Holy crap. kinda amazing to the reviews and the Private messages. Thank you every body. For those that are asking:
The Concede prompt is going to go...in it's own story, I'm working on it and I'm roughly 2 1/2 chapters in...possibly 3 1/2 if I consider "Shatter" to be a precursor to the story in Concede.
A Lurman (Desna's naming of Lucy/arman) extra one or two shots may show up. Probably here.
Anyway, hold onto your butts, it's after Midnight my time, So...here's Brimstone, Part Two.
The blonde woman made a stop back at White Sea, having sprung for an airship ride back instead of a five week boat ride, and it was always fun to talk to Bickslow's brothers. She smiled at those she knew in the guild hall and then sat at the bar, tiredly ordering a strawberry smoothie.
It had taken a two weeks to get back to Bosco, having been trying to stay under the radar, but she was exhausted. Each night it was the same odd dream, though each time, it continued a bit longer before she woke up. While she wasn't against any sort of wet dream, the fact that they were centered around Vander was worrying. The man got around more than she was sure even Loke got around, and that was saying a lot. He was sweet, and a good lover she'd heard, but she wasn't trying to actually start anything like that.
Her magic needed stability and, as she sipped her drink, the youngest Pradesh would never give that, despite the whispered promises in her dreams. They were that: erotic dreams to hold her over until she found someone. The last few nights, however, she found it harder to wake up, feeling like she hadn't rested much and like the rough sex in her dreams had showed up on her body. So far, there were no marks, so it was probably her mind just imposing the dream on her body.
"Hey there," Came a rumble behind her and she smiled at the smell of mint and the calming feeling as she turned. Cristoff, she mused, would have been someone she'd have loved to taken to her bed. Damn Dragon Slayers and their need to grab her and make her kin. They shared similar magic as he was the Lunar dragon slayer, and if she hadn't been made kin, she would have buried her hands in his dark hair and gotten lost in eyes that looked like the night sky. As it was? Big Brother Teddy bear. "you look tired."
She gave him a small smile, "just not sleeping well. Don't worry about it."
Cris gave a small nod, "okay, how long are you staying?"
Lucy looked thoughtful, "mm, a week. It'll still put me two weeks ahead of schedule to go back." She held out her arms, "up. I'm tired and want cuddles."
The Lunar dragon could only chuckle as he picked the small mage up and held her in one arm. He nuzzled into her hair and she let out a soft sigh as she nuzzled into his chest, being soothed by his very presence.
There were quite a few that had a similar idea, but seeing Cristoff, they'd backed way a bit from the obviously exhausted mage. Eyes watched the two, some having hunger for the large, massive, sex on legs Dragon Slayer, others watching the small, exotic woman that he was carrying. Cristoff was by no means without eyes. If his dragon hadn't claimed her as kin, he probably would have taken her to his bed, if only for a fun night.
He was a bit worried about her being so tired, so when she dozed off, he let his magic gently pulse through her, checking her body and frowned when he found something off. A small seed of magic at the base of her skull and he made a detour for the infirmary.
The bulky healer carefully laid her out and then started to truly look into what was there, only to pause as waves of arousal suddenly wafted off Lucy. It wasn't him, he wasn't touching her in that way, but it seemed that the bit of magic into the small seed had done this. He pulled the magic back and watched as the blonde mewled and shifted on the bed, but seemed to settle again.
"…Kaleb?" the slayer called out mentally, frowning as he pulled out his L-pad and went through it until he found Lucy's information. He tapped at it, marking things down as he put a hand out, a light mist settling over her and easing a few sore muscles he found.
It was a moment before he got a reply, but Kaleb let out a hum over the link, "Yes, Cris?"
"do me a favor, see if you can find out where her last job was?"
It was an odd request and Kaleb knew his confusion was there, but he would find out what was going on shortly enough "we'll contact Fairy Tail."
His next course of action was to call Xally and when the water mage came in, she looked concerned. They spoke and she gently prodded the 'seed' with her magic, frowning as no reaction at all came.
"well that's Odd," Xally said, looking at Cristoff, "are you su-" she was cut off as she felt cristoff pour a bit of magic into the seed and watched the blonde woman writhe and mewl for a moment, "…alright then…it responds to male magic…or maybe it's Celestial Magic?" she tapped her foot, "Best way to find out is to get the others."
Cristoff nodded and they went over who would be best to try. The two made a long list and then sighed as they realized the time. "we should probably take her home."
Xally smiled warmly, "it'll be nicer for her there too."
It was a simple moonshift and the three were at the front door to the Pradesh estate, moving inside. They knew their father wasn't due back from Enca for another day, so Xally went to notify Mr Elan of their visitor while Cristoff moved to put her into his bed.
He was quite confused as he sat there, watching her and trying to figure out what that seed was. After awhile, he simply decided to sleep and curl around his small kin. It was a bit later that the scent of arousal washed over him and he woke, frowning as he felt Lucy panting in her sleep. He knew it wasn't his magic currently and yet, he felt the seed being active.
This was bad, was this happening every night? He wasn't sure, but he hoped that finding out where she had been and what she had been doing would give them a clue. His eyes went a bit wide and the breathy half moan of Vander's name and then he scowled. Had his brother done something? No…Van wouldn't do anything to harm someone; especially not putting something in another person's body that was unknown.
Xally walked into the room, frowning a bit "Do you feel it?"
Cris blinked and looked into the turquoise eyes, "…feel what?"
The woman frowned a bit as she stood there, wrapping her arms around her stomach, "…it's calling, Cris. Whatever it is, it's calling out…"
He shifted from the bed and scooped up his sister, taking her back to her room with a quick and hasty spell to put her to bed and now he was worried. Xally shouldn't have been affected and they didn't know what it was. It hadn't bothered her in the day and early evening, so it had to be night.
Come morning, Cristoff started his research and what he came to, with the clues he had was frightening. An Incubus. An Incubus that was using a possible crush that Lucy had on his youngest brother to have dream sex with her and sap her vitality.
The Lunar Dragon Slayer came to one conclusion: they weren't prepared to deal with a dream demon.
