And remember, if you have a request just leave one in the review!

Sick Day

Everybody has something they hate the most, just everyone has something different. For Kera there was just one thing she hated the most above everything else.

It's not being forced out of bed at five in the morning. It's not training for seven hours. Heck it's not even getting beaten up during missions or relieving past memories or nightmares.

No it was something far worse and far more horrible.

Now what would be way worse for Kera than being forced out of the bed at five in the morning?

It's being sick.

It's not the fact that she got sick

Oh no, it was something else that happens when she gets sick


It all started one fateful morning. Kera yawned as she stretched out her arms into the air. She was happy, this time she didn't have a nightmare that haunted her sleep. It was just a peaceful dreamless night. She rubbed her eyes slightly and her vision cleared up.

Throwing her legs over the bed the brunette stood up, but right as she did she felt light headed and her vision clouded up. "What the…" She muttered holding her head, but at the same time noticed how horse her throat felt.

Oh god no! Please don't tell me I'm…

"Achoo!" She sneezed almost tripping over her own two feet. Sick…

"Ugh… great." She mumbled walking to the mirror in her room and saw how she looked like. Besides the bed head she did look sick.

How the hell did she get sick anyway?


Yesterday

"Come on! Punch harder!" Erza yelled at Kera

It was pouring rain outside and both girls were in that rain training. Erza somehow loved training during the rain. So now the brunette was outside in the pouring rain fighting Erza. Her hair and clothes were drenched with water as well as Erza.

Kera roared as she sent a kick towards Erza, but the red head grabbed her foot before twisting it and sending her to the ground. She then pinned Kera to the ground that was soaked and wet. "Not good enough." Erza told her with a smirk.

Kera gritted her teeth before turning the red head over and the two started rolling in the soaked and dirty ground.


"Oh yea…" She remembered their training. She knew it was a bad idea! "Ugh… great… what am I going to do n… achoo!" She sneezed again, this time tripping over the rug on the floor and hitting the ground and knocking her head against her bed.

Kera groaned rubbing her sore head. "What am I going to do? If she finds out I'm sick… oh god… but maybe *sniff* maybe she won't acknowledge I'm not there…"

She looked at her bed before crawling back into it. "Ugh… I don't care… so sick…" She mumbled while covering herself with her blanket again.

Not even a few minutes later did she fall back asleep, only to be awoken by knocking against her door another few minutes later. "Ugh… who is it?" she yelled with a stuffy nose and horse throat.

"Kera?"

She froze. Oh shit… "Uh… yea?"

"Why are you still in bed? Come on." Erza was about to open the door but Kera quickly shouted. "No! Stay out!" She tried to cover that her voice sounded pathetic.

Erza frowned as she looked at the door. "Why?"

"Uh… I'm… I'm not decent! She shouted.

The red head rolled her eyes. "Come on Kera, it's not like I've never seen you like that before." With that she opened the door. Kera quickly covered herself with her blanket.

Erza stepped in and saw it. She sighed. "You're not even out of bed yet!"

"Maybe I want to sleep longer." She grumbled back trying so hard not to sound sick.

The red head shook her head. "This is not acceptable Kera! You're getting out of that bed right now!"

Kera didn't say anything and this irritated her a lot. She walked up to her and immediately pulled at her leg dragging her out of bed. The brunette hit the ground with a thud and groaned.

Erza glanced at her with a frown. "Kera… are you sick?"

"No… achoo!" She sneezed before rubbing her nose which was red. She smiled at Erza innocently.

Erza frowned.


"Hey where's Kera?" Natsu asked as he looked around the guild. The guild was filled with laughter and your usual noise. Natsu was sitting with Lucy and Gray when the Dragon Slayer noticed that their brunette friend was missing.

"Yea… and Erza isn't here yet." Gray commented a bit worried.

Lucy slowly realized this as well. "Did something happen? Because they should be here by now."

Footsteps were heard before the door was roughly opened and everyone saw the familiar red head walk in. What was shocking though was the figure behind her. Kera was being dragged by the red head and she did not look well at all.

Erza threw Kera in front of her and pushed her towards the bar. Kera groaned as she hung her body against the bar.

Gray snickered seeing this. "Oh boy… looks like Kera's sick again."

"Oh this will be fun." Natsu grinned rubbing his hands together.

Lucy was confused. What were they talking about? She glanced over at her two friends and saw that Erza was pulling Kera up and the brunette was fighting with the strength she had. What was going on?

"Mira!" Erza called.

"No! Please no!" Kera whined as she tried to escape but Erza held her firm. "You know this will help you Kera." Erza told her holding her at the bar.

Kera slightly glared at the red head. "This is *sniff* your fault! If you didn't made me *sniff* train in the rain than I wouldn't be sic… achoo!" She sneezed before falling of the chair as she lost her balance.

At that moment Mirajane walked out from the back and up to Erza. "What's wrong? You called?"

Erza pulled Kera up from the ground and made her sit on the chair again. "Kera's sick."

"No I'm not!" Right at that moment she sneezed again. Kera groaned. "I hate my life…" She mumbled.

Mirajane looked extremely worried. "What!? We have to do something against that. Now come on."

Kera pulled herself away from both girls. "Oh no… I am NOT doing this again! You… achoo!" She sneezed again. She shook her head and was about to continue but Erza pushed her to Mira again.

Mira had pulled her behind the bar and started to mix several drinks together. Kera tried to flee again but Erza held her firm. "No!" Kera shouted as Mira finished something that looked very strange and disgusting. "No, I won't *sniff* be your *cough* your…" She couldn't finish her sentence as Mira forced her to drink the liquid.

Kera had to gag as the liquid went down her throat. When she was finished the brunette hit the ground coughing and holding her throat. "God that's so disgusting!"

Mira started another round and Kera's eyes went wide. "No! You will never take me!" She shouted jumping over the bar successfully.

The white haired woman tried to stop her but wasn't quick enough. "Kera! Come back!"

"Oh no you don't!" Erza shouted running after her.

Kera tried to reach the guild doors but the red head pounced on her pinning her to the floor. The brunette struggled to get away, but being sick means she was also very weak. Normally she could get away, but now she couldn't do anything.

She saw Mira walking towards her with another glass of disgusting medicine. "Agh no! Please!" She shouted struggling again but was yet again forced to drink the disgusting liquid.

Lucy wasn't quite sure what she should think. "Wow… she's… she's acting like she's being tortured!"

Gray snorted. "If you're sick and Erza get's you then it is torture. It's always funny seeing what she'll try and do to get out of it."

"What does Mira put in the medicine?" Lucy wondered.

Natsu shuddered. "That's another reason to avoid getting sick. Mira has these strange recipes that are so disgusting. I heard she put's dead frogs in one."

Lucy almost gagged hearing that. "What? That's… that's disgusting!"

"Exactly, so whatever you do, do not get sick! And if you do avoid Mira and Erza." Natsu warned her. Lucy nodded simply putting it in her head to not get sick.

She glanced back at Kera who was trying to fight both Erza and Mira. She really felt sorry for her. She wanted to help but she had no idea how…

Wait!

Lucy stood up and walked over to the three girls. She took a deep breath before running towards them and quickly grabbed Erza by the shoulders. "Erza!" She shouted causing her to catch her attention. "You have to help Natsu! He's chocking! He's going to die!"

"What!?" She shouted glancing over at Natsu. Immediately she ran over to him. Mira just stood there a bit confused, but as she turned back around both Lucy and Kera were gone. She smirked knowing exactly what the blonde did. "Lucy you are one smart girl."


"Ugh… thank you Lucy… I don't… I don't… achoo!" Kera sneezed as the two girls were walking back to Lucy's apartment. The blonde took a step aside not wanting to catch the Dragon Slayer's cold. "It's fine, I saw you needed help."

"Yea… ugh… I hate getting sick." She said with a stuffy voice.

Lucy smiled at her. "Don't worry, I think I have something that might help you."

Kera glanced at her warily. "Sorry if I *sniff* don't trust you, but there's nothing *sniff* that will actually help me."

The two reached Lucy's apartment in mere minutes. Lucy opened the door and motioned Kera to follow her. The brunette looked around in her apartment and noticed it was small but enough for just one person.

She sniffed again her nose completely red and stuffy. She was glad Lucy pulled her out of the wreckage that was called Erza and Mira. She would have definitely died drinking those disgusting medicines.

Lucy came walking out of the kitchen with a cup in her hand. She handed it over to Kera who sat down on her bed. "What's this?" She asked.

"It's something my mom used to make me when I was sick. It really helps a lot." Lucy told her.

Kera glanced at it with a scrunched up nose. "I don't know… medicine tastes disgusting."

Lucy chuckled slightly. "I know, but trust me, this doesn't taste horrible."

The brunette looked up at Lucy pondering if she should drink it or not. Yet she trusted the blonde as if she were her sister so with that she decided to drink it.

Kera was surprised to find out that the liquid in the cup didn't taste horrible at all! She glanced down at it and smiled. "This actually… doesn't taste that bad."

Lucy nodded. "See? Not all medicine is bad."

"What's in it?" She asked curious as to what she was exactly drinking.

"Some herbal teas and a flower that is rumored to help the body heal up quicker. I mixed it all together and that is the result." Lucy told her with a smile.

Kera smiled as well. "Thank you Lucy… I already feel much better. But can I ask you one thing?"

"Sure, what is it?" Lucy wondered what she wanted to ask her.

"Can I hide at your place whenever I get sick again?"

Lucy laughed but nodded. "Of course! We are friends and friends help each other out."

Kera suddenly had a dark look on her face. "But not the way Erza tries to help me when I'm sick."

The two of them started laughing. That night Kera went to bed feeling a lot better than she started the day. She drank more of Lucy's tea that helped her get better and the next morning she was surprised to know that her cold was almost gone.

Lucy was a life saver because now Kera didn't have to suffer through Erza's and Mira's cruel medicine. At least here she had some medicine that didn't taste horrible and wouldn't kill her!

I know it's a little short but I didn't really have any time, but I think I'm on a home stretch now! So anyway, don't forget to leave a review and if you have a request just leave it there as well! Until next time!
