Thank you all for actually taking time to read this ^-^

Anyway, we're gonna find some more singing in here (we think) and some NaLu (we think) and some Lisanna flashbacks (we really don't know guys xD)

Remember, try listening to the songs while reading this story, cause it's designed to be like that :P.

After Natsu had run away, he felt terrible- not just inside, but out too.

Da next day… :3 -Purr-chan

Once he got to school, he received a blow from Erza and a headbutt from Gray. "You damaged our reputation, Natsu!" she chided. He rubbed his head and mumbled. "Sorry…"

And once he broke free, he was thrown against the wall by Gray, shirtless and sweating. "DO YOU KNOW HOW LONG I WAITED FOR YOU, PYRO?" he yelled. Natsu managed a faint grin. "Yeah, didn't know you cared that much, ice prick." Gray growled, but before he could do anything they were separated by Wendy and Lucy. "Stop it!" said Wendy indignantly. Lucy crossed her arms. "Yeah," she agreed.

Natsu froze.

There she was again.

Lisanna.

Noticing him clam up, Lucy frowned. "Something wrong?" Natsu shook his head, sweat already beading on his forehead. "Nothing."

He had to tell someone before it broke him.

Later on in the day, he went up to band practice, the entire group ticked off at him. "You are late," ordered Erza. Gray flipped his drumsticks. "Yeah, cut slacking and get moving." Wendy frowned. "Natsu, are you sure there's nothing wrong?"

But Lucy stayed silent, eyeing him.

Natsu smiled and slung his guitar case off of his back. "Nah, I'm fine. Let's go," he said hurriedly. The team exchanged glances, then nodded.

Lucy unslung her backpack and took out five different sheets of paper. "Wendy," she said, passing one to Wendy, "Erza-" one to Erza, "Gray-" one to Gray, "and Natsu."

Natsu squinted at the music. "Why's it so cheesy?" he complained. Erza hit him over the head with her metal-gray guitar, and he winced. "OW!" he complained. Erza gave him a dark look. "This song is plenty good, Natsu. Shall we start?" she motioned to Lucy. She nodded nervously.

The song would start with Lucy singing the beginning of the song, Magic Of Smiles (A little note: It's Egao No Mahou :). She took a deep breath, then sang.

"Whenever I'm with you," her voice quavered. She forced a breath. "Everything feels- feels alright. Love can come true, so go and turn the dial- cast the magic of smiles!"

Immediately, Natsu sprung into an amazing guitar intercept, with Gray, Wendy, and Erza backing him up.

Then he got a note wrong. "Aaargh!" He said, cutting the intercept short. Gray groaned. "Come on, Flame Brains. Get it right." Wendy however, smiled. "It's okay, he could get things wrong," she chirped. Erza nodded. "Wendy is correct; that was good for our first time. From the top!" she said, commanding voice sweeping through the team.

"Aye."

Hours later, they finally got it perfectly right.

"Yes!" cheered Natsu and Lucy, as Erza and Gray high-fived each other. Wendy was still practicing. "A, then A flat… G, E, F, G, A…" she murmured as she pressed the keys. Lucy came over. "Hey, Wendy," she greeted. Wendy glanced up, then smiled brightly. "Hello!"

Lucy leaned on the sparkly cloud-blue keyboard. "I never got to know you much… how long have you played key?" Wendy smiled. "About eight years. And still going!" Lucy whistled.

She turned to the open stage. "Who do you play for? Like, is there anyone that watches you play in particular?"

Wendy nodded and blushed. "Two people, actually. One of them is my adoptive brother, Jellal Fernandes." Lucy nodded, impressed. "Jellal… hmm, isn't he the one who had a shady reputation in the school?" Wendy shook her head. "He only did those things because he was blackmailed to, nothing more. Now, he's actually pretty nice."

Lucy nodded. "And… you said there are two people?"

Was it just her, or did Wendy just blush?

"Yeah, his name's Romeo Conbolt, and he's also a good friend to Natsu and well. Natsu got his dad out of trouble a while back." Lucy raised an eyebrow. "And your connection to him is…?" Wendy's tinted red cheeks now became an apple red. "Uh… we went to middle school together," she offered. Lucy tilted her head. "That all?" Her cheeks grew an even deeper red. "U-uh…"

Lucy laughed and rubbed Wendy's head. "Keep it up, Wendy."

Later, that night…

Lucy smiled stunningly as she went up to the stage. She was starting to get the hang of this 'showing your best smile' concept. "Good," whispered Natsu. "Smiling is good." Lucy nodded, then took the microphone.

"Don't screw it," hissed Gray to Natsu. He shot him a withering look. "Geez, get over it."

Lucy talked into the microphone. "Sorry for the holdup yesterday, we had a minor issue. But we're ready now," she twinkled. The crowd hooted with applause.

She took a deep breath. "This is called Magic Of Smiles, dedicated to our newfound band! I hope you enjoy it!" Then she signaled to Wendy, Erza, Natsu, and Gray to get ready.

"Whenever I'm with you, everythiiing feels alright. Love can come true, so go and turn the dial- cast the magic of smiiiiles!" Lucy sang, her voice now lidded and strong, much different to when she sang Lyra's Song.

Natsu and Erza sprang into a stunning solo, their hands working their way up and down their guitars as the different chords molded perfectly into their solo. Gray was behind them, keeping the beat on track as he pounded his sticks on his drums, trying to overcome Natsu's booming strings.

When they slowed down, Lucy sprang into song. "In a strong world full of problems, I just wanted to-o see.. A pretty face, a friendly grin," cooed Lucy as Wendy played backup key, little fingers flying across their own black and white stage, dancing and working their way. The others were doing their best- Natsu and Erza perfectly playing rock guitar, Gray pounding on his drums like it just didn't matter.

Lucy kept on singing, voice rising and lowering with the tune and turn of the music. "The halted ti-ime starts to move, after I met you… whatever am I doing now...ow?" The crowd cheered as Lucy walked across the stage, Natsu trailing after her like a leaf to the wind.

Her voice quieted down as she got to the bridge. "Why are we walking the earth? Why are we here right now?" Erza flipped her hair as her left hand changed the tunes in the speed of a shining light. "I don't need a difficult answer, just need to know how…"

The speakers burst into song, the crowd wild. Gray's hands were flying across his drum set as he winked at multiple girls in the crowd, who nearly fainted. "We will laugh, we will cry, we'll be honest and kind… simple feelings matter the most on tho-ose saddened nights!" shouted Lucy.

Natsu pumped a hand into the air as he missed a few notes, giving the crowd a good laugh. Erza shot him a look as she played his part. Lucy smiled. They really are meant to be together.

Wendy slammed a petite hand on her keyboard, trailing it down as she landed it perfectly on the right note. "Turn these overflowed tears into power and strength!" sang Lucy, heart as light as a phoenix song. "C'mon, let's go and do what we do best…" she allowed a five-second moment of silence, the music all silent as well.

"Go cast the magic of smiles!"

The song of joy reached the speakers once more as the band rocked their music each in every single way. The tune rose and fell, rose and fell. Finally, Natsu hung on to one last note and stopped it with throwing his pick to the crowd.

There was a stunned silence.

Then, the crowd exploded with such noise Lucy winced and had to fight the urge to hold her ears. It was so loud, the crowd could almost match the loudspeakers. Lucy offered Natsu the microphone, but he shook his head. "It's your show now," he said, grinning.

Lucy blinked, then smiled slightly. "Yeah. Thanks."

She began to shout into the microphone. "Hello, Fairy Tail!" The crowd hollered. "Thank you! Um, I would like to introduce myself? My name is Lucy, and I'm the new lead singer of the band FairyTail! I hope that all of you get used to me singing here, 'cause I don't plan to stop!"

"WE'RE ALREADY USED TO IT! YOU SOUND LIKE LISANNA!" one of the people screamed. "YEAH, BUT BETTER!" roared another.

Behind Lucy, Natsu's blood froze into ice, which was not a feeling he experienced often.

Just then, he motioned for Lucy to give him the microphone. "U-uh, and here's our lead guitar, Natsu!" she stammered.

Natsu practically snatched it and shouted. "Thank you all for coming! Have a good night, everyone!"

Lucy frowned. It wasn't like she couldn't say that either…

Later, as the group broke up to walk home, Lucy was a few steps in front of Gray, thinking of something.

"Hey, Gray?" Lucy turned around to look at the male. "Eh?" He replied. "What happened to Lisanna?" she asked him. Gray searched Lucy's eyes. "I'm not much of a storyteller, but Lisanna was a pretty important part of our group. Natsu and Lisanna were the perfect couple, I used to tease them for it," Gray chuckled, holding his cigarette. He chucked his shirt in his bag. Lucy blinked, then screamed slightly. "What are you doing!" she yelped. Gray gave no notice and barreled on. "Well… until the accident," he leaned on the brick wall, puffing out smoke. "What accident?" Lucy asked curiously, deciding to pretend not to look at his chest. "It all happened one day after a concert…"

"Lisanna was walking with her sister, Mirajane. Her brother, Elfman, was drunk. He was driving his truck, and in an attempt to save Mira, Lisanna flew thirty feet… She's in a coma," Gray blew into his cigarette, forming multiple rings. Lucy winced. "You should stop smoking…" Gray shook his head. "Nah, it's fine. Anyway, she's been like this for a whole three years now. Natsu's pretty shaken up about it still… I guess you just remind him of her," He spit the cigarette onto the floor and stepped on it. "Anything else, Lucy?" He looked at her coolly. "Ah, nothing. See you tomorrow!" Lucy smiled and got up. "Bye!" she walked away. Gray nodded to her and jammed his hands into his pockets. "Later."

While walking home, Lucy processed what she just heard.

Natsu had loved Lisanna? Lisanna had loved Natsu?

...And now Lucy reminded Natsu of Lisanna?

And scene!

So, we promise there are going to be A LOT of plot twists in this :3

And Jellal is brought up to this! Hmm, wonder what he did exactly to gain such a shady reputation… but those are questions for later! Have a great night, everyone! Also, this was the last day of school so :3 we have a lot of free time on our hands.

And for next week, sorry if updating becomes slow, as Joanne Park is going somewhere without wifi :(
