Lucky or unlucky Lucy Heartfilia

Chapter 5

Silence, that's all that its been filled with, utterly complete silence. Lucy was sat in the corner of the bar leaning against the wall, a soft blanket wrapped around her shoulders as she held it close. She had stopped shivering around 10 minutes after getting to the guild where she knew she was safe and in the company of her family.

Master Macorv was sat with his legs crossed on the bar, he held the letter in his hand. His face was not pleased with this recent information that has been brought on, which made Lucy feel even more guilty, she did not want the guild to get involved with this problem. She just wanted to curl up into a ball and die.

Suddenly the front doors slammed open revealing, Gray, Natsu and Elfman, " we got here as fast as we could! What's going on?" asked Gray, his breathing slightly un even, shirtless like normal having to lean on his knees for support.

The master opened his eye's and stood up on the bar, " The monster, that has attacked Lucy has made another appearance!" the three newcomers turned to see Lucy, who was looking away which made Gray look down, "I'm sorry Lucy," she shook her head and looked over to him.

"No, it's not your fault Gray… it's my own, I've brought problems onto the guild again. I'm sorry…" she spoke as the master walked over and placed a gentle hand on her head, " Don't be my child, remember what I said before, you are a proud member of the Fairy Tail guild, we stick together. Now I'm going to assign 2 protectors to you Lucy while the rest go searching around town for this lunatic."

This caused everyone to look at the master, they wasn't expecting this, " Natsu!, Erza! You two will be watching over Lucy for this mission, since Natsu knows this mans scent, he will be able to detect if the person is near Lucy. Erza because she is one of the females that has been close to Lucy during this case." both of them Nodded, Lucy was about to protest but Mira just placed a hand on her shoulder and shook, to allow it. No one dared go against the Master at the moment.

After the meeting with the guild, Lucy stood up and placed on a jacket Mira loaned her, back from her s-class mission days, just a small black leather one, but it suited Lucy. Grabbing her purse she was about to head out of the guild when someone called out to her, turning around she saw Gray. Gripping the handle of the guild door she gave him a gentle smile.

"Hey, what's wrong Gray?" she spoke, he rubbed the back of his head, and sighed, "I just, wanted to know if your really ok with me being around the guild at the moment? I heard the discription you gave the Master." Lucy looked down to the ground. She gulped a little and nodded "Yes, it wasn't you so I shouldn't really be afraid. I'm sorry Gray if I made you feel insecure about being around me." she let go of the door and held her upper left arm. " Listen we are going to get this bastard ok? So just take it easy…" Lucy nodded and smiled again " I will do!"

"LUCY!" Screamed the small blue cat crashing into her arms, she smiled and held him, "We get to be together again!" Lucy let out a small chuckle and petted Happy on top of the head, " yeah, I'm sorry I'll make you a special fish dinner tonight ok?" Happy squealed in delight. As Gray held his hand out to Lucy, she slowly reached out, and touched his cold fingers. " I promise we will make this right again! Especially count on Natsu" Lucy gave another nod. An with that she left the guild without notifying Natsu or Erza.

Happy snuggling in her arms, along with a small little white dog, with a carrot nose trailing behind her, " it feels like before doesn't it? Well just a little… I'm gaining a little trust in my companions." Happy nodded along with Pluu.

Finally after walking along the river bank, they made it to her apartment, she stood in front of the door nervously, she didn't know whether to go inside or not after last time when she was alone, but this time she had Happy and one of her spirits, fair enough Pluu wasn't strong but it was still something right?

Erza slammed her fist on the table, " AND YOU LET HER LEAVE ON HER OWN GRAY!" Gray shrunk back, holding his hands over his head. "S..sorry, I thought you two was following her out? How was I suppose to know she wanted to go on her own?" Erza's forehead scrunched up, she and Natsu was stood over a cowering Gray. They both was pissed off beyond belief.

"Well instead of standing over me and about to beat me, go after her! Sheesh!" Erza slammed her fist next to his head, " if someone harms her, it will be on your head!"

Lucy managed to build up the courage and walk into her apartment, looking around everything looked almost brand new, so that's what the girls was up to yesterday, cleaning up her apartment. She looked into her fridge and it was stocked up with various of new ingredients.

She changed into a pair of loose jeans, with a pink t-shirt, allowing happy and pluu to enjoy themselves in the kitchen, then walked in and began getting ingredients out to make a meal for when Natsu and Erza finally got there, she knew they wouldn't be happy with her coming home on her own, but it was something she had to do, she had to have the courage to walk into the place by herself. Otherwise she would have never been able to do it.

Suddenly while she was dicing up a carrot, her front door slammed open causing her to slip with the knife and cut herself, turning around she saw both of her friends panting. "GOD! DON'T SCARE ME LIKE THAT!" she placed her bloody finger over the cold tap.

"Why the hell did you leave the guild on your own?" spoke an pissed off Erza, Lucy sighed, " it was something I had to do Erza, I was fine. I have my celestial spirits with me remember. In any case, dinner will be ready soon so go take a bath or something." she could smell the sweat coming off Natsu. Who placed himself down on her pink chair.

"I don't feel like a bath!" he spoke, until 2 women turned to him, Erza grabbed him by the collar and dragged him off to the bathroom. Him squealing not wanting to take one.

30 minutes later they was sat down for dinner, Lucy had made a variety of meals to each of their likings, Happy was just plain Happy that he got his fish that Lucy promised, Natsu with spicy food, and Erza with what she liked.

Slowly she picked threw her vegatables, that was on the side of her plate, when Natsu noticed, " you not hungry Lucy?" she nodded " yeah just feel a little sick, but don't worry about me. Enjoy your meal. since we can't go out on a job for a while I don't know when the next time I'll be able to cook a good feast.." Erza gave her a small look, oh yeah, Natsu doesn't know about the inheritance on what Lucy had gained.

" So the sleeping arrangements are me and Natsu on the floor ok?" Erza spoke which earned a groan from Natsu, " but I like Luce bed! So comfy!" Erza hit him around the head, "Never sleep in a womans bed without permission" Natsu rubbed the back of his head, he was about to talk back when Lucy butted in, " I don't mind taking the floor, I'm already use to it when Natsu normally ends up sleeping over." Erza looked between the two "Sure there's nothing going on between you both?"

They was about to deny it when suddenly Natsu's nose caught onto something, he jumped up from the table and hurried out of the kitchen going towards the bathroom, when he opened the door, the bathroom window was open, rushing over he didn't see anyone suspicious around the streets.

Both girls followed him in, they didn't notice what Natsu was looking out of the window for, but Lucy noticed the message on the mirror.

Lucy,

Here is a nice gift I thought I'd bring you. Remember I'm closer than you think and always watching you, your stupid body guards wont be their for ever! Just remember your mine, everything about you is mine!

Please cherish the present I have left you!

Love, uncle

Was written over her mirror in black eye liner, Lucy began stepping out when she noticed the present he left on the kitchen sink, coving her mouth she had to turn around and grab hold of Erza. Who inspected it.

"Natsu… look in the sink" Erza spoke, he turned around and widened, "T…that's …" Lucy ran out of the bathroom she couldn't take it.

In the sink, was a deceased female hand, a small blue frill that had a few holes in, and on the wedding finger, held a gold ring, inspecting the inscription closely, it said
