Lucy p.o.v

"Gray!" I shouted, "Put on some clothes!".

"Aaaah, What the-, how did I?", he said. I stifled a giggle.

This guild never changes does it? I thought to myself. "Oi, Lucy, come here for a sec, we need to talk" said Natsu and Gray in surprising unison. "Don't imitate me you slanty eyed bastard", said Gray, "What'd you say? You pickin a fight huh, you droopy eyed bastard?!" replied Natsu. I could totally feel the prickly atmosphere between those two as they bickered, I sighed.

* Short time skip*

We were now standing outside in the freezing cold. "So what do you guys want?" I said lazily. I tensed when I sensed their hesitation, to ease things up a bit I said, "What? Just spit it out you two!" I said playfully while I forced an idiotic smile. "Well, erm… we were just wondering if you could like leave our team for a bit and let Lisanna join", said Gray trying not to hurt my feelings. I was about to say yea sure but I heard Natsu say something that really ticked me off, in fact it ticked me off so much that I could've killed him right there on the spot. "You're really weak, you know." He said, "You should get stronger, It's kinda hard for people to believe that you're actually from Fairy Tail, you're practically useless on missions, you always get beat up and hide behind your spirits" he added. I growled and said, "Sure, I get it, I'm weak but you didn't have to put it that way you know! You have zero sense of delicacy!" I yelled back. "Oi, Natsu, that was going overboard, you idiot!" shouted Gray. "But I was right wasn't I?! Bloody Hell! Lisanna's way better than you!" he blurted. Natsu looked a little guilty and regretted it the second he said it but Lucy couldn't care less. "Is that how it is?! What do you think I am, a tool?! I didn't join this guild to replace Lisanna till she came back you know!" I shouted in his face.

To my surprise, Gray hollered at me, "You were never replacement for Lisanna! How could you even think that?! Is that how you saw us that whole time, Lucy?! I'm really disappointed in you!". I flinched and held back my tears. Gray had never shouted at me before, did he hate me? "Did you really think that I meant that?!", I yelled again suddenly angry. " Lucy! Would just stop being such a whiny, stubborn and weak brat?! It's over, you're out of the team, go and train some more" said Natsu coldly. They started walking away, leaving me all alone, somehow, this action seemed so familiar, I felt empty. It started raining, I just stood there soaking in the rain and let my tears out without making a sound.

Lisanna's p.o.v

I wonder if Lucy-san is alright. I hope she doesn't hate me for causing her to quit the team. It's raining, she'll get a cold if she doesn't come back soon. Natsu and Gray have been looking murderous ever since they came back, I guess they had a fight. I wonder if they're all right.

*Time Skip*

Lucy's p.o.v

I still can't go back to the guild, I'm still fuming at Natsu and Gray for what they said. I walked past a girl crumpled on the floor on the side of the streets, she looks like Lisanna I thought. Wait, what? I reeled backwards and stared at the girl. "Lisanna? Whoa! What happened to you, are you alright?" I asked. Lisanna's eyes flickered open and stared at me pleadingly, "Please, help me. I was attacked by these random people", she whispered. Her eyes suddenly widened in shock as she caught a glimpse of what was behind me, I glanced back saw some creepy thugs holding baseball bats. "Are those the guys that hurt you, Lisanna?" I said in a lifeless voice, she nodded in response. They charged at me, I managed to dodge their swings but one of them managed to kick me in the stomach, I dropped to one knee. They took the chance and started beating me up, I screamed as they shattered one of my ribs. I clutched desperately at my ribs, it was starting to hurt really badly, Scorpio and Aquarius were out of commission, so were Loki and Aries. I didn't think if Sagittarius or Taurus. Finally, I stood up and summoned Gemini, "Do it now! The U.M!" I screamed. I joined hands with Gemini as she transformed herself into me. The thugs stared in fear as we started to chant:

Survey the Heaven, Open the Heaven…

All the stars, far and wide…

Show me thy appearance…

With such shine.

O Tetrabiblos…

I am the ruler of the stars…

Aspect became complete…

Open thy malevolent gate.

O 88 stars of Heaven…

Shine!

URANO METRIA!

The thugs took the blow head on and were sprawled on the floor groaning in pain, "Get your asses out of here before I kill you!" I growled, "Yes ma'am!", they squeaked as they ran off. I sank to the floor, completely depleted of my magic power. " Thank you for sa-", Lisanna started to say when she was interrupted by a familiar pink haired dragon slayerand his team behind him. "Lucy! Wait, Lisanna! Are you okay?!", he said as he rushed frantically over to her, the rest followed completely ignoring me. Natsu suddenly turned to me and glared murderously at me,I flinched imperceptibly, tears welled up as I hear what her said, "How dare you do this to Lisanna, to our comrade!", he bellowed.
