Timeskip 1 year Fairy Tail's POV

"Have you heard, Erza?"

"What is it, Gray?"

"Apparently, there's someone traveling the country beating up bandits and dark guilds. They're calling her the 'Dragon Constellation.' I guess she's about our age, maybe even younger!"

"I want to fight her!"

"It's probably just a rumor. Though it would be nice if this girl was real. I would like to meet her."

Lucinda's POV

'Magnolia... I'm here.' I took a deep breath and entered the bustling city. Following a familiar road, I found myself in front of a pink apartment building. I knocked on the door and patiently waited for someone to answer. Minutes later, the door opened. "Can I help you?" The familiar land lady asked.

I nodded. "I would like to rent an apartment, ma'am." The landlady examined me skeptically.

"The rent is 70,000 jewls. You have that much?" I took out a money bag with exactly 70,000 jewls.

"Yes ma'am. It's all right here." The Landlady took the bag and gave me a key.

"You can find it yourself. Don't make a big ruckus, don't lose your key and," the landlady turned around to head back inside, "Don't hesitate to ask me for something. Now shoo."

I woke up in my bed feeling refreshed and energized. With a yawn, I mentally asked Horologium for the time. '4:06 AM.'

Not feeling the least bit tired, I jumped out of bed and hopped into the shower. There, I quickly scrubbed myself down with an apple cinnamon body scrub. In my hair, I massaged a vanilla cinnamon shampoo and conditioner in. About twenty minutes later, I turned off the shower and started to get ready for the most likely eventful day.

Not wasting anytime, I pulled on a loose pair of tan pants, tying the bottoms with thin bandages. Then I threw on a white shirt that didn't contrast against my black umbrayed white hair. Finally, I threw on my scarf, wrapped my belt around my waist with my keys attached and tied up my hair with my white ribbon.

As I tugged my Roman sandles on, I thought about what I wanted to do. 'I'm about four years younger than my team, previously I was the same age if not a year younger. That shouldn't cause too much of a problem, but they might be concerned for my safety.' I started to walk out the door.

'I'll have to show them I'm not weak!'

I stopped in the shadow of Fairy Tail's building. The noise from inside was overwhelming for my sensitive ears but I simply grinned through it and slowly pushed open the guild's door. No one seemed to notice me, so I quietly walked up to the bar towards a familiar old man.

"Hi!" Makarov looks surprised.

"Hello dear, may I ask who you are?" I hummed happily.

"Hehe, I'm Lucinda Penteal! I was wondering if I could join this guild!" Makarov nodded his head.

"Where are your parents?" I clentched my hands into fists, barely noticing that the guild had gone quiet.

"That's why I want to join. A year ago, Ma disappeared. I've been looking for her ever since, but I figured it might be easier if I joined a guild." Looks of pity were thrown across the guild.

"Lucinda dear, you can join this guild. But may I ask what your mother looks like?" I took a deep breath.

"Um, Ma's name is Makina. She doesn't have any hair... Her eyes are grey! Oh, and her skin is a light purple!"

"Light purple?!" I tapped my chin.

"Didn't I tell you? Ma is a dragon! She taught me magic and took care of me." I said fondly.

A sharp gasp shook me from my thoughts. A salmon haired boy was starring at me in shock. "Your parent is a dragon too?!" I faked my surprise and ran up to him.

"Ah! You were adopted by a dragon too?! Did your Dragon teach you dragon slaying magic?!" The boy nodded excitedly.

"Your Dragon disappeared a year ago, right?" I nodded

"July 7th, X777." The boy gasped.

"What? So did Igneel!" Makarov interrupted our slowly depressing conversation.

"Why don't we get you your mark? What color would you like it?"

I thought hard before answering. "Pink. On my...hmm..right shoulder!" Makarov took out the stamp and happily stamped my arm.

"Thank you Mister!" I said greatfully.

"Call me gramps." He said fondly. I nodded before running back to the salmon haired boy.

"Look! Look!" I said excitedly.

He looked just as happy. "Yeah I know! My name is Natsu Dragneel!" I grinned.

"Hi! I'm Lucinda Penteal. Can I call you Nii-chan?" Natsu happily nodded.

"Oi flame brain!" Natsu seemed to get irritated.

"What did you call me Ice Princess?!" I laughed as Natsu and the 'unknown' boy insulted each other for a minute.

"Natsu, Gray. Are you two fighting? In front of our new member?" Natsu and Gray froze, then hugged each other.

"N-no ma'am!" I stopped laughing and looked up at the new addition.

Scarlet red hair was pulled into a simple braid. Erza Scarlet was staring down at me with kindness in her eyes. "Hello. I'm Erza Scarlet. Welcome to Fairy Tail." I gave her a close eyed smile.

"Hi! I'm Lucinda Penteal! Thank you, Erza-neechan!" Erza turned a bright pink before scooping me up into her arms.

"Ah! I have a little sister now! Lucinda, have you had strawberry cake before?" Erza put me down and waited for my answer, ignoring the shocked expressions across the guild.

I thought hard. "Um... What's strawberry cake?" I asked once I realised I hadn't had the desert in this life.

Erza dragged me to the bar where a plate of cake sat inoccently. Without hesitation, Erza shoved it into my hands. "Eat and be amazed."

Everyone in the guild gasped, as Erza *never* gives away her precious cake. With a thank you, I took a bite.

An explosion of strawberry and cream filled my mouth. When I looked down, the cake was gone and everyone was looking at me in surprise.

"Where did the cake go? Did someone eat it? I really liked it. Thank you Erza-neechan! It was really yummy! Can I get some more?" I asked, going through a flurry of emotions.

"Natsu-niichan! Go on a job with me! Pleaseeee?!!" I begged a week later.

Natsu looked hesitant. "I don't know..."

I looked towards Lisanna. "Lis-neechan, convince Natsu-niichan!" I begged.

Lisanna had a mischievous expression as she shook her head in denial.

I huffed before an idea sprang into my head. I jumped up and pointed at Natsu. "How about this. If I beat you in a fight, then you have to go on a job with me! If not, you don't have to. It'll be an all out magic fight!" I challenged, knowing that Natsu wouldn't be able to refuse.

Natsu got up with a grin. "I'm all fired up!"

I gave him a grin as well. "Get ready for an otherworldly experience!"

Natsu and I were ushered outside, bets were placed, the majority being on Natsu.

Makarov was chosen as the referee. "Okay, I want a clean fight. If I decide that it's gone too far, I will stop the fight. Are you ready?!" Natsu and I started to gather our magic.

Makarov allowed us to gather our magic. After a minute, Natsu had gathered all of his, but I kept on going. Nearly three minutes later, I stopped at only a small fraction of my power. I ignored all the gaping people and focused on Natsu.

"Start!"

"FIRE DRAGON ROOAAARRR!!!" Flames engulfed me. I could hear people shouting in worry, but ignored them. Instead, I started to eat the flames.

In between gulps, I talked. "I have to say... Nii-chan.... These flames are spicy!!!
