EDITED 9/30/13: Hey there people it is me with the edited version. This will all be new and improved and such. This fic is betaed by kittyklaws13. I would like to say this is the unbetaed version.
Recap:
Grey also becomes determined not to see his closest friend die on his watch. "I can try and get him so he won't be in any more danger and to where we can carry him to town." He tells me with a hint of hope and a little despair at the chance of what may happen if we fail.
"What can I do to help?"
Grey nods. "Ok first off we need to cut off his shirt to see the excendt of damage and how we can tamerally patch it up till we get to the local hospital." he tells me as he runs over a little to left grabbing a medical bag that was in the guild hall. Grey comes back over to me and reaches into the pack he found to grab a pair of medical scissors*.
"Lucy, could you lift up his shirt slightly at the bottom to I can get a good cutting start point." Grey tells me holding his scissors up.
"Yeah." I grab the bottom of Natsu's shirt barely regerstion on wet feeling seeping though my fingers as Grey makes the first cut. We work nearly silently only speaking when giving commands while listening to Natsu's raged but steady breathing. 'At lets he's breathing.' DON'T THINK LIKE THAT.' I mentally scolded myself.
After what seemed like hours we managed to get the shirt off and we were stunned for a moment of the severalty of the wound. There was a whole about the size of a quarter going though and though his adamon. Grey manages to shake out of his supper first and grabs the bandages. "Lucy I need you to hold Natsu up a little high so I can get the bandages all the way around him to slow down the bleeding."
"ok." I lift Natsu a little higher off my lap getting a pained hiss from the one being moved. "sorry." I whisper to him as I set him back down. He just smiled back at me.
Grey leaned back with a sigh. "He should be banged up enough till we can get him the hospital, speaking of that I hope Ezra made it to the town and told them about the situation." Grey tells me with relief in his voice and a soft smile. I sit up a little straighter and shot a surprised look at Grey. 'I didn't even notice that Ezra left. I hope that everything turns out ok.'
I hear as though someone is trying to cough their lungs out. I look down and see that Natsu started to cough with more force and harsher than before. I sit him up again to open up the air way once more and whisper nothings and empty promises to him trying to be ignorant of the wet blood seeping into my clothes right at my shoulder.
I feel a small tug on my shirt and look down at Natsu with tears glissading threaten to fall. "Lu-luce?" he whispers still breathless.
"Y-yes?" I stutter nearly as breathless looking at that heart breaking expression.
"I-I'm sc-scar-ed." Natsu says as though he is a small child staying in the dark. I have never heard him admit that he was afraid even when the situation seems truly hopeless. "I-I do-don't wa-want to-to die." He pulls his head up to look at me with a single tear falling down his slightly bloody cheek. As more tears start to fall he reduces silence. Even Grey is shock to see his rival like this.
I grab his head and hug it to my shoulder and almost start crying with him. "Shush Natsu everything will be fine your to stubborn to die. Even if you do I will go to the afterlife and drag you back myself." I say while wiping to tears away. He shows his signature grin and stats to weakly chuckle.
Natsu looks down at happy still on his chest. "Sc-scary lu-lucy r-right ha-happy?" still stuttering but with a stronger than before laugh. I smile even though the joke is a little annoying. 'Same old Natsu can make a joke anywhere.'
"Aye" happy now full blow laughing agreed.
Now I go a little red. "Shut up neko you too baka." I tell them with my usual playful anger.
Natsu smiles the largest and happiest I have ever seen. "Wh-who a-are you ca-calling a ba-baka weirdo." Natsu comes back laughing as hard as a can.
I glare at him trying not to laugh. "Don't call me a weirdo," I tell him like all the other times we have gotten in to this argument.
"We-well y-you a-are one." Natsu states with his eyes falling shut. 'That's not good we have to keep him awake.'
"NATSU!" we all yell simultaneously as he actually entered into the world of unconscious. Trying to snap him awake and in fear for the life of our friend. Are attempts are unsuccessful at best.
I look at Grey with a wilded glimmer in my eye. "Grey help me carry him into town were not that far from town. We need to get him to a healer now!' I steady myself over the shock and start to try and carry him. 'He will make it.'
"Right." He stands up out of the shock. As he picks up Natsu like he could disappear at any moment. 'Which he just might. No he won't. I won't let him.' I become infested with determination that is even stronger than ever before.
"Ready?" I got a nod and a look of determination to rival my own. "Then let's go and save Natsu like he has saved us many times." We run out of the cursed guild hall at speeds that would make jet green with envy full of hope for our friend.
We run to the town in silence my mind wonders. 'I hope he makes it. NO DON'T THINK LIKE THAT. He will make it. He will. He's Natsu for crying out load. He is the most stubborn person alive on the entire planet.' My train of thought is broken when happy speaks. "Lucy?" he asks with fear laced in his voice. "Will Natsu make it? He won't die right? I don't want him to. No one will." He starts to cry at the end of this.
Still running to reach out to happy and hold him. "Don't worry happy you know how stubborn Natsu is. It will take more than this to kill him." I also reassure myself with this.
"Lucy we're here." Grey calls only a few meters in front of us with what sounded like a mixture of pure joy and relief. I see the city as a beacon of hope for everyone. These are my thoughts as we pass though the glorious city entrance.
A/N: hey it's me again I know I ended it with a cliff hanger and all, but don't worry I will be here next week. Goodbye my subordinates and have a good next week.
