Hey guys :D Last chapter before the special :D (Last chapter has been edited, so please read it ;))
And again: I don't own Fairy Tail, just the plot and my character :D
Jess stood up and walked towards Erza and Mira, who looked, like they would kill Gray any minute. "Calm down. He can't remember me, so what?" Her voice was calm and her behaviour too, but her eyes showed her hurt. Gray saw this and did a step towards his former teammate. Jess stopped him. "Just leave me alone." A tear rolled down her cheek, but she wiped it away so quickly, that only Erza, Mira and the ice mage Gray could have seen it. The boy shook his head. "No, I want to remember you. Why does it hurt you so much?" Jess turned around and walked quickly towards the Guild entrace. "No." But Gray continued to follow her. "I said leave me alone!", she yelled at him and threw a spear of ice at Gray. It just missed his right ear by a couple of millimetres. He just stood there in shock. Mirajane and Erza glanced at one another and followed Jess. They wanted to help her, no matter what they would have to do.
The raven-haired girl just sat down on the open field, sobbing. She hugged her knees tightly and rocked herself back and forth. Until she heard steps approaching her. She looked at the intruders after she wipped awas her tears. Then she recognized that it were her two best friends, Mirajane and Erza. "Hey Jess", Erza said softly, not wanting to scare her. "We thought, that you might need a shoulder to cry on..." "Or two!", Mirajane added. Jess couldn't help but smile, then she hugged the two magicians. "T-thank y-you", she sobbed. "It's alright. Just tell us, okay?" Jess nodded. "Well, I guess, that I should tell you my story." Mira gave the young woman a reassuring smile.
~~~timeskip: 10 years ago~~~ (Jess is now 7)
"No!" A young girl cried and stared in shock at the dead body in front of her. "Mommy! Wake up, please w-" The girl was silenced by a man kicking her into the stomach. Actually, the man was the girl's father. "Be quiet!" He shouted angrily. The father looked down at the lifeless body of his wife. She had died, because she wanted to protect her stepdaughter from her cruel husband. He actually blamed the girl for the death of her mother. She died giving birth to Jess. "Get into your room, the man said, his speech slurred by alcohol. The girl just nodded and ran. She felt a sharp pain in her back when her father hit her with a beer bottle. Jess cried out in pain, but cept running. Back in safety, back in her room, she sat down in a corner of the room and cried herself to sleep.
~~~timskip ends~~~
"When I turned 9 my dad died. Because I killed him." Jess took in a deep breath. "My family has a special ability. Some of us can control a special shadow magic. And every hundred years one child can control a special type of Take Over. The Take Over of the 'Abandoned Angel of Darkness'. Unfortunately this child was me. I didn't knew anything about all this stuff and one day it just happened. I killed him after he rapped me." Mirajane and Erza gasped in shock. "My relatives passed me on, nobody wanted to have me. They all said, it was my fault. I did everything wrong and nobody liked me. Until I ran away and met Ur. She showed me how to control my magic and how to use ice magic, since I didn't liked my own magic. After she choose Lyon as a student I left her, because by this time I've got surpassed her already. I wandered around and trained my skills, but never used them in battle, unless I had to protect others... I hate my abilities. I just used the Take Over once after I've got killed my father." Jess trailed off. "When?", Mira asked her softly. "To safe Gray's life..." Mirajane looked at her, Erza walked towards Jess and hugged her tightly. When she let go of the young woman, Jess gasped for breath. "But why are you so upset with Gray?" Jess looked down to her feet, blushing bright red. Erza smiled. "She loves this stupid stripper..." Mirajane smiled too, happy for Jess. Then she shivered. "I don't know, what about you two, but I'm freezing my butt off... Let's go back to the guild." Erza nodded. "I'm glad, that you trusted us Jess. And I promise, that we'll help you." Jess smiled. "Okay. The two of you can go, but I'm going home."
As Jess walked off, Mira grinned towards Erza. "Since we have christmas next week, I definitely know, what we'll give Jess..."
Jess walked home, relieved, that she had told her two friends her past. She smiled weakly. 'Maybe Gray will remember me one day. I just want him to be happy.' With this thoughts she entered her appartment, unsuspecting, what Mirajane and Erza were planning.
Hope you like her past :D
