Mission

Natsu, Gray and Happy went for a fairly well-paid mission. They had to find a diamond in the old palace. I managed to do them. But an old magician attacked them wanting to get the treasure. Mages fought, it seem that they are lose, because barely made a living on their feet while their opponent had a few scratches. At one moment the room erupted. Everyone was scared and no one knew what was happening. Happy and Gray fell in down that was caused by the explosion. Only about a boy realized what was going on so he grabbed the cat, and hugged it to himself to protect him.

When Fullbuster awoke he was in a dark room. It hurt terribly the body, especially the head and side. He could feel the blood flowing down his face, and felt strange moisture under them.

'' Happy! Are you alright?''

'' Aye''

The boy tried to quickly get up because he saw another bomb with a clock on the was15 minutes, but at the moment when he move left side his body brought him much pain.

'' Happy! Can you move…'' he interrupted because become the pain got worse.

'' Aye ... And you? Ah! Gray! Your body. Your side!''

Just now Fullbuster noticed what was the source of this pain. The guy was lying on his stomach and his left side was pierced by a large metal rod. He tried to move but it only increased the wound. Now I noticed a puddle of blood.

'' Damn!'' He got cold chills, picture darkened and became blurry ... he lost consciousness. Crying and scared Happy woke up him. He looked at the clock on a bomb.

'' 'WHAT? Not all of 5 minutes? HOW? Happy you can fly? *Cat's wings show* Good. You have to go and find Natsu! You see this gap through which flows into the light? -*Cat a nodded* there you refer, is probably the only way out of here. When do you find Natsu and he will no conscious then will just grab it and it run away from here!''

'' And you? Gray your body! How you to escape from here?''

Gray was stroking cat with a gentle smile and he said with tired and sad tone:

'' Somehow, I get by ...''

'' How?'' Cried a desperate Happy

''I will destroy is a piece of metal with ice and freeze my wound ... I hope I still have enough magic''

Again he looked at the bomb

'' Happy! Can you promise me something?''

'' ... Aye ...''

''You will say Natsu something, ok?"

''Ok''

'' And this is what Natsu pass from me you don't tell anyone else ... right?''

'' ... A.. Aye ...''

Gray smiled and spoke in a whisper:

'' Tell him I'm really happy that I met him I was his rival and friend. I am proud and do not regret it. I'm so happy I belong to Fairy Tail because I met so many wonderful people. I really love our guilds and all - we are family. I love it all. And especially the ... Yeah, I did not believe it but ... Yes, I like Natsu. Very like. I don't know what it this it feeling. It's strange. I know it's stronger than me ... always was ... He will continue to grow in strength to protect others. Now fly'' the boy gave soothing kiss on cat's head.

'' Gray! Please, no! This is goodbye ...''

'' There's no time to discussion what it's. It's 3 minutes. I'm fast mage... I think... I hope I will do it but if not... tell it all Natsu! Hurry up! Happy! Do not cry just fly! Fly!''

'' But ...''

'' HAPPY! NOW! PLEASE! GO!''

These words cried with tears in his eyes. Cat go to a designated location and at once found unconscious Dragneel. He grabbed it and flew to the big door that led outside. Gray stared at the still moments in a place where the cat had again he felt a big pain. He began to squeal in his ears, the picture again became darker and blurry. His eyelids become very heavy. Although he was a magician he was cold. Tears flowed down his face, and commingled with the blood. This is the end? No! Can't be! He fought! He did as he said Happy he destroy this a piece of metal with ice and freeze his wound. He looked at the clock. One and a half minutes. He rose unsteadily, and began to run. Again there was an explosion. Shortly after that he was still conscious but was catch by darkness. I did not know what is happening. I just fell asleep.

'' Natsuuu!'' Cat tried to wake a friend

'' Hymmm ... Whooo! WHAT? WHERE I'M? HAPPY! Are you alright? Who the hell put bombs in so frail and old palace? Because it was a bomb right? And where is this old man? Damn! I'll get him! Oh, luckily I still have the diamond ... Just...Where is Gray?''

'' Aye - I'm fine. Aye - it was a magic bomb. And aye - I know who planted it, it was the old man, witch who have you fought ... uh...We're out''

'' Oh .. Thanks but .. Gray! Where is he?''

''In castle'' kitten whispered, and again started crying

'' What? Why? We have to go get him!''

At the moment when he get up, he third explosion occurred. Natsu was stunned.

'What do I do? I can't go in there. But there is still the Gray! No ... I have to go in there '

Natsu took a deep breath, put a cat on his shoulder and ran toward the ruins. But when he ran fourth explosion occurred. The explosion of rejected dragon slayer at large distances. Natsu hit his head on a tree and lost consciousness.

Natsu woke up after some time. At first he didn't know what happened, but when he saw what was left of the castle realized he knew.

'' Happy! Are you alright? Hey, Happy!''

'' Aye .. I'm alright ...''

Natsu took the kitten and put him back on his shoulder again.

'' Yosh! We're going to this idiot! "
