Me, Myself, and I are holding hands. We promise to work harder and to do are best. My team (full of myself) would like to thank the wonderful people for reviewing me, following me and so on.

Disclaimer: I do not own Fairy Tail, I wish I did, but I DON'T! (=_=")/

Lucy's POV

I breathed in and out and thought of various other things to distract me and composed myself. I reminded myself that I was in Fairy Tail and I was safe now.

I reached Mira and tapped her shoulder. She turned directing a huge smile at me before asking what I needed.

"Hey Mira, I was just wondering if you knew about Natsu and Lisanna?"

"Huh, what are you talking about? If you're talking about the mission then I already know."

"Oh! So you don't know. I guess I should just wait until you find out."

"What do mean. Lucy! Tell me now, what's going on?"

'Haha she took the bait, of course she did. This will keep her busy for at least half the day.' "Oh you know, Natsu's confessing during the mission and aren't they coming back soon. I wonder who will congratulate them. It's already a given she's going to say yes."

She squealed so loud, I thought I was going to go deaf. After squealing she promptly fell to the ground unconscious. I dragged her to the infirmary and laid her on the bed before leaving a note on the tableside that Kinana can take over today while she plans whatever she's planning for the coming couple.

I walked down to the bar before I felt stares. It was Gajeel, Laxus, and the Thunder Legion themselves.

Gajeel was the first to speak, "How the hell were you able to do that. How long will she be out? Why'd she faint? Will that be enough to distract her?"

"Calm down Gajeel, Jeez. I just told her about Natsu and Lisanna. She'll be out for at least a good hour and by the time she wakes up she'll be distracted planning for their congratulatory party. Kinana will take over for her for a while."

Laxus boomed out laughed, followed by Bickslow then Gajeel. Ever just huffed, "Of course, so typical of her." Freed just had an amused smile.

"Great planning Lucy, but what about Droy? Are you sure this note will suffice….."

"Don't question me Gajeel. Just you wait; once it works you'll marvel at my genius." Gajeel scowled at my comment before heeding my word. I laughed but was interrupted when one of my keys jingled, Cancer. It's was two minutes before seven. He must already be done.

"Sorry guys, I have to go now. See you around."

There were surprised by the sudden close off but nodded anyway. They contemplated over what was going on with Lucy. Something was wrong with the guild's light, of course there worried.

I went straight home. I rushed to the door. I had to take care of the scars now, Ever and the others already saw it. I'm getting worse. I'm starting to have panic attacks again. I need to calm down. Its fine, not a lot of people saw and these people were not one to talk.

Virgo appeared in the familiar flash with the cream in her hands. I turned before cautiously lifting my shirt and bra. I really didn't like it when others saw my scars. It makes me feel vulnerable. Virgo hesitantly rubbed the cream while also rubbing my back. She sensed my stress and exhaustion from the earlier panic attack.

I was still on edge and I needed to calm down. I breathed out and hummed a lullaby to calm myself. Lyre would help me but I called her already this month. I hummed the melody of the River Flows in You by Yiruma. Mama would always play that song on the piano for me. Mama says I have a good singing voice so when I was learning how to play instruments as part of aristocratic training; she had a teacher give me singing lessons. I actually stopped singing after I ran away just trying to forget my past…..

"Princess, I'm done. Punishment time?"

"No, Virgo….just go back please and thanks for your help."

"Anytime princess." She disappeared, which left me alone. I can't stand being alone. I changed into my training clothes which consisted of a pink sports bra and black shorts with shoes. She tied her hair into a high pony tail and headed back to the guild to meet Erza.

I entered the guild through the back and headed towards the gym which was only one part of the training grounds. Time to meet hell again, it helps though. The 'devil's training' has already increased my physical strength exponentially. My body was already fit and toned.

What I don't understand, is why I can't tell anybody about anything about my training. Capricorn was the one who suggested. Although Erza is training me, she's only part of my training. You'd be surprised of what I found and did in the duration of 2 months…..

"Lucy! Let's start." She walks through the door yelling. I was already stretching. I did a spilt and a bridge. I didn't pay attention to the others in the gym or the bench. I didn't even notice who was who. I was going to need it for what was to come.

"Let's warm up." Erza equipped into her heaven's wheel armor. She moved farthest from me. A blindfold was over my eyes. I crouched in preparation. Five swords had started falling towards me in a rapid pace from different locations. I sensed the objects location and ran into a series of flips avoiding all swords before swords were surrounding me. I did an aerial before approaching the direction of Erza and spinned away from fast approaching swords she sent me to prevent me from going close. I double flipped over head, hit behind her knees, and kicked her legs under her before my fingers lingered seconds away from her weak point on her neck that would have incapacitated her. I was too fast for her to respond.

I took the blind off and looked at the massive swords scattered across the field. I think we went overboard.

We continued you with basic exercises but there's a twist. Erza's version gives you pain like no other if you're not use to it. I endured it for 2 months. I think I deserve an award for that. For example, when she makes me do pushups not only does she make me do 100, she puts weights on my back and on an elevated area. If I stop, then she makes me do 50 more.

After we were done with exercises, we started working on magical weapons. Erza asked me to choose upon weapons other than my whip for variety. She had tested my ability for which weapon class suited me best. We found out that I was suited for long distance weapons such as archery or a spear but not limited to that so she trained me through all sorts of long distance weapons. She said I was a natural at long distance weapons.

Today we were going to practice again with archery and daggers. The weapons I borrowed from her were not normal one but magically induced weapons for holders like me. I don't know why or where she got them but I didn't question her.

First was archery. She passed me a bow. I got in position and concentrated. Several target popped out. I shot every target faster than they finished being in position. Several have been broken in half at the intensity of the arrow. The arrows were magic.

Erza praised me before laying out several daggers. I grabbed them and flipped several in my hand before throwing them in a series of turns. All of them were on point. Erza said my timing was impeccable but I think I still need to work on it. I'll perfect it no matter what.

I breathed out a sigh before Erza told me to finishing exercises before her training was done. Of course, after this I still have training but she doesn't know that.

As I finished up the last of my weights, I felt the presence of people coming towards me.

"Do you need something right now Gajeel, Laxus, Thunder legion?" I said without turning around.

"Whoa Bunny girl, I didn't know you could do that. You're fuckin strong; you dodged all of Erza's swords blindfolded!"

"I didn't know you used daggers and a bow. As I recall Lucy-san, you're only equipped with a whip and keys."

I responded to Gajeel and Freed. "She's been training me, what do you expect. Erza doesn't stop until things go how she plans and beat you down until it's to her expectations. I didn't have much trouble though. She's been training me in long distance weapons since she said I have a very skilled talent for it. So I'm not just limited to that either." I turned to faced them.

Bickslow grinned before his tongue rolled out. "Your body's really toned now Cosplayer."

"Uh huh." Evergreen just looked at me with such intensity. Her eyes were looking at my exposed stomach. She looked skeptical.

I felt uncomfortable with how she was looking at me so I turned to leave, "If you don't have business with me, I need to go now."

Just then, the doors slammed open and Warren came in calling, "LUCY!"

I ran up to him and replied to his frantic calling, "Warren, what's wrong?"

His worried eyes turn to me. "Sabertooth needs your help. They called asking if you could come ASAP. Something happened to Yukino….."
