Trapped in a Mountain of Memories
Chapter 1 – Prologue – Trapped
Yeah, ok so this is my first story and I'm not used to writing, so I'm gonna do my best. I promise I'll try to update regularly and all that stuff.
Ok so i know you have to put one of those Disclamer thingys so here it goes.
Naturesshadow says in a loud squeaky voice "I do not own Fairy Tail; that right belongs soley to Mashima Hiro. As for the story it belongs to me."
So how was that?
Lucy POV
This mission had to be the funniest, cutest and saddest mission yet and it was, of course all thanks to Natsu but you know it didn't start out that way at all…
It was morning and not the type of morning where the sun was shining and the birds were chirping, No this morning was a type of morning you just wanted to forget, at least normal people would, but to me this was my normal morning.
When I first open my eyes I'm met with a stupid blue cat yelling "Lucy! Where's the fish" in my face
After that I yell at him and his owner to "Get the hell out of my house"
But there was no response from his owner.
"Um, Natsu?!" Lucy questions
Still no response…
So I turned around and see Natsu sitting there with a very distant and sad look covering his face. Natsu… sad… face… c..Cute I thought
Wait I shouldn't be thinking about that, should I? I mentally slapped myself for the thought worried me a little.
"Natsu are you ok" I asked in a worried tone
"Huh, oh Hi Luce" Natsu said
He then proceeded to rub the back of his head, give a small laugh and then that trademark grin of his just appeared on his face like he was saying nothing's wrong.
But boy oh boy was that a deceiving smile
I looked at him, worry etched onto my face.
"I Said, Get the hell out of my house" I scream in his face, just like Happy did when I first woke up I nodded at the thought.
"Yeah ok, I'll leave, bye Luce" Natsu whispers, then jumps out my window
Really the window I thought in defeat as I yell "Why don't you leave like a Normal person"
Later at the guild, I was greeted by the usual loud ruckus.
"Gray, your clothes" Cana stated while drinking another barrel of wine
"Ahh, where'd they go" Gray yells in embarrassment, and then he scurries of to find them
"If you're a man, you need not wear clothes" Elfman yelled, making, little too no sense
"Don't you dare start striping, Elfman? Unless you want your sister to beat some sense into you" Mira warned an evil smile gracing her usually innocent features
He yells "Yes nee san…" he then whispered under his breath "… Sisters are manly"
"Charla, do you want a fish?" Happy asks quite innocently
"Hump, the day I take your fish, is the day Wendy beats Natsu and Gageel!" Charla says in a stuck up tone
"A-aye, that will never happen" Happy stated
"Exactly!" Charla adds
Luckily Wendy wasn't at hearing range during this event. And oddly enough Natsu's not here I had thought
Just then Natsu pops out of nowhere stating "Luce, do you wanna go on a job with me?"
"Umm, depends on what kind of job it is?" I avoid the question
"It's a job where we have to…
At the mission "Luce, I understand Erza, but why'd you have to invite the Ice Freak to join us?"
"Because Natsu, whether you like it or not, he's part of our team, and besides this mission is just too difficult for three wizards alone" I answer his stupid question or more like whining
"Aye, and I'm forgotten again" Happy says sadly
"Luce, get out of the way" Natsu yells
Natsu then pushed me, sending me a few feet away and doing so caused him to be standing in the exact same place I had been.
"What the hell Flam…. Gray started, but before he could finish Natsu was thrown across from his position, in front of Gray's line of sight and into a cave. There was nothing there that could have possibly hit him, yet he went flying I thought rather confused…
It, hurt a little, but I managed to get on my feet. Then we all ran, except for Happy he flew, over to the cave that Natsu was thrown into.
Bad idea, really bad idea
As we entered the dark confines of the cave. A loud grumbling sound was heard outside. Then suddenly the exit was closed off by at least a tone of rock…
Great, just great I thought to myself
It was really dark; I couldn't even see my hands in front of my face.
"Is everyone ok?" a voice asked from beside me and judging by the pitch; it was Erza
A high pitch "Aye" is heard first.
Followed by a "Yeah" spoken in cool voice that can only be known as Gray's
"Apart from the fact I can't see, I'm good as well" I state my answer
"What about Natsu?" Erza asked
"Ouch, I'm ok; I guess… he trailed off
"Natsu!" Erza demanded
"Y-yes Erza" Natsu responds
"If you're ok, would you please be kind enough to spare one of you flames for light so that we may see one another" She demands again
"Ok, wait one second… he then lights his fist on fire.
The cave imminently filled with a warm light, but it was too bright to see Natsu's face. Then Natsu collected some rocks and placed them in a circle, placing his hand in the centre of the rocks he chanted some words in a langue I didn't know. The flames sunk into the stone ground, he removed his hand and a small flame was left behind floating above the stone floor. He then sunk to the ground and started staring at the flame.
"It's a magic flame, this way it doesn't steal any oxygen and it doesn't need any wood to stay alive, also I can change its temperature at will; so if it gets to hot or too cold just tell me" he whispered just loud enough for us to hear
"Good thinking" Erza exclaimed a small smile gracing her lips. Then she walked over and sat beside the fire joining Natsu in admiring the flame. Happy flew over too and sat in Natsu's lap.
"Yeah Flame Bain, good thinking, but doesn't that take too much magic, I mean not like I care or anything but you're not going to be dead wait, are you?" Gray asks as he also walks over to join them at the edge of the fire. I decided to follow him and I took a seat next to Natsu, awaiting his answer to Gray's question…
"Thanks, and no Gray, the flame takes a lot of magic to produce but once it's formed it survives on its own until the caster dispels the spell" Natsu says looking rather exhausted
"Oh, that's pretty neat then" Gray adds actually impressed by one of Natsu's magic's
"Yes it is 'neat', but Natsu where did you learn such a powerful spell?" Erza asks rather shocked because she knew of the spell and she knew; it was hard to master.
"Yeah well, I learnt it from Master…. he said it'd be useful" Natsu said then he slowly fell back.
Gray who was behind him in an instant caught his head before it collided with the hard rocky ground. Natsu stared up at him with tired eyes then said really quietly "Sorry, just…tired….don't….worry" his eyes then fell closed and he was in a sleep but not a deep sleep; just a light not so peaceful sleep.
"Guess he was tired" Gray stated
"Guess he was" Erza stated back
"Aye and he seems to be hurt, but I doubt he will tell us what hurts" Happy whispered sadly
All I could do was stare at the tree of them, it was like they knew this would happen; like they knew exactly what was wrong with Natsu and somehow I felt kind of left out.
After that thought, none of us wanting to be awake any loner; we said good night and drifted off into a not so pleasant sleep.
Yeah so is my story any good, if it is; I already have chapter 2, 3 and 4 finished.
Is it interesting? Would you like to read more?
Then give me a review please.
Yours sincerely Naturesshadow
