Chapter One- New Student


Lucy stood standing in front of the gates of Fiore Academy. She sighed inwardly. Another year at some random ass place in a random ass school with some random ass people. Could life get any better?

Whether she wanted to admit it or not, the building was impressive. It looked to be about three stories tall, with beautiful arched windows and a stone exterior. There were various other buildings surrounding the main building. All in all, it was almost as big as her mansion. Almost.

Lucy walked past the school's gates. She wondered if she could skip. Maybe she could find Sting and ditch with him? If she remembered correctly, he went to school here. She hadn't told him of her transfer, though. She couldn't wait to see the surprised look on his face when he saw her.

She looked at the school map which Ms. Spetto had given to her, about to make her way over to the library so she could hack the school's system and get Sting's schedule when a voice suddenly called out to her.

"Ms. Heartfilia?"

Lucy turned to see an older girl in a reddish-pink dress. She had long white hair hanging loose except for a cute ponytail that held her bangs together, and her eyes were blue. She had a sweet smile and seemed really nice. So she's one of those people, Lucy thought suspiciously. That left only one option…

"Maybe. What do you want?" Lucy replied rather coldly.

The woman seemed only slightly taken aback by her rudeness, but her smile never faltered.

"My name is Mirajane Strauss," she introduced herself, "I'm the assistant principal and I've been assigned to help you get situated at our school. Why don't we start by getting your schedule and uniform? And then I can show you around!" she suggested brightly.

Lucy sighed heavily. Looks like there was no escaping the wrath of the assistant principal. "Whatever then. Let's just get this over with."

Mirajane led her up to the main building and past the wide double doors. The interior looked like any other high school. Bright lighting, lockers lined up against the walls, brightly colored posters occupying various spaces, and hallways leading to the depths of Hell. Okay well maybe not that last one, but still.

They turned a corner and wound up at the main office. Mirajane spoke to a woman behind the counter regarding Lucy's schedule and uniform, both of which were handed to her. She glanced at her schedule.

1st Period: Gym with Elfman Strauss

2st Period: English with Duke Everlue

3nd Period: Music with Vidaldus Taka

Lunch Break

4rd Period: Calculus with Mavis Vermillion

5th Period: Biology with Porlyusica

Wow, so basic. No quantum physics? Or rocket science? Or anatomy? Looks like this school was going to be so much easier than her previous private school. Hmm. Maybe it's a public school thing? Lucy thought. She'd never been to a public school before but this was the only school within walking distance of her house, and she refused to be driven around by her servants.

Next up: her uniform. The skirt was fairly short and the neckline looked like it wasn't going to hide her cleavage. The colors weren't bad at least: red and gold. Whoever designed this uniform must be a perv, though.

"There's a bathroom through here so you can change," Mirajane gestured towards a door to their left. Lucy went in and quickly changed into her new uniform. It was a tight around certain, err, areas, but nothing she couldn't manage. She stuffed her clothes into her empty backpack and returned to Mirajane.

Mirajane nodded approvingly. "Right. This way, please."

Lucy followed her out the main office. Mirajane showed her the various floors, the cafeteria (which was currently empty), the indoor gym and indoor swimming pool, both of which had outside counterparts, and other areas of interest that Lucy could care less about, with one exception: the library! Lucy would have stood there admiring the library in all its glory except that she didn't want Mirajane to witness her love of books. Rule #1: keep information about yourself hidden. Instead, Lucy just shrugged, much like she had with all the other places.

They'd finally made it out of the main building and outside to the school grounds. Most of the buildings out here were just classrooms. Mirajane took her over to the field, where there appeared to be a game of soccer in progress. There were 7 players on each team. One team clad in gold, the other in red. Currently, a boy on the red team with spiky pink- yes, PINK, - hair was making his way across the field with the ball. He was blocked by two opponents though, one with spiky blond hair and the other with black emo-looking hair (no offense).

The boy jerked to a stop. "Erza!" he called, and kicked the ball in the direction of his red-headed teammate. She captured the ball with her feet and proceeded to run to the goal. Damn, she was fast. One of the defense players blocked her path and she literally just RAMMED him aside and kept going, shooting the ball into the goalie, who was knocked off her feet and propelled into the net, which surprisingly didn't break.

"One point for team Fairy Tail!" The referee yelled.

What the fuck?! That was totally a FOUL! Lucy shook her head. They must be fucking crazy. Either that or they don't know the rules of soccer.

Mirajane chuckled slightly. Damn, my expression gave me away. Lucy proceeded to look bored again.

"Don't worry. This is normal," she said.

"Whatever."

By the time they finished the tour, it was time for second period to start. Mirajane escorted her to her class and wished her good luck. Lucy only muttered. She entered the classroom and took a seat in the very back, not caring if it was already spoken for. She watched passively as students entered the classroom. She noticed when some of the students from the soccer game earlier entered. She recognized the strange hair right away. The boy with pink hair made his way to her, followed by a boy with blueish-black hair and no shirt on, and another boy with long spiky black hair and piercings all over his face. She noticed that they all had the same tattoo- just different colors. She couldn't make out what it was, though.

The two boys behind Pinkie took the seats on either side of Lucy, while Pinkie just stood in front of Lucy's desk.

"That's my seat," he said in a tone that suggested it was the most obvious thing in the world. Lucy had figured that out using common sense, but she wasn't going to give in so easily.

"Actually," she said, "this seat belongs to the school. So unless you own the school, which I don't think you do, then this is not your seat. So fuck off."

The three boys were stunned. Did this girl actually talk to Natsu Dragneel like that? The boy to her left, Piercing Face, punched himself to see if he was dreaming. Exhibitionist over on the right took off his pants, though Lucy wasn't sure how that was suppose to prove anything.

Pinkie's face flushed pink with anger. Ha, that's ironic. "You looking for a fight, Blondie?!" he yelled.

Lucy smirked. This kid had guts going up against her. She stood up abruptly, her chair scraping backwards in the process. "Only if you're offering," she retorted. She considered using that but quickly dismissed the thought. No, she could never. That was another rule. Never use that. Still, even without it, she was pretty sure she could kick his ass.

The two squared off, staring at each other intensely. His onyx eyes glared into her beautiful brown ones, until a strange feeling flashed across his face. Recognition, perhaps? Lucy was about to ask what the deal was until she heard her name called.

"Lucy?" a surprised voice asked.

Lucy broke her gaze from Pinkie's and leaned slightly to look behind him. Her face changed from a glare to a full-fledged grin.

"Sting!" she exclaimed with delight. The three boys were, once again, stunned.

"Sting, you know this chick?" Pinkie asked the blonde boy.

"What's it to you, Dragneel?" Sting spat. He looked back at Lucy. "What are you doing hanging around with those losers? Come sit with me!" he said, gesturing towards the middle of the room where she recognized members of the gold soccer team clustered.

"Sure," she replied happily, and picked up her belongings. She was about to head towards Sting when Pinkie, err, Dragneel, blocked her path.

"What?" she said angrily.

"This isn't over yet," he said in a low, attractive voice, his eyes smoldering into hers. Lucy pushed him aside, not wanting him to see her blush.

Natsu watched as the girl sat down next to Sting, who was conducting introductions. Tch, damn Sabertooth. Natsu sat down and took his seat.

"Things just got interesting, didn't they, Flamehead?" Gray smirked. Gajeel agreed with a "geehee."

Natsu smiled wickedly. "If I know anything at all, it's this…" Gray and Gajeel both leaned in curiously. "One, I like her." Gray and Gajeel nodded in agreement. "And two, she's one of us." That left both of them stunned yet again for the millionth time.

"Are you sure about that, Natsu?" Gajeel asked seriously.

Natsu leaned back in his chair and propped his feet up on his desk.

"One hundred percent," he grinned widely.

Gajeel and Gray both looked at each other thoughtfully. Looks like things were more interesting than they had originally thought.

This was gunna be fun.
