Chapter 15

Gajeel pov

He should've paid more attention to what he said yes to. He had now been staring at a girl, who was half naked, who wasn't the shrimp, for the past hour and he didn't know what to do about it. Last night he'd accidentally given the ok to helping the shrimp with her work. Though he was able to help translate more of the runes in one hour than the bookworm could've gotten in a week he definitely didn't enjoy it. He was hot from the long sleeve shirt,latex gloves and face mask he had to wear. He was tired of the creepy absent minded stare the blind chick was giving him. He hated the library and lastly he was pissed that said bookworm wasn't paying much attention to him.

Rana: "You could talk you know."

He was so irritated that he didn't notice the chick talking at first.

Gajeel: "huh?"

Rana: "Talk… I can feel your frustration and it's annoying me."

This chick was great at pissing him off. He was still pissed at the comment she said about him and an 'iron'. He wasn't a damn domestic.

Gajeel: "I don't like you so why the fuck would I tell you anything?"

Levy looked up from her rune book right then to grab the notes he'd taken on the red outlined section of that chick's body. The shrimp decided to use permanent marker to section off her body in manageable chunks so she could organize it later.

Levy: "Gajeel be nice to her."

It pissed him off even more that before he could come up with a come back she started working again.

Rana: "She's gonna be like that for a while so talk."

I growled at the chick but I decided to change the topic of the conversation if she was gonna be persistent.

Gajeel: "how come you had to come out of that crystal then?"

He'd put enough malice and sass in his tone that if lil had been there he'd have tossed him outside.

Rana: "I don't know actually. It wasn't my magic to begin with."

I choked at the honest answer I got from the kid. I was expecting some sass back from her but she just surprised me.

Gajeel: "Then whose was it?"

Rana: "Dia's probably, or Adonna."

Levy: "Who are they?"

I was trying to figure out if the shrimp was listening the entire time or if she looked up randomly to make sure I was still working. I wasn't sure cause she kept on joining in at the interesting parts.

Rana: "My sister and her dragon. I wonder what happened that caused her to do it?"

Gajeel: "So yer sister an' you 'er both dragon slayers then."

Levy: "Wait what? I heard from Wendy she thought she might be but I never found out for sure, so how did you know?"

Gajeel: "Found out from Makarov."

Rana: "So you're the one he wanted to tell."

I gave the black haired girl an annoyed look.

Levy: "What type of dragonslayer was she? What type are you for that matter?"

The bookworm started putting away her work finally. I was wondering how long she was gonna keep this up.

Rana: "She was the crystalline dragonslayer. I'm the Siren dragonslayer. I control water and sound."

Levy pov

I was fairly surprised that she got Gajeel to talk without too much fuss. This morning when he got to the guild I grabbed him and her and practically dragged them to the library. I never really talked to Rana when It was just us because it's hard for me to translate and talk at the same time but since Gajeel was here all I was doing was organizing the translated parts he gave me in a way that would help me fill in the missing pieces of her Rune tattoos. They were incredibly interesting to look at and from far away they seemed to only be music notes but from close up they were actually lines of a rune trap in the shape of music notes.

I'd been paying attention to most of their conversation and chiming in when I heard something interesting. It was informative to say the least but what really bothered me was I didn't know her at all before this. I had no idea she had family or what magic she used. I wondered why she wasn't even looking for them yet.

Levy: "Where is your family?"

Rana looked agitated at the mere mention of her family.

Rana: "I don't know."

I heard her voice crack when she said 'know'. That really bothered me to hear that. I wondered why she hadn't even bothered looking yet if she didn't know.

Levy: "Why haven't you bothered to look yet?"

Thanks again to those who fave and follow.
