I couldn't stand to look at Lucy. I've never seen her so...lost. She would battle the same, but it wouldn't be as enjoyable. Even when Aquarius showed up, Lucy wouldn't even try to say anything to her. She wouldn't even put any effort into trying to get a discount from any of the stores we passed by.

"Lucy," I said when we got home from a long and exhausting day of work. "He'll come back."

She slammed her hand on the nightstand, "That's what you said yesterday. The day before. And the day before that and every other day since he left." I opened my mouth to say something but quickly regretting saying anything else that would make her even more upset.

Later that night I was lying in my bed staring at the ceiling when I heard Lucy start to cry. I looked over at her and through the light of the moon beaming in from the window I could see that she was curled up into a ball with her hands on her head. I pushed the covers off of myself and I crawled under Lucy's covers and held her close.

When I woke up that morning Lucy was missing. There was a note in an envelope with my name written on it. Though the ink was smeared. I opened the letter.

Erza,
I know how to get Natsu back. He knows when I need him the most. He will come back and if he doesn't...I won't be here anymore. If that is to happen, give my book to Levy. Also, tell the guild that my time there was the best and I couldn't have wished for better. Tell Gray to keep his clothes on. Tell Juvia to chill and keep being herself in front of Gray. Erza, keep fighting.

Last of all, tell Natsu I love him.

Lucy

I held the letter shakily in my hand. I requiped into my armor and ran straight for the guild.

When I got there I found Gray and showed him the letter.

"I may have an idea of where she might be." Gray said firmly.

"Where?" I asked.

"Do you remember when you fought off the Phantom guild?" I nodded. "Well, before that, Natsu had saved Lucy from a tower that she jumped out of trying to escape the Phantom guild master. Natsu, from out of the blue, caught her and saved her from dying. That might be where she is."

I recalled that and put my hand on his shoulder. "We don't have much time. We must hurry."
