Natsu is from Earthland, a place full of mages and magic. Lucy is from simple earth, a schoolgirl who wants more action in her life. Wish granted. Natsu is transported to Earth, crashing into Lucy’s life-literally. She helps him find a way back, only to start developing feelings for the dense dragon slayer.

01
He who ruined my life



I’m a normal girl at a normal school who does normal things.

I didn’t want this to happen.

I didn’t have time for this to happen.

Maybe I’m getting a little ahead of myself, sorry. Let’s go back a few paces.

x.i.i.x

“That will be all.” The teacher chimed in monotone. I wiped my eyes of sleep and picked my stuff up, lazily walking to my locker. So tired...so tired...so―

Ow.

Maybe I should walk with my eyes open. I rubbed my forehead and glared at my locker accusingly, the red mark sure to be seen the next morning. I sighed, pulling my knapsack out of my stupid locker and slamming it closed. Why was I so tired?

Other girls and guys milled past me, chatting excitedly to their friends and what not. My ‘friends’ (actually that’s a singular) are down to a certain group. Mainly me and Levy. But I don’t really mind, I don’t really like talking to other people my age. I get shy easily.

“C’mon!” I heard one of the girls urge her friend, squealing and heading towards the door. I resisted the urge to roll my eyes, walking out simply. People pushed past me and bumped shoulders with me while I walked like a zombie out of school.

I mean, school isn’t that bad...sometimes. Okay that was a lie, it’s annoying. I don’t get bullied or anything since I usually steer clear of the bratty preps and I’m not even a straight A student, I only get like three A’s at most. If I’m lucky.

Nope, just an average A, B student who no matter how hard she tries just can’t get past Art. Simple.

I was a nobody.

Invisible.

And absolutely okay with it.

I trudged along, humming softly to myself-oh, did I forget to mention I didn’t have a phone either? Yeah, seventeen and no cell phone. Don’t judge. It’s not like anyone would text me anyways.

I smiled to myself at the thought of watching funny cat videos at home, walking along on autopilot. I looked left and right before walking along the white line on the street, cars revving for me to hurry along, my canvas lunch box bouncing off my legs. I crossed the street when they take off like they’re drag racing. I blinked before shrugging, carrying on with my business.

I took three steps forward when something suddenly rushed on top of me, making me smack right into the ground. I couldn’t even groan in pain, trying to wiggle out from under the freight train.

“Ow...” The elephant moaned. I felt a scream bubble into my throat as they lifted themselves off of me, my head throbbing in pain. I turned myself up right, glaring straight at the idiot who decided to hit me.

“What the heck!” I yelled, rubbing my head with my scraped palm. I glared at the man before realizing what he looked like, my eyes widening.

He had a coat-shirt-vest thingy on with only one sleeve, aladdin looking pants and pink hair! Who was this guy?

“Where am I? What year is it?” The man asked me seriously, looking around like a curious child. His black eyes scanned the area like a wild animals, and I felt slightly nervous. I kinda yelled at this guy, and for all I know he could be a murderer.  Great Lucy you just had to yell at him, goodbye life. Goodbye cruel world. If it makes anything better, I hated you all this time.

I felt something on my shoulder before the world started shaking back and forth, leaving me beyond dizzy.  

“Where. Am. I. What. Year. Is. It. Tell. Me.” I heard a voice through the mini earthquake, my brain getting knocked around by how harsh the guy was shaking me.

“Le-ah-me-goo!” I managed, my stomach starting to feel upset. Finally realizing that he was being unnecessarily cruel, he released my shoulders. He took a step back, his eyes filling to the brim with distraught. His tan face paled pastly, and I rose an eyebrow in concern.

“Are you....okay? You know, besides the whole....! FALLING FROM THE SKY THING!” I suddenly realized that what the heck this guy just FELL FROM THE SKY!! WHAT IS GOING ON?!?

I took a few steps away myself, eyes wide in complete confusion and slight fear. Calm down Lucy, maybe he fell from a window? Maybe he’s a window cleaner guy and he just fell from one of those big platform thingies?!?

“This cannot be happening!” He suddenly screeched, well more like roared. I covered my ears a second too late, wincing from  the volume.

“You’re telling me!” I hollered in response, feeling irritated by his sudden appearance, and also my kneecap was stinging and probably bleeding. I am way too sensitive for this.

“Why?! Why now of all times!!!” He continued cursing out the world, completely ignoring my presence. Not like I was used to it or anything.

He pulled at his pink locks, and for a second I was sure he was about to rip a chunk out of his head. I wonder if it’d grow back pink or maybe brown...? Did he dye it?

Now is not the time for being sidetracked Lucy, focus!

“No! No no NOOO!” He cried out, collapsing to his knees. I stared in bewilderment as he punched harshly at the ground before tiring out and full out falling down into a pathetic heap, a quiet moaning sound escaping his lips.

I arched an eyebrow, my concern level peaking. He twitched slightly, showing that he was still...breathing. Though not much, more like a slight pant.

“Um...are you okay?” I managed to speak up.

Bad choice.

His eyes reopened, his black eyes like ice, unlike the time before. They slide over towards me, cutting right through me. His whole face hardened and an aura of ‘do not disturb’ hung around him, his face slowly melting into a scowl.

“What.” He grounded out, murky eyes piercing. I leaned forward to look down at his body, soaking in his appearance once more.

“Um...are you...okay?” I asked weakly once more, knowing he wasn’t. He opened his mouth and I flinched at his look alone, knowing he’d start screaming at me. Something flickered in his eyes and he closed his mouth once more, sitting himself up. He hung his head and his hands fell to his lap, his mouth turning into a guilty frown.

...

...

...

...

“...gomenasai.”

I blinked, the only thing I was willing to do. I cocked my head at the sudden change in mood and atmosphere, taking another step forward.

This character really intrigued me.

“I-It’s okay....really. I’m just....” I took a deep breath before continuing, knowing  to calm myself before I became tongue twisted.

“I’m Lucy Heartfilia, what’s your name?” I asked softly, knowing to take it slowly with this guy. He seemed a little...psychotic.

“N...Natsu Dragneel,” He managed to mumbled. I smiled softly, squatting down to his level.

“Well Natsu, can you tell me what you’re doing here?” I asked, searching my brain for the  ‘stranger danger’ questionnaire.  His face darkened and I swallowed my fear, relief filling me when it disappeared.

“I was hoping you would tell me that.” He replied, shrugging his shoulder. He lifted his hand up, his index finger the only one sticking up.

“How could I―”

And suddenly, his hand caught on fire.




{Or am I just hung over you?;
