Reuniting Summer and Autumn
Chapter 4 - I shall grant you knowledge!
I have gotten sick of school so much... It is interfering with my mind... My mojo... My soul... My desires... I DESIRE TO WRITE...
This hear is my last disclaimer for this story... Not the end of the story... Just the end of the disclaimers...
NATURESSHADOWS SAYS:
PEACE GUYS I DO NOT, I REPEAT I DO NOT OWN THIS MANGA/ANIME I OWN THE IDEA OF THE STORY... BUT NOT THE CHARACTERS APART FROM AKI (she is mine, AND MINE ALONE)... AGAIN ONE MORE TIME I DO NOT OWN THE CHARACTERS, THEY BELONG TO HIRO MASHIMA THE WONDERFUL TROLL OF FAIRY TAIL...
"I-I can't do that Lucy-san!"
"Huh why not?" Lucy asked, shocked that Wendy wasn't even gonna try and help Natsu.
"She can't do anything Bunny Girl… I-it he's own fault for…" Gajeel begun, but he found himself, biting his tongue; unable to say anything more.
"Ha ha ha, you people are so pathetic. Oh and Gajeel, it won't be fun for me anymore… It won't be fun if you give them clues to what's going on" Aki said whilst licking her lips.
"Fuck you, Flaming Empress 'Hell'…" Gajeel screamed.
"Ha ha ha, so you know my Nick Name?" Aki asked, tilting her head in the side, in a cute way.
"Of coarse I know you, Natsu told us everything…" Gajeel stated sadly, looking over at the Pink Haired Idiot.
"What, he told you everything, but that's… That's impossible, if your telling the truth, then Natsu should be dead." Aki yelled with tears in her eyes.
"Well, me and Wendy are Dragonslayers... Aki, we know what's going on better than anyone; apart form Natsu, of coarse." Gajeel stated locking his eyes on the girl. His eyes had shown a tinge of pity, pity for her.
"So what, you're going to tell the others what happened aren't…" Aki started by Wendy interrupted.
"No, Natsu said that you deserved a second chance. But if you dare try anything funny, I wont hesitated to kill you Aki" Wendy interrupted, shocking Gray, Lucy and Erza. They never would have thought that Wendy could be so forceful and scary.
"Wh-What but why would Natsu do that, I mean doesn't he still hate me!" Aki screamed.
"I-I d-d-don't ha-hate you Aki. I could n-never h-hate you, e-e-even if you killed me… I w-wouldn't hate you!" Natsu whispered weakly, before finally passing out.
"Why" Aki cried.
"Why, do you still care… After everything I did to you, why don't you despise me." Aki screamed as tears fell from her eyes.
"He can't hate, it is not in his Nature. Also the act he put on for the guild was just so he didn't have to face you personally. So Aki would you please come for a walk with me and Gajeel?" Wendy asked, she wanted to hear what happened from Aki's Point of View.
Gajeel just grumbled out "Yeah Aki, you come for a walk with us. Oh yeah, Gray, Erza and Lucy you guys take Natsu back to his house. He's gonna need some rest."
"We'll meet up with you later" Wendy whispered.
"R-right," Erza stuttered, she had never expected something like this to happen.
Gray picked Natsu up, bridal style. He was really pale, too pale…
At Natsu's house
"Natsu, Natsu wake up!" Gray screamed, as he shock Natsu unconscious body; side to side.
"Gray, that's not going to work! He's exhausted…" Erza yelled.
"But…" Gray whispered, oblivious to what was happening around him.
"Mhmmm"
"Hey guys-" Lucy started but was cut off by...
"No 'buts' Gray, he needs rest." Erza continued with her conversation, ignoring Lucy completely.
"Fine then. I just wanted to say that we should ask him if he's ok; seeing as he 'is' the one who's hurt!" Gray stated flatly.
"Umm guys-" Lucy tried again, only to be interrupted…
"What do you want Lucy, can't you see I'm having a conversation." Erza and Gray yell together.
The room when silent for 1 second, 2 seconds then...
"Ha ha ha"
A weak laugher then fills the awkward silence.
"Natsu your awake!" Erza and Gray yell.
"Ha ha ha, w-well yeah…" Natsu whispers tiredly.
"Why didn't you say something Lucy?" Erza asked.
"I tried, but you guys wouldn't listen" Lucy mumbled to herself.
With Gajeel and Wendy
"So Aki, why did you do all this?" Gajeel asked flatly. He wasn't really interested in why but he needed information so that the matter could be resolved.
"I was afraid, afraid that he would tell the guild and I wouldn't be accepted. This was my last chance, I came here to survive!" Aki pitifully answered.
"But why did you do that to him? He did nothing to you…" Wendy cried out.
"Nothing! If I recall correctly he should have told you everything… You know everything and yet you can say he has done nothing to harm me!" Aki screeched.
"Aki, I can admit that Natsu has done some wrong but you yourself know you have caused more harm to him then he you,"Wendy said looking to the ground in sadness.
At Natsu's House
"Natsu can you explain what happened back there? Why did you collapse? Why was Aki acting so weird? What where Gajeel and Wendy talking about? And why did you not tell us about her sooner?" Lucy yelled her questions as fast as she could... She wanted answers and she wanted them now.
"Umm, one question at a time please," Natsu stated...
"Fine then... What just happened?" Lucy asked...
"Well I was around her too long... When Gajeel and Wendy showed up she felt threatened... I guess she got mad because of she's not good at controlling her emotions and she started to unconsciously use her magic! She then started to get upset and that's when her magic lashed out at me because I was the one that was causing her emotions to run wild. Well at least that's what I think." Natsu explained... Unbeknownst to him that he explained two question in one paragraph.
"Well then, I guess that makes sense... But why was Aki acting so weird in the first place?" Gray questions.
"Umm, well... I guess you can say I have a little story behind that... I mean I met her before... I'm sorry but I really can't tell you what happened... I promised I wouldn't. I decided I would give her a second chance. It's up to her what she does with it." Natsu mumbled; quite unsure of how to answer the question without braking his so called 'Promise'.
The three mages looked at Natsu with questioning glances. Then finally Erza sighed and spoke in a calm whisper,"Ok, I think that's enough... Natsu you still look pretty tired. Get some rest. We'll talk more in the morning, if that's alright with you?"
"Yeah, that's fine. But..." Natsu mumbled. Even he had trouble hearing the last part.
"What was that?" Erza inquired.
"I asked; If you don't mind, well could you guys stay the night here. I mean you don't have to, but, well. I just-"
Erza lifted her hand in a motion that spoke 'say no more'. Then she smiled and glared over at Lucy and Gray... They both took a few steps back, gaining some distance from the beastly glare of Titania. Gray looked over at me stuttered out a, "O-of course we'll s-s-stay the night Natsu."
I smiled. And the next thing I remember is falling into another deep sleep.
