Lisanna's Lie

Missing

Chapter 5

Normal pov

Natsu walked to the guild hall the next morning with Happy flying beside him, smiling. 'Going on a mission with Lucy again is gonna be great! I haven't gone on a job with her for a while. I guess that is my fault.. well that doesn't matter anymore. ' Natsu stopped what he was thinking as he entered the guild hall.

"Good morning Natsu" Mira jane said as she saw Natsu sit down at the bar, just as cheerful as usual.

"G'mornin' Mira" he said back as he put his elbow on the counter and scratched the back of his neck. and ordered every kind of fire she had, but before he had the chance to eat, all of a sudden someone wrapped their hands around his eyes.

"Guess who!" They said.

"I know it's you Lisanna." Natsu said annoyed. He had gotten tired of Lisanna doing that, her hands were obivously a girls and her voice gave it away completely.

Lisanna giggled and sat down beside Natsu. She tried to talk to him but he was not paying any attention to her. Natsu was too busy stuffing his face to talk to her. After he was done he got up and when to look for Lucy. She obivously wasn't here yet.

Natsu's pov

Lucy is taking forever to show up! I need something to pass the time while I wait.. ah ha! I know just the thing!

"Hey, streaker! wanna go!" I yelled hoping for a fight.

"I am not-" Gray started

"Gray! Your clothes!" Juvia yelled pointing an accusing finger at him.

"Gah!"

"Fire Dragon Iron Fist!" I yell as my flames engulf my hand as I rush towards Gray knocking him off his feet, but he recovers quickly, shooting some of his ice at me.

"You'll have to do better than that if you want to win ya pyro freak!" Gray yelled back.

"Where is Natsu and Gray?" I hear a familiar voice call.

Normal pov

Natsu and Gray are beside each other arms around each others shoulders and acting buddy-buddy within seconds.

"There you boys are! I've been looking for you two." Erza said "Where is Lisanna? we are going on a job."

"Oh about that. you know we have basically ignored Lucy since Lisanna came back..."

Natsu trailed off when he saw Erza's face.

She looked angry but Natsu couldn't figure out who she was angry at. Was she angry at Natsu for talking about Lucy? he didn't know.

"Lucy.." Erza spoke quietly but not so quiet that no one could hear her. She bawled up her fists at her side.

"I-I forgot about Lucy... how could I do that??" Erza didn't look angry anymore. She had a expressionless face.

"Where is Lucy?" Erza asked.

"Not here yet. I told her everything would return to normal today. All of us are going on a job together.. And sorry Lisanna but Lucy is a part of our team, not you. But were all still friends of course. Ill properly introduce you to Earthland Lucy, since you already know Edolas Lucy." Natsu said not even glancing at Lisanna. He knew she was listening. Natsu didn't notice the evil aura coming from her direction.

'Too late'

"So Lucy has been here for the past few weeks?" Erza asked.

"Yeah. Apparently the only person who noticed she was here was Gajeel and Panther-Lily."

Erza went around the guild asking if anyone had seen Lucy the past few weeks all said no.

"How come no one has seen Lucy for 3 weeks?!"

"Im not sure why no one else has but I have seen bunny girl here everyday. It was like no one could even see her." Gajeel was the one who spoke. "I have to admit it was kind of creepy.."

"Have you seen her today?" Erza asked

"No. She usually comes early but I haven't seen her today."

"Natsu!" Erza yelled

"Yes ma'am!" Natsu said quickly sitting down.

"Go to Lucy’s apartment and make sure she's coming. I want to hear everything from her perspective. I think I might know why we didn't notice her."

Natsu trusted Erza to figure out what was going on so he nodded and ran out of the guild hall.

"Natsu! youll get there faster if we fly." Happy called after him and picked up Natsu.

"Thanks lil' buddy!"

Natsu's pov

Was Erza talking about a spell? A spell that makes us forget? Ah I'm so confused! Ill just let Erza figure out whatever she needs to figure out. There's Lucy's apartment.

Normal pov

Happy landed Natsu on Lucy’s windowsill 5 minutes later. Natsu opened the window and climbed through, and Happy followed.

"Lucy!" Natsu called as he walked around her apartment. "where are you?" Natsu checked every room with Happy but she wasn't there.

"Her bed is made so maybe she left." Happy suggested.

Natsu looked at Happy as if just realizing something. "I don't think she made it home last night."
