********* So, this is going to be the first mini fight scene. I am not great at writing battle scenes and, as I said, the focus is going to be on Lucy's powers and GraLu, SOOOOO that means the fight scenes are going to be short. I'm sorry for this, but fight scenes are not my forte.  WARNING: Some potty mouthing ahead. Expect more adult language and sexual content coming in the near future (and possible more often, though I am trying to still gage how far I want to go with that stuff. Comment down below to let me know how far do you want me to take the sexy stuff, please?*********

~~~~~ I'd say next chapters are going to be more GraLu stuff!! Wooo sexy times ahead!! ~~~~~

>>>>>>>> 2 DAYS BEFORE LUCY'S ARRIVAL<<<<<<<<

Half of Magnolia was starting to look great with the guild goers help. They started by the train station and were working towards the ocean. Once all people that stayed in town after the mess had a home and functioning shop the guild was able to start clearing the rubble that was their previous guild and begin the planning and rebuilding. They tried to save as much of the rubble to re-use in the construction as possible.

Gray had a small house that was by the train station out of the way. He was lucky he had a place to stay. The Strauss siblings and Erza's house was closer to the guild but still towards the side by the tree line. Thankfully it was still standing. Any other guildmate that didn't have a place to stay was at one of the 2 Inns they helped fix-up.

As Gray was heading to the guild to the guild he took his usual detour. Walking past ♥HER ♥ house on strawberry street, he looked at the window to see if a light was on or anything looked like it was messed with. No such luck . . . . again. A sigh escaped his lips in disappointment and anger for getting his hopes up, . . . . . .again.. I hope she is safe and doing well. I miss her so much! He thought as he made his way down the brick street. Glancing at the waterway by her house, he decided to get up on the ledge as she always did, arms stretched out. He walked along the waterway for a bit thinking of bitter-sweet memories. After a while, he made his way to the rubble mountain that was the guild. He spent the morning and afternoon helping take the pieces of the former guild structure and clearing a space for a new guild to be built.

Levy was sitting at a makeshift table off to the side of the guild. Everyone but Gajeel left her alone. The Iron Dragon Slayer would check on her and make sure she ate. Levy was constantly looking for any information that could lead them to where Lucy might be. She took little breaks and was looking worse for wear.

Gray takes a few days to help around the town and the guildhall then he goes back to looking for Lucy. He waits for any news of a lead or sighting of her. During a break from his works, he noticed that Erza, Natsu, Wendy, Happy, and Carla returning from another failed Lucy sighting. Gray is sitting at one of the few tables that were not reduced to mulch, so the group that just returned joined him. Mira brought a sympathetic bottle and shot glasses over to the group.

The night was spent with the group drinking and talking about fun memories that have about Lucy. Slowly, Mira kept bringing bottles and shot glasses around as more people gathered around to chat, deciding they were exhausted for the day. Not wanting the guild to stay up too late because a lot of work was still to do tomorrow, Master Makarov (who showed up and took control of the guild again) ordered everyone to go home. Little did they know, tomorrow they were going to need energy to fight the enemy on it's way over.

===============================================================================

Gray awoke to sounds of explosions coming from the direction of the guild. He tossed on his close as he ran out the door. You got to be fucking kidding me! He thought as another explosion was heard. Even though he needed to focus on the cloud of smoke he still ran past Lucy's house and did a glance. She isn't here. I guess that is good because shit is going down at the guild. I can feel it. He kept running.
