Forgive But NEVER Forget

Fun, Training, and Street Fight!

Lucy POV

I can't believe she choose the beach! We could've gone anywhere, but we had to pick the beach. Well whatever though, I think I'll just train on growing my magic capacity. I want to be able to stand in a fight without worrying about my magic, but a little fun won't hurt!!!

We all had our share of fun! Natsu and Gray competing amongst each other on everything beach wise. Erza was sunbathing with Wendy. Juvia, like always, was stalking her dearest. Happy was near Carla, and I was idly laying in the cool waters. After having fun, we decided to get to training. I just read more books from the celestial world.

Training went on for three months, and then we suddenly had a visit from Jellal, Ultear, and Meredy. From what Jet told us, Jellal escaped prison but created a separate guild to fight dark guilds, Crime Sorcere. They have destroyed many Dark Guilds during the past 7 years. They wanted our help, to find the magic of Zeref they kept sensing during the grand magic games. We happily agreed.

"I would like to help you guys in your training, so how about I try this new method of increasing your magic capacity? It's called the second origin," Ultear said. She started to explain things, but I kept thinking about Zeref. There were many books about Zeref in the celestial world. I never really read them, maybe I should ask Crux, to look more into it. (Crux is the spirit Lucy used to get more information about the eclipse gate.)

"Lucy, from what I can sense from you, you already unlocked your second origin," Ultear commented.

Everyone looked in my direction as I replied, "Yea, I have." Natsu was really shocked. Still think low of me, huh?

It infuriated me that Natsu wouldn't stop staring at me. Eventually, he stopped and the second origin release process began in pain. I didn't want to hear Natsu's screams of pain, so I started to walk away.

Why do you still have this effect on me? After all, you made me go through, I can't stop feeling this way!

I found a quiet place and continued to read more of my spell books.

A few days later, everyone was packed up and ready to go to Corcus, where the Grand Magic Games were taking place. Once we arrived there, we decided to go explore the city. Natsu and Happy decided to go together, while Gray, Erza and I decided to go solo. It was quite a peaceful day, and the city was beautiful. Everything was great till I heard some ruckus from a mage that was very familiar. Natsu! What did he do now?!

I walked towards the crowd and heard someone say, "Looks like the Twin Dragon Slayers of Sabertooth are about to beat the crap outa Fairytail Dragon Slayer! This trip was so worth it!"

Twin Dragon Slayers! No way! It couldn't be him, right?

I made myself to the middle of the whole ruckus and saw Natsu butting heads with a blonde haired mage, both holding each other by the collar.

"Natsu, stop this right now. We need to get to the lodge right now," I interrupted.

Both mages looked in my direction.

I was right, it was him, Sting! He looks so different now! It has been a long time since then, plus those 8 years too. I doubt he even remembers me.

Natsu removed his hands from Sting's collar and Sting did the same. "It was his fault. He kept berating Natsu," Happy said as he flew over to me.

I didn't make eye contact with either mage and kept looking at Happy.

"Lu-Lucy, it's you," Sting finally said.

I looked in his direction, smiled and said, "Hey, Sting!" I was about to say something, but I was suddenly wrapped in a hug, by Sting.
