The Dragon Heiress

♔4♚

Lucy didn't move from her spot. She just couldn't shake off her guilt, seeing Wendy and Carla like that.
"Wendy?" She quietly whispered.
"Yes, Tessa?"
"Y'know, Cleo and I are moving into Fairy Hills today...do you, um, could you show us around?" Lucy asked.
"Sure!" Wendy smiled, wiping away the last of her tears.

When they arrived at Fairy Hills, Lucy said she wanted to tell Wendy and Carla something important, so they went to the back where nobody could see.
"What is it?" Wendy asked.
"Are you sure about this?" Cleo whispered.
"Absolutely." Lucy replied as she removed the cloak, revealing her in only a black tank top, black pants, and dark hiking boots.
"Ahh, it feels so good to be out of that hot thing." Lucy sighed happily, pulling her hair off of her neck to fan the sweat.
"Lucy!" Wendy tackled her in a hug. "What happened? Are you okay? What are those things on your arms? Where have you been?" She asked quickly.
"Um...I was saved by Igneel and taken to the Dragon Realm. I'm perfectly fine right now. These are the Dragon marks of royalty, since apparently, I'm the princess of the dragons." Lucy said as though it were all normal.
"Princess?"
"Yeah, it turned out that my mom's the Celestial Dragon and the Queen. I even got to learn a bunch of dragon slayer magic." Lucy grinned.
"Prove it." Carla challenged.
"Okay, name a dragon slayer type."
"Fire." Carla said, and her mouth hung open when Lucy's arms and legs blazed with scarlet flames.
"Iron." Carla widened her eyes as Lucy's right arm turned silver, like iron.
"Sky."
"O swift wind that dashes through the heavens, Vernier!" Lucy shouted as the four of them began floating.
"I'm speechless." Carla admitted.
"What? Why didn't you say the other ones?" Lucy fake pouted.
"The other ones?"
"Yeah. Like Water, Lightning, Time, Ice, Lava, and a bunch more." Lucy smirked.
"You know all those?!"
"Yup." Lucy grinned.
"Wendy? Who're you talking too?" Erza asked from a distance.
"She's coming!" Lucy hissed as she hastily pulled the cloak over her head.
"Just Tessa. She said that she wants to move into Fairy Hills." Carla said swiftly.
"Oh, okay. I can help with showing her around if you'd like." Erza offered.
"Um, o-okay." Wendy said, afraid of what might happen with refusing Erza.
"Come." Erza smiled warmly and gestured for them to follow her in.
"Happy?" Lucy murmured, seeing a blue exceed flying beside Erza.
"Hi, Tessa. Hi, Wendy. Hi, Carla." Happy said in a monotone.
He didn't offer Carla any food, how strange. Lucy wondered as she scooped Cleo into her arms and followed Erza. She heard faint snoring, so she looked down to see little Cleo fast asleep.
"Aww, my little girl." Lucy whispered, brushing aside a tuft of Cleo's hair off of her snowy forehead.

"Here is Juvia Lockser's room." Erza gestured to the blue haired mage, who was sipping Earl Grey Tea and clutching a raven haired doll that looked suspiciously like Gray.
"Hello, Erza," Juvia looked up and waved a hand. "Would you guys like some tea? Juvia bought some cake earlier--" She was interrupted by a flash of scarlet zooming into an empty seat.
"I guess it's settled, then." Lucy smiled and took a seat as well, with Wendy doing the same.
"Mmm." Erza grinned after finishing her seventy-fifth slice of cake.
"Um, Erza-san? I think we should get going." Wendy said softly.
"Aww." Erza picked up a spare box of cake and walked out, Lucy (who was still holding sleepy Cleo), Wendy, Carla, and Happy following at her tail.
"And Levy McGarden's room." Erza gestured to Levy, who was lying on her bed and reading from a stack of papers.
"You're reading my story?" Lucy blurted.
"Hmm? No, this story was from Lucy Heartfilia. She was my best friend until...until..." Levy stared into the light, a trick known for preventing tears from falling.
"I understand." Lucy smiled from under the hood of the cloak. She was touched that Levy actually read the story, even after five years of her "death".

"And here's your room." Erza said, after guiding Lucy through all the rooms.
"Wow." Lucy set Cleo down on the bed as she gazed around the room, which looked very similar to one of a luxury hotel; The walls were a pale gold, the single bed had a black comforter with the fairy tail logo in a bright crimson. There was a wooden writing desk with a rotating chair, a small kitchen, and a modern-style bathroom.
"I hope you like it. We'll be having a welcoming party later, okay?" Erza smiled and raced out of the room before Lucy could say anything. When they made sure the door was closed and locked, Lucy threw off the cloak.
"Ugh. That thing is so hot." She fanned herself with her hands.
"Oww." A soft groan was heard under the cloak.
"Cleo! I'm so sorry!" Lucy lifted the exceed from under the cloak.
"It's okay," Cleo rubbed her eyes. "Who's that?" She asked, pointing to a man behind Lucy.
"Loke?!" Lucy shrieked.
"Nice room," Loke said. "Oh, hi, Wendy."
"Hi, Loke-kun," Wendy waved. "So...how was the dragon realm like? Did you see the dragons?" She turned to Lucy.
"It's like a dream castle," Lucy gushed. "And I saw all the dragons; they trained me. Your mom was tall, she looked almost exactly like you, but she had pink hair that fell to right here." Lucy held her hand to her ankle.
"That's nice to hear." Wendy beamed and made a motion as if saying: Go on. So Lucy did. She kept talking about the dragon realm and the magic she learned to Wendy, and Carla, although Loke and Cleo would frequently interrupt to add something of their own. It went on for hours until Erza peeked her head into the room.
"The party's ready." She smiled.
"Ah!" Lucy shrieked and rolled underneath the bed, hiding her face and body. "We'll be right there!" She shouted.

(A/N)
Sorry the chapter was so short, but I had a great idea:
Why don't I let you guys join the story?
It would be so much easier and much more fun! So, next chapter, I'll put up the sign up board, the form, and rules.
Bai!
