Me: Welcome to the second chapter of my newest fanfic! *turns to everyone* HIT IT!

Lucy, Erza: Our lovely author does not own Fairy Tail or any of it's characters!

Natsu, Grey: Our demon author does not own Fairy Tail or us, thank god.

Happy: Fish does not own Fairy Tail or me! (they all say it at the same time)

Lucy, Erza: GUYS! YOU SCREWED UP THE DISCLAIMER! *demonic aura*

Natsu, Grey, Happy: *squeaks* A-a-ay-aye! I mean n-n-no m-ma-ma'am!

Me: *mutters* Just give me a break…

Lucy's POV

I walked through the forest, trying to decide where to go from here. I leaned against the tree, beginning to feel exhausted from the hours of walking I had done so far.

The thought occurred to me that I could just join another guild. I mentally thought of all the guilds in Fiore, trying to decide which would be good.

Sabertooth…? No, too violent.

Twilight Ogre…? No, not my thing…

Lamia Scale…? Well, it's not like I have anything against them, but… no.

Quarto Cerberus…? No, WAY too eccentric!

Mermaid Heel…? No, a little bit too stuck up… in all honesty…

Raven Tail…? No, I don't know much about that one…

Blue Pegasus…? Well, it is a nice guild… and I know some of the members, so… it might just be perfect!

I smiled to myself, and began to walk to the guild, when it suddenly occurred to me, I don't know where it is!

I quickly pulled out one of my silver keys. "Open! Gate of the Compass! Pyxis!" I called, summoning the penguin-like creature to my aid.

"Hello, Lucy-sama, how may I be of service to you?" he asked.

"Can you help me find the Blue Pegasus guild, please? And drop the –sama, we're friends." I smiled at him kindly.

"Of course, Lucy!" he exclaimed happily. "This way!" he pointed north. "Just keep walking in this direction!" he smiled proudly.

"Thank you so much, Pyxis! If the location changes, please notify me immediately." I said, giving him permission to speak to me telepathically until I had reached my destination. He 'poofed', and returned to the Spirit World.

I began the achingly long trek through the woods.

A couple of hours later, I heard a rustling from behind me, followed by a soft growl. I spun around, and saw a huge white tiger, as big as me, no, bigger, with large wings folded against the side of it's body. It growled softly at me as it approached.

"What is your name?" a strong masculine voice echoed through the woods. I glanced around, before realising it was the tiger who had spoken.

"You can talk?!" I exclaimed in shock.

"Yes. I can fly, too. Now that we have that out of the way, what is your name?" he asked, more insistent.

"Lu…" I trailed off hesitantly. "Luciana." I said, deciding that would be my name.

"Luciana… that is a very suitable name." he smiled at me, or at least, the tiger equivalent. "My name is Kuro. I would like to be your partner."

"Why?" I tilted my head at him in confusion. He laughed, a warm laugh that made you want to join in.

"Because you have a great potential of magical energy, as a Celestial Dragon Slayer. I would like to have the honour of being your partner. I, myself, can use light and shadow dragon slaying magic, as well as flying carrying up to five people. I can use healing magic, also." He bowed his head respectfully.

"Okay!" I said excitedly, before something else he said occurred to me. "Wait, Celestial Dragon Slayer? Me?" I asked, completely confused again.

"Yes. My mother was your mother's partner, when she was the Celestial Dragon Slayer. It falls to you to take this responsibility, as the peace keeper, and ruler of the dragons."

"And how will I learn it? I don't exactly see any dragons around here." I said dryly, being to feel sceptical.

"Get on." He laughed, offering his back to me. I did, and he quickly took to the skies. I shrieked a little, and grabbed on to his soft fur, lying flat against his back. He laughed.

"There is nothing to fear, Luciana. I will not let you fall." He said gently. I relaxed at his words, and sat up, enjoying the feeling of the wind and watching the soft clouds float past. I trailed my hand through one, and it came out covered in moisture. I giggled, which turned into a full blown laugh. I laughed harder than I had in weeks.

Me: And that's the end of the second chapter! Please tell me what you think!

Gajeel: They will probably hate it.

Me: What the hell are YOU doing here?! I haven't written you in yet!

Gajeel: Yeah, yeah, Blondie. Just work on giving me an ultra-cool part in your other fanfics, all right?

Lucy, Erza: Gajeel! Stop bugging the author! She'll write you in when she's ready! *demonic aura*

Gajeel: *smoke outline of his body because he ran away*

Natsu: HEY! Get back here! Gajeel! Fight meeeeeeeee! *runs after him leaving trail of dust*

Everyone: *sweatdrop*
