Hi guys! Another update! Truth to be told, most of you got a hang of what I was gonna do so I changed all of it! Have fun reading! This isn't proof read!
Iced Wings
Chapter 11
WHAT-!?
He pressed the trigger.
The bullet pulsating with magic was released.
His whole arm was burned because of the devastating power.
He saw the bullet connect with Makarov's chest.
Makarov's body, dead body, fell down on the floor.
Suddenly two people emerged from the cupboard and storage room. They tackled him to the ground before he was even able to shoot another bullet.
"YOU BASTARD! YOU BETRAYED US!" Laxus roared as he punched the teen beneath him.
"Talk about news flash sunshine…There wasn't ever a bond between us for me to break it" Raven answered back coldly. Another fist collided with his face but he cared less.
His purpose for living was met. There was no reason for him to live anymore. He didn't care if this sparky killed him right now.
"Master?! Master, are you alive?! GRAMPS!?" Gildarts yelled as he shook the old man's body.
"He's dead," Raven's cold voice echoed in the room.
"HOW CAN YOU BE SO SURE?!"
"That bullet was charged with 'Essence of Darkness' and my own magic, of course he is dead. Nobody can live after they are hit by that"
"WHY YOU BASTARD!"
Before laxus could punch the assassin once more, Gildart's hand stopped him.
"Stop Laxus"
"But he deserves to di-!"
"I SAID STOP IT! Our main priority is to take master to Porlyushica and not to beat him to death" Gildarts said as he glared at the emotionless teen under the blonde haired guy.
Cursing under his breath, Laxus got up and took Makarov in his arms. Silent tears trailed down his cheeks as he looked at the non-breathing body of his grandfather.
"I will be going then" he said before zapping away and towards Porlyushica's place. In his wake a broken wall was left behind.
Gildarts looked down at the assassin still lying on the ground, then at the wolf pup strewn across the room because of the explosion from the bullet, unconscious.
He looked towards the frozen over door and knew that Erza and Mirajane must be outside, waiting, like they had planned. He broke it down and just as he knew, the two girls entered the room. But the pink haired dragon slayer was with them too.
"Where is gramps?!" Natsu asked as soon as he entered.
"He's dead"
Natsu looked down and spotted Raven on the ground, his whole right arm charred and his face swollen from the beating Laxus had given him.
"What did you just said?!"
"He's dead, I killed him." came the cold reply.
"WHAT-!? HOW CAN YOU DO THAT GRA-!?"
"Raven"
"YOU BLODDY BASTARD! HOW DARE YOU DO THAT! YOU RE-GAINED YOUR MEMORIES, SO WHY THE FUCK DID YOU DO THAT!"
"There were never any memories for me to re-gain and I did that because my master ordered me to"
A sword was placed on Raven's throat. He looked up to see the scarlet haired Titania holding it, her features screaming one thing…'You are dead'
He looked towards his side to see Salamander being held back by Gildarts. He was ready to tear him to shreds or maybe burn to crisp.
"Now, I am gonna do the questioning and you are going to answer each and every one of them truthfully, am I clear?"
"As if, do you really think I will tell you all the classified info about my guild?"
"I said 'I' am going to do the questioning! Is there something wrong with your ears!"
Natsu flinched at the angry tone used by Erza and silently thanked the god that it wasn't him that was being the prey to her wrath.
"I just said I am not going to tell you about my guild!"
"Why you-!"
Erza raised her fist and was just going to beat the heck out of the raven haired teen when Mira, in Satan soul' stopped her.
"Erza we need him alive and fine for interrogating and not half passed out" she said, trying to calm the raging queen of fairies.
"Okay fine" Erza said through gritted teeth.
A whimper was heard in the room.
Raven immediately scrambled up to his feet and went beside the whimpering pup. He took him in his arms and petted his head a little. Cyan just liked his burnt skin lightly, trying to provide some comfort to him too. Raven noticed the lacryma wires were all broken and burnt, probably from the explosion from the bullet. And now they were digging in Cyan's soft flesh.
Without thinking much, he just freed Cyan from them. His buddy was more important to him than those bombs…and he didn't have any use for them now, anyways.
"You love him, right?" Mira questioned. She had always noticed, this past week, that whenever Raven was with Cyan, his inhumanly cold expression changed into somewhat that of warmth or some kind of happy feeling.
"Of course" Raven replied.
"Any reason?"
Raven looked skeptically at the white haired mage who was back in her human form.
"He understands me"
Mira caught the sight of the look of fondness that appeared on his face while he smoothed the wolf's fur. Maybe this little creature can become their key to bring Gray back.
"Don't stare" Raven said to her.
"Hai?"
"I said, don't stare. You are making him feel uneasy"
"Oh okay, sorry"
Raven's head shot up just as her words escaped her mouth. No one had spoken to him like that, ever. Especially the ones whose relatives he had just killed. But maybe that was just her trick…maybe they just want him to believe them and open up…he can't let that happen!
"Let's go to Porlyushica's, she may need to know what had hit master" Gildarts said. Erza and Mira nodded in approval before grabbing a hold of Raven and dragging him up to his feet.
"You are going to come with us" Erza ordered. Raven shook of their hold on his arms and stood up on his own.
"No need to drag me, I will come without being tossed around like a sack" he said, dusting off his clothes before straightening up. Cyan was still snuggling closer to his chest as they walked through the forest.
Soon the medic's house appeared in front of them.
Gildarts' knocked on the door which was opened by Laxus. His eyes were blood shot. He looked at the lot and just as his eyes fell on the assassin, a look of pure hate covered his face. Raven just remained as impassive as ever, he had seen that kinda look being directed towards him so many times to keep count of. It was nothing new to him.
"How is master?" Mira asked.
"He will be okay if he will explain everything to Porlyushica" Laxus said before harshly grabbing onto Raven's arm and dragging him inside. In all this, Cyan fell on the ground. He cried out in pain as he felt the hard floor collide with his wounded body. This snapped something inside the raven head.
He pushed Laxus off him and immediately rushed to the aid of the baby wolf.
"Don't you dare hurt him in any way or you will see a side of me you that will make you wish you were blind" Raven said, pure anger and hatred lacing his voice as he entered the small place.
"Are you Raven?" Porlyushica asked the teen who just entered the room she was sitting in. Makarov was in another room with the others for his safety. Raven just nodded in approval. "What did you shoot Makarov with?"
"Silver Lancer"
"What is it?"
"Umi Oracle's last creation"
"Who is she?"
"My master's daughter"
"Who is your master?"
"Keith Oracle"
"Is he the one who ordered you to kill Makarov?"
"Of course"
"What kind of magic bullet did you hit Makarov with?"
"'Essence of Darkness' fused with my own magic."
"Where is your guild located?"
"Aren't you going too far with the questioning, old woman? Don't cross the limit or it will not be good for you"
Suddenly something made contact with his head, really hard, and he felt his world tilt until everything blacked out.
"Oi humans!" she called out. Hearing her call, Erza and Natsu arrived.
"Keep him under watch and don't you dare let him get away" she ordered. Both Natsu and Erza nodded.
"But did you found about anything that can revive master?" Erza asked.
"Oh yes, I have already found the way by which we can revive Makarov"
"And that is…"
"Moon Drip"
Review? Please! I just absolutely adore them! Sooo what do you guys think about this? I wasn't gonna kill Makarov but I just watched the latest episode of FT and got the idea of using moon drip as a remedy to cancel out the lacryma's magic. And as an apology for the vicious cliffhanger in the last chapter…I decided not to leave you hanging like the last time…if I wanted then maybe I would've left it at: "And that is…"
So yeah…the next update may take longer…'may' being the keyword…
This fic is nearing its end…the relation between Keith and Makarov is gonna be revealed soon so stay tuned!
