Lucys P.O.V.
As Happy and I ran three the forest trying to find Natsu I couldn't help but think of what just happened. I can't believe I just said that! But.. I never imagined he would trust me enough to show me.. I am soo happy! I mean I thought of what he might look like but to see the real thing was a hundred times better. That s when I noticed something pink dash past us. Damn it. "Natsu!" I yelled. He skidded to a stop and turned around to face Happy and I, and said "Luce?" I sighed with relief. At least he is ok.
"What the hell were you thinking?! Don't you realize how dangerous that was! I know you can handle yourself but it's not like back home Natsu." I lectured. Natsu rubbed his head and looked away as after I said that. I sighed "I'm sorry for yelling at you. I was just worried about you. So Happy told me you were tracking a scent? Did you find it?" "No.." he replied. Huh why is he acting differently. "Come on Natsu you can tell me." I smiled. He rubbed his head and said "I was trying to find.. me in this world.. I mean i already meet Master, Erza, and you." Huh he wanted to find himself? But that's not the whole story.. I know he is still holding something back. "What would you of done once you found him or her?" I asked hoping that he would open up. His cheeks got red and he rubbed the back of his head. "I wanted to ask them to look out for you for me.." he.. wanted to.. "Natsu you didn't have to do that." I replied.
"Yes I did. Lucy your my best friend and I'm not going to be here to help you and that scares me." Natsu yelled. I stepped forward and wrapped my arms around him and said "your my best friend too Natsu.. and it does scare me a little bit not having you or the rest of the guild behind me but I know you guys would still have my back No matter the distance.. and that gives me the strength and courage to keep fighting. Plus it's not like I don't have your alternante selfs here to help me out." Natsu wrapped his arms around me and said "it's going to be weird having the guild back without you being there." That's right Erza did tell me they were going to reinstate the guild. I stepped back and smiled "I will always be apart of the guild even though I'm not there. Just don't be to reckless." Natsu smiled "Haha I can't promise." He smiled showing his teeth haha now that's the Natsu I know. "Well we better get you guys back home." I stated while grabing my keys. "Awe but I'm so close to finding me. I know they are close by." Natsu pouted. I shook my head "No Natsu. But how about this I'll look around for a bit and if I find somebody I'll have Virgo or Loki tell you okay?" He sighed "fine." So I said goodbye to Natsu and Happy one more time.
Man it hurts to say goodbye. Once they were gone I realized where I was. I should be close to it. I walked a little bit further to find a river and a giant water fall. I wonder if it's still here. I walked up to the waterfall and there was a small ledge leading behind the water fall. I walked into the cave that was hidden. Man I thought it was a lot bigger in here but that's because I was a lot smaller then I am now. I stoped instantly when I saw someone with black hair standing in front of me. It can't be but it has to be I mean we are the only two to know about this cave that I know of. I couldn't control myself and I ran up to him and wrapped my arms around him. I can't believe he is here! I was shoved into the wall of the cave and he pulled out a sword and lightning covered the blade within seconds.
"Who are you?" A low voice asked. I laughed "I know it's been awhile but this isn't how you greet an old friend right Itachi?" After I said that I took a step forward and poked him in the middle of his forehead like we used to do to each other all the time. It kind of became like a secret handshake between us. "Where is he?!" The voice asked. Huh? Who? "What are you talking about?" I asked. "Where is he? Where is Itachi!" Wait! I took a closer it can't be! "Sasuke?!" I said out of shock. I pushed the sword out of the way and stepped closer and gave him another hug. "I can't believe how big you've gotten! " I stepped away and smiled "I knew you would grow up to be a handsome young man." He stood there shocked "How do you know me?" I laughed "Well of course you wouldn't remember me you were just a baby last time I saw you. I was friends with your brother and when we he wanted to train but he was watching you I would babysit. Haha you loved watching him."
That's when I heard a voice behind us " I didn't expect you to have company." A chill went down my spine. No it can't be.. why him? Why now? "Come on Sasuke let's get going before they figure out we are here." He place his hand on Sasuke's shoulder. It made my blood boil. I slapped his arm away and got in between them. "I won't let you take him anywhere Orochimaru!" That s when he laughed "Haha it's not like I am taking him against his will he wants to be with me." "I don't believe you!" I replied. "No he knows the only way he could get his revenge and kill his brother he needs my help to attain the power to do so." I looked back at Sasuke and said "Do you know why he did what he did? Do you know his side of the story? Please come back to the village with me and I promise to help you find him so I can help you get all the answers because I know in my heart there is something else that's really important that we don't know." I bagged Sasuke but he stayed quite. "Haha and what good would that do? You don't have the strength to defeat me or him."
My hands formed into fists."I will not let you have Sasuke! I stoped you all those years ago form you getting your hands on him and I am not going to back down now!" Orochimaru had a shocked look on his face. "He killed our whole family and only left me alive so I could avenge them!" Sasuke stated his voice was low and angry. So I turned my head to look back at Sasuke "I can't believe he would kill his whole family and leave you alive! The reason why he probably didn't kill you is because he loved you to much to do So!" and thats when i could tell Sasuke was thinking bout what I said and that he didn't know what to believe. I turned back towards Orochimaru and said " Sasuke I'll show you the true power of protecting someone you care about. And how it will win over hatred everytime." This isn't going to end peacfully I knew that the instant I saw Orochimaru. I did some random hand signs and used my star dess Leo. My clothes changed into a long black evening gown with a slit on the left side going up to my knees.
Some how I managed to push Orochimaru back out of the cave and then I grabed one of my keys. "Gate of the golden bull, I open thee. Taurus!" I summoned. A bright light appeared and a giant bull with an axe appeared. "Wrong moooove making her mad.!" Taurus said as he swung his axe. "Keep him busy for me Taurus!" I commanded. "Anything for you!" Taurus replied. "Becareful!" I yelled while Orochimaru almost hit Taurus with a sword that came out of his mouth. That s when I started the spell
"Survey the Heavens, Open the Heavens... All the stars, far and wide... Show me thy appearance... With such shine. Oh Tetrabiblos..." the sky turned grey and bright orbs surrounded us as I continue the spell "I am the ruler of the stars...Aspect become complete... Open thy malevolent gate. Oh 88 Stars of the heaven... Shine! Urano Metria!"
The orbs of light around me all shot towards Orochimaru. Once the smoke was gone I saw Orochimaru laying face down on the ground. Yay it... before I could finish that thought Orochimaru started to get up. Damn it! But once he got to his knees he fell again. He is down for the count. So I started to turn around and I walked towards Sasuke. "Why aren't you going to finish me?" Orochimaru asked weakly. I turned my head to look back at him and said " A wise man once told me 'Today's enemy might be tomorrow's best ally.' I choose to live by those words. Plus I have already proved to you that I am the stronger one and I got my point across so there is no need for someone to lose their life."
That's when a man with silver hair and glasses appeared next to man knelt down next to him. They whispered to each other. Then the man asked "Sasuke, Orochimaru said he would forgive you if you come with us now." I looked at Sasuke and he didn't move or say a word. The man and Orochimaru left quickly. "Are you crazy?" Sasuke asked while he looked away. I laughed "only a little haha. So I take it that you want to find out the whole truth of why Itachi did what he did?" He just stayed quite.
"Well let me grab something really quick and we could head back to the village. I'm sure there are some people who missed you." I smiled and walked back into the cave to grab a book. Once i walked back out of the cave i was shocked he was still there. The way he was acting made it seem like he didn't want to go. "Okay let's go." I said and lead the way but in a short distance I almost collapsed but I caught myself. Sasuke looked at me. Shit. "Haha you wouldn't think it but I'm such a cluts" I said trying to cover. He just started walking. So he is the mystery type huh? I sighed. I must of used to much magic during the fight. I am luck I had enough to even fight because ever since the fight with Jackle I haven't gained my strength back fully and this was proof of that. Hopefully we can get back to the village.
Kakashi's P.O.V
While I was fixing a roof of a house that was destroyed the sky turned to grey. For some reason my stomach felt like it was trying to form a knot.. I have a bad feeling. The grey sky only lasted a minute or two which made me more nervous. What if something happened to Lucy? I took a deep breath. After I finish this roof I'll go see if she is home cause she should be back by now or at least by the time to get there.
Once I finished I rushed home hoping that she would be there to greet me but when I opened the door she was no where to be seen. Actually it looks like no one has been here since I left so there is no chance she came back and left again. What kind of trouble could she be into now?! I rushed out the door hoping to find her somewhere in the village. I checked everywhere in the village but no sign of her I even asked a few people that she knows if they have seen her. I should go to Tsunade to let her know and afterwards hopefully I can find her. I opened the door and said "Tsunade I can't find Mieko. She was supposed to be back by now." Tsunade had a worried expression after I said that. "What's up? Do you know something?" I asked. She sighed "there have been sightings of Orochimaru." I stood there in shock for
a moment. What would happen if she got caught up with Orochimaru? I shook my head no I can't think like that. "I'm going.." before I could finished Sakura and Naruto ran in. "Lady Tsunade! Is it true there have been sighting of Sasuke around here?" Sakura exclaimed. "Ah.." before Tsunade could even finished another person rushed in "Lady Tsunade!" You could tell she was getting frustrated. "WHAT!" Tsunade yelled. "Sasuke Uchia is at the east gate and there is a fight in process but.." the ninja stated. Naruto and Sakura burster out the door quickly no doubt they are going to the east gate. "But what?!" Tsunade asked loudly. "Ah well Sasuke isn't the one fighting well I wouldn't even call it a fight but there is a blonde haired woman with him that is fighting. I think I have seen her around the village recently." Once he finished saying that I knew who it had to be.! I rushed to the east gate instantly after hearing that.
