6:30 am(School starts at 8:00 am but Student Council Members should be early due to tons of works)
On the way to school
"I was possessed," Jellal confessed a shocking truth. I barely moved my mouth to speak. Sting and Rogue froze as well. I looked at the two of them for explanation but nobody moved.
"Hold it!" I said with confusion. I rested both of my hands on my hair, closed my eyes and was going to explode except for the fact that I prevented it. "You were possessed? Ultear is your friend? How can she be a mage?"
"Ultear is a time mage," Sting said, explaining. "She can reverse the time, be someone she isn't and controls time"
"She is one of us?" Erza almost screamed. "Anyways, you were possessed by whom?"
"I-I d-don't remember," he said. I look at Rogue and Sting again for answers but they didn't gave me any hint. It was after then, I felt someone grab my neck and push me to the wall, choking me hard. I looked at the guy and saw that it was Jellal with red eyes. "Erza Scarlet, you shall die!"
"Je...llal?" I asked while trying to get away from his hands but they were steel. Sting and Rogue rush to my aid and pulled Jellal away from me. I caught my breath and stared at Jellal with confusion. "What just happened?" I thought to myself. Red eyes? Where did I saw that before?
"Erza Scarlet! Give me back my life! Give me back my honor!" Jellal cried with a different voice. It was familiar, very familiar to me but I don't know whose voice is it. I tried to remember whom. "Erza-neesama! Can't you remember me?"
Midnight... But, why? Why is he here?
"Midnight?" I touched his face as it flickered into Midnight's. I closed my left eye leaving my artificial right eye opened. It was Midnight all along, not Jellal. He slapped my hand away from his face and gave me a dirty look. "You took everything away from me"
"I... did?" I asked. He tried to step forward and slap my face but Sting and Rogue prevented him to. I tried to remember taking everything away from Midnight. Midnight, Milliana, and Wally were my best friends before my life was ruined. I tried to remember something after the father's burial but the memory was too vague for me to understand. I threw him a wistful look. "Midnight, I don't remember a thing"
"Oh yes! You won't remember a thing because you hit your head and lost half of your past! Did you even know that Milliana and Wally were crying for you? Do you even remember Angel?" he told me, trying to get out of Sting and Rogue's grab. They were forcing him to stay calm. Angel? I don't remember her at all, who is she?
"Angel? Who is she?" I asked and he roared into anger. Sting grabbed an weird thing with a needle and injected it on Midnight. He, then, fell asleep.
"I'm gonna bring him to the Magic Headquarters and tie him up until you get home," Sting said, seriously. "Rogue will keep an eye at you today, tomorrow, its gonna be my turn, Ja!" He disappeared, leaving Rogue and I.
"What just happened today?" I asked and Rogue just shrugged. I heard a honk of a bicycle. I turn my head around just to see the blue-haired-bad-timing-Jellal. I growled. "Jellal"
"Hey, Erza! I just got my luggage out of your place and sorry because I was late," he grinned at me like a fool. I was so pissed off that I had the urge to beat him up but I just punched him to the hardcore.
"JELLAL, YOU BAKA!"
School Hallway
6:50 am
"Ouchie!" Jellal pouted while massaging his cheek. He punched my shoulder hard. I glared at him, showing him that I was in no mood to be teased. "Uhhh... Sorry? What happened earlier?"
"Tell you what happened earlier," I opened the door of the Student Council Headquarters and stepped in into the dark. I reached out for the lights but I can't touch any. "Strange... Jellal-"
"Erza, where are you?" his voice resounded in the dark. The lights went out even the sunlight on the hallway. I began to panic and ran to find any solid. Instead of finding any, the only solid I found is the floor that I'm stepping. Despite of the darkness, I resolved that should find Jellal and destroy this darkness we're in.
"Jellal, I'm-" before I could finish my sentence, something grabbed my arm. I turned my head expecting to find an opponent but I found a blue-haired guy, determination and worry in his eyes. I sigh in relief as I found him. "I'm so glad that I found you"
"Me too," Jellal's voice still has the worry. I guess he had a hard time on keeping that confident face. "We have to find out what magic this is"
"Darkness," I looked around the void. I got a hunch that someone was going to attack us. Unfortunately, my hunch was right. Just after I turned my head to look at Jellal, I saw a massive, muscular, and tall man was going to attack Jellal. My instincts jump in, I pushed Jellal down to the floor and I dodged the attack. Instead of being okay, I was still attacked and my forearm was unfortunate.
"Tch! Who are you?" I demand the unknown person. He just chuckled in a mocking manner. His voice was eerie and made me shiver. I summoned my sword and pointed the tip towards the unknown guy. His muscular back is facing me. "Tell me, who are you and what do you want?!"
"Who am I?" he stood up and I swear at the corner of my eyes, he smiled. "I'm sure you are going to recognize this face" he faced me and out of the blue, a vision crossed my mind. The vision of Simon's accident.
"Simon?" I looked at him, confused. He smiled at me and raised an eyebrow. His mere black eyes were still full of worry. We ran, trying to escape to those who wanted to kill me -Mysterious people carrying torches and swords with them. Luckily, they didn't brought guns because if they do, Simon and I were probably dead. "Where are we going?"
"Somewhere," he said panting. We were still running across the forest. His hands were warm and I could feel his shivers. He was barefoot and he gave his cloak to me. "Somewhere safe for you"
We finally found people who would save us. Uncle Makarov saw us along the way with his carriage and let us ride. Simon told me he was going to stay and try to confuse the mysterious people but they saw me crying on the step of the carriage.
"I'm sorry, Simon! I'm sorry that you have to suffer like this," I cried while Simon comforted me.
"There she is!" one shouted then he threw his sword towards me. Simon saw it coming and made himself as a shield. Blood spilled as the sword pierced through his body. My eyes widened. Uncle Makarov carried Simon to the carriage and push me in and started moving.
"Simon! I'm sorry! I'm sorry! I'm sorry...!" I cried even harder. He smiled at me and stroke my hair.
"Don't you worry, I will watch you in Heaven" he said to me while stroking my hair. "That guy... that guy who gave you your surname "Scarlet" is very intelligent"
"Simon"
"Just keep in mind," he grinned at me for the last time. "I... love you, my... beautiful... Erza"
And he died...
He died like Mother and Father...
He died protecting me...
"Simon?" I said as I recognize the face. He nodded and chuckled. I froze as the little Simon I knew turned into a different Simon. In the corner of my eye, Jellal froze as well. The sight was unbelievable, it was too good to be true. I know that if Kagura find out that I saw his brother again, she would be extremely happy.
"You haven't changed, Erza" his voice resounded the room. He stretched his hand to stroke my hair but Jellal slapped it away. Jellal's eyes were fiery and full of pride. Simon's eyebrows raised as Jellal slapped it away. His eyes were moving back and forth from me and Jellal. He smiled and laughed. "Erza, you sure got a taste on guys, don't you?"
"W-What do you mean?" I felt my cheeks burn up. Jellal's face turn red that I almost thought it was a strawberry with blue leaves. I definitely know what Simon was up to. And NO, he's not my boyfriend! But I want him to be, kinda. "Its not like what you think!"
"Haha," He laughed again and stopped. He look at me in the eye as if he was warning something. "Be careful, Erza"
"W-Why? Anyways, why are you still alive?" I asked but I didn't pick my words alive. I knew it was rude to say that but I have to know what is going on. His face darkened. "I-I'm sorry, Simon. I didn't mean-"
"No, don't worry" he answered but I can still hear the pain in his voice. His mere black eyes were full of worry. "I have come here to warn you what is coming. It may not be this year but I'm sure, it will happen when the sapphire turns scarlet"
"Sapphire turns scarlet?" I asked. What I know is that sapphire stays its color until the end of time unless it is painted with other color but I know Simon wasn't like that. He usually don't joke at times he knew he shouldn't. "What will happen?"
His image began to flicker. "I have no more time," Simon said, while searching something in his pocket. He took out a sound recorder and a pair of bracelet. "The recorder for Kagura and the bracelet for you and this blue haired guy"
"What is this for?" I took the things from his hand. I gave the bracelet to Jellal and I inspected it. Simon's image continued to flicker. I looked at his black eyes. Brown eyes and black eyes made a contact.
"Tap the bracelet and it will show you where the other bracelet it," he said pointing at my bracelet. "I customized the bracelet and made the bracelets' only owner are the two of you so even it gets stolen just say "Return" and it will return to your wrist. Try it"
I threw my bracelet into the void and it was out of my sight now. Jellal glared at me and I gave him a stare that says "Oh please, I know what I am doing." I took a shaky breath and opened my mouth. "Return," I said and the bracelet appeared in my wrist. It was gold decorated with emerald and brown diamonds. Simon began disappearing.
"Thank you, Simon for everything" I said before he disappeared. He smiled at me like he always do.
"Tell Kagura that I love her and will always be," he grinned and disappeared.
"Sure"
I slid the sound recorder to my bag's secret pocket and the lights went on. I looked at Jellal who look like he was going to faint. I chuckled and took his hand. "C'mon, lets do our paper works" I pulled him to his chair.
Jellal's POV
Student Council Headquarters
11:30 am
"Gaaaaah!" I stretched my arms and exhaled deeply. It feels good stretching after tons of paperwork. I glared at Erza who looks very calm while checking her twin-tower paperwork. I stuck out my tongue and started teasing her but she didn't pay any attention. I pouted and made a "victorious" gesture "Finally! I'm done!"
"Uhhh... Errr," Lucy pointed the papers in front of me. "There is still a twin-tower paper work in front of you, Jellal"
"W-What! I just finished a twin-tower paperwork but now here comes another one?" I fell to my knees and began to sulk. Lucy, Levy, Gajeel, Natsu, Gray, and Mira glared at me with confusion. Erza... Erza is so cruel... W-Why? "WHY LORD SHALL I SUFFER THIS TWIN-TOWERS ATTACK OF PAPERWORK?"
They flinched at the instant I screamed. I didn't notice that a book was flying towards me and hit my temple. I fell to the ground, the side of my head that was hit was smoking. "SHUT UP, JELLAL! DON'T BE SO NOISY!" Erza yelled at me and got back to her share of paperwork. Mira and the others pretended they didn't saw that scenario.
"Its good that we don't have classes until the prom," Lucy said while drinking her tea and checking her share paperwork. Levy nodded in agreement. (N/A: I forgot to say Levy is the P.R.O while Gajeel is the Auditor)
"Yeah, that's right-" before Levy could finish her sentence, Gajeel butted in the conversation of the two girls.
"Yeah! I hate studying!" Gajeel almost yelled and a flying book hit him. This time its not Erza who threw it, its Levy.
"Who nominated this fool for Auditor?" Levy crossed her arms, pissed. Even she looks so weak, she is actually very intelligent so its not a surprise that she would throw a book to Gajeel because she hates people who says "I hate studies, books etc.. etc."
"Actually, Levy" Mirajane placed a cup of tea in front of me and chuckled. "Its you"
Levy became a surprised chibi and pointed a finger to herself. "Me?" She asked and we nodded. "Please excuse me and I'm gonna sulk in a corner"
We laughed and return to our work.
"Anyways," Mira started another conversation. She sat on her chair and started helping Levy with her share of paperwork. Unbelievably, she finished her twin-tower paper in just an hour. "Ms. Prez, you already have an escort for the prom? I could help you"
"Oh, she don't have one-" I said but she shut me up.
"No, I already have one"
EEEKKK! EKKK! THIS CHAPTER IS DONE!
OH MY GOSH! ERZA ALREADY HAS AN ESCORT FOR THE PROM? Can you guess who it is?
