It was like any other day for Lucy. She was walking down the street and people greeted her. She put up a happy face despite how she really felt. It had been a month since they came from Edolas. Lucy met Lisanna and the duo hit it off pretty nicely.

1 Month ago…

When Lisanna returned, she thought Lisanna would be pretty mad to see Lucy replacing her. To her surprise, Lisanna thanked her for looking after Natsu. They shared multiple stories about Natsu and their adventures with each other after their return from tenrou island.

Lucy went to go get Natsu. While she was going to go get him, she found out, he went on a job alone without her. Happy told her Natsu told Happy to stay behind so he could inform Lucy of his decision. She felt a little hurt that she was left behind, but she realized happy, his partner before she joined the team was also left behind.

She didn't feel hurt that much because she realized he was doing this for her own good. She decided she was not going to sit and relax waiting for Natsu to return. She decided she was going on a job with Happy.

When she was looking at the request board with happy and decided to go on a easy job. As she was heading to ask Gray and Erza if they wanna tag along, she heard the two talking secretly.

"Gray, have you thought about it yet? The thing I asked you earlier."

"Yeah… She might be our friend, but honestly… Lucy is actually weak… We can't have her on the team…"

Lucy went pale. She felt like she just got struck in the heart with a sword. She thought to herself, "My friends think I'm weak… They don't want me on the team…"

She heard Gray continue, "It's for her own good. She would just slow us down or get in the way. We will have to save her… The only reason we let her join us was because we considered her as a friend…"

Lucy was in tears by now, and the Merry Happy was shocked beyond belief. Happy almost fell, but Lucy caught him. She sneaked back to the Board. When she was going back, she heard them continue their conversation, but she decided to get away, because she didn't want her heart broken any further.

She looked at all the job requests again. She switched out the easy job with a harder one after Happy told her go on and do it. They thought if they could prove they are strong, they won't think her as weak.

Lucy along with Happy went off to go capture a group of bandits. The bandits were strong and she almost got captured, but Loke came in the nick of time and saved her after asking her out, only to get turned down.

When she returned back to the guild the next day, Wendy rushed to heal her the second she saw her come through the door. Lucy broke her arm, had multiple cuts and bruises, and she was walking with a sprained ankle.

Levy went to her and assisted her. She asked what happened to her. Lucy was about to tell her what happened, but she saw Erza and Gray running towards her.

Erza asked "Lucy what happened? Who did this to you?"

"Bandits on my job. Don't worry, I'm not as weak as you think I am."

"Sorry if we offended you."

Gray asked "Why did you go on the job alone? Why didn't you ask me, Erza or Natsu to tag along?"

"As I said before, I am not as weak as you think I am. Besides, I had happy with me. I can take care of myself… Just leave me alone for now…?"

Lucy headed to her home along with Happy. Later that day, Lisanna returned from a job with Elfman. Upon hearing what happened earlier from Levy, Elfman responded, "Woah, now that's a real man!"

Levy said " I'm going to her house tonight. I wanna check on her and ask her what really happened. I can tell there is something more behind it."

Lisanna asked "Can I come too? I am also one of her friends. I wanna know what happened, and help her during her time of need."

Later that night Lucy was with happy in her house. Both were silent. The cheerful Happy wasn't much cheerful. Levy and Lisanna knocked on the door. Happy answered it and asked if they not talk to Lucy for now. They talked to Happy about what happened. They found out what happened, and were furious. They knew many people in te guild think the same too, but Happy pleaded them not to take action.

The next day she was out in the forest and was training. While she was training she remembered what Happy told her. "Natsu said 'The job is tough so I'm going alone.' He also said 'I can handle it alone, if people come along with me well, lets just say it might possibly get harder.' I stayed behind to tell you that, and also because I can't go with him this time."

Back to present time…

Lucy had trained the past week furiously. She heard people in the guild talking about how Lucy thinks she is strong and how bad she did the previous job. What hurt her even more was Gray talking to Erza asking If Lisanna should replace Lucy.

Lucy couldn't take it anymore. She went to her house and saw happy sleeping. She left a note saying,
"It's been fun. Say goodbye to everyone in the guild for me. ~ Lucy"

Lucy left to go to a shop and bought a book. The book which has instructions to sends people to another world. She decided to go to the world of One piece.

Later that day, Happy came in running. He wanted to see Lisanna and Levy who were talking to Juvia and wendy. Levy asked him what happened. He just showed the note to them. The 2 told Juvia and wendy what Happy told them Earlier.
