Beginning
THIS IS NOT NALU! Cause I don't sail that Ship, its mostly family friendship but you'll find a way to pair it anyway wont you -_-
It wasn't supposed to be like this and yet it was how did they not see the signs.
How did they let this happen to them, how could they fall for that façade?
Now as slit eyes stared down at her as nothing more than a meal a forked tongue tipped with salivated poison, she couldn't even cry out from the sharp claw's holding her down like prey.
Dark form illuminated by hellish purple and black flame's, flowing from head to tail ready to burn.
Looking truly like some demon from the deepest pits of Earth Land.
Her friends wouldn't get to her in time; no one would be able to save her.
Looking at the scaled face of her reptilian doom all the way through, sharp teeth exposed ready to feast on her flesh all she could do was clutch the material around her neck pink Fairy Tail mark face up.
Mouth open as a blur of blue and a scream, followed by red splattering onto her pale skin and then a roar.
This was it and it was their entire fault.
(Two Weeks earlier)
"Gray, kill me" face turned a very interested shade of purple Natsu Dragneel felt like his stomach was trying to jump out of him.
How he hated transportation, why couldn't they walk it would be so much easier.
Well okay it wouldn't, but still.
Why was he cursed like this anyway, that thought was quickly thrown away by another wave of nausea.
"Why don't we just knock him out again" the stripper was lucky he could barley move or else he'd have blown him out the train.
He hated being knocked out it was almost as bad as being motion sick, that and Erza didn't exactly hold back.
Lucy sighed as she looked Natsu's way; it was like this every time they took a job that was out of walking distance.
Natsu would get motion sick and complain, Gray would become irritated and Erza would either knock him out, knock both boys out or give a threatening glare that shut anyone up.
The only one who seemed to completely ignore these arguments was Happy, the blue exceed was completely asleep on Natsu's lap while said boy seemed to be trying and failing to loose consciousness.
The small argument had been silenced by a glare thankfully; at times it could get embarrassing for Lucy when everyone looked at them when they argued.
Yet she wouldn't have it any other way, it meant things were peaceful in her opinion.
The good thing was they only had three more hour's until they got to the station and another hour walk to the town, who's bright idea was it to build a town in the middle of the forest anyway.
The job required the help of getting rid of a monster problem, what kind of monster they didn't know.
They had all been too busy looking at the reward to ask Mira or Master, cringing internally Lucy wondered if this would end up being another situation where she lost her clothing.
It was like Earth land had it out for her to always loose a part of her clothing or end up in a compromising situation.
Or even worst, would they destroy half the town and lose their reward…she needed to pay rent damnit!
Thankfully the silence lasted until they got to the station as Happy was able to convince Natsu, who was currently being over dramatic that the train had stopped.
"I'll never leave this spot again" said Natsu as he allowed himself to lie on the concrete floor.
"Enough joking around, it's time to head out" Erza like always kept their mission in mind, even though she was pulling her usually ridiculous amount of luggage.
"Can't we eat first" was the dragon slayers response as Happy chimed in his own two cents.
"Yeah, can't we even stop for a fish" he whined slightly as there was literally the sound of thunder as Erza loomed over the two.
"We will eat once we get into town and speak to our client, do I make myself clear!" both responded with an immediate 'Aye Sir'.
'Scary' was Lucy's thought's as Gray smirked slightly but not enough to ensure Titania's wrath.
No matter how long anyone had known Erza, she always has and will be the scariest person they meet who's sometimes the weirdest person ever.
The cake and costume quirks were just a few to name.
"So what kind of monster did the flier say?" asked Lucy as she walked a few steps behind Erza.
"A kind of lizard that's been kidnapping the inhabitants" Erza went onto explain as while Gray and Lucy listened a certain someone wasn't.
"Like a couple of lizards can beat us! Right buddy" was the confident response of Natsu.
"Aye Sir!" agreed Happy a small fist pump into the air.
"And we'll end up cleaning up after you like always" was an almost mocking response from Gray.
"What did you say!" and thus the usually arguments of the ice and fire wizard began.
Erza complete ignored them as Lucy wished she had some earplugs; sometimes the best idea was to let them tire themselves out in a yelling match.
A bad first impression always ended up being a bad last impression to.
The blond haired girl sweat dropped slightly at that, but she wouldn't trade this craziness for anything else.
Though after thirty minutes of walking and once the two tried to pull punches, a quick beating from Erza and everything was quiet for the most part.
Though as Lucy looked around the only place clear of tree's was the path they were on, the station had been surrounded by grassland but after eight minutes of walking it switched to thick woodland.
It was unnerving despite the afternoon sun the forest seemed to hold a strange coldness or a type of darkness, when she looked at the tree's she swore they were being watched.
And she hadn't been the only one, glancing at her friends they all seemed on high alert.
Well everyone except Happy who was flying extra close to Natsu.
Even as they finally reached the town they still didn't feel safe, it was as if something was watching them from everywhere in the forest.
Lucy had no idea how right she was.
(Elsewhere)
A scaled being watched the group, its forked tongue tasting the magic in the air.
'Ice, Reequip, Celestial and Fire magic, the cats magic was a simple for not to be worried about' were its thoughts.
Though the ice and fire mages worried the creature, they were his only real threat at least he thought.
The creature had been asleep for the past 100 yrs what did he know of how much magic had changed in that time.
Turning letting out a hiss like sound several others of its kind seemly appeared from other trees, all of them many times smaller and different in appearance to the creature.
Some even worse strange items as they all followed, letting the darkness of the tree's envelop them.
'It's been some time, I could use a new power' that was the last thing the creature thought as its yellow eyes held the start of a plan.
He was a lot smarter than anyone would give a monster like him credit for; of course considering what he branched off from it wasn't surprising at all.
They'd be here soon, it had been that village seemed they finally had enough.
Well, looking at his followers all of them hissed at the prospect of fresh meat.
Time for the game to begin
Yeah it's a bit weird also by his dependence's the creature means his kind branched off from Dragons around 1000 yrs ago like a sub-sub species
