Chapter 3 – The infirmary

Last chapter: Held up the brass things key and was about to order the thing something when a blast of brilliant light shot through Anya like and arrow and she fell to the floor bleeding and her faced drove white as her sister screamed "A-A-A-A-A-N-N-N-N-N-Y-Y-Y-Y-Y-A-A-A-A-A!".. A shadow wisped around her wrist and closed the gate of the soldier and the key flew away in the hand of a shadow. What just happened?

Now Third person pov

It was cold and damp with sadness in the infirmary. Anya's team had hurried from their battles and it ended up that Dragon Tail forfeited the game making Fairy Tail the winners by default but no one felt like celebrating. Fairy Tail and Dragon Tail were crowded around Anya. Her breathing was heavy and luckily Amy (Dragon Tail's Hurricane Dragon Mage) had healed her. Amy sat next to her best friend's bed her turquoise her covering her teared brown eyes she sat twitching on the bed hoping, praying for Anya to be okay.

Mayla sat with her strawberry blonde hair wrapping around her ears as she playing with a wisp of her locks place over her ear. Her knees wobbled as she gained comfort from her boyfriend, Koran; Koran was tall and had blonde hair and blue eyes the colour of cyan and he wore an open shirt revealing his abs and he wore a pendant of dragon flying around his neck and one that Mayla also wore as a chocker. Korans fangs were as sharp a blades and stood looking worried as his girlfriend wondering if Anya would be okay. Mayla's teal eyes were glazed and looked almost like glass as her expression was that of pure despair.

Everyone was quiet and still a tumble weed passed as a loud bell sounded it was quite and not even a cough was among the pit of silence it was fathomless. Rasping light broke free of the clouds grasp and flooded the room with a cool distasteful glow that resonated a foul feeling like when you done something wrong and have that knot in your stomach. In the dull glow of sun light Anya seemed to wake up wincing in discomfort at the annoying pain in her lower chest. Her eyes were dull and it seemed that there was whites reflecting in those eyes that seemed like a trance. Anya was met with a hug as her sister flooded tears and tightened her grip on her sister until her sister yelped then they parted. Anya's eyes seemed brighter but yet sad as she looked at her hand and twitched her thumb as not to try and reveal her face to the crowd of her friends. She was tired and sad and a pale glass tear fell from her cheeks as the crowd looked confused.

Mayla bent down and comforted her little sister whispering something calming words into her ear and acted more of a mother rather than a sister. Anya smiled at her sister's words and she looked up at the audience gaining a sigh of relief. Anya was okay-ish.

Mayla's Pov

No words could compare to my relief that my youngest sister was okay, Anya being my only biological sister and having and adopted brother and step sister as well as my cousin I felt a huge wave of worry lifted from my shoulders and my grip would not let go of my sister until I was sure that she was all right and that nothing more would hurt her. My grip loosened as she seemed guilty of something and then a tear stained her cheek and I instantly knew something was wrong very wrong.

She smiled giving me only more worry and I said bluntly "Tell me what is wrong with you? I don't want mumbling or long stories or excuses, tell me what is wrong." I wasn't in the mood for any excuses. She looked down at her hands again and twiddled her thumbs and said under her breath "I lost Conquistador's key when I was attacked" She started to cry and kept saying "I am sorry, I am sorry." And she would not stop until I placed my forehead to hers and said "I wasn't your fault." I smiled and cried and gave my sister a grin that could Natsu's and then she seemed calmer and more at ease. I told her to sleep and she did smiling I think she knows that we believe in her my little sister.

Lucy's Pov

Anya now slept and I had my worry gone, but what did the thief want with that certain key as all her others were on her bracelet and mine were on my belt tucked inside my pouch. My chain of thought was broken when to arms were wrapped around my waist. I turned to see Natsu looking at me worried. He buried his nose in the crook of my neck and took a long sniff embedding his scent in mine. My face exploded cherry as he continued to rub his head into my neck. "What are –y-y-o-o-u-u d-doing?" I mumbled trying not to send my blush sky high. He curtly relied with "Don't ever leave me Luce I was so worried about you." He was too close but before I knew it I was facing him our faces only inches apart and I was about to plant my lips on his when.

The door burst down to reveal a very red Sting with Lector on his back as since Sting went on a diet he was still getting used to running. Next to him was Rouge red as well his black hair clasped over his eyes and his cape flooded down his back. Both Sting and Rouge both had terror in their eyes as they suddenly blurted out. "Yukino has been kidnapped!"

What do think happened to Yukino and please review on what you think so far.

The week's question is still the same.

I am all fired up.
