OH MAH GERSH! I am so sorry for keeping you waiting! I've really stressed with school, friends and all, so once I had gotten chapter 4 up I forgor ALL ABOUT CHAPTER 5! I'm so so so so soooo sorry for that! Now, since it's christmas break, I'm gonna type a whole bunch of chapters. Hopefuly. I can do a lot more chapters now since...I HAVE MY OWN LAPTOP DOWN IN MY ROOM THAT I CAN USE WIRELESS WIFI ON! I CAN TYPE CHAPTERS IN MY ROOM WHENEVER I FEEL LIKE! Anyway. As a heads up, I do not own any of the original spells or charaters from Fairy Tail. The newer people/dragons are my fan made characters, so I own them. Well. Here's chapter 5! ENJOY!
Horror!
"GET HER!" Someone yells, then many dark people with black cloaks explode from the undergrowth.
"Gajeel. Who are these people?" I ask, getting ready to fight.
"No. How did they find us?" Gajeel mumbles. I see fear flash in his eyes, that makes me terrified. 'This can not be good if Gajeel is...*gulp*...scared!' I scream in my mind.
"Who are they?" I ask again, fear growing as the men circle Gajeel and I.
"Get out of here as fast as you can! I'll hold them off." He commands, transforming his fists to iron clubs.
"What!? No! I will not leave you, Metalicana, or Universe! I'll fight them off with you guys!" I refuse strongly, ready to strike down the first enemy to make a move.
"NO! You don't understand! They are part of a dark guild. They kidnap young girls to sell as servants or slaves. The always get sold to people who are cruel and would even work their servants to DEATH!" He explains, leaning in closer to my ear, voice hushed, "They can't find out about your magic what-so-ever. If they do...Only God knows what they'll do to you. Use that spell Universe taught you, the one that blocks anyone from sensing your magic. You'll be safer that way if you happen to get caught. But like HECK am I gonna let that happen!" He punches one of the dark guild members down effortlessly.
"What about you? They might kill you!" My fear suddenly gives way to worry for my friend who's like an older brother to me, believe it or not. He turns to me, picks me up bridal style, then plows through the rows upon rows of invading, strangly weak, kidnappers. (Or should I say GIRLnapers!) Once we're through, he sets me down, and Metalicana and Universe give battle cries, catapulting from the sky to join the fray. Gajeel and I have a few final moments together.
"Go over the mountians-." He points behind me and lays a hand on my shoulder, "And find the town Magnolia. Then find the guild Fairy Tail, I'll meet you there someday. You'll be safe there for the time being. Just do me one last thing." He bows his head, and I wait patiently. He suddenly looks me straight in the eyes, his eyes blazing like bloody fire. "Live! Don't change your good heart. Stay good, and live. No matter what happens or what you may go through, promise me, Metalicana, UNIVERSE!, that you'll stay kind hearted like you are now!" Shocked by his vigorous words, I nod stiffly, then more soberly enthusiastic. He gives me one final family like hug, then jumps back into the war after pushing in the direction he told me run in. I start running, visions of this happening with Jarid filling my brain, hand to my aching heart.
"CYRUS! BEHIND YOU!" Universe's voice screams to me above the war sounds. I spin my head around to look at what she screamed to me about, and I spot a black cloud like mist flying towards me at a fast speed, much faster than I can run. It's a Dark-Magic spell that puts whoever is caught inside it o fall asleep almost instantly. The mist causes it's victim to cough, forcing him/her to breathe in the fumes that knock them out. I narrowly miss getting hit by it, but my dodging motion throws off my balance, causing me to crash to the ground. Behind me a familiar thud and puff of wind makes me look back once again.
"Get up! Keep going! I'll stop them." Universe calls to me, blocking the pursuing attackers with her tough, scaley body. I stand and start to run again, my heart wrenching about having to leave them to fight without me there to help. 'What if one of them gets hurt or even killed because I won't be there to help!?' I panic inwardly. A few moments after the thought crosses my mind, my biggest nightmare springs to life. A spine rattling horror movie scream peirces the night sky. I slam my feet into the ground, stopping me instantly, and I look back to the source of the scream. What I see tears my heart out, shattering it on the ground. Universe falls to the ground with a following , massive, thump. A sword I've only read about and seen pictures of is making it's debue in my life for the first time. A Dark-Magic-Death-Sword is shoved through Universe's chest and out her back, between her shoulder blades. The sword itself produces a poison that rages through the body in a matter of seconds, eating away at the flesh until nothing is left. (The process for the poison to eat away all flesh on a dragon would take up to an hour. For a human, it would take up to 10 minutes maximum!) With everything Universe has left, she freezes the people with an Ice-Dragon-Roar, then turns her gaze to me, tears in her eyes. (Dragons almost never cry, since it takes great pain, whether it be emotional, physical, or both, to get a dragon to cry.)
"G-Go...and...live...I-I...love...you...my...Little one." She manages to force the words out in her final shuddering breath, before laying her head down, shine in her eyes fading, and closing her eyes. Her body moves no more.
"Universe..? Universe!? UNIVERSE! NNOOOOOO!" I scream at the top of my lungs. Uncontrolably, I cry, body racked by each wave of sobs and shuddering breaths. I flee, wanting to obey her final request with everything I have left in me. Being so distracted by Universe's sudden death, I find myself being engulfed by a cloud like mist. I begin to cough through my tears of grief. 'The knock out mist! OH NO! Don't breathe it in, Cyrus. Don't breathe it IN!' I comand myself, silently, but for some reason, I can't stop coughing. That scratchy feeling in my throat won't leave and I can't stop myself from trying to get rid of it, making me cough. My vision blurrs, my legs slowing down, extreme tiredness shadowing all my senses and muscles from anything else.
"CYRUS!" I hear Gajeel scream, then, as I begin to fall, Black!
