Chapter 2: New Magic

Fairy Tail back in Magnolia

Fairy Tail was back in the Guild, Still partying for Fairy Tail's new 'IT' couple. Everyone was having tons of fun, but Lucy wasn't there. Not that they ignored her or anything, she was just 'visiting her parents grave', which was half true.

At the Heartfilia's Grave

"Mama...Papa... I'm going to leave the guild...Fairy Tail.?"Lucy said in between tears. What could you expect? She was a girl who lost her family, and now the love of her life. Lucy was completely lost,With nowhere to go. She only had Fairy Tail as her family, but if she went back, she knew that sooner or later the pain in her heart would completely kill her from inside... and she would lose her smile forever. "No... I have to move on...I need too." she said with a determined face, standing up as she wiped away her tears." That's right. Lucy Heartfilia won't back down just because of some heartbreak!" she nobody was there.

To the Guild

Lucy walked in, and all she saw was Partying. She . She was on her way to the bar, where Mira was, but was unfortunately blocked by the following obstacles; Gray, Erza, Lisanna and... Natsu. She sighed again. "Hey Lucy!" Natsu said with his...Signature grin. Lucy was on the verge of tears, but she stayed strong. "What's up guys?" Lucy said as she Flashed her Best smile that she could muster at that moment. " Lucy, We were wondering if we could go on a job together, as the new Team Natsu." Erza said as she smiled gently. " "I'm sorry guys... I still feel pretty down from visiting my parents grave... I still feel pretty emotional..." Lucy said weakly. It was Gray's turn to speak"It's Okay Lucy, we understand. We can wait Till tomorrow and then we'll go on a job together!" Lucy was shocked. They were willing to wait for her?" It's going to be hard leaving" Lucy thought. "Yeah, We'll Wait!" Lisanna chimed in. " Guys, guys... it's okay, just go on your job together now, I'm fine." Lucy said with her Best, not fake, real smile. This time, it was really real. She was so glad that they cared. "But Luc-" Natsu tried to say before Lucy cut him off, " Natsu, Just go and destroy more stuff." Lucy said with another real Lucy smile while holding back a giggle. "Okay Lucy, If you say so..." Natsu said, with a hint of disappointment. Lucy wanted to break down and cry, but she knew what she was doing was for her own sake. And besides, she wouldn't want to trouble them with her feelings.

She watched as she they picked a job and as they left the guild. Now that the coast was clear, she could continue what she was going to do." Hey Mira, Is the Master in?" ' Yeah, he's in his office right now, actually. Is something the matter though? You don't look so good Lucy, and Team Natsu just left for a job... Did they kick you out?!" Mira said as she ended with a little gasp. " No, Mira. They didn't, It's just that i haven't been feeling too good nowadays..." Lucy said as she smiled weakly. " Oh, Okay, You'd better see the Master before he leaves for a meeting then!" Mira said Cheerfully. Lucy just smiled and nodded, Then she walked up the stairs, to Master's office.

"Umm... Master?" Lucy said as she opened the door to his office. "Lucy my child, what may i do for you?" Master said kindly. " I would like to quit the guild Master." I said straightforwardly. "B-but Why Lucy?" Master stammered a bit. Lucy explained her situation, knowing that the Master would understand. " I see, Lucy. Don't worry, it's fine... you...you may leave the guild."Master said, although a little hesitant. With a wave of his Hand, Lucy's pink Fairy Tail insignia vanished off her right hand. " Thank you Master... Don't worry, I'll be back." Lucy whispered as she walked out of the guild.

The Master was troubled. Lucy told him that she didn't want anyone to know that she left. The Master sighed. He couldn't betray her trust. Even when he wanted to tell the guild now that they're precious Lucy was gone.

Train Station

Lucy had nowhere to go. Virgo had helped her pack everything she needed and now she was carrying a suitcase, walking aimlessly in the Train station, lost in thought. She was Wondering about how she could get stronger. She wanted a new Identity so she start over as a whole new person. She was thinking of a new name. She thinking about a new guild... " HEY! Watch where your're going little Missy!" "Oh! I'm so sorry..." Lucy exclaimed, snapping out of her thoughts. "hmm... where should i go to train?" Lucy said aloud, talking to herself. As her eyes traced down the list of different train stations, 'Devonair' caught her eye. She's never heard of it before, So she figured that she would just go wherever she's never been before." Excuse me miss? One ticket to Devonair please." Lucy asked the lady at the counter. " Devonair? but why would a young lady such as yourself want to go there? that place has nothing but a forest. I have no idea why there ever was such a train station there if only celestial mages can go there!" she exclaimed. " Only celestial mages are allowed?" Lucy raised an eyebrow as she asked. " Yes dear, when you reach the train station, there's a gate that only celestial mages can pass through to go to the forest." the lady answered. " Perfect!" Lucy exclaimed happily. Then she purchased the ticket and waited for the train to arrive.

Lucy arrived at Devonair safely, and boy was it a long ride. The train ride was completely eerie, because no one was on that train, except for Lucy and the Train Conductor. After the long ride of Silence, what awaited Lucy was even more silence. " Okay... this is just getting creepy." Lucy whispered to herself as she shuddered. She walked along a Path outside the Train station until she saw a gate. The gate was a golden bronze, and a bit rusted. It had stars engraved all over it and on the arch of the gate, it had the words " BEHOLD YE, THE STARS THAT RULE THY UNIVERSE" and below it, in smaller writing "ANON,GOOD LORD, TO THEE I LAY MY HUMBLE SERVICES". "hmm... YE means all, THY means your, ANON means right away and THEE means you..." Lucy thought to herself. "Behold all, The stars that rule your universe...Right away, Good Lord, to you I lay my humbles services..." Lucy said softly.

SUDDENLY,

A blinding Bright light Shone on Lucy, And she blacked out.

"ugh... what happened ?" Lucy grumbled as she struggled to push herself up. Just then, a Familiar hand reached out to her. "wha- Loke?! What are you doing here? I'm sure i Didn't call you... or did you come out with your own power?" Lucy said confused, while taking his hand. " No, Lucy. Welcome to the Spirit world." He said as he gestured to the other 12 zodiac spirits and the spirit king. " huh? Why am i here? I'm not even wearing clothes from the spirit world!" Lucy exclaimed, realizing what was happening. Then the Spirit King said,"Old Friend, It is great that you are back...As our Permanent resident." with his voice booming. "WHAT?!" Lucy Screamed with her eyes wide open and her jaw dropping. "Tch. Oh please, if your're gonna be like that you'll never get a boyfriend."Aquarius said with her usual tone." .Aquarius. This is pretty serious... right Spirit King?" Lucy asked with Pleading eyes begging for answers. " Yes. I'm afraid it is. Everyone,Lucy will be The Next Wielder of Star Magic... Our Very own." Every Gasped, except the Spirit King,Loke and Lucy. Lucy fainted instead.

While Lucy was Out, the Spirits were talking. " Star Magic?! Outrageous! How did she get chosen? Nobody has been! Ever since... ever since... i can't even remember!" Aquarius exclaimed. "I know what you mean- ebi " Cancer replied. " So how DID she get chosen, Mama?"" I don't know either, son" Pisces said as they looked at the Spirit King, expecting answers. "Dear Old Friends, Quiet down, and I shall tell." The king said."She found the Gate." " The Gate that only appears once every 100 years?" Loke asked. " Yes, Old friend. The legendary Gate of The Universe."
