"Lu-chan! Wake up!" Levy shook Lucy. "Ngh..." Lucy groaned as she blinked open her eyes, "CRAP! What time is it?!" Levy sighed, "Five more minutes left."

"NOOOOOO!" Lucy jumped up from bed and quickly ran towards the small closet and changed into her school uniform. Lucy checked her digital watch, seeing that there's only three minutes left. "LEVY! I AM SO DRAGGING YOU AGAIN! ERZA IS SOOOO DEAD FOR DITCHING ME!" Lucy screamed as she had a dark aura forming around her.

Readers, please sympathize the Levy who is now being dragged by a monster.

Lucy dragged Levy as she ran faster than ever, screaming random rubbish about killing Erza. "Lu-chan..." Levy spoke as she saw stars, and it seemed as if her soul has already left her body. (A/N: I'M SORRY LEVY~ But aha, kind of... funny...)

With Lucy's monstrous speed, within three minutes, they have already arrived at school.

Lucy panted as she fished out her phone from her pocket. She texted Erza through Fairybook.

LuckyLUSHEEEEE (Lucy): ERZA *BLEEP* SCARLET, YOU *BLEEP* *BLEEP* FOR DITCHING ME *BLEEP* I WILL HUNT YOUR FAMILY DOWN AND *BLEEP* KILL THEM *BLEEP*

StarrySharpiez (Erza): Lucy, relax. What's up?

LuckyLUSHEEEEE: *BLEEP* ERZA! *BLEEP* YOU FOR DITCHING US! @&$#%ASDFGHJKL$!&@ (incomprehensible swearing)

"Ring..." The school bell rang. Lucy huffed as she turned her head to face Levy. Breathing in heavily, she forced a smile. "Levy, let's go to class, shall WE?" She asked while smiling, tilting her head a little.

"H-hai! (Okay)" Levy quickly replied. This was something you had to know: Lucy is a monster when she's angry... Lucy walked to class, bag slung over one shoulder. Lucy slammed open the class door, causing the old wooden door to creak a little when opened.

Lucy angrily walked over to her seat and sat down. On the other hand... "Erza, why did you ditch us today?!" Levy hissed softly. Erza replied calmly, "No, no. I had council stuff and I forgot about you guys..."

"Well then, prepare for your death... from Lu..." Levy softly whispered, as both girls started shivering.

Natsu and Lucy did not talk, not verbally, no eye language, nothing. While Gildarts-sensei was teaching, Lucy's brain was burning and her stomach churned. She did NOT feel good at all. Lucy was sweating profusely and she felt hot. "Right, Lucy, care to explain what is cost price, selling price and earnings?" Gildarts-sensei asked before knitting his brows in sorry. "Lucy?" He repeated.

Lucy started to sweat more. "Earnings... is also... known as profit. To find it you have to..." Lucy softly spoke, until she couldn't take it anymore. She felt her eyelids getting heavier... there and then, her forehead knocked onto the table.

"Lucy!" was the last thing she heard. Sounded like Gildarts-sensei...

"Gildarts-sensei! I'll carry Lucy to the nurse now!" Erza leapt from her seat. Gildarts-sensei gave a curt nod and Erza quickly slung one of Lucy's hand over her shoulder and walked to the nurse's room.

Porlyusica, the head nurse, approached Erza and Lucy. "Ah, what has happened to this fine maiden?" Porlyusica asked politely, furrowing her brows at Lucy as Lucy breathed heavily. "Perhaps a fever." Erza answered, looking at her best friend.

"Okay, that should do it." After treating Lucy, Porlyusica finally spoke up, and continued on, "Does she have any family to pick her up?" Erza averted her gaze to another direction, "Not really. Her parents are overseas." "My, then she'll be staying her till school is over, that is." Porlyusica replied.

Erza dragged her feet back to class. She knew Lucy hated being alone...

*Flashback of Lucy's past*
"Papa..." Lucy tugged on the hem of Jude's tuxedo, "Are you going away, again?" Jude crouched down, patting Lucy's head. "Lucy honey, there's many things papa has to do. But, for you and mama. Right?" Lucy sniffled as she nodded yes slowly.

"Bye papa..." She softly said, crying. Lucy's father was always traveling, a very busy businessman known by many worldwide. Lucy's mother, on the other hand, was an international model.

...always leaving her by her own.

Scared of thunder,
rain,
people,
life.

"ERZA SCARLET!" Gildarts-sensei's voice boomed, breaking Erza from her reverie. "Yes?" She gulped. "Daydreaming in my class, seems like it?" He asked, eyeing her. "S-sorry!" Erza quickly, presidents of school can't get detention or such! Thankfully, Gildarts-sensei gave her a second chance.

School was finally over. Erza and Levy raced to the nurse's room, hunting for Lucy. They spotted Lucy who was visibly having a nightmare. Lucy kicked the bed sheets as she breathed heavily. "Lucy!" Erza shook Lucy. Lucy woke up with her breathing ragged.

Lucy shook the nightmare off her mind. The people who accompanied her when she was alone were them. Erza and Levy. Lucy smiled as she rubbed the back of her head.

They went home. On the way home, Erza informed Lucy, "Hey, Lucy. Sports day is near, y'know, like about, a week more or so. By then, you'd be alive and kicking!" Lucy clenched her fists and smiled, "Sureeeee. But, but, but! Who ditched Levy-chan and me this morninggg?" She dragged her every words. "Eto (um)..." Erza gulped and if looks could kill, she won't just wither. She'd be hitting the graveyard, hard.
