A/N: This is my first fanfiction(or story at that), so don't have yur hopes too high T_T . I don't own Fairy Tail or it's characters (Lucy, Natsu, ect.).

Lucy's POV

I am always trying to escape from something. A crib, my room, the palace, or the entire city are just a few examples. When I was a child, it was to find my best friend. But he is gone. Disappeared along with the other sea Dragons.

But that's for another time.

Currently, I am trying to escape the clutches of my duties as Queen of the Atlantic.

"Dang it!" I yell-whisper. The guards, with the help of my crazy maid, Virgo, are closing in on me.

"Almost there..." I mumble under my breath. And that is true. I am only five yards away from the barrier that separates the Atlantic capitol from the rest of the sea, and my freedom.

I slip through the barrier with ease, while the guards all clash into it. I let out a small giggle. Ah, its nice to be royalty, since only royal blood could leave the city. I look up at the stars and reminisce.

A starry night in late October. I am only seven years old. I sit on my father's stiff tail, and one hand  is gripping my  mother's hand while the other's  Onee-chan's. The only sound is that of  a ship's horn ringing through the air. As it comes closer, we duck into the water to avoid any chance of being seen.

It was the first time on the surface and I immediately fell in love with it. All of it. My golden tail reflecting the many  stars in the sky, the smile on my father's face that I hadn't  seen in a long while, Onee-chan finally off her conch, and Mommy just being, well, Mommy.

I knew someone was spying on me, and I knew who that someone was.

"Daddy," I asked. "Can you set me down? I um... need to go to the bathroom."

"Sure." he lets me down and I swim off to my friend who had been the one  spying on me.

"What are you doing?" I question him, a smirk filling my face.

He immediately blushes. "N-nothing..."

"You're lying~" I press." I saw you stalking me~"

"Was not!" he yells in reaction and I giggle. He stops his tantrum and smiles.

'He has always liked my giggles...' I thought.

"Wait a sec, Why and how were you able to get out of the city?" I  ask.

"Dragons don't have the same blood as the mer, remember?" I nod. He was one of the last sea Dragons left alive. They have the same features as humans, though they have scales in random places. As long as they stayed in the water, scales would continue to grow on them until they completely covered the body. But he was only the same age as me, so the only scales he had were on his neck and back. I knew this because Dragons only wore enough cloths to cover their...parts.

"Why did you even follow me?"

"Virgo-sama told me to," that was what I had guessed. Dragons were all hard laborers or personal assistants for the royal family. When it was my tern to choose my dragon assistant, there were only four to choose from since Onee-chan had already chosen one, the only female. It was quite easy. I had already known him, and the rest of the dragons, around the court, cleaning. He was delacite, yet somehow rough. It was too hard to explain. And, of course, I chose him.

"Hey, how's your sister handling Michele-onee-chan?" I ask, trying to change the subject. 

He laughs and says "Your sister is much kinder to her than I expected. My sister always come back to the orphanage smiling."

"By the way,---

My daydream was cut off by a pain on my forehead. I must have been swimming the entire time because I had ran into the sharp incline that lifted up into a cliff.

Stage one of my plan to escape completed. I swim to the surface. It's so beautiful. I breath in the cool, salty air and take in my surroundings. The sound of waves crashing into the ageless rock. The salt still stuck to my skin. A teenager falling off the cliff. Ah~ I love it here.

...

...

'WHAT IS THAT GUY THINKING!!! WHAT AM I THINKING!? Why am I not swimming over to save him!?' I thought to myself and emidiatly took action. I cast a simple song spell to reverse gravity. Though weak since I am not in the water, it softened the blow to a miniscule splash.

When I swam over to him, he was knocked out. Probably from fear. My eyes were just getting used to the dryness of the air, so he just looked like a blob of color. I pushed him to a small crevice in the cliff covered in sand. I left him there to regain consciousness.

I started to swim away. I looked back. 

I shouldn't have never done that.

Natsu's POV Earlier That Day

"Hey ice-princess~" I taunted to my best friend/rival.

"What do you want, flame-brains?" he asked in a not-so-teasingly voice.

I smirked one of my famous smirks, "Wonna play truth-or-dare?" I asked, mockingly. The last time we played that game, Ezra, one of our friends, dared him to keep his cloths on for an entire day. I know it sounds very easy, but not for Gray. He... is a stripper. Well, he does it unconsciously. Always has.

"Sure..." he says, with an expression that made me think he was planning something. "As long as I can go first..." he says with a smirk. I know my friend all too well.

I do an over-dramatic sigh and agree, "Fi~ne."

"Well then..." Gray does a silent, malicious laugh. "I dare you to... hm. How about you jump off that cliff?" Without a change of expression, I got out of my seat and left the classroom.

That is how I got myself into this mess.

I wasn't planning on acualy jumping, but a sudden gust of wind pushed me off it.

I blacked out.

'Ah, another one of those dreams' I thought to myself. I've been having them for a while, now. Ever since I lost my memories, that is. 'Maybe this time I'll  get most of my memories back, before I die.' I shocked myself with the last bit. The memory-dream started.

All was black. I can see a little light and hear the giggles of a female, a child. I open my eyes fully to see a blurry figure smiling at me. My vision cleared to see another face in front of mine. She has long, blonde hair, and a radiant smile. We are talking about our... sisters, I think, and something she says makes me uncomfortable.

'I wonder why she keeps appearing in my dreams?' I ask myself when the dream is over, though I am still unconscious.

Then, I wake up. I am on a sandy crevice in the side of the cliff. When I look out onto the water, I see a girl. Swimming off. What surprises me is not that of she she has a tail where legs should be, but that...

Natsu and Lucy's POV

It's that person.

A/N: The first chapter took me waaay to long. Not to mention that it's so shooort. ☹️ Sorry.
