Chapter 2

Unexpected Encounters


Previously...

Staggering to his feet, the dragon slayer recovered. "HEYYYY! We're coming too, damnit!" he screamed after them, staring at Lucy for a second before grabbing her waist and throwing her over his shoulder. He ignored her protests and sprinted after the blue couple, flames dancing in his eyes. "I'M ALL FIRED UP!"

.

.

.

That was it, she'd had enough.

"NATSUUUUUU! Put me down RIGHT NOW!" Lucy screamed, pounding her fists into her partner's pectorals. The muscles didn't even flinch as her bust bounced against him; he raced down the cobblestone path, successfully making the scene awkward to on-lookers. She tried again, feeling hopeless. "Didn't Master want to see me?! Juvia and Gray won't get raped! Wahhh Natsu you're being so unfairrrrrr!" She was extremely upset with the situation, and thought that Natsu was being childish. She opted for his partner; maybe the cat could help! "Happy... I'm sorry... Do something, please!"

Her transportation was laughing gleefully, almost skipping with his strides. "It's okay Lucy! We can earn money with this mission and see the guild later! Your boobs are huge by the way!"

"AYE SIR! Sorry Lucy, I'm just following along!" the Exceed said nonchalantly; he seemed to have ignored the last comment his partner made, turning a bit red.

With a rightfully crimson face of her own, the blonde triumphantly flushed her embarrassment into anger. "Well excuse me—they're not yours they're mine—so keep your perverted thoughts to yourself!" With a surge of strength, Lucy somehow managed to slap Natsu's face with her flailing arms. The dragon slayer did not wince and fueled her anger to another level. "Put me DOWN already! Happy stop acting useless and help me!"

Happy munched nonchalantly on a fish that magically appeared out of nowhere, just as it always did. "What? I can't because your boobs make you too heavy."

::-::-::-::-::-::-::-::-::-::-::-::-::-::-::

Not too far ahead of the disputing Team Natsu, Team Gray was running swiftly through the streets as the village became more and more deserted. Juvia was determined to get to their destination before the sun descended and they were left in the darkness. The fact that the villagers disappeared and there were no people on the streets only meant one thing; they were close.

The wind whirled by him as he stared intently at their hands; astounded at the boldness of his partner. Wait. Was she his partner...? Were they a...team? Team, dare he say it, Gray?

The ice mage felt slightly nauseous.

Well it didn't matter now; when Natsu found out, there would be no end to it. Gray blinked a few times before saying, "Uh... Thanks Juvia." And then went back to staring at their hands. Argh, damn it to hell...!

"We must hurry," she replied. The water mage pulled her Gray-sama along, secretly hiding hearts in the backs of her eyes. "Juvia thinks the village is up ahead. If Gray-sama is with Juvia, those men shouldn't take advantage!"

The small town the job had been requested from was beside the outskirts of Magnolia; within running distance, there was no need to worry about wasting time. The village was quiet, notably now that they were slowing to a stop.

"Right... Juvia..." The dark haired man squinted and noticed that, indeed, it was just up ahead. "Natsu is lucky we didn't have to take the train!" He paused, narrowing his eyes slightly. "Speaking of that idiot... WHY ARE YOU FOLLOWING US?!"

Team Gray halted as Team Natsu caught up, the leader stopping in front of the two mages. Juvia eyed the face of the blonde. I wonder why she's so flushed when she didn't even run...?

The dragon slayer gently put Lucy down, oblivious to the curses she mumbled under her breath, and looked at Gray's aggravated face. "Gray... We were looking for a mission anyway. Might as well do it together!" He flashed everyone a hearty grin while adding, "Lucy, I will protect you and your huge boobs."

The frazzled celestial mage flinched; her hair frizzy and her appearance disheveled. She huffed, face reddening with her shirt hiked up to reveal a pale stomach. "Ugh! Stop being a pervert!" She tugged at it to hide her skin before smoothing her blonde locks down.

Gray snorted, ready to comment but then swallowed his spite when a high-pitched scream resounded through the village.

Thinking about the size of her own chest in comparison to Lucy's, Juvia became cross. Though her thoughts halted abruptly. "I heard a scream Gray-sama!"

"Oh no...a scream?!" Lucy squeaked, forgetting her fury and stepping behind Natsu to hide. "I don't want to go!"

"Lucy stop being a chicken!" Gray shouted. He looked around with scrutiny and then pointed to a grocery store. "I think it came from over there. Let's go!" As he dashed toward the alley Juvia followed closely behind.

Natsu threw his fist in the air. "O.K.! I'm all fired up! Let's go big boobs!" He grabbed Lucy's wrist and he dragged her along after the other Fairy Tail members.

A boot kicked Natsu's behind before Lucy skipped and stumbled to regain her footing. "SHUT IT!" She was aggravated with a certain pervert and felt the heat claim her body. She was fired up, too. "WHERE ARE YOU RAPISTS?!"

"Now that's what I'm talking about!" Gray praised as the group arrived at the mouth of the alleyway. He braced himself as Juvia bumped into him. "Shhh..." Using his arm to shield her, he glanced sideways. "Natsu... You smell anything?" Beside him, Juvia flushed at her Gray-sama's protection.

The pink haired man rubbed his butt, feeling weird about Lucy's action. Was it something he said? At Gray's question, he flared his nostrils. "Yeah," he answered slowly. "Smells like...sexual juices..."

"...That's just...nasty," Lucy commented, looking at Natsu with disgust.

"Well it is what I smell! There have definitely been a bunch of rapes around this place." her comrade replied firmly.

"Juvia smells it too. It used to happen in Juvia's old town when she was younger."

"Aye! I think I see someone!" A blue paw directed everyone's attention to a figure emerging a few yards from them.

"I hope you weren't raped," Gray said to Juvia, a hint of worry in his hushed tone.

"Gray-sama is worried about Juvia?" the water mage asked with big eyes and blushed instantaneously. "Oh no... Juvia was not raped. She was captured before but was saved. It was before she was very strong with her water magic."

"Good, good..." the dark haired man replied, nodding at Juvia's explanation with ocean eyes staring ahead; the figure was approaching leisurely.

An eyesore hit everyone's vision at once; clothed in a black T-shirt and black jeans, his eyes were the only feature that stood out on him. Gigantic and disproportional with his narrow face and chin, the man that emerged had violet, googly eyes. With a lecherous smirk, the man licked his lips. "Oh who is this!" he drawled, regarding Lucy. "Have you brought us a sacrifice, Pinky?"

Natsu looked nonplussed as Lucy's eyes widened. "E—Ew!" she piped meekly.

"Hey you stupid man! What's going on here?! What sacrifice?!" the dragon slayer asked loudly.

Happy shook his head and wore a determined expression. "Aye... This man can't have the girls... We have to protect them! Natsu! Gray!"

The ice mage nodded and his rival clenched a fist. "Of course, Happy." Natsu said. "That goes without question."

"Hey Roger!" called a deep voice from behind the googly man. "I already dropped that screamer off with Boss. What did ya find?" Another man emerged from behind the first, clothed in the same attire. A much rounder body, but his eyes were also blessed with humongous, outrageous eyes.

The man called Roger smiled wildly, googly eyes everywhere. "Glenn! I found two lovely maidens! And two ugly monsters... And a cute blue kitty!" His grin turned disgustingly perverse. "Let's bag these two and bring them to Boss... and the cat!"

Lucy shuddered, repulsed. The screamer? What kind of sick joke is this? And what the hell is up with their eyes? Golden irises flared; she'd had it with perverts. "You must be the gang that's been raping woman around here... You're not taking Juvia or me!"

Gray grit his teeth. "Ha! Like that will ever happen." Hands and arms fell into the ice maker pose. "Let's do this, Juvia, Natsu, Lucy, Happy!"

"Mmm! We have to save the others!" Grasping her keys at her belt, Lucy swallowed thickly. I really hope they're weak...

"YOU WILL NEVER TAKE HAPPY!" Natsu yelled. He blinked. "Oh, or Lucy either! O.K.! I'm backing you up Gray; everyone!" With his fists ready, the dragon slayer prepared himself to charge.

While pulling out a Zodiac key, Lucy sighed. "Natsu... You're a real great nakama."

The Fairy Tail members readied themselves for the oncoming battle as they backed out of the alley; their fists filled with guts and their hearts filled with pride. In front of the grocery store there was more room to move freely; their light was limited and the streets were more luminous. Acting serious started now.

Cerulean eyes narrowed. "Juvia will not be defeated or bagged!"

"Really princess? I'll take you first!" Glenn exclaimed, thrusting forward. "That'll be three today. We're gunna get them, Roger!"

"You can't defeat us," Roger said with a grin. "Glenn! Let's not fail the Boss!" Emerging from the space in between buildings, the googly man sprinted jaggedly at Natsu and Lucy.

The two teams jumped back in opposite directions, driving the two gang members apart. Gray thought it was a good idea; hopefully with their distance, the chances would be less likely to destroy the town. "Ice Make: Hammer!" He commanded as ice formed in his hands. The tool was gigantic and he slammed it down into the approaching man.

"Water Slicer!" Juvia shouted, sharp water assisting her Gray-sama's attack. The ice broke the gravel beneath Glenn creating a huge crevice in the center of the street while the water consumed the hole and overflowed.

"Nice Juvia! Come on." Gray said, running toward the damage. Hopefully we can defeat these guys easily and find out where their place is... If that scream from before was a woman, they definitely have more than just her...

The blue haired mage smiled at Gray's praise. The recognition strengthened her resolve and she continued her attack, swirling the water violently. "Juvia will never forgive perverts like you!"

Ice shattered around the broken earth and Glenn was unscathed as he stealthily evaded the pitfall. "Don't think so woman. You will be the next one for Boss... He likes them spunky!" With a swift arm movement, Juvia's water began to bubble. Glenn smirked as the liquid shot up like an erupting volcano; instead of oozing lava, the water swirled with ice particles and the attack was meant to hit it's original wielder. He would take her with their moves.

"Fuck!" Gray cursed as he retreated. Glenn's attack was aiming straight for Juvia and if he didn't get to her right then, she'd be severely hurt. He threw both hands together; fist and open palm. "Ice make: Floor!" I better get to her in time! Both hands smashed to the floor and the cobblestone and gravel instantly turned to ice, the path flowing toward Juvia.

Without noticing the floor, Juvia was preparing to block; she didn't have time to avoid the blow. Gray-sama, Juvia is sorry... She gasped when cerulean irises watched the ground beneath her become solid and slippery. Before she could react, Gray slammed into her and took them both down, sliding away from the blast's acrimony.

Another explosion erupted near them and the ice mage hovered over the water mage; his bare chest pressed against her breasts. A deep blush claimed Juvia's usual pale cheeks as she conceived the position they were in. Except for her body numbing from below, she felt incredibly warm. My Gray-sama! He's protecting me! Ah...so this is what it feels like to be pressed against him...

The man of her thoughts opened his ocean depths, staring into her lighter ones. At their closeness, he felt his cheeks heat up. "Uh... Y—You okay?"

Their faces were compellingly close, but Juvia held her primal instincts through sheer willpower.

Somehow.

"Y—Yes Gray-sama!" Her eyes trailed down, mesmerized by his muscles.

Well, she tried to.

Her face grew more heated. "Um... W—We should... Not get attacked by this guy!"

Gray suddenly felt like Natsu; blood boiling underneath his skin.

"Let's win... Gray-sama!" The water mage's voice flitted through his ears and their eyes took each other in once again. Gray's own instincts started to stir inside him. Juvia... I want to...

A crackling noise broke the pair out of their stupor, and Gray jerked his head to the source. Glenn clasped his hands together and smirked at him. "Don't get too comfortable on Boss' woman! Water conducts electricity... Lighting Bird!"

The ice mage knew immediately that they didn't didn't have time to flee. "Fuck!" he said through gritted teeth. Lightening in the shape of a bird soared straight into them; wordlessly Gray hugged Juvia, effectively protecting her from the brunt of the damage. He yelled in pain as he felt flesh burning off his back. The ice shattered beneath them and the force of impact sent them skidding.

"GRAY-SAMA!" Juvia screamed, their movement finally halting, furthering the distance between their enemy. She'd been electrocuted as well, but the currents had only passed through her. Gray-sama took all of the damage... Juvia feels guilty. She heard his panting and rolled out from underneath him, helping him to sit up. "Juvia will... Juvia will protect you! Are you alright, Gray-sama...?

"Augh...yeah... We gotta... We gotta move Juvia!" Gray said hurriedly, ocean depths glancing back at their foe. He pushed his first origin, grabbing energy from within himself to stand.

"How cute. Too bad you two will be separated... You look delicious water mage!" the googly man said, already preparing another lighting attack. "I will knock you out and then bring you back to Boss!"

::-::-::-::-::-::-::-::-::-::-::-::-::-::-::

Standing beside Lucy, Natsu's voice bellowed. "I will protect my friends! IRON FIST OF THE FIRE DRAGON!" With a lunge, deep charcoal eyes fumed with pride as fire swallowed the air Roger was running into.

"HAH! I have a shield for that! Re-quip!" The googly man yelled, a large metal shield appearing on his arm. He held it in front of him, successfully reflecting the licking flames back at the wielder.

"Goooo Natsu!" Happy cheered from beside the blonde. As the fire engulfed Roger, Lucy's mouth hung open.

"What? Like Erza? Shit!" The dragon slayer spewed, ducking to avoid his power being used against him.

"The fire is coming back towards us! KYAH—!" she gasped. A roar of reddish orange dispersed against them; Lucy threw herself away from Natsu, and Happy was blown towards her from the exploding earth.

"LUCY! ARE YOU OKAY?!"

"Ye—Yes!" the blonde replied to her worried comrade, staggering to her feet. Golden eyes looked down; the top of her blouse had been ripped in the process of her fall, exposing the top of her cleavage easily. It was the most notable aside from minor scratches on her legs and arms. "Aww why does this always happen!"

"Aye..." Happy mumbled, getting to his paws. His body had a few scratches from the blast too.

Googly eyes drank Lucy's appearance, lewd thoughts written all over his face. Wasting no time, he sped towards her. "MMM, YOU LOOK TASTY!"

Natsu intercepted him with a dark expression; he sucked in remnants of ember in the air, his belly growing big. "THAT DOES IT! You won't hurt my friends! Re-quip or not! ROAR OF THE FIRE DRAGON!" With hands cupping his mouth, flames burst through his teeth, swallowing the space around him and targeting Roger.

"Aha!" the lecherous man shouted, using his shield again to deflect the ravenous flames. Instead, their path deterred to Lucy and Happy who were still recovering from the first attack.

"Not again!" The celestial mage choked. She scooped Happy into her arms as she fell to the floor and rolled away from the fiery wrath. She moaned from the pain of the rocky road slicing her bare skin. As soon as her body stopped, Happy wriggled free from her bleeding arms and grasped her collar. Lucy felt alarmed, but when she felt gravity leave her limbs, she knew Happy was flying.

"Hang on Lucy!" the Exceed cried as he lifted them higher, away from the dangerous battlefield below. She's heavy, but this isn't the time to to tell her!

"Ah—thank you, Happy!" Her hands flew to the pouch at her belt. "Now I can use a spirit!" Quickly Lucy grabbed a key, pointing it at Roger. "Taurus!"

The golden key ignited, a formidable glow illuminating the empty street. The second Zodiac sign appeared, a double-headed axe held strongly in his hands.

"MOOOOOOOOOO! Lucy-san," the bull bellowed with hearts in his eyes, "beautiful as always!" He gawked at her cleavage, earning an eye-roll from the blonde.

"Just hurry up!" Lucy muttered, irritated. There were just too many perverts around her today. She couldn't wait until the mission was finally over...

"MOOOOO anything for Lucy-san!" Taurus swung his huge weapon at the googly man, aiming for his neck.

"Oooo a celestial mage!" Roger teased. The grin on his face faded as he ducked to avoid his head getting chopped off. "Damnit, what an annoying cow!" He jumped back, creating space between the bull and himself.

Lucy clenched her fists, her voice piqued. "Ugh, why can't we hit him?! Taurus again!" Golden eyes glanced around, smoke and destroyed earth claiming her vision. Where the hell did Natsu go?

Hands sizzled, ready; Roger decided if he had used his shield it would have cracked; so magic it was. "Lighting... FLASH!" Just as Taurus smashed his axe into Roger, he was reeled back from electrification. He grunted in pain as he skidded across the uneven floor.

"TAURUS!" Lucy screamed, shocked at the abundance of power their opponent had. He had googly eyes for Christ's sake!

As the spirit disappeared, the air whispered, "I'm sorry... Lucy-san." and the celestial mage could only tremble.

"Happy...how are we going to win...?" she asked her companion, her voice shaking. Natsu... Where are you...? We're going to...lose!

As if he'd heard her thoughts, the pink haired man bounded through the smoke. "HERE I COME!" But before he was able to prepare an attack, Roger spotted him. The googly man used the same move on Natsu that had taken down Lucy's magic.

"Lighting...FLASH!"

The only difference: Natsu was prepared for that. He'd seen what happened to Taurus before he showed himself again; and this time, he'd be the one using the enemy's magic to attack. He ran into the lightning, mouth wide open. He inhaled the sparks, the currents of electricity, into his belly. Routine for him, but after he ate all of the lighting, his magic would be slightly different. He smirked, wiping remnants of alchemy from his mouth. "You aren't the only one who can use lightning!"

Roger's eyes widened in disbelief; how could someone eat fire and lightning? My lightening?!

Up above, Happy remembered Lucy's last question. "It's a good thing we have Natsu, Lucy! That's how we will win. Gray and Juvia will handle the other guy! Aye sir!"

"LIGHTNING FLAME DRAGON'S FIST!" the dragon slayer roared, speed manipulating gravity to his advantage. He was at Roger's face within a second; punch filled with ferocious, fiery electricity blowing him into a building; an explosion of debris and smoke.

Lucy's mood uplifted, and she cheered her teammate on. "YEAH NATSU!" With her body still dangling in Happy's paws, she agreed. "Yes Happy, he's the best partner!"

"What the hell do you think you're doing, Pinky?" a voice snapped. But there was no one else around them...

Natsu whirled around, charcoal observing a shadow materialize from the alley where Fairy Tail had first encountered the gang. The fuck...? Another one!? His eyes narrowed when the man did appear, arraying the same eyes and getup that the partners possessed. The googly man's violet eyes made Natsu roll his own; how were these guys seriously part of a gang?

"Oh great. Another one?" he stated, sighing. "You guys are asking for it..." His attention shifted upwards, resting his eyes on his blonde comrade. "Don't worry Lucy, I will protect you."

The addressed woman felt a warmth grow inside her at his words. He just doesn't understand how blunt he is! Now's not the time to blush! She flashed him a hard look instead, grasping her keys once again. "Natsu, I'll try and protect you too!" In the back of her mind, she wondered quickly if Gray and Juvia were okay. Then golden irises refocused on the enemies in front of her; she had to assist Natsu. She didn't want to be weak and useless to him... And she sure as hell, did not want to be raped!

Roger staggered out of the clearing smoke, wiping blood off of his chin from a gash on his face. He noticed Daryl and grinned, happy to see he wouldn't be losing anymore. "Daryl, we have some fun for the Boss. Pinky's giving me some trouble though. Let's take him out."

The man named Daryl smiled wickedly at Natsu, who simply glared back. "Sounds good to me. They don't call us The Googly Gang for nothin'! We only got eyes for pretty woman!" His hands prepared an attack; Roger mirroring his stance adjacent to him.

"Thanks for the help Lucy! Together we will win... These guys are nothing!" Natsu said, giving her a cheeky smile. He inhaled deeply and then blew out an inferno, the move resembling a flame thrower. "EAT FIRE AND BURN!"

Lucy gasped at the searing heat radiating from the licking wrath that Natsu was exhaling. She gasped a second time when she felt gravity begin to pull her weight.

"Lucy you're too heavy nowwwww!" Happy cried, his paws slipping off Lucy's collar as she plummeted a few feet to the ground. It really is the boobies...!

"WAHHHH!" the blonde wailed, landing on her butt beside the fire-breathing Natsu. "Damnit Happy! Don't just drop me!" she scolded as the blue cat whined an apology.

The flames danced against their faces, the entire village glowing steadily. Orange hues and red embers lit up the darkening sky, and Lucy realized their reward would probably be cut in half.

Or more.

Or even more than that.

"Natsu don't burn everything!" Lucy begged though knowing, it was futile. She got up slowly, rubbing her behind tenderly. But he's right... Forget the reward for now! Together we can win! "Yes, we can do this together," she said aloud. "That's what Fairy Tail is all about!" She pulled out Scorpio's key, ready to avenge Taurus.

::-::-::-::-::-::-::-::-::-::-::-::-::-::-::

Juvia nodded fiercely, her legs picking her up to stand beside Gray. "Y—Yes!" She had accessed her first origin as well; the second, in reserve, was about to be utilized. "Do you remember what we did before, Gray-sama?! When we combined our powers? It's the only way we will win!" This is not about holding hands; Juvia must save the female mages from these perverts!

"HAAAAAAA!" A lightning blast flew from Glenn's fingertips toward the wounded mages, aimed to send them into peril.

It was imperative that Juvia did not waste a second in the evasion. "Watch out Gray-sama!" she cried as she pushed Gray aside in one barreling motion, successively evading the dire situation they would have been in if the attack had hit.

The ice mage was panting but he paused to spit blood out of his mouth. "Thanks Juvia... Let's show 'em how strong Fairy Tail mages are!" He grinned at her quickly before glaring at the idiot in front of him. "You prick," he all but growled.


A/N: Chapter 2 done! I really hope you guys enjoyedddd! I hope the battle scenes were pretty epic; I tried to make everything canon-esque. The battle will continue in chapter 3! I know I ended it at a cliffhanger, but blame Darkhope because she takes forever to respond to the rp...ARGH!
