Chapter Text
Lucy
I knew something was wrong when I woke up. The bed is too soft. The last thing I remember is the summoning the celestial king. . . Oh God Aquarius! She is stuck in between worlds for 100 years. Shit what about the demon dude. Jackel I think it was. No he got defeated by star dress. Opening my eyes I see my childhood bedroom. OK Lucy don't panic. Not panicking at all. This should be impossible. Is this what he did to help me? He sent me back in time. But how far back am I? Getting off the overly massive bed I look into the full wall mirror to see a child looking back at me.I'm roughly 4 or 5 now physically. That means Layla is still alive. Mama is here. Brandish may be here as well so the mansion won't get lonely again if I branch out to her. suddenly hearing the sound of people I jump into a sloppy fighting stance. Relaxing I think of how disappointed Natsu would be of me. . . My Natsu is gone. My . . . everything is gone. If not from me being back in time then from the cube eating? Or consuming everyone in the skin stuff. Shit don't cry lucy. My eyes water as soon as my old? Nanny Gerta comes in. She got killed when I was 6 by some deranged men. After that night I had mama start to teach me how to summon my celestial spirits. Hopefully I can prevent that from happening this time around. Overcome by emotions I start to wail. Gerta quickly brings me into a hug. "Shh shh little one it's OK, only a bad dream. You are OK." She tells me while rocking me. It does nothing but make me wail louder. " someone hurry and get lady Layla!" I dimly hear over my crying and gertas consoling. The next thing I know I am moved to a new lap. I hear someone singing.calming myself down I process the words." Starlight my little starlight. Open up the path of the stars. Of the stars from the stars start the path to us build the bridge make the bond." Calming down I look up to mama. "There we go darling. There we go. That must have been a really bad dream huh?" Mama asks. hiccuping i nod. "do you want to talk about the dream ?" mama asks. "well i had my dragon Natsu, but he dissapeared and when he is gone we arent as safe. we protect eachother and watch the others back and now he doesnt have anyone watching his and his dad left him. and he got lonely before gramps found him. but i dont know where he is at mama and i miss him" i tell mama frantically while thinking on how i can get to fairy tail to see who is all there before making any definate plans on what to do about helping my family. "what do you mean your dragon Natsu dissapeared?" mama asks almost hesitantly. sniffling i explain"Natsu isnt an actual dragon he is a dragon slayer and has a white flannel scarf he never tales off and has pretty pink hair and the brownest eyes ive ever seen mama. He is my person but he dissapeared and i dont know if his dad igneel, who is a fire dragon left him alone yet or if he is with gramps. and i just miss him mama will i be able to see him mama?" she clearly looks baffled by my rambling at this point. "where is igneel or gramps right now lucy? maybe we can go see them to check on your natsu?" mama tells me even if its only to calm me down. unlucky for her i know how to weaponize my cuteness now. afterall who would expect that of a child. " i dont know about igneel but i do know gramps is at fairy tail in mango-magno-magnoria-magnolia!" i answer proudly. "well i have heard of a fairy tail in the area, i could talk Jude into going for a few hours just in case this is a magic thing. after all 5 is the age i started to have a pull for my keys." mama mutters to herself. " Lady Layla breakast is ready whenever you and the litttle lady are ready." mama nods and stands both of us up "come along lucy breakfast then a bath for you." mama states. seeing gerta i come up with something to help make getting lost in the crowd easier. "mama can gerta and brandish join us for breakfast today? the table is really long and it feels lonely." i ask while pouring out childish charm. mama looks over to who nods her head gently. "yes i dont think that will be a problem this morning" mama kindly answers while smiling gently. on the walk to the dining room i zone out of our surrounding. so im five,that means its x775. the slayers wont be here for two years. im going to have to figure out a way to get all them gathered up. otherwise most of them will suffer greatly. ok what about the strauss siblings they join somepoint this year last time that shouldnt change. erza? she gets brought to the tower of heaven. is there a way to stop that? it would certainly help if i can keep whatever happened between her and jellal from reaccuring that would be great. can i bring in all the tower of heaven kids? what about the oraciean seis if i can find them i can save a lot of suffering. but who would fill the power void? would that be more dangerous? i cant leave children to take the fall im going to have to risk it. zoning back in i realize we are in the dining room with father, mama, gerta, and thankfully brandish. "goodmorning father" i tell jude softly like a heiress is supposed to. after all you can never start them lessons to early according to him.
