Hey Everyone. I'm really sorry for my late update. I'm now one whole week in Cape Town. I just miss home and the inspiration that was coming back to me. I think I have a few ideas but I only don't know how to get there or how I would end this fanfiction. Without ruining it.


So here we go again:
TARTARUS SPOILERS~

Chapter Thirteen: A Light in the Darkness

"I'm Sting Eucliffe."
I nodded, "Why are you here? Do I know you?" was the only thing I could say to the man. I could hear he was young, probably younger than I was. My age was.. was.. 24 or so I think. I tried to remember some things but I couldn't. Besides it made everything very difficult because I couldn't see. I softly threw my feet over the rim of the bed and touched the ground. A flood of feelings and energy reached me. I could see in one way or another. Although I still couldn't see in a real way, I still didn't know how this Sting Eucliffe looked like.
"We are familiar with each other. Luka. How do you feel?" He lingered on my name. there was something about my name. Something that made it sound so weird for him to say it. "Why do you say my name so weird? What's going on? Why can't I see." I heard him sigh but I didn't know why. I stretched my hand to touch him but even though I could feel his energy through my feet, I couldn't find him that easy. I felt his hand against mine, he laced his fingers through mine and I felt a rush off emotions through me. Sadness, happiness, love I guess and maybe Envy? I wasn't sure how to name it. It felt weird to have his fingers laced with mine, but on the other hand it felt reassuring. "Sting? How do I know you?" He stayed silent and I tried to listen to his breathing. Just to make sure if he was annoyed, afraid or whatsoever. "We meet at the Grand Magic Games." Grand..magic games? What was that? "You came there with your Guild." My right foot began to tingle. "My Guild?" I asked really dazed and I tried to let go of Sting his hand but he grabbed my wrist with his free hand. "Listen to me. I know who you are. We are friends. Really good ones. You found your guild, you found your sister. You helped me save Sabertooth. You are so, so, so kind Luka. Don't forget all of this." I tried my best to remember everything, I found my sister? Erza. I should focus on Erza. I felt that I started to cry and it hurt my eyes. So I only cried more. "Why can't I remember anything? I can't even remember her face." I sniffed and I tried to stop crying but I had only one hand to wipe my tears away. "Why are you crying?" Sting asked me and I shook my head. "Because you can't remember it?" I nodded and I cried some more. If I was blind forever, I would never remember my sister her face. "Bring me there. To my Guild. To my sister." I whispered in between my heavy outbursts. I gasped because I felt his lips on mine.

Although I stopped crying, I stared into the nothing-ness. "What did you do?", "Calm you down." I quickly stood up. Wobbly but I stood. "Well I rather had it that you did it a different way." I could at least sense where everything stood, so I didn't bump into something. It took me a few seconds to find the doorknob though. "I need a nurse." I said out loud once I left my room. I could feel energy of people and I believed I was in a hospital. "Where am I?" Someone came rushing towards me. "You should lie down miss Scarlet." That was obviously not my surname, not that I could recall what it originally was but whatever. "Where am I?", "Era, miss Scarlet.", "Luka?" This was getting so confusing. Era.. Where was Era. I tried to picture the map of Fiore in front of me. "What am I doing here?", "Leave this to me." I wanted Sting Eucliffe away from me. "Explain everything to me. Sting. I need to know."

It was silent for a long time. The nurse didn't move, Sting didn't move nor said anything. I just stood there. "People found you in the Library. No one knew whom you were only that you were half dead. There was blood everywhere, or so I have heard. Your eyes were.. bloody. Rogue and I went to travel after a while, after everything was okay with Sabertooth. I hope that rings a bell. We just wanted to see a bit more, no one had heard from you in a week. Your sister, Erza knew that you went to the Library but said no one should bother you if you were on a mission." So Sting knew my sister too, that gave me a little bit of a better feeling about him. Little bit, he did just kissed me! "However Rogue and I heard about the attack on the library while we were on our travels. So we visited the place of the library and they told us that there was a mage, brought to the hospital in Era. I send Rogue back to contact Erza but I haven't heard of him or of Erza. That's been two days ago. They might be here any minute. I don't know." I wobbled again on my not so strong legs. I had to lean to something but I couldn't reach the wall or Sting pulled me towards him. "Luka, believe me. I didn't do it to bother you." I believed that if I could see: that the nurse would stare at us. "Look I don't care. I want my memory back and my eye-sight." I pushed him away. "Can I get dressed in normal clothes now? I need to go and find my sister.", "She might be on her way here." Sting said and I turned back to him. Or well I hoped towards him. "Look I don't care. Where is this place, where is my Guild. I'll be going."

The nurse helped me to get dressed: super awkward. I was at least glad that I could see somehow through the earth. I whispered with the Nurse, because I knew Sting was still out there. "Whom is he? What guild am I part of?" She had to know my name if she called me miss Scarlet. "He is the Guildmaster of Sabertooth. You are miss Luka Scarlet from Fairy Tail. The Earth Dragon Slayer. I've seen you on the lacrima screens during the Grand Magic Games. That was two weeks ago." Two weeks ago? I've been gone for two weeks? "And what kind of Magic does Sting possess?", "The Light Dragon Slayer." I gasped. More Dragon slayers and I couldn't even remember him. "So I can trust him?" I think she nodded because she quickly said yes after a while. "Good to know."
I left the room again and found Sting his energy. "Let's go." I tried my best to walk out of the room but I bumped into something that was overhanging but for the rest it went all fine. "Maybe we should take a carriage." Sting didn't sound really happy when he said that. "Is it far to Magnolia?", "Yeah." I heard that he walked a little bit away from me, so I stood there. Extending my scan through the earth surface because there were so many impressions. I was actually quite surprised that the hospital let me leave. Especially since I woke up only this morning. I didn't question it though, I didn't want to stay there any longer. I felt that Sting came back, how easy it was to recognize his energy. His fragment. It might feel a bit familiar. "I found one." So he held my hand and brought me indeed to a carriage. I couldn't remember why I didn't like the idea, but as soon as the carriage began to move I remembered: motion sickness.

Still I tried to keep myself strong and wait until we arrived in Magnolia. Which was a long journey. I was at least glad that Sting felt the same as I did. Only I probably felt worse. "Do you know what happened in the library?" I asked. "No." His answer was really short and it sounded grumpy. Maybe he didn't like talking when he was nauseous. I looked for his hand somewhere but couldn't find it. He didn't grab it. I didn't know what more to say. So I sat there, quietly, hoping we would arrive in Magnolia soon. When we did, Sting grabbed my elbow and escorted me through the people. "Here we are." I didn't feel much people anymore, well not close around me. I could feel that I could walk straight ahead and there would be a building. So I did. It should be my Guild. I opened the door and there was a lot of noise. I heard people talking, yelling, drinking, eating. I could feel a lot of people their energy. Suddenly it all became quiet. "Sting, how do I actually look? You know from a scale of one to ten. One being half dead and ten being absolutely gorgeous." It still was very quiet. "I would give it a three." Great, absolutely wonderful. "You are beautiful but well your eyes might be.. a little bit scary." What was going on with my eyes? I quickly touched my cheekbones and slowly moved up with my fingers. "I wouldn't do that if I were you." They were gone. My eyes were simply gone. "Sting.. a little bit scary is an understatement." I said icy. "Luka! I'm so glad you are here." I heard a male voice but I didn't know whom it was. "It's Luka with Sting." And so much more voices, saying my name. Coming towards me. Touching me, shaking my hand. Petting me. And then suddenly they all stepped aside. There was someone coming towards me, her energy so familiar that I knew whom it was. I cried again, don't ask me how. "Erza?", "Yes, it's me. Take it easy honey." She held me and I cried and cried. "Levi, Jet, Droy. Go get Porlyusica. Luka needs help." I didn't really forgot the voice but I also couldn't place it. It was a wildly guess but a reasonable one: "Master?"

I heard someone crying and I tried to find the person but I couldn't, doh I didn't see a thing. I stretched my hand toward the person that was crying, well maybe it was a child? "Will you be alright Luka?" The child spoke between its sobs. It was a girl. "I will. I will remember all of you and I will see again. I promise." There were gasp from a lot of people around me. "Did I forgot to mention that she lost her memory?" Sting said quite airy behind me. "Not funny." Erza said and she held my shoulder. "Asuka, it will be fine." I looked up, or I tried to. That voice. I stretched my hand towards the voice. "I know you." I said softly but I couldn't get the name. I could remember something green. "It's me Luka. Bisca.", "Bisca?" I repeated because it wasn't ringing a bell or so. "Do you have green hair?" I asked and I heard another round of gasps. "I do." Something inside me stirred but I didn't know what. "Luka, what hair colour do I have? I'm Natsu. Natsu Dragneel, remember?" I took a few steps back and bumped into someone obviously. I didn't know why but the name Natsu Dragneel, didn't make me very happy, no it made me afraid.

"She should go to the medical room." Another voice, a sweet one. "We will bring her. Don't we?" Another one, and obviously not speaking to me. "Yes, Juvia agrees." A hand grabbed my left hand and another one my right. "You will be fine Luka. We will look after you. I'm Lisanna." Lisanna and Juvia. There was a slight bell ringing in the back of my mind. "We are your partners." I tried to smile. There was someone missing in my mind. I only couldn't place it of course. Lisanna and Juvia brought me to the medical room, they gave small hints from where to step. I didn't tell them I could see perfectly fine through the earth. If you only talked about objects. "Lisanna-san? Juvia-san? Why do I have the feeling that I am missing someone?" The both of them held still and I think stared at me. "You are missing someone?" Lisanna said, so I nodded. "Juvia knows. Luka-san is missing Laxus." I felt a blush reaching my cheeks. Laxus? Who was Laxus? My heart was beating louder and there was again this feeling of something stirring inside me. I let go of their hands and walked to the next door. "Here? Is this the.." A picture of a blonde man appeared before me, in my mind. I took a step backwards but of course that had no effect.

This was so strange, I remembered the fragment of Erza, I could remember the name Natsu Dragoneel. Bisca her haircolour. The names Juvia and Lisanna were familiar. I could remember a feeling that was associated with Laxus. What was going on?
