Chapter Four
"I really think he's a giant mouse," Levy insisted while we were walking on the way to her home.
It was already sunset, and Fairy Hill's boarding house has a rule that they must be home before the sun completely sets. Yes, it's an all girl's boarding house; but we have our own ways on how we'll me able to get in; no worries.
"Ugh... how many times... do I have to tell you that he is not?" snapped Gajeel. "For the last time, Pantherlily is a cat! My cat! An exceed to be exact! Exceeds are assistants of demons like me - demons who grant human's wishes!"
"I thought you're the only one who can grant wishes!"
"Nope, there's pretty plenty of us, actually," said my master. "We're scattered all over the world in different places."
"So it's really true? About you being cursed and how you turned out like this?"
"I've been telling you already, most rumors or tales that are scattered about in this world contains at least a bit of truth in them." he sighed. "And well, it's not really cursed, but, I guess you can put it that way. Enough with the talk about me."
Master doesn't really want to talk about what really happened on how and why he turned out to be like this. Right now he's getting pretty annoyed by this girl; though he can't be too rude to her, it's against our rules to be rude to the humans we've made a pact with.

After that, we walked silently for some minutes until we reached the of Fairy Hill's front entrance.
"Um... Boys aren't allowed inside..." the blue-haired mage said softly.
"Heh, do you really think that we'd fancy using the front door to get in?" he grinned. "Just go in your room already and we'll catch up. Then tell us about your first wish so that we can get this over with already."
She nods and goes inside the building; then the black mists started to appear and surround both of us. Those black mists are pretty much our means of teleportation to go anywhere, anytime.

Chapter Five
Levy hasn't even been on her room for two minutes when we arrived.
"O-Oh... you're here." she said, half surprised, half expecting us.
"So what're the things you're wishin' for?" master asked, wanting to get on with the wish-making and wish-granting to be done already, as he usually does.
She sighed, sat on a small chair in front of her round mirror, and looked at herself.
"You know... There's this girl in the mirror...
There's a story in her eyes, sadness and loneliness...
She can't hide no matter how hard she tries... her doubts killing her inside...
Every night she cries; wishing she never existed in the first place...
or that she can do something to change her stupid, ugly life right now...
She has no one to help her; people at school bully her; most only wants her near because of her brains... and nothing else.
They just see her as a tool, something to approach whenever they need something; and then throw away after they're done with it.
All she really wants is to be known as someone...
...to be someone."
I notice her eyes getting teary, but she does a good job holding her tears back this tie; she seems very determined to have her wish...
"And that girl... is me. I want revenge."
Just the same as the other humans...
"I want to be beautiful..."
But she already is; she just doesn't see it; but I can, just beneath those glasses of hers, beauty lies within.
"I want to be someone as beautiful as them... No, more beautiful that them."
"I want to be confident enough... to be able to defend myself from them."
Well, yes, she needs confidence, but...
"I also want power... for my revenge."
She already is a mage, with solid script magic; what more does she want?
"I want to be someone stronger, beautiful, confident, and great enough for my revenge."
I can feel strong feelings of greed, selfishness, anger, and at the same time, sadness - around her.
"I wish I can take my revenge on them; watching them fall and regret bullying me, belittling me, and doing bad things to me!"
She made a smirk upon saying that; and only then that I've noticed that the weak, sad, depressed, crying Levy I used to watch suddenly just disappeared and got lost somewhere while she was talking earlier.
...
...
...
She seemed... different right now.
Blinded by power, greed, and selfishness just as the other humans were.
... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ...
"So that's just all for your first wish? To be 'beautiful', stronger, confident to be able to get your revenge?" master grinned. "Easy. You should've just gotten into telling it straight to me rather than telling me some kind of story before you said your wish, too, you know."
Levy just simply nods and says nothing.
And at this part I knew that she was just like everyone else. she was the same with those humans. Just a selfish, greedy being, who wants nothing but to get revenge and power. Nothing else but getting back on those who wronged them and not realizing they're just being like them by doing so.
Knew, I said. Not know. I thought I really knew how she was; which was wrong. Well, I didn't know that I was wrong until she made her second wish, anyway.
... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ...
Of course, I can't tell you about what her second wish... or last wish was... not yet. I'll have to tell you the things that happened before those first.

Sorry, again... you know why I need to cut this part... As soon as I've finished my homeworks a little while ago, I started working on this story... and unfortunately I wasn't able to finish the other chapters again. It's pretty late here now, so... I'll continue this again tomorrow... I pwomise by tomorrow I'll finish the whole story (since it's Friday tomorrow, I can stay up late and finish this)...
What do you think of the story so far~? :3
Feel free to review x3
