I can't say how excited I was after I read the two reviews I got. I WILL DO MY BEST TO CORRECT MY TYPOES! (I thank ThyWordSmith because I didn't know how to spell that word LOL) If necessary, I will go over my English notes to check that everything is right. I actually realized some of my mistakes and I thought (and i'm still thinking) "Could I BE more stupid?" I really hope you enjoy my story and Thank you for taking your time to read it and reviewing as well. I am so happy! :D Seriously, it pushes me to write new stuff and to try and get better at this!
Flashback - 10 minutes before the explosion
"Oi, ice pervert!" Natsu screamed, he was sitting in a stool next to Lucy
"What do you want Flame for brain? Wanna fight?! " Gray was talking to Cana a few feet away.
"As if it made any diference, popsicle. We both know I win " Natsu answered. By now both of them were facing each other with their foreheads touching
" Are you fighting?" A mage with scarlet hair asked
"What are you saying Erza? We are best friends" they both said in unison while patting each others back.
Everyone laughed at the scene, but didnt last long: Erza's cake ended up in the floor because of Gajeel's distraction while talking to Levy
That was when chairs started flying through the guilds and members started punching one another. Erza was kicking Gajeel's butt while Natsu and Gray took advantage of the distraction to start another fight
"Same old Fairy tail" Lucy thought while drinking a strawberry smoothie
"Are you going to stay there or intervine?" Mirajane asked while smiling at the celestial mage
"Like always, I'll stay put and enjoy my drink, but Mira, weren't you supposed to go buy something at the market?" Lucy reminded her friend
"Oh! thanks Lucy! I had forgotten. Can you take care of the bar while I'm gone? I actually wasn't counting on the guys breaking that lamp yesterday since it was attached pretty strongly to the ceiling. I was planning on going this morning before everyone came" she laughed while complaining a bit
"Sure, no problem!" Lucy could understand how it slipped her mind... She didn't expect Mira to keep record of EVERY LITTLE THING Natsu and Gray broke during their fights, she would go nuts!
Lucy stood behind the bar, far from everyone as they were still fighting. She then heard some noises coming from the wall she was leaning on, as well as a hand going through it."I must be going crazy" she thought while shrugging it off. Big Mistake
Lucy was rubbing some dirt off the table with a mop and the guild was still going at it when a blast was heard, coming from the bar
"Lucy!" Natsu cried, before him and the rest of the guild members were hit by the explosion.
Natsu, who was also pushed further back because of the explosion, ate the flames it had caused and took a good look around him. He sighed in relief after he realized no one was gravely injured, just lying on the floor because of the impact, with cuts and bruises.
Unfortunately, that feeling didn't last long. He smelled blood in the air.
Under a pile of rubble, a pale hand with a pink guild mark could be seen
"Lucy!" Natsu went over there, to her, and he felt the others going that direction as well. Natsu started to dig her out of there, just to find a celestial mage full of cuts and bruises. What caught his attention was the wound she had in her stomach: every cut was pretty deep but this wound was 3 inches long and half an inch wide, it looked deep, but it was hard to tell how much.
She opened her eyes to find a terrified Natsu holding her, Happy flying over the dragon slayer's head and the rest of the guild surrounding them.
Natsu then remembered that Wendy was supposed to go on a mission with Carla, she had left in the middle of the fight, so she should still be waiting for the train
"HAPPY! Go get Wendy! NOW!" he screamed in urgency, without taking his eyes off her teammate
"AYE!" Happy left, leaving a frantic and frightened Natsu, a dying Lucy and a shocked Guild behind
He tought of the possibility of Wendy being in the train already, so he came up with a plan B
"Jet! Please get Polyuska" Natsu heard how he practically flew away from the scene
They were left there to wait for a miracle, to wait for their friend's return. Natsu kept on holding to her, begging that the train hadn't arrived to the station, that Wendy could get here in time, that Lucy could hang in there.
Pain shot through Natsu's heart when he realized her heartbeat was getting weaker and really hard to hear even with his dragon slayer hearing
Levy gasped "I can see them!"
Everybody lifted their heads from the pair to catch a glimpse of the horizon and the dragon slayer who was being carried by Carla, flying max speed, with Happy leading the way
Natsu was still holding Lucy in his arms, not even bothering to look up
"Natsu-san!" He heard how the blue haired mage kneeled next to him
"Wendy..." he whispered with tears in his eyes, and the knot still in his throat and stomach " Is she going to be ok?"
"I will do my best natsu-san" she put her hands over Lucy's stomach, while they glowed "The wound in her stomach is really deep" She informed with a dark face and a frown
A couple of minutes passed, and Lucy's face relaxed, the color in her cheeks was back and her heart rate stabilized, as well as her breathing
Natsu felt he could relax
"Her life is not in danger, but I think it would be wise to get Polyuska-san to check on her as well" Wendy let them know
"Jet already went to get her" Erza answered. Up until now, she was petrified, fearing for her friend's life
"What happened here?" Wendy asked
The guild realized that they had been to preocupied to ask themselves that question
"I'd like to know!" Gray broke the silence "But I think it's too much of a coincidence to be attacked while the master is away because of the meeting with the council"
"Gray-sama is brilliant to get to those conclusions!" Juvia said
Natsu was still holding Lucy in his arms, not wanting to let go "I'll..." he whispered
"What did you say Flame-brain?" Gray asked
"I'll make them pay for what they did!" he now screamed
The guild felt a wave of heat coming from Natsu, whose fighting heart was speaking for all of them
"not just you Natsu" Erza said "We will all make them pay for hurting one of our own"
All the guild agreed, filled with a fighting spirit that had replaced their terrified expressions from before. Whoever was it that dared to mess with Fairy Tail, would have to deal with them and their rising anger
