(Gray's POV)
I feel so weak right now. I can't move my body and all I see is darkness. I can't speak to call to anyone. All I can do is hear what is going on and think. I can hear a heart monitor beeping in the distance; its rhythm was very slow but was still beeping. I just don't know if it's mine or if it's Natsu's. I hope it's not Natsu's heartbeat because that would mean that Laxus got to Natsu and I was unable to help him. I felt something wet in the air so I know I must be starting to cry. I tried to speak, but it was very hard. I opened my mouth, but the words failed to come out. My breathing was heavy and my lips would quiver "N-Na-Nats-u." I said barely.
(Natsu's POV)
Please Gray, you need to be ok. A doctor walked over to me and sat down in the chair next to me.
"Gray should be fine for now. His heart rate has started to increase and he has talked but it was only one word. So, he is making progress." He explained. I didn't look at him; I just kept my head down. My face did brighten knowing that Gray is making progress.
"May I see him please?" I asked. The doctor put a hand on my shoulder and I looked up at him.
"Of course, I'll walk you there." He said. We stood up and he led me to the elevator and we walked into the elevator. He hit the 6 and we started our decent up. I never looked directly at the doctor when we went up. My only thoughts were on Gray. The elevator doors opened and we walked out. The doctor left and I followed after him and he stopped 4 doors down the hall. He walked in and I walked in as well. I had tears in my eyes; Gray looks so fragile right now. I sat down in the chair next to him and grabbed his hand.
"How long do you think he may be in here personally?" I asked sadly.
"He may be here 3 to 5 days maybe longer." He said.
"There goes our honeymoon then." I said. He frowned and walked out of the room. I tightened my grip on Gray's hand and let my tears flow, "Why Laxus? Why are you doing this to us?" I asked.
(Laxus' POV)
I slowly opened my eyes and growled. I didn't expect the fire freak to use my lightning against me. I shakily stood up clenched my chest. "That flame brain is gonna get it when I see him next." I said. I started on my way towards the hospital, knowing Fire brain must have taken him there. I walked slowly so the pain won't be too overwhelming. I walked into the hospital and looked around.
"Are you alright sir?" A man asked. He was a pretty muscular man. I mentally smirked; my plan could work after all.
"I have a stomach pain. I was in a fight and I got hit pretty badly." I said. He nodded and he helped me to a room where he would check me over.
(Gray's POV)
I can feel Natsu's presence. That's a good thing; it makes me feel a lot better since that means Laxus didn't get to him. "Gray, you need to wake up. I need to know you're ok." Natsu said. Natsu! I have to wake up, but I have no energy. You'll have to hang in there Natsu, I can't wake up yet. I felt a worried feeling running through my body. Natsu is really worried about me, I need to wake up.
(Natsu's POV)
Gray just has to wake up. My hand tightened around his hand and my tears threatened to fall. "Please Gray, wake up." I said. His heart beat started to increase and I smiled. "You can hear me." I whispered. I stood up and walked to the door. I decided I'm going to get a post card to send to the guild and tell them what's going on. I reached for the door knob and opened the door and walked out. I walked down the hall and passed by a doctor in the process. He felt familiar but I couldn't recognize him. I saw him going into Gray's room and decided to head back and check to make sure he doesn't do anything. I ran back down the hall and looked in through the window of the door. He was just looking down on him. I found it very odd; he walked over to him and raised a hand. His hand started to fill with lightning. I gasped and opened the door and jumped in the way and he attacked me and I was filled with lightning. "L-Laxus, I won't let you hurt him any more than he already is." I said. He shocked me again and I gasped and fell back against the call nurse button against Gray's bed. He lifted me up and shocked me once again and I screamed in pain. My heart felt like it was going to die. It was slowing down with each shock. The door opened a few doctors ran in.
"What are you doing?" one of them yelled. Laxus let me go and I fell to the floor, the lightning still traveling through my body. One of the doctors picked me up carried me out into the hallway.
"Don't worry; I'm going to help you." She said. My eyes started to droop and I passed out.
