A/N: I didn't know this book was going to be so popular so fast so I'm going to update again!!! Yay right? LOL anyway...

Lucy P.O.V
'I never quite understood Natsu's hatred for the train until I became a dragon slayer, that machine is literally going to be the death of me.' I think as I stumble off of the rolling rectangle of death at the Magnolia station. I've been on that train for what felt like an eternity and those stupid twins got to get off 2 stops ago, Lucky bastards. I walk to my apartment first and hand over this months rent and tell her that I'm moving out. She tells me to drop off my key after I have my stuff out before shutting her door in my face like the bitch she is. I then start making my way to the Fairy Tail guild to give them the guild cut of my job earning and to quit,how fun right? As I arrive outside the guild doors I can hear the rowdy guild having plenty of fun without me, I knew they didn't need me to be there to have fun. I open the door and dodge a table that came hurling towards my face before walking over to Mira.
"The guild hasn't changed a bit in the 2 months I've been gone.."
"Yeah, everyone missed you. How was the mission?"
"Exhausting, but I finished it. Hey, is Master upstairs?" I ask and she nods before carrying a plate of food out to her brother who was screaming something about his food being a man. I walk up the stairs and up to the master's door before knocking lightly. From the other side I could hear a bit of shuffling before he said I could come in.

Master Makarov P.O.V
I hear a light knock on my door and I quickly put my playboy magazine away before telling them to come in. The door suddenly opens and I see Lucy walk in with a sad look in her eyes.
"What is it my child?"
"I wanted to give you the guild cut from the S-Class mission I completed and I have other things that I need to talk to you about." She replies as she gets the money out.
"Well lets talk and then you give the money."
"Well, I wanna leave the guild..." She plainly says and it breaks my heart.
"Is there a reason?" I ask trying to avoid the shed of tears.
"Lissanna is back and it's pretty obvious that I am no longer part of team natsu since they take her with them on missions. I'm not leaving because of that though, I don't mind doing missions alone. My power matches Erza's, I don't really need help. The problem is that I feel like a stranger here now and if I'm going to feel like a stranger than I may as well feel like a stranger somewhere where I AM a stranger." She says as a tear falls from her eye.
"Of course...May I have you're hand then?" She nods and hands it over for me to do my thing. I cover the top of her hand with my right hand and hold it up with my left hand before chanting the removal spell and releasing her. "There you go...shall I tell the guild?"
"You may, but only after I'm gone and I don't want anyone trying to bring me home." She says before giving me a short hug and leaving my office. As soon as she's gone I break down, I was a mess.

Lucy P.O.V
After I left Makarov's office I could hear him crying and it broke my heart, but I couldn't turn back now. I walked down the stairs and straight out the door without another word, I headed over to my old apartment and called Virgo to help me pack. Knowing that I wanted to help she packed everything herself hoping that I'd give her punishment for it, of course I didn't. I then gave her the key and she took it back to the land lady before going back to the spirit world with my things. 

Only after I arrived at the train station and bought my ticket did I realize that Master let me walk out without paying him. 'Money is like his lifeline, he must've really thought I needed it more than him..' I think just as my rolling death box arrives.

Rogue P.O.V 
'Explaining the reason why we helped Lucy was the hard part, but explaining that Lucy was joining the guild was the easy part. Master was so happy about an S-Class mage that he forgot all about our little '2 month vacation' as he called it.'
