Fairy tail and its characters aren't mine

A Fated Meeting

By: Clovergiel

Chapter 1: Unexpected Meeting

I saw nobody in the dark of the night. I continued to call out for someone, but still, no one answered me. Maybe I was just imagining things. I headed my way to the beach when someone suddenly grabbed my right arm and kissed me passionately on the lips. It was so gentle. I have never been kissed before but I know this was a gentle one. But who is this guy after all? This stranger just took away my precious first kiss from me!

I am Lucy Heartfilia. 16 years old. A 1st year high school student from Fairy Tail Academy. Captain of our school's Girl Scout Club. I graduated as a valedictorian from my middle high and now, I'm aiming for the top spot. I'm the youngest ever captain of our club, being only a 1st year and having almost 2/3 of our members as juniors and seniors. No wonder they loved me so much, I became the ace of our school in no time when I bring them to international level in Journalism, specifically News writing, and winning the first place. I also have a very good leadership skill, which surpasses those of my senpai. I'm from a middle class family that's why I'm striving hard to help my father. So now join me in the adventure of my life at FAIRY TAIL ACADEMY!

"LUCY! Hurry up now or you will be late for your last day!" A blonde haired man in a blue polo shirt called out to Lucy.

He was Lucy's father, Jude Heartfilia. He alone took care of Lucy since her mother, Layla Heartfilia died when giving birth to her. That's why Lucy is so precious to him. And she also loves her father so much.

"Yes father! I'm coming down now!" She answered back as she hurriedly ran down the stairs.

"What do you think about my look father?" She said as she slowly turned around to let her father see her whole appearance.

"Wow! You look very cute today!" He said to her daughter proudly.

She was wearing her favorite set of uniform: a white blouse with a blue coat and a red ribbon over it, a blue skirt that blends perfectly with her white skin tone, socks up to her knee, and her favorite black leather shoes. Her blonde hair was separated sideways and the larger half was pinned with a large ribbon that matches her uniform. She also curled her long hair in the lower part with the curlers she just bought yesterday.

"Of course! Today was the last day I can wear these clothes again so, I give it my best shot," she said happily.

"Enough of that already. If you don't hurry up now, you're gonna miss this SPECIAL day!"

"Oh that's right! I'm gonna be late by now! Father, let's hurry up!" She said as she hurriedly ran to the front seat of the car.

"Father, let's go now!" She yelled to his father. She cannot wait until she goes to her school. She's very excited to see her friends and at the same time, lonely for she would not be able to see them for about a whole month or two.

"Okay, Okay! I'll just get the key for the car," he said as he reached for the keys at the top of the table beside the painting of Lucy's mother.

"Layla, can you see your daughter now? She's beginning to grow more beautiful like you. In no time, you two would become the carbon copy of each other," he said with a smile." Bye for now, your daughter will kill me if I made her late." He said as he turned to go outside.

"Father! Hurry up!"

"Yes, I'm already here." He closed the door of the car, started the engine, and drove the car off to Fairy Tail Academy.

A black Delica van stopped in front of the academy's gate. A girl stepped out of it and started bidding goodbye to his father. Lucy closed the car's door and started heading off inside the school.

Lucy's room was in 1-A, which was located at the 2nd floor of the building. As she was about to walk up the stairs, a familiar voice called out to her from behind.

"Lucy! I'm so glad to see you. Wow! As I expected, you'd really style yourself perfectly today. Ever since middle high, when it's the end of school year, you're always so gorgeous. And now, you have exceeded my expectations." A beautiful red-head girl in the same uniform as Lucy called out to her. She was Erza Scarlet, Lucy's best friend ever since middle high.

But Erza isn't the only one who noticed Lucy's look, there are other girls who are not happy to see a beautiful Lucy today. Well, it's obvious, studying at an all-girls school would make girls envy at you if you are taking so much attention. Well, it happens all the time, and as for Lucy, who have a good record, very high grades, perfect look, everything. Maybe, except for being the only girl at school who doesn't have a boyfriend at either from their brother school, Blue Pegasus academy, or a boy from their village. Lucy loved to tidy herself up but she is the one who doesn't go for boys.

The two of them hear murmurs as they walk in the hallway.

"Lucy, don't mind them. They're just envy of us because they are not as beautiful as us. Haha! They're all just talks and gossips. They can't even stand a face against me or even look me in the eye. Tch. Pitiful cowards."

"Well, I don't really mind."

They stopped in front of their classroom door. Erza opened the door and they headed for their seats. Lucy sat down in her chair and as if a cue, the school bell rang.

Their homeroom teacher, Macao-sensei, entered the room and the noisy class started to fall silent.

"So, as I see the looks of you, I can tell that all of you are excited for the summer break and also because classes are going to end today," as the topic was brought up, the class suddenly get noisy again. "But I guess not all of you will have a free summer this time." Silence started to spread like a disease and you can see bemused expressions etched at the student's faces. The teacher gestured, signalling someone to come in.

"Principal Makarov will tell to you the rest of the details." after saying that, he turned to talk to the principal. "Principal, please excuse me." He said and started to leave after giving a bow.

"Yes, Macao-sensei," he said. The homeroom teacher left the room to give the principal some time to speak.

"As Macao-sensei had already said, some of you will be doing something this summer."

Lucy was thinking that the school might have some kind of summer classes. But at the second thought, why would their school need that? She hasn't heard anyone with failing grades, considering that their school excels especially in academics, so she was thinking maybe there was another reason.

"Is the Girl Scout captain here?"

Lucy was stunned. She was shocked by the sudden call for her.

"U-uh yes! I'm the captain, Kouchou-sensei!" She said as she stood up to show respect. So it was about club activities after all...

"Ah, that's good! As you all know, almost all of our school's populations are members of the Girl Scout club, and the same goes for our brother school. So the school administration that holds the interconnection between the two schools, namely, I, Makarov and Blue Pegasus Principal, Bob, thought of some activities including the two schools. Especially for you, first year students, who mostly haven't seen yet the students from the other school. So we're thinking of having a joint summer camp between our Girl Scout club and their Boy Scout club. The camp would last for about a month or two. So I'm looking forward for the captain to settle things up. I want you to tell the other sections and year levels about the event and give them these forms." The Principal gave Lucy letters for the parents to sign in saying that they are allowing their daughters to participate in the event.

"Yes, kouchou-sensei."

"So that's all I have to say. Goodbye to you and have a good day!" He said as he started to leave the room.

The whole class became excited as they heard the news. Especially Lucy, she didn't expect this kind of event can happen. She's now starting to get fired up in this upcoming summer camp.

The school bell rang, signalling the dismissal of classes. Lucy had just finished informing every class and giving the forms.

According to the letter, they will have the camp at Tenrou Island, a holy island with a beach near it. And it will be starting two days from now. The scouts will meet in front of the school and buses will pick them up to Tenrou Island. The bunks are air conditioned and the scouts can form groups of at most ten and pick their desired bunk to live in throughout the camp. The Girl Scout's bunks would be separated from the boy scouts. The girls' rooms would be far from beach while the boys' would be near the beach. Between them would be the teachers. The camp would last for a month and a half. This event would include enrichment activities for the scouts and team-buildings that can test and enhance their intelligence, teamwork, leadership and creativity.

Lucy was in the locker room getting all of her things when Erza suddenly show up.

"Hi Lucy! Are you already leaving?"

"Ah yes! I need to prepare for the camp."

"L-lucy..." she said in a low, sad voice. "We cannot meet this summer. I'm not a part of the Girl Scout club because I'm captain of the Judo club. I'm gonna miss you so much!" She said and gave her a big hug.

"Erza, don't worry. I'll update you in every minute." She said as she hugged her back tighter.

"Then this means it's the last day I'm gonna see you." She said sobbing a little and hugged her very tight.

"We'll see each other after two months. Or if you like, I'll visit you right after we come back here. What do you think?"

"That's a good idea! By the way, you'll be having joint camp with the Pegasus' right? Then that means so much fun! You'll have all those cool boys around. Isn't that fun?"

"I'm not really looking forward to that thing. I like to have fun and show them that we are better."

"Oh that reminds me! Do you know any boy scout from there?"

"None of them."

"Even the captain? Too bad, I heard the captain is so cool, charming, have perfect records, very handsome, and everything. He's so perfect. He is a 2nd year student and heir of a very rich family. But they said he isn't interested in girls but still, he's not like the one who hates them, he's not just interested. I think his name was Loke Cross."

"You seemed to be well-informed about that guy."

"Don't you know him? ALMOST everybody knows him, well except for you. By the way, Lucy, aren't you two the same? You both have perfect traits but aren't interested in the opposite sex." She said as she let out a chuckle. "But from what I heard…," Erza said, starting to lower her voice a little. "….many girls are attending just because of him."

"You still surprised?" she said letting out a laugh.

"You're right. Okay, I think it's time for us to go home. Bye Lucy! See you in 1 1/2 month." She said as she ran away waving her hand at Lucy.

"Sheesh...that girl. Blabbing about other guys when she has a boyfriend. Hmmm...Loke Cross...I would not let my scouts be in second place. I wouldn't let you use your charm to them just to make them follow what you want. Maybe I don't know you yet but I'm getting bad vibes just hearing your name." She said to herself as she shut her locker down.

"Lu-chan!" a girl from behind her called out to her. She turned to see who it was. It was Levy Mcgarden. She was with four other people namely, Cana Alberona, Juvia Lockser, Lisanna Strauss, and Wendy Marvell. They were all Lucy's friends and club mates.

"Oh Levy, it's you! Hi, guys!"

"Lu-chan, is it okay if we'll be with you in the same room? We are still not enough in numbers and still searching for some."

"Of course, I'll be glad to be with all of you!"

"Yes, we're all set. The captain is with us so we won't have a problem." Juvia said.

"Uhhmm... is it okay for me to count in my sister, Mira-neechan?" Lisanna said.

"Oh! Mirajane Strauss? She's a 2nd year right? And she is the secretary of the Girl Scout club so it's good for her to be on our side." Cana said.

"Oh really? Thank you guys!" And they all have a group hug.

"I'll suggest someone," Lucy said. "How about the vice captain? What do you think?"

"KAREN LILICA? NO WAY!" The five said in unison.

"Wait wait! Do you have some grudge in her? She's nice—" Lucy was interrupted by Wendy.

"To her friends. I know that you know what bad things that senior has done to every girl in this campus. And we all know she'd refuse us in the first place, because she envies you and we aren't close to her." She said with hatred.

"Okay, okay I understand. I was just joking. I just wanted to see you reactions. And I just thought you'd like another high-ranking officer in our bunk."

"Anyone but her." Levy said.

"Okay, I think I'm gonna go home first. Bye guys!" Lucy said to them as she waved her hand at them.

"Oh, Lucy! You're up so early today, huh!" her father said while holding a newspaper.

Lucy was wearing her Girl Scout uniform and was carrying a big blue traveling bag and a yellow backpack filled with stuffs she has been preparing these whole two days. Her hair was tied in a high ponytail.

"Of course, father! Today is the BIG DAY! The one that—"

"The one that you've always been telling me for about a million times?" her father told her, telling her first before she could go tell the whole plan again.

"Yeah, that one. I'm really looking forward to it. I can't wait until I'm already there!"

"Are you going there because it is full of boys?" her father said, already knowing what her daughter's reaction is gonna be.

"OF COURSE NOT! I'm there for FUN, not boys! I think this is gonna be the best SUMMER ever! Gotta go now, father!" she said as she gave him a quick kiss on the cheek before leaving the room.

He heard the door shut. "Really, I've been worrying when my child will fall in love. I hope this is it." He said and sighed when the door suddenly opened up. There stood Lucy, gasping for air after running all the way back home.

"Is it cancelled?" asked her father as he smirked widely.

"Don't jinx it, father. And I haven't got to school yet." She went to his father extending her arms, giving to him a piece of paper, "please sign this. I forgot to give you this because I was all excited over the camp."

"Okay, I need—" he was interrupted when she handed him a ball pen.

He get it and said, "Yeah, that's what I need," finally, signing the paper.

"Thanks, father, bye!" she said as she finally said goodbye.

"Hi, Lu-chan!" Levy said waving at her. Lucy finally arrived and she saw Levy and Cana.

"Where are the others?" she asked the both of them.

"Oh, they still aren't here," Cana said to her, who was frantically glancing at her cell phone at every five seconds, waiting for messages or phone calls. "But Lisanna told me that she would be here soon, with her sister."

"Yeah! Wendy told me too, that she would be here in ten minutes. And Juvia—she's already here now! Hi Juvia!" Levy said, also waving at her. "By the way, Lucy, why aren't you with your dad's car now? That's so odd!"

"Ah that? I told him that I wanted to experience coming here alone," she said while smiling.

"So, that's why. By the way the others are already here. We're complete!" Cana blurted out. Lisanna and Wendy were waving at them as they run near the three. Behind them was the beautiful Mirajane.

"Hi guys! So you were my sister's friends! Nice to meet you all! Oh, the captain is here, Hi Lucy-chan! I'm glad to be with you." Mirajane said to Lucy. Lucy smiled and nodded in response.

'I hope Erza's here. I will really miss you.'Lucy thought to herself. Her thoughts were interrupted when suddenly a hand closed her eyes from behind. She turned to see who it was and she was surprised to see Erza.

"Erza!" she said as she gave her a hug, "What are you doing in here?"

"Uhmm, I switched clubs. I decided to be in the Girl Scout club and join you in here," she said to her sarcastically.

"Really?"

"Just kidding. I was here to see you. Who would give up being a captain just to be with a friend? You, would you give up your position for me?" she said to her teasingly.

"Erza… you're always making me cry!" she said to her leaning to her chest.

"Don't worry I'll always call you. Take care of yourself there and good luck on boys—I mean camp!" she said trying to make her friend laugh. However, it's a success!

"Oh the buses are here! Come on, before the others take our seats," Lisanna said.

"Bye, Erza. I'll call you once we're there. BYE!" she said while waving her hands to her.

"Yeah, bye Lucy." She smiled and said to herself, "I hope she'll already meet her fated one." She sighed and left.

"Now that all of you are here, we would let you rest today after your long journey," Makarov said to all the students, including the boys from Blue Pegasus. The students just sighed due to exhaustion. No one seemed to be energetic enough after traveling for 9 hours.

"The boys would take the bunks at the west, while the east would be for the girls. Now I bet, you have grouped yourselves already so pick the bunks you wanted and rest all you want. We'll start tomorrow for the activities. Is it clear, scouts?" Bob, principal of Blue Pegasus said.

"Yes, Principal Bob," the scouts said lifelessly.

"Another thing, your rooms now will be temporary. Three days from now, we will be assigning you your rooms according to your performances. That's all. Have a nice day to all of you." Then the two principals left the scouts and headed to their office.

"Lucy, let's take this one," Levy said pointing to the room with "East #4" written on the door.

"Okay. Let's take a look," she opened the door and was amazed at what she saw. It was pretty spacious and the room was truly air-conditioned. There were about five double-deck beds. There were cabinets beside the beds and there were also two bathrooms.

"This is totally amazing. I mean I could live in here FOREVER!" Wendy said.

"I'll take this one," Levy said claiming the lower part of the third bed from the door where beside it was a lamp. She needed it when she has to read books when she was bored. The others began claiming the beds they wanted, leaving four more spots. Lucy was the only one left to pick and she picked the one nearest to the door, and put her things at the lower half of it. She opened her bag and gets her sleeping dress, the one she always used when sleeping (duh?). She started to change in the bathroom and get out for a walk.

She had always wanted to feel the sea breeze at night and also to ease her tiredness so she decided to walk towards the beach. She passed by three bunks from the girls and saw them unpacking, then there were the two rooms for the teachers and then the boys' bunks. In front of the bunks seems like a forest and Lucy was near it so no one would see her there. She saw some boys playing games, the others unpacking also. Then she finally focused her way to the beach.

In the room 'West #14', here live the guys whom Lucy saw playing games. They were eight all in all. One of them was spinning the bottle and the head of the bottle stopped in front of a pink-headed boy.

"Natsu!'' They all said in unison, well, excluding Natsu.

The dark haired boy without a shirt on top who had just spun the bottle thought of a dare for Natsu to do. He suddenly saw a tree in the corner of his eye and an idea came up to him.

"Okay, see that coconut tree over there? I want you to climb it all the way up and get two fresh nuts from it," he smirked thinking that he had made a hard task for him.

"Heh…..what an easy task? You already think that was hard? Watch and learn." He said as he hurriedly run to the tree and he climbed the tree effortlessly. He reached the top and gets two fresh coconuts and carefully climbed down, while holding the nuts. He walked back to their bunk and throws it to Gray, the one who made him do the task.

"Ouch! That hurts!" he said while rubbing his forehead with his left hand.

"Okay it's my turn now," said a ginger-haired boy named Hibiki and started to spin the bottle. It stopped in front of a lion-like orange haired boy who just smirked when it stopped at him.

"Okay, what's the task?" he bravely asked him.

"Wow! Our Captain sure is full of energy today. Hmmm, let's see…Don't worry, I'll make it easy for you." He looked outside to see what he can make the captain do. He looked to his left but saw no one and then looked at his right and saw a blonde haired girl making its way to the beach. "You sure is lucky today, CAPTAIN. See that girl over there. I want you to... KISS her passionately for about...ummhh... 5 minutes!"

"Wow, that's so long Hibiki. I'm really jealous with the captain, getting all the good stuffs." Natsu said, sighing in disappointment.

He stood up and said, "I can make it ten minutes if you want," he said as he walked towards the door and punched Hibiki lightly at his stomach. "Pervert". He headed his way towards the girl.

Lucy heard a rustle of leaves behind her. She turned but saw no one.

"Hey! Is anyone there?" she called out. No one answered her. She called out again, but still no one answered. She just shrugged and continued to walk. She suddenly felt goose bumps when someone grabbed her right arm and make her turn and face that stranger. Before she could see the face of the person clearly, she was shocked when he suddenly kissed her passionately. It lasted very long, it was like it was never going to end. She returned to her senses and tried to push the guy off of her, but he was too strong for her.
