Synopsis
Key of the Starry Arc (anime only)
Arriving by train, she enters Fairy Tail guild where Romeo points to Lucy. She introduces herself to Lucy who does not even know her. Immediately, Michelle cries. Furthermore, Michelle shocks Lucy and her friends when she called Lucy, "Nee-san." She explains her family and the Heartfilia family are distant relatives to correct Happy's idea that Lucy's father had an illegitimate daughter. Michelle starts to cry a bit until Lucy asks her about the case she is carrying. She tries to embrace Lucy, but Michelle drops the case on her toe. Moments later, Michelle informs Lucy that her father's memento is in this case and that he instructed her to bring to Lucy. She explains to Lucy that her father also instructed her to search for Lucy during the 7 year gap. Natsu tells them to open the case. Inside the case, Lucy and the others find a bandaged object. Carla seems to be afraid of it as they unwrap the mysterious key-like object. Michelle tells everyone that she hasn't eaten in three days.[1]
By the river, Michelle follows Lucy to her house while carrying Plue in her arms, and Lucy tells her how much she loves her guild. Michelle compliments Lucy and states that Jude would be proud of her. In Lucy's house, Michelle gazes at the photos of Jude Heartfilia and Layla Heartfilia and then, she reads Lucy's newest script for a novel. When Lucy comes back, she finds Michelle crying about Iris. Michelle expresses her envy for Lucy who has big dreams while she has none. Lucy decides to let Michelle stay here. Michelle starts crying again, and Lucy tells her to get a job here at Fairy Tail guild. A montage of Michelle helping her guild is shown while Lucy narrates. With the montage over, Natsu calls Lucy for a job to catch some bandits, and Michelle gets excited because she wants to see Lucy in action. Even though Lucy doesn't want Michelle to be there, Makarov and the others insist that she brings Michelle with her; Erza reasons that Michelle will get experience. Lucy vows to protect Michelle as the gang head out for their mission.[1]
Somewhere in Fiore, Gray goes over the mission, but Erza comes with the cart and a plan involving her and Lucy being decoy while Natsu and Gray attacks the bandits by surprise. However, Natsu refuses to ride in the cart which prompts Michelle to volunteer as a decoy. As Michelle and Lucy drive the cart down the path, Erza and Gray wait in the back with Natsu and Happy soaring in the sky. Michelle and Lucy arrives to a blockade where the bandits greet them; Lucy immediately execute Erza's plan by showing off her body. Somehow, the bandits are not aroused by Lucy's curvaceous body. When the bandits decide to rob the cargo, the men find Gray attractive and tries to assault him. Though, Gray and Erza attack them. The boss appears and freaks out Lucy and Michelle with his strange behavior. He attacks Lucy, and Michelle attempts to help her; Natsu defeats the boss.
With the mission over, Lucy and Michelle eat lunch, and Michelle proposes to make a request to solve the mystery behind Jude's memento. At Fairy Tail guild, Lucy gets permission, and Natsu takes on Michelle's job. Then, Michelle trips with the memento falling on the ground. Suddenly, the object levitates with mysterious runes or characters revealing itself on the object. Makarov tries to tell Lucy to give up on the request, but Lucy insists on solving the riddle for Michelle's sake. [1]
