She watched as her new spirit raised his hand and snapped- making her fall down.
"owwwww." glaring at the spirit she was about to give him one of her lucy kicks when what he said registered in her head.
"new spirit? new spirit. NEW SPIRIT!" letting out a squeal of excitement she hugged her new spirit rapidly asking him questions.
"what's your name? what key are you? what abilities do you have? what's up with the cloak? why are you a kid? how did you enter the human world on your own? how are-
"STOP!" her new spirit shouted, while pushing her away.
'do all humans observe mood swings like this? God, I hope not.' he thought while looking at her with a twitching eye.
despite his train of thought however, he could not be any happier that his new master seem to be nice.
he has heard stories from his friends, that were contracted by humans, that summoners were becoming harsher and harsher with every passing generation. But basing it on her emotion and excitement he could say that she was one of the rare master that is kind to her spirits. That, and he could practically feel the protectiveness and happiness radiating from the keys she possess.
'she does have quite the number of keys, more than any other human I have seen. Not that I've seen a lot, but still...'
oblivious to his thoughts, Lucy decided that it was time for a little payback (for pushing her and dropping her). looking at his expression she would say that he was lost in thought. Perfect! With a menacing smile plastered on her face she raised her hands to his small frame and started...tickling him.
Laughing like a maniac, her spirit dropped to the floor while Lucy continued her little torture.
"HAHAHAHAHAHA...PLEASE STO-HAHAHAHAHAHA. P-PLEASE MASTER STOP."
Lucy stopped her torture, and with a smug look, watched her new spirits full blown laughter turn into tiny giggles. rolling to his side, the said sprit, tried to catch his breath.
'finally, I thought I was going to die. Note to self: Don't get master angry.' That was the worst torture he has ever experienced... or so he thought. (hint: Lucy kick)
getting up and dusting himself, he looked at his new master and introduced himself.
"Hi i'm Arashi, spirit of the planets, son of the spirit king." he said while raising his hand for a hand shake.
with that Lucy's mind over heated with excitement and promptly fainted.
... TIME SKIP ONE YEAR...
Natsu Dragneel, or most commonly known as THE Salamander, was going home. He was walking down the familiar street that led to the famous guild, fairy tail. Looking around with child-like wonder he was amazed at how magnolia changed in just a matter of a year.
' I wonder how everyone's doing. Are they mad at me for leaving out of nowhere? Oh shit, Erza will probably kill me for not saying anything" Even as he said that there was this smile plastered on his face. He truly did miss everyone. but he could not get this sense of dread that he was feeling when he thought of a certain blond. You see, during his one year training he got a lot of time to think. yes! natsu dragneel thinks. just not most of the time. You know that saying "you never know how important it is until it's gone" or in this case, until she was gone. During the time he was alone with his furry friend, in the middle of God knows where, he kept on thinking about Lucy and everything she does for them (natsu and hapy). When he was wet, Lucy would always make him dry himself. when Happy needed comfort,
she was always there. when they were hungry, she would always buy them or make them food even though her money always gets spent on damages caused by him. all in all Natsu figured out that he missed her and... and that he loved her.
"I was so stupid; I took too long to figure out my feelings for her. Please. Please to anyone listing out there please let her feel the same way about me. what if..
what if it's to late and she has a boyfriend now? God, please no" With every passing thought, his frown was deepened. He was brought out of his thoughts when he bumped into something or rather someone.
"OUCH! NATSU YOU BIG MEANIE" happy said with fake tears in his eye. the bump didn't really hurt, he just wanted to distract Natsu from over-thinking...again. About a month ago he noticed that natsu started staring into space like a lot. and when he confronted him about it, natsu told him everything. to be honest he was excited and well... happy. he already saw Lucy as a big sister/mother. and the prospect of them being together makes him happy.
" ahh Sorry, Happy." said natsu while giving him a nervous smile. finally they could see the sign Fairy tail. and even though they were still far he already felt that something was wrong. the guld was covered in dirt with collapsed beams and the word fairy tail was missing some letters so it only formed. 'fai y ta l'
" happy. carry me to the guild now." noting his seriousness, one that you could only see when a nakama was hurt, he immediately obeyed. picking up Natsu they flew towards the guild with max speed.
