Okay, Guys, I'm going to attempt to do 1st Person POV. Well, I've written it, don't like it, cba changing it, so here you go! I'll just have an epic fight scene in the next chapter. Noir just sounds so depressed in this... I'll start writing the next chapter now but... I probably won't be out till tomorrow, so cya whenever guys!
The ground felt dead beneath my feet, I didn't feel connected, it seemed to make me feel void of hope inside, as if something was sapping my dark, dark soul of all the light it had left in it, even if that was a small amount in itself. I hated this feeling, even though my apocalyptic side relished in it, took power from it, I was still an earth mage, and this lack of connection was driving me somewhat insane. Then there was this internal conflict going on inside, and that was not helping the matters, at all.
The village was void of life, no reminisce remained, even thought it clearly had only been left recently. There were no bodies, none above or below the ground, it was strange, demons killed, even if they were meant for another purpose they would kill, Zeref had told me as much but I felt no death, no loss of life, just emptiness. Living magic, was as it said, giving life through magic, I should at least have been able to feel the demon but somehow I did not.
Creating a demon was no small feat, it took time and effort, lots of magic and then the even greater feat was not letting it take over you, I'd only ever created one demon, but I soon sent it back to hell. They didn't fit in my world, not the one I lived in now nor my perfect world, even if that one of chaos. Truly, my perfect world would be one I could let my powers roam free from my body, and now worry about the consequences but with great power, comes great effort and sometimes, I just wanted to crawl back into bed, sleep for another week and tell the world it can go fuck itself.
I was worried about Lucy, despite it all, I had promised to train her and keep her safe, and I wasn't willing to break that promise, especially considering who I made it to. They'd hand me my ass on a golden platter, and that was just the leader. All things considered, Laxus being so close to her worried me, if he was to mate with her, she'd be thrust into the cruel reality faster than I could ever perceive, and I would have to take action immediately, even when she was not ready to take on the responsibilities she never agreed to take, the same way I never wanted them.
I suddenly felt a barrier pass over me, and heard three bodies connect with it, I turned and sighed, watching Gajeel rub his head, and Gray scowl at the barely visible wall that split us. Wendy and Freed on the other hand were busy trying to break it, but it was useless, dark magic was imbued into this, that was the only reason I could pass while they could not.
"Perhaps you should try to find a way through and I should continue alone." I said, tired, bored and annoyed as they all shook their heads. Fairy Tail never left someone on their own, it frustrated me to no end, I didn't want them to get into a full on fight with a dark mage or a demon, but apparently that's what they wanted to do, some people just needed to sort their priorities out.
"How 'bout you hang fire and let us try to get through?" Gajeel said, and I rolled my eyes before sticking my tongue out at him.
"You just don't want to miss out on the fighting." I said, as I placed my hands on the barrier. "Well, let's blow this fucker to hell."
"No!" Levy shouted. "You don't know what precautions are on it."
"I'm immortal; do I look like I care?" I responded. "Nothing can kill me, not even decapitation. I'm like a vampire, but ten thousand times better and I don't sparkle."
"You're thinking of a fairy Violet." Gajeel said and I just smiled, as I let my purple magic crash into the barrier, something fizzled and something else popped, making me jump before the barrier fell to useless dust on the floor.
"Was that so hard?" I asked.
"What was the fizzling and the popping?" Pantherlily asked as he looked around.
"Someone cooking sausages?" Nyx offered, cuddling into my shoulder, I swear I sometimes didn't even realise she was there, it kind of scared me how she popped up out of nowhere. I mean seriously, if she ever did turn totally crazy and tried to kill me, she would have got me before I even knew what hit me. Well, considering Nyx it would be a brick, but either way.
"Shall we continue?" I asked, with a slight smile as Gray rolled his eyes at me, muttering something along the lines of show off.
"So what are we looking for exactly?" Freed asked.
"You're looking for Runes, I'm looking for Demons and Dark Mages, Gray and Gajeel are here as brute force, since together they couldn't equate to half of one of our brains." I said, not looking at the Slayer who glared daggers into my head, and the Ice mage who was most likely considering whether he should freeze me, and face the wrath of Lucy, and me, or just continue to glare at me.
Levy began to speak but stopped, falling to her knees, shocking us all to a stop before she mumbled out. "Well this is weird."
"Give me a heart attack why don't you shrimp." Gajeel grumbled as I knelt by her, brushing some dust of a new, not even slightly worn tablet that had inscription on it.
"This is for the ritual..." I said as I began to read. "Nam vitae semper a loop. A triginta et octo in aeternum loop. Vivere, aut mori nunquam vero sileo."
"Forever life is a loop. From eighteen to thirty in an everlasting loop. To live, to restart but to never end or die." Levy translated. "Then it changes language, I don't know this one."
"Como de mañá á noite, vou empezar, e logo vou rematar, pero só para comezar unha vez máis." I said, frowning slightly. "Like Morning to Night, I shall begin, and then I will end, but only to begin once again."
"What's the matter?" Freed asked.
"He's going about it all wrong." I said with a sigh. "This isn't immortality; it's putting his life in a loop. It's so much more difficult than the immortality ritual, and it can backfire just as easily. Mavis, am I the only sane dark mage to walk these lands?"
"Well, dark mage and sane don't really go hand in hand Violet." Gajeel said, earning a two fingered gesture.
"There's no point in breaking it, the way he's done it means it's written in the air." Freed said as he looked over my shoulder. "I believe you need to destroy the key components."
"Destroy it anyway. It can be used again by another mage." Levy said, Freed paused for a moment and then nodded, before Gajeel put an iron fist through the tablet, breaking it into one thousand pieces, before I let them sink far into the ground, to never be seen again.
"Well, it's not like we weren't going to destroy it either way." A voice said, I turned quickly, to see white haired, silver eyed male mere metres from us. He smelt of nothing, but at the same time, he stank like a demon slayer.
"It's like pigs to a slaughter." I said as I reached inwards and brought forth colours of perfect chaos to light my hands in a brilliant disarray of pandemonium.
"The Apocalyptic Dragon slayer?" He said, his eyes studying closely before he nodded it what seemed to be approval. "Interesting, and defiantly worth the energy to fight."
"I believe he is the Chaos Demon Slayer, I heard about if from a friend of mine, but he is supposed to have been raised and taught by a true demon." Freed said.
"Leave, find the item, you'll know it when you see it, destroy it, hopefully Laxus will have destroyed the demon. There will be more demons protecting it." I said, my eyes trained on this person in front of me.
The rest of the group were reluctant, but even Fairy Tail knew that sometimes, you had to let me fight alone, I wasn't going to make sure I didn't hit you, damn if you got in my way, sucks to be you.
I'm not going to lie, I hate writing is 1st Person POV, maybe you guys like it, tell me what you think!
