Lucy's POV

I cried for as long as I could remember. Why was my father so strict? Why would he let her do that? Why would he let Lady Minerva hurt me like that?

Flash back to a couple years ago:

"Father, who is she?" I said as I was coming down the stairs. I saw a lady with long black hair and a pretty face.

"She's Lady Minerva. She is going to take care of you VERY well," my father replied with a smirk. 

"A-alright..."

"OW! LADY MINERVA! PLEASE STOP WHIPPING ME!"  I said with bruises and scratches all over myself.

"Nope. I'm having fun. Isn't that what counts?" She said with a hard whip on my back.

"OUCH!" I scream.

Flash forward:

I started to cry, even more, remembering what she does to me... a few more minutes, she could be whipping me again. Or stabbing me with a knife lightly. Just enough that it wouldn't kill me, but it would definitely torture me.

"LUCY HEARTFILIA! Get back down here! Lady Minerva is here to see you... with an AXE." I whimper. What's going to happen now?

I go downstairs and greet Lady Minerva. "Hello, Ma'am," I said.

She slightly sliced me on the neck. I whimpered quietly. I'm pretty much used to this pain. (A/N  She's still 10 years old guys! STILL 10!)

Once it was over, my father sent me upstairs. I took a warm bubble bath. That put a serious sting on my body (A/N Don't be perverted here...). It hurt so much, I could barely breathe. I was sure, this day would be the end of me. With the axe and all. 

I wished my life wasn't like this. I wished I had a different life. 

I wondered what the brown-haired, onyx eyed, idiotic food addict was doing. He was probably eating all the food he could get. I smiled at the thought of him. I don't even know his name yet.

Once the bubble bath was over, I asked my father if I could go outside. He nodded and I left. 

"OH ONYX EYED FOOD ADDICT! WHERE ARE YOOOOOOU~?" I sang/yelled. Then as I walked further, I could see a black and white modern mansion. That must be his house. I live in a more palace typed place. 

I walked toward it and rang on the modern doorbell. A young 4-year-old girl with blue hair opened the door. She looked like him. "Hello!" she smiled. She sounded like him as well... kind of... not really.

"Hi, there!" I replied with a glowing face. "Is your brother home?" I questioned.

"Yes. One second."

Soon, he comes out. "Hello again, Lucy."

"Hi!" I beamed.

"Where'd you run off to? I was worried. And you don't know my name... and we didn't eat snow cones!"

"Aw, I'm sorry. I had stuff to do!"

"That's alright. Anyways, the names Natsu."

"Natsu eh?" I giggled. 

"WHAT!?" He said.

"Your name reminds me of the hot summer sun. And your hot temper too."

"What's that supposed to mean?" he laughed. We laughed until the sun went down.

"I have to go, Natsu! Bye! I'll see you tomorrow?" I asked.

"SURE!" He smiled his unique smile as I left.

"Where you with that crappy boy again?" My father asked.

"HE'S NOT CRAPPY!"

"He is part of the Dragneel family. He IS crappy. Stay away from him."

"I finally made a friend, father! Isn't that what mother wanted? For me to be happy?"

"DON'T SPEAK OF MOTHER! EVER AGAIN!" my father bellowed.

"I-I'm sorry," I said somberly. Once my father left, I whispered to myself, "Mother, why'd you have to leave?"


Okay, that was longer than the other one... Kind of.... umm.... awkward.... well, THANK YOU FOR READING MY STORY! It will get better by the 4th chapter. I'm going to try and post 5 chapters today. The first day working on this, it's a special day. I'm excited about how this will turn out, even if no one reads it, I just wanna write a good story. And yes, BROWN haired Natsu. He dyes his hair later on in the story. I hope the grammar is right... Grammarly better be useful.
