This is my first story and I'm very nervous for its results. So please please please review (:
And this goes without me saying, I do not own Fairy Tail, if I did I would probably have a lot of money at this point, and the odds are not in my favor.
"MIRAJANE!" A piercing yell rang through the guild, startling everyone.
A purple-haired girl stood in the doorway, the sun shone off her- Wait… purple haired? From the last time Gray checked, other than the pink haired bastard, no one else had a hair color close to purple. Yet, the yell did surely come from… Oh god….
Gray bit his lips hard to stop from bursting from laughter. A hysterical laugh bursted from behind him, along with a table almost hitting him in the face.
"Wha-?" His voice was cut off when the table was snapped in half behind him. So that table wasn't aimed at him, though that didn't surprise him, if it was he will surely get hit no matter where he dodges.
"You look good in purple Armor-Girl, although I was aiming for blue." A white-haired girl sneered from behind the broken table, in her hands a bottle no doubt to be the blue dye she put in Erza's shampoo, though the purple result was unexpected.
"Wait till I make your face match my hair." There was unmistakable anger on the young girl's face, her usual scarlet hair turned into a bluish purple.
Things were not going well, now either he get out of the way or get killed, though the odds weren't in his favor. In a flash he was sent flying backwards while a girl equipped in heavy armor flew past him aiming for the sneering girl.
Flash! Everyone turned to cover their eyes as a heavy light shone through the guild
Flash! Two screams, a crash, and a groan.
Flash! Everything's back to normal. Just as Gray turned to look, two figures caught his attention at the far corner. Both with their hair standing on the end, sparks of static electricity sparkled off of them. Mirajane's usual ponytail was spread out, her hand on her head trying to keep the curly white hair from floating by itself. A dangerous expression shown across her face as she glared up at the second floor.
The other young mage was apparently hit hard. Her metal armor totally absorbed the electricity, and a painful groan escaped her lips. Sparks of electricity crackled in her abnormal purple hair, but her face never showed weakness.
"LAXUS!" The pink-haired boy yelled from off to the side, "Fight—"
His words were cut off when the whole guild exploded with anger.
"Sure Laxus, stop them but why the light!"
"Did you have to blind us like that?"
"Hey Electric-Head! What's your problem?" A flash of white and Mirajane was totally in his face.
"Make sure you brats don't disturb my nap again." Two auras mixed dangerously with each other, sparks cracking between them.
Forcing his head away from the major scene, he found himself staring blankly at the girl trying to compose herself of her anger. Walking slowly to her, he noticed the electricity still crackling against her armor. A normal person would have at least been immobilized from that, yet he knew Erza was never a normal person.
"You should at least get out of that armor," without thinking, he pointed out, then soon realizing his mistake.
"What are you, a pervert?" Her brown eyes met his and through her eyes he saw amusement.
"W—Well, the electrici—electricity, I mean…" He stuttered, what was he thinking, commenting on her armor.
Her lips shook a little, hiding a small smile. "Hey, calm down, I know what you mean Gray." With a flash of light, the crackling armor disappeared, replaced with a loose white shirt and the usual blue skirt.
"—with that snobbish attitude."
"Brat, are you going to stop ranting or should I make you?"
They were still going on and on with the arguing. "Aren't you going to—?" He nudged his head in Laxus' direction.
"You need to know when to start a fight and when to just back off" She ended with a grin, "And when to attack." With that, a furious scream pierced Gray's poor young ears and then a clanging of metal against the floor.
"Armored brat!" Laxus apparently dodged the worst of it while Mirajane was… That's not good.
"Let's go!" Erza literally dragged Gray out of the guild while equipping in a black armor that was showing awfully a lot.
"What the hell was that about?" He panted as he examined his poor pants, ripped and scratched from all the rough dragging.
"Revenge is sweet." She grinned as she dipped her hair into the river beside them.
"I meant my pants!" He scowled at the girl attempting to change back her hair color.
"Buy a new one." She said that so calmly, which raised his fury even more.
"How bout you take your…" His voice trailed off when a tiny drop of liquid rolled downed the girl's face.
"What…."
Her eyes snapped up and she quickly splashed him with the clear water from the river. Tiny droplets sprayed his bare chest, but he could not take his eyes off that one single drop, still lingering on her face.
"What's wrong? Already know you can't beat me in a water fight?" Desperately trying to change the subject, Erza hid her sadness deep within herself, just like always. Though it doesn't change the fact that the blue dye reminded her, filled her with the memories of the past.
The ice mage stepped forward, but instead of splashing her back, his hand wandered up to her face and placed it over the translucent tear. In a brief second, Lying in his hand was a tiny drop of ice, glistening in the sun.
"Tell me, why is the mighty Titania so sad within?" His voice was barely above a whisper, his eyes still focused on the silver droplet on his palm.
"I'm not! I'm… I'm fine." Her composure was always this calm, serious. The great Titania always had it together, never losing herself in her emotions. He knew that was a lie.
"Isn't that what you tell everyone?" Her eyes met his, reluctant to show her sadness, her fear. "Are you really fine?"
Backing away from him, once again making sure her face remained passive, but she cannot stop the tears that were threatening to fall out. "Ask me that tomorrow…"
With that last sentence, she turned and strolled away in perfect, rhythmic footsteps into the sun. The sun with its warm, scarlet rays of light, giving its last passionate glow before the darkness swallowed her shadow.
I honestly think the pairing Erza x Gray is pretty cute together, the way he blushes every time she cries XD
Please review :/ I won't be updating everyday but I will do it as soon as I can.
