AN/: Hey Alice-chan here with another story! I know I should really finish my other stories first, but I just couldn't help myself! I'm so sorry. This chapter is rather short, but I had to wrap it up fast or my mom was gonna kill me! So here you have it! This is a crossover of Princess Resurrection and Fairy Tail. For those of you who don't know what Princess Resurrection is, you should read it. It's actually pretty good. I'm not going to keep you from the chapter any longer, so without further ado, I give you Alive and Dead!

It was supposed to be a regular mission for Team Natsu of Fairy Tail. Deal with some pesky bandits, that was all. They'd handled dark guilds, demons, and so much worse like the potential destruction of the world along with everything in it, some bandits shouldn't have been a problem. But for some reason everything had went wrong. The bandits turned out to be mages. Not only were they mages, but they were mages of a dark guild. Still, it didn't seem like it would be that tough. Again, they'd handled worse, how bad could a couple of dark guild bandits be?

A fight had erupted between the team and the bandits, as was expected. But, unbeknownst to then there was a slim figure residing in the shadows casually watching their every movement. Her short, black dress blew in the light wind that blew naturally, the rest of the fabric's movement caused by the aftershock of attacks preformed in the ongoing fight. She watched the members intently, her eyes locking on one with seemingly large potential, even if she didn't know it herself. A piece of her long blonde hair swept in front of her eyes and she gently removed it, tucking it back behind her ear as she continued to watch soundlessly.

An attack hit Lucy and it threw her to the ground with a 'thud.' The blonde celestial mage groaned in pain but pushed herself off the ground.

"Lucy, you alright?" Natsu called to her worriedly blocking another attack from his own opponent.

"Yeah, I'm fine! Focus on your own fight," Lucy called back to her partner. Natsu finished off his foe with a final Fire Dragon's Iron Fist.

"How can I do that when I'm worried about you getting your butt kicked over here?" Natsu asked teasingly. Lucy gawked at him for a brief moment before clenching her teeth and whipping out another key.

"You're saying I'm weak?" Lucy asked angrily. Natsu chuckled and shrugged.

"Maybe," he answered. Lucy practically growled through her teeth, readying herself to summon another spirit.

"Don't you dare refer to me as weak!" she screamed with determination. She summoned Taurus and sent him to attack her enemy while she circled around back to get him with her whip. While he was busy with her spirit, she was preparing to capture him with her whip. Expertly she wrapped the tool around his body and tightened it. He stopped moving, tripping and falling to the ground.

"See? I knew you could do it," Natsu said with a bright smile. Lucy snickered back at him, causing him to chuckle at her. "Keep it up," Natsu encouraged. Lucy nodded; there was still a lot to be taken care of. Bandits were still coming at them in waves that seemed never ending. Natsu managed to take out another offender and he flashed a smile at Lucy. "This should be no problem for us, Fairy Tail's strongest team!" Natsu cheered, gaining a sigh from Lucy. Nevertheless, she smiled at him. He was right, and she knew it.

Lucy's thoughts were cut short by a blow to the back. She spun around quickly to see her attacker and moved just in time to avoid a magical attack. But, Lucy made a mistake. She dove to her left instead of her right which would've taken her closer to the center of the fight and closer to her teammates. Their battlefield was located near the mountains, which meant there were cliffs nearby. Her dodge, though it saved her life, had pushed her closer to the edge of one of those cliffs.

"Dammit!" Lucy muttered to herself, cursing herself for carelessly putting herself in more danger than was necessary. The dark mage in front of her snickered delightfully.

"Got you cornered, don't I little missy?" the mage mused. Lucy gritted her teeth and clenched her teeth. This was bad. Lucy reached for her keys, ready to summon her faithful friend that would undoubtedly come to her aid. But, before she could successfully remove her selected key from the key ring, the bandit threw an attack at Lucy's legs. She fell to the ground with a thud.

"Lucy!" Natsu shouted over to her, "Are you alright?"

"Yeah, I'll be fine!" Lucy shouted back reassuringly. Lucy stood up and steadied herself. Instead of reaching for her keys she reached for her whip this time. She tried to get it around the man's legs, but failed when he cleverly dodged it.

"Goodbye little miss fairy," the mage said with a smirk. He shoved his hand at her lower chest and shoved her off the cliff. Lucy flailed as she struggled to gain her footing, but to no avail. Her foot slid off of the edge of the cliff, small bits of rock breaking away and falling with her. Luckily, the cliff wasn't very high and she managed to land without hurting herself too much.

"Lucy!" Natsu shouted in a panic when he saw Lucy slide off the edge of the cliff. He shoved his attacker off of him and rushed to the side of the cliff to try and aid his comrade. "Lucy, you okay?" he shouted down worriedly. He heard Lucy gasp but she lifted her head to flash him a smile and nod.

"I- I'm fine, Natsu! Go help the others! Come back and get me when you guys are done up there!" Lucy shouted up, though not without difficulty.

"Are you sure?" Natsu yelled down, not quite believing Lucy. She nodded and assured him she was fine.

After Natsu disappeared to help Gray and Erza fight Lucy flopped onto the ground. She gasped in pain and choked on her saliva a bit. With lifted a very shaky hand up to her chest where she'd been hit and her fingers wrapped around what seemed to be a handle. She gasped and clenched her teeth as she moved the blade that protruded from her chest.

She took a deep breath and tried to calm her violently shaking body. In one swift movement, she yanked the blade from her body causing a cry of pain to slip past her lips. She covered her wound with her hand, applying pressure to try and slow the bleeding. Her teammates would be done soon, and then they'd rush to her aid. She waited and waited, but it seemed that the minutes dragged on to feel like hours. She began to feel lightheaded.

"Natsu," she breathed out quietly as her vision began to blur drastically. She vaguely saw the outline of a girl with long blonde hair. Who was that?

"Interesting indeed," the girl mused to herself. Lucy felt the last bit of her life drift away, and slowly her eyes drifted shut. It was at that moment that Lucy Heartfilia of Fairy Tail died.

END NOTE: Short, I know. But, was it good? Should I continue? Those of you who HAVE read Princess Resurrection probably want me to continue, since you're probably already guessing what's going to happen. But let me know what you thought. No flaming reviews please. By the way, I haven't read too far into Princess Resurrection, so bear with me! Bye for now!
