Chapter 2 You Don't Faze Me
Lucy's point of view:
I woke up to light streaming down onto my face. " Ahhhh good morning world!" I said with a smile on my face. I got up and grabbed my keys off of my desk and yelled, "Open thee gate of Nikora! Plue!" Plue popped up on my carpet shaking like he always does. "Good morning plu!" Plue replied with "Pun puuuuu" I smiled and grabbed him so we could go and take a bath together. While I was washing up, Plue was playing around with bubbles and splashing water I laughed and put a bunch of bubbles on Plue's head. After our bath I got ready to leave for the job that I had taken yesterday. I wore a baby pink tube top with a frilly black mini skirt with gold heels. I went up to my floor length mirror and smiled at my outfit.
"Well Plue, it was good seeing you this morning, you cheered me up a lot! You may go back home" I said with a smile. Plue saluted me then disappeared. I grabbed some money off of my desk and started my walk towards the train station. I bought my ticket for Heartspirt, that's where the village was. It would take 5 hours to get there. During the train ride I took a nap. When I woke up the train was just stopping.
When I got out of the train, I stared in awe at the beautiful scenery. It reminded me of old European houses and such. There were beautiful trees ad flowers everywhere. I walked over to a rose bush and smelled the purple roses. I started my search for the client's house. After about 30 minutes, I walked up to a spectacular mansion. It was slightly smaller than the Heartfilia mansion though. I knocked on the door and a maid answered. "Hello I'm here about the job you sent out" "Oh yes I'll take you to Mr. Peterson right away" The maid said. " Thank you very much" I said kindly. I walked through a few entrances and finally into a parlor. There was a man about 45 or so sitting in a chair. As he saw me he smiled and greeted me.
"Hello their...?" "Lucy" I said. "Ahhh Lucy. I heard you have excepted my job request." Mr. Peterson said." Yes sir, I've come to help you with your problem." I said with a smile. " Very well then, all you have to do is walk to the forest and the monster should come out within a few minutes." "Thank you Sir. I'll see you in a few hours!" I said while I waved.
I walked for 24 minutes until I came to the edge of the forest. It looked so beautiful. I started to walk in. When I was about 40 feet inside of the forest I sat and waited for the monster to show up. Within 5 minutes I heard medium sized footsteps walking towards me. I got up and readied myself with a battle stance. When the monster appeared, it looked at me then growled. It was the color of carrots, it also had 3 eyes and looked pretty creepy. The monster started to run towards me and I yelled " Gate of the bull I open thee Taurus!" Taurus showed up with hearts in his eyes saying " Great body as always Ms. Lucy!" Enough joking around Taurus and kick this monsters ass!" Taurus ran and hit the monster with his axe, but then the monster grabbed him and threw him into a tree. "Taurus go back!" I yelled. "Sorry I couldn't help Ms. Lucy." The monster looked at me and started to advance on me. 'Oh boyyy I thought.' I yelled " Gate of thee scorpion, Scorpio!" "Hello Lucy" Scorpio said. I nodded at him and he started to attack the monster. Scorpio beat it up pretty good but didn't defeat it. " Thank's Scorpio, you can go back now." He then disappeared.
The monster was pretty pissed at me by now so he started to run towards me. "Ahhhhh shit! I was not expecting this!" I yelled as I ran more into the forest. While I was running I cam upon a river. Then I yelled " Gate of the mermaid Aquarius!" " Long time no see Lucy" she said with a smirk. "Yeah yeah I know, now sweep away that monster with your wave!" Aquarius yelled and spun creating a wave. The giant wave had so much water that the monster drowned. " Woohoo! Good job Aquarius, you can go back now. Thank you!" I yelled while she disappeared. I did a little dance because I was happy then yelled " Hah! Take that Natsu! I killed the monster without your help! Suck it bitch!" I did a little kick then fell down onto the ground laughing. I then picked myself up and started my walk to the clients house to collect my jewels.
Unknown to Lucy, she was being watched.
Unknown person/peoples point of view:
As I was walking through the forest with my partners I heard yelling. " Did you hear that?" I said looking around. "Yes I did, it came over from that way." My partner replied pointing to the left. "Lets go and check it out!" We then started to run towards the noise. When we came upon the scene we jumped up into the trees so that we couldn't be seen. I saw a girl with blond hair and a smocking hot body take out a key and yell " Gate of the mermaid, I open thee Aquarius!" Her spirit and her then had a conversation and Aquarius then attacked the monster. There was a massive wave that took out the monster. When I looked at where it should of been it was dead. Aquarius then left the Blondie.
I looked over to the chick and saw her do a cute little dance then yell " Hah! Take that Natsu! I killed the monster without your help! Suck it bitch!" Hahaha who the hell is this chick? She's cute and funny. Then I looked at he right hand and saw a pink Faiy Tail mark. I looked closely at her face and realized it was Blondie aka Lucy Heartfilia! What is she doing out here all by herself? Blondie then kicked the air and fell onto the ground from laughing. " Well it looks like she's having fun" I muttered. I was about to call out to her but my partner stopped me. "What are you doing?" I asked. "Don't let her know we are here. She might not want to see us after what happened the last time we saw each other." my partner whispered. I nodded my head yes and watched her smile. 'The fairy is actually kind of cute' I thought to myself. She then got up and started to skip out of the forest like a little kid. Haha what a little kid man! "Let's get out of here, we still have to go to Magnolia to do that job remember?" My partner stated.
Lucy's point of view:
After the train ride back to Magnolia I walked over to the guild. 'Come on Lucy. You can do it. These people aren't your friends of family anymore. They don't care about you at all. Suck it up and put on your poker face' I thought to myself. I braced myself and walked into the guild. When I walked in everyone turned to look who it was. When they saw it was me they all sneered and turned away. I didn't say anything to anyone until I walked up to the bar where all of my actual friends were. Laxus look up and smiled then welcomed me back. I ordered my usual from Mira then lightly conversed with my friends. I could tell they knew something was up with me, but they didn't ask because they knew I wouldn't say anything. I finished my shake and made my way to masters room.
I walked up the stairs and knocked on his door. I then heard a muffled "Come in!" I walked in and master looked and me then smiled. Once he noticed how I didn't have a smile he panicked. "What's wrong my child?" Master asked. " I'm sorry to tell you this, but I want to leave the guild master." I replied bluntly. " What?! Why do you want to leave my child?!" Master asked shocked. "Because everyone here except for a few people, Wendey, Carla, Laxus, Happy, Levy, Gajeel, and Mira are the only people who even talk to me here. And to make matters worse, Natsu, Gray, and Erza kicked me off of the team saying is was 'to weak'. So I'm going away to train for a few years. I don't know if or when I'll ever be back." Master had a shocked face " I'm so sorry my child. I didn't know. If this is what you really wish for then so be it." Master grabbed my right and erased my mark. I smiled a sad smile to him then walked out of his office.
As I walked down the stairs, I knew the worst was to come. I still needed to say good-bye to my remaining friends. I had thought before about writing each of them a letter but then thought against it.
I walked up to them, and they all faced me. "Hi guys" I gave a weak smile. They then knew something was really wrong. "What's the matter Lu-chan" Levy asked. I looked down then right back up. "I'm so sorry guy's but I'm leaving the guild." They all gasped, I even heard gasps from around the room. I then showed them my right hand, the hand without the mark. Wendy and Levy immediately started crying begging me not to go. "I'm sorry guy's but it's my time to leave. I'll see you all again someday." I walked up to every single one of them and gave them a hug. I looked a Laxus and even he was starting to cry. " Oh don't cry you big goof" I said, " I'll see you all again, this isn't something to get so sad over." I then started my walk out of the guild. Chin held high and shoulders back. No one is going to faze me this time. It was dead quiet as I walked out of the guild, I didn't turn around either.
As I was walking home I tired my best to not cry. But it was useless. When I got back to the house. I called Vrigo to pack up my house. By the time she was done, I had already talked to my landlord and told her this was my final good bye, forever. She cried and gave me a big hug and told me to be safe. When I walked out of the building I turned and stared at it. I then walked towards the train station. Not regretting my choice, not even once.
