Natsu’s Point Of View

A week went by and no encounters with Gin or anyone else. Gray was with Juvia non-stop and everyone was on edge in case anything happened. We heard nothing from Lucy so far. Everyone was waiting for her to get back so we could tell her. I was at the bar with my head on the counter.

“Oh, Natsu. There gotta be something you can do without Lucy.” Mira said.

“I would go on a job but none of them are interesting.” She sighs before going back to cleaning some dishes. I closed my eyes and fell asleep.

When I woke up again everyone was yelling which started to hurt my ears.

“Oh, you awake,” Mira said as she went in front of me.

“Why is everyone yelling?” I said and covered one of my ears.

“They made a bet and some of them are mad that they lost,” Wendy said as she sat next to me. Erza then sat next to me drinking some drink and Gray sat next to her. Mira was looking around to make sure no one else was nearby.

“I know I'm not supposed to say anything but I can clearly see that you guys are worried about Lucy and the threats made,” Mira said in a hushed tone.

“What are you supposed to say?” Gray asked.

“I can see what Lucy is up to right now."

“What do you mean?”

“Master told me that Lucy told him that if she suddenly goes missing or any of that he can find out what happened. On Lucy’s cloak, where it attaches together, well the little gem or whatever it is, is actually a camera. It records none stop. Master told me in case if he’s not here and something happened.”

“Well, how can we see the footage?” I asked.

“Right here.” She placed a lacima in front of us. It was nothing special, just a glass ball.

“Are you sure this is it? It looks like a glass ball.”

“That's the point if it looks like something else than people won't know what it actually is. It is also less likely for Gin to get it too.” While she presses a few buttons on it. A big screen came but she touched the corner and it became smaller.

No One’s Point Of View

On the screen, you could see Lucy looking in the mirror applying lipstick. Her outfit was a black skin type dress. Next to her was a girl with black hair and purple eyes. She was applying red lipstick. Natsu and them could see and hear everything.

“Let's go, ladies, this job isn't going to get it done on its own.”

“Shut up Noah, this is an undercover mission so we can't be seen as our true selves.” The other girl said.

“What about me?” He said looking offended.

“Noah, you blend into the crowd easily so you can hide, we can't hide well,” Lucy said looking at the guy. He had black hair with brown eyes.

“Lucky, it's nice to dress up. Also, don't forget to change your hair.”

“Oh, yea, Lucky called out Cancer so he can do my hair while you finish getting ready,” Lucy mumbled Cancer and he appeared.

“Green.” The girl said as she went to Cancer. He got to work.

“Don't forget to change your eye, Lucky.” Lucy nodded and looked back at the mirror, she focused on her eye and blue started to come out of the pupil till her whole eye was blue. The Fairy Tail members were surprised. Cancer was finished by then and went to Lucy or Lucky.

“Red, short, and curly,” she said. Cancer got straight to work and disappeared once he was finished.

“You guys ready?” Noah said as he was bout to leave.

“Almost.” The girl shouted back as they were putting their heels on.

“Did you put the clothes and everything in the room?”

“Really, Amelia. I got that done this morning.” He said as they all walked out. They all went to the first floor which was a club. I was packed with people dancing, talking, and drinking. They walked to one of the tables that were empty and stood there.

“Amelia, back corner, left,” Noah said. Amelia nodded before heading over. Noah was looking around for the other two targets. Amelia was already on the guy's lap.

“That was fast.” Lucky mumbled to herself as Amelia was pulling the guy into one of the rooms.

“Lucky, right middle, with blondie girl.” She nodded and walked over. She sat down next to the guy.

“Bet that bitch is making you pay but if you come with me, you won't have to pay. Also, all this is real.” She whispered into his ear. He looked at her, gave her a full-body look before standing up. Lucky pulled him into the same room as before. She pushed the guy in first and he saw his knocked out bubby on the floor. He was bout to leave but was smacked on the head. He fell to the floor with a heavy thud. 

“Amelia you're supposed to tie him up,” Lucy said as she was tieing up the man and tossing the other rope to Amelia.

“I just wanted to see his reaction.” She said. Once they were tied up and in the corner and walked back out and went to Noah.

“Did you find her?”

“Yea, second floor at the back.” They followed where he was looking and saw a girl with pink hair. Lucy knew who exactly that was.

“That's Gin. Leave her, she’ll only cause trouble for us. Let's just finish this job.” Lucy said and went to the room next to where the two knocks out guys were. There were bags with a waitress and a waiter's clothes inside. Amelia threw a pair at Lucy while Noah took off his shirt and put on another one. Both Amelia and Lucy pulled off their dresses and put on black pants and a button-up shirt.

“I'm glad that this is a wig,” Amelia said as she pulled off the wig and fixed her hair. Lucy pulled her off and fixed hers.

“We have to be quick so we won't get caught.” She said as she wiped away the makeup. They changed their shoes into flats and went back outside. The two ladies went behind the counter and started making drinks.

“Poison,” Lucy whispered and Amelia handed her a small bottle. She evenly put it into each drink.

“Give this to them and get out of here. We’ll meet you back at the motel.” She told Noah and he went off to a table. Amelia and Lucy walked out and straight to their motel. The Fairy Tail members were surprised that Lucy had poisoned a drink. The two girls went into their room. They both changed into their own clothes. Lucy’s was the same as before, black shirt, cloak, pants, and brown boots while the other girl changed into a tank top and shorts. She was at the front of the mirror wiping away her makeup when she started talking.

“You know, you should really do more jobs with us.”

“Why?”

“Oh come on, we make a great team. The three of us.”

“Nah, I'm fine.”

“*sigh* I knew it,” Amelia said to herself but Lucy heard.

“What do you mean?”

“Lucy, you can be with anyone and do almost everything but you don't and it's all because you still have that god damn guild on your mind.”

“So what if I have them on my mind, there's still my family.”

“A family doesn't abandon one another Lucy. They didn't even look for you after you left.”

“You don't know that Amelia. You don't know a goddamn thing.” Lucy said with anger.

“I know that you still love that boy. What was his name, I think it was Natsu. Do you even know if he was with another girl during the time you were gone? How do you know that your ‘family’ still wants you back? They only took you back out of pity lucy.” Lucy said nothing but the only thing that was heard was a smack and someone falling.

“The next you dare say anything bout my family I won't hesitate to kill you,” Lucy said to Amelia who was on the floor. Lucy was already out of the room when she heard Amelia shouted,

“I’ll kill you next time I see you Heartfillia.” As Lucy continued down the hall she saw Noah but didn't say anything. She walked out of the motel and to the train station. She bought her ticket and waited for the train to come. She stood there for a few minutes before the train pulled into the station. She got on and sat down as it started to move.

The Fairy Tail members were surprised at what they just saw and heard. Mira turned off the lacima and put back where it belonged.

“Don’t say or tell Lucy that you know bout this,” Mira said. They all nodded and took whatever they saw. They couldn't be mad at Lucy for what she did, she was still part of the council. It was also part of her job, she had to do what was said. Juvia walked over to them and placed a hand on Gray’s shoulder.

“You ready to go home?” She asked. They finally noticed that it had gotten dark.

“I'll see you guys later alright.” He said before walking out with Juvia and Storm. Levy asked Wendy for help and Erza asked for a strawberry cake. Natsu just sat there,  bored already. Happy was asleep on his shoulder. He stood up, said his goodbyes before leaving. Instead of heading home, he walked around town. As usual, he felt someone watching him but right now he didn't care bout them. He just wanted time to think before Lucy got back. It was something that Amelia said that he couldn't get off his mind.
