-Let there be midnight

ME NO OWN FAIRY TAIL!

Panicked Dragon

Team Natsu stood around the sleeping Salamander silently. Lucy and Erza were sitting in a chair on his right while Gray leaned against the wall facing the bed and Happy sat down on the other side of him. Everyone looked glum as they waited for Natsu to awaken, the tension in the air will only be broken by the flutter of Natsu's eyes. Long moments of silence crept past, the ticking of the clock echoing in the room as Happy looked up at Lucy and Erza.

"Nee, how long has Natsu been asleep?" he asked them. Lucy looked at the clock behind her and back at the blue cat.

"I will say about almost two days." she replied with a slight nod.

"It seems like it has been longer." Gray sighed in frustration to himself as he ran a hand through his raven hair, closing his eyes briefly. Erza looked at the three of her friends before she looked back to Natsu with a soft smile.

"He'll wake up when he knows he's ready." she gently. Lucy smiled as she leaned back in her chair, looking out of the window and at the sunset outside.

"I'm tired of waiting tell he's ready." Gray walked foreword and put his hands on the edge of the bed. "Let's just wake him up already. He doesn't need that much sleep. He's basically a two-year-old on drugs and candy." Erza looked back up at Gray, her smile never disappearing.

"That made me remember the time someone gave him drugged candy and he went into the guild." Lucy and Gray shivered at the memory at seeing their hyper-high friend. It was a weird sight. He was seeing pink birds and blue trees while running around the guild singing 'Twinkle Twinkle Little Star' that had somehow turned into 'Mary Had a Little Lamb.' They shivered once more before shoving the memory to the back of their heads.

After long agonizing minutes, Natsu groaned and he shifted in his sleep. Everyone in the room perked up as they leaned forward expecting for Natsu's eyes to open. A few seconds later, Natsu blinked open his eyes as he blearily looked around the room. Once his vision cleared, he sat up on the bed looking at Gray, Erza, Lucy, and Happy with a confused expression clear on his face.

"Natsu," Lucy breathed silently, barely detectible by human ears, but Natsu heard it clear as day. He turned to Lucy with a tilt of his head.

"Natsu?" he asked her with furrowed eyebrows. Lucy jumped up in surprised as if she didn't expect him to hear her.

"Uh…" she stammered until she finally found the words to say. "That's your name! Natsu!" Lucy said cheerfully. Natsu looked down at his lap muttering the name over and over as if to test out it on his lips.

"Yes, Natsu, and you know what else?" Erza said, gaining his attention as he looked up at her. "We are your friends!" She smiled at him kindly.

"Where am I?" he asked her, looking around once more.

"You're in the infirmary at the guild." Gray said trying to hide his relief at seeing that Natsu was fine. He noticed Natsu's confusion and mentally cursed at himself for not explaining anything more than, 'the infirmary at the guild.' "Fairy Tail, it's our guild. You're also a part of it." he explained. Natsu slowly nodded as his eyes went unfocused and he started to stare at the end of his bed silently.

"Natsu?" Happy asked, hoping to gain his best friend's attention. Natsu said nothing as if he hadn't heard the cat at all. "Nee, Natsu!" Happy said louder hoping that this time Natsu had heard him. Natsu didn't answer yet again making his friends worry.

Natsu's Mind

"Igneel!" a small child's voice called. Natsu tried his hardest to hear the voice, but it only got farther and farther away from him. He tried to run after it, but it seemed that he couldn't move a step. He was locked in place.

"Natsu!" Another voice called, different from the other, but it too reseeded back into nothingness. More voice conjoined together, making Natsu head ach in pain as he fell to his knees, grabbing his head as he held onto his pink locks as if to pull them out. He squeezed his eyes shut as tears from pain formed in the corners as the voices got louder and louder, making his breath hitch.
"Fairy Tail?"

"Natsu Dragneel!"

"Happy!"

"Hi, I'm Lucy!"

"Welcome to Fairy Tail!"

"Igneel! Where are you?!"

"Gray! Put some clothes on you stripper!"

"Stop…!" Natsu muttered as the voices got even louder. "Stop…!" His voice was shaking as he shook his head as if to rid of the voices that plagued his mind. "Please…" he whimpered out pitifully. "Make it stop… make it go away! Please…"

"Natsu!" This voice seemed to be louder than the rest as his body started to shake, but not from his doing. "Natsu snap out of it!" It called out again. Confused, Natsu slowly opened his eyes.

"Natsu!" Lucy called from above him as she tried to shake him 'awake'. Natsu blinked his charcoal eyes at her in confusion as she sat down again, concern etched in both hers and everyone else's in the room eyes.

"Are you alright Natsu?" Erza asked as she sat perched on the edge of her chair. Natsu looked at her confused. What just happened? He knew something just happened, but he couldn't remember it anymore…. This was weird and annoying! Why can't he remember what just happened just a minute ago? "Natsu?" Erza asked, jerking him away from his thoughts. Natsu looked up at her with wide charcoal eyes.

"Huh? Sorry…" he mumbled slightly.

"I said, are you alright?" she repeated, concern more evident in her voice. Natsu nodded, not too sure of himself.

"Yeah…" he trailed off. "I-I don't remember what just happened… All I could remember was a shooting pain in my head but I don't know what caused it." He looked up at them, hoping they could tell him what just happened. The room went silent for a little as a few glances were shared with one another, making Natsu even more confused.

"Lucy," Erza started. "Go fetch Mira." Lucy nodded as she got up and left the room in search for the white headed barmaid. For some strange reason, Natsu's heart pounded in his chest in fear, but he didn't know why. He felt panic start to overwhelm him, confusing him all the more. The others didn't seem to notice his shorter and faster breaths as they were too occupied with their own thoughts to realize what was happening to the pink haired Dragon Slayer.

After a few moments(long agonizing moments for Natsu), Lucy entered the room once more with a white haired girl behind her that had the same worry in her eyes.

"Hello Natsu!" The white haired girl cheered as she hid her worry behind a cheerful smile. "I'm Mirajane, but you can just call me Mira!" She walked over to him only to make his heart pound faster. He started to slowly crawl to the farthest edge on the bed away from Mira, making her smile turn into a frown. "Natsu?"

"D-don't come closer!"
