I was a fool to believe that I could last a day without being near you.

She's my Momma 06

"Master! Lucy's on an S-class mission all by herself!"Mira exclaimed now worrying for the blonde haired maiden.

"What?! Is she out of her mind?!" the Master burst into a panic, totally bewildered by the sudden action of his child.

"Unfortunately this mission was blended with the ordinary missions, Master. She took it out not even knowing it was one" she reasoned, trying to calm the master down.

What they both didn't know was that the guild members can hear them loud and clear, a look of horror was plastered on their face. How could Lucy and Mira not know or noticed? Upon hearing the alarmed statement Levy, Wendy, and surprisingly Gajeel stormed at the master's office.

"Why is she even alone?! Where are her teammates?! Why is Natsu not even with her?!" the master roared, his mind now totally in tatters a lot of question swarmed his head, and as if this situation was not enough, another whole situation made him want to silently and slowly crawl to his grave.

"Natsu, Happy and Lisanna are celebrating their family day, Erza and Gray are out on a mission themselves. And master, this mission is a whole lot horrible than we thought it already is" Mira stated, looking more horrified by the minute.

"What?! What is this mission all about Mira?" the master groaned and was now having a headache.

"The mission is located at an island, Star Island; it could take about 2 days and half to get there. The island has been terrorized by one of Zeref's demons, Detriot" their faces paled at the demon's name, the said monster could easily wipe out a whole island if it wanted to.

"You said it could take 2 and a half days to get to the island, right?" nodding, their master than looked at the intruders waiting for him to say something.

"Gajeel, Levy, and Mira, pack up and retrieve your sister, bring her back immediately. And do not, I repeat do not let anyone else know of this situation, especially team Natsu" Master Macarov commanded, Mira, Gajeel and Levy nodded and they all soon left, dashing out the guild to pack.

As his children left his office one question still remained on the old man's mind though, what was this request doing at the non S-class board? His mind ached, Macarov then heaves a sigh; he just hoped they made it in time.

"Please be safe dear child" Macarov muttered looking out his office.

Meanwhile on Lucy's side she was already on a boat sailing towards the island, leaving on the evening made her traveling worthwhile. The said islands' name perked her interest to an extreme level, Star Island, as a celestial mage and a lover for stars and constellation she cannot help but want to get there faster.

She read the request paper once, twice or even thrice, it only said to defeat a demon, nothing more nothing less. So as of now she was just sitting on a fast boat travelling towards the island, it has been a day and half since she traveled from home, so by now their family day was over.

"I hope Natsu and Happy ain't too upset of my departure" she murmured.

"Miss we're approaching the Island fast, are you sure you could handle the job on your own?" the sailor asked looking skeptical for a moment, Lucy glance at the man who agreed on sailing with her and smiled.

"Of course Sir, don't worry I'll be fine" she assured the worried sailor.

What she doesn't know though was that it's more than and not less, after 30 minutes of sitting they finally arrived at the island. Lucy paid the sailor man and bid her farewell after she thanked him, Lucy then proceeded to where the mission is from; the mayors'.

Asking people where she could locate their mayor's house, she finally found it. The house is of the average height and is able to fit 5 people she guessed, knocking at the door a couple of seconds later it opened.

"Yes? How may I help you?" asked a woman with light brown hair, brown eyes and is near on her thirties.

"Hi, I'm Lucy. I'm a member of Fairy Tail who accepted the request" Lucy introduces herself showing her Fairy Tail insignia, the woman's eyes widen and pulled her in.

"Pardon my odd behavior and please follow me" the woman said and lead Lucy in.

"Make yourself comfortable while I go get my husband" she stated as she quickly went away.

As the woman was out of sight, Lucy made herself comfortable as she sat down at one of the couches. Looking around the room she cannot help but smile, this house was quite comfortable much to her pleas. Seconds later a shimmering light of gold appear, and out comes one of her spirits.

"Loki?" Lucy called, quite shocked of her friends sudden appearance.

"Hello Princess, did you miss me?" he teases and took Lucy's hand on his own before kissing the top of her hand, making Lucy sweat drop for a second and pulled her hand away.

"Did I?" she nervously smiles, making her lion pout and then stood tall.

"Well I'm quite surprised that your team isn't with you" Loki adjusted his glasses and plop down beside Lucy.

"Well, their busy with their own life, and I can't always depend on them ya' know" Lucy defended making her lion hum in displeasure.

As the two discuss on their own conversation a little while later the mayor and his wife finally arrived, the man has a light blonde hair with pale green eyes looking all worked out and was also near on his thirties.

"Fairy Tail mages welcome, and you said she was alone" greeted the mayor who was now looking at his wife with an eyebrow raised, his finger pointing at the man beside the woman.

"She was" the wife said looking at Lucy with confusion.

"My apologies, this is my spirit Loki also known as Leo the Lion, you see I'm a celestial mage" Lucy explained to the two now standing up and introducing her friend. Their eyes widen in bewilderment, a look of hope flash through their eyes.

"You're a celestial spirit wizard you say? I am so thankful" said the mayor; they now were sitting at the couches after Lucy's small introduction.

"You see a demon has been terrorizing out our island, the people who somehow 'know' the demon suggested we get a celestial mage to take the mission" the mayor stated looking down.

"Apparently I forgot to put the specialization, but now here you are! I am quite glad and thankful you accepted the mission" looking hopeful to the blonde in front of him, he sadly smiles.

"Who is this demon that is terrorizing your island Sir? If you don't mind me asking though" she asked looking serious, the mayors smile faded and turned into a frown.

"Detriot"

A chord suddenly struck on Loki's brain, he knows that name from somewhere and that somewhere isn't really looking good. He glances on his masters face hoping she knows the name but alas much to his dismay she did not.

She looked more determined to bring this demon down, and as he knows her she'll leave towards the library to research of this so called demon. Even though if she'll know this demon is an S-class she'll do whatever it takes to bring it down, and he just hopes someone from the guild would notice and bring reinforcements in time.

Biting his lower lips he cursed her team for not being careful with their blonde, but then a question popped into his mind, how did Lucy got the S-class mission? With no answer to his question he cannot help but worry for his masters being, if worse comes to worst they'll have to do that.

"Thank you for the information, I'll do the best that I can. If you'll excuse me I'll be on my way" Lucy bid farewell after they shook their hands in agreement, and as they step out of the house, Loki turned to Lucy.

"Lucy" Loki called looking serious at the moment.

"Yes Loki?" she answered, not really faced at Loki's expression.

"This mission... is an S-class mission" he stated looking deep unto her chocolate brown eyes, searching for something to change her mind of this mission, but alas all he saw was determination.

"I figured, and that's why we're going to the library" she stated linking their arms together and dragged Loki with her, determination was present in her smiling face.

Meanwhile back at the guild, it has been a day and half Natsu and Happy were now sitting at the bar oblivious of how their guild mates look at them worryingly. Looked at them as if they were a bomn to suddenly blow up anytime soon.

"Natsu~" Happy whined.

"Yeah buddy?" Natsu replied, their cheeks on the bar counter looking bored as ever.

"It has been a day and half already, and Lushe is still isn't back" Happy murmured towards his father.

Wendy who heard their talk- because of super hearing; blurted her drink out of her mouth, with not a moment to waste she busted out the guild with Carla following. Natsu and Happy who saw the odd behavior of Wendy raised an eyebrow, the girl was now nowhere in sight.

The other members then went away from the fire dragon slayer not wanting to be interrogated nor do they want to have any contact; just as then the guild doors then slammed open. The ones who were standing their made their blood turn cold, face paling and a lump on their throat, Erza Scarlet and Gray Fullbuster was now home.

"We're home" Erza stated, but all she got was stares and a low welcome-back totally not what she thought she'd get.

Just then a shot of curses could be heard from here and there, Gray raised an eyebrow from the odd situation the guild was in. A lot of members were huddled up in a corner while Natsu and Happy were also at the bar with no one.

"Oi dumb-ass did you do something stupid again?" Gray shouted to the fire dragon slayer.

"I did not! They were already like that since I got here, underpants!" Natsu defended throwing an insult back at Gray.

"Aye!" Happy defended. Erza then looked at the other members quizzically, she then noticed two people were not there.

"Where are Lucy and Mira?" she asked, although some members could just come and go this two people were like a glue to the guild.

Mira runs the bar so why is she not there? Lucy clearly by this time would be here with Natsu and Happy, but not a speck of blonde and silver hair could be seen something's going on at the guild and team Natsu doesn't know, her eyes narrowed her brain turning trying to put the pieces together.

"Luce is on a solo mission, while Mira? I do not know" Natsu answered since none of the members wanted to.

They were all somehow quivering, and team Natsu never know why though. But for the other members? Oh how they wanted to bolt right out not wanting to do anything with the destructive team in any ways as possible.

"Oh? I'm quite impressed for Lucy to go get her game on, but strange enough on why she didn't inform us. Did you three get on a fight with her?" Erza asked darkly now at the bar counter eating her favorite strawberry cake, eyeing Natsu suspiciously.

"What?! No we did not, Lisanna, well she asked Luce out on a job. So that we could make time for her" Natsu defended looking hurt as to why Lisanna did that to Lucy.

"Hm? Lisanna did?" Gray asked who somehow appeared out of nowhere and was now sitting beside Erza.

"Aye"Natsu and Happy said simultaneously.

Unbeknownst to them of how the other members prayed for their blonde celestial mage to be retrieved quickly by Mira's group. Fairy Tail wasn't known to be quiet, sooner or later this information would get out and Mavis knows on how would they react?

Team Natsu would go on a rampage from Magnolia to Star Island, every member knows on how they treasured their Lucy so much, for she was Natsu's partner, Happy's mother and Erza and Gray's younger sister. Oh how they were all doomed to hell, they all silently prayed.

"Bet ya all someone's gonna rat it out" Cana smirked while cold sweats appearing on her forehead.

"Mavis no" Macao paled at that thought, if someone would then to hell with that person, they all were gonna get fried, sliced and frizzed when that happens.
