Chapter 10: Stay a Shadow or Become a Light
"I am a supporting actor, a shadow. But a shadow will become darker if the light is stronger and it will make the white of the light stand out. As the shadow of the main actor, I will make you, the light, the number one in Japan."
-Tetsuya Kuroko to Kagami Taiga,

During the events of Nirvana everyone fought with everything they had. And they all eventually won against Oracion Seis. Lavi and Wendy had grown closer throughout the adventure.
But now that everything was over.
'What happens next?'
That's what Lavi was thinking as he looked over at Wendy, who was happily talking with everyone. He sighed and looked up at the fading night sky. 'We'll be separated again...if only I could stay with her.'
He looked over at Jellal and Erza, recognizing the emotion in her eyes, the same way Lenalee had use to look at him. Seeing that made him feel heartbroken and wish for that dream that will never come true.
Lavi closed his eyes and sighed. 'If only things were that simple...'
Suddenly people, who could be consider Police in this world, came to arrest Jellal. Seeing Erza's reaction Natsu started the riot that almost got them all arrested. Lavi knew that going against them would be troublesome and it would never change the end result.
Erza stopped them and let Jellal go. He could sense her heartbreak as clear as day. As Erza ran off, nobody tried to follow, knowing she need time alone.
Lavi probably knew that the most, out of all of them there. He has had his heart shattered into millions of pieces by the death of his nakama. But he would never let go of the memories of them, cause they are too important. Also he had something of thier's that were still living, Wendy, Natsu, and Gajeel, who he would always protect to his last breath.
"The sunrise..." Twyla landed on his shoulder, jolting him out of thoughts. "...it's as bright and warm as Erza..."
Curiosity, filled his eyes as he noticed a faraway look in her bright blue eye. "Twyla...are you seeing something I'm not?"
She shook her head, not taking her gaze from the scarlet sky. "I don't know...but...Erza sure has had a hard life."
He looked into the sunrise with her, not wanting to pry on something she wasn't willing to tell, besides..he could tell that she still didn't know anything yet.
Lavi did recognize by the tone of her voice that, Erza had a similar past, making Twyla sympathize with her.
"There are always hard times in life. Life is just cruel like that. But we, humans, will always overcome the hard times with the help of our nakama. Even if we accept the help or not." Lavi smiled sadly remembering the times that Allen, Kanda, Lenalee, and all of the others had helped him time and time again. "Afterward, will be the greatest times of our lives, the enjoyment of just being together and having fun. When your with your nakama, life is such a treasure."
'Should I stay a shadow and run away from it all or become a light that will light their future paths?'
A/N: Hoped you enjoyed this chapter! I'm sorry for it being so short. But it's pretty good so it makes for last chapter. Yeah, so I skipped the whole Nirvana Arc on purpose, really I want to get that 'part' just as much as you guys do. And doing the whole arc would have taken too much time and besides I just lost ideas for it. I was planning on doing the part where Wendy finds about her guild being 'fake' but, then it wouldn't fit the chapter title. That's for next chapter.
I think I'm losing interest in my fanfics just because I haven't even read/watch/ or done anything (except fanfics) about D. Gray Man ever since the last manga chapter came out. But Lavi will always be my favorite character to write about so, I won't be quitting any time soon.
