Heeeeeyy!
I don't own Fairy Tail, as you people know. I don't really want to say anything else. I'm feeling too lazy.
OK, enjoy the story!
Lucy
"HAPPY! WE NEED TO GET TO THE GUILD RIGHT AWAY!"
"Aye sir!"
"Umm… Happy, I'm a girl."
"Well, if we need to get to the guild, I wouldn't sweat it."
Happy's right. We need to get to the guild more than I need to be right.
As we were flying, he asked "So, why exactly did we need to break off your very important shopping trip?"
I begin the story. "So you know that cat girl, Milliana?"
"How could I forget?"
"Well, anyways, I was walking to the Heart Kreuz store to look around, when I see that cat girl sobbing on a bench with a bunch of Mermaid Heel girls around her. I went to ask her what was wrong…"
It was all replaying in my mind now. She was saying, "I didn't know, I didn't know…"
"Shh, it's not your fault, Milliana."
"Oi! Milliana! What's going on?" I had asked.
"They said they wanted a sample… I was so proud… Huh? LUCY! Thank goodness you're here! I need you to take a message to Erza right away!"
"What is it?"
She stifled a sob. "The Magic Council found Meredy, Ultear and Jellal… There's going to be a public execution in twenty minutes…"
I was shocked. "How do you know this?"
"They wanted a sample of my ropes. 'To improve their anti-magic cuffs', they said. I never thought that they would use it on them!"
*Out of the flashback*
… "And that's when I started looking for you, Happy."
We had arrived at the guild. I slammed open the doors. "Erza!"
She was talking with Mira. "Lucy?"
Happy and I were panting. "Public execution… twenty minutes… they found Ultear… Meredy… And JELLAL."
She froze.
Then her second reaction came.
"OUT OF MY WAY!" She yelled, and everyone made a huge path for her.
She ran out of the guild.
"Does she even know where it is?" I asked Happy.
"I think so."
"I HOPE so. For her sake… and Jellal and Ultear and Meredy's."
Natsu
"Oi, Erza! Wait up!"
Gray and I started running after her.
"We wanna come too!" Said that stupid droopy-eyed ice bastard, Gray. Sadly, he had a point.
She had Requipped into her Flight Armor. I activated the spell which gave me fire boosters on my feet (AN: I've seen Natsu do it in the anime openings, but never in the actual anime or manga, but I'm just going to pretend that he can), since Happy was so tired.
Heh, now Gray can't come.
"Oh, so you're just going to RUN all the way?!" I yelled down to him.
"If I have to!" He replied.
That weirdo.
But I have to come. Jellal and I may have had bad memories in the past, but all of us can tell that he's really special to Erza. If rescuing him means she won't cry anymore, then I'll do it. Erza should never have to cry anymore. NEVER.
We just have to get there in time.
Erza:
I'm so scared.
What if we don't get there in time? What if we do, but I can't stop it happening?
I NEED TO SAVE HIM. I love him. I even liked him waaaayy back, in the Tower of Heaven. During those eight years in which I had been exiled from there, I always wondered if there still was a little bit of Jellal left in him. That he wasn't completely taken over by "Zeref". That's how he tricked me in the Tower of Heaven – pretending that he wasn't truly gone. That he was just a puppet.
I guess he was, in a way.
We're here, and I light down in the middle of the crowd. Lahar is up on a platform, with Jellal, Ultear and Meredy tied to posts. He's saying something that I can't make out. He raises his staff.
I start jumping on people's heads to get to the platform. They start to scream and yell. Lahar, the Rune Knights, and Crime Sociere look at me. Their eyes widen in shock. Lahar decides to ignore me and carry on. He raises his staff, and he shoots a spell at the two. It's a huge black orb of… something.
"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" I shriek.
There is a flash of blinding light. The dust clears, the smoke blows away, and everyone is surprised.
In that instant, when the orb was going to hit the two prisoners, I had Requipped into my Adamantine Armor, and created a shield at the last second. They were unharmed, but that blast had seriously damaged the armor. Damn. I'll have to bring it in to get fixed.
Well, after I get out of jail.
Jellal:
I'm shocked.
How did she know? Why did she save me? Well, I guess I know the answer to the second question.
Natsu and Gray come running in. Erza Requips out of her armor and into the one (or the clothes, it's not really armor) that she fought me in.
Oh, boy.
Things are going to get serious.
She unties us.
"Erza! What…What –"
"You two. Go. Go to the Western Continent if you have to, just get out of here! NOW!"
She gives me a kiss on the cheek, and for a second I'm too stunned to move. Then Meredy is tugging on my hand, and we're running, and I see Erza fighting the Rune Knights but eventually gives in. As they take her away, I am suddenly reminded of something from my brutal past.
The guards taking Erza away.
Her scared smile. She's trying to be brave for us, for me. "Just like you said, Jellal. Th-th-there's nothing to worry about!"
It's hard to be convinced that the girl that you like has nothing to worry about when she's literally trembling with fear and winds up losing an eye due to her torture.
I come back to the future. Erza's got that smile on her face as she watches us run away.
I see her mouth something. I think it is "Goodbye."
So, how'd you like it? It's hard to write from these people's perspectives! Sorry if they were a little OOC…
Next chapter's coming up soon! Stay tuned!
