P.O.V Levy

"This is really all i can do?" i asked myself in disbelief while running desperately and breathless into the dark woods of Mangolia at night "Am i really this weak?... No! This can't be true... I'm a Fairy Tail mage i should be stronger... i should make justice to my title as a mage". I continued running for another hour to then rest under an oak, i closed my eyes and tried to concentrate on my surroundings... there it was again! Six months after we returned from Tenrou Island and i started my training, i began to feel i magic presence not very far from where i trained... as if it was watching me- I know that you are there!- i yelled, gaining the courage that i didn't have before- Come out! Don't be a coward!

-I wouldn't call myself a coward- a thunder appeared in front of me, leaving a mage from my guild... Laxus Dreyer- You shouldn't push yourself to that limit- he told me what made me really angry "What did he know about it?! He is quiet strong... he even won against one of the ten saint mages!".

-Why do you care?!- i shouted, standing up- I am weak! I always have to lean on the others to protect me- he looked at me shock- Everyone is strong Gajeel, you, Erza, Mira, Lisana, Elfame, Cana, Juvia, Grey, Freed, Bickslow, Evergreen, Lu-chan... even Wendy taht is a kid is stronger than me... I hate being this weak- my voice started to crack and a few tears fell from my eyes- I want to make Fairy Tail proud of having me as a mage... i don't want people to compare me to my parents that were weak... am i Levy Mc Garden not anyone else!

I locked my furious and determined gaze with his shocked and guilty one "This is who i am!".

P.O.V Laxus

Hearing those words from the one i almost kill with my thunder... the one i called weak... the one i disparages... was really shocking. But then my shock was changed with disbelief "She wasn't weak"- Why do you call yourself weak?- i asked her.

She looked at me surprise written all over her face- Because i am- she simply said which made my blood boil with frustration.

- If you were weak Gramps wouldn't have chosen you as an S-class candidate.

-He made a mistake- she truly is stubborn for being so short.

-Gramps would never do a mistake like that, you deserve that place as S-class mage candidate- still she didn't change her mind- You could rewrite Freed's runes, that shown strength.

-No that shown intelligence not strength- she argued back "For Mavis sake she is really very difficult to please!".

-You are as strong as that blondie friends of yours- i told her "Jaja i won this one".

-No, that's not true- "What the hell now?"- She can summon the Spirit King something that no one had ever done before... in a century or so.

-But you can use southern, northern, eastern and western solid script magic- i pointed out recalling what i presence while i watched her train- Also you can use Freed's magics and in comparison to blondie you can fight without magic as well as you have a big resistance.

I blushed at Laxus's words "H he was right"- Tell me how many mages have you heard of that are able to use so many kinds of magics?- he asked me. I gazed the ground trying to remember one... but didn't find anyone- See! Not even i am able to use so many different kinds of magics.

-But i am only capable of using them cause Ultear opened my second origin- i tried to argued back but failed miserably.

-I heard about that- he smirked- But Ultear opened YOUR second origin... so it means that you already had that strength in you. Sooner or later you would have been able to unlock it by yourself.

I was very confused- Why?- i asked out loud- Why are you trying so hard to make me feel better? When we both know that i'm not strong!- more tears fell from my eyes- Why... d...- "Ara... why... do... i... feel... so... weak...?" everything went black for me.

P.O.V Laxus

-Levy!- i catched her before her body touched the ground- Fuck! Levy wake up!- i shake her a bit "She must have reached her limit... i need to take her to the hospital". I tuned myself into thunder and carried her towards the nearest hospital- Help!-i shouted as i slammed the doors open "I didn't know why but i felt protective over her... i wanted to help her...".

-Whta happened?- a doctor asked.

-She pushed herself to her limit while training- i told her.

-Follow me- she ordered and i did as i was told. She guided me towards a room where i placed Levy on the bed- You'll need to leave the rest to us- the doctor said pointing towards the door as a way of telling me to leave.

I only nodded and left the room "Fuck! Why did she had to push herself to her limit? Why did you have to train day and night for hours?" i was very frustrated "I thought you were intelligent enough to know that your body wouldn't be able to handle it". I sat down on a chair with her last question on my head 'Why are you trying so hard to make me feel better?'... "Why did i try so hard?... Why did i keep on watching her train? Even though it wasn't my problem"... While i kept on waiting and asking myself questions, i began to remember her look while training... her determination to be stronger so she could make the ones she loves proud... her rage when she was compared to her parents... she looked... no she was like... me.

-Mr- the doctor called me, snapping me out from my thoughts- Your companion is all right she just need to rest, that's all- i gave her my thanks and sat next to Levy.

Watching her sleep so peacefuly made me recall old memories of my past that i forgot...

I was training in the woods... practically the same spot where Levy trains...

-Laxus!- a really young Levy called out for me- You forgot this at the library of the guild- she handed me a book which i threw next to my things- Hey!- she shouted at me angrily- Don't treat books like that! Solid Script: Fire- i received the attack thinking that it wouldn't hurt me... after all she was weak... but at the end i was very surprise "It hurts" i thought- They are precious!- she continued, picking it up- You should treat them as treasures.

-And what if i don't do it?- i asked mockingly, wanting to know how strong she was.

-Than i'll have to teach you to- she smirked defiantly puting herself in a fighting position.

I was beyond shock... the bookworm of Fairy Tail... the one that never gets into the fights of the guild... the silent kid... is challenging me to a fight. I smirked, accepting the challenge "Maybe this could be fun" and indeed it was... even tough i won at the end, she put up a good fight for such a young age "She has future as a mage... even bigger than the rest of her age" i thought at that moment but with the time it was forgotten... and left as an old memory...

Now i was completely decided "I will train her... i won't let her commit the same mistakes i did... i will make her see the strength i see in her" i smirked at the thought "Don't worry Levy you'll have me... you won't be alone as i was".
