Chapter 4

Percy

Who is this man? Why is he doing what he's doing? Why is pitting monsters against monsters what is his plan? "Who are you?" I yell at him, anger flowing through my veins. "Why are you doing this? What's your goal?"

"Who am I?" asks the man in black. "I've been called many things, but many prefer black mage Zeref. "

"No way" Murmurs Annabeth. "This man is Zeref?"

"That's right" says Natsu clenching his fist. "He's the cause for many things. The pains Erza suffered the pains we suffered. It was him."

Somehow I know what's coming next. It's so obvious. Natsu is going to do the one thing Natsu is good at. Fight. "Natsu don't do it." I say "You can't win."

"I'll win" shouts Natsu, flames consuming his body "Zeref has hurt too many people, to many of my friends. I'll win!" Natsu turns to face us, anger written across his face. "Happy, Grey, Lucy I'm counting on you guys to back me up."

"Aye sir!" shouts Happy.

"You can count on us." Says Lucy.

"Fine, but I'm coming with you." I say, looking at Natsu.

"This is my fight. I'll do it alone. You can't stop me!

"You're stubborn you know?" I look at him sternly. "Don't lose, or I'm not going to fight you."

A smile spreads across Natsu's face for a second. "Oh, I won't lose, I'll win for sure, because now I'm all fired up!" just as Natsu finished talking the monsters charged.

I uncapped my pen and watched as it transformed into a sword. I slash at a Cyclops that was running at me. On the other side of the hall, Grey is busy stabbing some hellhounds with ice while Lucy and Annabeth are fighting Cyclopes back to back. As I slash through the waves of monsters I turn my attention to Natsu who is fighting Zeref. I watch in awe as Zeref counters Natsu's attacks with his own dark magic.

Natsu punches Zeref and is thrown onto the ground by and invisible force. They brawl like that, with Natsu doing varied attacks like dragons roar, iron fist and his dragon claw and Zeref countering. Suddenly Zeref smiles and says "I think I'm done here, I have what I want so I think I'll leave. No point in staying where I could be killed." With that Zeref disappeared.

"Zeref come back here you coward!" yells Natsu.

"Natsu he's gone, we can leave." I say as we finish off the last of the attacking monsters. We're the only ones left in the room, the rest of the monsters were killed off by the invading armies. Suddenly a sound comes from the hallway and we all turn to see a 3 headed serpent slithering down the hall.

"What's that?" asks Natsu.

"It looks tasty." Comments Happy.

"It's a hydra. You cut off one head two more appear." Says Annabeth "This might be tricky."

"Oh, yeah I'm still fired up from my earlier fight, let's finish of this snake!" Says Natsu as he charges off towards the Hydra.

We watch in awe as the Hydra's heads shoot flames at Natsu with no prevail. Natsu, being smart for once, aims his attacks at the body and the legs when suddenly the hydra snaps at him. Natsu quickly moves out-of-the-way and moves in to attack.

"Natsu watch out!" yells Lucy as she runs to aid Natsu.

I'm wondering what's going on when it hits me. The hydras are gearing up to bite Natsu at the same time. I run after them and watch as Lucy pulls out her keys only to get the knocked out of her hands the tail of the hydra.

"Lucy, what are you doing?" Yells Natsu as he evades a hydra bite. Behind him a head his gearing up to bite him.

"You idiot!" yells Lucy as she jumps into the air pushing him onto the ground.

Everyone stands there stuck to the ground by what happens next. As Lucy pushes Natsu out-of-the-way, the hydra bites into Lucy's body then throws her into a wall. "No, no Lucy!" yells Natsu as he runs over her.

"No Lucy don't die." A puddles starts to form around Lucy her bite marks clearly visible. "Come on Lucy stay with me please." Tears start to pour down Natsu's eyes. "Lucy I'm sorry, this is my entire fault. Please no. I love you Lucy. Don't die."

Lucy stares up at Natsu weakly. "I love you to Natsu." Natsu suddenly pulls Lucy close to him and kisses her on the lips. There kiss is long and I look away. That's when I see the hydra and I'm reminded of why Lucy's hurt to begin with.

"Grey let's take the Hydra, Annabeth help Lucy" I shout taking control.

"Right!" respond Annabeth and Grey.

Grey and I race at the hydra. Grey commenced to distract the Hydra with ice while I ran in ready cut him down. How was I going to do that? My plan was simple, Grey and I were to take turns stabbing it with our weapons and eventually chop it in half. Not the best plan but it should work.

...

Natsu

Shit this is all my fault. I wasn't paying attention and now Lucy is dying. I look up at Annabeth and ask her if Lucy's going to be okay. "She'll be fine, her wounds will take some time to heal, but she'll live." Says Annabeth "If she hadn't been you could of died. You're lucky this time."

"Yeah, guess I am."

We hear a defending yell and we turn to see Percy and Grey landing on the ground high fiving each other. "You beat it." I say speechless.

"Of course flame brains, no thanks to you!" replies Grey. "You almost got Lucy killed with your stupidity."

"Yeah." I reply sinking into the ground, tears start to drip down my cheeks. "It's all my fault, once again Lucy almost dies because of me."

"Whoa, Natsu stop crying it's not like you at all." Says Grey, an expression of worry covering his face.

"Yeah stop crying Natsu." Says a voice weakly.

I turn to see Lucy trying to stand. A weak smile is on her lips. I run over to her with no care in the world. I embrace her. Suddenly I feel my lips touch her. We're kissing. There are yells from Annabeth telling me to stop. Percy and Grey are cheering me on. Happys squealing in excitement. I don't care it's just me and Lucy now. As we pull from our embrace I whisper something to her "Lucy after this let's go on a date, just you and me. Maybe we can stay in New York for a week, just you and me. How does that sound?"

"That would be great." Replies Lucy weakly, then we kiss again, not letting go of each other.
