of the walk was quiet except for small snores coming from a certain blue cat.
After handing Bora off to the authorities, they began their walk to Fairy Tail.
"Hey Natsu?" He didn't answer,
"Natsu?" Yet again no answer,
"It's rude to ignore, someone who's talking to you." She said under her breath,
"Baka Na-kun" She said with a pout, then is when he stopped, she stopped when he did,
"What did you call me?" He said glaring at her,
"What? Na-kun?" She asked tilting her head to the side,
"Don't call me that." He said, still glaring at her,
"Why?" She couldn't see his glare the shadow the hood was causing didn't give her the ability to see it,
"I don't do nicknames, woman." He said a small growl escaping his lips,
She then walked over to him and raised her hand, expecting a slap he growled at her making her jump but her hands still went forward.What she did actually surprised him. She didn't slap him she took off his hood.
"You're even more handsome than you sound." She said under her breath but he heard,
"If you call me my name I'll call you your name." She said smiling at him,
"No" Was his answer,
"sigh, fine then, Na-kun." And with that she pulled his hood back up and walked ahead,
He growled under his breath but followed.

It was getting late. The sun could be seen setting over the horizon as the two walked in silence and Happy, also in silence, was being held by Lucy.
"We stay here for the night." Natsu said as they stood in a clearing in the woods,
"Ok" Lucy said,
She and Happy left for fire wood while Natsu left for food.
When they came back, Natsu was already back with a dead boar at his feet.
After setting up the sticks Natsu lights his finger on fire and place it on the wood letting it light ablaze.
After eating, Happy went right on sleep, leaving the celestial spirit mage and the dragon slayer alone.
Lucy lie down on her back as she watched the stars. It always had a calming effect on her. It reminded her of her mother and of her celestial spirits, that she loves them dairly and treats them as friends instead of tools and shields.
"Hey, Na-kun?" She asked, he grunted, disliking the nickname she gave him, but him grunting just showed he's listening to her,
"Thank you for letting me come with you to Fairy Tail." She said then drifted into a deep sleep,
Natsu was surprised she told him that. He lie back on the ground. Did she even know who he was? Maybe she wants something. All those were the thoughts going through his head. He knew one thing though. She's a weirdo.
The next morning, Lucy woke up feeling movement. She lifted her hand and rubbed her eyes and yawned.
She then realized Natsu was carrying her on his back.
"Why didn't you wake me up instead?" She asked him,
"You wouldn't wake up." He said,
"Ok...why didn't you leave me there?" She asked,
"Happy wouldn't let me leave you behind." He said, letting an irritated sigh escape his lips because she was asking so many questions,
She looked at the blue cat on her head.
"Thanks Happy." She said reaching her hand up and petting his head,
"And thank you, Natsu, for carrying me." She said also petting his head,
"Since you're awake you can get off now." He said as he stopped walking,
"Way to ruin the mood." She said with a pout climbing off his back,
He only huffed in response and walked away. Lucy took Happy off her head and held him in her arms then followed Natsu.
•~•~•~•
They were finally at the guild.
"Here we are Lushy!" Happy said flying out her hands,
"You can fly!" She said surprised by the wings on the felines back,
"Yep!" He said proudly,
Lucy then realised Natsu walking off.
"Na-kun, where are you going?" She asked him but he just continued walking,
"Na? Kun?" Happy asked tilting his head, "He refused to call me my name and instead called me woman so I thought I'd give him a nickname." Happy nodded his head in understanding,
"Ok, let's go inside!" Happy shouted,
He then slammed the door open flying in. Lucy walked in right after him. Just as the magazines said the guild is very rowdy. Some were fighting, some were drinking and some were acting like normal people, sitting and talking.
Lucy avoided the things that were being thrown and walked to the bar.
"Hello!" Said the bar maid in a very cheery voice. She was a slender girl with nice curves. She had long white hair which was slightly curled at the ends. Her bangs were also tied up. She wears a sleeveless, ankle-length maroon dress with a pleated skirt. The chest is adorned by a large, pink bow, and similarly colored trimmings frame the rather ample neckline, acting as straps, and circle around the waist. She also wears high-heeled shoes that match her dress, and accessorizes with a small chain necklace with a blue oval gem attached to it, and a bracelet made of white flowers circling her right wrist.
"Are you Mirajane Strauss?" Lucy asked excitedly,
"Yes, I am! But call me Mira. Are you here to join the guild?" She asked sweetly,
"Yes." Lucy answers,
"Master will be back shortly. And we will see if you can join." She said and Lucy nods,
Then a booming voice and a huge giant walked into the guild.
"I LEAVE FOR A COUPLE MINUTES AND THIS IS WHAT HAS BECOME OF THE GUILD!" Said the giant angrily to which everyone stops,
Just like Mira, Lucy wasn't scared or frightened, she was smiling.
"CLEAN UP THIS MESS!" The giant boomed, and everyone does what he says, then all of a sudden he shrunk into a small old man with a white mustache.He jumped up on the counter on the bar and sat cross legged.
"Hello there. I haven't seen you around." He said, looking at Lucy,
"Hello, my name is Lucy." Lucy said smiling brightly,
"Master, Lucy would like to join the guild." Mira said,
"Oh, what magic do you use?" He asked,
"I'm a Celestial Spirit mage. I can summon celestial spirits." She said,
"We don't have one of those. So you would like to join the guild?" He asked,
"Yep!" She said,
"I have the stamp here Master." Mira said,
"Great, stamp Lucy, Mira." He said with a smile,
"What colour and where?" Mira asked,
"Pink and on the back of my right hand." Lucy said, and Mira gave her the Fairy Tail mark,
"Welcome to the guild, Lucy. My name is Makarov Dreyar, the 3rd guild master of Fairy Tail." He said with a grin,
"I'm happy to be here, Master Makarov!" She said with a bright smile.
She then ran over to Happy, who was sitting on a table eating fish.
"Happy look!" She said showing him the guild mark, "I'm now a full fledged memeber of Fairy Tail!" She smiled,
"Great job, Lushy!" Happy said,
At the end of the day, Lucy went around Magnolia to find a place to live. She finds an apartment that costs 70,000 jewels. Even though it costs alot, it's the cheapest one in Magnolia and is close to the guild so she bought it and moved there.
A/N:
Kon'nichiwa!
Even though I've already made a story about Natsu being feared, I couldn't help but make another. I read alot of stories where Natsu is raised by Acnologia so if this sounds like a story you've read that's probably the reason. That's all I have to say for now. I hope you enjoy this new story.
Sayōnara!
