"The only way to lift the curse was..."
A dark atmosphere filled the guild hall. We were all dreading to hear what Master's words could be.
Everyone in the guild silently waited for his continuation.
"was..." as Master hesitated to continue
"was..."
"Oh come on! Spit it out already!" as Laxus softly landed his fist in his head
"was not yet discovered." as he looked down and felt ashamed
We all fell from our knees as we heard Master's revelation
Droy continued to share the information they got from Mizuki "He said, there was a way to prevent this, but it wasn't discovered yet as this spell hasn't failed at all. Nobody were recorded free from this curse."
The whole guild was in the moment of silence. Nobody could ever dare to talk to me or look at me straight in the eyes.
"WAIT!" as Levy stopped my tears from falling
"It wasn't stated in the book but it says here that the way to repel the curse got something to do with the magician's magic. He needs to be in physical touch with similar power, I'm not sure but I just got those from the codes I just decoded found in the notes of this book. So in that case, if it was Natsu's magic he forgot, he could simply be attacked by a fire mage or a dragon-slayer and he could have remembered it, however this case is different, it's a person that was forgotten so," as Levy took a breath from saying too much
"if Lucy attacks Natsu he'll be alright?" as Gray finished Levy's supposed sentences
"I'll attack him, no need for Lucy! Gihihih! You're dead salamander!" as Gajeel cut short the conversation and swiftly ran towards Natsu
"Stop Gajeel you idiot!" Levy pushed him back, "No, he doesn't need to be attacked, Lu-chan just needs to "
"KYAA!" as Juvia stopped Levy from explaining
"I can't believe it! Lucy will need to kiss Natsu?! Gray-sama! Let's find that mage! Gray-sama!?" Juvia then clinged herself to Gray who was now stopping her from melting her own body
The guild turned rowdy as everyone thought of this as true
"Macao! Pay up! See?! I told you Natsu will get to kiss a girl! Aahahahah!" as Wakaba extended his big hands asking for his money from winning the bet
"We-lll well,, that's nice... I-I hope you'll live a good married life L-lucy and Nat-natsu!" as Erza blushed extremely stuttering her conveyed words
"I bet she's thinking of looking for that mage with Jellal too?! She llllikes him!" as Happy flew in the air from Erza's kick with her face redder than any reds before
"Ain't that nice Lucy?!" Cana hiccuped as she continued "You didn't get boyfriends but you're having you're first kiss?" *hiccup
"I didn't even had mine yet Lucy you brat!" as she teased following one gulp with the alcohol mug she's been carrying ever since her first appearance
"I'm just gonna cover my eyes Lucy-san!" as Wendy gently said with Charle, Lisanna and Mira beside her
"Yeah, it would be rated PG Wendy!" as the rest of the girls teased
"AS IF I'M GONNA DO IT? I'M SURE THERE'S ANOTHER WAY!" I didn't want to do it at all.
I know I liked Natsu more than friends but I value our friendship more. I couldn't do it to him, is what I thought.
"Listen everyone! No! Lu-chan doesn't need to do such stupid actions? She just needed touch him that's all and the curse will be lifted, though not guaranteed"
"What? No! The money I just won!?" as Macao now grinning widely to Wakaba claiming his money back for their bet isn't over yet
"How boring?" as Juvia whined pouting her lips disappointed
"Well, it's worth a try!" as Erza and others carried me closer to Natsu.
They all heaved-ho as they carried me across the room with six of them, almost felt like they were the seven dwarfs, only the seventh dwarf was me
"Wait! You don't have to bring me like this! I can walk by myself!" as I desperately tried to be heard
Everyone was convinced and now congratulating Levy for solving the mystery prompting for another celebration
I felt relieved from the fact this case could be solved.
I have finally reached Natsu who was tied up in a chair snoring.
"Natsu" as I called out his name and touched his arms against mine
"We can't tell if he's remembered you or not? He's still asleep?" Master intervened everyone from celebrating
"I'll wake him up!" as Master prepared to smack his idiotic face against the closest table
Natsu slowly woke up from all the commotion going on,
"Happy? Let's go home?" as he said with his eyes half open
He then saw me in front of him and finally my tears came rolling down
For I knew that he still doesn't recognize my scent.
