Fairy Basket chapter 6

Disclaimer: I don't own Fairy Tail or Fruits Basket

I realised that no one said anything about the cut on Lucy's face. I forgot to add that she had a bandaid on and she said she just bumped into a wall. Sorry I'm too lazy to change it.

Lucy's POV:

Bora's face was wildly grinning, "Your rich daddy wants that you left wants you back..."

Suddenly, I was in my spacious room at the mansion and my father was standing over me with his hand raised. "You worthless piece of shit!" He yelled while spittle was flying onto my face. "All I want to do is marry you off but you have to be stubborn and refuse them. You should have never been born!" His hand came down hard on my face and I whimpered in pain. He kicked me in the stomach over and over again with his fancy business shoes. After maybe fifteen minutes he left my room only to come back with a empty bottle of whiskey and hit my arms, legs, stomach, head and chest until the glass eventually shattered on my legs, leaving hundreds of shards of glass buried into my legs and on the carpet. I silently sobbed, scared that crying loudly would anger him further. He gave me a cold, hard and unloving glare before he turned on his heel and calmly walked out of my room...

I bolted straight up, ripped the sheets off of me and looked at my legs. They were covered in tiny thin scars from that night but there was no blood. 'It was just a dream,' I thought. I sighed and got dressed in a cute white short top with a blue heart in the middle of it and a blue short vest, both of which had golden highlights, and matching sleeves that started a bit below my shoulders and they were tied up with golden ribbons. I also had a dark blue skirt and a brown belt that was my mothers on and thigh high black socks. (Lucy's outfit after the 7 year gap. X971.) I tied my hair up in its usual side ponytail before I descended the stairs to make breakfast for everyone.

I made breakfast and called everyone down for it. Natsu rushed down the stairs so fast you'd think he hadn't seen food for weeks but Gray and Gildarts took a little longer and were still half asleep when they reached the table.

There was a knock at the door and I opened it to find a girl who looked around my age with short white hair in a pretty light pink shirt and denim shorts. "H-hello, I'm Lissanna, I'm looking for the Clive household. Do you know where I can find it?" The girl asked timidly.

"Yep. Your looking right at it." I beamed.

"Thanks, may I come in? I heard a rumour that my cousins Natsu and Gray are staying here."

I stepped inside and motioned for her to follow and led her to the dining area where everyone was sitting. Lissanna ran straight past me once she saw the three sitting down and jumped, sending a flying kick to Natsu's face. "You idiot! I was so worried about you. You up and left for three years and didn't tell anyone where you were going." Natsu got back up and didn't say a word to her, instead he chose to casually walk out of the room with quite a big bruise forming on his face.

Lissanna turned and started to talk to me. "Sorry about that. He's just so stupid sometimes. Anyway what's your name and, not to be rude, but why do you seem to be living here?"

"Oh, I'm Lucy, nice to meet you... Long story short, I'm living here because I have nowhere else to go." I answered.

She gave me a sad look. "That must've been hard."

"Uh huh," I said nervously. "I'm worried about Natsu right now, I mean he had a really big bruise forming on his face and he looked kinda wobbly."

"That idiot will be fine." She said with confidence. I was still worried about him so excused myself to look for Natsu.

Lissanna's POV:

I watched Lucy walk out of the door and I instantly stiffened. "Why did you really come here Lissanna?" Gildarts asked.

"Zeref is planning something with that girl if he allowed her to not only live here, but let her know of our curse. What's really going on?"

"I want to know what going on too." Gray said.

"Why do you think I know what's going through Zeref's head. He just said let her stay and enrol Natsu in the local school while he is living here. I'm giving him my book room so he'll live here in comfort."

"You're not telling the whole truth but I won't get anymore out of you. Anyway, does Natsu know about what'll happen once he graduates?" I asked.

"Of course he does." Gray said. "Everyone knows."

"Lucy doesn't, does she?" I asked. Gray shook his head in response. "Does she know about his true form?"

"No. We would rather she didn't." Gray said.

Lucy's POV:

I found Natsu laying on the roof in a patch of shade. I crouched next to him and poked his arm. "Natsu, are you ok?" I asked, "Does your cheek hurt?"

"No, I'm fine." He said while getting up into a sitting position.

"So, uhhh, what zodiac animal is Lissana?" I asked.

"She's the boar." He said as if it was obvious. "So. Is there something you wanted to talk about?"

"Uhhhh, not really. I just wanted to see if you were ok..." I said. "And, Umm, how did you beat up those guys the other night?"

Natsu smirked. "I'm a ninja." He said in a stupid voice and pulled a Naruto-like move with his scaly scarf acting as a makeshift ninja mask. I giggled and his face split into an enormous childish grin.

I decided to change the topic. "So Natsu, what do you like?"

"Food, not leeks though, fire and martial arts." He said.

"What? Like, right straight punch!" I punched him on the side of the his arm and it was pathetic.

Natsu burst out laughing and called it weak before correcting my fist and position. "Ok, hit me again." I complied and he laughed again. "Super weak." Natsu jumped up and demonstrated how to punch properly then started talking about all of the people he had beaten and what technique he used.

—–—–—

"Bye lovebirds." Lissanna called out as she glanced up at us and started walking away.

My face turned bright pink. "We are not!" I retorted.

"Whatever," She shrugged and continued to walk away. I yelled bye but she had already disappeared into the thick woods that surrounded the house.

I'm just about to start the next chapter. I'm way to unorganised at this but I'll try to update soon. Sorry for the long wait.
