Forgive & Forget

Chapter 3

Chapter Three:

Lucy’s POV:

I gave them the time that I knew they needed. After Natsu asked Lisanna out I didn’t go to the guild for two whole days. When I went back yesterday my friends were worried so I just told them I was a little sick and had a fever. I stayed at the guild for an hour then Natsu and Lisanna came in and I still couldn’t stand being near them so I said hi and picked out a quick job and left. I have decided that I will only go to the guild to get jobs now. I can’t stay there when Natsu is there because I start to feel so sad and sorry for myself that I start to cry and I don’t want my friends to see me cry over someone I can never be with. When Lisanna is around my heart fills with jealousy and hatred even though she is so sweet. I know I can’t blame her for falling in love with him. I mean, I did. But I just hate how nice she is.

I just got back to my apartment when I realised I forgot to check the mail. There usually isn’t anything there but today there was a letter. It was written in my father’s handwriting. I still haven’t forgiven him but I took it into the apartment, sat at my desk and began to read.

Dear Lucy,

I honestly know that you are upset with me and don’t want to hear from me. But this isn’t from me these are the words of your mother transferred from me to you. It is coming up to your 18th birthday and Layla wanted me to tell you this:

Your mother wasn’t any old celestial mage; she was a celestial dragon slayer. She was also a fire, water, air, metal, light, shadow, lightening, poison and time dragon slayer. She was the Queen of the dragons.

I know this is a lot for you to take in but you are, at the moment, the princess of the dragons and they need a Queen. You must become that Queen.

There is an island that only dragons and dragon royalty may enter. It is called Dragonfilia.

There is a map attached to this letter that will tell you how to get there. When you are there you will be safe only dragons and dragon royalty may enter or leave the island so I don’t think you will be able to contact your friends unless you call them.

When you feel like you are ready to leave, go there and train. The dragons will already know who you are and will guide you through your training to learn all of their magic and become their new Queen. I am not sure how long you will be there but I believe you will need at least five years to train. Then you will be able to leave.

I know that you don’t want to hear this from me but please do this. Not for me but for your mother and the Dragon Realm.

Yours truly,

Jude Heartfilia

 I don’t know what to do anymore. I’ll decide in the morning. With that I get dressed into my PJ’s and go to bed thinking about what to do.
