Fairy Tail

So i am currently re-watching Fairy tail, i know its a fan-service heavy anime but i like its plot....as well as its PLOT.

When i like an anime i tend to try to choose and think about points that would make an interesting fan-fiction. For Fairy Tail most (if not all of the "fan-fic AU points" are around Lucy Heartfilia.

Love or hate her you cant argue that she is a catalyst of plot development for the Fairy Tail guild. If she didn't meet Natsu at....at....that fishing town (go easy on me i have had a few sleeps since episode 1) Then Natsu would still just run around chasing rumors instead of going on a bunch of jobs, remember Natsu hasn't really got a major need for money other than food, where as in cannon its mainly Lucy's need for rent money that sparks the teams need for a mission.

So the first Fan-Fic AU point is simple, what if Natsu and Lucy didn't meet at Hargeon (see i can Google). Just from this point you can go down so many other routes, mainly because there needs to be a reason, one of them didn't make it to the town that day, why?

Maybe Natsu didn't make it off the train due to his sickness, maybe the guy who told him about the salamander rumour waited an extra day?

Lucy is a bit harder to delay as i belive she was on her way to Fairy tail from the start, so unless she took some time for some sightseeing you'd have to use some whim or luck thing to delay her.

Lets go down the Natsu doesn't go route, Lucy first meets the fake salamander and falls under the spell, this time without Natsu to snap her out of it at the time she is just mentally aware that something is off and tries to fight the spell, she spots the ring causing the charm and recognises it, breaking the spell's hold on her. Dis-heartened that a fairy Tail wizard would use those things she walks away.

Fake salamander finds Lucy at the same bench and the scene plays out in one 2 ways, she either does goes with him on his party boat like in cannon, or she flat out says no and leaves him.

Knowing that if she goes to fairy tail and mentions what happened he would be found out Fake sally would knock Lucy out and keep her pacified either with magic or drugs. either way with Natsu not there to get angry and smash things Lucy gets kidnapped and taken to the other country along with the other girls.

As Lucy's keys were knocked away from her into the ocean there is a chance they would be fished up at some point, maybe a sea creature ate them or picked them up but eventually the shopkeeper that Lucy used her...charms to get discount see the keys and recognises who they belonged to, he posts a job with the local Magic Guild that just so happened to be Fairy Tail!

With his many business connections Jude Heartfilia (Lucy's Dad) catches wind of this and adds a much higher reward for her return. Due to a new wave of bills from the beloved magic council the master sends a team out to find out as much as possible about the job while he does to the Magic summit thing. After which he would make a decision on who should take the job.

Natsu seeing that its a Father looking for their child heads out before the master returns as he feels a personal connection to the job.

With no Lucy to join the team and Natsu missing when Erza returns she sends grey and Loke to bring him back, Grey volunteers to bring him by beating him up, and Loke joins him, outwardly saying its to help a fellow guild member but inwardly he is concerned about the keys (i am imagining that the shopkeeper would have taken a photo of the keys for the flyer, this in turn would cause Loke to worry as his old friends could be mistreated if anyone picked up the keys, or If this Lucy wasn't kind to them). Erza meanwhile would head towards the Guild Master's summit, (perhaps with a couple of other member's). With no Lucy and Virgo there Erza and whoever tagged along are trapped inside the wind spell.

With the masters Makarov either uses his magic words...or magic to defeat the bad guys before the flute could be played. (i refuse to accept the the Guild Masters wouldn't be able to do anything against the thing).

Makarov frees Erza's team from the wind magic where she tells him about Natsu, Grey and Loke. The master explains the job and asks Erza to go and get all three of them to join her and find the missing Girl. (due to the endless possibilities and possible rumours of slave trade he would made it an S class quest i believe, and in turn would have turned to his only sane(ish) s-class wizard), after giving her a copy of the Job details (he shared the job with the other guilds) Erza heads to the port.

I recon that Blue Pegasus would join Fairy Tail in the quest as the play-boy trio would do anything to help a woman i need. Along with Ichya (the short guy who has parfum!) After some high jinks, fights and happenings Erza agrees to work with them when they Meet in Hargeon.

Im gunna stop there because i didn't plan on this being this long, but i hope you see what i mean when I Talk about AU points, once you have them they write themselves in a way. The trick is trying to make it so that the changes in the characters happen naturally. Not 'just cause',for example: Lucy decided to train and get stronger as she was tired of being weak.

No, what made her think that throughout the anime we saw that the was aware that she wasn't the best fighter, so what made her want to change, and how did her spirits respond to her desire?

Another thing that bothers me is the zodiac spirits, they are supposedly rare and powerful...but they really aren't that strong, i mean cancer is a hair dresser....te fek? Another possible fan fic is what if the spirits changed with the times? At one point they were practically Gods but as times moved on and wars stopped they didn't need war spirits, cancer focused on his hobby of fashion and hair dressing, Virgo on maid...things... Its frustrating to see them so weak.

Yes i know that they are only as strong as the person who summons them but there is no real proof of that, like in the Grand magic games( GMG i will call it) Lucy is able to open two gates at once, it would be cool to see her have to make a choice, either two sprit's at normal power level, or one spirit powered up. Similar to how when Issei from Highschool DXD ( I know more Plot with PLOT) had to choose when he powered up between either normal boosted gear or balance breaker. He couldn't just activate it anymore.

But year all that was from one simple change, Natsu not turning up, i like coming up with ideas like this so i may post some more, if anyone wants to make a fan fic with this idea or any other ideas i may put forward please do, just make sure you give some small credit and let me know the link.

Buh bye!

PS: this was supposed to be my opionon on fairy tail and the AU points but the inner writer wannabe took over and this happened soz!
