Summary: Because Gray wouldn't come to his senses no matter what…
"You don't know when to stop, do you?" His ears perked up at that tone of voice. He was well aware of who it belonged to. Even though he claimed he broke the family link, even though he knew fairytail was no more… even then… it was something he could never forget. That voice of hers…
A sword went past his ear and pierced the ground,cracking it open. His body flinched and turned around to witness the most dreadful sight ever.
"Erza?…" he heard Lucy mutter.
And there she stood, the Titania, clad in her Heaven's wheel armor. To say he was possessed would be an understatement seeing her form. Natsu was busy fighting somewhere and he was left in-charge of watching Lucy. Mary, of course, was keeping a watch on him while he did that.
Now that Gray remembered, Mary was nowhere to be seen- if the person whose body was under Erza's feet wasn't hers. It serves her right. He wasn't concerned of people who didn't trust him. But Erza was a whole different matter.
She stood their in her armour ready to attack him, if possible with an intent to kill him. That's what he thought.
He shrugged his shoulder- his famous stoic expression was on his face.
"Look who joined the race…" he welcomed Erza.
She gladly accepted the invitation giving him two of her swords in the most 'safe' way possible.
He successfully dodged them. However, the fact remained that she could kill him if she wanted with a single attack. The power emanating from her body was overwhelming him. It would be a giveaway match to fight her.
The Book of END…
He recollected his idea of revenge- his only purpose in life.
"How can you do this?" she asked.
What has he done, beside overthrowing his leftover feelings for his guild and so called 'comrades'? He scratched the back of his neck, choosing to be ignorant of whatever sin he might have committed that caused her to be so upset.
Not upset… She was furious and sad too. There are traces of her having cried. Who did it? Who made Erza cry?
The book of END…
His eyes turned hollow again and everything was forgotten. He only remembered one thing: This red haired woman was standing in front of him and being an obstacle in his goal. She had to be eliminated.
Eliminate her…
Before he could even attack, he felt himself flying in the air and his face hurting.
"Gray Fullbuster, I want an answer right now. How dare you hurt Juvia like that?!"
And for the the first time, without a death threat, that name from her mouth filled him with so much guilt.
"Don't…" the air around him started growing darker…
"Don't utter that name!" he shouted, releasing ice and freezing his surroundings. Lucy shivered under the cold. Mary who was now conscious withdrew herself before it touched her. Erza blocked the attack, only to find a troubled Gray, completely exhausted and flabbergasted by his own attack standing on his two feet.
If I think of her…. I will never have the book of END! So…
"Don't utter that name"
To be continued….
A/n: It would probably be open-ended short fic but I think Erza would be the one to make him snap out of his possession (Because everything that happened in FT 428 didn't work on him. Probably, Sting, Rogue, Minerva, and Yukino might come to rescue our 'Gray rescue team'. Before I ramble again, I think Erza should come because she is a freaking Gruvia shipper after all! {also one of the closest friends to Gray. Not to forget, Gray won't fight her. He made a promise to himself}) . I'll probably write one or two more of these, that's all.
