Chapter 4
Hi guys, I'm here again with another chapter. This one takes place a week after Lucy's death and if you're wondering if Lucy actually died, then yes, yes she did. I do not own Fairy Tail.
Chapter 4
Lucy's POV
My vision went black and all I could feel was pain, this was the end of Lucy Heartfillia, I still wish I could have said my goodbyes to the guild. Then my vision started turning white, It felt like I was in a white room. "Lucy… Lucy my dear," I heard a familiar voice call out to me, a sweet and loving voice of a mother. But how was that possible, Layla Heartfillia was dead, unless-"Am I in Heaven?" I asked to the voice who I presumed was my mother's.
"Lucy listen to me, I don't have much time with you," said a blonde women in a beautiful white gown emerging from the whiteness, "Mom, is that you. I missed you so much," I said running to her and embracing her. She hugged me back, but after a second or two she broke the hug and put her hands on my shoulders, "Lucy, listen to me, you're a sweet, innocent, and young girl. You do not deserve such a harsh punishment such as death, so you will be given another chance" she said to me staring into my eyes with a loving look, "You're will also be given a new body, you're still contracted to you spirits but, I have a feeling you can't get them back now. Go visit Sensei Shaula in Honey wood village in the Western part of Fiore," mom said with a stern voice, "Tell her I sent you, If she doesn't believe you tell her 'The young of the wise are wiser with a teacher," she told me.
"Wait why do I have to go to Honey wood Village" I asked her curiously, " I'm running out of time with you, savor these last word as you move on to life 'Home is where the heart is," she said before drifting off into the whiteness.
"No! Don't go, I have so many questions! Why do I have to go to Honey wood Village? Who's Sensei Shaula?! Where is this place?! Am I dead?!" I screamed running towards her but she only kept drifting away.
"MOM" I screamed sitting up on the bed I was which I instantly regretted-I got a massive head ache. "Ow" I winced at the pain "Whoa, slow down, you look like you've been through a lot," said a smiling woman with short brown hair, who was also in a white uniform. I looked around my surroundings to see that I was in what looks like a Hospital room, "Where am I?" I asked rubbing my eyes," You're in the Magnolia Hospital, You were found in the east forest unconscious by some people passing by," She said bringing over a tray of food, "Now eat up, you look like you haven't eaten in days," she stated putting the tray of food on my lap. "How long have I been unconscious?" I asked politely after taking a bite of the sandwich on my plate. She stopped and looked at the ground, "About a week… but that's ok, you're awake now, right," she said cheerfully, I smiled at her cheerful personality.
"May I leave the hospital early," I asked the kind nurse, "Sure; we just need to sign you out first. Here follow me," she said walking out of the room. I took the tray of my lap and followed her out of the room. While we were walking through the halls I looked to my side and saw a window revealing the beautiful blue sky. I walked closer to the window to and stared at it. There displayed on the window was my reflection. But I looked different, I had wavy, red hair that went below my shoulders and my skin was tanner, I put my hand on the cool glass and saw that my guild mark was still where it always was. I was also shorter than before and in a beautiful white sun dress (A/N: Like the one Erza wore at the R-System). "Hey. You comin!" said the nurse who was a few meters ahead of me, "yeah sorry," I said running back to her side holding my hand to find the guild mark.
After she signed me out, she lead me outside, "If you need anything, feel free to come back, my name's Melody Conwell," she said with that same smile she had the whole time, "Thank you, Melody. Hey, can I ask you something?" I asked melody, "Sure, what is it?" she asked, "Can you tell me how to get to Honey Wood Village from here," I asked quietly, " The Honey Wood Village? Oh yeah I remember that place, I recommend taking the train, unless you want to spend 3 days walking to there, the train station is just down the street and around the corner," she explained, "Oh, thank you Melody, I'll remember you," I said as I started to walk towards the train station.
"But I need to get to Honey Wood Village sir," I pleaded to the ticket attendant, "Sorry ma'am, no jewels means no ticket," the ticket attendant said back to me. 'Ugh, how dare he' I thought stomping away in anger. I don't have any jewels with me and I can't go back to Fairy Tail, it just wouldn't be right. "LAST CALL FOR ALL PASSENGERS BOARDING THE TRAIN TO HONEY WOOD VILLAGE," I heard a booming voice yell through the station. Maybe- I could just- sneak on the train? Well, if I want to get to Honey Wood Village soon, sneaking on the train was my only option. I boarded the train, snuck into the cargo cart and hide some where no one would find me. This is working out better than I thought, my mind started to drift off to when I was last in the guild, I hope they'll forgive me, even if I didn't do anything wrong. I fell asleep with those thoughts in my head.
I was woken up a few hours later by the engine of the train stopping. "ATTENTION PASSENGERS, WE HAVE REACHED HONEY WOOD VILLAGE, THE TRAIN WILL BE DEPARTING IN 30 MINUTES." Ugh, that voice was really starting to tick me off, it was just so loud. I hoped off the train and took in the wonderful view of the village, it was almost sun set. The village mainly had houses made of wood and stone and the village was surrounding by towering mountains. I started walking through the village admiring every single aspect. Then I remembered why I was here. I looked around and saw a young man selling fresh fish at a stand; I bet Happy would love this. I walked up to the man, "Excuse me sir, do you know where I can find someone named Sensei Shaula," I asked politely, " Ahh, your one of those people. Miss Shaula is in that small house further ahead isolated from the rest of the town. But I'll warn you, Miss Shaula doesn't accept anyone who comes to her door step," he replied pointing to a small house in the distance which was separated from the rest of the village, "thank you," I said walking towards the cute house. "Anything for a beautiful, young woman," he said as I walked away, blushing at his compliment.
I wonder what he meant when he said I was one of those people, hmmm, guess I might never know. When I reached the house I took a deep breath and knocked on the door, "FOR THE LAST TIME, I WONT TRAIN YOU JUST SO YOU CAN STAND UP TO YOUR BULLIES," said an old voice that reminded me of Ole' cranky Porlyusica. I knocked again, "Miss Shaula, my mother sent me here, please open the door," I called out to the old cranky women on the other side of the door. I heard a lock switch and the door opened and revealed and rather small old women with a pointy hat that a sensei would wear, "And who would your mother be," she asked eyeing me suspiciously," Layla Heartfillia," I said looking down at the old women, "Your Lady Layla's daughter… I don't believe you," she said turning around about to close the door, "Wait! She sent me here, she told me to tell you something," I said rather loudly, "And what would that be," she asked turning around to face me also eyeing me again, "She said 'The young of the wise are wiser with a teacher," I asked calming down and looking at the ground. "Come in child, we must discuss this matter," she said walking in to the small house. I stared at her then followed her into the house which was surprisingly cozy. "So tell me child, If you are Lady Layla's child, why don't you look like her, and how did you get that message from her, she's been dead for years now," she asked.
"Well a week ago, I died," I said as her eyes widened, "after I died I went to heaven and saw my mother, Layla, and she told me I was given another chance at life and told to go see you; I don't know for what reason though, a week later I woke up in the hospital with a new body," I finished, "Your story seems unlikely, but if you are her daughter, what is your name?" she asked. I hesitated 'cause I didn't want to be called that name now, "Lucy, my name is Lucky Lucy Heartfillia," I said looking down.
She smiled and said, "Hello Lucy," I stared at her with shock, was it that easy to persuade her I was Lucy Heartfillia, not that I wasn't 'cause I obviously am. "Do you know why your mother sent you here," I shook my head, "You're here to be my student. Now get some sleep, we have a lot of training to do tomorrow," she said throw a blue blanket and a soft pillow at me. So my mother sent me here to train, she really is a good mother, It's too bad she's gone. I set the pillow and blanket on the couch and drifted off to sleep.
WOW, that was a long chapter, 1,754 words. Lucy's already reborn and training. If you liked Melody or that guy at fish stand, whose name is Philip Moore; I'll add them in later chapters. I hope you liked it, if you did, favorite, follow, and review for more.
