Chapter #2 - Kuro, Shiro, and Kamiko
Gray's POV
I quickly ran up the stairs to the infirmary door. I needed to warn the girls about the people that had showed up at the door of the guild. "There are some people here looking for a runaway girl!" I said as I burst through the door. Lucy eyes widened in fear as she ran over to me.
"Gray we can't give her to them! Look at her… she was obviously being held against her will." As Lucy spoke I looked at the girl that was laying in the bed. I was shocked when I saw the bruises around her wrists.
"I know Lucy and that's why I need you and Erza to stay up here incase they try to get upstairs. Mira can you come with me to talk to these people?" I said as I started to leave the room.
"Yeah I am coming Gray." Mira chimed as she hurried down the stairs behind me. As we arrived downstairs we walked over to the table where the mysterious people were sitting. Mira asked them if they had wanted anything to drink and two of them ordered beers. I took a good look at them. There were three people, two guys and one girl. One guy had long jet-black hair. His eyes were black and he wore a long coal colored cloak. The second guy was a complete opposite. He had snow white hair and glowing white eyes. He wore a cloak that was as white as his hair. The girl was more normal looking with dirty blond hair. Her eyes were blue and she wore skinny jeans and a tube top that showed off her curves. She didn't look older than 16 years old. I guess my eyes lingered on the girl a little too long because I heard Juvia whisper 'Love rival.' behind me.
"Excuse me... " The man in black grunted, "Can you stop making eyes at our girl."
"Yeah! She is Kuro and my chattel if you know what I mean." The man in white said and I went red. These three had a weird relationship going on between them. It now made sense why the girl seemed to be constantly watching the two men.
"Oh Shiro can't we just stay on task?" The man seemingly named Kuro said with a playful voice that slightly creeped me out.
"Guys! We can do whatever you want later we need to find the girl!" The girl yelled but then had a look of regret on her face. I knew that she probably was going to get chastised later.
"Shut up Kamiko!" Shiro yelled causing many people in the guild turn and look and the young girl named Kamiko to shrink back into her chair.
"Why are you named Kamiko?" Natsu asked and I sighed. I knew by the way she squirmed in her chair that she didn't like the question.
"She belonged to some guild that our boss worked with. She's named that because she was the best child in her generation and that is why she is our babe." Kuro explained.
"Yeah only the first, second, and third girls get to become molls." Shiro laughed and Kamiko looked down in sadness,
"We got awarded this one for making the boss some good money." Kuro said as he took a long drink from his beer. I frowned as I realized that these men were from a dark guild. They really weren't trying to hide it either. I knew before that we shouldn't give the girl back but now I knew that we definitely couldn't let her go back to these men.
"Well let's get to what we came here from." Shiro said as he became more serious looking, "A little girl ran away from our guild and the boss is really worried about her." The man tried to lie but I saw right through him.
"Sorry but we haven't seen any little girls around here except for our member Wendy." I lied and from the look on Kuro's and Shiro's faced they believed me. They said nothing more but paid Mira for the beers, got up, and left, dragging Kamiko along with them.
I was sitting up in the infirmary with Mira and Erza. Lucy had gone with Natsu back to his house. I looked at the small girl who was now wearing a simple white dress that Mira kept in the infirmary incase of emergencies.
"Gray… Do you know her from anywhere?" Mira asked after what seemed like never ending silence.
"No." I answered before continuing, "I want to know why she looks like me…"
I watched as Mira went to change the bandages on the girl's arms. She looked so small and fragile. I wondered if she knew any magic and if she was actually trying to come to the guild. After a while Erza stood up and walked over to me.
"Gray I told you about how I found her right?" She asked in a serious tone.
"Yeah... What about it?" I asked confused as to why she would ask that.
"Well when I ran over to her I couldn't understand what she was saying since she could only get parts of words out… I didn't realize what I heard at first but I figured it out earlier. The last thing she said was 'uster' and I think what she was saying was 'Fullbuster,' your last name" When she finished explaining all I could do was stand there in shock. I didn't have much time to think about what she had said before I heard the girl sit up. When she saw me her confused look turned to one of absolute terror.
She looked right into my eyes and with a shaky voice asked me a question "Are you… Gray Fullbuster?"
