Chapter 9: Her Story
I open my eyes to a bright light, it was blind sighting and my lids narrowed while my pupils adjusted to what I thought was the sun.
But it wasn't.
Its was a hospital's ceiling light.
I'm alive.
My other senses start to awaken and I'm able to listen to the low beeping sounds of the cardiogram, they were constant but slow. My sight got clearer and now I can look around me just to see her family.
Erza's family.
Worried eyes all looking at me, Natsu, Lucy, Gray, Lluvia, Mira, Laxus, the little girl Wendy, Makarov the owner of the club and of course Happy the blue cat.
Erza was nowhere to be seen.
"What are you doing here?" I spat but my voice comes hoarse and pain strings in my abdomen, I wince and everyone looks at me with sorry filled eyes.
But I don't want their pity, I want answers.
"I ASKED WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE" the cardiogram started beeping faster and louder as anger filled my heart, but they all just looked down.
I noticed and started taking deep breaths, my heart slowly steadied back but the pain was back and any movement caused a sharp pain.
"Mr. Fernandes we came to apologize…" Makarov spoke and I wanted nothing but to kill them all and have dinner with their corpses hanging on my wall, but I just listened without reacting.
Fairy Tail Club is actually a mafia organization that covers up as being a famous and popular night club.
Makes sense.
With the high advancements in medicine and because I'm rich, the doctors let me and besides I've spent 3 days in the hospital.
I was in a coma, apparently after being smashed on the head with a wooden plank.
I don't know where she hide it or where she got it, but YES Erza did it and YES the wooden plank broke in two.
If anyone was wondering that.
I agreed to go to the club with them and have a more vast explanation of WHAT THE FUCK HAPPENED.
We arrived and they take me to a section I've never seen before where there's a back door that leads to the basement.
I'm quite suspicious about all this, what if Erza knows I survived and asked her friends to bring me down here so she can finish the job.
I don't speak up my thought and continue down the staircase, down here it was very different.
Well not so much really, it had a few poles but not so many as in the actual club, it had soccer, ping-pong and hockey tables, a football field that was used for soccer as well, several pool tables near the bar along with bull's eye targets hanging on the wall, there was a bowling place, a movie theater and they even had a freaking rollercoaster!
Pretty impressive.
We walk pass all these thing and I even spot a go kart track and an Olympic sized pool. But it doesn't end there, this is just one-third of the area, we are going for the place where they practice and train with all the deadly stuff, from guns to bare-hand techniques that can rip you balls out before you can even blink.
I was told by Natsu that Erza was the best bare-handed fighter and she was also skilled with the knife and guns. She was pretty much the best of best in terms of killing, seducing and having sex from the entire mafia.
I gulped.
We kept walking until we reached the final third of the place, it was where they all rest and sleep no more than 50 individual beds one next to the other with about one meter of space. Except for one room in the far corner, that was supposed to be Makarov's room but he's always drinking or passed out on the couches near the bar.
So they use his room for other purposes.
Sexual purposes.
They call it the Fucking Room.
And not because they are insulting the room, but because they fuck in it.
Obviously.
After the tour, we got back to the bar and they had vodka shots.
I skipped that but the ones Erza calls her family make sure I catch up on Erza's past so I can try and understand her, get on my white horse and bring her back fully in love!
Easier said than done.
I heard everything, it all began when she arrived at the age of 11 (3 years after I thought she was dead) she knocked on the door weighing much less than 50 pounds, she looked like a living skeleton and Makarov opened his heart to let her join. Apparently he had done this before with all of the other now mafia member.
They'll are very thankful to him cause he treated them like his own children, they had all the food they needed and nothing vital for living was missing. He taught everything he knew about exotic dancing and fighting skills, not the sex though and I earned some disgusted looks for asking such thing.
Of course not they all learn from having sex with each other, Makarov only briefly explained where to put what and what to do about it and that's it, but he waited until they were 15 to explain these things cause things were starting to grow and feelings like 'love' were flourishing so he had no choice.
But it was so awkward that at first they'll were grossed out and said they'll never do does things.
And here they are!
It's kind of funny.
So a very grossed out Erza with a flushed face got out of the meeting, just to be fortunate enough to bump into a 19 year old Laxus who had pretty good experience by then with sex and well…Let's just say the Lion ate the Lamb.
And by Lamb I mean ERZA'S 15 YEAR OLD VIRGINITY and by Lion I mean SON OF A BITCH LAXUS WHO FOOLED LITTLE ERZA TO COME AND PLAY WITH HIM.
I punched him, but he admitted he deserved that and worse, but he also told me all his story about his bad days when he cleverly stole Erza's virginity, but he changed now.
Although Erza…not so much change for good.
Makarov had suspected that she might have had a haunting past and she was traumatized by that but the Laxus incident must have triggered it and that's when she started to change.
Okay so Laxus was his first (stab in my heart) after that she did it again (stab) and again (stab) and again (stab) and he they've done it so many time he lost count (my heart stopped beating and I passed out).
I woke up a few hours later and after confirming I was 'all right' they continued the so-called 'story'.
Laxus frantically apologies but I said it was ¡ 'okay' so he stopped. They took turns to talk and now Gray was up.
He started talking about the next step in Erza's pitfall to hate.
Her love life.
She continued to fuck with Laxus for 2 years (…ouch) and after that she didn't want to anymore cause she was looking for something more 'serious'. So she decided to date Natsu after he showed interest in her and they went out for a couple of months before being an official couple and afterwards in their fifth month anniversary they had sex. It was Natsu's first time and it was 'amazing like if she was some sort of expert on the field' (stabbed in the heart).
The relationship was going great and they just had sex every once in a while cause they wanted to take it slowly but all of a sudden when she turned 18 she was horny all the time and having sex with Natsu wasn't good enough for her anymore, so she went in look for a lover.
Gray.
Mira was Erza's confident so she knew the story perfectly and she proceeded to do the talk now.
So Erza kept dating Natsu but secretly she met with Gray when it was Natsu's turn to work at the club or he went on a mission, she will call Gray and they'll fuck, she was Gray's first as well and thought him everything he knows now. Mira explained that Erza had Gray as a lover cause secretly 'she liked to fuck and Natsu was too loving to ever fuck her' (I punched Gray). He apologized and said he only wanted her to be happy cause she loved her as well as Natsu.
Later they discovered she didn't love any of them.
How did they found out?!
Did Natsu caught them hooking up?!
Did Gray say anything about it?!
The answer is no.
She actually told both of them to meet her in the fucking room, they gladly went but when they both came in Erza was 'posing sexily in very provocative underwear' so when she proposed a threesome they jumped both jumped in bed! (I punched them both)
After the action was over they realized she was only using them to have sex and she didn't feel anything for either of them. There was a lot of drama but she didn't negate anything in fact she admitted her plan and then walked out like it was a normal thing to do.
Natsu and Gray had their hearts broken and they had to listen to Erza and Laxus fucking in the fucking room all fucking day (I punched Laxus again, and gave a compassionate look to my buddies Natsu and Gray).
Things got better for them, some girls joing the gang, Lucy and Lluvia. Natsu and Lucy instantly connected and Gray and Lluvia…well she connected, Gray pretends she doesn't love her as well cause he was still hurting but afterwards Lluvia melted her heart with her pure love and they are together as well ever since.
Back to Erza, she got into a routine of 'hard training and fucking hard' (I actually frowned, but she apologies a bit and continued after I punched Laxus). Soon she started going on missions but she chose only missions that involved torture, torture and killing and killing. She had gotten herself into an 'unhealthy path' that consisted on: fucking, training, fuck in the shower, going on a mission to kill someone, pole dancing, lap dancing, prostituting herself, lap dancing, pole dancing, training, fuck in the shower, fuck in bed, have dinner and sleep, she barely ate anything thought the day- (I started crying interrupting her but she was so gentle my laments don't lasted for long. Oh and I punched Laxus).
Natsu started talking now, Laxus started showing interest in Mira so as being best friends Erza told Laxus she didn't want to fuck with him anymore and he was sad and relieved cause he really liked Mira but really liked to fuck with Erza. In the end he chose Mira and she helped him change for good.
But Erza…
Things got worse for her intense training sessions, intense dancing, intense prostitution…That went on for 2 years until she met you.
(I blushed)
Everything was getting better, she started getting along with all of us again and not only for sex but we could be actual friends and play football and stuff like old times (I smiled a little) and all because of you man, you fill her heart and vagina (I didn't commented on that one).
But suddenly she started to get all frantic whenever someone said something about you and she would rage out or look for a fight or go out for a fuck but she never did, she just pretended she didn't care about you. Cause she is so afraid of getting hurt the sole idea that someone cares for her in a more intimate way it freaks her out to the point of killing even the slight spark of hope and happiness (I have to point out everyone in the room looked stunned at the wisdom filled words of this young man, even me. He smiled awkwardly cause all the attention was suddenly on him, but then he looked at me and smiled for real).
(I thought about the whole story adding her past as a child which I knew, but still…something doesn't quite fit…)
"She's just hurt and don't wanna be ever again you know?" Makarov said seriously, I nodded.
I get the feeling, I went to a similar process. I was broken too…
I'm broken too.
Could it be that she missed me as much as I missed her…?
Maybe she loves me too, but shes afraid.
If I can only let her know for real that if she's with me she won't be hurt ever again.
I have to find her.
I abruptly get up from my seat, startling everyone but they had smiles on their faces knowing what I'll do.
I'm actually hurt they thought I would leave the love of my life to run off.
Of course not!
"I'm going for her" I declare, and ran out but was stopped. I didn't know where the hell she went but Makarov did and after I came back he gave me directions where to head at. Immediately after he was done and we confirmed the location 3 times I rushed up the stairs and out of the club.
Makarov also warned me about something else he knew.
Erza had a gun.
