Chapter 7: A sudden change of plans.

It was a silent night. How long has it been since I last visited Mom? As I thought of what to say to her when I visit her grave the next day, I stared into the starry sky. It was beautiful. There was hardly any cloud in the sky. The wind made the place more enjoyable. I could only hear the tall grass rustling with the winds. I raised my hands to try and touch the sky but then, stab! I was hit by something on my neck. I removed it and it was a dart of tranquilizer. I fell on my knees as shadows surrounded me.

"I can't believe you made me search high and low for you Lucy!" I heard a voice speaking to me as someone slapped me hard.

I fell to the ground. I was blindfolded. I could not see anyone. My mouth was stuffed with cloth and was tied up too. I was brutally punched and kicked. In other words, I was tortured. As my blindfold loosened up from the movements, I could see everything. My father, his eyes was red and his hair was messed up. As I lay on the ground hopelessly, he laughed and tormented me.

"Do you know who killed you mother?" He smirked, "It was me!"

"She was so keen in protecting you that she gave away her only protection to you." He said, as he pointed to my Celestial Spirit Keys.

I looked at my keys and then back to him. My heart was burning with anger and hate. I could feel my adrenaline running through my veins. And then, before I got knocked out by someone, I remembered seeing someone with pink hair fighting Father.

I woke up seated in the middle of some circle. Father stood outside the circle but in front of me. He was crying. Surrounding the circle was my father's subordinates. They were preparing for some kind of spell.

"Forgive me Lucy." Father solemnly said, "I didn't know what I was doing, I'm sorry."

I could see he was in pain. I could feel his pain. It was genuine. His eyes were back to normal. It wasn't red like before. Was he controlled by someone else?

"Dad, what happened?" I shouted.

"I'm sorry Lucy." He murmured, "I failed as your Father to protect you. Please forgive me."

"Dad, I don't understand!" I stood up.

"Lucy, do not move!" He shouted as he placed his hands on the circle.

The circle started to light up. I was surrounded my magical energy. I floated in the circle.

"Forgive me Lucy!" My father cried out, "I'll erase your memories of pain, happiness, everything!"

"Forgive me Lucy.."

I woke up, gasping for air. I looked around me and I was in my room. I held my head with my sweating hands. I checked the time on my digital clock. It was 8 am and, I was late for school. Beside the clock, there was a note. It was from Natsu and Happy. It said…

"Once you wake up, drink the hot choco and the bun on the dining table in the kitchen. After that, come to school. I'll be waiting in the lounge. –Natsu"

I went down to the kitchen and saw the hot choco and the bun. I ate them and dressed up. Before I left home for Fairy Tail, I grabbed my keys and my whip. I think I need to train myself in becoming a Celestial Mage again. Hopefully, by training in Fairy Tail, it would help me regain my powers. I have yet to find out about my past, myself. The memories weren't enough to satisfy my heart. I need to find out more.


A/N: And so, the adventure continues! I revealed some of Lucy's Background. I still have more up my sleeves. I ain't gonna show them pretty soon. The story is getting more serious, so expect the unexpected in the next chapter! Imma raise your eyebrows again(hopefully~ xP) don't forget to review! Stay tuned!
