Chapter one.
Lucy ran towards her house. What had just happened? The images replayed over and over in her mind, making the tears run faster. What had she done wrong?
Fumbling though her pocket, she pulled out the bronze key and pushed it into the lock and twisted it. Without hesitation she locked the door behind her and sank with her back against it. Her frame shook from the sounds she prevented herself from sobbing.
Getting her Fairy Tail stamp revoked was one thing, but having the entire guild throw her out was another. The memory of Erza's as well as Natsu's faces sent her into a panic stricken state. Disgust and Anger. No matter how hard she's tried to look deeper into their eyes the scarier it became to realise the truth.
They'd accused her of destroying Lisanna's home and killing Elfman. She didn't even know where Lisanna lived! And why would she take the life of one of her precious family members?
She brought her hands to her face and eventually gave into sleep.

The next morning was no greater than the day before. A letter lay beside her, with the words Lucy Heartfilia printed on it. Shakily, Lucy opened it and began reading.
Dear Miss Lucy,
Due to your inability to work and pay your debt for this house. You are being evicted and have two days to move. Any items left behind will be sold.
From,
Mrs. Tailortin.
Bitterly, she tossed the piece of paper to the side and went to her drawers to grab the pouch of many she'd saved for a rainy day. Well guess what? Right now it was a fucking storm!

The train's railway tracks were in front of her as she waited for the next way out of Magnolia. The grief and pain from before had shifted to anger and remorse towards the guild that claimed to protect their family. A sour expression spread across her face as she pictured her friends. No, scratch that. Strangers.
The sound of an approaching vehicle was evident and Lucy stared with blank, brown eyes as it whizzed past and came to a stop.
Passengers stepped off as she stepped on. Finding refuge in an empty compartment, she gazed out of the window at the passing scenery. It was clearly evident that no matter how hard she would try, nothing could amount to belonging somewhere.
Her eyes dropped low and she immediately fell into a sweet dream of her old family.
XxXxXx
Lucy heard movement around the compartment. She listened carefully to the breathing and ruled it was a girl. Slowly, she picked her head up from the train window and looked to the person opposite her.
The girl had long midnight blue hair that become lighter as it reached the tips, too bad it was slung into a pony tail otherwise it would have looked beautiful. Her skin was a ghost white with freckles that dusted her nose and top half of her cheeks.
With a groan, Blue hair's eyes connected with Lucy's. They both had similar expressions. Regret and despair. Maybe choosing the train was a good idea. They both thought.
"I'm Lucy" The blonde introduced first, holding out her slightly tanner hand.
"Onix"
Lucy smiled as Onix copied the action, "There are only two reasons for a girl like you to look like that"
"Hm? And what are they?" Lucy asked curiously to her new friend-to-be.
"One. Boyfriend has just cheated on you" Onix started, studying the blonde's face in order to see if she was correct, "And two. Someone had just betrayed you"
Lucy cracked a small laugh, "Aren't they the same thing?"
Onix lit up at her statement and looked close to an animation, "That's what I said! You'll be surprised how many people say they aren't" She pouted, folding her arms.
Lucy had to admit. The way Onix expressed herself was cute, "So, where are you getting off?"
Lucy looked back into a pair of black eyes, "I really don't know"
Onix seemed to take her statement the exact opposite way Lucy thought she would, "Why don't you come with me? I'm getting off in two stops?"
Our favourite blonde looked shocked. She barely knew this girl, and here she was, inviting her to join her journey.
Regretfully, Lucy recalled that it had been that way with Natsu as well. A stab of depression hit her heart making her flinch. Onix saw her reaction and immediately added; "You don't have to if you don't want to! I mean I'd like to at least have one person with me. But it's okay, really. It was silly to ask"
"No, no!" Lucy replied, "I just thought of the reason why I'm here, that's all. I would love to come with you Onix"
The Bluette screamed with joy and jumped on the blonde, "Thank you!"
The two rambled on aimlessly about their previous lives and homes when they hit the crucial fact, why did they both leave?
"You first" Lucy gestured with her hand. Somewhere between JadesField and Magnolia they had ended up sitting next to each other with their luggage on the other seat.
"Well," Onix pressed her index finger to her plump, black lips "As you can see, I'm not the brightest looking girls, in choice of my hair and clothes and make up. I'm a Hex Dispeller. You give me an item and I can twist it. You give me a person, and I can kill them. My parents are in charge of DaneTimes Industries"
Lucy turned to look at her new friend, "They make jewellery right?"
Onix gave her a toothy grin, like Natsu would, "Correct! And they had a thing about magic. Either it was good, old fashioned healing like my mom or super strength like my dad, and since I got neither and inherited...this..." She spoke it as if it were a disease, "I was isolated. No one knew about me. I couldn't leave my room and when I did, I'd be punished"
Onix rolled up her black and white sleeve to show a red line that ran from her wrist to her elbow, "That I got three years ago, trying to see my baby brother for the first time" She explained.
Lucy felt tears threatening to fall and yet the girl beside her had not stopped smiling.
"Eventually, my parents went to far. They refused to acknowledge me, refused to feed me. So I left. Along with their money of course" She winked at me and pulled on the twin bracelets hanging on her hand, "Now you"
"Mine story isn't that bad" I said feeling nervous. My problem compared to hers was a tiny fleck of dust on a painting.
"If it made you leave, it's just as bad" Onix replied.
Lucy tucked a loose strand of blonde hair out of her brown eyes, "About four days ago, I belonged to Fairy Tail"
"Their one of the best guilds in the world right?" Onix asked eagerly.
"Yeah, I thought so as well. You see, I was lucky I got in. I had help from a boy I met a while back called Natsu and we became really close" I felt my face heating up from mentioning him.
"You li-ke~ him" Onix teased.
"Oh, shut up!" I replied playfully, "Anyway. You see about a year ago we rescued a girl Natsu used to be friends with Lisanna whom everyone thought was dead" Onix nodded, showing she was keeping up, "And then it happened. I was talking to her older sister when I heard Master Makarov yelling. Lisanna had said that I had attacked her house and killed her older brother, Elfman"
"Did you?" Onix gasped.
"No! I still don't even know where Lisanna lives! And why would I kill one of my family members?" I asked.
The Bluette looked confused, "Then, aren't you Lisanna's sister?"
"Oh! No, everyone at Fairy Tail is a family. We're not actually related" Lucy explained smiling at her new friends confusion. Onix gave a hm sound and Lucy continued, "I wasn't allowed to say anything. I was held down as Makarov removed my Fairy Tail mark and I was kicked out. I went home and was evicted because I wasn't apart of their guild anymore so...here I am"
Onix gave Lucy a hug and looked her straight in the eye, "We're gonna take them down! I promise"
"Thanks" The blonde smiled before a question hit her, "Hey, what are we doing going to RavinsCreak?"
Onix stood up since the train was slowing down, meaning it was time to depart, "Oh! I didn't tell you?"
Lucy shook her head.
"I'm starting up my own guild!"
So, whatcha think? It probably sucked a little, but hey! I had fun writing it! :D Also If you wouldn't mind sending in some OC's for Onix's Guild I'd really appreciate it.
