Chapter 2
The birds sang loudly outside my window. I yawned as I got ready for the day ahead.
I was in the shower when I noticed my rune was glowing a gold colour. It's never done that before. I quickly got dressed in a red top with white shorts and put a new bandana in my hair. Then I left in a hurry to get to the library.
As I was walking I noticed that people were staring at my wrist. This meant that people could see the mark now. Scrap the idea to go to the library, I need to go see Master.
I darted for the guild and when I reached the doors I walked in only to be met by silence. I hid my hand behind my back and realised everyone was staring at me and Gajeel was sitting by the bar with a look of regret on his face.
"Welcome back, Levy" The guild cheered
I am confused. I didn't really go anywhere yet people are welcoming as if I was on the other side of the planet.
"Um hi" I responded in a shy manner.
After a while the guild went back to normal. I remember my wrist and make my way to the Master's office when I get stopped by Lucy.
"Hey Levy" She smiled
"Oh hey Lu- how was your mission?" I asked in a happy tone
"Yeah it was great- I heard about the Gajeel thing…" My mood instantly dropped.
"Well let's just say truth hurts" I whispered trying to remain smiling.
Lucy was about to argue when Natsu called her,
"Hey Luce, let's go on a mission- it can cover rent for a whole year" He shouted from the quest board.
She looked at me and sighed, "We will finish this later ok?"
I nodded with a hum of agreement. I watched her walk away and knocked on Master's door.
"Come in" I heard the Master call.
I entered slowly and shut the door behind me. The old man looked up from the paperwork on his desk and smiled up at me.
"What can I do for you Levy my dear?" He asked with a kind smile
Without saying a word I showed him my wrist. I couldn't tell what he was thinking when I showed him.
"What does it mean?" I whispered slowly
He stood up from the chair he was sitting on, walked to the bookshelf and selected a particular book.
"Have you ever heard of Angel Runes?" He questioned whilst turning to a particular page.
"Um, no. Is that why I couldn't find this rune in any of my research?" I started getting curious.
"Well this type of Rune is extremely rare because it can only be cast by an Angel or Angel Slayer. Your Rune is a Protection Rune meaning that it protects you from being 'revealed' or 'seen' by others who would kill you if you have that rune" He stated.
"Why would I need to be protected? I'm just a small Solid Script mage" I said in a quiet voice.
"Well chances are that you might have Angel blood within you. I'm going to contact some old friends of mine, I will inform you when I have any news. For now, just wave your hand over the rune and it should go invisible again." He informed.
I waved my hand over the Rune and it stopped glowing. Why would it be glowing though? What if I'm in danger?
I thanked the Master and walked out of the office quickly only to crash into a hard iron chest which had to belong to Gajeel.
"Sorry, I wasn't looking where I was going…" I whispered as I dusted myself off and tried to walk around him only to have my wrist held by his hand.
"We need to talk…"
