"LUCY! I SAID I WON'T FIGHT YOU! SO STOP! NOW!" Natsu yelled in anger as he stared at the angered blonde woman. Lucy narrowed her eyes at him as she glared. The guild members stared at them in shock and worry.
"Is Lucy being for real?" Lisanna gasped out in worry as she stared at the scene wide eyed. Mira stood next to her sister with a concerned look.
"She looks like she will not give up until she knows!" Mira muttered. A cold wind blew inside the guild making everyone shaking in fear knowing that the blonde woman is serious. Her eyes burned yellow as her body glowed. She stared at Natsu angered for what she wants to know.
"But Mira shouldn't someone stop them?" Wendy voiced her concern as she held onto Romeo's hand. Romeo squeezed her hand comfortingly.
"There will be no stopping them once they are determined on their decision! Lucy is determined to find answers on what happened to her while Natsu is determined to not tell her. No matter what we try we can't stop them. The only thing we can do is watch with the rest of everyone in worry that this doesn't turn out bad. Where is Erza when you need her?" Mira said as she grabbed a hold of her daughter's hands. All the kids stayed behind the bar with her just looking at the scene in front of them with worry. Everyone looked in worry.
"So what will it be, Natsu? Will we just stand here and have a stare off or will get some balls and fight me?" Lucy smirked at Natsu who just continued to stare.
Natsu ignored Lucy and turned to walk away. Lucy smirked as she stared at his walking back.
"Wrong answer!" Lucy said as a yellow barrier around them. Not letting anyone disturb their fight and not letting him walk away. Natsu turned to Lucy angered as he lit his body on fire.
"SO THIS IS THE ONLY SOLUTION FOR YOU! TO FIGHT TILL SOMEONE WINS!" Natsu yelled angered at the blonde woman that he holds feelings for.
"No! all I want is for you to tell me what happened to me! Please Natsu I don't want to fight with you!" Lucy said teary eyed as fake tears went down her face. Natsu looked at her wide eyed for a while then smirked.
"You really think that fake crying will work? I know how you are like! You wouldn't cry for something like this! Well with the way you are now!"
"It was worth a try!" Lucy shrugged as she charged directly towards Natsu. She went to kick him with her left leg, but Natsu grabbed her left foot before it even touched him. His onyx looked at the smirking blonde with worry.
"Remember you were the one who started this!" Natsu hissed as he glared at her honey brown eyes.
Lucy just smiled as she jumped up with her free foot and kicked him in the face. Natsu immediately let go of Lucy's foot as he stumbled back rubbing his bruised cheek. Lucy fell to the ground on her hands and knees. She smiled in satisfaction as she stood up to face the pink haired man.
"We could avoid all this if you just tell me!" Lucy spoke as she moved to punch Natsu with her right hand. Natsu moved to the side again and kicked her back in the process. Lucy let out a gasp of shock as she stumbled. Once she regained her footing she stared at Natsu in anger.
"Celestial spirits give me strength..abbas na chen fuune ma pa nay a!" Lucy chanted as her body sent out a massive amount of yellow light towards Natsu. The yellow light sped towards Natsu at an alarming rate. Natsu's eyes widened in shock knowing that he can't dodge it. The yellow energy light coming towards him seemed like it has life inside it wasn't just energy. It was alive.
"FIRE DRAGON ROAR!" Natsu yelled as he blew a huge amount of fire towards the light hoping it will stop it.
The fire and the light collided causing a great explosion in the guild. A blast of wind blew throughout the whole guild causing a ruckus of yelling from the guild members as they tried to hold on to each other and objects that flew everywhere. It was like a hurricane swept through the inside the guild. Everyone opened their eyes in shock to see Lucy and Natsu still standing just staring at each other.
"I don't want to hurt you! please just tell me!" Lucy begged as she looked at the dragonslayer with pleading eyes. She sucked most of the energy that the explosive had leaving her tired and the guild in one piece. If it wasn't for Igneel's scarf that one spell could have destroyed a whole country, but lucky Lucy had on Igneel's scarf to suck most of her magic.
"You're not ready to know!" Natsu simply said. Natsu looked at the blonde to only have his eyes widen in shock. Her eyes seemed to burn with yellow fire as she stared at him in anger. Her hair whipped everywhere as the glowing yellow light around her body increased to look like yellow soft flames flowing majestically around her. Her tiredness immediately forgotten.
"STOP TREATING ME AS IF I WAS A CHILD! I HAVE THE FUCKING RIGHT TO KNOW! YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND HOW I FEEL RIGHT NOW! YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND WHAT IT IS LIKE TO NOT KNOW WHAT HAPPENED TO YOU!" Lucy yelled golden daggers appeared on her hands as she charged towards Natsu with tears streaming down her face. Her strong façade broken as she lets the pain of her feelings take over. Natsu dodged as best he could not wanting to hurt the emotional blonde. "YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND HOW IT FEELS LIKE TO NOT KNOW YOUR LOVED ONES!" She cried as she continued to slash the daggers towards Natsu.
Lucy slashed her hands to the right Natsu tried to move as fast as he could out of the way, but the daggers tips touched his tan cheek. Natsu hissed in pain as blood oozed down his right cheek. It burned so much as if the sun's heat was on there. Through his right eye Natsu noticed steam coming off from the long gash. The guild gasped in shock as they stared in worry at them. They knew they couldn't do anything even if they tried it wouldn't do anything. The scene in front of them is breaking their hearts little by little. Lucy crying as she stood tall ready for a fight while she is emitting sorrow and anger out. Natsu stared at her wide eyed with regret in his eyes.
"YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND! THE PAIN I AM GOING THROUGH RIGHT NOW! IT HURTS SO MUCH NOT KNOWING WHAT HAPPENED TO ME!" She cried as she dropped the daggers and went to punch Natsu. Images flashed through Lucy's mind that are unknown to her. The images of pain, sorrow, and death.
The daggers immediately disappeared once they hit the ground. The blonde let out a battle cry as her fist neared Natsu's face. As she got closer the images in her mind go strong and more powerful. She continued to run towards him trying to ignore the images, but she never made it close to him. She just fell to the floor with her eyes closed with her last image being of Natsu yelling her name as he ran to her. The barrier around them immediately went down.
"LUCY!" Their shouts of worry echoed through the guild as they ran towards the blonde in worry. They stared in concern as they saw Natsu hold the troubled blonde to his chest. Master Markov made his way in front of the guild members to stand in front of Natsu and Lucy. The Master looked at them with concern as Natsu held Lucy protectively as tears went down his face. The blonde was breathing heavily with her eyes closed. She looked as she is living in a nightmare in her head.
"Master, what is wrong with her?" Mira said in concern as she held a crying Yumi close to her. Master looked at the guild members seeing each one of their faces then looking back at the troubled unconscious blonde.
"I'm afraid to think that she triggered something in her mind to release her memories." Loki spoke up as he and Capricorn stood next to Master looking at the pair on the floor. Natsu immediately snapped his head up and stared at them in shock.
"What you mean she triggered something to release her memories. You mean she will remember everything now." Natsu spoke in fear as he stared at them wide eyed.
"Not exactly."
"What you mean Loki?" Gray spoke as he held Juvia's hand in comfort. Loki was about to answer when Capricorn opened his mouth instead.
"It is basically this. The pain of wanting to find out what happened to her so much caused Lucy to trigger the memories of what happened to her. As we can see with her pained expression now she is reliving those memories in her head now." Capricorn spoke making everyone in the guild murmur their worry as they stared at the blonde. Tears coming down her eyes as they are shut close as if in pain. She is breathing heavily as sweat beats down her face.
"I didn't want this to happen." Natsu spoke sullenly as he held Lucy closer to his chest. Master walked up to the pink haired man and put his hand on his should comfortingly.
"How long will she be like this?" Master asked the former spirits. Loki and Capricorn looked at each other then back at the Master sighing for the news they are about to tell him. "How long?" Master repeated not liking the silence.
"We don't know…it could be days or even months, but what we know for sure is that she put herself in a coma." Loki spoke not liking the news he just said any more than the guild members.
"What you mean she put herself in a coma?" Levi asked in worry as everyone including her stared at Loki.
"The images are currently of the past events that led her to lose her memories are basically overwhelming her. She made herself be in a coma due to being overwhelmed with the pain and sorrow of the past. All we can do now is wait that she can pull herself out of it and accept what happened before." Capricorn spoke. Natsu let the words sink in as he stared at the pained unconscious blonde in his arms.
"And what will happen if she doesn't pull herself through it? If it saddens her more?" Natsu muttered out loud not letting his eyes turn away from the blonde.
"Her body will be forced back to the spirit world without anyway of returning back." Loki and Capricorn said at the same time refusing to look at anyone in the eyes.
"No! We just got her back!" Levi gasped in horror as tears came down her face. Everyone feeling the same way let their tears come down softly. "Hasn't she suffered enough? Why? Why now?"
"This is why I didn't want her to know?" Natsu muttered. Cana had enough. She immediately got up throwing her barrel on the floor as she marched right up to Natsu. Lifting her hand she smack him across his face making sure she hit his hurt cheek hard. Everyone looked at her in shock as Romeo ran to her to try to calm her down.
"YOU ASSHOLE! IF YOU WOULD HAVE JUST TOLD HER WE COULD HAVE AVOIDED ALL OF THIS! WE COULD HAVE COMFORTED HER! INSTEAD OF JUST STANDING AROUND IN SORROW WATCHING AS SHE IS IN A COMMA! WHY DID YOU REFUSE TO TELL HER! IT IS YOUR ENTIRE FAULT! IF SHE DISAPPEARS NATSU IT WILL BE YOUR FAULT!" Cana sobbed out as she went to go hit him again, but this time Romeo held her back along with Wendy. Cana thrashed to get free from their hold as she cried out.
"I know. I will take responsibility for it, I swear!" Natsu said as he stood up with Lucy still in his arms bridle style. He looked at everyone with an expressionless face without blinking.
Cana immediately calmed down, but still cried silently along with everyone in the guild. Everyone stared after Natsu as he walked silently to the guilds infirmary to lay the blonde down on the beds there.
"It's not fair! We just got her back!" Levi cried into Gajeel's chest. Gajeel comforted his wife as best he could by hugging her tighter to him.
"It's okay! Knowing bunny girl she won't let this stop her! She will come back. Don't worry ok!" Gajeel muttered compassionately as he wiped his wife's tears away. "Have more faith in her. Anyways if something goes down you think Natsu will let her disappear!" Everyone smiled at the iron dragonslayer knowing that he is right.
"Aw who knew you could be such a sweetheart Gajeel!" Gray cooed jokingly as he laughed at Gajeel.
"SHUT THE HELL UP, ICE MACHINE!" Gajeel yelled embarrassed. His cheeks becoming red.
"Awwwww he is blushing everyone!" The ice mage continued to tease the iron dragonslayer making everyone in the guild chuckle. Their tears dry. They chuckled as they believe in their hearts in Gajeel's words.
"I AM GOING TO BEAT THE SHIT OUT OF YOU, STRIPPER!" Gajeel yelled as he immediately let go of Levi to chase the already half naked Gray.
Levi walked silently towards the infirmary without being noticed by her guild members. She stood at the door frame looking in with an expressionless face. She stared at from the door frame at Lucy's unconscious figure lying down on one of the infirmary beds looking angelic and a tear going down her porcelain face. Natsu held onto Lucy's hand as he cried his sorrow. He prayed to the spirits to help her as he cried his apologies to the blonde. Telling her how he was wrong to just come back to him.
Levi immediately walked away from the scene unable to look anymore. Her tears going down her face as she stepped outside the guild through the backdoor to inhale some fresh air. Levi sighed as she leaned against the guild wall looking towards the cloudy sky with tears streaming down her face. A sound of thunder echoed around her as she saw the rain fall slowly down to the ground. The sky in sorrow as its tears continuously falling down.
"Even the sky is crying for you, Lu-chan!" Levi muttered sadly. She closed her eyes as she felt the tears of the sky hit her face and body. Her own tears coming down also. "We just got you back. You can't disappear again!"
"It does seem like we were with her for only a short time right?" Levi immediately opened her eyes as she snapped her head towards the door to see Mira, Cana, Aquarius, Wendy, and Erza standing outside also. "May we stand with you?" Mira asked. Levi nodded sadly as looked at them.
"Erza when did you come?"
"I arrived a few minutes ago and Mira briefed me on what has happened. I came with them outside in order to calm down." Erza spoke in her usual serious tone as she leaned against the wall along with the rest of the girls. They all closed their eyes as they let the rain fall on them.
"Do you think Lucy-san will come back?" Wendy let out in worry. Her voice sounding over the rain.
"She better or Natsu will pay for it!" Cana, Erza, and Aquarius said sadly as tears came down their faces.
"Have faith in her you guys!" Mira said as she looked at them. The girls opened their eyes staring at the white haired woman as she put her hands over her heart. "I believe she will make it through this and come to us safe and sound. Maybe happier than ever that the matter was resolved. Why don't we just believe in her and wait for now. We will smile, laugh, and have fun so that way when she wakes up she sees that we were waiting for her to come back home to us."
The girls looked at Mira smiling as they nodded. Just then the rain stops and the sky clears up slowly to reveal the most beautiful rainbow they have ever seen in their life. The girls marveled at it as they saw the colors sparkle and become more vibrant than ever. It was as if it was a sign.
"Hey guys! Maybe that rainbow is a sign from Lucy-san saying that we won't have to wait long for her to be better!" Wendy said brightly as she pointed to the rainbow smiling.
"Still a child." Erza smirked as she crossed her arms over her wet chest. She looked at Wendy with loving eyes as of sisters. "But you maybe right."
"She is right!" Levi spoke smiling as she continued to stare at the rainbow. The drenched girls looked at the sky and smiled. They stared at the rainbow. As the rainbow is their sign.
"Idiots act as if she died again." Aquarius mumbled under her breath as she sighed heavily.
