Hey guys!
Sorry for a late update. Anyways, Happy Chinese New Years! Let all the money fly into your household along with good health, happiness and luck.
It may be Chinese New Years (Lunar New Years) and I should be giving you good updates but today I'll be giving you one of both sides.
Should I give you good news or bad? Hmmm. Bad first.
The bad news is, I might be deleting this fanfiction. I'm going through writers block since I'm too occupied with my other fanfiction, and this is where the good news come in, even though 'Grant my Wish' will be deleted within the next month or so, I'll be making a new story which is -drumrolls - NaLu once again. This time, it'll be much more romantic and sweet.
Please follow or favourite me to get updated with the new fanfiction that will be coming out soon. I may be posting it up when I finish writing an additional 2 chapters to avoid writers block.
- Celestial Hime
"The fact that you've called Loke an annoying feline is something undeniable" Lucy said as she walked up to them. "Shadow Devastation!" Sakura cried out as she thrusted out a black ball out to Lucy using her palms. Lucy stood there with her eyes closed and allowed the black ball go through her, leaving her with no injuries in return. "Feel free" Natsu's advice whispered to her through her mind. Lucy slightly nodded in response as she opened her eyes slowly, revealing her confidence through her warm brown eyes. Yes, she'll protect her family's name and all of her friends. Even if her life was in danger, she'll do whatever she could to protect them. This was the power of friendship.
"Celestial Dragon's Roar!" Lucy roared as she released out a powerful beam of stars that directly hit the two opponents. "Impossible!" Ayame gasped. Lucy inhaled sharply since she's still new into her new given power, but still, she continued to fight on. Quickly, Lucy jumped up into the sky, stopping in front of the frozen timer. Focusing, she faced her palm out which was facing towards the clock.
"Starlight Breaker!" Lucy shouted as her palms glowed in a warm yellow light. When she was ready, a ball of light shot out of her palms, hitting the clock which made it moving again.
"Pull out your katana..." A voice echoed through her mind. "Who are you?" Lucy questioned to herself. "I am you and you are me" The voice replied in perfect harmony. "Who exactly are you?" Lucy questioned. "Another you in another world" She answered without any thoughts of ways that she could answer Lucy. "Aha..." Lucy casually said. The timer was ticking quick since it was trying to catch up with the current time. "You all have only 30 seconds to defeat your opponents" Fairy announced through the built-in speakers which hung ontop of the stadium. Lucy who was panicking, looked down to Sakura and Ayame who was slowly getting up. Thinking about what the mysterious person told her, she dived down back onto the ground as she pulled out a katana from the air unconsciously. Quickly, she ran over to the two girls and placed the sharp blade next to their throats. "Please stay down or I'll have to hurt you" Lucy asked, holding onto her summoned katana tightly.
"Tsk. Do you think I'll just back out?!" Sakura grunted as she stood up, allowing the blade to go into her shoulder. "Shadow's Nightmare!" Ayame said as she grabbed Lucy's leg which soon had purple goo on it. Lucy flinched at the fearsome goo that was stuck onto her, and scared, she attempted to kick it away with all her might, but unfortunately, it didn't work. "Use Starlight Breaker again..." The same voice echoed again.
Trusting the voice, Lucy did what she had ask, "Starlight Breaker!" Lucy cried out as she attacked her leg using the ball of light. Luckily, it worked and Lucy was smiling in relief, "Now attack!" The voice boomed. Nodding, Lucy closed her eyes and focused all her energy on the last attack.
"10 seconds left..." Gray muttered.
"9 seconds left..." Erza hesitantly noted.
"8 seconds..." Wendy cried out in worry.
"7 seconds. Come on Lu-chan.." Levy said.
"You can do it Luce...I know you can" Natsu mumbled to himself.
"Celestial Dragon's Wing Attack!" Lucy yelled as she attacked the two girls which made them scream as they attempted to block themselves from the upcoming attack.
"The battle is now over! Lucy Heartfilia wins!" Fairy announced out to the cheering crowd of students. Lucy was tired. The magic that Natsu gave her wore off when the battle was over. Using too much power, Lucy was panting in uneven paces, she could hear the faint cheering as her eyes blurred out her crystal-clear vision, slowly, her eyes closed shut and soon she collapsed onto the ground with no energy to move. The last words that she ever heard was 'Lucy'.
- Time Skip/ A Few Days Later -
Lucy groaned as she struggled to get up, the pain was indeed killing her body, begging for her to lay down again. "Ouch.." Lucy muttered under her breath. Being able to get up slowly, her eyes caught attention to a sleeping pink-haired person who slept on the chair. "Don't lose Luce..." The boy muttered under his breath as he adjusted his position on the comfy chair. "You make me sound like I'm going to die" Lucy said as she quietly got out of the bed and into the bathroom.
"Who was that person?" Lucy questioned as she bathed in her bathtub. "There are so many questions I'd like to ask..." She quietly said to herself.
Stressed out, she sunk her body into the pink-coloured water. 'If only life was once it used to be...Then I would have enjoyed it better' Lucy thought. Quickly losing her breath, Lucy's head quickly shot right up, out of the water, allowing her to breathe just in time. "Life is so difficult" Lucy complained to herself.
Once upon a time, a girl named Lucy Heartfilia died from misery. She was unable to save her loved ones, she was unable to save herself. When time passes, she'll experience something she'd never had expected, 'What is it?' Lucy asked to herself as she waltzed through the dark forest, "Tell me what I'd experience?' She asked once again. 'My child...Your destiny awaits' The voice hummed. Where o' where did poor little Lucy go? Where is she hiding? What is she seeking?
"I know this voice..." Lucy said to herself as she got out of the bathtub. Quickly, she got changed and followed the voice - She wanted to know who the owner of the voice was. It was familiar, such a calming and gentle voice. Lucy wanted to know and she needed to know fast.
Following the voice, she didn't know that her body was completely taken over. She couldn't control what was hers. She knew that her body, was unconsciously taking her to the voice. Oh she wished that she could have the same voice as hers.
My counterpart Lucy. Why are you in such a complicated state? Why did you form such a contract with a demon? Do you not know that he'll take your life some day?
Poor Lucy...If she was only in a fairy tale then she would have gotten a happy ending...What is your future? Where would it lead you? Unleash your power. Be yourself. Be free like a fluttering butterfly...Wait. They only last for a month...Ahem. Be free like a soaring eagle. What is your wish Lucy? Didn't you wish for a world to follow your rules? Didn't you want to be like god himself? Wish for it Lucy...Wish for it to happen.
"What is my wish?" Lucy muttered out. Once she reached a hill, there stood a sakura tree - It's pink petals fluttering down onto the rich, green grass. Lucy can feel her body getting back under her control, once she was, she saw a woman who looked exactly like her. The lady's golden blonde hair fluttered along with the peaceful wind, "Who are you?" Lucy asked. "Who am I? I am you and you are me. I am your counterpart. The princess of the dragons, Lucy Heartfilia, the wife of Natsu Dragneel" Counterpart Lucy said.
"Princess of the dragons? Married to Natsu? My counterpart?" Lucy asked. "Yes. Well...I'm 4 years older than you but it doesn't really matter" Counterpart Lucy said.
"Why are you here? Is there something happening in your world?" Lucy questioned. She was worried about her counterpart, she's scared that something was happening and that was the reason she's here.
"Well. I'm fine and my world is safe, but your world isn't" Counterpart Lucy replied quickly. "What are you talking about?" Lucy questioned once more. She's now really confused. "I'm the dragon princess. A Dragon Slayer who can control all aspects of Dragon Slaying magic. I recently checked your future since I had a feeling that something may happen. Here, let me show you what I mean. Touch this tree. This tree is where I'll be whenever you need me, I'll help you as much as possible. Touch it" Counterpart Lucy instructed.
Lucy listened to her counterparts instruction and slowly she placed her palm on the tree - She could feel the warmth from the tree transferring to her body. It made her feel calmed and relaxed, slowly, she closed her eyes, and let her body drift along with the breeze.
The screaming of citizens made the relaxed Lucy shot her eyes wide open, "What's going on?!" Lucy shouted out. "Shh. Calm down Lucy. This is your future...Look, there you are" Counterpart Lucy pointed out.
Lucy's eyes were wide in fear - The screaming and bloodied people, the buildings crumbling into pieces, children screaming out for their dead parents, it was horrifying...It was like a nightmare, a nightmare that can make a person get a heart-attack within the next hour.
What made Lucy tear up was the limp bodies that laid around the future Lucy. Their bodies were in a pool of their own blood, they were lifeless. At the front of their bodies stood the future Lucy. Scared and petrified, you could hear her small whimpers as she pulled Natsu close to her. Her body herself was severely injured while Natsu had blood all over his body. He was protecting her to the very end...But wait...There were other people who looked like Natsu's kind. The bat wings and demon tail...They were demons as well. A man was hugging Levy's bloodied body while another was standing in front of Erza, saying, "Don't leave me Erza...I need you to live".
"Counterpart me...Who are those people?" Lucy asked as she pointed over to the unfamiliar people. "I cannot tell you them but I can tell you that they're the same as Natsu" Counterpart Lucy said.
Their conversation was cut off from a loud screech. Quickly looking up, Lucy saw her two adopted sisters fighting against someone else. A woman that had white hair, who had flames covering her foot. Her expression was scary, dark and mysterious. There was one thing that Lucy could read out of her lips, 'Die you selfish beings'
A light suddenly blinded the two girls and slowly, the girls adjusted their eyesight to see what was happening below.
There on the ground stood Lucy who was in the middle of the pillar of light. Her eyes were shut closed as she let her body levitate, soon her clothes transformed - It was the same outfit that the counterpart Lucy was wearing. A frilly gown that reached down to her knees, a tiara on her head. The only difference was that counterpart Lucy was wearing was heels and that her dress was longer. The future Lucy however, wore laced ballerina flats that laced around her calves, stopping to her knees.
The fighting stopped when the pillar vanished, allowing the future Lucy to land back onto the ground where the impressed Natsu stood. With a simple kiss between the two, the future Lucy grew pure white wings that resembled an angel and flew up into the sky. "Let all the darkness fade away from the light!" The future Lucy chanted as she raised her right hand up into the sky where a pure white ball grew ontop of her palm. "Starlight Breaker!" She calmly said as she tucked the ball into a soft embrace. The future Lucy slowly tucked her legs inwards, as if she was cuddling the ball.
"That's more than enough" The counterpart Lucy stated as she clicked her fingers, returning them back to Lucy's world. "What was that..." Lucy muttered, her eyes couldn't believe what she was seeing...Her mind couldn't progress everything. "My dear...That was your future" The counterpart Lucy said. "My future? Please tell me more about it!" Lucy begged. "Unfortunately I cannot tell you any more. This is your future. I was only here to tell you about my vision. If you can excuse me...I need to get back to my two children and my husband" Counterpart Lucy excused as she vanished into thin air.
"Why does it seem so complicated..." Lucy said as she slowly broke down under the cherry blossom tree. Her mind was messed up, she couldn't understand a thing. It was like being a child who just watched a wild M rated action movie. She couldn't think...She was confused.
"LUCE!" A voice cried out which made Lucy surprised. She didn't respond though, she curled up into a ball and continued to cry with all her might. She somehow felt relieved that Natsu had found her, but another side of her told her that she wasn't happy because she wanted to be alone for a while. "Lucy...Where have you been? You made me worried!" Natsu stated as he sat down next to the crying Lucy.
Lucy suddenly flinched at the sudden warmth that a pair of arms had given her. Natsu's arm were wrapped around the curled up Lucy, "Am I such a great boyfriend or what? Embracing his girlfriend when he's needed most" Natsu cheered as he shuffled around, Lucy's body was between his spreaded out legs, back to chest and a warm embrace was shared. Natsu placed his forehead on Lucy's back while still within the hug, "Is it something difficult to tell me?" Natsu calmly asked.
The blonde didn't reply, instead, she nodded her head as she sniffled her nose a few time, "I'm fine Natsu...I just need time to 'process' everything" Lucy croaked out quietly. At times like this, Lucy felt secured, protected, she knew that she felt safe within her boyfriend's warm hug, and that was what she was needed. 'BATHUMP!' Lucy's thoughts were suddenly cut off by her heart. 'What is this...feeling?' Lucy questioned to herself through her mind.
"My dear Lucy...That's what you call...'Love'" The counterpart Lucy chimed. "Love?..." Lucy muttered which was inaudible enough for Natsu to hear.
"Did you say something Luce?" Natsu asked. Lucy shook her head side to side.
"You know Lucy.." Natsu shuffled back and helped Lucy turn to face him, "Look at me Luce" Natsu said firmly, holding onto her shoulders so she couldn't go back into her ball position. Nodding, Lucy slowly looked up to gaze upon the person who her Counterpart had just said, 'Her love'. Quickly enough, Lucy's face flushed and soon she looked away which made Natsu get angry. "Lucy...Look at me" Natsu said.
Again, she looked up, this time, she tried to hold back her blush. "What is it Natsu?" Lucy managed to ask. "You know...I can make you feel at ease" He stated. The blonde raised a brow, "How?" She asked. "Just wish for it. Wish more me to comfort you" Natsu instructed. "Wish for it?" Lucy asked once more. "That's right" Natsu grinned, reassuring her that everythings going to be alright. "I wish for my boyfriend to comfort me?" Lucuy wished.
Natsu smiled at her, "Your wish is at my command. Now, close your eyes, I'll make you feel relaxed" Natsu said. Nodding, Lucy closed her eyes and to her surprised, Natsu slowly placed his lips against hers which made her face heat up as her eyes hot opened. 'Oh my gosh. I'm kissing Natsu!' Lucy thoughts were going insane.
The pink-haired demon had his eyes closed as he kissed her and soon her eyes fluttered closed, returning the kiss back to him, 'His lips are softer than expected' Lucy thought to herself. A few seconds later, they had to break the kiss for air. Natsu smiled at her before pulling her into a hug, "Whenever you need me the most. Just wish for me and I'll come flying by your side in no time" Natsu romantically said.
"Thank you Natsu...Now let's go home" Lucy thanked. As she got up, she got picked up by Natsu, holding her bridal style, "There's no way that I'm letting my girlfriend walk through those trees again. Now, lets go home and have dinner" Natsu said as his wings grew, flapping them as they slowly levitated.
