Which One?
*cough* I've changed my writing format! I hate the fact that once I get a story to like, a few chapters,
I'm ready to quit it. Might as well do one-shots for the rest of my life. I accept flames! Well, not literally,
but you know what I mean. Fairytail belongs to Hiro Mashima.
*cough* Also, thanks to all 400 (somewhere around there) of you who viewed my story! Especially the ones
who reviewed. MWUAH!
"You just HAD to blab to Erza, didn't you?" yelled Gray.
Natsu spat back at him in reply. "I DIDN'T BLAB, YOU IDIOT!"
"THEN WHY WERE YOU WITH ERZA?"
"BECAUSE SHE CAUGHT ME WHEN I WENT OUT!"
It was an all-out war between Natsu and Gray in the dorm room.
"Christ, I need my sleep!" complained Loke, sitting up on his bunk.
Jellal was carefully observing the fight as an equal-sided referee.
Natsu snorted. "Yeah, your beauty sleep. Wear some pretty pink earmuffs."
Muttering savagely under his breath, Loke lay face-down on the mattress
and muffled the yells with a pillow on his head. Jellal span around on the chair,
thought for awhile, and yelled loudly.
"STOP! Your amazing referee Jellal has come to a decision!"
"Amazing, yeahhh right." scoffed Gray.
"Jellal says.. SHUT THE **** UP AND GO TO SLEEP!" screamed the blue-haired boy.
"I'M GONNA GET ******* EYEBAGS SO SHUT THE HELL UP!"
"You're the one making noise screaming," pin-pointed Natsu.
"DON'T YOU SCREAM ME OR I'LL MAKE SURE YOU WAKE UP UNDERWATER!
"WELL I'LL MAKE SURE YOU'LL WAKE UP WITH THE SCREAM ON THE CEILING!"
"I'D LIKE TO SEE YOU TRY!"
"SHUT UP YOU IDIOTS. ERZA'S DORM IS REALLY NEAR!"
In a huff all three boys flumped their selves onto their respective beds and soon started
snoring. "That's nice," murmured Loke.
"SHUT UP!"
"SHUT UP!"
"SHUT UP!"
Lucy stared down at the dreary thick textbook.
English. Who needed it anyway? Not her, for sure.
"Ahem. Mr. Fabercastle, please take a seat. Punctuality is key." frowned the teacher.
Natsu, who was immediately in front of the teacher's desk, snickered.
After three weeks of teaching this sole class alone, the supply teacher still couldn't remember
all their names. And after three weeks, he was half-way to living hell.
She looked up to see Gray. Gray Fullbuster. Not Fabercastle.
Cana guffawed loudly and overturned her hidden glass of whiskey.
"Ah shit."
The english teacher frowned even more. "I'll have to confiscate that."
Cana hiccuped and grinned lazily.
"Not if I can help it, shitlord." she replied, and polished off the rest of the alcohol.
"Why am I stuck with you guys?! DETENTION, CANA ALBALONEY! AND.." the frustrated adult
glanced outside the door. "PRINCIPAL! I RESIGN!"
He ran out of the classroom screaming.
"Woah, five minutes into class and the supply teacher runs out screaming like a little girl." Gray raised
his eyebrows. Cana cheered and led the rebellious class into whooping and chanting.
"Welcome to living hell," muttered Lucy.
"I'd pick english over this crap any day."
The principal stuck his head through the doorway. "AHEM."
A few heads turned to the door and saw nothing.
"DOWN HERE MAGGOTS!"
Lucy walked down the isle to the door but saw nobody.
"I'M BY YOUR THIGHS!"
She looked down and screamed. "PERVERT! PERVERT!"
Mirajane cheered and started chanting it too. "PERVERT! PERVERT! PERVERT!"
"This two hour class has been cancelled." screamed the red-faced man.
He slammed the door and started crying.
"WE MADE THE PRINCIPAL CRY! WE MADE THE PRINCIPAL CRY!" screamed the students, doing a war dance
and screaming at the top of their lungs.
The door flung open. "WE ARE NOT BARBARIANS. WE DON'T DO TRIBE DANCES!" screamed Erza.
By now the whole classroom was a mess with streak of soot running up one wall, and there
was a fire in the rubbish bin. The students were actually dancing around the fire.
"IT'S ERZA, THE QUEEN OF THE SAVAGES!" squealed one of the bolder pupils.
A frightening silence as the red-haired beauty's face darkened.
"I actually like that title." smiled Erza.
"Aliens have taken over the school." gasped the blonde.
Erza and the other pupils started chanting war cries and dancing around the wastepaper-bin fire.
"WE HAVE ERZA ON OUR SIDE, WE MADE THE PRINCIPAL CRY!"
"Hey, why don't we make a club thing?" piped up Laki, a purple-haired rebellion student.
"Club sounds lame, how 'bout a gang!" yelled back some other kid.
"A gang sounds cool." agreed Cana, adding more paper to the fire.
"Let's name it Fairy Tails," declared Erza.
You could have heard a pin drop, or an ant sneeze. You could tell nobody really liked the name,
but nobody dared to speak up to the almighty she-warrior.
"Fairy Tails it is." Natsu shrugged.
"The Fairy Rebels," laughed a girl.
"And to prove how far we dare to go," Laki sneakily smiled, then she held up a wooden stamp.
"We'll brand this on our skin with the fire."
There was a shocked silence.
"Consider it as an orientation. Those who refuse to do it, aren't true rebels." spoke up Gray.
"If you think you're so brave, you'll be the first one to do it." jeered Natsu.
"Fine, do me first," declared the other boy with a bit of a swagger.
Gray threw off his shirt, tie, and pants. He stood shivering in only his boxers.
Natsu cleared his throat. "Er.. Gray. You don't need to strip down. Laki was going to brand you on your arm."
The latter turned red, but still shot back a reply. "HOW THE HELL WAS I SUPPOSED TO KNOW?"
The classroom soon turned into an ear for screams of pain and agony.
After a few minutes, everybody was happily examining their new 'tattoos'.
"Lucy, aren't you going to get branded?" asked a dismayed Gray.
"No way," replied the blonde.
"You are," scowled Natsu, rubbing his 'tattoo'.
"No! It hurts! No, no, no way I'm EVER going to do that!" exclaimed the girl.
"COME HERE!" Natsu grabbed her wrist and dragged her to the fire.
"Noooooooooooo!" screamed Lucy. "I'M NOT A REBEL!"
"Wellll, it just looks like you're gonna be one!" laughed Natsu.
Gray ran over and punched Natsu in the gut. "Enoughs enough, if she doesn't want to do it." he shrugged.
"Bas-tard.." choked the salmon-haired boy with a dribble of blood making it's way out of his mouth.
He fainted. "BRAND THE BLONDE! BRAND THE BLONDE!" screamed Laki.
"SHIT SHIT SHIT SHIT!" yelled Lucy. The other students advanced on her in a circle, enclosing her in a trapped
corner. Gray ran in and beat the hell out of the student with the brand.
"LUCY, QUIICK!" He grabbed her arm tightly and jolted out of the hooligan classroom.
Lucy and Gray ran as far as possible from the crazy classroom.
"Thanks." panted Lucy. "For, um, saving me from that mob." she blushed.
"One more block to go," replied Gray cheerfully. "And no problem,"
On the inside, Gray felt happy. More than happy. Elated to get alone time with her.
"One more block to where?" asked Lucy, puzzled.
"And where the heck are you taking me? This school is way to big," sighed Lucy.
"Nah, don't feel bad. I'm in my third year and I still don't know half of it," said the boy proudly.
"Wait, your in your THIRD year but your the same age as me?"
"Skipped."
"It's pretty obvious, but that'd mean you're really, really smart!"
Eek. This conversation was not going where it was supposed to. Time to change the subject!
"You have.. um.. really pretty eyes." stuttered Gray.
The girl turned beetroot red and avoided his gaze. "Thanks."
"Um.. here we are. My special place." Gray announced.
Lucy looked up to see a small but serene patch of garden, with one cobblestone bench,
a small man-made raised pond with lily pads, and hundreds of flowers.
It was overwhelming, to be honest.
"It's pretty," beamed Lucy.
"Want to sit?" said Gray casually.
"Er.. it's kind of small."
"It's okay, I'll scoot over."
Lucy laughed and sat down.
They spent a few quiet minutes just admiring the scenery.
"Why do you call this your special place? Brought your first girlfriend here, huh?" teased Lucy.
Gray chuckled. "Wait- NO. I've never had a girlfriend before,"
"And I call this my special place because nobody knows about it except for me and you," he emitted
a proud-ish aura again.
Gray pointed at the hedge on the left of them, where they entered through a small hole.
"Be sure to cover it up when you go and don't show anyone else this place,"
"Though you're welcome to come back," he added hastily.
"Sure," replied Lucy dreamily.
The bell rang for a minute.
"We should get back to class," sighed Lucy. "But it was fun."
The boy's heart screamed with joy and went up to his Adam's apple.
"Thanks again.. for saving me." she blushed and smiled.
Then she bent over and kissed Gray. On the mouth.
"See ya," she said, then left.
Gray sat there, dazed and happy. He was flying through the galaxy, picking exotic flowers
and twirling and there were bunnies and roses and elves which helped him
gather ribbons and puffs of clouds...
"How the hell the that shit get into my head?" muttered Gray as he snapped out of it.
"You'd better not show that to anyone else," he told off his brain.
And then he started to happily skip off to class... but he stopped in time before
anybody noticed what a dainty girl he was being.
Small kiss, small token of hope!
Maybe a NaLu moment next chapter.
My chapters will probably update once a month.
& I'm sorry for the short chapter.
