Prologue
"What` s going on? Where am I? Where is Natsu and the rest of Fairy Tail?" Lucy asked as she was floating in what appeared to be a starry night.
"Natsu? Anybody?"
There was no answer. Lucy felt herself beginning to tear up.
"I don` t want to be alone." she wailed.
Then suddenly, she saw images of everybody in Fairy Tail appear from nowhere.
"Hey, everyone! Up here!" she cried.
Nobody responded, nor did they look up at her. Then she realized that they were all crying…standing in the rain…wearing black clothing.
"What` s wrong? Why is everyone so sad?"
Then she turned around to see Natsu on his knees…crying…in front of a gravestone. It broke Lucy` s heart to see him miserable like this.
"Natsu? What` s wrong? Please don` t cry."
She floated towards him. Once she got to his side, she looked up at the gravestone. She read the name out loud.
"Lucy Heartfillia?"
Lucy` s eyes widened.
"I-I` m dead. This is my funeral."
Lucy looked back at Natsu. He was muttering something quietly under his breath. Lucy leaned closer towards him.
"Why did she leave me? Why did she leave Fairy Tail? T-this is all my fault."
Lucy was torn apart.
"Natsu" she whispered as the vision vanished.
She was back in the starry night.
"No wait! I Want to go back! I want to go back to Natsu, and the rest of Fairy Tail! Someone! Anyone! Bring me back!"
Tears streamed down her face.
"P-please."
Shortly after, an image of the moon appeared out of nowhere. Lucy flew over to it. She saw a girl, who seemed to be about 14 years of age with long dark brown hair wearing a silver tiara with a blue stone in the smack middle of it that matched her blue velvet dress that had silver designs all over it, that appeared before her. The girl`s eyes were closed. Lucy had no idea what to think. Then the girl began to speak.
"Do you wish to go back?" she asked in a mature teenage voice. (Defiantly older than 14).
"Yes! I want to go back to Natsu and the rest of Fairy Tail!" Lucy said as formally as she could with an urge to cry.
Then the girl opened her eyes. Both of her eyes looked like glowing silver moons. Then she smiled.
"We shall meet again in the future, Lucy. But for now…"
Then the image of the moon behind her shined brightly. Lucy put her arm out in front of her to shield her eyes fro, the light. She eventually saw nothing but that glowing light all around her. Then she herd a familiar voice.
"Lucy!... Lucy! …Lucy!"
Lucy` s vision faded from the blinding light to Natsu` s worried face.
"Luce! Don` t you dare die on me!"
"N-N-Nat-su."
"Luce! Don` t worry Luce, I` m going to get you to Fairy Tail. Wendy will heal you at the infirmary."
Then Natsu picked up Lucy, bridal style, and was running back to Fairy Tail.
* in the infirmary*
Lucy woke up to Happy saying "Aye Sir!"
"Happy! Be quiet, you'll wake up Lucy!"
"Too late for that." Lucy said as she sat up.
She saw Gray, Erza, Happy and Natsu sitting in the room.
"Lucy! You` re awake!" Erza exclaimed as she went up to her and pulled her into a bone crushing hug.
"Careful Erza! You` ll make her injuries worse." Gray scolded.
Erza let go of Lucy to see her catching her breath.
"I apologize for my inconvenience. I shall allow you to strike me as punishment."
"It` s alright Erza, I forgive you."
Then Poluchka came in the room along side with Wendy.
"All of you guys must leave. This excitement could worsen her condition." Poluchka said.
Everyone left, except Natsu.
"I` m staying." He said firmly.
"No you` re not. Unless you don` t want the girl to get better."
"Please let him stay Poluchka san." Wendy said sweetly.
"I hate humans." Poluchka muttered.
Poluchka and Wendy went over to Lucy. Natsu just quietly sat in a chair on the opposite side of the room, not wanting to get in their way.
"How do you feel Lucy san?" Wendy asked
"I feel just fine actually."
"Does anything hurt at all?"
"Not really. Nothing more than a few scratches."
Poluchka narrowed her eyes.
"What` s wrong Poluchka san?"
"Well the girl nearly died out there. Even with our treatments there should be at least a few more injuries other than a few small scratches."
"What are you trying to say?"
"I` m saying that somebody must of healed her before we did."
Poluchka turned to Lucy.
"Did you see anybody other than the dragon slayer?"
"I have a name you know." Natsu muttered quietly.
Lucy was silent for a moment. 'How am I suppose to explain that girl to them?' she thought.
"N-nobody."
"Not even in a dream?"
"Nope."
Poluchka sighed.
"Then my work here is done."
As she went out the door, she said;
"Rest for today and you should be fine by tomorrow."
Then Wendy silently left the room, leaving only Natsu left in the room with Lucy. There was a long silence.
"Lucy?"
"yeah?"
"Promise me something."
Then he went up to the right side of Lucy` s bed. He kneeled down beside her bed and held her dainty hand between larger, more masculine hands.
"Promise me that you will never scare me like that ever again."
Lucy hesitated for a moment. Then she gave him an 'ok' and said.
"I promise."
I hope you liked it. There will be a follow up on this. Please comment on this.
