Lucy was like always sitting at the bar and drinking one of her signature strawberry milkshakes. When she heard a voice calling her. Lucy turned around and saw that it was none other than Natsu.

'Hey Natsu what wrong?'

Lucy could tell that something was bothering Natsu because he was serious. Now anyone that knew Natsu would know that he was NEVER serious.

'Lucy I just wanted to tell you something. It isn't that important. It's nothing really. But I thought that you would like to know because you are part of the guild and my partner and is really nice.'

Lucy wondered just how serious it was now that Natsu was babbling.

'Natsu just tell already.'

'Right. Well Lucy you know how Lisanna and I was good friends before she "died" yeah well the team and I was thinking that we would like her back.'

'Oh. Okay. I am fine with it Lisanna is such a nice girl and everything I just know it is going to be fun.'

'Lucy. It looks like you do not understand. We are kicking you out of the team. You were just a replacement for Lisanna and now that she is back we all want you to go.'

Lucy was on the brink of tears and was having trouble keeping them in.

'Okay Natsu.'

Lucy got up and pushed Natsu back because he was blocking her path to the Masters office. Lucy ran up the stairs two at a time and finally reached the door and knocked lightly.

'Come in.'

Lucy opened the door and walked in and sat in the chair. Sinking into it.

'Master I would like to quit Fairy tail.'

'Why my child I thought you loved it here?'

Now Master was on the brink of tears too and was shocked that one of his precious children wanted to quit the guild.

'I want to leave and get stronger Master so I can show my old team how strong I can get.'

'They called you weak?'

'No Master I just want to leave. Now Master. Please do not try to stop me I will probably come back maybe and show everyone how strong I have gotten.'

Master nodded. He understood Lucy's pain of people underestimating her. So he just did what Lucy wanted and held his shaky, trembling hand out for her to take. Lucy nodded and gave him her right hand where her guild mark was. Lucy stared as the Masters hand covered hers and when he removed it her precious guild mark was gone.

'Lucy. There are three things you must abide by now that you have Fairy tail. 1. You must never reveal sensitive information about Fairy Tail to others for as long as you live. 2. You must never use former contacts met through your being in the guild for personal gain. And 3. Though our paths may have diverged, you must continue to live out your life with all your might, you must never consider your own life to be something insignificant, and you must never forget about your friends for as long as you live.'

By this time both Master's and Lucy's tear were steadily flowing. Lucy took her hand away and walked to the door.

'Good bye.'

Lucy ran down the stairs went to throw open the guild doors but were beaten by someone else on the other side. Lucy looked at who the person was and saw none other than Laxus.

'Sorry.'

Was all Lucy said before pushing past him and running again back to her apartment
