Natsu's Sacrifice
I do not own Fairy Tail ;) And with that being said; please enjoy! :)
A little bite of what happened last time...
"Get back Lucy. I will protect you. I will protect you, no matter what! So please Lucy... Get back... I don't want to see you hurt anymore" Natsu looked away, his head down, and his pink hair overshadowing his eyes.
"Oh what a lovely moment, but you're fighting me. Never take your eyes off your opponent!" bellowed the man. "But as if you would ever beat someone like me! A former wizard of the 10 Great Saints! The Great Hunter! And without further notice, he lunged at them with all his might.
The only thing that Lucy had time for was to close her eyes and brace for what was going to happen to them. Them. Lucy shot her eyes open and looked for Natsu. Maybe she could push him away in time, maybe... She didn't even have time to think before she felt strong and secure arms scoop her up and hug her.
"Natsu..."Lucy managed to whisper while looking up at him. And then she realized. Natsu was putting himself in front of her, protecting her against the big ball of eternal darkness that was hurtling towards them. They only had precious seconds left, and in that time, Natsu managed to put a hand up to her cheek and smile before it happened. She tried wriggling free of his grasp, but he knew that she was thinking of doing the same thing, of protecting him, and that only made him hold onto her tighter.
A loud bang sounded throughout the whole cave looking arena, and everything went black. She couldn't see a thing, the only thing that was holding her conscious, was the strong arms enveloping her.
"NATSUU!" She screamed with all her might. Even though only few seconds had passed, it seemed like hours. When the normal light returned, a lifeless Natsu was lying in her arms. Lucy was on the brink of tears, as she slowly and carefully laid him down. "Natsu..." She sobbed, "You idiot..." Her whole body quivering with magical power, just waiting to burst out, she stood up with a deadly glare implanted on her face. "You hurt him! And by hurting him, you've hurt Fairy Tail! You're an enemy of Fairy Tail, you bastard!" She raged. As quick as lightning, she withdrew two golden keys from the key holder pocket, and called out Loke and Scorpio.
"Loke! Scorpio! Beat that Hunter guy senseless!" She told them, her voice filled with hatred. They both nodded before setting off in pursuit of their master's enemy. Lucy herself, got a good look at Hunter. Natsu had managed to make a few scratches here and there. Natsu... she thought. I swear... I swear I'll defeat him! With determined eyes, she pulled her whip out of her belt and waited for the whip to turn to it's sparkly blue and gold form. Then she charged with all her willpower and fought alongside her beloved spirits. They all fought well together, with perfect teamwork and precision. But even so, they were getting beaten. This isn't going to end well, she thought, one blow from him had knocked Natsu out. This wasn't going to be easy.
Hunter fired an attack that caused the earth and ceiling to rumble. Bricks and pieces fell onto the ground, and that was when she heard it. She could hear it clearly. The sound of water being rippled by sticks and stones. Aquarius! She sprinted over to the mini lake, and pulled her golden, shiny key out. Oh no. She only had enough power to summon two spirits at once. Not three. Nowhere even close! But she decided to try, she had to! For both Natsu and her's sake.
"I open thee gate! Aquarius!" Seconds passed but nothing happened. Lucy staggered back, and blinked several times. She tried again. And again. And again. It's no use, she thought. I don't have enough magic power, even with my second origin, it isn't enough! She turned around to see Loke and Scorpio fighting hard alongside each other. She had to try her best! She just had to! Suddenly, Hunter hit both her spirits to the side, and they were struggling to get up. While they were fighting to win back their balance, he walked over to Natsu. That caught Lucy off-guard, and she couldn't reach Natsu in time before Hunter kicked Natsu in the stomach sending him flying and landing in the water beside Lucy. "Natsu!" She cried.
