Task 3: legs (Part 2)


"What…" The girl tried to formulate a question in shaking voice.

She was clearly frightened but otherwise seemed unhurt, chunks of destroyed wall did not reach her.

This was an immense relief for Gajeel, who now was happy, furious and confused at the same time. Pushing all these extremely unsettling emotions aside he concentrated on task at hand. Several of them, actually:

1. Check and remove Levy from his messed up room.

2. Make sure his cat is all right.

3. Find his guitar and Shorty's book and if either damaged, hammer a several iron nails in Salamander's empty head.

4. Fix this mess, (how, god dammit, this fire freak manages to destroy such amount of things all the time?).

5. KILL idiot in a very very very painful way.

'Yeah, that's the plan. Now execution.' Gajeel pondered, quickly making his way inside, past dusty Salamander who just extracted himself from pile of bricks. Then the last insult of Fire Dragon Slayer plopped in his mind.

'Asshole wants to know what Shorty was doing in my bed, huh?'

"Oh, I'll tell you what people usually doing in beds! They are sleeping, fucking brainless imbecile!"

Massive iron fist heavily lowered on top of Natsu's head, Gajeel jumped through fallen Fire Slayer and rushed to Levy.

He'll tear Salamander to shreds later. Main priority first. Shorty!

Little time ago in the backyard when the wall was still in its place

"It's you… you, who complicate it" Pantherlily huffed.

The brawl became pretty intense while ago, both of them received several rather hard hits, but either wasn't going to back up.

"Just few steps, you usually too fast with your strides, decent stand stance, that's means legs aren't so wide…" Lily almost missed another punch thrown his way.

"So now you unsatisfied with my strides, huh? And how should I move: slow, smooth like some shitty pansy freak?" Gajeel growled between hits. "Who do you think I am? Fucking ballerina?"

"You got it wrong…"

Gajeel was so pissed that Lily really had hard time to dodge his attacks. And he evidently didn't hear single word of what Lily was trying to explain.

"I'll walk as I like! I'll stand as I like. You got that? Not? I'm fucking not care, Lily!"

And as Slayer finally cut distance and they started close fight with their bare hands, two more Fairy Tail mages somehow appeared, and, as was customary in this wonderful, noisy and crazy guild, instantly joined, fueled by desire to participate in some fun.

Gajeel and Lily were so engrossed that they only noticed addition to their company when ungodly weight of Elfman was literally dropped on their heads. Next the fireball came, caused a little explosion in the middle of their fighting mass.

Gajeel opened his mouth to activate his iron dragon roar, but remembered about Levy and rushed toward pyromaniac hopping to stop him without more deafening noise. Futile hope, of course, cause if Natsu was in fight he was in it until everything reachable was sufficiently broken.

Iron Dragon Slayer watched in silent horror as flaming like huge fireball Salamander had aimed at Lily, missed and hit Elfman instead, sending their joined massive form straight into house wall.

Impact.

Crash.

Cloud of dust.

Shriek.

Frightened face of Levy.

Minus one bedroom's wall.

And after all this mess this fire asshole has a nerve to inquire what Levy was doing in his place?

Wait a minute…

He didn't use word "place", he used instead…

Was he implying…?

Oh…

Gajeel narrowed his eyes.

Scared Levy, damaged his house and now this? He is going to pay!
