Okay because I love you all so much I have another chapter for you :D
I do NOT own Fairy Tail, Hiro Mashima does
It was sunset, the sky a mixture of beautiful pinks, reds and orange, the last of the sun's rays were fading into a soft glow. The gentle breeze made the soft blades of grass sway as if dancing a slow dance. Lucy stood up on the hill, where the master ordered her to stand, she looked down at her mates, who weren't even bothering to hide the fact they were in pain. The ugly gashes created on their last mission had become a sickly purple with the blood being a mixture of black and red, so thick and disgusting. Master Makarov stood a distance from Gajeel and Laxus as they groaned in pain, he took a small glance up at Lucy, she looked so lost that he wanted to go and tell her it was alright and nothing was wrong, but that would be a lie.
The sounds of bones crunching made his head snap towards the two young males, it was beginning. Their breathing became heavy and short, they shouted out in pain as their bones snapped and reconstructed themselves, their skin tearing and reshaping, a dark light washed over the two as they struggled in pain, both refusing to look at their mate knowing she'd come running down the second she saw their desperation, and that would be too dangerous. A dark vortex of light swirled around the two, howls pierced through the sky, howls of pain. The second the dark light vortex vanished so did the human version of Laxus and Gajeel, and in their place stood two massive wolfs, bigger than Makarov had seen before.
Laxus was definitely the biggest, broad chest and shoulders, his pelt the same blonde as his normal hair, and even in wolf form he had his lightning scar which was covered by white fur, making it distinguished against the blonde pelt. His striking blue-grey eyes shone brightly, they flickered around the field, his nose twitching as he caught the different scents. Gajeel may be smaller than Laxus but he was still very large, his black pelt looked wild and untameable like his hair normally would, a glint of silver was caught from the last of the sun's rays, his burning red eyes searched the perimeter, his nose twitching as he searched the smells in the air, they were looking for something.
Realisation dawned on Makarov, his eyes shot up to the hill where a crying Lucy was sitting, a low growl had his attention, he focused back on Gajeel and Laxus, who were both focused on the blonde girl, they growled, the only warning he had before they shot forward, knocking him over as they bolted up the hill to the crying blonde.
~With Fairy Tail~
The guild was quiet, it was going through another morning stage, Mira didn't serve any drinks, she just sat with her family and Fiancé Freed. Even Natsu was quieter than normal, even when they lost other members he was never this, eerily quiet, the guild guessed it had to do with the fact his best friend in the whole world had just lost her mates. Gray stared off into space, he felt for his little sister, she would be so broken after this, like a shell of herself, he knew it because he could see it in her eyes the day she came back from that mission, the light had already started to disappear, she was slowly breaking apart. Bickslow and Lisanna held hands as they silently grieved, even Evergreen didn't bother hiding her emotions behind her haughty mask or fan, as she cried of Elfman's shoulder while she sat on his lap.
Three people and a ghost stared down at the depressed guild from the second floor. "Master Mavis, have you figured anything out yet?" questioned Erza, her gaze hard as she held back her emotions "yes I have in fact, and that is, that this curse or Virus, in fact it's both, it is reversible, and I know how, I can guide you, there is the cure and to also further erase this monstrosity is to kill the evil that started this" she explained, her child like behaviour completely gone, this was her guild and her children suffering, this evil will pay. "I'll kill the bastard, no one here needs blood on their hands, plus he took my daughter so I want payback" stated Gildarts, the others nodded "and I'll help with the cure, I want my team back, so I'll do the cure with the help of Wendy" spoke Levy as she brushed away her tears. Master Mavis smiled softly at the girl "I'll run the searches for anything needed with the cure" Erza said, the three with her knew she was going to break soon, she lost Jellal to the curse/virus and she never got to say goodbye.
"Fairy Tail goes for blood, enough is enough, we strike when everything is in place and we take back the light, this darkness will be terminated" Mavis stated determinedly, the others nodded in agreement. Natsu below had heard them and he jumped up on the table, his eyes blazing with the raging fire "we're all with you Mavis, we go for blood! no more darkness!" he shouted, Fairy Tail looked up as one, they stared at the four on the second level, and nodded "NO MORE DARKNESS!" they shouted. Master Mavis watched on proudly as the guild roared out its promise to take down the darkness once and for all. Light was going to rain down on the darkness and destroy it, light will prevail and nothing was going to stop Fairy Tail from eradicating this darkness. That was a promise.
~With Lucy, before the change~
Master had made me stay up here on the hill near the cottage as a safety precaution, and of course my mates were all for it, they practically pushed me up the hill before running back down, but not before telling me they loved me and to stay up on this damn hill. Master had even said I could stay in the cottage for the few days he does as well, it's a three bedroom cottage with two bathrooms and I could just have Virgo bring me clothes. So now inside the cottage there were some of my belongings in the master bedroom where i would sleep and my toiletries where in my personal bathroom.
Now I just stood on top of the hill watching my mates as they suffered through the pain. I flinched physically as I watched them, it hurt so much to see them go through this, but I wouldn't back away I'd stay through the whole change. My breath caught as it actually began, my hands begun to shake as tears fell as I watched, Mavis it looked so painful, I wanted to rush forward and to wrap my arms around them, but I couldn't. I was terrified of the black light vortex, I sobbed as I watched it all unfold, dropping to the ground when their howls pierced the sky and when the black light vortex disappeared I cried harder at the sight of them as wolves, they were gone now, the curse/virus took them away from me. Their wolf form was just as magnificent as their human form. I covered my face with my hands and cried, my other halves where gone and I was so lost and afraid.
I heard their growls but I couldn't look up it would only hurt more. I briefly heard the Master shout out my name and the sound of heavy running paws, I shook my head, no I wouldn't look up it wouldn't do me any good. The sound of heavy running paws got louder and low growls rang through my ears. Oh Mavis, please don't let it be them, I took my hands away from my face, and my eyes widened as they ran up the hill, a feral look in their eyes, their lips curled as they growled again as they kept running up the hill, but I didn't move, I couldn't, I wanted to but my body wouldn't listen. Dear Mavis they may actually kill me.
:D I know it's short but I couldn't write anymore and it was just pouring out until I couldn't figure what else to write plus I like this Cliff-hanger a lot!
Anyway the Gajeel and Lucy story is slowly becoming, and I did have another idea for another story which hopefully you will like, but they won't be up until this story comes closer to its ending.
