Possession

"Don't go taking what's mine" He said, making my heart skip a beat and then at that very moment I realized that this is not a matter of forever its the matter for an eternity. Especially when time started flowing the wrong way and it was too late when I realized that I've fallen a lot more deeper than I thought.

"Lucy..." A pink haired mage said as he mumble the name of his partner while smiling, one would even think what kind of dream is he having. "Zzzzz"

10:01

...

Its a very beautiful morning, a very peaceful morning and our dear heroine is still asleep well not until a loud bang was heard.

"Where's Natsu!?" A scarlet haired mage said as she went inside the window she just destroyed

"Oi..Erza! Calm down! Stop breaking through the window!"

"Calm down!? Gray how do you expect me to calm down...Master...just told us that..she...Lucy...is...!" The scarlet haired girl said as she slumped down the floor crying. Yes, she is crying...the strongest girl mage of the number one guild in Magnolia, Fairy Tail's Titania is crying. No one who thought that this girl who is in the middle of crying is that mage.

As she drown herself with her tears, slumping there, helpless and in despair. While the Ice mage, Gray Fullbuster just stood there. Clenching his fist so hard that its turning white. Even him, he wants to cry...but he's been doing his best not to cry. At least not in front of her and the others. That's why he's been hurting himself through physical pain in order to ease the pain in his heart.

"Damn! Where the heck is he!?" He exclaimed. "Didn't Mira said he's here in Lucy's place"

"Natsu!...Natsu where are you!" A teary eyed exceed said as he fly around the place to search for his friend.

"Lucy...Lucy...She..." Erza said as she continue to sob, her heart is in so much pain. Just this morning their master told them about Lucy, unable to believe anything about it she immediately went over to Lucy's place. But it took them two hours before they finally found Lucy's apartment. Why? Well its because Lucy coated the whole place with a coating potion magic in order to hide her apartment. But the question as to why she did it? No one knows the answer yet.

"Gray! Erza! I found Natsu!" Happy exclaimed and the two of them immediately rush to where Happy is. There they found the pink haired mage lying on the kitchen floor with a pillow and a blanket with a goofy smile in his sleep. Annoyed by it, Gray stomp Natsu's face of course he's mad at by what the ice mage have done. "Oi! WHO THE HECK DARED TO KICK ME IN MY FACE! I'M STILL SLEEPING DAMN IT!" Natsu said as he roared out in anger.

"Naaaatsu!" Exclaimed by the crying exceed as he jumps towards Natsu and hug him.

"Whaa..Happy. What's wrong why are you crying?" Natsu asked, worried that his best pal is crying.

"Tch. You really don't know a thing do you" irritably said by Gray

"Huh..What the hell do you want!?" Natsu said. "Natsu! Stop! Enough already!" Erza exclaimed but her voice waver as she continue to cry.

"Whaaa...Erza's here and...she...she's crying." Natsu said. Then he look at Erza, to Gray and back to Happy. He realized that something is happening and a very bad thing must have happened. Then he realize that their gang is missing someone, a certain celestial blonde mage is missing he thought.

"Lucy" The moment he said that mage's name, Erza felt her knees weaken as she slumped down with the wall to help her, Gray was seething with anger and Happy is still crying. "Where is Lucy?" He asked as he continue to look around but still nothing. Not a sight of the blonde.

"Ah! That's right. I was drinking hot chocolate with Luce and then suddenly everything got blurry and I must have fell asleep here" Then with Happy still crying in his arms, he looked around the place to search for the blonde. The bedroom, living room, bathroom...nope still not a sight of her.

"Err...Guys? Where's Lucy?" He asked.

"..."

"Did she asked you to watch her place or something?" He said, this time he's having a weird feeling about what's going on. The heavy atmosphere, the crying titania, the quiet and still fully clothed ice mage, Happy...who's been holding onto him and Lucy...Lucy who's been missing. He didn't like it. Not any of it.

"Oh...wait I'll find Lucy at the city, She might be at the bookstore or maybe at the market" He said as he laugh, trying to ease the tension between his nakama.

"Stop it Natsu" Erza said, finally stopping her tears.

"Huh? Stop what?" Natsu said.

"Lu...cy" She said...but it seems like the cork she had put to her tears wasn't strong enough to stop her tears from falling. It even feels like that even saying her name is a very hard thing to do.

"Wha...what's with Lucy and...why is Erza crying?" Natsu asked, a little creep out because Erza Scarlet, is crying. "Wha..what's with you Erza? Did someone ate your strawberry cake?" He said as he try to joke around. "Oh...Happy did Lily and Charle finally got together? Is that why you're crying?"

"..."

Still nothing.

"Guys! What's with you!" Natsu exclaimed "Why are you acting as if someone passed away!? Anyway where's Lucy!?"

"..."

"Argh! Sheesh! If you won't tell me anything then I'll just look for her." Natsu said, annoyed by the silence.

"Lucy...she's...gone" Gray said, stopping him from his tracks.

"Go...gone?" Natsu's eyes widen in shock, then he tried to laugh it out "Ahaha...so she went on a mission alone. Gee, what's with her!? Not inviting us.A..aha.. .ha..."

"..."

Natsu knew it. The moment he saw each one of their expression. "Ha..ha...you...guys must be kidding me" He said as he voice wavers "Gray...stop joking around...just...tell me...that she's on a mission...She...can't possibly be gone...right?"

Erza only shook her head, Grey's lips has been bleeding since he's bit it so hard and Happy's crying voice is the only thing that they can hear in Lucy's apartment.

"I get it! You guys win, see you got me already!?" Natsu said as he feels his whole body tremble "So stop kidding around!"

"We're not kidding" Gray said.

"Then what! Tell me the truth! What do you mean Lucy's gone!?" He yelled as he grab Gray by his shirt. "She can't be gone!"

"Natsu...get this inside of your head. She's gone. Lucy's gone" Gray said, his dark blue eyes staring at nothing. Annoyed by his words Natsu punch him at his face. Nothing new, its the usual fight however this time Gray didn't hit him back, he just lied down there on the floor.

"Natsu! Stop it!" Happy said as he tackled towards him "Master! Master told us this morning...Lucy...she...Uuuuuuwaahaaaa"

"Ha...happy" Natsu was so shocked to see Happy crying like that. Because this is a first for him, to see the blue cat cry like this "I..its okay, Happy don't cry..okay stop it..I get it..."

"No!" Happy exclaimed as his tears continue to fall "Natsu doesn't know anything! You don't get anything!"

"..."

"Lucy...she's gone...Master told us...Lucy will never come back. She's gone...she sacrifice herself for us, for Magnolia, for Fiore" Happy exclaimed as his tears continue to fall endlessly. "She...might even be...dead already."

The thought of their precious nakama, Lucy's death...made it even worst. Erza's tears is endless, Happy continue to cry out in pain and Gray lies down on the cold floor with his tears...finally falling.

Natsu...

he backs down and fall in the process, he remember last night, Lucy...the reason...for her sad expression and for her unseen tears. He finally knew why. Lucy knows that this is going to happen, she knows that she'll be leaving them, she knows it...and that's why she put a sleeping potion to his drink...she knows this might happen...that's why she leave without saying anything. But what hurts him the most is that...he wasn't able to realized the reason to those fake smiles and that he wasn't able to do anything for her. TICK TOCK. TICK TOCK.

.Mail. . .

.Natsu .Gray .Happy .Erza

. .FROM. Lucy Heartfilia.

The four of them immediately stood up as they rush towards the place where the weird sound is coming from and there they saw where its coming from...Erza touch Lucy's diary which is place on top of her bed and the weird song stop. "Erza?"

"Lu...Lucy's letter for us." She said as she showed them four letters with their names on it.

Happy immediately grab his share of the letter and so Erza handed in Gray and Natsu's share of the letter and just when Erza's about to open Lucy's diary suddenly a 3D memo appeared.

Hmm..I wonder what this says. Erza thought and so she read the memo that appeared on top of it and read it aloud "Boo! Boo! You can't open this! Only Natsu Dragneel can...this is Lucy's diary!"

"Hmm..I see only Natsu is allowed to read this diary" Erza said

"Eh How come its only for Natsu!?" Happy asked as he whine at him.

"I don't know don't ask me" Natsu said

"Anyway here..." Erza said as she smiled sadly "Lucy wants you to have this."

"Oh.." He said with a sad voice, usually he'd be thrilled to read her diary but right now...the thought of her gone is what really matters now but the moment he touched the black covered diary suddenly a flash of light appears and the letters with their names on started glowing, as it open by itself then all four of them gasp as they hear her voice.

"Dear Erza, Happy,Gray and Natsu,

I know this is too sudden, but you see I've finally decided to do this.

I'm sorry for deciding this on my own but I'm very thankful for everything.

.

"Lucy!" Natsu exclaimed "Where are you! I'm gonna save you!"

"Natsu stop it." Gray said with his bangs covering his eyes "This is a magic infused telegram"

.

Natsu might think of saving me but really I'm fine...Besides...*sniff* I think I'm dead by the time

you read this letter *sniff* Ah...sheesh why am I crying. I was even planning on doing this coolly.

Happy, you're one of the closest friends I ever have. Being with Happy really makes me Happy.

I've always been save by you and you were always there to cheer me up. I'm reall happy to have met you.

The time I spent with you

will forever stay in my heart. Do your best always!

.

"Waaaaaaaaa...Lucy...don't go...I...can't be happy anymore if...if you're gone" Happy said as continue to bawl his eyes out.

.

Erza, Even though Natsu, Gray and Happy told me that you're scary I just really can't think of you. A very beautiful person as someone who is

scary. But I have to admit I was a little scared to see you and honestly speaking at first I thought that you are different, that you are strong and

that you're a mature person who can control her emotions well. Those words you said during your battle with the phantom lord, even now I still treasure those words. A strong and can stand alone mage But I guess I was wrong, as I spend my time with you...I realized that Erza is just like

any normal girl out there, who loves cute things and is just your typical girl in love. I wish you all the best...I want Erza to be just Erza even though you don't have to act strong in front of others and just be honest to yourself and HIM...you'll be fine. Definitely.

.

"Lucy...Lucy..."Erza said as she cry. How could I be me...you're gone...how do you expect me to be me? She thought to herself as she cry there silently.

Gray's really strong, you're also very smart, cool and handsome. hmmm..the only problem is I guess...your stripping habits? Haha, Just kidding. Gray..you just have to remain like that and you're perfect. Even though sometimes you act cold...you are always there for your nakama, even though you always fought with Natsu...I always know that you care for him and look out for him. I've always been protected by you...but sometimes I feel sorry because I can't do a thing when you guys are in trouble but despite all that...I want you to be happy. Besides I just know that Gray can do it besides I really think that your magic is very beautiful. Just stay the same and Gray will always be someone important for everyone.

.

Gray was quiet, but his tears continue to fall. All the physical pain he's been doing can never amount to the pain he's been feeling. For him, Lucy is important. She's not just a nakama. For him, Lucy Heartfilia is a very special girl.

And lastly Natsu...I know that right now you might be mad at me for deciding things like this but you know

I'm really grateful to you *sniffs* I'm so grateful because I met you and Happy at Hargeon. You invited me to Fairy Tail, showed me the importance of nakama and family. You gave me the courage to stood up to my father, you were always there to protect this weak me. You've always given me something and I'm so weak that I can't even protect you. But this time around I want to protect you and everyone from fairy tail. Haaaa..sheesh what am I doing still crying.

*sniff* I guess if I'm gonna leave you guys, I'll be regretting a lot of things *sniff* Haaaa I still want to go on missions together, spend more time together.

But I guess this is it. Natsu...I'm gonna miss you. I'm gonna miss you guys.

Natsu, *whispers* FOR ETERNITY.

With Lucy's last words to Natsu, she whispered it to him. With her everything but then the letter started to close up again as it fell down the ground. Happy desperately catch his letter before it hits the floor. With his small paws, he's holding the paper tightly to his chest as he continue to cry. Gray, as soon as he grab his letter, he left Lucy's apartment and went somewhere, Erza with her letter and together with Happy she also left the blonde haired mage's apartment.

Leaving behind Natsu.

He stood there, with the letter on his right hand, he clench into it tightly. He placed Lucy's diary on top of her bed and the moment he let it go, His tears fall, his onyx eyes is clouded by the tears coming from him. He silently cry there...then he remembers it. Lucy's whispered words to him.

"Natsu, I will love you, For Eternity"

"Arrrrgh!" Natsu roared both in anger and pain "What's with that, Luce."

"I don't need Eternity" He said to no one as his tears continue to fall "What I want is You"
