"There, oh God there, there, there, theeeeeeeeeeeere" The Demon brought her claws raking down the back of Freed's body making him yell in pain as they both finished together and fell into her bed. Transforming back to her sweet self Mira wrapped one leg around Freed and drew herself closer to his heaving body. She was happy that he and the Raijinshu had gotten back as quickly as they had, though if they hand't rushed they would have all been back the next day around noon anyways. As soon as she had told them what had happened the group tripled their pace and gotten back to Magnolia in record time. Evergreen had immediately gone to Fairy Hills to keep an eye on the girls with Elfman trailing behind saying they "needed a Man" to protect them even if Erza was staying there as well. Lisanna was back at their place with Laxus and Bickslow, though by now Mira was sure that Laxus had gone to make sure that Cana was okay. Pushing those dear thoughts out of her mind she looked up through the mass of green hair at the boy who had brought her powers back only a few years ago and continued to do so, though in a much more fun manner.
Smiling contentedly she drew circles across his thin body with her right pointer finger, thinking nothing of what was going on in the outside world while caressing her right hand through his long green hair. Right now she was here with Freed and that was all she cared about. She could smell the love they had just made and was trying to put it in her memories, never wanting it to go away. She had never thought of Freed as somebody that would be able to have this kind of relationship with especially when he seemed so fixated on Laxus, but she remembered their first date so vividly; from the spilt coffee to the midnight kiss. Letting her eyes stroll around the room she remembered the first night spent here. Freed had a much bigger bed than normal for just one person, his excuse had been that he tossed and turned a lot during the night. The first night spent in this bed he had held her softly and slept until noon the next day After that he could barely close his eyes when not sleeping with her, making missions especially difficult She closed her eyes remembering those sweet times.
"You'll have to talk about it sooner or later so it might as well be now." Her eyes snapped open and before she could stop them the tears were rolling down her face. Freed quickly brought both arms around her and held on as hard as possible as the always stable Mira broke down in his bed. She sobbed and wailed and beat his chest but he held her and knowing that the abuse he'd gotten in bed far outweighed what she was doing now. Even Freed's eyes were starting to water as his love continued to wail but there was nothing he could do. He hadn't known Droy all that well, to tell the truth he didn't think much of him or his plant magic but that was besides the point. The fact that Mira was pained by what was going on was what really threw him for a loop and he knew there was nothing he could do except hope that whoever had done it would be caught. Cursing life and cursing the murder and cursing everything that was happening Mira let loose the anger and frustration of the day. Her tears stained the sheets and her white hair which was already a mess grew more tangled with each sob and each terrible cry. After what seemed like an hour she finally had no more tears to give and slowly calmed down to the point where all she could do was shiver uncontrollably as the anger poured away.
"Please Freed. Please don't ever die." The whimpering of a sentence did nothing to help her but Mira needed to say it, she needed to know that he would never leave her.
"I wouldn't" He whispered back, wanting nothing more than for her to fall asleep in his arms after the fit that she had just thrown.
"You say that but...but I know that sooner or later it'll happen. It always does. It won't be like with Lisanna; that was pure luck. If you go then how am I supposed to continue on? I mean sure there's the guild and everything but, I love you Freed, I need you." It definitely wasn't the first time that one of them had said they loved the other but this time it wasn't just something that was said before bed or leaving for a mission. This time it rang with meaning and filled them both with a warmth that they definitely needed. Freed was staring out the window of the room while Mira spoke, looking at the bright moon. A small flash from the roof across the street made him sit up unexpectedly and go the window.
"What? Freed what is it?" Mira covered her naked body with sheets as the mage stood at the window looking out into the night
"Nothing I- I thought I saw something." He shook his thoughts away and turned around to look at the the beautiful creature that was his girlfriend. Paranoia was not something that either of them needed right now. His slender form silhouetted by the moonlight Freed sighed deeply while preparing what he was going to respond with.
"I promise I won't die. I wouldn't just leave you like that. There's no way I would ever-" The explosion rocked the house and caused the floors to collapse. He heard Mira scream and saw a flash of light as she changed into her Satan Soul form, ready for whatever was next. This was Freed's house though, he knew there was no time for himself to do the same. As he fell he realized that his honour was jeopardized but that was all he had time for as his back hit something and he watched an upright beam run him straight through. He heard Mira's demon form shriek in heartbreak as the girl landed beside him and turned back to her normal form again. She knew there was nothing that could be done, the plank was to big, the wound too fatal. The explosion from underneath them must have caused it to pop upwards and right into the path of the falling boy. Tears fell as Mira realized the promise made not a minute ago was being broken. If only she had thought to save him instead of just herself! If only there had been more time between the shock and the collapse of the floor! She could smell the first wisps of smoke making their way up and around the destroyed inner house.
"Fuck, there goes my promise eh?" He coughed up blood stared up at the crater where his room used to be. "I'm so sorry Mira, that was definitely not how I wanted this to end." He heard her sobbing and turned his head slowly to look at her and smiling to himself as he once again realized how beautiful she truly was.
"Don't cry sweet. I do love you, remember that. Catch the bastard who did this before he continues. I don't want any more broken hearts." With that Freed reached out for his love, stroking her white hair for the last time before slowly slipping into Deaths icy grip. Mira just knelt by the body of her love; past the point of crying and moving on to the shock of it all. Mira stayed where she was as the fire from the explosion quickly swarmed around the house eating its way through what she thought would soon be her life. The footsteps behind her didn't wake her from her trance as the killer carefully stepped around the shaking mage. Mira barely looked up as the killer knelt in front of her with a giant iron spike at the ready. After a few painful seconds words began to form as the cold, deadly tip was placed carefully on her forehead. Mira didn't know if her attacker would even hear her but she didn't care, just as long as she said what she needed to.
"Do it. I don't care. First you kill a dear friend and now you kill my love. There's nothing left for me in this world. God it's a good thing Lisanna and Elfman can't see me now. You know she'll hate you right? When they figure it out she'll hate you most of all. Burn in Hell-" The spike through her brain stopped Mira' monologue. It took three seconds for the light to fade from her eyes and the once lively face of FairyTail hit the burning ground, bloody and shocked. By the time the fire brigades had stopped the explosions inferno, all that was left were two burnt bodies and the ashes of dead lovers dreams.
So I couldn't wait and I really had to put this one out the same week as the last one. The next chapter will be on the same day as usual though I might start putting these out two times a week. Hope you enjoyed this though!
