Heya everyone! Ish is going to happen! I'm so excited! Well… not really… I have already planned what's going to happen in my head buuuuut, it's kinda sad so I am excited, but I'm sorry that you guys have to read this. The reviews I got from last times preview just made me feel guilty for this but since it was already planned to happen, I couldn't do anything! This just makes the story interesting... Enjoy!
Disclaimer- I do not own Fairy Tail! Duh…
After Regionals, the group decided to go celebrate by going back to the school. As they headed back, Lucy and Wendy went to pick up some cake.
"What cake do you think we should get Lucy-nee?"
"Um… I'm not sure… Maybe one Strawberry cake for Erza and a chocolate cake for everyone else. A big chocolate cake. How does that sound?" Lucy ruffled the little girl's hair.
"That sounds great! I'm so hungry now!" She pouted.
They laughed.
"It's ok, we're nearly there."
"But how are we going to carry it back?"
"I'll ask if they can deliver it for us. We are fragile girls after all."
~ Back at the School ~
"Do you think Luce and Wendy are going to take long?" Natsu pondered.
"Dude… It's been 5 minutes. Don't be such a worry wart." Gray shook his head in disbelief.
"I guess your right… I just have a really bad feeling is all."
"Alright! Who's ready to party?!" Wakana burst through the doors.
"Guys! You're here! Takeshi-nee!" Gajeel started acting like a child.
"I've never seen Gajeel like this before… What do you think is wrong with him?" Levy asked.
"Don't worry. He's not sick and he's not on drugs. It's just that his sister scares him. Ever since they were little, Takeshi has always been the dominant one. No need to worry, I'm stronger than Takeshi anyway." Erza sniggered.
"Oh you wanna go red?! You think you're stronger than me?! Let's do this!"
"Now, now… No need to get violent- oof!" Takeshi tackled Erza.
Everyone turned pale. No one treated Erza like that and lived to tell the tale.
"Gajeel… should we do something…?" Levy squeaked.
"Naa… My sister can handle it herself." Suddenly, a chair was flung onto Gajeel's face. "Salamander! You little fuck!"
"It wasn't me! It was Stripper!"
"Don't go making accusations! It was Raijin!"
"No way man! It was Yoru!"
Everyone began brawling whilst Wakana and Levy hid under the counter.
"Why do we have to die so young?"
"I don't know Ana-chan…"
~ Back at the Bakery ~
"Finally! We're here!" Wendy exclaimed in joy.
"Yea! Now I have to ask if they can deliver it to our school…"
As the girl's walked in, a small bell run off.
"Oh hello Lucy dear… Are you here to get Erza's usual?" A plump old lady asked.
"Yes and no. We're just here to get some celebratory cakes. Do you guys do a delivery service?"
"In fact, we do! Where would you like us to deliver it to? And what cakes would you like dear?"
"Um… Can we please have the usual Strawberry cake and the biggest chocolate cake you have?"
"Of course honey. And you can pay once it's been delivered. Is that all?"
"Yep! Thank you!"
The 2 girls left the small shop and headed down the small street.
"Well… I guess that's that." Lucy shrugged.
"Lucy-nee… Do you love Natsu-nii?"
The question almost made Lucy choke on her own spit.
"Um… Why do you ask?" Lucy chose her words carefully.
"Natsu might say that he doesn't love you anymore, and that he's moved on, but he's lying. He's telling the truth when he believes that you belong with Sting, but he's lying when he says he doesn't love you anymore. He still loves you. And he always will." Wendy smiled.
"I… I somehow knew that already. I could see it in his eyes. But… He told me to choose Sting, no matter how much it hurt, I have to forget about him!" She could feel tears spring into her eyes.
"I know that… I just thought you should know that you were the one for him."
The girls stopped at a pedestrian crossing, looking left and then right to see if there were any cars before crossing.
Wendy ran ahead, excited as they could see Fairy Tail.
"C'mon Lucy-nee! Walk faster!" Wendy was already metres in front.
"Wait up Wendy!" Lucy shook her head as she continued walking in her normal pace.
Suddenly, a car came out of nowhere. It swerved right and left chaotically.
A drunk driver… Wendy!
"Wendy! WENDY!"
The car hit the small girl as fast as a blink of the eye.
The drunk man popped his head out his window, looked at Lucy and drove off.
Ivan… Ivan did this… I will never forgive you... Makarov's own son...
Time seemed to slow down as Lucy ran towards the limp body. She fell to her knees, placing Wendy's head on her legs. Blood puddled up. A crowd started to form around them.
"Wendy… Wendy… Wake up… C'mon Wendy…" Lucy sobbed.
"Lucy…" The little girl's mouth felt dry. Even opening her eyes hurt. "Lucy… Natsu-nii is going to kill me isn't he? He always worries so much… Tells me to be careful everywhere I go… I should've listened to him… I was just so excited... You guys are definitely going to win... But I'm worried about Natsu-nii... He lost Mama and Papa and now me…" Wendy's body became colder and paler. Her breathing more shallow and rough.
"No Wendy… I'm going to carry you to the school. I'll get you to a hospital!" Lucy wiped the blood and tried getting up.
"No… Lucy… Don't… There's no chance that I'll live. I study medicine, remember?" Wendy laughed slightly, wincing at the pain she had created.
"Somebody! PLEASE! HELP! Call the ambulance! Please…" Lucy begged.
The people around began searching for the phones, frantically calling.
"Lucy… Don't worry… Just promise me something…"
"Anything Wendy! Anything…"
"Tell everybody I love them… And…" Wendy began coughing, blood was everywhere. Her hands trembled. "It's so cold..."
"Save your breath Wendy! Don't leave!"
"Take care of Natsu…"
"Huh?"
"Take good care of him. Promise me…" Wendy closed her eyes.
"I promise… I promise! Don't close your eyes!"
"He… loves you… Lucy…" Wendy's body went limp.
Lucy's eyes widened. "WENDY!" She hugged the small girl. "No… no… This can't be happening… No… Wendy… I promise… Wendy… I'm sorry!" Lucy cried.
~ Back at the School ~
"The girls are taking a long time… Don't you think?" Natsu asked.
Everyone nodded.
"Yea… I have a bad feeling too."
Natsu stood up. "I'm going to go to the Bakery and check to see if everything is alright."
Just then, there was a knock on the door. Natsu walked over and a young man holding cakes were standing there.
"Hi. I'm here to deliver 2 cakes."
"Um… Thanks…" Natsu paid him and gave Erza the cakes. "Oh! Have you seen the 2 girls that ordered the cakes?"
"No… I haven't… There was a little commotion down the road that caused quite a traffic jam. Everyone was frantic and there seemed to be blood but I'm not sure, there were too many people to see through."
Natsu ran out the doors. Running past buildings he listened to his own breathing and thoughts that exploded in his head.
They're ok. They're ok. No need to worry.
Natsu chanted. He then saw a crowd of people up ahead. On the ground, he saw a mop of blonde hair and blue hair. Pushing through the crowd, Natsu screamed their names. When he made it to the front, he wished he could control time.
"Wendy…" Natsu collapsed as his knees buckled under him.
"Natsu… I'm so sorry… I couldn't protect her… Natsu…" Lucy looked up, her face smeared with blood and tears.
Natsu crawled to her and hugged both of them.
"She'll make it…She has to…" He was about to stand up and carry her but something stopped him.
A siren sounded off and an ambulance and a police car came into sight.
"Please step aside everybody!" A police officer ordered. "Are you two related to this girl?"
Natsu nodded.
People with a stretcher then came and scooped Wendy up. They placed her into the ambulance.
Lucy and Natsu stood up, leaning on each other.
"Lucy…"
"Natsu. You go with Wendy. I'll stay with the cops." Lucy's bangs covered her eyes.
Natsu hugged her. "Don't worry…" He whispered into her ear before he ran into the ambulance.
"Miss. Would you like to tell us what happened?"
"It was a hit and run. I know who did it."
The police officer was surprised at her boldness.
"Who?"
"Ivan Dreyar, Master of Raven Tail."
"Are you sure?"
"Do you think I would lie?! I just watched my best friend die right before my eyes!" Lucy began crying all over again.
"Miss… Please calm do-"
Lucy started running. She wasn't aimlessly running though, she knew exactly where she was going.
Bursting through the school doors, Lucy cried out in anger and sadness. She fell over as her tears made her eye sight blurry.
"LUCY!" Everyone was alarmed.
"What happened?!"
"Are you ok?!"
"Calm down!"
"Why are you covered in blood?!"
"Where's Wendy?!"
"Wendy… Wendy was run over by Ivan… It was a hit and run… Ivan killed Wendy!" She cried louder.
Everyone froze.
Makorav pushed his way to the front.
"I'll deal with my sorry excuse of a son. The rest of you go to the hospital."
Everyone ran out the doors, only Romeo, Erza, Takeshi and Gray remained.
"Lucy… It's ok… Don't worry…" Gray hugged her. They considered each other as siblings.
"Romeo…" The little boy looked up from his tears. "Romeo… Wendy loved you."
Romeo burst into tears and fell over, Takeshi barely catching him.
"Let's get going, ok guys? Gray, you drive, I'll carry Lucy. Takeshi, you carry Romeo. Let's go." Erza trembled slightly.
Once the small group made it inside the hospital doors, they noticed the nurses' stares.
"If you're also from Fairy Tail, the rest of them are on level 11. Our condolences." One of the nurses bowed.
They thanked her and ran into the elevator. Once on level 11, it was all occupied by Fairy Tail. Natsu turned his head at them, only to start crying again.
Macao hugged his son. Erza ran to Jellal. Lucy trudged to Natsu and stopped in front of him.
"Lucy… I've never felt so helpless before…" His voice failed him as the lump in his throat was growing.
"I'm sorry Natsu… I hope you can forgive me…"
"I never blamed you…" Natsu stood up and hugged Lucy. He began crying and so did she.
Why her? She didn't do a damn thing wrong… If anything, I should've died… Why is the world so cruel? Is there even a God? If so, how could God be so unfair…?
Omg… (Breathing in and out deeply) sniff sniff… I can't believe that I made you go through that. Gomen! The last few sentences was inspired by Angel Beats by the way... Omg... Now there's a lump in MY throat.
Next chappie:
He knocked at it softly before opening it anyway. When Natsu walked in, his nose twitched at the strong smell of blood. He ran in without thinking. Reaching the bathroom, he noticed the blood, glass and unconscious girl.
Dang… That's all! See ya!
