The Look Alike

"Um... mom? Are you sure that's not Zeref?" She laughed.

"Of course! He just strangely looks like him... We don't know why..." I sighed. Did it not occur to her that he could be Zeref and not telling her? I know that Natsu is the real Zeref's little brother so... If this is Zeref then me and Natsu are brother sister...

NO!! It can't be him because there's no way I'm related to that blabbering idiot... Is there?

"Um... Mom? Do I have any other siblings?" She shook her head.

"No, not that I know of..." She tapped her chin thoughtfully. "No. Let's go eat. Dinner is done." I nod and follow behind her and Shane. I don't trust him quite yet. I eyed him suspiciously behind his back. Oh well.

Once we got to the dinner table I saw the longest table in the whole world. I felt my mouth drop open. There was so much food! Suddenly, it felt like a whole year since I last ate... I wonder if that's how Natsu always feels? I slapped my cheeks for thinking about him. Get him out of your mind girl! PULL YOURSELF TOGETHER! I sat down next to my mom and then Shane sat next to me. I cringed on the inside hoping it wasn't visible.

"Are you ok Lucy?" Shane asked, "You look a little distressed." Crap... Saw right through me...

"Uhh... It's nothing, you just look exactly like a very powerful dark mage from Earth Land, did I mention he's super evil!" 'Shane' visibly stiffened. "Sorry." I said quietly. I glanced at Shane and saw a tear slip out of his eye. When he noticed me looking he got embarrassed and wiped it away fast. I could feel my mother glaring at me from across the table. I stood up. "I-I'll just go to bed now." I shuffled out of the room very awkwardly hoping not to be followed. My wishes were granted as I entered my room very much alone. I started heading towards my bed but something shiny caught my eye. I turned to look at it and saw that there were two large exceed eggs, one was gold and looked like it had stars on it, while the other one was very pink. They looked like they would hatch any time now. I sat on my bed and watched the eggs. Waiting for the moment they hatched.
