Dangerously Fallen

Chapter Four:

Kitty: Still Bao-sans work I don't own Fairy Tail! On with the Story!

Lucy's POV

I glared at the buff lightning dragon slayer who was bumming with laughter. The white haired take over mage scolded the blonde who gulp at her scowl. I sighed, trailing my fingers lightly on the mark. After we got back to the guild with our new member – Wendy, everyone started to bomber me with questions. While all the time a certain fire dragon slayer trailed behind, now he was nowhere to be found. I can't help but keep blaming myself that Natsu is depressed so much; it is actually my fault after all.

''So you mean to tell me you let an enemy mark you? Your pitiful bunny girl..'' Gajeel muttered under his breath but due to him standing behind me I could hear him loud and clear. All I wanted to do was crawl into an emo corner and sulk there forever. The blue haired bookworm seemed to notice my discomfort so she grabbed her thick old book and hit the metal head in the face. Said metal head winced while grabbing hold of his bruised nose.

''What the hell was that for shrimp?!'' The iron dragon slayer exploded but the short bluenette stood her ground.

''Can't you see Lu-chan is depressed? You just made matters worse!'' The script mage bit back, making the barmaid giggle.

''Their just like an old married couple~!'' She sang, imagining blue haired babies with red eyes and black haired babies with hazel eyes. ''Kyaa~!'' Mira squealed, letting her wild imagination run loose. Laxus sweat dropped and looked back at me with a serious look in his rough face.

''But seriously blondie this is your fault. The dragons can put a mark on their mates only if the mate agrees to be with the dragon.'' Laxus explained with his annoying matter-of-fact voice. My blonde bangs covered my eyes as my face darkened anime style. A cold hand was placed on my shoulder and I knew whose hand is that immediately.

''Don't worry; we will be there for you no matter what.'' Gray stated with a sigh, soon the water mage join the group too.

''Juvia agrees with Gray-sama. As from this day, you are no longer Juvia's love rival Lucy-san.'' My head snapped up when I heard Juvia say my name; it was so rare I sometimes thought that she forgot what my name is. Soon Erza entered the guild with an unconscious Natsu on her back, she looked around the guild and sighed, throwing the passed out dragon slayer to a corner.

''Master hasn't returned yet?'' She asked in her usual authority tone. Cana shook her head and continued to drown down her booze. The Strauss sisters went to Natsu, pulling his body closer to the group. I put two fingers each to my temples and started to massage them in relaxing circles, trying to avoid the upcoming migraine. The only thing I could do now is pray that master knows a spell to get rid of the mark, but I highly doubt it when I heard the dragon slayer explanations about the mark.

True, I did allow the dark mage the do that but I thought he was going to do something different, I did not expect him to bite me like a vampire! I blushed at the thought, what a fool I am, truly. It seemed to affect Natsu greatly, even the other three dragon slayers in the guild. I still didn't know why thought. Gajeel sniffed the air and sneered a little.

''His scent is all over you blondie. Go take a bath or something, it really p*** me off.'' Gajeel hissed out and I shot up from my seat, quick walking to the wooden door. But before I made a run for my apartment I poked my head out again.

''When master gets back could you call me though lacrima Mira? I want to rest so please take care that Natsu won't bother me if he wakes up!'' And with that I sprinted back to my apartment but before that I heard Laxus say something strange like 'Don't worry he won't ever do that again' or something. Gee, what an old geezer he is. I chuckled at the thought and slowed down before jumping on the river isle while balancing myself.

While I was standing on the concrete isle of the river side I summand Plue to keep me company as usual. While walking I hummed softly to myself but suddenly froze. My hand shot up to my neck and it started to burn. Groaning in pain, I quickly jumped off the isle before I lost my balance and fell into the water. The little snowman/dog started to shiver even more and I nodded my head slightly in a sign that I will be alright. After a few seconds the pain suddenly disappeared. I stood up again and started to walk home again, this time a little shaken thought.

After reaching the front door I was met by an angry looking landlady and I gulp audibly, this is not my lucky day at all. She was yet again wearing my clothes and I sweat dropped. She pointed an accusing finger at me and I started to sweat cold sweat.

''You are late for your rent again!'' She shouted at me and I stepped up, almost dropping on my knees due to fear. Seeing me so shaken up she smiled down at me, clearly enjoying my horror filled expression. How sadistic! She turned around and fanned herself before examining her nails.

''You have a week to pay up or I'm kicking you out!'' she exclaimed and went back upstairs. I was left shaken up and I could feel my soul flying out anime style. Sighing, I reached for my key to unlock the door but not before I grabbed my baseball bat which was hidden under the said stairs. I know what you're thinking: why would I need a baseball bat for?

Call it intruder intuition, but I was so used to seeing my unwanted guest that I couldn't help it! I just knew that someone was there. Natsu, maybe? NO, Laxus said he wouldn't come so Gray or Erza? Happy?

Kicking open the door I didn't even bother to turn up the lights or even close the door behind me. I could simply smell that somebody was here or is in my home at the moment. Taking slow steps from the lobby I raised the bat up above my head, gripping it tightly. I looked in my bedroom first. No living soul was there. Then I went into the bathroom, nothing there either. I sigh in relief and my lips curved into a smile when I walked back to my bedroom. Finally. I thought. This is an actual first! No Erza, no Gray, no Happy, no Nat-

''Look who decided to finally drop by.'' A too familiar dark voice echoed in the silence. My stomach dropped. God why me? I quickly pressed myself to the wall while tracing my hand for the light switch. Once I found it I punched the button making the lamp come to life. When my eyes focused to the light I literally dropped to the floor.

Here sitting on my orange armchair sat a cross-legged Midnight of the Oracion Seis, calmly drinking tea! What is wrong with people and their abnormal way to enter my apartment? Then acting like they own the place no less! I wanted to pull my hair out from the frustration.

''What the hell are you doing here wannabe vampire emo/goth boy!?'' I exploded at him and he just raised a black eyebrow. He stood up and spread his hands out and smirked at me.

''Moving in, what else?'' He mocked in a calm voice. I gaped at the arrogant male in disbelief. Is he serious?! I pointed an accusing at him.

''You! You should be in jail! You were arrested, I eve-'' He raised his hand to my face as in to stop talking. I obediently shut up and looked at the two colored haired man expectantly. He sighed and dropped his hand.

''It was a clone, duh!'' He mocked with an out of character sentence. My eyebrows twitch and I looked at him, astonished ''That still doesn't explain why you're here and the mark you gave me! You're no dragon slayer! So how?'' He looked up at me with a mischievous glint in his blood red eyes.

''That's true, I'm no dragon slayer, but that doesn't mean I can't use a spell to mark a mate. As of why I'm here is because I'm bored.'' He said before walking to the direction of my bed, oh no he doesn't! I ran as fast as I can and in a few seconds I was in front of him with my hands on my hips. I looked at him with a glare and he stared down at me.

''Like I care! I didn't even give you permission to stay here with me! Furthermore I demand you to remove this mark off of me this instant!'' He looked at me funnily and my eyebrows knitted together in confusion.

''Let's make a deal-'' He started, stepping closer to me which automatically made me step back, which led me stumbling on my bed. ''-You let me stay with yo-'' ''Heck no! I rather die than stay with a wannabe emo/goth vampi-'' ''And then I will remove that mark you so much despise off of your neck.'' He finished the offer with his annoyingly calm demeanor. Í groaned and grasped my head. That damn man! I will kill him in his sleep!

''Ugh! For how long do you want to stay?'' I asked tiredly, he smirked down at me with a victorious smirk on his face.

''6 months for starters.'' He stated calmly.

''Heck no,'' I deadpanned. He sighed and plopped down next to me on my pink bed. Resting his head in his palm while supporting himself with an elbow he looked at me with that usual evil glint that I actually got used to already.

''Then you'll be stuck as my mate forever.'' He stated calmly, I blinked once, twice. Never taking my eyes off of the pale skinned mage who seemed to be so mesmerizing in closer inspection. I looked away and found the ceiling to be quite intriguing at the moment.

''Well if the mark isn't removed in 6 months it will be permanent and we will truly be mates either you like it or not.'' He whispered in my ear in a cold tone while tracing the mark on my neck. This action sent pleasant shivers down my spine. I turned my head in the other direction from the dark mage, not wanting to meet his intense gaze.

After a few good minutes I turned around to see the male looking down at my neck with a bored expression but still tracing the mark design none or less. Meeting my eyes he gave me a sincere smile when he saw a determined glint in my eyes. That smile made my breath hitch in my throat actually; it was the first time I saw him smile. With a genuine smile on his face he looked human.

''A-Alright, let's do this. But this will be just between the both of us, no one will know about this got it? If somebody from my guild comes you hide, when the deadline will be near you will remove the mark, deal?'' He seemed to be acknowledging the deal before nodding slowly, a grin slowly making it's why to his lips.

''Let's seal it with a kiss then.'' He muttered before grasping my chin lightly. I started to shake my head violently from my position but to no avail. He moved closer and pecked my lips gently. I stared at the man with wide eyes as he pushed me off of my own bed.

''Now go cook me something woman.'' And with that he turned his back to me. I flushed in embarrassment and anger. I'm not a toy! An evil grin appeared on my face.

''Fine, I get it. The wannabe vampire needs his beauty sleep, which is complete b*** since you're so ugly that even make-up can't help you.'' I ran out of the room and into the kitchen. I knew that this will end badly for me but I will not go down without a decent fight!

''That's it! Prepare to die foolish little girl!'' I yelped and ran around my house with the strange man chasing me. I won't admit it but it was actually kind of fun.
