I felt like I was neglecting certain characters yet I had no reason to talk about them before. I am sorry for the delay but thing haven't been easy. I had already typed this chapter yesterday but I couldn't upload it till today sorry I mean it. Things like this happen I know it and it was not a nice time that day but I think you have ti read ahead to know just what I am talking about.
*Lucy*
"We were hopeing; well I was hoping if you could be my maid of honor?" asks Erza in one of her fits of shyness. It is strange to know such thing would cause her to alter this much, but when it concerned Jellal she was normally a bit different than usual. The years have been good with Erza she was a bit taller with a slim shape, were you would find almost no fat at all. Then again Erza was always a beautiful woman. Her scarlet hair nearly touching the ground even with a high ponytail she was wearing. I hug her as tight as I possibly can.
"I'd love to!"
"There is something I was wondering about? I found a bra on the doorknob to the infirmary it seemed a bit strange, but I am sure it seems to be your size" Please no how could I have forgotten about that. I feel the heat gathering in my face.
"I tend to sleep without a bra I must have forgotten were I left it!" I say it so fast, I feel myself giggle as the words leave my lips. She stares at me
"Of course because that is the perfect place to leave the bra, I think the doorknob is the only place everyone will be able to see it. Next time take care of the kid first, at least make sure he makes it home safe" My face is thousand shades of red by now. At least it doesn't look like she is going to kill me!
"Sorry….!" I mouth the word but my voice doesn't follow my lips. I leave for the infirmary to pick u the long discarded bra still hanging from the doorknob!
*an hour later*
"Ok everyone gather around! Erza is finally getting married and we have to set up things so that the wedding can take place in less than a month!" shouted Mira her voice echoing thought the guild hall. A chain of chatter broke though the guild as the words spoken were almost the same as they were spoken though each pair of lips.
"One month!"
"Not enough time"
"Erza finally"
"Erza is man!"
"Ok we have to get ready we already have Erza's dress, I already arranged things in the temple of the sun, and moon. We still have a lot of work to do!" Her voice showed a strange sense of determination, and enough courage to tell us all that this could be done! She got a magic marker and started setting up jobs for everyone, and at the pace she was showing we could probably get the preparative done in two, or three weeks.
The next few weeks I spent time always being guarded by someone even if I was with Jr, and Rose in the infirmary the girl was desperately clinging to the thread of life. Her skin was pale white, her breathing shallow; she didn't even try to talk anymore. She couldn't walk by herself anymore, and even when Wendy was trying her best to help it was just not enough. Her hair was turning into dust as her skin lost color from one bay to another. It was as if she was turning into dust herself. At times she would still show her attitude by giving of a glare when we tried to help her, but it would soon crumble as she fell to the ground unable maintain balance.
Jr would always keep by her side no matter how much we tried as we didn't want him to her in that state. He was her only smile and the only times she kept her attitude to the maximum as if trying to make him see that she was going to be alright, trying to keep his hopes up. It was astounding to see the transformation from a second to another as he crossed the door. When he came into the room she looked as if she hadn't given up already.
I only know that if that girl were to die in front of him I could never forgive myself.
*Adeline*
Another knife plunged into my skin. My magic couldn't keep up with the injuries already. I am dying. Is that what she meant? Do I have to die to see my family again? I can't feel my body anymore just the cold numbness in the skin every time a new injury is formed. I have felt so much I can no longer feel anything at all. Not one he outside, not on the inside. I feel the emptiness. Finally he pronounces the words again.
"Adeline sweet Adeline what is it that you want the most?" the purple dust enters though the cuts on my arms burning my skin yet my throat so dry that only an agonizing shriek escapes my lips. I struggle to pronounce each word yet I cannot hold them back.
"I-I wi-sh I wish to kill…" I can practically smell of the disgusting smile on his coward lips yet I cannot contain the word and let my mouth speak them "to kill myself."I feel my consciousness banish I am finally dying then I hear his words resonating on my ear like the daggers on chest.
"Close the cuts… Make sure you burn them close." He leaves the torture chamber as my keeper grabs on to a torch, leaving it for what seems like an eternity on my open wounds. The feeling of my burning flesh keeps me from unconsciousness, while at the same time drives me back into the dark halls of my nightmares.
I hope that I can give you double updates today, if we are lucky maybe even three chapters I feel like I ow you one from yesterday.
