Lucy

The next day, Natsu and I decided to go wander around the park as a small date.

"So, what should we do?" I asked, holding his hand.

"Hm, what do you want do to?"

"I don't know. That's why I'm asking you." I giggled, smiling.

"Ah, lets go to that fortune teller building. Lets see what wanders in our future."

I nodded and we both walk towards the building. He opens the door and I go inside.

Inside, the wall paper was all dark blue and there were curtains everywhere hanging in the ceiling.

"Whoa, this looks amazing." I muttered, and Natsu nodded.

"Welcome to my fortune t–Lucy?! Natsu!? What are you two doing here!?"

"Levy?!"

"Oh, hey. Uh, this isn't my place! It's actually Cana's. She ran off to the store to buy snacks because we were hungry. I'm covering the shift." Levy said, smiling.

"Ah, that makes sense. Anyways, can you read my future?" I asked, walking towards Levy.

"Sure! Sit down on the chair and I'll tell you through the magic ball."

I nod and look at Natsu.

"You coming?"

"Yeah, but I kind of have a weird vibe of this." Natsu said.

"Don't worry. I'm sure everything will be okay. This is Levy, after all."

I sit down on the chair, a table in between Levy and I.

She lights up the candles that are on the table with her magic and closes her eyes, grabbing my hand.

"Your future will show in the magic ball as I touch your palm. Look at it closely." Levy said, and I narrow my eyes at the magic ball.

Suddenly, purple light starts to glow around the magic circle and a flash blinks.

Inside the magic circle, was me going inside some bright portal.

The magic ball flashes again. There was blood and fangs with the moon shining bright in the night sky.

Suddenly, another flash comes and it shows my mother and another woman that looks identical as my mother and I speaking with each other.

"Whoa." I gasped.

Another flash comes and it shows two kids playing together at someone's backyard. It was a girl and a boy.

Out of nowhere, Levy gasps and the magic ball returns to normal.

"Levy. Is something wrong?"

"Oh God. Lucy, I think I found out something that you don't know." Levy said, and I gulp.

"What is it?"

"You know how you saw your mother and another blonde woman talking to each other? Yeah, well that's your ancestor from 100 years ago talking to your mother. Do you have any idea what that means?"

"Mom...traveled back in time?" I asked, appalled.

I was a bit scared that I was wrong.

"You're wrong. Your mother gave birth to you 100 years ago when she was pregnant with you. You're from the past, Lucy. Your mother didn't liked the era she was in, so she traveled to the future through the Eclipse Gate and found out that the generation she traveled to was much more safer. Your mother wanted a better future for you."

"W-What?! What about Dad!?"

"Lucy...your Dad died 100 years ago. The Jude that died months ago was an imposter pretending to be your father so you wouldn't feel alone with Romeo. I'm sorry."

I gasped, wide eyed. This can't be it! I can't believe this at all!

"N-No way. He behaved just like my father! He is my father! That wasn't an imposter!!" I shouted, getting up from the chair.

"Lucy! Hey! Calm down! Relax!" Natsu yelled, holding my arms so I would calm down.

"No! I can't calm down! I came from 100 years ago! Mom traveled to the future! And Dad was an imposter!!"

Natsu spins me around to face him and he plants his hands on my cheeks.

"Lucy...do not fret. We are all here for you. Just please, calm down."

Tears run down my cheeks and he kisses my forehead. Natsu wraps his arms around me in a protective manner as I cry.

"I'm sorry, Lu-chan."

"This isn't your fault, Levy. Don't put the blame on yourself." Natsu said, stroking my hair as he talks to Levy.

"Yeah, okay." Levy said.

I can't believe that I'm from the past.

***

As I get out of the bathroom after finishing my shower, I look at my window and see that it was open.

That's odd. I was sure that it was closed.

Guess not.

I walk towards the window and shut it close. I turn around and walk towards my closet.

I open it and take out my t-shirt and sweats.

I put them on and sighed. I grab my brush from on top of the wardrobe and brush my hair, getting bits of my blonde strands.

Suddenly, it started to rain. I huff.

Sure, I like the rain but–does it have to be at night?

As the mirror, I see someone behind me and I gasped, turning around.

There was no one.

My heart was beating rapidly out of fear and I turn around to look at the mirror again but someone was blocking my way.

"Aah! What the hell?!" I yelled, backing away.

"Hm, your reaction was hilarious." The woman chucked, smiling.

"Who are you?! Are you one of the Alvarez members?"

"Oh, no dear. I'm Anna Heartfilia, your ancestor."

Anna Heartfilia...she's from 100 years in the past.
