Fairy Tail forever! Right?

Chapter 18

"-o think she's okay?"

"yeah don't worry Yukino, can you try to find Frosch for Rogue please? Frosch is lost again!"

"Huh? N-Ow, what was that for?"

"Okay see you soon Sting and Rogue"

Everything is black, where am I? What happened?

"Do you really think that Yukino's okay? When she came back with this person in her arms she seemed like she'd woken up from whatever daydream she was stuck in. Ever since she got the news that Lucy died she seemed to shrink in and shut us out, now isn't so bad but to be honest I am worried about her mental state!" Sting rattles on.

 When Sting mentions Yukino carrying me to wherever I am now, everything floods back, I remember my Mothers death and fighting the soldiers, being stabbed in the stomach, going to the restaurant, seeing Yukino and the others from Sabertooth, defending Yukino from those idiotic men and finally fainting from loss of blood. 

"I don't know, seeing this person and thinking that she's Lucy definitely woke Yukino up, I just hope that when she realises that it isn't Lucy she won't go back into that shut down state" Rogue murmurs. I crack an eye open slightly to find myself in a whitewashed room with beds lined on either side, a window looks down upon a forest and then below the forest the village so I must be in Sabertooth, wow, that's a long way for Yukino to carry me I think, impressed at her strength, finally my gaze slides to where Sting and Rogue are leaning, talking together. Suddenly Rogues head snaps towards me, I quickly shut my eye, deciding that it's probably the right time to 'wake up'.  I groan slightly and shift my body, "She's awake" Rogue says as I re-open my eyes, I pretend to be confused "Where am I? Who are you?" I croak as I slowly sit up, aching from all bruises. Sting passes a cup of water to me silently and I take it gratefully, "I'll go and get Yukino" calls Sting as he walks out of the room "Great, thanks Sting" mutters a disgruntled Rogue. Rogue looks at me suspiciously, catching me watching him, I choke on the water that I was sipping and start to cough and splutter. He shouldn't be able to see through my disguise, mainly because it's stuck on to me and I can't get rid of it unless I will it to go, so I don't know why I should feel so uncomfortable, "Where am I?" I ask him again, Rogue grunts "in Sabertooth" before turning away and walking out of the room. "Well, I didn't know Sabertooth treated its guests this way! Or is it just Rogue who acts that way?" I say out loud, I place the cup of water on a small bedside table before pushing the blanket that's covering me aside and swinging my legs around so that they touch the floor, my long black hair swings around with me, all messy and ruffled. I am still wearing the same clothes from before, my black leggings and bloodstained long sleeved shirt, bloodstained! My hands go to my stomach and I gasp in shock when I realise that my wound has healed "Exactly how long have I been here?" I wonder, talking out loud. The doors bang open and Yukino runs in hugging me "You're awake! Thank the Celestial spirits! How are you feeling? Do you feel better? How did you get that wound? You must tell me everything!" she babbles on and on, I smile happy to see that her energy is back and drop my disguise, letting my hair return to normal. "Okay, okay, remember I only just woke up! My wound has healed probably thanks to your Celestial magic but I still have a few bruises and I'll tell you everything later when Sting and Rogue aren't around" I laugh as I hug her back. Yukino leans back "so it really is you Lucy! How is this possible?!  You're supposed to be dead! You look so different too!" she exclaims in surprise then her face becomes closed, she lets go of me and walks over to the door, checking outside in the corridor if anyone is in ear shot before closing it and coming back over to me. She sits down on the bed opposite me "okay, what do you want to know first off?" I ask her, deciding that all these secrets felt like they were weighing me down, it would be good to tell someone everything. "Why did you fake your death?" Yukino asks bluntly, "Um......well first of all to understand that I will need to tell how all of this happened" I tell her and then explain how Fairy Tail hurt me so badly that my Celestial Spirits had to come and save me. How I woke up days later with my Celestial Spirits crowded around me, worried after having looked after me for over a week. I tell Yukino of packing the few things I needed and leaving Magnolia, of meeting my supposedly dead Mother. "Mother taught me many things as did the people she asked to teach me. I now can fly, memory make, teleport, use telekinesis and telepathise!" I tell Yukino in excitement, she gasps when I tell her of my new magics, "Then after many weeks of training and having fun with my Mother, people invaded Mum's property demanding payment for helping her escape from Father. Mum made me run but when I reached the forest those wretched people blew up Mum's house along with everyone in it!" I tell her angrily, Yukino lays a hand on my leg in comfort "what happened next?" she asks gently and so I tell her. "I fought them and won, the only main wound that I received was the stomach stab-" 

"-And you managed to walk all the way here? I am not sure if that is impressive or stupid, you could have killed yourself!" Yukino scolds me. Suddenly there is a knock on the door and a voice shouts "I'm coming in Yukino!" I quickly will my hair to turn back to long black with ice blue tips before laying down on the bed. Yukino steps back and  turns towards the door just as it opens to reveal Minerva, "Yukino, Sting wants to see you" she commands before leaving. "Just as cold as ever I see" I comment and Yukino snorts in amusement in return "I will come and visit you after I see what Sting wants but you if you aren't moving on before dinner you are welcome to stay for dinner" she offers before following Minerva. I hadn't really thought about if I was going to leave to find the dragons in hiding or not, Mother had whispered directions to the dragons in my ear as she had hugged me so I knew where to go. I guess it would be nice to stay here with Yukino for a bit but I doubt I would be able to I contemplate. Finally I decide to stay one more day before leaving to the dragons. ~Yukino, I think I might take you up on your offer and stay another night if you don't mind~ I send my thoughts to Yukino whom I feel jump at least a foot in the air when she hears my voice in her head, I feel her nod in acceptance before I come back to my own mind and decide to practice my magic. I practice simple memory magic spells first, creating different ones, then I practice teleporting to different beds in the room. I call three of my Celestial spirit friends, Aires, Lyra and Plue. "Hello guys, how are you?" I ask them, they answer each in their own way ~I am glad you are all well! I am sorry I haven't called you in a while.~ I apologise telepathically "pjfgkoerjwehfjiejhfciejhfieqhibsdbw" Plue mumbles in understanding, Aries sniffs sadly, saying "it's okay Lucy-senpai, the fault is mine!" and Lyra sings "it's okay, you have been away, we hope you are well and have not gone through too much hell!". I smile in amusement at Lyra's lyrics before saying, "thanks, you have certainly cheered me up, can you sing me a song please Lyra?" Aries cushions my bed with more wool before dissapearing, Plue comes and curls up next to me while Lyra sings her song.

"Many blocks along the road, Kicking down walls of heavy stones, 

Yet no one could draw through the walls of her lonely bones.

A poet who could not write what's inside. 

Her pen had gone ink dry. 

Her beady eyes lost the feel of an angelic realm.

She tried! She tried until she could no longer cry!

A poet who stuttered with the mind and out came no words.

This poet hangs on a mound with a picture that tells a sad tale.

A poem that broke verses in a Carpe diem dream.

She ruffled her arms once more as if she could fly.

Still nothing, Everything felt dead inside. 

Trap in a mental state that clots the willing vein.

Isolating her form in a room with no door.

She stays this away from the feel of the marvel pen.

To never go back, and feel again.In the most ominous way,She lets out a cry, A cry, never heard before. 

Running from this evil, that stain her world. 

 Words buried deep and behind a new exterior box, Her insides grasp all the air of airs once alive. 

A talon drop into the next, This troublesome poet gave up on everything. 

Had nothing left, but the empty space within."

I am a bit confused as to why her song is so sorrowful and dark but before I can ask I fall to sleep.
