Poor Juvia felt terribly embarrassed by this moment. When she had first met Lyon he seemed like a very nice guy but she didn't feel like going out with anyone right now. It took some prodding on his part but she agreed to one date with him. Just to take her mind off the boy she really liked and wanted to go out with. But imagine her terror when she found out that Lyon's roommate who he had been so excited about was the very boy her heart pined for.

"Gray I didn't know you were Lyon's new roommate." She said.

"I didn't know that you were his date for the evening." He said.

"If I had known you two were sharing a dorm room I would have told you."

"Why?" He said nervously. "Why do you feel the need to tell me? It's not like you need my permission to go out with other people. And it's not like I would be upset with you dating another guy."

"Me thinks the gentleman doth protest too much." Natsu said.

"Shut up Natsu." Gray told him sternly.

"So you're not upset that I'm going out with Lyon tonight?" She asked.

"Of course not. He's a great guy and I'm glad that you found someone as nice as him to go out with."

"Hey Gray who are you talking to?" Just then Lyon walked into the room. "Hey Juvia what are you doing here? Our date isn't for another four hours."

"I know I just came here to tell you that I might be a little late tonight." She told him. "I have to stay after for play practice. I'm sorry."

"Don't worry about it. I can wait. Thank you for the heads up." He said with an understanding smile. "By the way this is my new roommate Gray Fullbuster and I don't know who the guy with pink hair is."

"My hair's not pink it's salmon!" Natsu corrected.

"I already know them Lyon." Juvia said. "Gray's aunt and my sister in-law are friends, they have tea regularly and the other guy would be Natsu, Gray's good friend."

"Oh I see. I didn't know that you all were so well acquainted."

"Gray and Juvia are more than just well acquainted." Natsu mumbled which earned him a thump on the head from Gray.

"So Lyon did you know that Gray work's for my brother?" Juvia asked him.

"Oh you mean the guy who runs the newspaper business? I did not."

"Must have slipped my mind." Gray said. "I don't do much. I just take the pictures."

"I saw the ones you took for the article about Professor Lancer." She said. "That maniac Black Demon didn't hurt you did he?"

"No. He didn't even know I was there."

"Well at least you weren't hurt but poor Professor Lancer."

"If you asked me it served him right." Lyon said.

"Lyon how can you say a thing like that?"

"Well he was a know it-all jerk. He had it coming."

"I'm not too fond of him myself but I don't think he deserved to be brutally attacked."

"Yeah Lyon." Gray said. "I know he wasn't a good teacher to you but don't you think you're being a little harsh on him?"

"I guess. I don't mean to be insensitive it's just that people like him really get me steamed."

"Well try to feel more pity for him and less anger for him. Please?" Juvia said.

"Alright, alright."

"Well I better get going." Juvia said going to the door. "I'll see you tonight Lyon."

"We have to get going too." Gray said. "Natsu and I have some business to discuss. Come on buddy."

The three of them left the dorm room. Juvia went off to play practice while Gray and Natsu went to talk about what their plan was for Black Demon.

"So any ideas on who could possible be Black Demon?" Natsu asked Gray.

"Nope. I got nothing. But it would have to be someone who has access to advanced technology and weaponry and would have a motive for taking out doctors and scientists."

"Too bad we don't know anyone like that."

"Or do we?"

Gray noticed that Lyon wasn't too sympathetic toward Professor Lancer and last night he had gone somewhere just moments before Black Demon attacked the professor. He also seemed to have a vendetta against scientists. Not to mention with his father owning a company that built weaponry for the military, he would have all kinds of access to technology. Could Lyon be Black Demon?

"Do you have a suspect?" Natsu asked.

"Yeah. Lyon."

"You're roommate?"

"Yesterday he mentioned something about teaching Professor Lancer a lesson for failing him and he said that scientists tend to get to him. His father also owns a weapon factory."

"Still I don't know if that qualifies him to be suspect."

"Well I'm taking no chances." He checked to make sure that no one else was around then he ducked into a nearby alleyway and changed into his alter ego.

"What are you doing?" Natsu asked him.

"I'm going to spy on Lyon. Figure out just what he's up to."

"You sure that's a good idea?"

"I'm not doing anything wrong. I'm just making sure that he's not a criminal and that he doesn't do anything to Juvia on their date."

"Oh so that's what this is about."

"What? What are you getting at?"

"You're jealous."

"No I'm not."

"Yes you are! You're not going to make sure that Lyon isn't Black Demon. You're going to make sure that Lyon and Juvia don't do a little lip wrestling or anything like that."

"That's ridiculous. It doesn't matter to me that they're going out unless of course Lyon does turn out to be a villainous psycho path. I'm only doing this to protect her."

"And because you're jealous."

"I am not jealous. I don't get jealous. This is all out of concern not envy."

"Really? Tell me this then would you even suspect Lyon if he and Juvia weren't going out tonight?"

"Yes I would. I'm going off of facts not my own personal feelings."

"Yeah right. You hate it that she's going out with Lyon because you want her for yourself. Why else would you care so much?"

"Look Juvia is a good friend of mine. Just because I don't think of her romantically doesn't mean I don't care about her and that I like the idea of some crazed super villain hurting her. That's the only reason I'm doing this. To ensure that nothing happens to her."

"I care about her too bro but I don't think Lyon is your man. I mean a lot people on campus hate Professor Lancer."

"Yeah but not all of them have access to a weapon making business. You're not going to talk me out of this."

With that said Gray just took off climbing up the nearest building and running across rooftops.

"Oh boy this isn't going to end well. I just know it." Natsu said shaking his head.
