Bixanna Week Day Seven: Future

Lisanna could feel her lungs burning but she ignored them and continued running forward, following the back of her guild member, Bixlow.

Seeming to sense her exhaustion he turned around to her and said "Come on Lis, we can't stop we might find someone. Just keep running soon the pain will be numb" but judging by his panting he wasn't doing much better. All around them there was fire and rubble of mavis knows what. It had happened so suddenly, one minute they were celebrating their victory in the Grand Magic Games and the next dragons where attacking and there was fire and screams and…

That was only two hours ago but it had felt like years. She and her siblings had got spilt up and she had run into a wandering Bixlow. When she had asked about the rest of the Raijin where he had simply nodded his head and she dropped the topic. They had not seen anyone in a while, that was alive. That was a lie in a way, they had found Lucy but she hadn't been in good shape, a decapitated arm was never a good thing. Mix the pain of that with a dead Natsu and the results were not to be good. They had tried to convince her to come with them but she had told them that she would just slow them down.

Lisanna remembered the way she had said that, as if she was dead already, she didn't look any better to be honest. Lisanna wondered if that was how people acted after watching someone they loved die. Shaking the thoughts from her head Lisanna concentrated all her willpower on running forward until she heard an ear shattering roar. Her and Bixlow's head whirled around and saw a giant black dragon heading towards them. Her heart filled with terror at the sight, it reminded her so much of Archnologia. When it landed it caused the earth to shake. She felt glued to the spot before she felt someone squeeze her shoulder.

Looking back she saw Bixlow looking at the dragon before opening his mouth "How much magic power do you think ya got Lis?"

"None really"

"Same" he muttered "This looks like this might be the end of the line Lis"

"I'm surprised I made it this far. Half of the guild has died, looks like we might be joining them soon"

"Yeah" Bixlow said before licking his lips, "I wonder what it feels like to die" he said as the dragon opened his mouth.

Grabbing his hand Lisanna said "I bet it doesn't hurt one bit"

"Good" he said squeezing

"Let's go see our friends" Lisanna smiled at him.

"Too bad we didn't get to see the future together.

"Yeah, too bad" she said right as they were encased in a bright light. Lisanna had been right, it didn't hurt at all.
