A Year Has Gone Since I last Saw You

Lucy

Natsu POV

Happy and I had just woken up and started walking, "So where are we gonna train today?" Happy asked while eating a fish and flying at the same time, "I don't know maybe under a waterfall." I replied with a huge grin, and my hands behind my head. We talked for a little bit when all of a sudden this very loud scream hit our ears. Happy and I fell to the ground covering our ears trying to block the sound, "What the heck is that?" I yelled towards Happy but there was no answer. While the screaming was going I felt the ground shudder, then the screaming stopped. I staggered up from the ground. My ears were ringing, but my nose was still working. As I tried to get my ears to stop ringing I smelt a Strawberry Vanilla sent. 'That sent, its Lucy's!' I thought to myself as I turned toward the sent. Once my ears stopped ringing I listened to see if I could here anything. I heard crying, sniffling, and a person running. I was still listening when all of a sudden a blonde headed girl came hurtling out of the trees towards me. She had scrapes and cuts all over herself, she was crying, and her eyes were closed with her head pointing down. She ran into me, and nocked the wind out of me. I held her while she was trying to escape. As soon as I could breath again I could smell the Strawberry Vanilla sent. When I was about to say something she screeched "Let me go I have to find Natsu!" She is still struggling when she used her Light Dragon's Roar on me, which sent me flying backwards into a tree. I groaned as I tried to get back up. Once I was up, I tried spotting Lucy but she wasn't there, then an orange flying cat came flying out of the trees where Lucy had come from, "Natsu!" Sassy yelled as she came flying towards me, "Sassy?" I replied while rubbing the bump on the back of my head. "Oh i'm so glad we found you!" Sassy put her short arms around my neck and hugged me. I was gonna say something when I heard moaning coming from a little ways from where I was originally sanding. I looked over there to see happy just now getting off the ground. "What the heck was that?" Happy asked while he was still covering his ears, "I don't know, but right now we don't have time to figure out what it was, right now we need to find Lucy!" I explained as I pried sassy away from me, "What? What do you mean 'find Lucy'?" Happy asked while he was flying over to us, "I'll tell you later, right now lets go!" I said as I ran off towards Lucy's sent. We ran for a few minutes when we saw Lucy on the ground covered in mud. "Lucy! Are you all right?" I ran over to her and picked her up bridal style. There was no answer. I started freaking out. I put my ear against her chest to see if I could here a heart beat, and I did. I exhaled with relief, "I think she may have just fainted or something." I told the two flying cats. Sassy and Happy exhaled and pretended to faint. I carried Lucy all the way back to where she ran into me, then I sat her down against a tree and covered her up with my jacket. First I got a fire started then I set up the tent I had brought along with me. When everything was set up, I carried Lucy into the tent, and started to take off her muddy jacket. Once I had her jacket off I was about to take her muddy shirt off when Sassy came in and said she'd do it, "You can get her new clothes." Sassy shooed me out of the tent, "Kay, but what do you need?" I asked once I was out of the tent, "Well from the looks of it I need a shirt, skirt or pants, and her undergarments." I stood there frozen at the word of 'undergarments. 'She wants me to get Lucy's undergarments? I mean Lucy has a cow any time she see's me in her house, and Sassy's expecting me to go through Lucy's stuff?" I thought to myself. I turned away from the tent and sat down beside Lucy's backpack, that was sitting next to the fire. I unzipped it and grabbed her clothes, but when I was dragging the clothes out I had knocked something out. I sat the clothes in my lap, and saw that I hadn't nocked just one thing out, but three.
