Chapter 2: The Mission
The next day…
Happy's POV
I was dreaming about fish and drooling in my sleep (author: aww 33) before the alarm clock rang. Ring-ringggg! It screeched. So it's 8:50, huh? I think, sleepily, but oh well, got 5 minutes to spare. I pressed the snooze button and thought to myself, just 5 more minutes… And now, its 9:15! Oh shit, Laxus and team will for sure kill us! I think, imagining the slaughter of me and Lucy. (author: yep, Happy just cussed, get over it)
I screamed to Lucy: "Lushy! Wake up! We'll be late for the mission!" I scream. With that sleepy Lucy bolted up from her bed and hurried to her bathroom to get ready. Another time, I would've immediately laughed at her, but nows not that time. The next 15 minutes are spent bizarrely, with Lucy trying to get ready and me helping her to pack. Finally, we rush out the door, and to the Magnolia train station.
Lucy's POV.
Phew, we made it! I think as I see the train station's sign, with the Thunder God Tribe. "Well, you guys made it. Didn't think you would. Come." Laxus say dryly. We entered the train, and me and Happy sat across the window to the left. Thank Mavis we're not late, or else they would've murdered us mercilessly I think. "Hey Blondie, stop daydreaming. I know I'm hot and all, but now is not the time." Laxus say to me, smirking. I then realize that I was staring at him the whole time, making me blush in embarrassment. "So what's the mission?" I ask, to change the topic. "See for yourself" Laxus said, handing it to me.
I quickly scan over the paper. My eyes nearly popped out, when I realize that we are suppose to be the bodyguards of that perverted son of a bitch, Duke Sawarr Junelle, who tried to grope my boobs once in a supposed "family-to-family-bonding" meeting that I attended to with my father, before I ran away from home. Apparently, that frickin' bastard will carry his valuable family heirloom with him to a merchant, for whatever shitty reason. That guy can rot for all I care. The reward is 1,000,000,000,000 jewels (author: for some reason). Well, the reward better be worth it. I think bitterly, while gritting my teeth angrily. What I didn't notice was that I had formed a dark, creepy aura around me, which was alarming the passengers of the train, and that my team was staring at me the whole time.
Bickslow's POV
Wow, Cheerleader looks pretty angry. I wonder what's gonna happen in the mission…
Freed's POV
Ms. Lucy's aura seems demonic, maybe even more than that of my dear Mira (author: that's right readers! There will be slight MiraxFreed in this fanfic!) I suppose Natsu and Gray were not lying. I must remember to never anger her.
Evergreen's POV
Gosh, Lucy, what's wrong with the mission? We just have to escort some rich geezer and get the reward. It looks like she hate the duke Sawa-whatever-the-hell-his-name-is for life. Maybe he is a pervert who likes to grope big chested women's boob. (author: Evergreen, you have no idea how right you are). Can't let him grope mine's then. Only my manly boyfriend can, who will be Elf—what the heck am I thinking? :O
Laxus' Pov
Heh, Blondie looks pissed. XD
Happy's POV
Crap, that duke we're suppose to escort was her fiancée! Uh, I hope, he doesn't do anything perverted to her in the mission…
Narrator's POV
And so the rest of the train ride was spent in silence. The team went to the client's house, got some info about the mission, and left.
(Since I am so lazy, I will give you the important details of it)
*The duke tried groping Evergreen's breasts before he saw Lucy. Evergreen swatted him away with her fan
*The duke repeatedly tried to harass Lucy, who got save the entire time by Laxus, who was glaring at the duke
*This of course did not go unnoticed by the rest of the Thunder God Tribe, who were sending knowing smiles and smirks to one another. Happy and Bickslow tongue-rolled "He likes her!" to Laxus and Lucy's face, which they both denied. (Let's just say Happy taugh him how to tongue-roll)
After the mission…
Lucy's POV
Well, it wasn't as bad as I thought, I think absent-mindedly. Laxus was there to save me from that ugly duke's hentai touches. And I thanked him the train ride home. But for some reason, he was blushing? Nah, must be my imagination. As if he would blush because of me.
Sighh… I wonder how Team Natsu is doing without me… do they regret ditching me? Probably not, since they were the ones who kicked me out. Can't be helped, at least I'm not all alone…
Laxus' POV
Bahh! Why the f was I blushing. Even the others noticed! I cussed to myself inwardly. Freaking Happy and Bickslow, don't go rubbing it to my face, dammit!
Angel Laxus: Then just admit you like her!
Laxus: do I, really?
Devil Laxus: No, of couse not. No way in hell would that happen.
Angel Laxus: Exactly, devil-self. This is earthland not hell, so it is possible.
Devil me starts sulking in the corner somewhere, while me and Angel me continue the conversation…
Angel Laxus:Yes, you like her.
Laxus: How?
Angel Laxus: Do you feel funny near her? Do your senses get more accurate near her? Do you feel possessive around her?
Laxus: Yea I do. But how do this relate to me liking her?
Angel Laxus: Your dragon senses are telling you that she's your mate.
Laxus: Oh…
Angel Laxus: So there's your answer. I'll be going now.
Angel Laxus and Devil Laxus disappeared from his shoulders.
Great, what the hell is wrong with me? I even talked to myself to get my answer. Mavis, you really are something… I think slumping over my couch in my living room
Now how the heck do I confess to her?!
Author: I know this is probably crappier than my first chapter, so please PM me or whatever to tell me about your opinion. Thank u!
