Fairy tail Fanfic
Chapter 10 Battle!
"Fire Dragon, Iron fist!", Natsu yelled in rage. He threw himself into the corner with his hand ablaze.
*Boom!*
Rubble blew from where Natsu had attacked. Natsu left the corner but the cloaked man wasn't there.
"Huuu", Ikiru struggled to breathe. He kept coming in and out of consciousness.
"Hold on!", Miyuki fretted. She held him in her right arm and healed him with her left hand.
"Huu."
"Hold on I'll help!", Wendy called as she skidded down next to them and began to heal Ikiru.
Now a green light and a yellow light were shining over Ikiru's stomach healing the stab wound.
"Above you!", Erza called out to Miyuki.
The cloaked man shot down towards them with a knife in his hand. Preparing to strike, he swung his arm.
"Ice make Lance!", Gray yelled out as icy spears flew towards the cloaked man.
The cloaked man changed his course in mid-air to avoid the spears but also missed his chance to attack.
*Scrape*
He skidded along the ground and found himself in front of the Fairy tail guild hall.
"Lightning Dragon Roar!", Laxus screamed as a tornado of thunder came out of the guild hall and smacked into the cloaked man. The man skidded across the water.
"Nice one Laxus", Freed praised as he walked out with all the Fairy tail members.
Canna headed over to Ikiru and helped carry him inside along with Miyuki, Lucy and Wendy.
The cloaked man climbed out of the water and took a fighting stance.
"Hey old man how'd you know we needed help?", Natsu asked still angered.
"How could we not hear that scream of Miyuki's", Makarov explained.
"Right."
The Fairy tail members all prepared for battle and then incanted their own spells as Makarov commanded.
"Dragonslayers!", Makarov yelled.
"Iron Dragon"
"Fire Dragon."
"Lightning Dragon."
Gajeel, Natsu and Laxus all stood together and took deep breaths.
"Roar!", they shouted as twisters of magic energy shot through the air.
The cloaked man jumped over the Dragonslayer magic and spun in the air letting loose a flurry of knives which flew at the Fairy tail members.
"Gray!", Makarov commanded.
"Right, Ice make shield!"
The knives hit the shield of ice and bounced off in different directions. Sticking into the ground.
"Erza!", Makarov commanded again.
"Heavens wheel!", she shouted as her armour changed in a flash of bright light. "Pentagram sword!"
The cloaked man barely managed to dodge. His cloak was torn to shreds besides the hood that covered his face.
"Takeover!", three voices shouted as the Strauss family rushed in to attack.
More knives found themselves flying from the hands of the cloaked man towards Lisanna.
Mira and Elfman hesitated so that they could protect their little sister until they heard Gray shout, "Keep moving!"
A wall of ice appeared in front of Lisanna and she found herself unharmed as the knives impaled the ice.
"Satan soul!"
"Beast soul!"
The brother and sister lunged in to attack the seemingly dangerous and agile man, who was no longer cloaked as such, but head covered.
"Go my babies!", Bickslow pointed and the dolls did as commanded.
The man dodged the lunges of the two takeover wizards by jumping but was hit by what seemed like jade-green lasers from Bickslow's dolls.
The man lay injured on the floor as he struggled, "Uh."
Makarov approached him but jumped back when he heard Erza shout, "Wait!"
It was a good thing that Makarov jumped back because immediately after he did there was an explosion. The cloaked man had blown himself up.
"Uh", Makarov puffed as a drop of sweat rolled down his face. "Is everyone alright", he asked as he turned.
"Yeah."
"Yes."
"Uh huh."
"Right then I think it would be best if we all stayed here for the night and that way we can watch over Ikiru. Agreed?", Makarov announced.
"Yeah", everyone replied at the same time in a solemn tone.
There was a ruckus in the Fairy tail guild hall until they were told to get some sleep and take turns to keep watch by Makarov.
The night passed quickly and then when the morning came the noise continued again. But it was a few days before Ikiru awoke.
"Uhh", Ikiru opened his eyes.
He was immediately addressed by Miyuki who was sat next to the bed, holding his hand, "You alright?"
"Uhh", Ikiru mumbled.
"Oh yeah, you won't be able to speak until you've had a drink", Miyuki explained gently. "You've been unconscious almost a week, so you're dehydrated. I gave you some water but it was disturbing you so I stopped. If you are gonna drink it's gonna hurt like hell."
Ikiru hesitated then nodded.
Miyuki brought her hand up to Ikiru's mouth. She was holding a glass of water and pressed it up against his lips.
"Alright don't gulp it, drink slowly", Miyuki explained whilst tipping the glass so water went into Ikiru's mouth.
Ikiru began to drink the water slowly but he felt an intense pain as the water hit his stomach and he tensed up.
*Cough*
*Cough*
He choked on the water.
Miyuki took the glass away quickly and put it on a table. She pulled towards him, "Hey, hey, you alright!?"
She sat on the side of the bed and patted his back. Ikiru sat up.
Ikiru saw dirty dishes and glasses on a table across the room.
*Cough*
"Hey", Ikiru was speaking but his voice was rough. "Have you been sat in here with me all this time?"
Miyuki placed her hand on Ikiru's again. She didn't reply she just smiled.
Ikiru saw the tiredness in her eyes he knew she had been sat beside him all these days, even though he was unconscious.
Ikiru saw some sort of food stuck next to her lips and raised his hand.
He placed his right-hand on her face and wiped off the food with his thumb.
He pulled Miyuki closer until she practically fell on top of him.
"Hey, what's wrong?"
He pulled her head next to his and snuggled up to her. Then he whispered, "Thank you."
She pulled away from him and then smiled and put her forehead up to his. Then she whispered back, "You're welcome", and she kissed him on the head.
She pulled away from the bed and stood up, "Now that you're awake I'm gonna go get a shower. I'll send someone else in alright."
Ikiru smiled and nodded.
Miyuki waved as she walked backwards to the door and made her way out of the infirmary. She closed the door behind her.
*Thud*
Ikiru heard a conversation through the door.
First he heard Miyuki say something but it just sounded like mumbling. Then Erza replied to her.
"Oh he's awake", he heard Erza say. "We'd better not tell anyone else or it'll cause a commotion."
Ikiru tried to listen in but he still could only hear Erza's voice.
He heard Miyuki mumble again.
"Alright, I'll go watch him for you."
Once again Miyuki mumbled.
"It's fine, go relax for a bit."
Ikiru saw the handle turning on the door and laid back on the pillow behind him.
*Creak*
Erza walked in and shut the door behind her.
*Thud*
She was wearing a blue skirt and white shirt and something that seemed to be a blue bow-tie but Ikiru couldn't tell he was a little light-headed. He looked at her and thought that she seemed a lot more charming than usual. His face became a little blushed, for some reason he was thinking about her as a potential love interest.
"Hey", Erza greeted as she sat on the stool beside the bed and crossed her right leg over her left.
Ikiru shook his head from side to side to try to think about something else.
"Something wrong?", Erza asked.
"Uh, no... I... I'm just a little light-headed. Anyway how you been? Ya know while I've been out of it."
"Well actually I was quite worried about you and so were Wendy and Lucy so we decided not to go on that quest to capture those bandits."
"Oh thanks but you really didn't have to..."
"It's fine, don't worry about it", she interrupted.
"Well what about Natsu and Gray?"
"Well the guys were... let's say angered that they couldn't go on a mission with you so they went with Gajeel", she explained.
"Oh yeah, how'd it go?"
"Well they were back in about a day, so... let's say they absolutely destroyed any chance of those bandits being bandits anymore."
"Ehhh", Ikiru cringed. "Well that's kinda good... I guess."
"Humph", Erza smiled. "It's quite a hot day, you alright wearing that shirt?"
"Actually I think I'll take it off", Ikiru replied pulling his arms out from under the covers.
He lifted his arms but then the pain in his stomach intensified.
"Uhhh", Ikiru cringed as he dropped his arms.
"Hey you alright?", Erza asked moving her self onto the bed that Ikiru laid in.
"Err, yeah, it just stings a little."
"Here let me help", Erza told Ikiru as she put herself over him. Her legs over his. She grabbed the bottom of his shirt and slowly pulled it up to head height. Then instead of lifting his arms she pulled it off his head and down to his hands; removing it and placing it on the edge of the bed.
"There how's that?", she asked kindly with a smile on her face.
Ikiru stared directly at her face and replied slowly, "It's great, thanks."
Erza smiled again tilting her head slightly.
Ikiru blushed then tried to think of something to say.
"Err, sorry to cause any trouble", Ikiru said in a dull voice whilst lowering his head. "I've only been here a couple days too, hah."
Erza placed her arms around Ikiru and hugged him to console him. "It's alright. You're new here nobody expects you to be perfect", she explained softly.
Ikiru put his arms around Erza and tucked his neck into hers. "Thanks", he whispered.
"You're welcome", Erza whispered back. She pulled away from him and didn't kiss but gave him a peck on the cheek.
Ikiru blushed as Erza hopped off of the bed. "Well I'll come back soon with the others but you'd better get some rest, that looks pretty bad", Erza explained nodding her head at Ikiru's bandages which covered his stomach.
"Alright, see you", Ikiru said kindly with a smile.
Erza turned her head away and blushed putting her right hand up to her right cheek.
"Errm, I don't know how exactly to say this but... I... um... I kind of like you", Erza muttered and left as soon as she finished speaking. Closing the door behind her.
*Thud*
Ikiru's heart was beating fast. He had just had two pretty girls console him and kiss him.
He laid back on the pillow behind him and closed his eyes falling asleep.
Ikiru awoke to see Miyuki again who seemed to look a lot less tired and more fresh than before. The rest of the gang was stood with her.
"Uh, hey guys", Ikiru wiped his eyes awake. "Sorry didn't mean to fall asleep like that."
"It's alright, although you just spent nearly a week unconscious so I wonder how you even managed?", Miyuki addressed him. "You've slept about half a day."
"Oh yeah..."
"Alright enough with the chit-chat let's get down to business", Makarov butted in. "Ikiru you are starting your training today. The first stage you should still be able to do even while immobile. Miyuki will show you what to do and then you practice. Once you've finished the first stage I'll send you on a quest with some selected members from the meeting. Then you do stage two training and a quest and so on. Understood!"
"Uh, yes sir", Ikiru saluted. But then he cringed having hurt his arm.
"Ha-hum", Miyuki giggled.
"Well not to spoil your fun Miyuki but that attack on me just proves I'm still an assassination target", Ikiru explained rubbing his shoulder.
"You're right and that's why a member of Fairy tail will be watching over you everyday, be it Miyuki or not", Makarov announced.
"Well I don't have a problem with that but what about you guys?", Ikiru asked.
They all smiled.
"Hey we wouldn't have even been at that meeting if we didn't want you around", Natsu grinned happily.
"Aye sir!", Happy agreed.
"He's right ya know", Gray put in.
"And you did save my life", Lucy added.
Ikiru looked around to see all the smiles in the room. Then he looked down into the bed sheets and smiled himself.
Lisanna walked in through the door and leant over the bottom of the bed, "Besides you fit in here, right? We wouldn't want you to go dying on us now would we?"
A scared look came onto Ikiru's face, "Uh huh", he mumbled.
Mira laughed and then everyone else did as well.
"Alright, alright", Makarov chuckled. "But on a more serious matter you'll be getting your guild mark soon so if you want it you'll have to prove to me that you deserve it."
"Right!", Ikiru replied sternly and confidently.
Everyone in the room looked at Ikiru directly.
Makarov coughed to bring attention to himself.
"Ikiru Ikaruga, your training, begins now!"
