Last chapter. I finished this story ages ago but had some problems loading it up. Happy though that i've finished my first story. Please dont critise too much, i'm only a beginner.
"Err Natsu? Juvia does not understand all this mechanic stuff?" Juvia asked, as she stared in amazement to a room that was totally alien to her. Natsu on the other hand did what he did best. Destroy things.
"Don't worry Juvia, all i have to do is smash it to pieces" and with that, the machines lay in a ruin on the floor. A large zapping sound echoed around the room; the sound of heavy footsteps came tumbling up towards the control room. Demons. Natsu's body flew up in flames while Juvia's circled in water.
"Let's show these bastards what we're made of" Natsu grinned, while Juvia nodded in agreement.
Gray's hands froze. Ready to kill Lucara with his first move. Lucara sniggered at the ice mage, and flickered his scrawny little tongue. "You can't beat me, dear boy. I am the king of the Demons. Surely you must know how powerful i am?" Gray circled around Lucara, trying to make sense of what his magic is. "I don't give a damn wether your the king of the Demons or if your the emperor of the world. No one and I mean no one hurts Lucy and gets away with it" He growled, ready to pounce at Lucara's first move.
"HAHAHAHAHA, ahh dear boy you clearly know nothing". The ground violently shook, sending rubble flying everywhere. Loki grabbed Lucy and hurried underneath an archway for shelter. A sharp crack shot through the ground and vigorously shook apart. Leaving a sea of lava inbetween. The sky grew black and lightning blasted through the clouds. The whole place looked suddenly different. Lucara twisted round behind Gray and whispered in his ear "Dark vapour".
Before Gray had time to react a blast of dark magic, shoved him into a wall. Crackling sounds were made as his fragile bones snapped. Gray groaned in agony. He;s harder to defeat then he looks. Lucy pushed Loki aside and ran over to help Gray, but he managed to grab back hold of her.
"No Loki! I need to help Gray."
"Leave him Lucy, he need's to do this by himself."
"But he need's my help she wept"
Loki pulled her into chest and bent his head down beside her. "I know Lucy, I know"
Gray pulled himself together and quickly froze his wound. He spat out the blood from his mouth and lunged towards the Demon. "Ice make Bow!" He cried, shooting out shards of ice. Lucara meerly brushed them away and smiled. "You can't expect to defeat me with that pathetic attack".
Gray trembled in anger. He wouldn't lose no matter what, but he needed some sort of plan. He looked up towards the castle towers. "Oi Natsu, Juvia come help me out, yeah" The two mages dropped silently by his side.
"Juvia will do anything for Gray-sama, even if it means losing her life, she will do it" Gray turned to Juvia and gleamed. "Lets get this over with, I wanna tear this bastard apart for kidnapping Lucy". Nastu glided over to where Lucara stood. " Salamander's brilliant flame" A stroke of fire cut across Lucara's body and sent him landing backwards.
"Juvia's water lock!" Lucara was then held up in a thick ball of water and sent smashing through the wooden gates. Gray reached over and punched him right in the face, then flipped over and cried. "Ice make Geyser". Lucara was hoisted into the air, by hundreds of beams of ice, slicing through his body. He chokced on his saliva and blood, and fell unconciouss. The mages cheered as Lucara finally seemed to be dead. Juvia and Natsu lept up and hugged each other tightly, as joyful as ever. Gray looked over towards Lucy.
She looked back at him. It had been ages since they had last been together, and now they could share an intimite moment. The others noticed their presence and tiptoed over towards the gates. Natsu glanced over his shoulder at Lucy. He knew it was never ment to be and he would have to accept that.
Gray held Lucy carefully, not wanting to hurt her fragile body figure. Their eyes met and their emotions bonded. Gray lifted a hand onto Lucy's chin and tilited her head up towards his. He bent down to give her a kiss.
BAM!
The pair broke away as tiny particles of ice wooshed through the air, as Lucara came beaming towards Gray. "Your not getting rid of me that easily" Lucara lifted Gray's body shooting into the sky and threw him over towards the pit of lava underneath them.
Lucy screamed out as she saw Gray tumbling down to his death. Gray latched onto the edge of the ground, struggling to climb to safety. Lucara stood over him and trod on his hands, breaking his fingers. One by one. Gray yelped in pain and tried to hang onto the rocks.
"You really think that someone like you can beat someone like me?" Lucara spat, as he broke yet another of Gray's fingers. "I will have Lucy wether you like it or not. Haha"
Natsu, Juvia and Loki ran back into the castle grounds after hearing all the commotion. Juvia saw Gray hanging to his death and immediantly rushed over to give him help. Loki held her back. It was too dangerous. "No Juvia must always help Gray-sama, I love Gray-sama so very much" Juvia bursting into tears at the thought of her beloved dying. "I know Juvia but trust me leave it to Natsu"
Natsu peered over towards the distraught Lucy, lying on the ground. She was just staring over at Gray, no emotion at all. He couldn't bear to see the girl he truely ever loved hurt so much. He looked back over to where Lucara stood and knew there was only one thing left to do. His hands up in a fighting position, his whole body up in flames. Running over to Lucara he shouted out at the top of his lungs "I'm going to kill you, you bastard!" With that Natsu knocked Lucara over the edge, and himself too. He had to go to. He had to make sure that Lucara wouldnt escape, so in the end Natsu had to die. For his friend and his love.
Gray stared in astonishment at the scene below. he waited for a few minutes, hoping that the dragon slayer would some how come back up. He didnt. Loki bent over and picked Gray back over to the edge. Everyone was quiet. They all stared in disbelief at Natsu's sacrifice. Lucy rushed over to Gray and held onto him, never to let go. Gray held her back and pulled her round so he could see her face. His lips crushed down on hers. Full of passion and love. The pair finally got to be together.
Juvia turned around in embaressment and Loki laughed at the pair next to him. They had finally rescued Lucy, but with a devastating cost. As the pair broke apart Gray smiled and stood Lucy up. "You know Lucy theres always been something I've wanted to tell you, I.." Lucy put a finger over his lips to silence him. "Gray, I love you" Gray gleamed down at her "Lucy, I love you too" and the pair shared another kiss.
"Sorry to interrupt you guys, but I think we need to be heading back to the guild. Juvia might just have a breakdown and we need to tell everyone of Nats.." Loki hesitated at the name. Everyone looked down. It was saddening to loose a comrade, especially Natsu. The mages gathered themselves together and walked out through the wooden doors. Lucy glanced back at the image of the castle. A place she would never hope to see again.
All of a sudden the ground rumbled and lava spurted out over the castle. Something large shot out and growled throught the air. A certain someone that, the mages thought they would never see again. That certain person who was everyones favourite dragon slayer.
Natsu flew through the air and landed next the others. A great big grin on his face. Lucy and everyone else ran over and hugged Natsu. "Natsu we thought you were dead!" Natsu only chuckled "Well you know me, I never give up do I?" And the others laughed feebly and headed over back to the guild. Natsu paused for a second. "Wait,. . . wheres Happy?" The others peered around that's right where is Happy?
*Damn Natsu and Gray leaving me here at the restraunt to work for the food they didnt pay*
The end ^_^
