In a world where magic exists and pirates roams the seas, lies a tale of a princess and a pirate. Even years after his wife's tragic death, King Jude Heartfilia continues to drown his sorrows in alcohol and leave his kingdom in shambles. During one night of drunken gambling, the King sells his daughter Lucy, whom he hasn't been able to look at since his wife's death, to the infamous pirate captain named Natsu Dragneel as a payment to his large sum of gambling debts. Will Lucy adjust to the pirate life? Will she resent her father for his drunken mistake? Or will she find happiness, friendship, and maybe even love within the Fairy Tail crew? Join Lucy, Natsu, and the rest of the Fairy Tail crew in Payment to a Pirate, a story of friendship, love, betrayal, sadness, and maybe even a little bit of romance. (Wow, I suck at descriptions. I honestly had a better one, but it was mysteriously deleted.)
