Authors Note!
Ohayo Minna-san! I have decided to post up the part of the story I have written soo far! I know it's not great and all.. and I don't expect it to be!

I hope you like it and please tell me if I should just ditch this horrible-excuse for a chapter and start again! Arigato! Feel free to tell me how to improve it! But no rude words please!
Chapter 3: Return Part 1
Natsu's P.O.V
" Minna we're home"
I turned around only to be greeted by a red-head and a man who had jet-black hair. "Erza! Gray! You're back!" I ran to them already forgotten Lucy. The whole of Fairy tail crowded around them and cheered, it took me a few tries to get to them until finally I decided to give up. I waited until everyone settled down to their seats and began to do whatever it was they were doing.
"Hey Flame brain!"
"who you calling Flame brain Stripper!"
"Pinky!"
"Ice Princess!"
"Dumb ass!"
"Exhibitionist!"
"Ash-for-brain!"
"Basta-"I was about to retort back until a voice cut in.
"Do I hear fighting!?" a menacing voice said. Me and Gray turned pale at the mere sound and proceeded to wrap our arms at each others shoulders,
"no ma'am this is just how we greet each other! Right...b-buddy?!" I smiled trying to convince the deadly woman in front of us.
"aye sir!" he replied in a happy-go-lucky voice
" I approve. Anyway where's Lucy?! I forgot to say goodbye to her before we left so I'm treating her to cake." Erza asked Mira. Suddenly I smelt faint traces of salt coming from Mira, with each breath I took it smelt more and more stronger obviously signalling that she's about to cry.
" Mira what's wrong?! Where's Lucy?!" Erza alarmed tone only made matters worse as Mira started crying even louder. Again Master popped up behind Mira from out of nowhere and began patting her back... or was it somewhere else?!.
"Don't cry Mira and there's no need to worry Erza, Lucy went on a solo-mission. So she won't be coming back for a while." Master said a bit too calmly. I saw Gray and Erza go pale with fear, worried for the sake of their celestial nakama.
" What Mission master?!" Erza and Gray screamed at the old man simultaneously. Master just walked behind the bar, not affected by their sudden outburst and took out a book that shows what missions each mage in the guild had been doing. All four of us followed Master.
" Ahh here she is... she took the job... of destroying a strong and illegal dark guild..." Master paled immediately and fainted, his soul floating out of his mouth and Mira resumed crying her eyes out...again.
" That's dangerous she might get hurt! I'll follow her!" all three of us screamed determined to save our precious nakama.
" No!" Master bellowed as he super sized into his gigantic form instantly drawing the attention of the whole guild towards us, " Lucy has been taking more dangerous missions than the one she is currently doing for the past few months! She is capable of taking care of herself when she needs to and when other people let her down!" I was stunned into silence, it felt like that last part was directed towards me..what does master mean by "when other people let her down?!"
" That can't be true!" Natsu did you go with Lucy on any dangerous missions lately?!" Erza questioned me, I recalled my past memories to see if Lucy and I went on any missions lately...blank...I hadn't been there for her at all...she could have gotten hurt...and I wasn't there to protect her... I hung my head in shame. " How could you Natsu?!" a stern yet feminine voice accused him, I looked up to see disappointed faces staring at me. I had never felt so vulnerable until now, why didn't you ask me to go with you Lucy?!. " If she had already taken missions as dangerous as this one then that means she can take care of herself!" Erza exclaimed trying to look at the bright side on the situation and also looking proud at her nakama's strength. I felt somehow relieved that she had gotten stronger so that she's less likely to get hurt.
Lucy's P.O.V
" I DON'T KNOW HOW TO SEND A THOUGHT PROJECTION!" I smacked myself at my stupidity while Laxus gave me a questioning look then a sudden realization hit me, I turned to Laxus grinning angelically while he sweat dropped at my heated gaze. He started walking away from me trying to do it casually n=but unfortunately for him I noticed, " Oh Laxus! You know how to do a thought projection right?!" I asked walking towards him.
" Yeah... so?!" he replied. My eye twitched, hadn't he heard what I yelled a few minutes ago. I sweat dropped.
" Soo can you teach me how to do it?!" I asked with such sad puppy dog eyes that he definitely can't say no to... at least in my opinion. He patted my head and then started laughing.
" Nice try Blondie, but I'm not teaching you how to. It's bad enough that I have to take care of you as but to teach you?! No way in hell that would ever happen!" he smirked then started walking away expecting me to follow like an obedient dog. Hell no! fine then I guess it's time for plan B!. Before he could notice I silently took his sound pod from his pocket.
" Laxus! If you teach me then I'll give you your sound pod back!" I grinned devilishly not even thinking about the consequences of my actions. He looked back and saw me twirling his precious sound pod not even caring if it falls and breaks. His shocked look was soon replaced by an angered one and then surprisingly he sent a huge lightning bolt towards me, I closed by eyes and waited for the dreaded impact while I unconsciously and accidentally dropped his sound pod. Surprisingly the only thing I felt was the warmth of a loving embrace holding me in a protective position, I slowly opened my eyes and saw that Laxus was hugging me. He jumped in front of his own attack just to save me, I was stunned.
" Why?!" I questioned, I could have asked a million other questions but why did I pick that one?!
" It's because I promised never to hurt my friends and family ever again... I never wanted to turn into the monster I was before...ever. I didn't want to hurt you...my body just acted on impulse...I'm sorry..." he held me tighter and I could feel his hot breath on my neck giving me pleasant shivers. " I hurt everyone in Fairy Tail... I thought I was the better master for fairy tail than Gramps... I just wanted to prove it... but I ended up hurting everyone...especially you Lucy... I'm so sorry... I can understand if you're afraid of me...even though I don't want that... I want you to feel safe and protected when you're around me not scared and frightened of me but... I guess that's my fault" he hung his head low in shame while I was stiff with shock. Laxus... apologized twice! the great Laxus Dreyar apologized to me! this would be like a dream come true if I wasn't filled with guilt... I made him think he's a monster... but he's not! I thought I was going through some tough times but compared to him my dilemma seems so tiny... I had comfort when I needed it but he had none... I had a family who took care of me for a while... but he didn't have a family any more... I felt like my world was worth nothing any more and that I was just a waste of space yet he got kicked out of his family and was viewed as a monster yet he stayed strong: not even a single tear was shed.
I returned the hug and cried on his shoulder, " I'm sorry! you wouldn't have felt like this if I hadn't taken your sound pod from you! You have every right to get mad at me! I'm sorry I didn't know that life was hard to you as well... I thought I was the only one that was suffering... I didn't think about how you felt... I didn't even think about the pain that you felt when you were excommunicated from the guild..." he chuckled then I remembered something...THE SOUND POD! "Laxus your sound pod!" I jumped from the bed and found his sound pod broken and lying on the ground into two pieces . " I'm so sorry Laxus! I'll pay you back!" I apologized at my carelessness but he just waved it off.
" You can't pay me back Blondie. Even with the money that you got you can't but don't worry!" his face remained stoic not betraying even a hint of emotion.
" I'm sorry! I'll try to fix it then!" I said determined to at least try and put it together again, he just chuckled and led me outside of the room and then the nurse gave me my original clothes I had on. I told Laxus not to peek and surprisingly he didn't... Mama, Papa I'm starting to like Laxus! I know you'll like him too Mama even though he can be a jerk he's still a very nice person!
Gomen Gomen if it's horrible! I tried my best and I guess it's good for the first half of a chapter it is 4 pages long... not bad..right?! tell me if I should just start again or if you want me to continue this chapter! Arigato! :) I'll try to update as fast as I can though I won't make any promises I have tests coming up and I have to do well at them so I have to study! Sayonara! :)
