Emil C: Hints of GraLu this Chapter
Chapter 10: Regulus
"Lucy that was disastrous,"
Makarov showedd her the recording of yesterday's date and most of it
looked dim and blurred, the rest was just filled with the little mistakes that occurred
like the mistaken identity and look of horror on her face.
"If anything, it was more like an adult video or a horror film"
"So am I fired?"
"Heck no, the new owner quit and the company got merged with another company"
"Which company?"
Lucy started to get suspicious, this seems like what one of the guys would do.
"Regulus"
"The Regulus Company!"
She'd heard of them; they were one of the most popular programme companies in the world.
"Chief when did this happen?"
"Yesterday night when I was trying to tell you something,"
She remembered that she spooked last night and how nearly ended up chasing Makarov to a tree.
"Now your tv show is cancelled but they said that you still have to do the rest of your job"
Makarov held out a new contract for Lucy to sign.
She looked over it and noticed her pay had doubled and there were know hidden or awkward phrasing
like in the other contract and she immediately signed it.
"Great all you have to do now is meet him"
"What?"
She read the contract again, there was no mention of meeting anybody.
"Chief I have enough people to handle"
"Well I promised him that you would meet him"
"But-"
"Like I said NO buts, he'll meet you here at noon"
He handed her a card and she noticed that it had the location of the Regulus branch in the area.
Begrudgingly she accepted and look at the time.
It was 11:42; she's late already.
She ran out of the office, out of the building and into her car.
Dodging every car in her way but maitaining the speed limit sounds harder than it seems.
Luckily she made it to the building just 5 minutes late.
She walked over to the receptionist called Levi who informed her that the
her associate was waiting in the room over.
So she once again ran and stopped close to the door to catch her breath and compose herself.
With much trepidation she headed in to the room.
"Why Miss Lucy you are late... Very late"
The room was dimly lit and the man sat in a chair facing the other way.
His arm moved back and forth as if it was stroking something.
'Is he stroking himself?'
The chair swiveled around and she noticed the man was actually stroking a cat.
His face was hidden by a hat and his eyes were covered with a pair of sunglasses.
"I don't like to be kept wating you know"
"I'm sorry sir I was only informed of this today"
"I see, well in future be mindful that you are not only wasting your time but others as well"
"Of course sir"
She bowed and gritted her teeth. This man was pushing his luck, she didn't care if he was the president,
he has no right to talk to people like this.
"Pfft..."
The man stifled a laugh.
She looked up and noticed he was shaking.
"Ahh Lucy you never change"
He shook his head; turned the desk light and removed his hat and sunglasses.
"Loke!"
Lucy was taken aback. The current president of Regulus was Loke.
Loke, that snivelling kid she had to tutor before.
She also noticed that he wasn't actually stroking just any other cat.
It was a lion cub.
"So Lucy-sensei how have you been?"
He smiled and held out his hand and the Lion's paw.
She stood still. Three... Two... One...
"ITSALIONRUNFORYOURLIFE!"
Her feet rumbled along the corridor as she tried to escape.
Confused, the lion escaped Loke's grip and chased after her.
"Regulus come back!"
Loke chased after him and the three ran down the street and caused a commotion.
Lucy was trapped, she ended up stuck between a lion and a shady bar.
"Help me! Anyone!"
She screamed and tried to intimidate the lion but with eah shriek he slinked closer
and closer until...
Gray appeared out of nowhere with a dog and the lion cub ran and turned a corner.
"Lucy are you alright?"
Gray held her close and her heart had been beating erratically.
She took a few deep breaths and soon her heat was in sync with his.
"Thanks Gray I-"
"Gray-saaaama~"
Juvia came around the corner followed by Loke and the lion
"Oh god it's back!"
The lion jumped out of Loke's hands and ran towards her
She flinched and waited for it to pounce but it didn't come.
She opened her eyes to see it rubbing against her as it purred.
"This is what I was trying to tell you Lucy,"
"Gray-sama~ I missed you"
"It's not a lion, it's an unusually big cat"
She lloked closer and noticed that this 'Lion cub' was actually just a very large cat.
Just like he said.
"Oh it's Fluffy!"
She remembered him, she and Loke rescued from that river near his home.
"His name's actually Regulus"
"How does he remember me, cats don't have good memories"
"You left one of your shirt and now he sleeps on its"
"Damn he has a good sense of smell"
"Hey Lucy I'm still here you know"
"I'm here as well Gray-sama"
But no-one cared.
Catching up with people in an alley is not recomended.
