Previously on What Doesn't Kill You Makes You Stronger!
And the fight we have been anticipating for, the legendary dragon slayer, Natsu Dragoneel! Against the newcomer Claire Lunairs!
I have no idea how I will beat him using just my Celestial Stardust dragon slayer magic!
LIGHTNING FIRE DRAGON MODE!
She couldn't hold her magic anymore as the black of her hair turned golden and her one blue eyes turned brown.
The second shocking part to it was that her teammates disappeared.
YOU NATSU! YOU WERE THAT KEY!
Natsu still didn't say a word as she went up on her tipi-toes and kissed the boy on his forehead.
This match is over. I AM LUCY OF THE HEARTFILLA FAMILY! I WILL COMPETE IN TOMORROW'S ELIMINATION ROUND! She turned back at Natsu with tears in her eyes. EVEN IF I HAVE TO DO IT ALONE!
Chapter 6: Jealousy
She looked around and didn't see master. That's not a good sign. Their screams did not stop as they surrounded her with their harsh words stabbing her in the back like daggers. They accused her of something she didn't do. How could her family do something like that to her!? Then her role model came up to her and gave her, what seemed like, the worst slap of her life.
"You blonde! How could you!" She screamed as her hand slapped the poor girl in the face. The mob stood there ashamed at the blonde when she had the nerve to walk back into the guild hall. She then took her leg back as far as she could and kicked poor Lucy in the chest.
As the foot hit her chest, blood flew out of her mouth. She could barely stand up again and as she did her eyes met other furious eyes.
"You liar, you traitor!" They yelled at her as she slowly backed up the wall, she cried out his name but he didn't respond, just stood there silent then turned away.
"Stop!" she yelled, "Please, I'm innocent!" They did as she told. Lucy Heartfilla could not stop the tears as they streamed down her face. All of them looked down at her with disgust clearly written on their faces. Even he was looking at her with this disgusted yet confused face. A tear rolled down from his left eye as only a word could escape his lips.
"Why?"
Natsu just sat there. The bar wasn't as rowdy as usual. To tell the truth it was nowhere near as rowdy. Natsu's legs were folded like a pretzel. He sat at the window looking at the stars. Some weren't present at the bar. Erza, Gray, Wendy, and Juvia sat at a table but was silent. Gray didn't even strip. Mirajane wasn't present at the bar. Cana went on a walk without a beer bottle in her hand. Levy was also not present. Gajeel also took his leave. Lisanna overlooked Natsu from a distance not messing up his train of thought. She kept on thinking of revenge. It was odd how much she thought of it. All she knew was that she had to get revenge. To remind her to never mess with her again.
Erza declared that she was going out. That left another person absent from the bar. Master and Mavis sat at the bar, team Laxus sat at a table and at another sat Droy and Jet, seeking their Levy. Natsu didn't touch the food Happy left out. Happy gave up on trying to make Natsu eat so Happy just sat on Natsu's shoulder. Natsu didn't mind because he was so absorbed in his own thoughts of that day that he didn't notice.
Levy sat in the library. It was the only place she could let her feelings out by reading. Maybe a romance novel or one about a bunch of friends would be her usual choice. Today she walked through the children's isle and picked up a book Key of the Starry Sky. She examined it for a second. It was one of the objects that reminded her of Lucy. She picked it up and walked over to the couch.
"You seem quite down," A voice stated from behind Levy as she quickly jumped up only to see that it was her friend, Gajeel.
"You okay from earlier?" Gajeel asked as he took the seat next to her. Just the sad expression on her face answered the question.
"The guild was never the same after bunny girl left. Today was hard for all of us including me." Gajeel stated as he sat back in the chair with his arms behind his head.
"What do you mean? I never knew that you missed Lu-chan."
"Well now I don't have any background dancers for my show!"
"Hah very funny," Levy responded sarcastically.
"Plus I felt bad for what I did it the past," Gajeel stated. This got Levy's attention. "Remember when I was part of a dark guild?" Gajeel started. Levy nodded back. "We captured Lucy for money and I just followed the rules because I was just doing what I was told. Anyways I started to beat her up and I told her to give up. She said that her friends would come for her no matter what. And she was right. Trust me she was the most persistent person I know other than Natsu." That part of the story caused Levy to giggle.
"Anyways I never really made up for hurting Lucy. I felt even worse when she left, like a lifetime of guilt. I couldn't get over the fact that I had almost killed one of my guild mates…" Then Gajeel stopped. His shaggy black hair shadowed over his eyes. Levy couldn't help but hug him. Gajeel was surprised when she had done that but Gajeel then allowed the bluenette to do as so.
"We need to get back," Levy started, "We need to have enough energy for tomorrow."
"Yeah let's go," Gajeel stated as they walked back in silence.
Ezra walked through the streets alone looking up at the sky past the clouds seeing the sky. Seeing Lucy again gave her a huge amount of guilt. She knew that she couldn't be the only one suffering from it. Just a year ago she had betrayed a friend and there was not much she could do about it. She tried to forget it but she couldn't. She had only watched. Ezra turned the corner. In the alley, there was a hooded figure. Ezra approached it and stood on the opposite side of the alleyway.
"'Bolt told me about the whole thing," the hooded figure said obviously talking about the whole Lucy incident.
"Oh really I didn't see him there," Ezra responded.
"I wanted to know how you responded to it," The hooded figure stated as he took off his hood. There stood Jellal Fernandez.
"I don't know," Scarlet responded.
"You don't have to hide it, Scarlet," Jellal comforted, "I can hear the pain in your voice."
She didn't hold it in anymore. Ezra couldn't control the tears coming down her face as she wiped them away but they just came on coming. Jellal stepped towards her and hugged her with all of his might.
"She- she was all alone and- and- I left her," Ezra sniffled.
"It's okay." Jellal stated as he patted her back. "You will be all right."
Mira was still on the streets as the clock struck 12. She then decided to go back to the guild's bar only to meet Laxus outside.
"I know you don't care," Mira started, "But your own's and Sting's power is now useless against Lucy,"
"Yeah but that doesn't make her stronger than me," Laxus responded.
"That is true." They stood in silence.
"Mavis is thinking of her plan," Mira stated.
"I don't feel the same," Laxus stated which was completely off topic.
"What do you mean?"
"Well usually Salamander is running through the streets saying I'm pumped up for the next fight or something but never have I seen him like this. It would be normal for someone to feel like that though after meeting your long lost friend."
"Well, I guess."
Natsu's blank eyes continued to stare out the window.
"I'm the key? What does that even mean?" He thought.
A hand stopped Natsu's thoughts as Lisanna stood behind him with a troubled look on her face.
"Are you okay?'" Lisanna asked but Natsu didn't turn around.
"Yeah I'm fine," Natsu answered.
"Come on you didn't fool me for a second," Lisanna said as she made herself comfortable on the other side of the window ledge.
"Do you really think it was her?" Natsu asked
"What?" Lisanna questioned.
"That day, did she really hurt you? I don't think she would ever do that!" Lisanna stayed quiet, "In the past all she has ever done was forgive people for hurting her. First Gajeel and then her dad. I don't think she would ever hurt you like that?"
"I don't know what to say she left evidence that she did! I saw it with my own eyes."
"Well, all of a sudden I feel like what you are saying is crap."
Well the next chapter is out about what had happened in the past so you can read it EXTREMELY SOON BECAUSE ITS FINISHED!
