Good Meets Bad
Chapter 11 – A Fighter
A/N: Yay~ An update. But, I warn those who don't like too much... GORE. I can't say that it is gore but it's like... hmm... too many bones cracking? XD But if you don't like that then you can't read the chapter =w= I'm sorry it took me so long, I had many things on my mind and I'm busy with school. But vacation is near (YAAAAAY) so it means... UPDATES! Wahahaha! It still depends though! ^^
Once again, thank you Ella for the beta read chapter :3

The silenced seemed to eat away at everyone as Lucy dropped her hand, her hair dropping down to cover the mark behind her neck. She stuffed her hands in the pockets of her skirt, eyeing the reactions of the Student Council. The breeze went past them and her blazer flapped in the wind, her tie flipping and showing the small clock underneath.
Her smirk dropped into a thin line and she sighed, looking at the gang from earlier, "We'll talk but let's not do it here."
Some of them nodded and they left the gate normally while others jumped up high over the walls. Lucy stared up at the man who sat on the wall for a while, giving her a nod. The blonde dipped her head a little and the man smirked, saluting her before jumping down to the other side.
Lucy remained gazing at the spot where the man was but then she heard a yelp. She looked over her shoulder and saw Levy and the others.
"Ah," she said, closing her eyes, "I have to go."
Jellal snapped out of his surprised state and he reached out at Lucy, "Wait, where are you going?"
Lucy jumped up and stood on the wall, "…I'm going to finish a fight." With that, she jumped down.
"Step forward."
A few people stepped forward and bowed with one hand across their chest. A man with blonde hair spoke, "We have done as you told, Lucia-sama."
The woman sitting on a couch sighed and massaged her temples. "Stop using the nickname, it's no use. They already know," she mumbled, distress taking over her features, "You may start calling me by my real name."
"Lucy-sama."
The said woman raised a brow and she hummed in question. A woman with short white hair spoke, "The Bloody Rose gang is waiting for you."
Lucy frowned and crossed her arms over her chest, "Can't they wait? I said I'll talk to them but not now," She stood up and placed a hand on her hip, looking down at the silver-haired woman, "Tell them I'll be there in a few minutes."
She pulled out her phone, looking for any new messages and she inhaled, staring up at the sky – apparently, the ceiling was made of glass. She closed her eyes and stuffed one hand in the pocket of her red checkered plaid skirt.
She allowed the breeze to blow her hair and skirt back, giving her a refreshed feeling. She opened her eyes a little and her lips tugged upwards in a smirk.
"Here I go, mother."
Just as the words left her lips, the doors leading to the warehouse – yes, she was in a warehouse – was slammed open by the Blood Rose's leader, Ikaruga.
Lucy smirked and shifted her weight onto one leg, "Don't tell me I'm going to battle you all?"
"What, you're scared?" Someone from the other gang sneered and grinned evilly, "You're scared!"
"Not really," The blonde said and shrugged, popping a piece of Mentos in her mouth, "It's just that, I feel a little too high. I mean, I'm going to battle a traitor," Her eyes darted over to a man with gray hair. The breeze passed by again and her hair was blown to the side, "Aren't I just too fortunate?"
"Why you…" Ikaruga growled, glaring at the blonde, "Don't get so cocky, bitch! We're older than you and I have far more experience than you! My body went through great pain that even your body hasn't felt yet! And you," She hissed and was now behind Lucy – who wasn't surprised, "Need to feel that pain!"
Lucy sighed, "People are just so stubborn nowadays."
As Ikaruga slashed her sword – she was just too traditional – Lucy jumped up and used Ikaruga's head as a stepping stone. She back flipped in midair and landed safely on one of the bars attached to the walls of the warehouse. She whistled and eyed Ikaruga's tiny blob of pink hair, "Look how high I jumped! This is a new record, thanks to Ikaruga's awfully tall posture, of course."
Another woman from their group gritted her teeth in anger and she ran, "YOU BITCH!" She yelled and a man ran to her. She raised her foot and placed it on the man's cupped hands. The man threw her upward and she headed towards Lucy who waved her hand.
"Yo."
The woman's eyes widened as she slowly looked to the side. Lucy was falling backwards with her arms crossed over her chest, smiling at the woman as she descended down. The woman looked ahead of her and screeched as her face hit the bar that Lucy was standing on and she fell down. The sound of her bones breaking was heard as her body dropped down and Lucy flipped in the air. She landed in front of the woman's body on one knee, both hands touching the ground.
Lucy jumped high up in the air as another woman ran towards her, long nails extended towards her. The blonde landed on her shoulders and the woman screamed in pain as she felt her bones crush due to Lucy's heavy landing. The War Maiden smirked and jumped on her shoulders again. After hearing one more satisfying scream, she hopped off and allowed the girl to wither in pain.
She walked towards Ikaruga who was being covered by three men and five women. Lucy pursed her lips and ran forwards. She gave one of the men a high kick, her weight behind her. Her foot met the man's temple and he was knocked out.
"Instant knock out, just like Analee said," Lucy thought and she dodged a punch. A brown-haired woman aimed a kick and Lucy bended backwards. She stared at the leg that was only centimeters away from her face. Grinning, Lucy straightened her back and raised her leg, slamming her heel down on the woman's head.
A punch was aimed towards Lucy's face and she gripped the fist, smiling. She stuffed her free hand in the pocket of her skirt, "Hi!"
Lucy gripped the woman's fist tighter and held her wrist with her other hand. Counting to three, Lucy threw the woman behind her and she ran towards the two men. She blew her bangs out of her eye, "I forgot my gun, damn."
"We won't let you lay a finger on Ikaruga-sama!" A gray-haired man yelled, whose name was Kei. The man jumped in surprise as his team mate, who was just behind him, fell backwards with Lucy's foot stuck to his face. Lucy landed behind Kei with her head hung low, a smirk present on her face.
She tilted her head backwards and looked down at Kei, "Oh? You say that but she's already within my grasp." She stepped aside and Kei's eyes widened. There, Ikaruga stood, with Lucy's gang around her. One was behind her, a gun pointed at Ikaruga's forehead. Three were in front of her, holding guns as well.
Kei's eyes widened.
"H-How did you… I thought you were the only best in your gang?" He stammered, his heart beating rapidly against his chest. Ikaruga gritted her teeth, one wrong move and her life would vanish.
Lucy raised a brow, her lips curling upwards, "You're wrong. As long as I'm here, their strength can be combined to be something even more powerful than me," she grinned evilly, "That's what our gang is."
"But unfortunately," She closed her eyes and bended down, her leg raised up for a high kick, "You won't be able to see what comes after, such a celebration," she inhaled, "doesn't deserve to be witnessed by the likes of you!"
CRACK! THUD!
Lucy straightened her back and stuffed one hand in the pocket of her skirt, the other flipping her hair over her shoulder. She looked behind her and smiled curtly, "I'll let you see your leader die before your very own eyes, just before you die as well."
The blonde woman raised her hand, "Fire."
"STOP IT!"
Tears slid down Kei's cheeks as he watched Lucy's gang pull the triggers of their guns. Multiple bullets hit Ikaruga and the woman's eyes fluttered close, her body plummeting down.
Kei clenched his jaw, "M-Mother…"
Lucy blinked, "She's your what?"
A shadow casted over Kei's eyes and he gritted his teeth. He raised his head, a ferocious look on his face. He glared at Lucy and bared his teeth, "She's my mother, you fucking bitch!" He ran forwards and pulled out a gun. He aimed it at Lucy, "Die!"
"Oops!" Lucy beamed and moved her head to the side, the bullet flying past her ear. She smiled cheerfully, "Yay! I dodged it!"
Kei gritted his teeth harder, "Why… are you so carefree?"
Lucy's smile dropped and she stared at the man with a blank expression on her face. She raised her hand, signaling her gang to stop moving.
"How can you act so cheerfully… when you've barely missed a bullet, when you've killed countless people…" Kei growled, "HOW?"
Lucy's lips tightened into a straight line, "Everyone is after the item and I only exist to protect it. I care about the item more than I care about my life. But if I care less about my life, then how will I be able to protect it? My parents are dead and they were the previous leaders of this gang. I was trained to be the successor; I do not want to fail."
"That's a pointless reason, Heartfilia!" Kei shouted, teeth grinding against each other, "What reason do you have to even kill my mother?"
"She was going to take away the item!"
"SO? Are you that greedy?"
Lucy inhaled sharply, trying to stay calm, she didn't want to snap or else she really might kill Kei – a friend who left her, "The item was given to me from my mother as a Christmas gift. I cannot just give it away."
Kei went silent and he stared at Lucy who had a blank face, though, he could see the pain in her eyes. He may be her enemy now but he did become her friend so he saw through her façade. "Even so… you shouldn't have killed my mother. You could have negotiated with her," Kei said, choking on the last word, "Now… she's dead."
Lucy looked down at him with hard eyes, "My mother and father were killed a long time ago by every gang's leader, meaning your mother was involved, other mothers and fathers killed two parents for the item."
Kei sweated, his eyes widening.
"They killed them just for a thing! THEY KILLED MY ONLY FAMILY!"
