Chapter 6- The Glowing Stone
"It's time. It's now time for my comeback," a female hissed as she walked across her throne room.
She suddenly stopped then clapped her hands once. Immediately a young male with red hair came in. He had a scar that stretched across his face from his left cheek down to the right of his chin.
"Mair, gather the others. It is finally time!" she exclaimed. He gave her an evil smile and bowed.
"As you wish, Azul-sama," he hissed as he walked out while bowing. She smirked then walked to her throne and sat.
"Lyga and Jupiter," she said darkly. "You're days are over as is your little brat's. Get ready for your destruction," she said while glaring with darkness sweeping over her.
Lucy laughed and shrieked as Natsu chased her. "Come back here Luce!" he roared as he chased her with an angry expression on his face.
"No! I'm sorry! It was on accident!" she exclaimed as she dodged him and rolled the other way.
He groaned with frustration and began running after her again. "No it wasn't! You know it wasn't!" he roared as he began gaining on her. She gasped and began running faster.
"Yes it was!" she exclaimed as tears of laughter ran down her cheeks. She was having a blast. She had 'accidentally' mixed dirt with water and painted him with it but it was for the fun of it. It has been a year since she met Natsu. They had gone on so many adventures and grew close too. They knew pretty much everything about each other. But Lucy withheld one small fact from him and so did he.
They both kept what kingdom they were from to themselves. She didn't want him to know just because he didn't really need to know and because, what if they were enemies? What would become of their friendship?
Suddenly she felt a warm hand wrap around her wrist and stop her. The impact caused her to trip and fall and pull Natsu down with her.
They began rolling down a hill with them crying out in pain as branches and rocks pierced their skin.
After a minute of rolling they came to stop in a grassy field with Natsu on top of Lucy. They were both flushed in the cheeks and began laughing ignoring the pain. After calming down somewhat, they looked into each others eyes.
Natsu looked down at her and gave her a small smile after a while. She looked at him and blushed slightly. His eyes were so gentle.
"Lucy..." he whispered ever so gently. Her eyes widened slightly as she watched him lean towards her face. She felt herself leaning upwards but before they could make contact, a bright glowing light began shining on them. They pulled away while covering their eyes.
"What is that?!" asked Lucy through clenched teeth.
"I don't know. Let's go check it out," he answered as he got off of her and held a hand out to her. She took it and together they walked towards the light that was blinding them while the wind whipped around them.
The light led them to a cave that went underneath the planet. The light began dimming the closer they got.
Finally, the light dimmed completely and they finally put their hands down. Lucy then realized she was still holding his hand and he was still holding hers.
But she shrugged it off and looked where the source of the light was. She then saw it. It was a purple-ish and reddish stone floating above a small table top. It was glowing and Lucy seemed drawn to it.
It wasn't a stone she saw before so she began walking towards it, letting go of Natsu's hand in the process.
"Lucy," Natsu said in a warning tone.
"It's alright," she barely whispered back as she went nearer to it. She looked at it and reached a hand out.
Her fingers brushed by it and she gasped, feeling a strong sense of energy come from it. "Lucy," Natsu said again this time louder.
She ignored him and walked closer to it. "I wonder how heavy it is," she whispered as she reached out and touched it. She yelped but didn't let go. More like, she couldn't.
Suddenly she began screaming. "NATSUU!" she screamed as the stone began burning her and sending electricity into her body.
"LUCY!" he yelled as he ran to her and tried grabbing the stone from her but he too got caught into it. He cried out in pain as he felt the shocking sensation pulse through him as well.
He watched through slightly clenched eyes as Lucy began glowing purple. She was in pain he could tell because her face was strained and beads of sweat dripped from the side of her face and tears cascaded down her cheeks. .
After what seemed like forever, but was actually three minutes, the glowing stopped and the electricity passed no more.
Lucy fell to the floor unconscious and he did the same, the stone rolling away from them. He looked at her as his world began turning black.
"Lu...cy," he barely whispered before he was consumed with darkness.
What did y'all think of this chapter and be honest. Was it too short? Should I have added more things to it? Or was it alright? I hope so. Anyway, hang tight for the next chapter, The Change. Thanks minna!
