"Can you smell anything?" I asked Natsu as we continued to walk deeper into the woods.
"No, not yet" Natsu said as he sniffed the air again. I walked around irritated we'd been walking for an hour already and we couldn't find anything,
"This is taking forever!" I pouted. I stopped and sat down on a nearby tree that had obviously fallen over years ago, I pushed my blonde hair back into the side pony tail it had fallen out a while ago. Natsu walked back to where I sat and stood in front of me. "Come on Luce, we gotta finish the job."
"But I'm tired. Let's just rest for a minute."
Natsu chuckled and looked up "Luce."
"I know just give me a minute."
"Lucy."
I was getting angry "I kno-" I looked up at Natsu and was prepared to yell at him for not giving me a minute to rest, Natsu was rigid with a scowl on his face, I sat up quickly and turned around
"Who are you?" I asked as Natsu got into a fighting stance and I put my hand over my keys in case he tried to attack. The man in front of me had blonde hair and wore all black he didn't look much older then me.
"I'm Kash. I believe your looking for us." he lifted his arms and more people came from the woods, they came from behind trees, and jumped down from them. There were a couple hundred of them including Kash
"That's a lot more people then I thought there would be." I whispered
"That's because there not bandits." Natsu said through gritted teeth
"That's right!" Kash chimed "Were the dark guild called Silver Venom." he smiled
"Silver Venom?" I asked having never heard about this dark guild before. "Yes. Silver Venom" he said happily and practically skipped over to one of his members. He seemed way to happy.
Kash stopped and stared at me and Natsu and frowned "It seems you know my name but I do not know yours?" he then smiled "What is your name?"
"Lucy." I crossed my arms
"Lucy." he said "I like it, pretty name for a pretty person." he said while smiling at me with a dark look in his eyes
"Oi! Watch it!" Natsu growled.
Kash smiled "Ahh, I hit a nerve there huh?" Kash laughed darkly. and walked back toward his other guild members. I had my hand on my keys and Natsu was still in his fighting stance. Kash looked me up and down, his eyes then landed on my hand
"Stellar mage, and.." he looked over at Natsu looking him up and down "and a pink haired idiot?"
This made Natsu angry, before I could do anything Natsu attacked "fire dragons roar!" Natsu's fire was headed straight for Kash, Kash just stood there smiling not doing anything then he put his hands up just before Natsu's flame could touch him "rock shield." he said simply and a shield made of rock formed in his hands as the fire hit the shield. Everyone was silent as Kash's rock shield disappeared.
"That was fun" Kash smiled brushing of his hands "So a dragon slayer huh? But not just that, your the famous Salamander of Fairy Tail."
The guild members murmured and laughed
"How did you know we would be here?" I asked
Kash only smiled
Then it hit me, the women who gave us the mission
"I knew there was something off about her!" I hit Natsu
"Hey what was that for?" he asked turning his full attention to me
"Shouldn't you have smelled something off about her, or something!"
"Smell something? I'm not an evil detector. I can't smell evil Lucy"
"Well no shit Natsu. If you didn't ask to stop for food, and nearly burn the waiter to death maybe I would have noticed something about the request."
"He was staring at your chest... and I didn't grab the request!"
"Oh whatever Natsu!" I looked over at the dark guild most of their members were staring at me and Natsu in shock, and some were laughing. Kash had his mouth hanging wide open. "You should have read the request fully instead of dragging me out of the guild."
"Oh? so its my fault?" I crossed my arms over my chest and walked angrily back to my fallen tree and sat down. "What? so now your not going to help me?" Natsu waved absent mindedly toward the dark guild members.
"Well anyone would look at that chest" Kash whispered it to the guild member next to him, while Kash and his guild mate were laughing Natsu ran up to them "Fire dragons iron fist!" and Kash flew across the woods. "Shut up!" Natsu yelled as he punched him. Kash hit a tree before he could get far and he was down. and that's when the rest of the guild attacked.
One after one the dark guild members came at Natsu but he just ran through them flaming hands punching anyone who got in his way "Lucy are you not going to come help?" he said as he got tackled to the ground by about 15 members of the dark guild.
I looked over at Natsu who was on the ground "No I'm good." I looked down at my nails "You seem to be handling everything."
"Fire dragons claw" Natsu yelled and the guild members flew "are you serious right now Lucy?" Natsu put a man in a head lock and turned to her "You've been acting weird since we left the guild." Natsu threw the man as he hit a nearby tree and fell unconscious
"I have not!" I complained as Natsu threw a guild member in my direction "Hey watch it!" Natsu looked over at me "Sorry" I rolled my eyes "Whatever." I took out my keys " Gate of the bull I open thee: Taurus!" Taurus appeared and started hitting people left and right until there was only me, Natsu and Kash left. "Thanks Taurus" "I will do anything to protect that beautiful body." and he left.
Kash shot up to his feet and charged at us I yelped and jumped out of the way of a cluster of rocks that shot up from the ground. Natsu jumped over the rocks and went to punch Kash when he put up another shield. Natsu's fist collided with it and he yelled in pain. Holding his hand
"Oh Mavis are you okay!?" I asked concerned
"Fuck!" he yelled as he held his hand to his chest "I'm fine" he said threw gritted teeth
"Rock grab" suddenly Natsu was in a huge rock hand. I looked over at Kash who had his hand in a fist, he was staring right at Natsu slowly his hand began to close. Natsu yelled as the hand slowly began to crush him
"Natsu!" I had to do something! But before I could Natsu opened his mouth "fire dragons roar!" suddenly Kash was enveloped by the fire. He yelled and dropped his hand trying to put the fire out on his arm. Before he could put out the fire Natsu jumped up punching him in the face.
"Way to go Natsu!" I said as I came up beside him
"Thanks." he said holding his hand to his chest
"Let me see it" I said as I grabbed his hand gingerly. He didn't resist and he let me take his hand in mine. I turned his hand over looking at his knuckles. His hand was slightly swollen and red. but nothing looked broken.
"You should be okay we'll just ice it when we get back."
"Thanks Luce." he said as I set his hand down next to his side. Natsu leaned in to give me a kiss when a heavy groan sounded from beside us. Right Kash was still here. Natsu almost growled as he looked over at Kash
Kash was on the ground, he had a black eye that was starting to show, and his clothes were singed "No... he said it would be an easy win! I had my entire guild here." Kash mumbled
"Who said that?" I asked stepping out from behind Natsu
"He said you'd be here" Kash yelled staring at me and Natsu with intensity
"Who are you talking about?" I asked frustrated
Kash looked up at me with a dark look in his eyes "Zeref."
