Lucy grew up loved dearly by not only her parents, but the entire kingdom of Fiore. Her mother, the queen, was close friends with the Dragneel family, so the young princess and Natsu were nearly inseparable as children.
However, after Lucy's mother died in an accident, her father turned cold, locking her up for fear of losing his only heir. Lucy struggled just to get through life with no friends and no real family.
The General Games, however, creates a gateway for normal citizens to compete with the goal of becoming a general over the king's soldiers. Natsu plans to use this opportunity to see Lucy again after many years of separation.
But even if he wins, can he save Lucy from both her father and herself?
...
Oh yeah, and I don't own Fairy Tail or any of that jazz.
Lucy's breath hitched.
"You saved mine, so I'll have to save yours. That's just how it works. So, naturally, I can't leave until that happens. I'm beholden to you."
No way. This is so not true. It can't be! It's not supposed to be!
A dragon prince beholden to a mere human? This never ends well.
He gave her a sheepish smile, and Lucy couldn't help but wonder that he might actually be enjoying himself, despite what he might say.
"..so if I put it in other words.." he began. "You're kinda stuck with me.."
All rights for the characters and concept of Fairy Tail belong to Hiro Mashima. Story inspired from a prompt. The plot development is mine :).

This is my own idea. Similarity to any existing fanfiction out there is purely coincidental....
