Gajeel pov

I watched as Lucy's limp body floated to the surface, I didn't waste anytime I jumped into the water and grabbed her bringing her up to solid ground I laid her on her back, her eyes were closed, her blond hair stuck to her face and her mouth was open.

I was completely in shock how did this happen? I should have stayed with her. I shouldn't have let her out of my sight and now if she dies I'm going to have to tell salamander how I got his mate killed. I shook my head no I had to get these thoughts out of my head I can still save her.

I listened closely to Lucy's chest I could hear a faint heartbeat and immediately began CPR,

Levy had taught me how to do this after she saved a kid who was drowning one day when we were walking down at the beach, I had basically ran around in a circle like i was a chicken with my head cut off not knowing what to do. It was pretty terrifying not knowing what to do but Levy was there and everything was alright.

I counted to 10 in my head for the chest compression's and then gave her two breaths of air, she still wasn't waking up, I continued to do CPR and after the compression's I would check to see if i could hear her heartbeat get stronger,

"come on Lucy" I was starting to lose hope that she would wake up. but I couldn't just let her die. I had to do everything I could to revive her. I was on my 6th chest compression when Lucy's eyes opened, and she began coughing up water. I quickly held her up helping her to get the water out of her lungs. I did it. I sighed as I heard her heartbeat going strong, i almost laughed with joy I actually did it. I fell back on the ground with a huge smile on my face as Lucy steadied her breathing

Lucy pov

I watched as Gajeel fell back on the ground smiling, I coughed and tried to steady my breathing, Gajeel had saved my life and I was never going to forget it. I looked over at Gajeel, then I looked down and my face went red I was in my underwear I dove for my bag and grabbed a sweater putting in over my body
that's when I remembered something had grabbed my leg I quickly moved back away from the water

"whats wrong?" Gajeel asked sitting up

"something grabbed my leg"

Gajeel looked over at the water "what do you mean"

"do you really think I would have just drowned"

Gajeel stood up "so something was keeping you under"

I nodded I didn't realize I was shaking until Gajeel touched my shoulder, i looked up at him "Lucy open your hand"

I looked at him questioningly "wha-"

Gajeel grabbed my hand opening it there in my hand was a key, a celestial key. I gasped it was beautiful, but how did I get it?

"how did I get this?" I was so confused I didn't know what was happening in the slightest.

"I-wha...what?" Gajeel smiled at the key picking it up and turning it around in his hand

"I don't know but we just found our first key"

I tried to stand up and felt a sharp pain shoot up my leg I looked down at my ankle it was all bruised and it was bleeding,

Gajeel placed the key back in my hand,

"your ankles pretty bad. hold on I have a first aid kit"

Gajeel went off and grabbed his bag bringing it back over to me he dug around in his bag and brought out gauze and ointment, I wondered what had grabbed me had such strength to do this to my ankle.

Gajeel wrapped up my ankle"does it feel better?"

I nodded as I moved my ankle slightly. It actually felt a lot better. I owed Gajeel so much he already saved my life and now he's helping with my wounds I had to remember to thank him properly later.

Gajeel got up zipping up his bag he placed it over near mine Gajeel finally went to inspect the water just as he got there a head popped up making him jump back slightly. I began to crawl backwards further from the woman who had just popped her head out of the water, was she the one who tried to drown me?

she looked absolutely beautiful but how could some one like that do something like this to me?

"who are you?" the woman walked out of the water she was completely naked and had waist long hair,

"I am the guardian of the key" I stood up standing on the leg she didn't just destroy with her hands

"what? why did you just drown me?" I asked frustrated Gajeel turned around not wanting to see a naked lady apparently

the woman smiled "you are a celestial wizard no?"

I nodded "yes I am but that doesn't mean you have to drown me! I almost died!"

Gajeel cleared his throat "technically you did die" he said he still wouldn't look in this direction

I pointed to him "see I died!"

the woman continued to smile "I am sorry about that but I was protecting the key, which you have" she pointed down at my hand I grasped the key tighter

"I don't see how that makes any sense"

"my name is Katrina. I was assigned to protect that key you have there and when I sensed a celestial wizard nearby I had to protect it. but when I noticed you were Layla's daughter, I gave you the key" Katrina looked over at Gajeel's back which was still turned

"then he came and saved your life" Katrina walked closer to me

my mouth fell open "how did you know my mom?"

"you look exactly like her. its pretty amazing"

"how did you know my mom?" I asked again anger clear in my voice

Katrina smiled "she was my owner."

I bet you all didn't see that one coming..or maybe you did..meh, aren't you glad Lucy isn't dead? I know I am. my sister pointed out that this chapter was really short so I added things to make it longer but I don't know, I think its still short sorry. anyway I hope you all liked the chapter and the next one should be up on tuesday!
