Chapter 4
Happy's POV
When I arrive at the guild everyone looks sad, I wonder what I missed.
"aha there you are you were supposed to come home yesterday" Natsu's voice rings out as he grabs me and tickles
"hahahehehehaha stop it that haha tickles, I need to haha find hehe Gajeel" Natsu stops suddenly
"You don't need to speak to him, go speak to Lisanna she's been worried sick" Natsu says shortly. I go and find Lisanna even though I don't want to. I need to ask Gajeel to make the necklace for Lucy
After 10 minutes of being squeezed till my eyes almost pop out I fly away "where are you going" Lisanna calls after me
"I have to tell Lucy I'm back. She'll have been worried" I reply suddenly I notice the silence the entire guild is silent even Cana has stopped drinking "what's going on? Where is Lucy?" I ask
"Lucy left" Natsu responds as he steps towards me
"Why would Lushi leave without saying goodbye? She promised she would never leave me again" I cry
"She ran away after she attacked Lisanna. Gajeel, Lily, Wendy, Juvia and Charle left with her" Natsu replied with hatred in his eyes "They are traitors to the guild"
"Why would Lushi attack Lisanna?" I weep
"To prove she wasn't weak" Natsu roared
"Lushi would never, hurt any of the guild no matter the reason." I Roared back as I flew towards her apartment everything was still there except Lucy, so I curled up in her bed and cried myself to sleep. How could they call her weak? How could they believe she would hurt Lisanna? How could they not go after her? I thought as I drifted off to sleep.
~Time Skip: a few months~
No one's POV
"We've been like this for months, I'm starting to worry about Wendy, it's starting to get too much for her" Lucy mentions whilst looking at the sleeping girl "we've got to take her back to Fairytail, we've been attacked too many times it's too dangerous for her here."
"But they won't be happy that she's back after we left like that" Juvia replied in a worried tone
"We'll just have to send someone back with her" Lucy smiles
Juvia joins in when Lucy points at the man staring off into the distance
"He's been missing Levy since we left, if we make him think he's going to protect Wendy he won't object and Wendy will be safe" Lucy giggles "Gajeel, Lily, Charle come here for a second"
When everyone was settled Lucy started to tell the plan "We are worried about Wendy being here it starting to be too hard for her so Charle we want you to fly her back to Fairytail tonight, however since we are worried the guild might be a bit hostile due to the circumstances we in left we want someone to go with her to keep an eye on her. After some thought Gajeel we want Lily to fly you back with Wendy and Charle to keep an eye on everything, any complaints? No? Good"
"Wait I have a question. What about you guys?" Lily asked
"We will be fine Juvia is a s-class mage and it not like either of us will be alone we have each other" Juvia replies
Soon everyone is getting ready to leave (Lucy and Juvia are going to move on to another site before another attack happens) It took a long time to convince Gajeel, even then he wasn't convinced.
Gajeel's POV
I'll get to see Levy again but do I really want to last time u saw her she was attacking Lucy, she was so mean. Is she still the girl a fell in love with?
*Cough Cough*
I spun around to find Lucy looking at me "umm I want to ask you a favour" she says after an awkward silence
"What sort of favour?" I ask
~time skip an hour~
I know I promised her but I don't know if I can keep it, how can I not hold it against them I joined the guild because they were so accepting and a happy family. What made it easy was how they accepted me and Juvia after all we did, especially to Lucy (I hurt Levy and her team too) but even after I tried to terrify her and attacked her and kidnapped her, I kicked her to see if I'd killed till she coughed up blood she still forgave me and Juvia, we couldn't have made it in Fairytail without her, she's the only reason Juvia was allowed to join(Lucy convinced the master after the tower of paradise that Juvia had changed) and Juvia was the only reason I was allowed in. Without Lucy I never would have been able to apologise to Levy. And now she wants me to forgive them for attacking her
~Flashback~
"Don't hold what they did against them" Lucy spoke quietly
"They attacked you how can you still want me to be nice?" I quizzed
"They were scared they thought I attacked one of them, one they'd already lost once they were scared it would happen again, so promise me you will try to regain you friendships…especially with Levy, she truly cares about you" Lucy smiled
"I promise I'll try" I replied
~Flashback End~
"ARGHH!" Wendy screamed
"Oh, Wendy your awake" Charle squeaks wobbling slightly
"Why are we flying? Where are we going? Where is Juvia and Lucy?" Wendy blurted out, looking a bit scared
"We... We are going back to Fairytail, urm…Lucy and Juvia are carrying on" Gajeel responded guiltily knowing they should have consulted her before they left
"we can't leave them, we need to go back" Wendy Squealed trying to turn Charle around, much to the panic of Charle who was struggling to keep hold of the squirming girl
"We can't they've moved on and we don't know where" Lily replied "We can only go back to Fairytail now"
"It won't be long now" Charle cut in
~Meanwhile Lucy and Juvia were moving to a new place~
No one's POV
"Lucy?" whispered Juvia
"Yes?" Lucy answered, after no response Lucy wondered if she had even heard it
"You do know Juvia won't leave you alone right? Juvia won't let you trick me into leaving like you did with Gajeel" Juvia replied half pleading
"I know. I wouldn't try it on you, I know you miss Gray but it's one thing to trick someone into leaving two people to but to trick you into leaving one is so much harder" Lucy answers honestly
"Juvia doesn't miss Gray. Juvia has moved on" Juvia insists
"Suuure you have Juvia" Lucy comments sarcastically, a small blush appearing on Juvia's face
The girls laugh and talk until the sun starts to set
"We are not going to get to an inn before it gets too dark" Lucy says frowning at the girls surroundings
"Do you think we should make camp here for the night, Juvia thinks it's a little stupid with all the attacks we have had" Juvia responds scowling
"Nowhere else will be better so we may as well" Lucy retorted "and I doubt we will be attacked here"
"Juvia just has a bad feeling that's all" Juvia glared at Lucy "Lucy don't you think we need to actually do something instead of wandering around aimlessly"
"Yes we should probably discuss what to do in the long haul" Lucy replied curling in her sleeping bag and going to sleep but not before whispering a "night" to Juvia
"Night Lucy" Juvia replied slipping into her own sleeping bag and following Lucy into slumber.
~Time skip: the Next Morning at the guild~
Markov's POV
Why am I coming into the guild so early? I'm never in this early. Why do I feel I am needed there now?
I think as I open the heavy doors. What on this Earth could make me feel like I needed to be at the girl at five in the morning?
What is going on? What is that on the floor? Is that Gajeel and Wendy? How did they get here? What happened there clothes are covered with dried
"Master?" I heard a voice called out
Oh it's Lily and Charle
"What's going on here? Where have you guys been?" I ask
"We left with Lucy" Charle replies,
"I know who left but where have you been and where are Lucy and Juvia" I respond
"You weren't told?" Lily quizzes I shake my head
*cough* "we left when Lucy was attacked" Wendy says slowly getting up
When was Lucy attacked? I think to myself think my face gave away my confusion when I notice Wendy carrying on
"After the guild attacked her, they didn't tell you why we left? They accused Lucy of attacking Lisanna and attacked her we were scared they would kill her so we left"
"HOW DARE THEY ATTACK ONE OF MY CHILDREN WITHOUT PROOF" I bellowed "They do not have the power to cast anyone out of the guild without my consent, they need to be punished"
"No" Gajeel interrupted standing up "Lucy wants us to forgive them, you can't mention it"
"She wants them to be forgivien?" I say in disbelief
"Yes, she still cares that's why we were sent back, it was too much of a strain on Wendy and I think she realised I missed Levy so she sent me back as well" Gajeel mentions
"So I have to pretend I don't know or I'm okay with it?" I receive nods in reply
We spent 3 hours talking about what had happened while they were gone before people started milling into the guild and we decide it's time to stop and go down to the bar
The looks of guilt on some faces when the see Gajeel and Wendy have returned, while some show guilt others anger and some even show sadness, I try hard to pretend I'm not disappointed and disgusted in their behaviour but I am
