DISCLAIMER: I do not own Fairy Tail! Hiro Mashima does!
Wendy stood, watching Porlyusica tend to Miyako. Her eyes were still tightly closed, so Wendy and Porlyusica were mixing up some salves that would hopefully help.
"Porlyusica?" Wendy tentatively asked. "Do you think Ya...will ever wake up?"
The older woman smiled slightly, "She is already awake, just is in too much pain." She said, her hands never slowing in their mixing.
"Oh..." Wendy said.
The Infirmary lapsed into silence again.
Suddenly, the door slammed open, making Wendy and Porlyusica's hair stand on end, like bottle brushes, with fright.
Porlyusica's hand somehow found her usual broom, and she began to attack the intruder. "Get out!" She yelled.
The person fended off the flying broom with practiced ease. "I'm sorry." A deep voice said.
Wendy looked up from her work, recognizing the voice. "Hey Jellal." She said, blandly.
The wizard, in the garb of Mystogan, chuckled dryly. "Hello again, Wendy." He said. "How is the patent?" Jellal asked.
"As well as can be expected." Porlyusica snapped. "Now, Get Out! We don't need any of you humans cluttering up the place!"
Jellal sighed, so quietly that only Wendy could hear. "Of course. I'll be going..." He said, turning to leave.
"Mystogan..." A soft voice sighed.
Everyone in hearing range froze. Porlyusica looked over at the bed, where Miyako was laying. Her eyes were open.
Porlyusica began to bustle. She literally swept Jellal out the door, managed to find some bandages, and despair over Wendy's healing salve in the space of about five seconds. "Good. Your eyes are open. Now I can start treatment."
"Don't need treatment." Miyako muttered. "Need the...pink lacrama...in my jacket."
Porlyusica growled. "You are in no condition to be performing magic young lady! Now stay put!"
But, somehow, Miyako managed to evade Porlyusica, and get out of bed. "Need...my...lacrama..." She muttered, before fainting.
-sometime later-
Lucy sat by Miyako's bedside. She felt a strange pulling in the center of her gut toward the young woman, which is why she volunteered for 'bedside watch' so many times.
With Miyako still being asleep, Lucy felt it was safe to nose around in her clothes. She stood quietly, avoiding the squeaking board, and tiptoed toward Miyako's bundle of clothes. There was a huge, padded, jacket on top. Lucy slowly unfolded the front, and the first thing, or rather things, that met her eyes, were about a dozen or so lacramas. Each and every one of them were a different dark color, but they all had a dark spot floating in the direct center. "It's not polite to nose into other people's stuff." A soft, but rough voice said.
Lucy whirled, her cheeks burning. "Sorry!" She said, her cheeks burning like Natsu's fire.
The young woman, who was leaning on her elbow, gave Lucy a very slight smile. Barely more then a quirk at the corner of the mouth. "It's all right. Could you pass me the pink one?"
Lucy glanced down at the collection of lacramas, her eyes immediately seeing the one she was looking for. But, she asked anyway. "This one?"
"Yes." Miyako said, holding out a hand. Into which, Lucy placed the lacrama.
Miyako's fingers closed around the bit of crystal, and a spell circle appeared above her closed fist. A second later, the circle vanished, and the black marks on her face began to recede. "There. I should be good for a little while longer..." She muttered. The young woman flipped the blankets off herself and stood.
That's when 'Mother Lucy' kicked in. "You should still be resting!" She said, in alarm. "All your wounds aren't healed yet!"
Miyako pointed to a scar where a particularly nasty gash used to be. "I'm perfectly fine. You are the one who should be getting some rest."
"What?" Lucy said, giving the young woman a blank look.
"You're pregnant," Miyako said. "With Natsu's child."
And with those words, the now-fully-dressed wizard, left the room.
'Pregnant...With Natsu's child...'
Ha! Got to the next chapter done!
And, LOOK! I has a cover now! *dances* I'll be making more for the rest of my stories as the mood hits me! I promise!
Now! Onto the reviews!
onyx-sora(guest): Thank you, and I didn't realize that, that section got so flowery until you mentioned it...Thanks.
And, in regards to the OP-ness, her power is proportionate to the amount of demons she 'slays', or rather captures in lacramas. She tends to avoid the more humanoid ones, like the ones on Galuna Island, and focus mainly on the corrupt ones, like Deliora. She wanted Deliora's soul, because that would provide a major boost to her magic power, but he's dead now.
And, I'll try not to make Miyako a Sue. If I do, feel free to call me out.
Well! That's it for the reviews!
Let me know how I'm doing, and any questions that you all might have, in a review!
{NOTE: I'm not planning on putting in any other OCs besides my own, so please don't ask.}
