Dead Or Alive

Mini: My iPod's screen is broken :(

Gemi: Already knew that.

Mini: But it's so sad!

Gemi: Good for you.

Mini: WAAAAAH!

Gemi: *slaps Mini* SNAP OUT OF IT!

Mini: *sniff* We... *sniff* Don't own... *sniff* Fairy Tail...


We'll never give up. Because we will always be connected through hope. -Erza Scarlet

~Erza's P.O.V~

I woke up in the morning and felt something heavy around me. I look next to me, and see Jellal. With his arm. Around me. What. The. Hell. I drift back to sleep...

~Jellal's P.O.V~

I wake up and realize something... I was sleep-hugging Erza. Why was I doing something like that?! I quickly pull my arm back and stand up. Thank god she didn't wake up, otherwise I'd be dead now.

The moment I think this, Erza begins to stir. Speak of the Devil, and he may appear. Or... Think of the Angel, and she may stir.

Wait. Did I just call Erza an angel? Well, in my eyes, she is. But in order to be an angel, she would have to die. I don't want her to die. Ever.

Ok... Maybe those thoughts are a bit selfish, but I can't help it! I love her, why would I ever want her to die? Exactly. I wouldn't.

I hear a rustle and turn around to see Erza sitting up and rubbing her eyes.

~Erza's P.O.V~

I wake up to see Jellal sitting up and staring at me. Suddenly, I remember Jellal's arm around me. I blush madly, and look away from Jellal.

"Good morning, Erza." Jellal says from behind me.

"G-Good morning." I say quickly.

To make things worse, I realize that I am alone with Jellal. Just him and me. No one else.

~Jellal's P.O.V~

I look at Erza and realize that her face and hair are almost the same color.

"Are you ok, Erza?" I ask.

"Y-Yeah! Don't you think we should look for Ultear and M-Meredy?" Erza stutters. Why is she stuttering?

"You realize you just said that out loud, right?" WHAT?! DAMMIT! SHUT UP, BRAIN!

"You're still doing it."

"AHH! DAMMIT!"

Erza tackles me and slaps me. Hard. "SHUT UP, BAKA*!" She shouts. "DO YOU WANT PEOPLE TO KNOW WE'RE HERE?!"

Suddenly, a twig snaps.

~Erza's P.O.V~

I hear a twig snap. I turn around to see what caused the sound.

"E-Erza-san...?" I see Wendy standing behind me, with Team Natsu, her face redder than my hair. Then I realize the position Jellal and I are in.

I quickly stand up and dust off the invisible dirt.

"They lllllliiiiiike each other!" Happy exclaims. The next moment, he was soaring to the moon, courtesy of me.

"Well... Uh... Hi." I say nervously to my former teammates.

~Jellal's P.O.V~

I watch as Erza stands up and nervously greets her teammates. Why would she be nervous? They're teammates, after all.

Actually, I didn't want them to come. I mean, Erza and I were alone for the first time!

Suddenly, the blue cat falls out of the sky and plummets to the ground screaming "HE LLLLLIIIIIKES HER!" WHAT IS WITH THESE PEOPLE?!

I turn around and see Erza sweat-dropping. "Jellal... You're thinking out loud again..." I AM?!

"Yes, you are. Stop it."

"DAMMIT!"

Erza throws a sword that narrowly misses my head.

"I TOLD YOU TO SHUT UP!"

"R-Right..."

I look past the scary Erza, and see that Team Natsu is scared half to death.

"E-Erza?" I say, pointing past her.

"WHAT?!" She says angrily.

I point again and she turns around.

"Oh..." Erza begins to calm down.

"So, um, Erza... How are you?" Lucy says awkwardly.

"How do you think I am? I'M A WANTED CRIMINAL!"

Team Natsu flinches at her outburst. And then, everything goes quiet. Not a single sound. Not even the birds.

"Sorry..." Erza says quietly. Team Natsu (And me) stare at her with wide eyes.

"So, mind telling us why you're here?" I say, breaking the tension.

"We came to find Erza-san. We were really worried." Wendy says quietly.

Erza smiles. "Well, as you can see, I'm fine. No need to worry."

"That's good to hear. But minna**, we have to go now." The dark haired one, Gray, I believe, says.

"Yeah... Sorry Erza, we have to go now." Lucy hugs Erza, and turns back to where she came from.

The rest of Team Natsu parts, leaving me alone with Erza again. Should I be scared or relieved? Both, I guess.

As I look around, I realize how long we were talking. It's noon now.

"Well, we should keep moving to avoid the council." I say to Erza. She nods and begins to walk. I follow her.

~Erza's P.O.V~

As we walk, I feel like we're being watched. I point this out to Jellal, and he agrees. Who could it be?

Shortly after, my questions are answered with just two sentences.

"You are surrounded on all sides. Surrender now or face the consequences."

Mini: Be sad.
