Anyway, back to the story, this chapter and the next one will consist of 6 different points of views; Lucy at the welcoming party and then writing the letters, Team Natsu on the trail of finding Lucy, Mira FINALLY catching up to Team Natsu while also thinking of a punishment for Lisanna, Master Makarov at the Guild Master Meeting, where Laxus is currently and also a certain someone he meets on his way, and finally the rest of Team Austin coming back! Now, enjoy the story!
(Back at the Blue Pegasus Guild: Lucy's P.O.V)
"Awww, come on Master Bob, can't you just stay?" I asked pleadingly to the elder man with her biggest puppy dog eyes and gripping on him.
"I'm sorry Lu-chan, but I really have to leave right now, I got to attend my guild masters meeting or they will surely get a hissy fit!" He said with one hand on his chin.
"Alright, I understand…I'll see ya later then, ne?" I said with an upbeat attitude.
"Of course, now excuse me, I'll be using my teleportation magic to reach Crocus." He said while focusing magic energy around him. I stared at him in awe, the bright yellow light around him was just mystifying.
Within 3 seconds he was gone, I turn around and back to the bar where 3 boys were waiting for me. There was Manny, Hibiki, and then Austin. All 3 seemed to be having a good time since they were drinking on their beers like there was no tomorrow.
'Looks like Cana has some competition, huh?' I thought to myself while smiling at the thought.
"What are you smiling at Lucy? You're acting like a weirdo." Austin said to me while using a big grin.
My face then went from smiling to a blushing, pouting face. "You know, that's not really nice. Anyway, Master Bob just went to the Guild Masters Meeting and I just said bye to him. And, I think I might head off early, there's something that I'm gonna do." I said to the 3 boys.
"Aww come on Luce, you can stay longer, I mean this welcoming party is for you afterall." Hibiki said pleadingly, hoping that ought to keep me to stay.
"Yeah, listen to loverboy! He's got a good point and plus you can even make more girlfriends while you're here." Manny said trying to back up his friend.
"Well, you make good points, so yeah I'll stay a little longer." I said with a genuine smile.
"Yeah, so lets PART-" Hibiki tried saying until…
*DOOR SLAMS OPEN!*
"HEY EVERYBODY, WE'RE BACK FROM OUR MISSION!" A rather feminine and loud voice rang throughout the guild.
All heads turned to the entrance and many of the members welcomed them back as well. When I turned my head, I saw a single female figure along-side with a single male figure at the front.
The girl had pinkish magenta hair with a white skull barrette on her left side, with pink eyes, and one canine tooth from her grin. As for her outfit, she wore a black vest with a dark green bikini top underneath, a brown belt with black horizontal stripes, dark green cargo pants, a golden necklace, and finally a dark purple Blue Pegasus insignia on the right side of her stomach.
As for the boy, he had short, dark blue hair with some sheen in it, with light blue eyes and glasses, and clear olive skin. The outfit he wore was a white dress shirt with a cerulean tie around his neck, then an orange jacket over the shirt, brown pants, blue and black boots, an orange Blue Pegasus guild mark on his left hand, and finally a black guitar case on his back.
"Looks like they're back from the mission, I suppose." Austin said to me, Hibiki, and Manny while slipping on his beer.
"Exactly, who are they?" I asked, still confused at the situation.
"That's the rest of Team Austin." Manny explained to me.
"Yep, they are extremely talented wizards and Team Austin is considered the strongest in our guild." Hibiki had then bumped into the conversation.
"YOOO, guys we're over here!" Austin shouted across the guild to the rest if his teammates.
As soon as his team mates heard Austin they walked up to the bar where we were, while also giving confused looks over at me.
'Honestly, they look kinda cool, all they need is their pet and it would be almost like Team Natsu.' I thought to myself. It wasn't even 30 seconds until I got out of a trance by the sound of…
"AUSSSTIN!" A sad voice cried over the guild. Most of couldn't find the source until I looked up at the ceiling. There I saw Peewee flying and crying in the air, and then descending down at a tremendous speed. All of a sudden, Peewee lost control and slammed right into Austin's face, causing him to fall backwards.
"UGHH… yes? What is it Peewee?" Austin moaned while trying to get right back up. I noticed that Manny, Hibiki, and the other 2 from Team Austin were snickering at the background.
"*sniff* Auuussstin, *sniff* I wanna new *sniff* outfit." She managed to say through her sniffling and tears.
"Not again, I don't wanna Peewee." He whined.
"PLLLEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE EEEEEEEASE!" Peewee asked with the biggest puppy dog eyes in the world and started clinging onto his shoulder. (A/N. Get it, Peewee is a gexa, which is a flying dog….hehe…anyway, back to the story)
'That is soooo KAWAII!' I thought to myself while also giggling.
"Fine." As soon as Peewee heard that, she immediately let go of him and floated in the air patiently in the air next to Austin. I noticed that Austin shut his eyes and a magic circle went underneath him. With the light enveloping him, a few seconds later, there was a VERY pink outfit and brown belt in his hand.
"Thank you Austin and see ya Lucy!" The gexa said while snatching the outfit quickly from his hand then dashing off to somewhere else.
"Whaaaa…how did you do that?" I asked.
"Wait, didn't I tell you? I use Water Pegasus Slayer magic and also Arc of Embodiment. As long as I think of something, that item will appear right into my hand." Austin said.
"That's so cool, anyway Austin, are you gonna give me an introduction to your team or not?" I said jokingly to him and nudging him on the shoulder.
"Oh that's right, Lucy Heartfilia meet Violet and Masuki. Violet and Masuki, please meet Lucy Heartfilia, the new member of Blue Pegasus and maybe even Team Austin." He said to his teammates while smiling awkwardly and nervously.
I extended my hand over to the girl named Violet, "It's a pleasure meeting you Violet, and WHAT A BEAUTIFUL NAME YOU HAVE."
"Uhh..Happy Birthday." She said awkwardly and shaking my hand. I tilt my head to the head and say, "Whaaaat?"
"Sorry Lucy, she's a little shy when meeting new people and doesn't know how to take a compliment, but it's a pleasure meeting you too." Masuki had explained and then gave out his hand. I let go of Violets hand and then put it in Masuki's hand.
'He seems like the gentlemanly and sophisticated type.' I thought over to myself, and then letting go of his hand.
"So what type of magic do you use Lucy?" Violet asked in a shy voice. Seriously, is THIS the same girl that literally kicked open a door earlier and screamed out loud?
"That, I use celestial magic. I'm able to call spirits from the Celestial World and have them as my partners. They really help out a lot. Also, I managed to collect 10 out of the 12 golden gate keys. And, what type of magic do you guys use?" I said to them smiling, both had shocked faces when I said that I collected that many golden keys.
"WELL, I use Pirate Swordsmanship magic, meaning that I can handle any kind of weapon such as knives, swords, kunais, and even katanas. Plus, the barrette in my hair is a boost up on power and speed that has been passed down for generations in my family. While Masuki uses Musical-Make magic, meaning that he can create a song and it could either be good or bad. A lullaby on his guitar will be able to heal ANYONE, no matter what kind of illness. Then, a hard rock song could totally ANNIHILATE anybody in his way. This is some seriously intense magic, no other maker magic can compare to Masuki. I mean, even his name means victory in English." Violet exclaimed excitedly and also her eyes gleaming.
"Wow, you get excited when you talk about magic, don't you Violet." I said smiling back at her.
"Yeah, you know what! I DECIDED! You'll be my new best girl friend!" She said while taking her arm into mine.
"I have no objections." Masuki said then looking at Austin. "Yep, same here!" Austin concurred.
"Since we're makin decisions, can she also be part of our team?" Violet asked the 2 male members of Team Austin.
"Sure!" Both of them said at the same time. I smiled and said, "REALLY?! I can join your team! That sounds amazing, but will I hold you guys back or anything, I mean I heard you guys were the strongest in the guild."
"It's alright, as soon as we go on a mission together, we will be able to communicate and know one anothers' strength and weaknesses in battle." Masuki said.
"That sounded beautiful as always Masuki." Austin said while laying an arm around his teammate.
"YAY~! WERE GONNA HAVE SO MUCH FUN LUCY! I CANT BELIEVE THAT YOU'RE GONNA BE ON OUR TEAM!" Violet shouted out loud and squeezing me to death with her huge hug.
"HEY VIOLET, WILL YOU SHUT YOUR MOUTH FOR LIKE 20 SECONDS?! SHEESH!" A random guild member yelled back at our group.
Suddenly, the once happy atmosphere turned into a dreary, dark one. I also noticed that Violet was no longer excited and peppy, instead she slowly removed her arms around from my slim waist and quietly said, "What did you just say to me punk?" Her head was facing down and I could feel a strong, powerful magical aura around her.
It was then I noticed that everybody in the guild was trembling, even Team Austin, and that Violets eyes were no longer the lovely, inviting, and warm pink eyes that I first saw, but now bloodshot red. She then again slowly turned away from me and onto the guild member that dared shout at her.
The magical energy was now getting stronger and I can tell that some real shit is gonna be going down soon. Her hair was now flowing upward and her hands were now into fists. In a sudden movement, her head went up right away and she instantly charged over to him at a jaw-dropping speed.
That guild member was now in shock aand yelling, "IM SORRY VIOL-"
Until he was cut out by the intense uppercut punch she delivered to him in the jaw. She landed gracefully on her feet and the guy was sent to the other side of the room and then slammed into the wall and then finally hitting the floor, leaving a giant hole there.
The guild hall was so silent that you could hear a pin drop. It seemed that it lasted for a lifetime, the way that people remained motionless and stiff. That silence was then interrupted when Austin stepped in and said, "OK Violet, did you get that out of your system?" while walking over to her and placing a hand on her shoulder.
"Yeah…I should be alright now. Anyway, I think I'm gonna head home, I'm tired from the mission that we took earlier and I'm gonna get some rest." As she was walking to the exit of the guild, she turned around and finished off with, "LUCY~! We totally gotta hang out later. See ya!" Then with that, she was gone and off to home.
"Wow, I never expected that side of Violet EVER!" I said to Austin and Masuki.
"Yeah, Violet is a very powerful mage, but she needs a little help in her anger management. You see, whenever someone tries to backtalk her or insult her, she just loses it. But sometimes, I feel that she is just bipolar (-_-)" Masuki explained.
"Yep and due to that, she has been given 2 nicknames." Austin then followed through with.
"Oh and what would that be?" I asked him questionably.
"Firstly, she is known as Violet the VIOLENT! As I said, she is an incredible mage but what surprises everyone is her magic. She mastered it perfectly, but she is also capable of destroying A LOT of things in a mission. Then, her second nickname is 'Prestigia'. Prestigia comes from her family, she was a top swordswoman in her family that were originally pirates and that title is very honorable. The word is combined from the words 'prestigious' and 'queen', which is actually fitting for the strongest female mage in our guild." Austin had answered.
"Wow that is an impressive backstory, I'm totally gonna hang out with her tomorrow." I said happily.
'She definetly reminds me of Erza. I mean, the magic is almost similar, the attitude, and even the nicknames! Then, there's Masuki who uses maker magic like Gray, but I feel his magic may seem a little bit cooler and he doesn't strip. I mean, he can heal anybody and even annihilate stuff. Then there's Austin, both Natsu and him use slayer magics. Damn you god, WHY ARE YOU DOING THIS TO ME!' I thought in my head.
"That's a great idea, you know what? Violet hardly gets along with other girls but maybe having you on our team will be a great way for her to be more social with girls. So, nice to meet you Lucy" Masuki said while walking closer to me and then took my hand and placed a gentle kiss on it, "I hope that we will become great teammates." With that little show done, I blushed a million shades of red and then saw him walk out of the guild next with a little grin on his face.
I look back at Austin and realize that he has a flabbergasted look on his face.
"H-h-he just k-kissed y-y-your hand." Austin managed to say but it was all stuttered.
"Eheheh…yeah I know, anyway I gotta go Austin." I hastily said while trying to leave until he grabbed my hand and brought me close to him.
"Don't let him do that to you EVER again." He whispered into my ear. I immediately tense up at his actions and then realize what position that we were in. "As a goodbye present, I present you with this." Austin said.
"Oh, and what would that b-" I was caught off guard when I saw him come close and then kiss me on the cheek.
"EHHHHH?" Was all I got to get out until I saw him dash out of the guild at full speed.
"Well that was DEFINETLY unexpected, but I really have to go now, its 5:00 and I gotta find an apartment to stay at." I said to myself.
I walked out of my new guild and walk throughout the town until I landed on Chocolate Avenue. There seemed to be a lot of vacant apartments, so I walked up to the medium sized yellow one. I ring on the doorbell and was greeted by…SHOUGA?!
"Huh, I'm not Shouga. I'm her twin sister Kouga. Anyway, would you like to stay in this apartment?" She asked me in a kind manner. They may be sisters but they seem to have different personalities when you first meet them.
"Yes, I would love that. How much?" I asked kindly.
"Let's see, that would be 30,000 Jewels ($300 Dollars in America)" She replied back to me.
"Oh, that sounds reasonable." I say and then reach inside my bag for my wallet. I grab out the $30,000 Jewel and hand it to the landlady.
"That's great, here are your keys!" She said with her eyes gleaming with the money presented over to her and her handing over the keys to me.
"Thanks Kouga!" I said as she walked away and I used the key to open my new apartment. The layout overall was the same with my old apartment. I go through my bag and take out the air space cube that I had. It carried all of my necessities and I chant out loud, "Release all items in the order in which it started from."
With a huge whirlwind coming out of the cube, I had to shut my eyes shut so that they could not feel the pressure. Once I opened them, I looked over the apartment and notice that everything is like how it was when I was back in Magnolia. I had my bed, desk, closet, clothes, etc.
I go over to my desk and decide that this is the perfect time to write my 3 letters. After 3 hours, I finally came up with a most perfect letter that expresses my feelings and thoughts on my matters right now.
The first letter was for Master Makarov and it went a little something like this:
Dear Master Makarov,
How are you doing? Well, I'm doing just awesome. Currently, I found a new place to stay and finally call it a home to myself. Even though I left, I feel that my heart and soul will always remain in Fairy Tail because that seemed to be the first place where I actually felt like I had a caring family and that no one can ever replace the fact of what all you guys did for me. I hope that the 'new and improved' Team Natsu is doing good. I just wish them good luck in the future. Anyway, please tell Levy that I just completed my story and I will send my novel over to her, but I won't have a return address. Also, I will send a gift especially for Wendy that I found in a shop, so tell her to be excited about that. That is all the news I have for now, I'll promise to write again to you soon. After all, celestial spirit mages NEVER break their promises. Ciao! 3
The next letter was to Shouga, my old landlady, after all I did promise I would write her, and stellar spirit mages NEVER break their promises:
Dear Shouga,
I finally found a new home. I decided to go with the guild Blue Pegasus since I had friends from here. Also, I have a good feeling that I will make new friends easily. Also, I have BIG news! As of today, I have a new landlord and it just so happens that it is your twin sister Kouga. Other than that, I have no firther new so please reply as fast as you can. Love, Lucyy!
Finally, Team Natsu of Fairy Tail:
Hey Guys,
I'm SORTA sorry for what I did on my leaving of Fairy Tail, however you guys wouldn't let me have the opportunity to travel on my own and that is really selfish after ignoring someone for 3 consecutive months. Anyway, I just wanted to tell you guys that I finally found another family to call my own unlike you guys near the end of my time there. Just note, don't let go of Lisanna once you read this…I'll feel disappointed, after all you guys just fawn over her since she came back. Soo, good luck with future missions and this may be the last time you hear from me in letters. Sayonara, Lucy Heartfilia, EX member of Fairy Tail.
I looked at my clock and notice that is 7:50! I quickly sealed the letters in the respective envelopes and then send them off with the messenger bird, making sure there was no return address. I jumped onto my warm bed and then started thinking over the sequence of events that happened ever since I quit Fairy Tail. I mean I got to meet up with Laxus, get 3 new keys, meet up with the Trimens, Team Austin, and Manny, join Blue Pegasus, and most importantly found a new family and nakama that I believe will take care of me.
When all my thoughts seemed to be all settled, I fell into a deep sleep on my bed.
(Meanwhile at the Guild Masters Meeting: Master Makarov's P.O.V)
It is now 4:00 and I'm getting worried, I still don't see Master Bob of Blue Pegasus. I immediately head down to one of the chambers and as soon as I reach out for the door, I sense powerful magical energy and light coming from behind me.
As soon as I let go of the door and turn around, I see a huge figure enveloped in a bright while light.
As soon as the light died down I saw my comrade, Master Bob, in his usual attire and with a smile on his face.
"Hmm? What has gotten you so happy Bob?" I asked him questionably.
"Oh well~, today we have a new member and you wanna know something strange, Makarov?" He said somewhat serious.
"Huh? And what would that be?" I then said to the Master of Blue Pegasus.
"Our new member was an old member of your guild. Lucy Heartfilia. She's an absolutely wonderful gi-"
"WAIT?! LUCY IS IN YOUR GUILD?" I yelled at him.
"EH~~…Yeah, the poor thing told me her story of being kicked out of the team and then came all that way so she can join this guild…" He replied back at me, frightened.
"DAMN! I got no time to go to this silly meeting. I need to contact Mirajane with the communications lacrima and make sure she is already with Team Natsu. Bye Master Bob and thanks for the information." I said while disappearing from the Guild Masters Meeting and thus going back to Fairy Tail, leaving Master Bob all alone.
Hopefully, I will be able to help them with the search…
And that is the end of chapter 15! I hope that y'all like this and PLEASE REMEMBER TO REVIEW AND FAVORITE! I already like Team Austin, but please remember to put your opinions as well, I don't judge. I just love the attitudes of Violet and Masuki, just can't wait to add more of them. Also, Kouga and Shouga will be making an appearance again soo, so be prepared for that. I'm already working on the next chapter and I think it will be pretty amazing. Also, please read my other story, all you have to do is look on my profile! So stay tuned for Team Natsu on the search for Lucy, Mira catching up to Team Natsu, and finally where Laxus is. So until then, I'll see y'all later!
