It's been six years since a Fairy Tail guild member went missing. When the search parties return, they have found nothing, So the girl is pronounced dead. What happens when this girl literally falls into the guild beaten and scarred? What was she doing all those years, and what do these new enemies want with the new couples of Fairy Tail? They must find were their heart's lay, or else the world as they know it shall crumble apart. Will their bonds as a family, friends, and lovers be enough? Why are sacriphices needed anyway? Why is this new girl so important? Is it because of a dark past that no one knows of but one? Mainly Gray x OFC and Lucy x Natsu. Also other semi minor pairings include Jellal x Erza, Gajeel x Levy, Leon x Juvia, Mirajane x Freed, Loke x Aries, Happy x Carla, Alzack x Bisca, Romeo x Wendy, and Laxus x Cana. COUPLES MAY CHANGE, BE ADDED, OR TAKEN AWAY!

A/N-You may be wondering a few things-

1) Why the hell are there so many pairs?

Answer- It's important for the story line

2)Why certain couples and why not some couples such as Evergreen x Elfman

Answer-Why the couples I chose? Like Nalu instead of Gralu. It fit the story better or I just like that couple. Why not Evergreen x Elfman? I dislike Evergreen. But if you guys want, I'll put Elfman with someone who you can find or an OFC.

I will try to put as many couples in the spotlight as possible, although some I might skin over because they aren't so important. Thanks!

OK, this is my first Fairy Tail fanfiction. I'm trying to make chapters a little longer and a little more detailed. I'd appreciate if you tell me how I do. The rating might go up, it depends on how the story goes. As for now there is a little language here and there. Please read and enjoy!

Prologue

())~~%~~ O Unknown O ~~%~~(()

I had to keep running, I couldn't let them catch me, not again. Damn it, if only my magical power hadn't been kept so low all these years! I ran as fast as I could through the forest. My legs where sore and my lungs hurt from my constant running. I came out of the forest and saw the familiar land of were I used to live six years ago. But I knew I wasn't safe until I got back to my true home. I ran through the town trying to dodge people of Magnolia. I could see it in the distance, just a little longer body, then we'll be home free. Right as I got to the front door, my legs gave out. I fell against the doors which some how made them open. I began to lose conciousness, but before I fell into the pit of darkness, I saw a pink haired guy I knew very well and heard him yell

"Hey Grandpa! She needs treatment stat!" That was the last thing I heard before the darkness took me. But I didn't care. I knew I was safe.

())~~%~~ O Mirajane O ~~%~~(()

I rushed over to were Natsu was leaning over the girl. "Natsu, get her to the infirmary! I'll see what I can do." I gathered the supplies I needed and head there to. This girl looked so familiar. I wonder why? Natsu was standing there waiting for me but I pushed him out. "We need privacy." I walked over to the unconscious girl. She was quite beautiful, even in her state. As I worked on healing her, I looked her over. Her hair was a beautiful black, exactly like Gray's. She was skinny like she had not had a proper meal in years yet her breasts could easily overtake Lucy's. Her body was covered in many cuts and bruises. Her tattered rags of what I could guess were her cloths showed much skin and the existence of her injuries. I could tell the cuts were reopened many times before they even scabbed. To be in this condition and god knows travel how far, she had a strong will. She must have been in pure torture. Who could have done this! she only looked about 17, maybe 18 but theses wounds were years old. Suddenly I felt chills run through my body as I came to a realization. I rolled her over and moved some of the rags away from her lower back. There was much damage done to the skin, nothing I couldn't handle, but I could still see the mark as clear as day. It was her.

())~~%~~ O Lucy O ~~%~~(()

After a while Mirajane finally came out. She looked like she had just seen a ghost, little did I know she kind of did. She went straight to the master and whispered in his ear. I saw his eye widen. then he yelled

"It can't be! How!" That had gotten everyone's attention. The master turned towards everyone. "No one but Mirajane and I are allowed in the infirmary until further notice." Then he followed said girl back towards the room she came from. I turned towards Natsu, He looked a little shaken up.

"Natsu, do you have any idea whats going on?" I asked. He was looking at were Mirajane and the master had gone. He was visibly shaking.

"No...it can't be..." he said to himself. He must have been able to hear what Mirajane said. Suddenly he got up and walked to the infirmary. This was all to weird.

())~~%~~ O Natsu O ~~%~~(()

~~A Few Weeks Latter~~

I was laying down on Lucy's bed, when said female charged into the room.

"Master wishes to see you, he said it's important." I gave a nod and got up heading towards the door, but she grabbed my wrist.

"What's wrong with you? You've been so quiet and distant. You've been eating less than ever. I'm worried Natsu, what's wrong?" She asked quietly.

"You'll find out soon enough..." I pulled my wrist away from her hand and walked away towards the guild. I hope this was something good. When I got to the guild everyone who was there around seven years ago was there, except Gray. She must have woken up then. The master gave a nod, Mirajane went to the back and when she came back, she was carrying our little guest. I looked into her eyes, and when I saw those shocking electric blue orbs, I knew it was her, but I had to make sure, I looked at her lower back, any normal person would have though I was looking at her ass, but I wasn't. It was there, the Fairy Tail guild mark. And it was the same color as Gray's.

Kidding!

I could tell she was still tired from her...journey. But still, I jumped forward and glomped her.

"Natsu..." I heard her whisper. I felt a slight dampness on my chest when I looked down I saw her crying. "Thank you...so much..."

"You know you have some explaining to do, right?" I asked quietly "We all thought you were dead...what happened?" I helped her stand up and we all walked to the mass of tables that were gathered. Right as she was about to start talking, Lucy barged in.

"Will someone please tell me what the hell is going on here!" she yelled. The master stood up from his spot at the center of our circle.

"Lucy, may I introduce one of our old guild members, Amethyst Clara Fulgur. Amethyst, this is Lucy Heartfilia. One of our newest members."

"Wait a second...I've heard that name before. She's supposed to be dead!" Lucy said

"I was about to tell them my story, why don't you sit down as well." Amethyst said quietly. When Lucy found an empty seat, she continued. "As you know, about six years ago I went missing on an S-class mission without a trace. Everyone assumed that I was dead, but you were dead wrong. When I first came here, I was running away from someone. You already know this, but they found me and kidnapped me. I was taken away and kept barely alive, while they tried to find more sacrifices that fit the description...they almost did. They cast a daily spell on my that drained my magical energy leaving hardly any. but I figured out how to hide parts of it. I began to store up energy and then when I had enough, I escaped. I broke as much as I could, but it wasn't enough to stop them permanently. They will come after me again, I know it. That's why I came back here, because I knew that you guys would be able to help... I'm sorry I'm such a burden to you guys, I heard about what happened to Gray and all of you guys. I'm so sorry for causing so much pain..." I saw new tears begin to form. I walked over and pulled her into my arms.

"You were never a burden to anyone, and you aren't now." I said. Everyone cheered in agreement. "Now that that's all cleaned up, I order you to stay in bed resting until you are fully healed, and no more 'but's'." I said pushing her back to the infirmary.

"Where's Gray, Natsu." She asked quietly. I looked away.

"He's on a long-term solo mission, but he should be back soon. You have plenty of time to get healed up for him. I'm sure he'll be glad to see you." I whispered.

"What if he comes back before I'm healed?'

"Then I'll make sure he doesn't come in here. Simple as that."

"Natsu, could you do me a favor?" she asked again

"Sure, what is it?"

"I know the old man is going to plan a 'welcome home' party. I want that to be when Gray finds out. Do you think that Lucy friend of your's could help me out to get ready?" she asked blushing

"I'm sure she'd love to. I'll come back tomorrow, okay? I tell her to come when ever she feels like it."

"Okay, see you later. And tell Happy I say Hi!"

"I will." Then I walked out the door.

~~Another Few Weeks Latter~~

"Come on Gray, don't be so sad. We said we'd take care of each other no matter what, so that's what I'm doing. I'm going to make sure you're rolling on the ground laughing by the time I'm done." she said smiling

I looked up at her "Okay...fine. But just because you're already an S-class wizard doesn't mean you can do everything...okay? so be careful on your missions." I said

"I never go on missions alone, you know that. Now come on, you want to see me toy with Natsu, right?" She said forcing a fake yawn.

"Yeah." I held out my hand and she took it. As we walked back towards the guild she stopped. "What's wrong?" I asked

"Gray, no matter what happens, will you promise to always be by my side...forever?" she asked. I like the sound of that.

"Of course, although I would do it with or with out the promise." She turned around and through her arms around my neck. Then she kissed my cheek. A blush quickly cover my face.

"Hey Gray?"

"Yeah?" I asked

"Your cloths." she said laughing. I looked down and saw that I was only in my underwear. When I looked around for my cloths, I found them in her hand. Right as I was about to grab them she pulled away.

She stuck her tongue out. "You have to catch me first." I went to tackle her but she dodged again. "Missed me , missed me, now you have to kiss me!" She chanted. She took off to the guild with me hot on her heels.

"Come back with my cloths!" I yelled. then suddenly the scene changed. I was at the guild, and I knew what was about to happen.

"Grey...I'm sorry son. We can't find any trace of her. It has been decided that that she died in the line of duty..." The master said.

"No it can't be true! She's to strong for there to not have a single trace left! You're lying! Where is she!" I yelled with tears streaming down my face.

I woke up with a start. These dreams had been happening a lot recently. I clenched my fist and hit it against the wall, feeling new tears coming. "Amethyst...I'm so sorry that I couldn't do it. I made a promise that we would always stay together no matter what...and I broke that promise...I'm so sorry..." When I was able to calm myself down I went and took a shower. I was finally going back home, but for some reason this time felt different. There was one reason I hated solo missions, it meant that I had to pace a place all by myself, as I paced said place, the memory came back.

Amethyst was being thrown around like a twig. When she couldn't move, the beast began to use electric magic on her over and over. She was screaming in pain.

"Amethyst!" I yelled getting ready to fight

"Stay back!" she yelled getting hit by another shock. The monster was holding her in place with his foot.

"But you'll die!"

"No I won't! We made a promise! You've protected me all this time, but now it's my turn to protect you. You're already badly injured from protecting me!" she got hit by another shock. Then she began to fight back.

I shook my head, clearing away the memory. That was the first day I saw her power. And shortly after that she became an S-class wizard at the age of 12. I had joined the guild at age 10, I found her about a year later, that's when she joined. I had matter her one or twice before, when I was being taught by Ur. But I can't think about that right now, I needed to tell the master I was back. The guild was the same as ever on the outside, but when I walked inside everyone was dead silent.

"Hi?" I asked

"Oh, Gray. You're back. Welcome home!" Mirajane said from the bar.

"Where's the old man?" I asked

"He's helping and injured person right now. No ones allowed in there." She said

"Okay, I'll just wait here than." I said sitting down at the counter. After a minute of complete awkward silence, the master came out.

"Okay everyone. Our little guest is just fine now. They'll be staying with Lucy for a while, so no one is allowed to but the two of them until tomorrow night. Is that understood?" He asked

"What's tomorrow?" I asked

"A welcome home party. Now everyone, continue on."

~~The Next Day~~

It was finally the day. Lucy let me sleep in while she got everything set up. Erza was supposed to come and help since she could just re-equip into anything. When I woke up, Lucy fed me a nice breakfast. Ever since I got back, I had been looking...less dead. After the breakfast she led me to a bath and told me to use a whole bunch of products in a certain order. I'm amazed that I was able to remember everything. I got out of the tub when I was done. She gave me a robe and tied a blind fold around my head.

"What's this for?" I asked

"We don't want you to see you self until we're done. Do you trust us?" Erza said. I guess she just got here.

"What about you guys?"

"You're going to stay blind folded until we say so, which will be a while. Now let's get started!" Lucy said. I can't believe they were starting to get me ready so early in the day. I felt them put me in a dress and do all kinds of things. Then I heard them working on themselves.

"Okay, we're taking the blind fold off, but keep your eyes closed."

"Fine..." I grumbled. I felt them putting the make up on my face.

"Okay, done." They said in union. I opened my eyes and found myself in front of a full body mirror. I almost didn't recognize myself. Parts of my long black hair was pulled back into a clip and it split into to separate spirals on each side. The rest of my hair was curled and had little braids her and there. My hair still went to almost halfway down my back. The black silken dress went down to my ankles were black strapped high heels were on my feet. The dress was strapless and showed a little more cleavage than I was used to. And there was a hole on my lower back so people could see my Fairy Tail tattoo. I didn't wear any jewelry tonight besides a locket the Gray gave me when we were kids and to amethyst studs for my earrings. I had a silvery dark blue eye shadow on and black eyeliner and mascara. My lips wear a dark crimson.

I turned around to look at Erza and Lucy. We were in pretty much the exact same thing but different colors. Erza's color scheme was white and electric blue, while Lucy's was white and salamander pink. Erza's eye shadow was electric blue, while Lucy's was pink. Lucy had a bracelet on her wrist and Erza Had her normal earring in. Pretty much the only difference besides our basic looks. I walked over and gave both of them a hug.

"You guys are the best, thanks so much." I whispered trying not to cry. I pulled back. "I guess it's time to go?"

"Yup!" we each had a cape with a hood. Mine was black, Erza's blue, Lucy's pink. We put our cloaks on and pulled the hoods up. I was to keep mine on until I gave me special presentation. The cloaks hid us perfectly. We linked arms. Me in the middle, Erza on the right, and Lucy on the left. I was glad for the hood when we passed Gray.

"Hey Lucy, Erza!" he called running over. "The master was looking for you two." Then he saw me. "Who's she?"

"No one of importance, we better hurry. see you later." Erza said. We rushed to the guild. They led me to the back where the stage was. It was time for my grand entrance. I heard the master making a speech and then I heard where I was supposed to come in. I stepped out onto the stage. The room was silent, and then everyone was clapping and cheering. The master continued the speech but I wasn't paying attention, I was looking for Gray. The party went on but I wasn't able to get away from all the people. Lucy helped me escape. I went to the one place that I knew I could find him, my grave.

I rushed through the guild until I found it, and sure enough, there he was.

"Isn't it rude not to meet the guest of honor?" I asked trying to sound cross

"I lost interest in parties a long time ago." he mumbled

"When she died?" that was weird, talking about myself like that

He turned around "How did y-" he stopped mid sentence when he saw me. His eyes widened.

"Because you though I died, you lost your fun side. I apologize." I said looking down

"But how?" he asked, still in shock.

"I never died, I was kidnapped. By the same people chasing me when we were little."

"How did you escape?" he asked again

"Can we just leave it alone for now. Let it just be us, alone. With no one else around." I whispered. We heard a song playing in the background.

I could tell he was a little uncomfortable, but hey. Who wouldn't be if you thought someone you were close to had died, but then you find out was held hostage for a few years. More like five. He held out his hand. "Care to dance?" he asked, bowing.

I smiled "Yes." he took me hand and we danced around for what seems like forever, it was amazing. When the song ended, he pulled me into a tight hug.

"I missed you." he whispered. Then he pressed his lips to mine.

So? Did I over do it? Please like, follow, and comment. I appreciate a little criticism but not to the point of you telling me everything I did wrong. Thanks for checking out this story and I hope you'll stick with me for the rest of it. Bye! Crystal...OUT! ;D
