KNOW I'M AN ASS. But you still love me~! I was reading my chapters when I realized that I made a mistake in chapter one. You know how I made Natsu seem like he didn't realize that he loved Lucy, that was a mistake. He always knew. He was just still getting used to the idea of having Lisanna back. Now that that is cleared, on to the story!

Erin stared at Lucy, a completely lost look on his face. Lucy just stared back him with jaws slacked and brown eyes wide with complete shock. No way, just no fuckin way. How could she not see this? Of course, by the way Crescent and McKenna acted and the fact that they were married for over 20 years... HOW COULD SHE NOT SEE THIS COMING?! She clamped her jaws together and rubbed her fingers delicately on her scars, sighing at the stress and confusion swimming through her head. Erin slightly raised an eyebrow, an amused smile on his face. What's up with this girl? One minute her jaws are on the ground and the next she's deep in thought with a cute pout on her lips. This was going to be fun.

"Oy, can you explain what you're doing here?" Erin calmly asked, hands buried in the pockets of his black jeans. Lucy only glared at him.

"I should be asking you the same... Erin?" She huffed with puffed cheeks. He grinned.

"Yep, that's me! Erin Nightshade, the cute and incredibly sexy guy standing right in front of you!" He said while pointing his thumb towards him, his chest puffed up and a mock grin on his face. Lucy giggled slightly.

"Oh really Mr. Nightshade, can you explain where undeniably cool jacket just go?" Lucy snickered. Erin quickly looked at his shoulder and found that his black (super expensive) leather jacket gone from the place he last put them.. He gaped before frantically looking around. Lucy laughed as she saw the priceless look on his face as he desperately searched for his jacket. His blue eyes widened before growling at her.

"You!" He shouted before pointing an accusing finger at her. "You took my jacket! Give it back!" he wailed before launching himself at her. Lucy gasped in surprise as the breath was knocked out of her when the black haired man leaped at her. The dirt ground met with the back of her head with a big twack! owowowowowoowowo! Erin... was soon to meet hell.

"GET OFF ME YOU BIG BUFFOON!" Lucy screamed into his ear. Erin yelped as he clutched his ear. Damn she had a loud voice... When Lucy saw his pained expression she quickly grabbed his shoulders and flipped them, with her on top, pressing his perfect hair to the dirty ground. "TAKE THAT!" she howled with delight. Erin growled as he flipped her over. He took his time to now observe her better. Lucy watched as his sterling blue eyes trailed her body, her arms pinned over her head. She saw as his eyes slightly lingered at her her huge bossom. Erin blew a low whistle.

"Nice rack blondie." he commented a goofy grin on his face. Lucy's eye twitched before her fist escaped their prison and collided with his perfect face. A shame, he had such a nice face, with that crow black hair that flopped on his head so perfectly, that unbelievably perfect curve of the nose, and those such slightly pink, perfect kissable lips... Wait... Don't go there...

"SHUT THE FUQ UP PERV!" She cried out, now standing and both arms crossed around her chest. Her face was cherry red, half from embarrassment and the other half from anger. Her eyebrows were scrunched up and her lips slightly wobbled. Erin stared at her, eyes wide and hand cradling his offended cheek. His blue eyes bored into her flared brown eyes. A deep melodious laugh echoed through Lucy's head. Eyes wide, Lucy looked down at the laughing Erin, his lips curving up showing glowing white teeth and the distinguishable sharp canines. His eyes were closed, slightly crinkled at the edges. Erin's face literally radiated all the happiness and joy in his soul, and let me tell you, he was definitely a very very happy man. Wait, correction, a very happy kid. Lucy's angry face diminished fast, leaving a cute pink blush dusting across her cheeks. Lucy's brown eyes widened in shock, her lips slightly widened before her eyes softened and lips gave a small smile. A gentle and slightly amused expression crossed her face. Her eyes glazed over as she gazed at Erin lovingly. E

Erin's laughing soon came down to a low chuckling before stopping altogether. He shot Lucy an absurd look from the lack of response. He noticed that her eyes were paying quite the attention to his face. He felt his cheeks heat up as response. Why is she staring at me? it's my looks isn't it. A smug smirk was visible on his tan face. When he finally had the balls to to look into her eyes, he saw that her lovely calm expression wasn't directed to him. Her eyes were distant, her mind in its own world. Erin cocked his head slightly to his left, a puzzled look in his eyes.

Lucy just couldn't help but remember the way that pink haired laughed, so similar to Erin's. The way the canines would grin at her, the way his onyx eyes would twinkle. She didn't even notice the weird stare Erin was giving her. Erin let out an unattractive snort. Lucy's mind snapped back to reality.

"You're so weird..." He chuckled. Just like Natsu... Lucy just sighed.

"I'm weird? Yah, sure, I'm the one with weird hair." That was a total lie, she loved his hair. Erin patted his black hair with a mock hurt look on his face.

"What are you saying?! I know you love it! Don't lie!" he teased. Lucy turned her head and crossed her arms under her bossom. Her face was in a cute pout, her lips in a stubborn purse. Erin laughed. She really was strange.

"Oy, give me back my jacket. Do you know how much that cost?" he told her, looking in her eyes for any sympathy. She only gave a wicked grin.

"Like i said, catch me." she taunted. Erin growled.

"Bitch." he mumbled. Lucy glared at him.

"I heard that bastard." she bared her teeth before sinking into a shadow. Erin blinked in surprise. What? Where did she go?

"You have to find meeee!~" a teasing voice taunted his mind as he whipped his head behind him to find nothing. He hissed in frustration. What was her magic anyway? Oh if he only knew...

A huge looming swarm of black shoved him into a tree, scratching his right arm.

"OY! Stop hiding and play fair!" he whined. He only hear giggling in return.

"Never~" a voice sang back. Damn, she was good at hiding. Erin's nose twitched before he gave a huge grin. His huge hand dipped into a black shadow not too far from his feet. His hand swam in a circle before he gripped a rough piece of fabric. His grin grew wider.

"Found ya!" he cheered. He pulled the squirming women from the black shadow.

"Put me down! That's not fair! Let goooo!" Lucy's protests fell on deaf ears as she desperately tried to escape his tight grip. Erin only grinned evilly at her before pulling her face uncomfortably too close to his. Lucy gulped as she saw the cruel look in his blue eyes.

"Na na na~ You better give my jacket~!" he sung, a devilish glint in his eye. Lucy narrowed her eyes before giving him a smirk.

"Never!" She shouted, amusement written all across her face. Erin growled, not amused.

"I'll say it only one more time. Give. Me. My. Jacket." he growled, blue eyes glaring at her. Lucy put up a funny face with her tongue sticking out at him. Erin grinded his teeth, boy was she annoying. A murderous grin crossed slid on his mouth. "You give me no choice, you're going down with no mercy!" He yelled before fully tackling her to the dirt filled ground. Lucy screamed as she felt his long fingers brush against her soft sides mercilessly. Erin's evil laugh echoed in the forest along with Lucy's desperate out of breath laughs.

"S-S-STOP! AHHAHA! NOO! STOP! YAA!" she screamed out, clawing at his hands,trying to get them off her. Erin's devil hands stayed where they were, and so did that evil grin that stretched across his face.

"Give me back my jacket~" he sung in a menacing voice. "OR ELSE BITCH, I'LL CUT YOU" he towered over, mercilessly tickling poor Lucy.

"GYAAA! OOKOKKOK! HIHI! I GIVE! I GIVE! HERE! AHH! TAKE YOUR FUCKIN JACKET!" His leather jacket came flying at his face, momentarily stunning him, giving enough time for Lucy to escape his tight grasp. For revenge, Lucy kicked at him, or specifically in between his legs where the sun don't shine. Hard. Erin gave out a girly eep before rolling to his side, clutching his crotch.

"My balls, my balls." He weeped. "I won't be able to have children, my balls, oh the pain, oh my god…" he moaned. Tears welded up in his eyes as his cheeks puffed up in pain. He rolled on his back from side to side on his back, not caring about his precious leather jacket that was now in the dirt. Lucy burst out laughing, clutching her stomach from the vibrations of her laughter. Her cheeks started to hurt from the amount of smiling she was doing. Erin shot her a deadly glare.

"You killed my future with kids, I'm sooo gonna get you for that." He sputtered out, trying to get but miserably failing. His legs weakly tried to support his weight only to wobble and plop back to the dirt floor. Lucy shook her hair, trying to get rid of all the dirt and leaves in her hair. She was really going to need to shower when she got home. She watched, slightly guilty, as Erin tried to get up, only to fall back on his face. Erin's blue eyes met her brown ones.

"Help please?" he asked, Lucy sighed. She had a feeling she was going to regret kicking him that hard.

"No spiting in my hair, got it?" she pointed her finger at him to make sure he got how serious her hair was. Erin put both hands up.

"Kay, got it, you really like your hair." He mumbled. Lucy nodded. Good. Lucy wrapped his left arm around her shoulder and hosted him up, his weight on her body, his left hand clutching his leather jacket. Since she got strong (really strong..) this wasn't that much of a problem for her. Erin hobbled after Lucy's fast pace, his legs jellified and not working to his command.

"Damn women, you didn't need to kick that hard, we men are sensitive down there if you didn't notice." He hissed in her ear, obviously stilled pissed at her harsh treatment. Lucy only huffed her checks.

"That's what you get for nearly tickling me to death." She pouted. Erin grinned at the memory.

"You totally disserved it though. You were being a complete bitch, not giving me my jacket." He grinned while twirling his jacket in his hand. Lucy only gave him an annoyed stare.

"Asshole…" she muttered. Erin only chuckled at her comment. As the big oak house appeared Lucy finally realized something she should have realized a long time.

"Yo, where did McKenna go?" Lucy asked Erin. Erin made a puzzled face before putting the pieces together.

"OH shit. Did we leave her behind?" He thought out loud.

"I doubt it, McKenna isn't that stupid…." Lucy commented. She rubbed the scar tiredly. Why now when she was going to have that nice hot bath…

"Let's just go to the house first. You don't know if she went on ahead of us before." He scratched the back of his head before shaking his head to himself. Lucy just dragged him toward the huge assed oak doors before using his body weight to open them.

"SHIT WOMEN! THAT HURT DAMNIT!" he howled, clutching his now throbbing shoulder. Lucy's weight plus the force of the doors on him was not a good thing. Lucy giggled before calling to Crescent.

"CRESCENT! GET YOUR LAZY ASS DOWN AND HELP YOUR PATETIC USE OF A SON!" she shouted, her voice ringing down the hallways. Erin growled before nipping her ear in anger. Lucy startled cry as she felt the sharp teeth snap at her ear. She tried to get off of Erin only to be pulled back in so she could support his weight. Lucy groaned in frustration, why did this happen to her again? Instead of the black messy mop of hair that Lucy expected, a black head with white streaks curiously peeked out to look at her from behind a pillar. Lucy stared at McKenna and that slow knowing smirk that crawled up her face.

"O-Oh hey McKenna! You were here? Why'd you leave us?" Lucy laughed nervously, that smirk screaming mischief at her. McKenna walked from her hiding to walk in front of the blonde and black haired teenagers standing in front of the door. That grin of hers never faltering.

"Oh, well you guys seemed to be enjoying yourselves, so I decided why not come home?" McKenna laughed evilly. Erin gulped, he had a bad feeling about this. "Did you guys enjoy yourselves?" McKenna giggled. Lucy stared at her, eyes wide and mouth opening and closing like a fish before she burst out laughing. Her laughs echoed through the halls of the mansion and she even bended down to clutch her stomach, letting Erin stumble to the ground. Erin stared at Lucy's laughing form, clearly not happy with her response. McKenna lifted an eyebrow.

"What's so funny Lucy?" McKenna quirked. Lucy wiped away an invisible tear, cheeks hurting from all the smiling.

"How could you think me and him" she pointed toward Erin who was seated on the ground "hooked up?" She giggled. Erin growled. How? He was so used to catching all types of women. He loved getting their undivided attention, even if it was unwanted. Why was this so different?

McKenna chuckled as she saw the irritated look visible on her boy's face. Lucy merely stuck her tongue at him. McKenna then gently lifted her grown son on his feet.

"What happened? Why can't you walk?" She questioned. Erin huffed before indiginately pointing at Lucy.

"That bitch kicked right in the balls, I didn't even do anything!" He cried out. Lucy made a sneering face.

"He almost tickled me to death!" she whined back.

"SUREEE! LIKE I TOTALLY DISERVED A KICK TO THE CROTCH!" he yelled back.

"YOU SURE DID YOU SON OF A BITCH!" Lucy shouted, yanking his ear. Erin yelped before nipping her forearm. Lucy screamed before pounding his head to the floor. McKenna sweat dropped before face palming. They were bickering like old people.

"Ice… I need to get ice… Lots of it too…" McKenna mumbled as she walked towards the freezer in the opposite room.

"What's all this shit that's going on here?!" Crescent howled from the top of the grand staircase. Erin's head popped up from the dent in the floor to search for his father with excited blue eyes.

"Hey pops!" Erin grinned, a purple bruise swelling above his right eye. Crescents eye twitched as when as the corner of his lips.

"Lucy… When my son comes home…. YOU DON'T FUCKIN BEAT HIM TO DEATH! DO YOU HAVE NO RESPECT WOMEN?!" Crescent shouted. Lucy glared holes at him, mouth in an ugly, anger frown.

"WHAT ARE YOU SAYING?! HE WAS THE ONE THAT STARTED IT!" she barked back. As Crescent and Lucy shot back nasty comments, McKenna reappeared with the needed ice. She gingerly picked up her son and seated him at a plump chair. He lifted an ice pack to his now swollen eye and hissed as she laid down an ice pack over his crotch. He whimpered as he felt the coldness spread to the painful area. The damn women was going to die.

"FINE THEN! IF YOU THINK I'M AN OLD BASTARD, I WON'T TEACH YOU SOMETHING NEW I WAS PLANNING TO DO" Crescent hollered back. Lucy physically froze. Crescent smirked as he realized he reached jackpot. Lucy growled at the knowing smirk plastered on her masters face.

"Fine bitch, I'm sorry." She gave an stubborn puff before turning her head at Erin. A glint of guilt flickered through her eyes. "Hey, you ok? Sorry 'bout what I did…" she mumbled bashfully, her finger stroking her scar tentatively. Erin eyebrows raised in slight shock before giving her a grin.

"'sal right." He replied back.

"YO! Lucy! You coming?" Crescent called from the front doors that were now opened. Lucy turned to look at Crescent, a bemused expression on her face, eyebrows furrowed.

"What? What for?" She asked curiously. Crescent gave a cheeky grin before pulling out a ring of keys, swinging them around his finger, taunting her. Lucy's eyes went wide before she jumped towards him, joy radiating from her. Her hands covered her mouth and her brown eyes slightly watered. How did he find them? WHERE?

"H-How?!" she gasped, reaching for her lost keys, grasping them tight in her hands. Crescent gave a proud smirk.

"I have my ways, now just be grateful. You ready to use them?"

"FINALLY! OH HELL YES!" she screamed before doing a happy dance, keys jiggling in her hands. Erin laughed at Lucy's childish antics. She was just so cute sometimes.

XOXOXOX~

"Open the gate of the Lion, LEO!" Lucy chanted. Crescent grinned at how well Lucy was progressing already. For not even touching her keys for about 2 years, she was still amazing. Lucy smiled as she felt the familiar rush of magic flow through her veins, the adrenaline rushing through her veins of finally using her natural magic. Her smile broke out into a grin whe she saw the familiar flash of gold. In the place of the gold dust, stood a orange haired male in a suit and tie. The male pushed his glasses up before blinking dumbly.

"L-Lucy!?" I-Is that really you? Is that really you?" he called softly. His figure slightly trembled when he saw his blonde master nod her head. He saw her doe brown eyes water with unshed tears and her choke back a cry of happiness.

"I'm back Loke." She sniffled. A flash of orange was seen before she was engulfed in a warm hug. Her eyes slightly widened before she tenderly hugged the orange being back.

"I missed you so much. I thought I failed you! I thought you died!" he choked out, burying his orange mane into her shoulder. Lucy gently patted his head, comforting him while holding back her own tears.

"I wouldn't die that easily Loke. What would Aquarius think?" Lucy joked, trying to lift the mood. She heard Like slightly chuckle, relieving her just a bit. Loke firmly gripped her shoulders before staring into her coco brown eyes with his own jade green ones.

"Don't do anything retarded like that again. Alright stupid?" he told her sternly, his gaze never faltering from her own. Lucy rubbed her scar, a embarrassed look on her face.

"Yah, yah. I get it. Sorry…" she huffed out. Loke gasped when he saw the scar the marinated her pretty face.

"WHAT HAPPENED TO YOU?!" he ranted, gliding his finger over the pale lines. Lucy brushed his hand away, not feeling comfortable with him touching her in her vulnerable place.

"It's nothing too serious, just… a dog attack." She quickly chuckled. Loke's face blanched.

"A dog did that to you? Really?" he quirked an eyebrow, an amused smirk on his face. Lucy playfully growled at him, eyes holding happiness for seeing a long lost friend.

"Cough, cough. Sorry to interrupt you "moment", but Lucy is running low on magical energy and she probably wants to see her other spirits too." Crescent rudely interrupted, a hand stretching over his head. Loke glared at the offended victim before sighing in agreement.

"Take care of yourself Lucy, don't scare me like that again!" Loke smiled. He gave her a soldier's solute with two fingers before disappearing with a gold puff. Lucy grinned. She really missed everyone…

XOXOXOX~

Lucy sighed in content, finally able to see her spirits after such a long time and finally being able to finally be able to lie down on a bed. Tartus nearly tackled her mooing that he missed her "beautiful booooooobs" with comical tears streaming down his face. Aquarius nearly drowned her, yelling at her how retarded she was and Aries even scolded her! ARIES! But after her slight scolding, she started apologizing. Same old Aries. Plue nearly stabbed her with that sharp nose of his and Gemini nearly suffocated her with twin Lucys. Now she knew how Happy felt when she hugged him…

Lucy giggled when she thought back on Fairy Tail. Oh how much she missed them. Their silly ways, the bar fights, the normal fights, the happy atmosphere, and especially Natsu. His toothy grin, his pink hair, his deep eyes, his scaley but surpisingly soft scarf, and most of all his warmth. She missed it so much. How much she ached for just a single touch of his warm body, to see his smile again. Lucy closed her eyes and rested her head against the rough bark of the tree. She remembered Team Natsu, Erza, Gray, Happy and Natsu. Man did she miss them all. Lucy snuggled deeper into her pillow, wanting to just curl up into a ball and fall into a nice warm dream. Her wishes though, were interrupted by a strong knock on the door. Lucy groaned as she got up from her warm cavern of blankets. She was tired from all the magical drain, what could she possibly do now?!

"Whaaaaat!" Lucy whinned. McKenna's black and white head peeked through the now open door.

"Lucy, I haven't seen Erin for hours now, do you mind going out and finding him? Please…" McKenna begged with a worry crease on her pretty face. Her blue eyes were wide and her lips were in a cute pout. Lucy dragged her hand down her face, trying to rub the fatigue off her face. How could she say no to that face?

"Fine! Fine! I'll be right out!" Lucy snapped. McKenna hummed in response. Lucy the trudged her way out the door, down the staircase and out the entrance, grumbling the whole way. "Stupid Erin, worrying Kenna and making me find his lazy ass, when is he NOT stupid…"

XOXOXOXO~

After nearly an hour of searching through dirty forest and muddy swamps she not only was frustrated and tired, she was pissed as hell. Her eyes narrowed and steam literally blew out of her nostrils when she found the blue eyed son napping in a green field, face towards the now setting sun. Lucy growled in frustration. While he was taking a nice peaceful nap that SHE deserved, here she was, searching for his ass nearly for the past hour! As she walked closer to the sleeping figure, ready to punch his nose again, she decided to observe him carefully. He was definitely a very handsome man, with that black hair and perfect face. Her brown eyes traveled past his slightly bobbling Adams apple to the perfect abs, prodding though the loose white shirt. His strong tan hands laying underneath his head, blue eyes now closed with sleep. Lucy crouched down next to him, getting a closer look. Through her silent gaze, she didn't notice a crystal blue eye lazily open at her, nor the tired smirk that slithered onto his face.

"Done observing yet?" he croaked with tiredness lace in his words. Lucy snapped her eyes away from him and fell backwards onto her bottom. Lucy puffed her pink tinted cheeks and crossed her arms under her chest, not liking the feeling of being caught red handed. Erin gave her a lazy grin before yawning and stretching out his sore muscles. His felt his joints pop and his neck crack. His scratched his cheek and smacked his lips in satisfaction. Lucy pouted.

"You know your mom's worried about you! You were gone for such a long time!" she huffed at him. Erin wagged his eyebrows.

"OR, were YOU worried about me?" he teased. Lucy snorted in return.

"Phhffft, like I would worry about a jackass like you!' she scoffed back. Erin just shook his before laying back down in the soft grass.

"Join me, lay down for a couple more minutes, it won't kill ya." He grinned. Lucy thought about it before giving into the tempting request. She plopped down in the empty space next to him, the soft grass brushing under her. She gave a satisfied sigh when she curled into the grass, not really caring that she was going to get a little dirty. Before she could slip into the sandman's grasp, she felt a patting on her back. She groaned as she turned to the offender. Erin pointed towards the sky where the stars were shining so bright. It was a perfect night for star gazing.

"Don't they look pretty…" Erin murmured. Lucy just gave a tired grin.

"Yah, it's a perfect night for star gazing…" she whispered back. Erin turned to his side and stared at the blonde beauty lying down next to him. He observed her splayed out blonde hair and tired but excited brown eyes. He watched as she lifted a slender finger and pointed towards the sky whispering names of the constellations. Erin grinned at her weirdness. She was really pretty under the stars like this… really pretty. He twirled a long blonde lock in between his fingers. Her hair really grew now, reaching the end of her waist. It was really pretty. When Lucy turned her head at him, he quickly turned away to avoid her accusing gaze.

"Do you know the names of the constellations?" she asked curiously. Erin shook his head in no. Lucy audiably gasped. "How could you not!" she asked shocked. Erin laughed, she truly was strange.

As the two teens started talking under the stars, they realized that poor McKenna who was still home, now worried sick about both teens… They were to meet hell once they got back home…

XOXOXOXO~

7 months later…..

Lucy swiftly ran through the leafy foliage of the new spring trees. She hopped from branch to branch, totally ignoring the swishing arrows that skimmed past her. She jumped down and quickly sunk into a murky shadow, disappearing from sight.

"That won't hide you Lucy! I can still smell you!~" The black haired mage sung, tapping his nose. He abruptly dodged left as a black spear flew in his direction. Lucy pounced at him right after. They both went tumbling onto the dirt floor. As the tussled on the ground Lucy lifted a sliver key into her right hand.

"Open the gate of the minor dog, Nokina!" Her voice commanded. In a flash of white light, there in her hands was the white "dog".

"Puuunnnn~!" he cutely gurgled.

"DIE ERIN!" Lucy cackled as she stabbed Plue's carrot nose into his chest. Erin howled in pain.

"DON'T FUCKIN USE PLUE AS A DAGGER BITCH!" he cried, shoving the crazed blonde away from him. He quickly ducked down as the white blob came flying at him, his orange nose embedding itself into the nearby tree.

He quickly dragged out a huge sword from a black shadow and swiped at Lucy. Lucy quickly spun, narrowly avoiding the sharp blade. Erin ate the sword quickly before launching himself at Lucy, starting another wrestling match. They both growled as they locked arms on each others, trying to pin the other to the ground, and so far, Erin was winning. He smirked as he felt Lucy's arms slightly weaken under the pressure. What he didn't expect though was the hard head butt. They heads made a dull 'thunk', momentarily putting stars in Erin's eyes. Lucy grinned as she kicked him off of her, grapping his hands behind his hand and trapping them there. Erin snarled at his predicament, before giving gave a snarky grin. His long legs came under and kicked Lucy's feet, throwing her off balance, but her grip on his arms tight. They both came crashing down to the dirt floor, flopping around like fish trying to overpower each other.

"BOTH OF YOU ARE HOPELESS DUMBASSES!" Crescent screeched. His hands held up above his head and face scrunched and teeth bared in pure annoyance. Lucy and Erin let go'd of each other before laughing at Erin's angry expression. Crescent sighed before shaking his head. Kids were obviously staying kids.

"So… how was that Crescent? Good enough for the old man?" Lucy taunted, sticking her tongue out at him. Crescent growled while Erin chuckled.

"I guess your techniques are satisfactory now…" Crescent murmured. Lucy's ears perked at the comment, eyes shining in new found hope. Crescent sighed before shaking in agreement with himself. "Lucy, I think it's time you moved on… to find your real family…" Crescent gave Lucy a small smile. Lucy sparkled in joy. She was going home! She was going back to Fairy Tail! SHE WAS GOING HOME!

"YES! YES YES YES!" she screamed, her fists shaking in the air and her feet hopping. Erin sighed in slight disappointment. He knew this day was going to come. He noticed her skills becoming closer to perfection for the past couple of months, knowing she was going to leave soon, but he still couldn't help becoming attached to the over excited blonde. Erin ruffled her blonde hair and gave her cheeky grin.

"I'm gonna miss ya, blonde bitch." He chuckled. Lucy grinned back.

"I'm gonna miss you too, cocky bastard." She laughed. Crescent watched in satisfaction on the two teens behaviors, they were taking it much better then he though.

"Well, let's go back to the house, if you pack quick enough, you could probally leave before nightfall and reach the closest village if you travel by shadow…" he thought. Lucy nodded in agreement, excitement pouring from her being. While Crescent and Erin casually strolled back home, Lucy ran. Her blonde wolf form whizzed past Erin's shoulder as she race home.

"Race you jackass!" he heard her call. He growled playfully.

"You're on fucker!" he called back, quickly forming into a black wolf and chasing after her. Crescent sweat dropped. As always, children will always stay children…

XOXOXOXO~

"I'M GOING TO MISS YOU! MY BABYY~" McKenna sobbed, comical tears streaming down her face. Lucy sweated dropped at McKenna's reaction, and stummbled backwards when she was crushed in an unexpected 'wolf' hug from McKenna. Lucy hugged McKenna back, giving a small smile.

"I'll miss you too Kenna, you were like a second mother to me, if that makes you fell any better…" Lucy chuckled. Erin and Crescent both sweat dropped at the scene in front of them. Lucy felt her black cloak slightly dampen from McKenna's tears and gently pushed a crying McKenna off her. She was wearing her usual jumpsuit, fitting well against her.

"Bye Crescent, bye Erin! I'm going to miss you guys!" She grinned, showing off her now slightly sharp teeth. She both gave them hugs, Erin's lasting longer.

"You have the pack?" Erin whispered in her ear, arms still around her waist. Lucy nodded against his shoulder.

"Right it here…" she said, patting her back pack, one arm around his back. Erin grinned.

"Stay safe little Lucy." He smiled. Lucy smiled brightly back, patting his black hair.

"I will, so don't worry! I'll try and visit some time! Is that ok?" she asked. McKenna shook her head in agreement.

"Come anytime!" she sniffled. Lucy grinned before walking away. She turned, her blonde hair now in a long braid casading down her back swinging around, and waved at them, that gorgeous smile embedded on her face. The family waved back, equally happy smiles on their face. When the huge mansion was out of sight, Lucy went full spead, running through shadow, past thousands of trees at time. She was coming home. Be ready Fairy Tail, 'cause Lucy Heartifilia was coming home, better then ever.
