Fairy Tail: A Twist In Tale

Prologue

Thank You For Reading!
______________________________________________

I woke up when it was midnight.

Natsu and Cobra were on my bed. My body locked tightly in between their arms, their body giving me comfort and warmth. It reduced the uneasiness that I was feeling.

Don't get it wrong, I am very angry that they came into my house and slept in my bed without my permission -though I would have never permitted them-, but I was too scared and sad to shout at the both of them. And it isn't really proper to shout at people when they are asleep in the middle of the night.

I wanted to get out from their arms and maybe read a novel, but doing that will wake them up. And when they would wake up and see me, they will know that something is wrong.

Then they will keep pestering me until I tell them. And they will tell the guild that there is something wrong with me and no one will leave me alone, until I tell them.

And I didn't want that. I want no one to know what is wrong with me. They don't need to know.

I laid down on my bed, hearing the snores of the two dragon slayers, feeling their warm breaths as I thought of how to get up and leave the bed without them knowing.

And then I got it.

I took the pillow that my head was resting on and as I removed  their arms and stood up, I quickly put the pillow to take my place, hoping that they wouldn't know that it isn't me. I mean, the pillow should smell like me...........right?

I watched them for some time, waiting for the both of them to wake up and notice that they were hugging a pillow and not me. But they didn't. Instead, they kept on sleeping and snoring peacefully.

Opening my wardrobe, I picked out a pink robe and wore it. After that, I tied my straight blonde hair that reached the middle of my back into a messy bun. I slipped on my slippers and grabbed my newest novel and walked to my kitchen.

I poured my self a glass of water and walked then sat at the dining table and opened to the first page of the novel I bought.

It was a book that tells of a tale of two sisters, living through hard times. They have no parents, no relatives, hardly no friends, no money but they didn't care because they have each other's love. The book tells us of their adventures together. And it's genre is a tragedy.

I kept reading but after a good hour, I n realized that I was still reading the first paragraph of the first chapter. I didn't know what I was reading because my mind kept drifting me away. I couldn't concentrate.

Knowing it was stupid to keep reading the book, I closed the book, drank my water and walked back into my bedroom. I looked towards the bed to see the dragon slayers still sleeping and unconsciously, I smiled.

I walked towards the opening window -which I know is how they entered my apartment- and looked into the night.

It was still dark and the stars were fewer than I last saw them, but they were still beautiful. And thinking of the stars, led me to think of my past life.

I never liked to look at the stars because of I am a Celestial mage, but because of what the stars did for me.

Truth be told,  I never really understood the stars when I was younger. Mother always tried to get me to understand but I couldn't,  all I knew then was that they were beautiful.

But at a time in my life, I met someone. Someone who I held so dear to me. That person finally taught me about the stars and for the first time I understood them.
