Chapter 5: The Beast
Levy woke up next morning and began her usual routine. Eat breakfast, get dressed, feed the animals, check to see if any of her father's experiments had any changes and head to town. But this morning was going to be different. Outside her home were Laxus and his friends. Laxus was not in his usual clothes. Instead, he was wearing a suit and tie, his hair in its usual fashion and he was holding a bouquet of flowers.
"Remember the plan guys?" he asked.
"Of course." replied EverGreen "First, you go in and convince her why she should be your wife."
"Then," added Bixlow while sticking out his tongue "she says yes, you both come out of her home, we shoot out the fireworks and the babies sing..."
"Congratulations! Congratulations!" the babies screamed.
"Are you sure this is even going to work?" asked Freed.
"Positive." said a highly confident Laxus.
"By the way," Freed asked "where did you get those flowers from? The town's flower shop is closed on the weekends."
"Ah there was a fresh bunch in the graveyard so I took those from there." replied Laxus.
Laxus then proceeded to Levy's door and knocked on it. Levy answered it surprised to see it was Laxus.
"Hello Levy." he said with a smirk "Mind if I come in?"
"Uh. Hi Laxus." began Levy. But before she could give him an answer about letting him in, Laxus invited himself in. Oh yeah sure you can waltz in here without my permission. Levy thought to herself sarcastically I don't mind. Laxus made his way into Levy's living room and gave her the bouquet of flowers.
"These are for you, beautiful." He told her. Levy took one look at the flowers and knew right away where they came from. "You know why I'm here right?"
"Because you want to apologize for throwing my book into the street yesterday?" she asked.
"No!" Laxus said with a chuckle "To convince you on why you should be my wife! Just imagine it!"
He then sat down on the couch, legs spread out and removed his feet from his shoes the scent of his bare feet make Levy want to throw up. He then began his speech. "You and me, wedding bells all over the town; celebrating our marriage. Then we celebrate the rest of our lives by me coming home every night with new dragons I slayed and you cleaning and gutting it while our sons-"
"Sons?" Levy interrupted.
"Eight of them!" Laxus exclaimed "All look just like me! Anyway, all the boys playing by the fire waiting for dinner to be ready while I relax by the fire and take a nice little nap." From what he had planned out, to Levy; this sounded more like a living hell than paradise. "So, what do you say? You'll be my bride?" Levy at that moment began to back away and Laxus grew closer and closer to her.
"L-Laxus," she said uncomfortably "I-I don't know what to say, I'm speechless."
"Say you will be my wife, and all our dreams can come true." he replied. Levy did her best to look for a way out of this until she saw something; the front door was still open.
"I think it's really nice you feel this way about Me." she told Laxus while trying to avoid his kiss. "But, I DON'T THINK YOU'RE FOR ME! Solid Script: Battering-ram!" Levy snuck away from Laxus and casted her spell and before they knew it, the word "BATTERINGRAM" appearing out of thin air and knocked Laxus straight in the gut, kicking him swiftly out of the house. At that moment, the Fire Works shot into the air spelling out:
"LEVY
LAXUS
FOREVER!"
Bixlow's babies began to sing "Congratulations! Congratulations!" Freed walked over to his best friend to congratulate him when he noticed something missing.
"Hey, where's Levy?" he asked.
"AND TAKE YOUR STINKING GRAVE FLOWERS TOO!" Levy screamed. She threw the flowers out of the house and slammed her door shut.
Laxus began to lift himself up and he clenched the grass on the ground.
"She will be my wife." He growled "Whether she likes it or not!"
Meanwhile with Makarov, he was on his way to the Magic Council when he noticed the path to the town The Magic Council resides in was blocked for construction. So he made the decision to take the next road. As time began to pass, it began to rain. To get out of the rain, Makarov searched for shelter. When he was about to lose hope, he spotted a castle. A dark stoned building that had vines growing on the outside, it looked like it was not cared for in a very long time. He ran to the door and knocked on it, but; for some odd reason, the door opened by itself.
"Hello?" Makarov asked "Is anyone home?"
"Please come in!" said a voice. Makarov looked around the large Main Hall and then looked down to find a blue teapot. Makarov was surprised, but figured it was running on some type of magic.
"Have a seat in front of the fire! My name is Juvia, make yourself at home!" said the teapot named Juvia. She hopped her way to the fireplace which had no fire. Makarov followed close by.
"Natsu! Get a fire started, Happy, come over here! Carla! Dust the chair! We have a guest!" hollered Juvia.
"A guest?" questioned a black clock "Is it even ok?"
"My goodness Gray!" screamed a feather duster named Carla "You're in front of a guest and you're without your panels!"
The mantle clock named Gray looked down and noticed his clock panels were missing.
"Oh Crap! Not again!" he screamed. Juvia the Teapot was enjoying this to the point her eyes turned into hearts. A candle labra who has pink candles with flames on the tips began to light the fireplace and added the wood to the flames. At that moment, when no one was looking; he started to eat some of the flames. Gray walked behind the candle labra and smacked him in the back of the neck.
"Knock it off Natsu!" said Gray "The man needs this more than you do."
"Come on man!" said the one called Natsu "I haven't had flames in a week!"
Makarov at that moment sat down at the big comfy chair near the fire and Juvia poured tea into a blue teacup that looked like it had whiskers and the handle was a tail.
"Hi sir!" said the tea cup "I'm Happy! Nice to meet you!" Makarov chuckled seeing the cute little tea cup.
"My how adorable you are." he told Happy. He took a few sips from the tea cup until the fire suddenly went out. What's going on? Makarov asked himself.
"Crap!" Natsu screamed "The Mater is coming!"
"You have to hide!" screamed Gray "Juvia, Carla; get him to a place where The Master can't find him! Natsu and I will distract him!" Juvia and Carla did what Gray ordered and hid Makarov in the nearest broom closet.
"What's going on around here?" Makarov whispered.
"It's The Master of this castle." Juvia whispered back "He doesn't like guests. He'll flip if he finds you." Outside, footsteps could be heard and a gruff voice to match it.
"What the hell is all of this?!" screamed the voice "I heard a voice that is not of this castle and now I find my servants cleaning up like nothing happened!"
"Nothing DID happen!" Natsu replied "We just had a little break from work is-"
"Wait." said the gruff voice "I smell him." Makarov froze where he was. He needed to get out, fast! But there was nowhere in the room he could escape. "There he is! Iron Dragon's Roar!" A huge gust of wind mixed with scraps of metal hit the door and broke it down. Makarov was horrified. The Master was a horrifying beast.
"Well what do we have here?" said the beast with a toothy grin "Come to look at the horrible beast have you?"
"N-no!" stuttered Makarov "I-I swear, I just needed a place to be sheltered from the rain!"
"Well tough crap!" screamed the beast "You trespassed on my property. And as of now, you're my prisoner." The Beast picked the old man up by the back collar of his shirt and put Magic Sealing Cuffs on the old man. He then threw him into a rotting prison cell.
"Looks like you're going to be here awhile." smirked the beast "Gi hi hi hi hi sleep tight."
Back with Levy, she was cleaning the house when the thoughts Laxus put in her head began to overwhelm her. Me? A wife to him? Never! She thought He's not for me. I'm better off without him. As she continued to think she suddenly heard a horse's whinny. Thinking her father returned, Levy ran outside only to find her father's horse. The horse looked completely terrified.
"Where's father?" she began to ask it. If the horse could speak, it would tell her how her father went to a castle for shelter and he witnessed how the beast of the castle took her father as his prisoner for intruding. But all he could do was whinny and point Levy to the direction her father went down when he left. Taking the sign, Levy ran inside and grabbed the first aid kit and her cloak. She was going after her dad.
