Traitor


Gajeel had snuck onto Phantom's dormitory property easily enough, but didn't enter his old dorm building. He just stood there in the shadows, leaning against the cool brick wall as night continued to linger.

It wasn't until someone came down the stairs and leaned out of the front entrance that Gajeel actually moved, his head craning to meet the other's narrowed gaze.

"Must we do this at three in the morning?" the newcomer growled, carefully closing the door behind him as he leaned on the corner adjacent to the wall Gajeel leaned against. Cracking his wrists, he pulled a small item from the sleeve of his sweater.

"Do you want the trouble of explaining my presence here? You are the only one who doesn't want my ass on a platter," Gajeel said as he took the offered rainbow flame colored flash drive and stuffed it into his black trench coat.

Leaning out into the dim moonlight, Totomaru yawned as he smoothed his white and black hair out of his eyes.

"So does the new place you're at, but whatever. The drive holds a special encryption that will get you past Fairy's security. Just like you wanted."

He wanted to double check it, but knew Totomaru usually delivered. "It better be temporary, Toma. I'm undercover and if any shit goes wrong, they are going to zero their sights on me first. My stay is suppose to last."

Waving him off, the hacker stifles another yawn, "I made sure not to blow up their firewalls, jeez. It will give you thirty minutes. If we are done, I'm crashin."

Nodding his thanks, Gajeel jogged back to where he parked his bike behind Phantom Academy's property and drove to his new school.


She knows it is late, but after thinking about Gajeel Redfox and his reappearance in her life all day, Levy cannot bring herself to sleep. Her mind is restless and her nerves wired with anxiety. Polyushka and the Headmaster assured her that sleeping in the nurse's office is safe. Levy knows this, but the touch of insomnia has set in.

Having been in bed for the last half of the day, she decides to take a walk. Grabbing her current book 'Night Play by Sherrilyn Kenyon', Levy snaps on her mini booklight and begins walking around. She just finished reading the part about Vane, a shapeshifting wolf, who guards his ignorant girlfriend in his animal form from another group of wolves when she bumps into a hard wall.

Only this wall said "Oof!"

Blinking from the collision, Levy looks up into red eyes that haunted her in one of the worst ways possible. Just from seeing his face twisted in the snarl of annoyance made her flash back to when they were both enrolled at The Phantom Institute. The bullying, the stress, the violence, Ambien. Already her mind is swimming from the fact she had stopped inhaling once she gasped in surprise from seeing him, then she opened her mouth to scream.

He came at her. With a quick reaction,Levy caught his arm, twisted his hand away from so he could not capture her, twisting her body around in a swing dance turn then bolted for the nearest exit. She did not get far before she felt a tap at the base of her neck, then she couldn't breath, and she was out.


"Dammit, why were you here?" Gajeel growled down to the sleeping girl in his arms. He did not expect to meet anyone during his mission. Not wanting any drama so early in the morning, he stunned her with a pressure point at the back of her neck, then briefly held her throat to knock her out.

He was amazed she recovered so quickly after looking at him like he was about to kill her. Looking down at her unconscious face, Gajeel couldn't believe only three years had passed. She did not look the same, and he would have never realized who she was had Juvia not pointed her out.

Remembering he only had several minutes before the school's security cameras were reset from his flash drive's override, Gajeel jogged her back to her room and put her back to bed. Setting her book and light on the nightstand, he took one last look at her before opening the window with one leather clad hand and jumping out into the grass. Closing the window behind him, he raced for his bike, hopped on and rode off back to his apartment for some sleep.

Before he could pass out, his cellphone buzzed from a text. Gajeel pressed buttons to bring up the message window.

Did you get it?

From: D

He replied yes then shut off the phone and slept.

Is that interesting at all? Does that make you want to know what is going on? Honestly, there won't be fluffiness for a while. Only characterization as I try and introduce other key characters and their roles. I hope this is at least suspenseful.

Please review! ;.;
