Lucy? Is that you?

Halloween Special 2018

Lucy gasp at the guild. Everyone was decorating the guild. Black and Orange banners hung for the guild. The lights dimmed, giving the guild a spooky vibe. "Hey Lucy!" Mirajane shouted, her arm in the air waving over to the blonde. She walked threw the guild members, smiling at everyone. "Hey Mira." Her chocolate brown eyes shinned brightly. "What is going on?" Lucy ask, her finger against her lips. Confusion laced her voice. Mirajane laughed lightly. "Oh, Every year on Halloween night we decorate the guild!" Mira cheered. She clasp her hand together, a huge smile on her face. Mira's smile flattered, a small frown replaced it. "We even started  at tradition, we make ofrendas(1)" She pointed to the very large and colorful. At the very bottem were lit candles, a few washbasins, mirror, soap, and a towel. "An old guild member wanted to be remembered this way. Master, not wanting to break his wish, agreed." Mira-Jane sighed, she stared at the ofrenda. "I lost my little sister two years ago...Elfman and I wanted to remeber her, cherish all the memories we've had of her..." Mira held her hand up to Lucy's cheek, her bright blue eyes shinning with tears. "You remind me so much of her...Like she's back at home..." Mira let her arm fall to her side, "Anywho!" Mira clapped her hands on Lucy's shoulder, shoving her to one side of the guild. "I need help putting this decorations up. Just wrap them around the pillars." Mira said. Before Lucy could even utter an word, Mira speed walked away. 'Well it doesn't seem so bad.' Lucy thought.  

As Lucy was helping decortaiong the guild, her mind wondered over to the ofrenda. She saw all kinds of pictures of past guild members. At the very top was First Master Mavis. Followed by some of the other founders of Fairy Tail. "It's beautiful isn't it?" A voice spoke. Lucy looked over her shoulder. It was Laxus freaking Dreyar. "You can put someone on the ofrenda if you want to...." Laxus muttered. His grey eyes lingering on a certain picture. Laxus' arms crossed over his chest. "No one is going to judge you for it" Laxus grunted out. His cheeks turing a light shade of pink. Lucy turned her gase back to the ofrenda. "What are the yellow flowers for?" Lucy ask. She could feel some kind of magical energy or a pulse of something. "African marigold." Lucy nodded in thanks. "I'm gonna go home...Tell Mira im sorry." Lucy practically ran out of the guild. 
Laxus stared after the Blonde beauty. She had a special spark that no one else has, something that made him intrested in her. "Someone has a crrrrrushhhhh!" Happy rolled his tounge. Laxus' head snapped over to the flying blue cat. Thunder boomed around Laxus, trying to intimidating the cat. "Say anything to anyone! I'll kill you and make sure no one will ever find your body!" Laxus snarled. Happy saluted, "Aye sir!" He flew away. 

Lucy sat at home, her mind wondering to the ofrenda. A worn photo of a girl that had soft brown eyes along with long blonde hair, which she was wore in a bun along with a lacy baby pink band with ruffles on its edges which rests on her hair with her flicks and strands of hair framing her face. She also had a voluptuous figure. 'Mama...' Lucy's hands clenched the photo. 

Laxus waited for Lucy to walk back in the guild. Hell he didn't even care if she was with the pink haired fool. All he wanted was for her to come back. 'Yeah so you can 'talk' to her' A small voiced whispered to him. Laxus rolled his eyes, ignoring the annoying voice. Maybe Laxus could go to Lucy's home and bring her here. No, he couldn't do that, Lucy would kill him. What if he went to her house and had flowers...no that wouldn't work either. Laxus groaned, why does this have to be so difficult. He never had this problem before. All Laxus had to do was walk up to the girl and flirt with her, she would be all over him. 'But Lucy isn't that kind of girl...' The voice chidded in. No, Laxus thought, Lucy is a kind, wonderfull forgiving person. Lucy wouldn't throw her body at any men who comes her way. Laxus slammed his head on the bar, gaining some looks from everyone else. What is he going to do?

Lucy stopped at the door, a photo in her hand. Along with her mother's favorite book. She hesitated, then slightly pushing the doors open. "Hey Lu-Chan!" Levy shouted, waving her hands. Lucy gave a nervous smile. "Hey Laxus?" Lucy poked the bulky man at the bar. "What" He growled out. Lucy deflated, of course why would Laxus of all people help her. "Sorry Laxus" Lucy whsipered. She mentaly hit her self. Stupid stupid stupid! What were you thinking Lucy?! 

Laxus wanted to kill himself right then and there. Of course he had to snap at Lucy. Can't do anything right. Laxus grumbled. His grey eyes looked around the guild for a certain blonde. He saw her at the ofrenda. 'She was probaly asking for help fool' The voice snapped at him. 
Laxus wondered behind Lucy. "I'm sorry...I didn't mean to snap." Laxus apologized. Those bright brown eyes stared back at him, filled to the brim with tears. "What do i do?" Lucy held out her mothers photo. Laxus guided her arms to a girl photo. "Here...This is my mom." Laxus said. She had long wavy dirty blonde hair with shinning grey eyes. She had a cute little nose. Lucy put the pictue next to Laxus mom. "Here name was Alexis. I never new my mom" Laxus admited. Lucy grabbed his hand, gripping it tightly. "My mom died from a magic illness. I was 7 at the time...My father ignored me...Acting as if i was never there" Lucy smiled sadly. 

As the two bonded over their mothers, the rest of the guild watched their intereaction. Laxus fucking Dreyar was being nice. Makarov sat on the bar, watching his Grandson and Favorite child, bond. He sipped at his beer, a huge smile on his face. 'Ahh Laxus and Lucy would be very great together.' Makarov thought happily.
