Chapter 14

Several days had passed since Lucy had been edmited to the hospital for her stomach surgery, many of the guild members had visited, even Ian and her old gang from junior high, once they had received word that Lucy was in the hospital Ian had spoken with his fiance and even his fiance agreed to postpone the wedding seeing that one of his best friends he wanted at the wedding was in hospital.

Lucy had argued with Ian even threw an apple at his head for postponing something that important but he just grinned saying it wouldn't be the same without her there, Xavier had been a mess on Saturday after his baseball match finding out about Lucy's condition and went mental at happy for not notifying him. All the cat could do was cower in Lucy's arms and chest saying Xavier was mean. Which had sent Lucy into a fit of giggles and just said to stop by her house later because she had some special fish in her fridge for him. She didn't even bother giving Natsu the key knowing he'd just jump threw her window like normal.

Erza and Gray was reluctant to go out on another date until they received a Lucy rebal wrath stating if they don't go out on another date while she's in the hospital then she'd lock them up in the guild storage room for a month with no cake or anything! So they'd gone out on the Sunday or dinner and it ended with a nightly romantic kiss which Erza had explained all the gossip to Lucy the next day with Ino and Levy there.

It was now Wednesday, the school had also been notified about Lucy's condition, and stated she won't be coming back till the Monday after, Tsunade just spoke saying for her to get plenty of rest and that the school is looking forward to it's top learner coming back bright and healthy. At the moment Lucy was wearing a tank top with a pair of baggy jeans so it wasn't tight on her stitches, Wendy had been hysterical when finding out about the blonde appendix had burst while she was on a mission but all the stellar mage could do was smile and say it wasn't her fault. It had come in handy for the stellar mage as she was able to get a lot more training done with the dragon that lived inside her body. Which was why the reason for her getting out of hospital the Wednesday when she was originally meant to be leaving on Friday. Her body had gotten new healing powers from learning with Serenity.

There was a knock on the door, Lucy looked up from where she was sitting and saw a green haired woman there, dressed in a cowgirl clothing, "Hey girl, ready to get out of this place?" that placed a grin on the stellar mages face, "Sure am Bisca, sorry for making you come out of your way to come pick me up, I could have waited till school was out for Natsu." "None worries Lucy, my little one's in day care centre at the moment so I have time, plus who'd want to wait in the hospital another 8 hours just to be discharged? When you have me to come get you."

Lucy gave a angelic laugh as she stood up, she held a hand on her stitched side trying to be a little careful as Bisca picked up the girls backpack "alright, what do you say to stopping by the guild first to get some decent grub before I drop you off back at your apartment? Mira's dying to see you. Poor woman's been stuck behind the bar dealing with Cana's constant crying about drinking contests with the master. An having to patch up Ino from her training with Laxus."

That made Lucy raise an eye brow, " that kind of makes me slightly scared to head to the guild, I know what happens when Mira's excitement gets out of hand, but… I could do with some decent food, all this hospital food tastes like rubber." That made the cowgirl laugh and help the girl out of the hospital going towards the guild.

At Magnolia high, the fairy tail group was sat around the lunch table, some picking at their food, "think Bisca's picked Lucy up by now?" asked the platinum blonde girl, they looked towards Ino, she had a few bandages around her wrist, gauze on her face, and a band aid across her nose, she had started training with Laxus on the Saturday after visiting Lucy and he wouldn't let her go easy, he made sure his training was tough on the girl. Although he knew that he'd surly get his arse kicked by Lucy later on.

"I'm sure she has Ino, don't worry although it is a little lonely at this table without her," Erza spoke while poking her cake with the fork, she loved Strawberry cake, but it didn't taste right when she knew her best friend was still sick from her stomach surgery. Natsu wasn't exactly taking it easy either, he'd been edgy and jumpy. Erza had forced him to come to school, saying if he took notes and Lucy's homework she'd love him even more then what she already did. So he was wanting to get back into the classroom, get the notes and rush off home.

Suddenly they jumped when Levy's phone started going off, she picked it up and opened up the screen seeing a text from Lucy, which made her grin, "Lucy's at the guild guy's Bisca is trying to bribe the master for a free lunch. While she's trying to avoid being squeezed to death by Mira and Lisanna." they couldn't help but chuckle as the tables mood lightened up a little more.

"Awe! I really wanted to take her home myself!" Natsu spoke pouting as he bit into a chicken leg, his nose suddenly went up into the air and then made a foul face. "them girls again, Lucy was right, that perfume is rather cheap and nasty to smell.." they turned to see Maxie, Jessica and Tessa walking up to their table, "Hey we heard about what happened to Hearty, too bad" spoke Maxie while a hand was on her hip as she flipped some hair back.

"What do you girls want?" spoke Ino from sipping her juice, "We just wanted to pay our respects to faker just cause she won us the Swim meet doesn't mean that she's on everyone's good list." Jessica added while looking down at her nails, she didn't care for the group, "And what part of Lucy is fake huh?" Erza said standing up holding the fork towards the trio. "Everything, her hair, nose, being ill and definatly them knockers she has on her chest."

Natsu soon stood up walking towards the girls, "There is nothing about her that's fake, you on the other hand, all I can smell radiating off you is fake perfume and plastic" Tessa's mouth dropped. "Excuse me pinky! Are you indicating one of us has plastic surgery?"

"Damn right, seems like its coming from this one here." he pointed to Maxie who looked just as shocked, "Now go away before I burn you all to a crisp.." his hand was about to ignite up but Gray stopped him. "Leave us and Lucy alone, she's done nothing to you so I don't see why your all envious of her." the girls stormed back off calling them every name under the sun.

They sat down and gave off a sigh, "Every day they've been coming over bugging us, your fan club is really annoying Xavier." Spoke gray as he took a bite out of Erza's cake, which earned him an evil glare. "I know, and I've told them to stay away plenty of times guess there jealous like you said they was."

The whole table gave a nod as the bell rang.

Lucy was sat at her favourite stool at the bar with Bisca at the side of her while sharing a pizza with some cheese fries, "Your right Bisca this tastes a lot better than that rubbish they served me at the hospital I totally missed Mira's cooking while being cooped up in there."

"Glad you agree, sorry it all had to happen on an eventful weekend, that Ian sure likes to put you first then his own happiness." that made the stellar mage frown slightly, she hated the fact he put his life on hold while hers was getting fixed up, "and he will get an arse kicking once this stitches are out of my side. SERIOUSLY! Why put your own wedding on hold for your friend?" Bisca thought about it while chewing on a cheesy fry. "hmmm, I can't say anything me and Al got married while you all was still stuck on that island. We would have liked you all to be there but with all the rumours we knew the guild needed an happy event."

Lucy placed a hand on the girls shoulder, "and I'm glad you did, you deserved to find your happiness. You've both got a very adorable little girl in which with all the abuse my stomach's taken I'll be surprised if I can even bare children." the girls gave a slight laugh while Mira placed some shakes onto the bar for them. "Oh I can see it now, pink haired brown eye'd babies!" giving off a sweat drop look at the elder take over mage, "not to self, have these type of conversations away from Mira…" they gave a laugh again when suddenly the guild doors opened.

"oh by the way Lucy, have you heard the rumors of a dark guild looking around for a legendary Dragon Host?" chocking on her milkshake she looked up to Mira, "What? Dragon host I've never heard anything like that." some how she managed to keep on a surprised shocked face. Even though she knew very well what one was. "Yeah, Legend has it, once every 100 years there's a certain person that will hold a dragon deep down in their body. No one knows if these legends are true or not, but we had rumours going around town lately saying that a dark guild is looking for this host. Masters looking into the matter as we speak but no one knows if it's all true." Mira answered.

"Hey, maybe we have some referance books about it, who knows Maybe it's Natsu?" the girls thought about it then shook their heads, "If that was the case then Natsu would be carrying a dragon around inside of his body instead of looking for Igneel. In any case they might come to this guild looking so we've been on high alert. Laxus has been on edge with it and kept his distance away" Answered freed as he was stood by them getting another drink off Mira.

Lucy finished up her meal and sat back on her stool, "in any case, I've never heard of anything like a dragon host, sounds like something from an Cartoon."

Although that they seem to nod and believe her, Serenity, her celestial dragon deep within her soul was getting restless, something told her this danger would be coming their way sooner than they think.

" hey I've got an idea, to make up for all the trouble I caused this past weekend why don't we head to my parents mansion this weekend? You know for a relaxing break?" they looked to Lucy and smiled nodding, "that would be great! I'll have a word with the master about it Lucy. A weekend at a privet beach!" Again Mira had sparkles in her eye's.

While Lucy was deep thinking 'and I can try finding some relevant text towards what my mother did when she sealed Serenity inside of me'
