[Chapter.3] The Unstoppable Tears.

**Previously On.**

"I'm really sorry for not telling you the truth from the very beginning. Lucy, and it is true that you are not my real sister."

"Huh...?"

«»«»«»«»«»«»«»

The shocking revelation that made by Natsu. Really does make her stunned without even be able to say a single word. All she could do is crying over the painful fact that has been kept secret from her for almost eighteen years. Aware that she's hurt, caused by the painful truth. Natsu was covered by the feeling of guilt.

"If that's the truth about myself then tell me, who else knows about this? I guess that you're not the only one who knows the whole truth right?"

Left with no choice but, to be honest with her. Natsu finally chooses to voiced out after taking a very deep breath.

"Huh...Yeah, you're right. I'm not the only one who knows the truth about you, most of the members in our guild knows it and that includes the masters, I'm really sorry Lucy."

Knowing the painful truth about her true identity. Lucy then slowly Step back from the forest where she was attacked by the unknown enemy.

"Sorry, I think I need to be alone for a while, all of the incidents that just happened to me today are too sudden and with all this? I just..."

Before she's able to finish her word. Natsu suddenly interfered and cut her word off.

"I understand, you need time to accept all this. Don't worry."

Without even answering his words, Lucy immediately started to walk away from the forest with her broken heart but on the same time, she has vowed to take revenge to those who responsible for the death of her mother.

*******

Dragneel Residence.

Zeref has returned from the Eastern Forest. And noticed that something is different with Lucy, aware with the changed of his sister made him realize one thing that might happen on the first day of her returns from a very long - term of training.

"You finally get home, Iris. Where have you been all day? What happened to you?"

Aware with his presence there. Lucy started to walk towards him with her tears flows through her cheeks, then without any questions, she suddenly embraced him and continued to cry. Meanwhile, Natsu also has returned home seeing his brother there, and Lucy's condition. He knows that everything has been revealed to her.

"You know, don't you? Iris, tell me you've already known everything right?"

"Why?! Why did you never told me the truth?! That my mother already been killed! And I'm also not a part of this family! I'm not your sister!"

Shocked by the words that she said. Natsu really could feel that his heart has been sliced into pieces and Zeref also feel the same. Unfortunately, there's nothing they can do to change everything back to the way it used to be.

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to keep the secret from you for this long but I've already made a promise to your late mother, a promise that I will protect you from any dark force that wants to harm you and that was the reason why I forced you to undergo a very hard training. All I did was to fulfill my promise to your mother. One thing you need to know is, although we're not related by blood when I brought you home the day after your mother is killed I'd already considered you as my sister that's why I changed your name."

Hearing the very long explanation of her true identity. Lucy only can remain silent and unleashed her grip on him then question again.

"Why did they want to kill me? Who am I? Tell me, why are they so eager to get me killed?"

"It's because you're not an ordinary wizard, apart from your celestial spirit magic, you're also a wizard that Can use the magic of the elements which means you are able to control any kind of magic including dark magic. They want you to die because you're the key to seal them forever."

Heard it from his brother, makes Natsu stunned without any words. While Lucy also can't believe what she just heard.

"You lied, I don't believe you. Are you saying that I was the cause of my mother's death? She died while trying to protect me?"

"No! You're wrong! She didn't die while protecting you, she died because she transferred all of her magic power to you that's why you can't remember, the magic from your mother has become the key to seal your memory."

Feeling so disappointed with all the painful fact about herself, the young star maiden only can look at both of the Dragneel brothers with her tears flows down from her beautiful brown eyes. Then slowly... She stepped away from the family residence seeing her stepped away with a broken heart, Natsu tried to stop her but fail when Zeref immediately grabs his shoulder.

"Let her alone for now, she needs time to calm down."

"Why did you never tell me the truth?! She was targeted by the enemy, and you never told me that!"

"Yes, true, I'd never been honest with you and her, but I did that because I was also responsible for Layla's death."

"What?!"

"I'll tell you everything when the time's come."

*************

After she left her family residence, Lucy was strolling around Magnolia while trying to calm down but instead of being calm, her emotion is getting worsed.

Lucy's P.O.V

"Why do they never tell me the truth about everything? It's not fair! Argh!!! If they still choose to keep it secret, then the only way to know everything, is I have to investigate!"

Normal P.O.V

"That's it! I will find out about my past memory all by myself!"

Making her final decision to investigate everything, Lucy then goes to the Eastern Forest in order to search for a clue to everything connected to her lost memory. But what she found there definitely will going to change again.

"I wonder why everyone in the guild never allows me to go to the Eastern Forest? Is there something special inside the forest?"

*******

Magnolia Eastern Forest.

Eager to find out everything, Lucy finally goes to the forest where everything begins. By using her elemental magic, she manages to destroy the protective barrier that is used by Zeref to sealed the forest, once she opens the seal the young maiden was greeted by someone.

"Hello my dear, you have grown to be the most beautiful young lady."

Shocked by the sudden greeting, she then turns around to look for the voice, but once again she's stunned by what she sees.

"You're... It can't be! No!"
