Levy looked up at Gajeel making eye contact with him. Jet and Droy came out of the shadows and looked at Gajeel, "What did you do?!" Jet questioned kneeling beside Levy. He helped her up and she shoved him away.
"Jes is close." She fell back to her knees as she whispered this. "She's not happy, is she?"
"That'd be correct." Jes said coming up behind Gajeel.
Gajeel turned quickly, "Who are you?!" He questioned looking at her closely. He smelled the same smell that was on Levy the night before. He stared at her.
The woman ignored Gajeel, "Come here, Levy." She said. Her smirk scared Levy.
Levy got up and walked towards Jes. Her knees felt like she was going to fall at any moment. She passed Gajeel and their shoulders brushed. "Gajeel..." His name slipped from her lips and memories flooded back that she didn't remember. Pinned against a tree...
Jes curled her index finger and put it under Levy's chin and she placed her thumb on her chin and made her look up at her. She looked into Levy's eyes and Levy looked terrified. "You've failed again." Jes said darkly.
Levy tried to get away but she was terrified. She couldn't move, self-defense was not something she'd be able to do. She glanced over at Jet and Droy who looked as terrified as she felt. Her eyes darted over to Gajeel who looked pissed. Finally, her eyes met Jes's again. "Y-you haven't let me..." she trailed off finding it pointless. "I'm sorry," she looked back at Gajeel as Jes threw her to the side squishing her to the ground with her gravity magic.
Gajeel was pissed and wanted nothing more than to punch the woman, Jes was it?, in the face for touching his girl. When Levy's eyes met him, he saw the terror in them. He watched as she was thrown to the ground. Jes was making her way to him. He blinked looking at Levy, "So you did this to them?" he asked as she pushed Jet and Droy down.
"Of course." She replied with a smile. "I know Levy is your weakness. I'm only sad I didn't get Lucy too. Natsu would've been easier to take out. I'll have to deal with him personally. After you two are out Fairy Tail will easily fall without Laxus there."
Gajeel stared at her. "Don't underestimate Fairy Tail." He said glancing at Levy who had a look of realization. "We're going to kick your ass." He punched Jes who fell back. Gajeel chuckled. "Seems I overestimated you."
"Gajeel," He heard off to the side. It was Pantherlily. "What's going on?" Gajeel looked over and saw him aiding Levy. She dashed to Gajeel hugging him tightly. Jes was still on the ground.
"All the lies." Levy cried into his chest, "All the lies, and memory wiping. Gajeel, I love you and I'm so, so sorry." She hugged him tighter as his arms wrapped around her. Jet and Droy stood next to him suddenly.
"We're sorry too." Jet spoke for himself and Droy, who was fat again. Jes stood up glaring at Gajeel.
"This isn't over." She screamed at him. Lily came up behind her and slid his sword across her back making her fall toward in pain.
"I think it is." The exceed said going back to his small cat form.
Levy had so many things to tell Gajeel. There were so many apologizes she needed to make and no time to do so. She looked up into Gajeel's eyes and he smiled down at her, "You won't have anymore false memories and lies in your head anymore." He whispered. He then picked her up throwing her over his shoulder.
"Gajeel!" She yelled blushing brightly. She squirmed a little but he carried her. "Put me down!"
"Nah." He said leaving Jet, Droy, and Lily behind. "There is a little girl who has missed her mother for many months now and would like to see her."
"Darcy..." She whispered looking over her at where they were headed. "The woods?"
"I took her to Aquamist like we'd always planned." He smirked.
