Oh-my-gosh-yes!-I-got-reviews! Thank you guys so much! I'm sorry this chapter took a little longer than usual, I'm trying to make it awesome. :P I'm so happy. *Clap along if you feel like happiness is the truth.*

Oh have you heard of the song "Happy" By Pharell Williams? It's one of my favorite songs, but overplayed a lot. Ooooh! It should be Happy's theme song. You know, like how superheroes all have theme songs.

Anyways, I'm going to split each team into one chapter, so yea.

Disclaimer: I don't own Fairytail or any characters in it except for my OC's. Well, duh.


Tiger MIA, this is about Lucy and Natsu

{This chapter or maybe two chapters is/are going to be about Natsu, Lucy, and the rest in carriage 1. Gray and Juvia are in carriage 2, Erza and the exceeds are in carriage 3, and Dysis and Loke are in carriage 4, btw.}


(Lucy's POV)

"No, sturgeon tastes better." Natsu argued back. We've been bickering about which fish tastes the best. I vote salmon, but Natsu likes sturgeon better. We've been at it for an hour or two.

"Natsu, salmon is more rare, and it's sweeter, and juicier, and its…salmon, like your hair."

"Luuuucy. Don't compare my hair to a fish!" He cried indignantly. He's so cute, but he's loud and stirred Arnold in his sleep. I shushed him, but I couldn't help but giggle.

"Would you rather I call your hair pink?"

"You know Luce, salmon is delicious." He smiled, and then frowned.

"Natsu, what's wrong?" I asked him worried.

"Happy called me a traitor." He pouted. Aww…he's so cute when he pouts.

"Happy isn't even here." I pointed out trying to cheer him up.

"But I imagined him standing with his hands on his hips with a sturgeon in his hands calling me a traitor. You know, like you do sometimes." Natsu said imitating me and Happy, sticking his hips dramatically to one side.

I felt a vein appear on my forehead. "I don't do that! And how can Happy hold a sturgeon with his hands on his hips!? Not to mention that a sturgeon weighs a lot more than Happy and I honestly don't think he'll be able to carry one!" As much as I like Natsu, sometimes he can annoy me to no end.

Arnold woke up in my lap a little startled.

"Wats wong?" He asked a little sleepily.

Natsu muttered something which I didn't catch, then said "Way to go Luce, you woke him up."

I decided to ignore him. "Sorry Arnold, did I wake you up?"

"I dunno. I just heard yelling, so I woke up, you know, in case Mr. Natsu needed help." He gave me a toothy grin rubbing his eyes. Awww…he's so adorable.

"If you want, you can go back to sleep, there's no trouble here."

"No, that's ok. I want to walk with Mr. Natsu and talk more about magic." He looked around for Natsu, spotting his pink head. "Let's go Miss Lucy." He grabbed my hand and pulled me off the carriage. I was laughed, he really was adorable.

"Hi, Mr. Natsu." Arnold smiled up at him.

"Hey Luce, hey Arnold." Natsu smiled back. "I see you're up."

"Yep. Mr. Natsu, why are you shirtless?" Arnold asked. "Should I be shirtless too?"

"Oh, he gave it to you to use as a blanket so you wouldn't catch a cold, and keep your shirt on, you don't want to catch a cold now." I scolded him a little.

"Jeez Luce, your like a fussy mom."

"Who are you calling fussy?!" There are times when I wonder why I like him.

"Hmm…" Arnold ran up to the carriage and jumped to tap on the window.

"Arnold, be careful." Natsu and I said in unison. He looked back at us and smiled. Then, when Marisol opened the window, he leaned up to whisper something. She nodded and whispered something back.

Natsu kept an eye on him in case he got ran over by a wheel or something. "Who's the parent now?" I teased him.

He scratched the back of his neck, blushing a little. "Well, it wouldn't be right if our client got run over by a wheel on out watch.

He skipped back to us and grabbed each of our hands. We were walking with him in between us holding onto both of our hands, him skipping along. "I asked mommy if I could have you guys as my parents too. She said that Miss Lucy can be my mom and Mr. Natsu can be my dad on this trip."

Oh ok. Wait what?! I looked over at Natsu who looked just as confused and as startled as me. He caught my eye and I smiled at him. A smile that said 'Sure, Why not?' He smiled back and my heart skipped a beat.

I looked back at Arnold who was still talking. "She said that you guys can teach me how to use magic and everything. She also said that Mr. Natsu and Miss Lucy are in love, but they don't know it yet."

I didn't hear what he said next because I was too busy blushing. I looked up at Natsu to see him blushing too.

"We're not-"

"It's not-"

We started at the same time. We both stopped, and looked the other way. I saw something out of the corner of my eye, but then it was gone and I looked back at Natsu. He was smelling the air. "Luce, people are coming, and they stink. Five in front, four in the back. Go tell the people in the carriage and protect Arnold, I'll go investigate the front." Natsu dashed off, arms already on fire.

"Come on, Arnold." We raced to the carriage, and I opened the carriage door.

"But I want to help Papa."

"Next time when we figure out what type of magic you use of, ok?"

"Ok." I lifted Arnold, he was not light, into the carriage.

"Natsu smelled some suspicious people, so he went up front to investigate. I'm going to check the back. Don't come out or open the door unless you hear the word …Firefly, not for anything ok?" I came up with the first word I could think of and shut the door. Then I raced towards the back of the carriage where I had seen something.

As soon as I got there, I called out, a little scared. "I know you're there. Come out." Three big, burly men came out from behind three trees. They had rich clothing and fancy weapons, but terrible hygiene and menacing faces. Bandits.

I got in a fighting stance with my whip in my left hand. My other hand hovered over the keys. "What do you want?" I asked them, trying to keep my voice steady.

"None of your business girly." One of them replied, the one with the scar on his cheek.

"Now, get out of our way or die." The one with a silver tooth grinned viciously. He was the biggest one out of the three of them.

"Although, she is kind of pretty, can we keep her?" The last one spoke up. He looked less menacing than the others probably because he had a big butterfly tattoo on his arm.

"No one gets to kill me or keep me. I also suggest that you guys stay away from the carriage."

"Now girlie, I suggest you get out of the way before we scar your little face forever." Scar face smiled evilly.

"No." I replied more calmly.

"Like you can stop us, you're just a little girl with a whip." Siler tooth spat.

"Watch me." I reached for my keys. "I summon thee. Open the gate of the maiden, Virgo."

"Punishment time, princess?" She asked coming up from the ground.

"NO! Well, actually, you can punish those guys over there, just leave silver tooth to me."

"Yes princess." Virgo bowed and I rushed towards silver tooth. He grinned sadistically and took out his weapon, a long silver sword, with dried rusted blood covering the blade. I froze. He noticed.

"What's wrong little girl? Don't like my sword? Don't worry, you'll be dead soon enough and your blood will join the others on my blade. He rushed forward and soon we were fighting. {I'm terrible at describing battle scenes, but I'll try.}

He lunged forward and I dodged sneaking my whip onto the hilt of the sword. Then, when he turned for another attack, I pulled the whip and commanded it to contract. It pulled the sword out of reach for Silver tooth who grunted in frustration.

He reached behind him ad pulled out another sword. I lifted my whip and brought it down. Hard, but he dodged and managed to make a deep cut on my leg. I gasped and stumbled back a bit. I should have seen that coming. I narrowed my eyes and swung my whip, this time at the tree branch above his head. Then I swung my whole body forward, my good leg out for a kick.

He dodged swiftly and yelled triumphantly before turning around, only to meet the heel of my boot, on my way back from the swing. He went down hard, but got back up, dazed. I commanded my whip to let go and swung it over to another tree branch.

The battle continued with me swinging from tree branch to tree branch dodging his attacks, while kicking him until finally, he was unconscious. "You just go beat by a little girl."

I leaped down and stumbled a bit because of the cut on my leg. Virgo was off to the side clapping, her battle done way before mine. "Good job princess. Are you hurt?"

"I should be fine Virgo. You can go back now, thanks for helping me."

"Your welcome, princess. Is it time for punishment now?" I closed her gate, then started hobbling towards the carriage. Honestly, I got worse injuries than this before, so I have no idea why it's hurting so much. I froze when I heard more clapping, thought this time, it was slow and sarcastic.

I turned around. That's right. Natsu said there was four people, not three. "Well done, your battle was interesting to watch." A man's voice came from above my head. I looked up and noticed a lone figure standing in a tree in the shadows.

"Come out." I cried wincing a little from the pain in my leg as it increased.

"Certainly." The man came out from the shadows and jumped down. Now I could see him clearly. He was wearing black pants, a black shirt, a long blood red jacket and black boots. He had an ugly, necklace shaped like a skull, and he was holding a small dagger. I looked higher at his face and saw that he had dark blue hair, and red eyes. He was hot in a dark way, but not as hot as Natsu. However, as soon as I saw those eyes, I shuddered a bit. They were a crimson red color and filled with blood lust.

"Like what you see?"

"No." The pain strengthened some more causing me to hobble to the nearest tree and lean on it for support.

"Liar. I don't like liars. What's your name?" He asked coming closer.

"I'm not lying, and Lucy, my name is Lucy."

"Well, Lucy Heartphillia, my name is Tharon. Know what that means?" He stepped closer and now was only a couple yards away.

"No." I reached for my keys.

"I wouldn't do that if I were you." More pain shot up my leg and I cried out. "You want to live don't you? You're lucky I'm thinking about allowing you to live. Not many people get to live after meeting me. Know why?" This time he didn't wait for me to answer. "Because, I'm the hunter."

At the word hunter, my leg gave out and I slid along the tree coming to rest with my legs in front of me, the gash angry red and bleeding profusely, more than before. He stepped close until he was in front of me and then he crouched.

"Before I let you live however, I want to have some fun." He touched my wound and I cried out loudly. He hand drew designs of blood over my leg. I glared at him. "What do you want?" I asked him with left some of my left over energy.

"Well, you see I have a very special mission; I have to retrieve Fairies for a certain someone. He said I had to bring them to him alive. He didn't say what condition they had to be in." He pushed down on the cut and the pain intensified to the point where I almost passed out.

"You know, I'm a wizard too. A powerful one, you see if someone's bleeding, all I have to do is smell it and I can change the pain and sensitivity of that wound. It comes in handy on the battle field." He leaned into smell my neck.

"You smell so sweet. I can't wait to break you and watch you bleed." I glared at him.

"You'll …never …get away with it… Fairytail protects…its nakama." I heard someone calling my name and running towards us, but I was slowly slipping into unconsciousness.

"Unless, there is no Fairytail left, when every fairy is captured or killed, then there will be no one to save them, and no one to be saved. This isn't over Lucy." With that, he got up and disappeared. Then a ball of pink came into view. I smiled weakly and whispered two more words before falling completely into unconsciousness.

"Natsu, Firefly."


(Natsu's POV)

I ran ahead to deal with the five guys in front leaving Lucy to take care of the carriage. She could do it. She was strong enough.

I lifted my nose to follow the scent, they stunk and I was getting closer. I slid to a stop in the middle of the road and five guys came out. They were all buff and wore animal skins.

"Well, well, well. Who do we have here?" one of them asked.

"Does it really matter? He would be easy to capture, look at the mark, he's a fairy." Another one said.

"Yea your right, let's just get him, get the carriage, and leave." A third one said.

"Hey don't talk bad about Fairytail." I yelled out as I rushed forward. Then we engaged in combat. In a matter of minutes, I had them all unconscious and had tied them to trees. "You guys really shouldn't be talking so big. I mean, even ice stripper punches better than you guys."

I got up and dusted myself for injuries. None except for a small bruise on my shoulder above my mark. Oh well, satisfied I got up and headed towards the carriage. I smelled something that strongly resembled blood, then I smelled Lucy and she was in pain.

I dashed off at full speed towards the carriage. Hang on Luce, I'm coming. As I got closer, I smelled a strong magical presence. "Lucy?!" I cried out.

When I reached her, there were three big guys passed out and she was slumped against a tree with blood all over her left leg. On her right leg was a design that resembled a knife sticking out of a skull {cliché, I know but I couldn't think of anything else} a dark guild had done this to Lucy. I felt my blood boil.

"Natsu, Firefly." Lucy whispered smiling at me before falling into unconsciousness. What the? What was firefly? Ah, I have no time to worry about that now. I picked her up, bridal style, and carried her back to the carriage.

"Marisol?!" I called out. "Marisol?! Lucy's been hurt! I need to get her to a doctor right away!"

"I'm sorry Natsu. Lucy told us not to open the door unless we hear the magic word." What in the world is the magic word?! I don't have time for this!

"Open sesame?"

"Abra ca dabra?"

"Fairytail?"

I groaned in frustration. "Mr. Eneaus, open the door, Lucy's been hurt and I need to get her to s hospital right away." No answer. I turned around, Lucy still in my arms and ran and kicked the door open startling the people inside.

"We need to get Lucy to a hospital." I seethed, my bangs shadowing my eyes.

"Of course, right away. We'll take her to our friend's house, she's a nurse." Marisol replied. I set Lucy down in the carriage and stepped outside looking for danger. The carriage took off at full speed, me running along.

I charged at everything that got in our way: bandits, bears, trees, other carriages, although I took care not to harm the other carriages. Much.

The only thing running through my head was the fact the Lucy was hurt the b*st*rd that did that to her will pay. We arrived at a modest looking mansion with an iron gate. I busted through that and called for help.

Within seconds, people rushed out to see what the commotion was. Marisol came out looking for her friend.

"Christina, find Emily, now!" she yelled. An unhappy Sebastian and a worried Mr. Eneaus were holding Lucy between them and yelling for a cot. Angela was behind them fanning Lucy. There were gardeners and maids and servants running everywhere yelling for this and that. It was complete mayhem.

I felt a small hand slip into mine and looked down to see Arnold close to tears. "Mum's going to be alright, right?" He asked close to tears.

I felt myself calm down slightly. "Yea, it's just a cut. Luce is strong enough to survive a cut." I smiled at him as best as I could.

I didn't voice my concerns about how a simple cut could make Lucy past out or the fact that it was a dark guild that did this to her.


(Lucy's POV)

I groaned and slowly opened my eyes. The pain in my leg was practically gone, but I was so tired. I tried to sit up but I didn't even have enough energy to do that. I looked around the room I was in. It was a pretty big room with sunny yellow walls, three big windows that indicated it was around dusk and a shinny mahogany floor with matching double doors.

There was a vanity in the corner, and a drawer next to it. There was a lone table with a lone chair in front of the windows and a soft plush carpet in the center of the room. The big bed, which I suspect is what I'm laying on, is a four poster bad with warm blankets. I looked to my right and saw Arnold asleep in the blankets with me.

I was surprised and nearly shrieked, but he looked so cute just sleeping there with his hands tucked under his head. I smiled and looked pasted him. Then I shrieked.

I mean, I should've gotten used to this by now, but Natsu had crawled into bed behind Arnold, so basically it was us three on a king sized mattress.

Arnold woke up at my yelp and he rubbed his eyes with his fists. "Mum! You're awake!" He jumped up to hug me causing Natsu to fall onto the floor successfully waking him up.

"Umph!" He groaned from the floor. I giggled at this hugging Arnold back.

"Mum, you've been asleep for a really long time." Arnold said worriedly. "I thought if you didn't wake up soon, we wouldn't have time to go to the magic store." He looked up at me, tears threatening to fall.

"Yep, he's been here the whole time." Natsu stood up rubbing the back of his head.

"So have you Papa. You were even holding her hand most of the time. Then, when I went to use the bathroom, you fell asleep next to her and I crawled in between you guys." Arnold protested.

"S-Shut up." Natsu said and we both blushed.

Arnold pouted and I heard Natsu's stomach rumble. "How about we go get some dinner?" I asked them smiling.

"Yay!" Arnold was up in a snap and waiting for me and Natsu to get up.

"S-sure, let's go." Natsu said sheepishly rubbing the back of his neck. I threw the blankets off my legs and was a little surprised to see my cut bandaged up. I tried to stand, but fell, and Natsu caught me. Then he slipped my left arm over his shoulder and supported me. Arnold came back and held my right hand.

"Thanks honey." I bent down to kiss Arnold's forehead and he grinned at me.

"You too, honey." I kissed Natsu's cheek and we both blushed bright red. Me, more than him. I was waiting for him to make some wise crack and kill the mood or something, but he didn't which surprised me.

"No problem, sweetie." That caused us to blush even more. Did he just…He did…Is it only because I'm hurt? A thousand thoughts crossed my mind.

Arnold looked at our faces. "Mum?! Papa?! What's wrong?! Are you ok?! Are you sick?! Should I go find Aunt Emily?!"

"No! No! It's ok." I hurriedly replied.

"Oh. Ok then." And with that, the three of us made our way out of the bedroom and into the hallway in search of food.


Well, that was a bit more dramatic than I had anticipated. I'm sorry if it's a bit dark. My friends say I have a dark mind. XD

Don't worry, the next few chapters should hopefully be more light. The next chapter is also going to be about Natsu and Lucy, but I think might make it a little shorter.

Thanks to all my reviewers and CelestialScripter93 for helping me develop the story plot which will happen later on into the story.
