CHAPTER 9
This is the grand finale. Thanks for all the reviews, you guys have been an inspiration.
Deep within the darkness of Lucy's room, a certain dragonslayler stood behind the curtains looking out at the forest. The mansion was still. The quietness made Natsu uneasy. It seemed everyone went to bed early too tired to party tonight. He glanced back at Lucy who was asleep. She rubbed her nose and mewled cutely in her sleep. He ran a hand in his salmon hair. 'Your being paranoid' he told himself slipping back into bed. 'There's no one there.' Although he assured himself he wasn't convinced.
Erza opened her eyes slowly. Gray lay beside her snoring loudly. Suddenly, spit from his mouth shot forward hitting her square in the face. 'Disgusting' she screamed in her head. She was about to hit Gray in his head, when she glanced out the window. From Erza's bedroom, she could see the balcony. As she peered closer, she could see someone climbing in. She shot up off the bed, knocking Gray off her who fell head first on the ground. "Erza Scarlet what the hell is your problem?!" Gray asked icily. "We got to get to the balcony now!" she said racing out the room. As she ran down the corridor, she pounded on Lucy's door. It opened in a flash by Natsu. "Someone's on the balcony whose not one of us." "So I was right. Let's go" Natsu said. "Where are you guys going?!" Lucy called who had reached the door when they ran off.
Just then Gray appeared exhausted. "Gray what's going on?" "Come on, we got to get to the balcony someone got in whose not suppose to be here." As they reached the others, Erza had already reequipped into her amour, while Natsu was already in his fighting stance. The intruder was tall and well built and wearing a black mask. The intruder stood up on top of the railing with Romeo in his hands. "Lemme go!" Romeo struggled and screamed. "Your not going to get away with this!" Natsu said angrily. "Yeah?, just watch me" he laughed and dived backwards into the air. "No!" Erza and Natsu screamed shot off running to railing. There was no one below. They had disappeared in to thin air. "That's impossible!" Erza said backing away from the balcony. Natsu slammed his hands on the railing, head bowed. "No, this can't be…." Natsu murmured in frustration. Gray and Lucy stood too stupefied to say anything.
Levy closed the study's door keeping out Macao's hysterical screaming of him killing someone. It was four in the morning now. The air was tense. Romeo was kidnapped without a trace. So far, no solutions. "What now?" Gray asked breaking the ice. "I don't know but we got to do something" Erza stated. Natsu kept silent. "But why would they want to kidnap Romeo?, I don't get it" Lucy questioned. "I checked the holder type magic books, and there seems to be one solution." Levy explained closing a large black book in her hand. "The fact that our intruder disappeared so fast, means he used magic not of this world. Meaning he isn't of this world." "Fuck I knew this shit would go down." Gray swore. "It seems the person used magic that only Lucy's spirits would use. Guys, the only way to get back Romeo is to cross over to the celestial world (spirit world)."
