I don't own Fairy Tail Mashima Sensei does *sigh* I also don't own Lady and the Tramp Disney does *sigh*
"I finally did it!" Levy shouted triumphantly.
"You truly are amazing, Levy!" Said Jet excitedly
"Yeah" Droy chimed in.
After a whole three hours in an isolated, dark library she had finally deciphered an ancient text that a small town archaeologist had uncovered, the text was weird and to be honest had frightened her a bit however this ancient language had been lost for years and it excited the script mage to be given the opportunity to read . The text itself spoke about an ancient darkness or evil that would rise again to shroud this world and many others in eternal darkness; however this evil needed a soul capable of giving it this power in order to achieve its goal.
"I guess we better go back to that archaeologist and get our reward money" Levy sighed, her head aching after all that reading. Jet and Droy nodded enthusiastically and they all got ready to leave but suddenly a cloud a black smoke emerged from the book.
"Levy..." Said Jet. The black smoke formed a man with a gothic like appearance of pale skin and jet black hair. The mages stood frozen with jet and Droy standing protectively in front of Levy. The man smiled, only it was cold and evil as his entire arm turned into the black smoke and knocked the two mages away leaving Levy to fight alone. She stood in fighting stance, ready to protect her nakama as she placed her hands in the air and shouted:
"Solid script: BOMB!"
The words exploded in the mystery attackers face leaving a thick cloud of grey coloured smoke, causing the script mage to have a coughing fit. She scanned the dim room once the smoke had cleared only no one was there.
"Shadow claw!" Her attacker shouted Then suddenly a cloud of black smoke, in the shape of a claw appeared whacking her into a book shelf, hundreds of books falling on top her and splinters of wood scratching her skin, she slowly stood up, wincing in pain as she noticed a deep claw mark on her side which was bleeding. Her attacker offered little respite as the thick black smoke appeared again, grabbing her by the throat tightly, causing her to gasp for air.
"Who...are you?" she asked her voice partially a whisper. Her attacker smiled evilly and replied.
"I am darkness". She winced in pain as he increased his grip on her neck.
"I guess I have to do this... Solid script: LIGHT!" she shouted as loud as she could. A bright, blinding light appeared from the words causing her attacker to shriek in pain, he dropped her to the floor and Levy watched with her vision fading as her attacker disappeared. Then it all went black.
Levy quickly sat up to only realise that she was no longer in the library, but now the guild
Infirmary, she winced in pain as the sharp movement caused her wound to sting.
"So you're awake now, shrimp" Gajeel sighed. Gajeel what was he doing here? Levy knew that the two had gotten closer since Tenrou, but he was the first person to see her since she got attacked, the thought made the blunette blush slightly as she looked over at the dragon slayer, sitting on a small chair in the corner of the room.
"How long was I out?" she asked, her eyes fixed on her hands, she didn't dare to look him in the eye.
"Just over an hour" Gajeel told her, staring right at her she could feel his eyes on her.
"Jet and Droy will be worried" She sighed.
"Let them worry" He said "You need to rest". Levy looked up at Gajeel, was he worried about her?
"I know...but they most likely feel guilty or feel that they couldn't protect me" She said
"Well they can't, if I were with you I would have done a better job than those two idiots" He growled.
"They're not idiots, they just can be a bit...obsessive" Levy stated, trying and failing to protect her team mates.
"Hmm seems to me that-"he stopped mid sentence as he started to sniff the air..
" Gajeel, what wrong?" Levy asked, as she sat up on her knees.
"Sshh, shrimp" he said. She hated the little nicknames he gave her. She watched him intensively as he continued to sniff the air, she giggled as she thought Gajeel looked pretty similar to Trusty from Lady and the Tramp as he sniffed for scents.
"It's getting stronger, that smell" he said
"What smell" she asked, getting pretty agitated
"The Darkness" He said making Levy freeze. That's what her attacker called himself, so did that mean..
"Gajeel!" Levy shouted as thick cloud of black smoke attacked, sending him into the wall. Levy ran over to her nakama, he was alright. She turned around to see that the smoke had materialised into the same gothic like man from before and he wore the same evil smile.
"Hello again, Levy"
I just hope that I made the mystery attacker evil and weird enough all will be revealed as to why he keeps attacking Levy and hopefully more GaLe! Review and all that let me know what you think. Next Chapter on the way.
