Shattered Chapter 6

"Ouch! Blon-Luce! What'd you do that for?!" Fake crying, Sting held his nose, rubbing it softly. Lucy's punch, when it needed to be, was almost as hard as her famous 'Lucy Kick!' that made even the strongest members in Fairy Tail cringe in fear.

"Oh I don't know, maybe because when I woke up, it looked like some crazy ass psychopath was here to kill me! What the hell would you do if you woke up and someone was in your bloody, arrogant face?!" Lucy was up by then, looking around for one of her 'favourite' books.

"I'm not arrogant! And I actually wouldn't mind if it was two hot girls in my fac-wait! How come you didn't hit Rogue?!" Sure enough, the quiet dragon slayer was sitting off to the side, quite happy that he was unharmed-not that he'd actually show it.

"Well maybe because he wasn't poking my face with a stick! Besides, Rogue is a nice, quiet gentleman, whereas you are a big buffoon that likes waking people up with a stick-a stick! He was also at least a meter away from my face, and calls my Luce or Lucy-unlike you, Sting, who was right up in my face this morning!" Rogue was holding back a slight smile now, watching his two friends bicker.

"Hey!" Sting cried out as he finally realised what the girl was looking for. "I call you Luce! I-I'm not a buffoon! I, um, I didn't just poke you with a stick! I chucked gravel at you too! So don't chuck that magic book at me!" Rogue facepalmed-not even bothering to hide it-when he realised that one of his best friends might not make it out alive because he was provoking Lucy. Lucy's punishment always consisted of a special kind of training-at least, that's what she called it. Her 'training' was chucking 2000 page hard cover books at people-most of the time Sting- and seeing how many they could dodge. Sting's highest was a zero, for Lucy's aim, when annoyed, was better than anything.

"Tch, gravel? Really, Sting? You're saying this when you're trying to save yourself? And you only call me Luce because you don't want to be punished, but I guess it's too late for that now..." Sting paled as he finally realised what he said. "Looks like time for training I see!" Lucy had found her extensive collection of magic books, and was now tapping the lightest of the 36 in her hands, looking towards Sting murderously. "Let's see if we can improve your average this time!"

Needless to say, Sting's average didn't improve, and he found himself with 36 bumps on his body, 37 when he was 'Lucy Kicked' out of the younger blonde's house.

"How come you weren't hurt?!" Sting growled as he watched his partner emerge from-what he like to call-the demon's house.

"I wasn't the one that thought chucking and poking her with objects would wake her up." Sting narrowed his eyes as he saw the slightly smug smile on his partner's usually impassive face. "Sting, do you really want to start a fight with me when you're in that condition, and Frosch and Lector are with Mavis?"

Sting stopped, and suddenly looked at his partner with wide eyes before running off as fast as his injured body would let him. "Lector, buddy, I'm coming to save you!"

"Ugh, some best friend he is..." Lucy grumbled as she finished her daily routine, picked up her keys, and headed towards the guild.

The blonde, however, soon regretted her decision as she was tackled the second she walked into the guild. "LUCY! Come, come! We wanna show you something!" Despite her tremendous strength, the young Goddess just couldn't find it in herself to say no to the pleas of her to best girl friends.

"Ugh, fine," She grumbled, not liking how she was being hit with a flying chair every third step that she took. "But if I find out that this is a prank, I'll tell Mira that Bickslow and Elfman proposed to you two, I'm planning the wedding, and I need some assistance, got that?" The two girls blushed furiously before realising the threat and stopping completely.

"L-Lucy-nee/L-Lucy...You wouldn't do that, would you?" They stuttered, but the moment they looked into her eyes, they knew that she would.

"Okay, okay! I give up!" Lisanna pouted as the brunette threw her hands up in defeat. "It's not a trap, okay! Don't get the She-Demon involved!"

Suddenly, the guild's brawl stopped, and a massive dark aura appeared behind Evergreen. "What was that, Ever?" The oh so sweet Mira asked innocently, despite her aura growing more demonic by the second. "Who is this 'She-Demon'?"

Instantly, Evergreen froze. "I, er, um...ehehe, I, um-"

"Nee-chan, aren't you meant to be helping with Lucy's surprise?" The brunette gave a sigh of relief as the demon matchmaker ran away, eyes widened.

"Thanks, Lis," She whispered, still breathing heavily from her encounter with Mira. "I owe you one."

"Sure do!" The two exchanged smiles, until...

"Have you all forgotten about me? Jeez, you guys are worse than Sting! I'll follow Mira, instead!" Before they could comprehend what was happening, the impatient blonde had disappeared, her two friends running after her.

"Lucy-nee/Lucy don't! It's not ready ye-watch out! Lucy-nee/Lucy, are you alrig-KYYAAAAA!" The two girls were joined by Mira in their squeal of happiness, and they all had their cameras out, clicking madly. The scene in front of them was too cute!

Lucy had run straight into the hallway, ignoring her friends' pleas to stop, and ran smack-bang into someone! It seemed that Lady Luck wasn't on her side today, for she had run into Freed. And. Landed. Right. On. Top. Of. Him.

That wasn't what made the three girls scream, however. It was the fact that Lucy was straddling Freed, while their lips were touching ever so slightly.

"Lucy!" The girl jumped off of Freed instantly, and turned to one of her former best friends. "Blonde haired blue eyed babies! Green haired brown eyed babies!" She fell to the ground once again, this time in exasperation, and came face to face with Freed one more time.

"My, my, Lucy, I didn't know that you wanted me that badly," In all truth, the Rune mage knew it was an accident-a happy accident for him, anyways-but just couldn't resist the perfect opportunity to tease her. "Mira over there seems to be fantasizing something...Would you like to make it a reality?" The blonde had turned bright red, and the Rune mage let out a small chuckle as the girls squealed happily.

"Ooh, Lucy~!" Evergreen had brought out her fan, and was fanning herself very dramatically. "It seems to be getting hot in here~!"

"Reality! My dreams will become a reality!" The long white haired girl punched her fist in the air, and began marching around. "Reality!"

"Lucy-nee, have fun~!" Lisanna was holding back her giggles with one of her hands, now.

"Remember to use protection, 'kay?" And she burst out laughing, not being able to hold herself together after Evergreen's joke.

"NOOOOOOOOOOO!"

I am sincerely sorry for my lame attempt at humor. Oh, and FairyFreak38? LucyXHeartifiliaXFan? My mum says that I can keep my laptop because I won the Dux Trophy-meaning I'm the smartest person in Grade 7! Yay! Truthfully I thought I wouldn't win because I suck at science and technology, when Josh was really good, but the rest of Grade 7 thought differently. They said they knew I was going to win, and I'm happy that I did! I get my laptop! I don't have to write my stories on my iPod anymore!
