Chapter 3

Hey. Okay, I know I said that you guys should expect the next chapter a bit later than November 5 but it's been a month and 10 days, so I am extremely sorry for the wait (if anybody is reading this). School's been hard to keep up cause I participate in a lot of contests, I have exams after winter and other things like assignments and projects to pass. I can't guarantee that you'll get a chapter in January but I'll try as hard as I can to bring you 3-5 chapters this Christmas season. Take it as my gift to you for the Holidays. Anyways, the next chapter will be on the 20th, you can count on that. For now enjoy chapter 3~

As always, reviews and votes are appreciated. Especially reviews. Thank you. Sorry again for the wait, oh and pay no mind the deranged girl in the room who wishes for someone to comment on her story, that's just me.

DISCLAIMER: I DO NOT OWN FAIRY TAIL HIRO MASHIMA DOES

Chapter 3: She's a weirdo but she's nice

"Watch out!" a voice warned. Lucy ducked just in time as a rectangular object whizzed passed overhead. She turned to stare as it hit the back of an unsuspecting freshman, causing him to fall over his chair.

"Sorry!" the same voice who warned her apologized. A loud thump resonated behind her before she caught a glimpse of the thrown item. A pre calc book? Lucy sweat dropped, it probably belonged to the juniors who nearly bumped into her at the entrance.

Shaking her head she continued to dodge flying projectiles as she made a beeline for the counter, barely avoiding being slammed into by the football team against the wooden island; startling the brown haired server behind it.

"Five boxes of strawberry cheesecake please," she ordered breathlessly, handing the lunch lady her student card. The frightened woman nodded and left to get her order. Glancing around the large room, Lucy saw crowds of students rush inside, pushing and shoving each other out of the way to search for any available table. She swerved out of the way in the nick of time as a plate of mashed potatoes and gravy crashed in the place she stood on only moments before. Frowning a little at the once delectable serving now turned into a slimy mess of brown, white and glass on the floor beside her feet.

It was hell. No doubt about it.

Mondays meant that lunchtime in Fairy Tail Academy was a battlefield —no correction, it was a war-zone — especially if that Monday was the first day back. If so then you would want nothing more than to distance yourself from the lunchroom as far away as you possibly could.

Why? Because all the school clubs were present meaning: it was pandemonium at its finest hour.

Fairy Tail Academy is a vast school with several thousands of students, from all parts of Ishgar and Alakitasia continent, harboring even a several former residents of the places beyond the Alvarezian borders. If one ever forgot their lunch, or if they just couldn't be bothered to bring one, there were only two choices. It was either the students buy and eat lunch in the cafeteria, which would definitely guarantee them getting hit by the meal of the day. Or, after one would receive the fairly delicious food — the cook was a young woman named Kinana who made great sushi by the way — they would try to go outside while somehow avoiding the daily food brawl.  

The key word being try. Because, frankly only a handful of people ever made it out miraculously unscathed without tea and sauce dripping from their shoulders. Lucy hoping to becoming one of these lucky few herself.

Of course there was always the option of not eating but considering the intense physical and mental learning system they used —or implemented because Lucy was pretty sure her teachers just liked to torture them — skipping lunch was almost a nonexistent thing, unheard of even.
