2 months and a lot of training later because I am lazy
"Good Lucy, you are getting stronger, now for some time you will be in the spirit world training with them, it may be years for us, and only a day or two for you" I almost wanted to cry, I would be leaving Grandine and Mystogan! They were my last family. I-I couldn't just leave them… but Grandine was always right, Grandine always knows what's best. So I have to respect her choice and do as she says. But I would love to spend one last night at the guild with Mystogan. Speaking of which he was sitting in a tree eating apples again.
"Could I leave tomorrow? Then I could spend some time here and at the guild before I leave…" She only nodded then went inside, I couldn't tell how she was feeling about me leaving but I knew I would miss her dearly.
"Mystogan! Come on! Let's go to the guild for a bit, that way I can work on remembering everyones names!" He jumped down and we started to walk to the guild. I had my cape, gloves, and boots on from Edolas. Today I would let them see there was a person. Although I think Mystogan will just pop up upstairs. I was so excited to walk through town sort-of-seen, I have never walked through Fiore like this, only other towns when I went on small missions. Jumping around and squealing I caught some funny looks from Mystogan but I didn't care, I was so excited. But when we got to the edge of the forest I couldn't take another step, I just sort of paused. I realized I was hyperventilating and all I could think about was when my parents died.
"Lucy! Are you ok? Calm down!" I fell to my knees and the last thing I remember seeing was Mystogan shaking me and yelling something and a spirit showing up. Although I wasn't quite sure which one because I passed out with the horrible memories flooding my head, but it was different than I remembered
I stood up and brushed myself off, but I was older now, I was more powerful. Looking around, the carriage was still on fire and broken, the horse was missing, the thieves knocked out, my parents and the driver dead, but it was night, and the sky was a shining crimson red, looking around everywhere else was pitch black, only the outlines of the trees were visible around me, a cool strong breeze flew over everything, the trees bent almost snapping, I looked around worriedly then the fire went out, and everything suddenly stopped, the sky had gone pitch black, there was nothing. The world was dark and silent. Then screams. High pitched blood curdling screams rang out from everywhere, and warm rain started to poor buckets, but it didn't smell like rain. It smelt like blood, fresh blood. I fell to my knees, puking up. I heard footsteps approaching me, but looking up I still couldn't see anything. Until slowly a single candle followed by the dark outline of a figure under an umbrella stopped right in front of me,
"Luce"
I woke up suddenly, sad, confused, and another feeling I couldn't decipher. I looked around seeing spirits, sitting up slowly I rubbed my head, there was a small white puppy with a carrot nose sitting in my lap mumbling 'plue plue' every so often. To my right Aquarius was draining water from a flannel looking quite upset
"Aquarius? Where- where am I? Is this the spirit world?" Her head whipped over quickly, her worried expression turning to one of annoyance
"Of course you are child, you're here to train remember? You passed out and Virgo and I have had to look after you for 2 days! Nuisance" She dabbed the flannel on my head then removed the plue from me
"He hasn't left you this whole time, we got you his key and he seemed pretty happy about that" she straightened up and I stood up too. She motioned me over to some people and spirits
"These are all the 12 zodiac spirits and some silver keys, although some's keys already belong to someone" just nodding I looked around and smiled as they all introduced themselves, some I already knew. A little after I went into training, it was rougher and more painful than Grandine's, but this wasn't the same magic I was learning. As I trained she explained some things to me, like, I would still age as I would normally, I would get to return every so often, and sometimes the spirits will take me when called. That was more than I ever could have asked for so I happily agreed although I would've loved to say a proper see ya later to everyone. But I would see them soon anyways so for now I'll train.
Time skip to when their 16, which I've been dying for!
"Lucy!" I was back and for good. My spirit world training was finished and I had control over both of my magic containers, one for each magic pretty much. I ran up to Grandine and Mystogan hugging them, I hadn't seen them in 3 months! And today was my 16th birthday! I had already celebrated with the spirits like we did every year, and now I was home with my family
"So what's new guys?" We were all sitting around eating and laughing
"Master has a mission he wants you to do, apparently it's a perfect mission for you, even told one of the S class wizards that it was reserved, and it got put up by accident!" Now that sounded interesting. I hadn't taken the test properly like the others S class wizards did, honestly I was just given a mission once when I came home and when I got home an hour later I was told I'm now an S class wizard.
"Really? I think I'll go down there tonight. Seen" Grandine stopped eating at that. Mystogan and I hadn't told her we tried again a couple years ago because we didn't want to scare her, she treated us like we were her own children,
"Are you sure that's a good idea?" she looked worried, glancing down then to Mystogan who nodded I looked at her again
"Grandine. A couple years ago… we tried again, and ever since I've been doing that. She only nodded as if thinking about it, then got up and disappeared around a corner. We heard some rumbling and then she came back, I looked to Mystogan and he only opened as if in realization then got up and went to grab something. I looked over to Grandine who just chuckled, he came back a couple minutes later and sat back down.
"Happy Birthday Lucy!" They handed me two packages smiling, taking them I opened Grandine's first, it had a new pair of boots and gloves, and a pink face mask, for missions. I got up and hugged her, putting them on I sat down and Mystogan's gift. It was a beautiful black silk cape with gold lining, and the Fairy Tail guild mark as the clasp. Tears came to the brim of my eyes, it was beautiful. I jumped and hugged him tightly almost choking him to death. Flinging the cape on squealing I spin around
"THANK YOU GUYS! COME ON!" grabbing Mystogan I drag him out the door and toward town laughing like crazy, even running through town like that, I almost tripped twice but I caught myself quickly. Soon we arrived outside the guild. The doors were shut and it sounded like there was a party going on inside
"Are you ready?" I looked over to Mystogan, today he was gonna walk through with me. In plain sight. Nodding I breathe in and push the door open. It slowly creaked open revealing the partying guild, everyone was flying from side to side and breaking everything in sight
"Hehehe oh I missed this place! I wanna join!" jumping up and down clapping my gloved hands I look over to see Mystogan holding the bridge of his nose shaking his head slowly. He looked up and motioned we head in. I happily skipped in dodging and avoiding not being seen. All of a sudden a little blue cat landed in my arms
"Hey there little guy are you ok?" he looked up at me and jumped up wings sprouting from his back
"AYE SIR! Where's my fish?" He was so adorable I couldn't help but giggle and hug him, I picked up his fish still hugging him while Mystogan went upstairs
"Hey Happy! Who are you talking too?" looking over I saw a tan pink haired guy standing on a table, a silly grin on his face, he was a wearing a black vest with gold lining, white pants, and a white scarf around his neck, he was holding up a hand on fire. All of sudden he was punched of the table by a black haired guy only in his boxers and a necklace
"HEY FLAMEBRAIN!" And that started a giant fight causing more destruction than the rest
"Who are you?" I looked down to the little cat 'Happy' he was still sitting in my arms eating his fish
"I'm Lucy! S-class Fairy Tail wizard mage!" I loved saying that, I was just so happy to be part of Fairy Tail, even if only 2 of them knew, and even if I haven't been here most of time.
"You are? I've never heard of you" he looked so confused but I only nodded put him down than ran upstairs waving bye. Looking for Mystogan, I noticed him standing out of the sight watching the fight downstairs
"Happy is an Exceed from Edolas, he can see you" he turned to look at me then back down stairs, I couldn't tell if it was a warning, comment, or something else, but it seemed more like a comment than anything else. A couple moments later Master came up
"Ahh Lucy I see your back, Happy Birthday" he handed me a piece of folded paper, opening it I saw it was the job request Mystogan was talking about. It had something to do with getting rid of some giant beast terrorizing a village, it usually lives in the mountains but for some reason it wouldn't leave…
"Ooh this seams fun! Mystogan wanna come keep me company?" Thinking about he nodded then went to grab a mission in the same area so he wasn't just watching me fight. Walking back through the fight we left without any interruptions and Mystogan kept his promise to not set everyone to sleep. They were all too busy fighting to notice us.
HAPPY P.O.V (It'll be short)
I sat there eating another piece of fish when I saw the Lucy girl and believe it or not Mystogan! They were walking out the guild, and it looked like Lucy had a job request sheet in her hand! Curious I dragged Natsu outside with me.
"Natsu, that's Mystogan right? And apparently that's an S-class mage named Lucy! From our guild!"
"Well then why don't we follow them?" It was a strange idea but I wanted to know who Lucy was and I think Natsu did too, so we did just that, mostly out of earshot. After a day of walking we arrived at a fork in a road, it looked like they lead to two villages, but they didn't seem that far apart.
Lucy P.O.V
We finally arrived at the fork, where I would go left and Mystogan right. The villages were about a day's walk, and hated each other. A lot.
"Whoever finishes first has to wash the dishes for a week" grinning I shook his hand agreeing to the bet. There was a chance I would win, but there was also a chance I won't. I'm not sure what his job is, and mine had a monster
"See you later! Oh and you might want to unbandage your hands while washing the dishes!" we headed our separate ways laughing, and the weird feeling of being watched was back. But like Mystogan said, it was probably just some animals and nothing to be worried about
