Hya peeps
enjoy
Natsu POV
Man, this Yukino has some really creepy spirits.
First one that makes a sword from her blood.
And then this other one just appears in her place.
One that looks a tad crazy.
And by a tad I mean like she looks mentally deranged.
She was swaying back and forth muttering stuff that even my dragon hearing couldn't quite pick up.
I looked at her face, she reminded me of Lucy.
But she couldn't be Lucy, Lucy is dead.
This chick, Triste, was a platinum blond key.
As I crouched, ready to attack, I see her hands start to drip a foul black liquid drip from her right hand and red blood drip from her left.
I gasp, the blood.
It smells...
Like Lucy...But at the same time it doesn't..
I'll have to ask Gajeel about it later.
My dragon nose can't lie.
Fire burst from me and I spring towards Triste.
I punch her but her right hand stops me.
She looks me straight in the eye.
I shiver.
Her eyes are black and void of anything.
She starts crying black and red tears but her eyes are still void of anything.
"Pain, Sadness, Misery..." I hear her mutter.
She looks at me.
"Hopeless." she whispers and the black liquid engulfs my arm. "You can't let go...That's what makes you weak..."
I scream.
My arm feels like it's rotting away like a corpse.
Corpse.
Lucy.
"No! If I let go I wouldn't have anything to fight for! Lucy died fighting and I won't let myself be defeated by Sabertooth!" I yell as I power up the hostage arm.
She looks almost shocked for a moment before letting out a soft laugh.
It was a sad laugh.
Full of tears.
She looks at me again "I would expect nothing less from you, Natsu..."
With that she uses the hostage arm as leverage to throw me across the stadium.
OW.
that hurt...
I slowly got up
but not before she flung the red liquid at me.
The liquid stuck to me and burned like acid.
I tried to burn it off but it wasn't working.
Through the pain I saw Triste look at Yukino and Yukino nod.
Triste put up her hand and the blood red acid flew back to her in a liquid ball.
She looked at me and I saw a glint of something in her eye.
I gulp.
crud.
"Let's make a deal...Natsu..."Triste whispered "I'll make you loss your memories of her if you can defeat me..."
I looked at her in shock "You mean I could forget Lucy!?"
Triste nodded.
"No." I stated, Triste did look surprised this time and made no effort to hide it.
Silence.
Triste let out a mad, deranged cackle "KAHAHA YOU REALLY ARE SOMETHING NATSU DRAGNEEL! WELL, IF WE CAN'T MAKE A DEAL THEN I GUESS WE CAN JUST FIGHT WITHOUT TO MUCH TROUBLE."
The atmosphere around her was getting darker and more...wild..
Her magic was using the wind to make a vortex surrounding her.
Not good.
I rushed at her again, this time I wouldn't let her grab.
Okay, she didn't grab me with her hands...
Just her magic...
She looked at me, now emotions were swirling in her eyes, she smiled a bitter smile "You are stubborn, I'll give you that but you will lose, I feed off your negative emotions, what is weakening you is strengthening me. I win."
With that, she used her magic to hurl me across the stadium yet again.
This time I couldn't stand back up.
She walk to me and leaned down "Lucy was a lucky girl to have you" Her eyes grew sad before turning hard once again "If she was human I am sure..."
With that she disappeared and Yukino was announced the winner.
Wait.
What did she mean "if she was human?
Doesn't she mean if she was alive?
"Natsu, there is something weird about her..."
I look up, Gajeel is standing over me, looking at the spot Triste disappeared.
"She doesn't smell like a human but she doesn't smell entirely like a spirit either..."
I look Gajeel in the eyes "I smelled Lucy on her"
Gajeel narrowed his eyes "Are you sure?"
I nodded and he said "Well, before you start thinking weird ideas you need to find proof first."
"How?"
"Yukino."
