Chapter One~
Lucy gulped as Jiemma and her walked onto the stage.
"Oi, brats!" Jiemma shouted, capturing the guild's attention. They looked at him, muttering, 'What is it now?' 'Again?' 'Can we ever do our own stuff?'
"We have a new member of the guild so treat this one with respect! She's a special girl." Jiemma chuckled darkly and Minerva headed towards the stage.
"Lucy Heartfilia?" she asked, slightly smirking.
"Yep, Minerva." Lucy nodded and smiled.
"How are you?" Minerva asked, waving her hand.
"This is not the time for that, Minerva. Brats, this girl has an ability you can't ever dream about so like I said, treat her with respect. She's Lucy Heartfilia." Jiemma said.
The guild members started whispering to each other but Lucy didn't mind.
"Is she really that strong, Jiemma?" Sting asked, standing from his table.
"Yeah, brat. So don't do anything rash." Jiemma went back to his office, leaving Lucy alone with Minerva and the others.
"So, blondie, are you all they say you are?" Sting asked, going near Lucy.
"Maybe." Lucy replied and giggled.
"I'm the great Sting Eucliffe." Sting said and Lector flew to his side.
"Sting is the best!" Lector bragged.
Rogue walked towards Lucy, "Rogue."
Lucy smiled at him and Frosch flew into her arms.
"Frosch is Frosch!" Frosch said and Lucy hugged the cute exceed. Rogue took the exceed back and glared at Lucy.
"Oh. You shouldn't touch Frosch too much. Rogue cares for her too much." Sting said and smirked, "But you can touch me all you want, blondie."
"Shut up, Sting." Minerva said and smacked Sting in the head.
Rufus and Orga introduced themselves to Lucy and she did nothing but smile at them.
"Milady, would you like a cup of tea?" Rufus asked Minerva and she blushed.
"No." she said and turned her attention towards Lucy, "You shouldn't parade around here too much so go on a mission."
"Okay." Lucy answered and suddenly sighed, "I can't do much around here anyways."
"You can stick with me." Sting said.
"Sting-sama, don't flirt with Lucy-sama." Yukino said, walking towards the happy people. She smiled at Lucy and bowed to Minerva.
"There's no need to bow for now, Yukino." Minerva crossed her arms.
"Milady is polite today." Rufus said and Minerva looked away. Orga saw the two of them and started singing a love song. The guild members, exceeds and Jiemma covered their ears.
"Orga, stop! You're breaking glasses!" Sting shouted and as if by cue, a clear water glass broke into pieces. Sting shuddered and Orga finally stopped.
"Nice singing." Lucy said, smirking.
"Thank you, Lucy. At least someone knows talent when they see it." Orga said and Lucy chuckled.
"Perhaps Miss Lucy is being sarcastic, Orga." Rufus said and Minerva hit him on the arm, "Apologies, Milady."
"Don't call me that!" Minerva shouted.
"They're so noisy." Frosch said and Rogue glared at Lucy.
"She's the reason why it's noisy." Rogue whispered and Sting heard it.
"Yo, Rogue, take a chill pill and meet the blondie." Sting said, putting his arm around Rogue's shoulder.
"No." Rogue said and walked away with Frosch following him.
"What's his problem?" Lucy asked, glaring at Rogue's back.
"He doesn't like new people too much." Minerva and Yukino said.
"Rogue-sama is-"
"It's nothing personal, Miss Lucy." Rufus smiled at Lucy and she nodded.
"Let's forget about Rogue and get some beer!" Orga shouted and Yukino sweat dropped.
"Orga-sama, we-"
"Yeah. Let's do that!" Lucy cheered and Sting smirked.
"Looks like blondie's a fun little girl." he said and ruffled Lucy's hair.
"I'm not a little girl! Lucy Kick!" Lucy kicked Sting to the doors of the guild.
"Very impressive, Lucy-sama." Yukino clapped.
"Geez. You're like Virgo, Yukino." Lucy sighed and they went to the bar without the passed out Sting.
"What do you want?" a violet haired girl with brown eyes asked. She was the supposed barmaid of Sabertooth, rumored to be very powerful.
"Beer, Violet." Sting answered and the girl rolled her eyes, "We're out of the stuff."
"Kotone-sama, please give us beer." Yukino said.
"Sure." Kotone presented them with three mugs and three teacups. She poured the mugs with beer and the teacups with sugar and coffee powder. She gave them to them except Sting. One mug was still in her hand.
"Tsubaka, you want this?" Kotone asked, waving the beer around Sting. Sting snatched it and she went into the kitchen.
They all drank their drinks and sighed.
"Lucy-sama, that barmaid was Kumori Kotone-sama." Yukino continued, "Sting-sama calls her Violet as an insult."
"What about the others?" Lucy asked.
"I call her Miss Kotone, Miss Lucy." Rufus said.
"Ko-chan." Minerva said.
"Kotone-sama, Lucy-sama." Yukino answered.
"Rogue calls her… Kumori and they always have fights. It's either verbally or physically or simply just a staring fight." Orga said, "I call her Kotone."
"Not the right time to talk about me. Jiemma-san needs you in his office." Kotone said, walking to their spot.
"All of us?" Orga asked and she shook her head. She pointed to the blonde mage, "He needs that one."
Lucy nodded and walked into Jiemma's office, "What?"
"How is it going?" Jiemma asked, not looking away from his paperwork.
"It's only been an hour. No need to worry so much." Lucy shrugged.
"One hour is like one year, Lucy Heartfilia." he said and Lucy shuddered, "Don't say my full name! It's so gross!"
"Just don't let anyone find out yet. They will all treat you more like a girl who needs respect. They'll treat you like a queen bee." Jiemma said and Lucy smirked.
"I like the sound of that. Lucy the Queen Bee." Lucy said, imagining herself in a king's gold chair.
"Go back to your friends." Jiemma ordered and Lucy smiled.
"Friends, huh?" Lucy said.
"Just go."
Lucy giggled and exited her new Master's room. She went back to her friends and held Yukino, "Hey Yukino, how're your spirits?" she asked.
"They're fine, Lucy-sama. Libra-sama is still the same, along with Pisces-sama." Yukino giggled at Lucy's new attitude.
"You're acting weird for a blondie, blondie." Sting said, looking suspiciously at Lucy.
"Want me to Lucy Kick you to next week, Sting?" Lucy asked, smiling so wickedly at Sting. He backed away, carrying his chair.
"Good." Lucy said and turned to Minerva and Rufus, "When will you talk again?"
"Milady was talking to me, Miss Lucy. I am very sorry." Rufus said.
"About what?" Lucy asked.
"Nothing, Lucy." Minerva said and glared at Rufus.
"Alright then." Lucy shrugged and Rogue came back to the guild with Frosch.
"Lucy-san!" Frosch flew to her and hugged Lucy. She hugged the exceed back.
Rogue ruined the moment and grabbed Frosch. He went to the bar and glared at Kotone. She glared back.
"Go away, Kumori. I have better things to do." Kotone said.
Rogue suddenly turned into his emotionless self again, "Usual and I'll leave."
Kotone threw him a can of soda and he caught it. He turned to leave but not without smiling at Lucy secretly. Lucy slightly blushed.
"And now he communicates with me?!" Lucy whispered and turned to her new friends.
'Baka Rogue Cheney!'
