Chapter 31- I promise
Lisanna, Levy, Freed and Warren reached the end of the corridor. Lisanna transformed back to human form and Warren placed two fingers to his temple, he heard:
The four mages were faced with a spiral stair case with stairs leading both up and down.
"Levy and I will go down while Freed and Warren go up," suggested Lisanna,
"No," protested Freed,
"There could be more floors above us, if so, we need to cover them all. Warren, ask Jellal if he has come across a spiral stair case and if he knows how many floors there are. If he says yes, assuming that the castle has a symmetrical plan we can decide how we separate." explained Levy,
"Exactly Levy, and if we can't cover enough floors Max, Laki, Wendy and Romeo shouldn't be too far behind us if all goes to plan." said Freed,
"I'll take the first floor, I don't want to waste any time, we'll meet again sometime depending on the information Jellal gives us." said Lisanna,
"I understand. But, Lisanna?" asked Freed,
"Mmm?"
"Be careful." Freed said,
"Sorry Warren, I don't know any more of the layout than you do." broadcasted Jellal in reply,
Lisanna nodded and began to descending down the spiral staircase alone. She was back owl form, because she couldn't see in the darkness. When Lisanna reached the bottom she heard voices, she took a battle stance waiting for what could possibly come around the corner. But the voice inside her head told her not to fight. But it wasn't just a voice…. It was a memory?…
'"Lisanna?" said Natsu,
Lisanna was lying in bed next to a warm fire dragon slayer, and the love of her life, Natsu Dragneel. He was shirtless; one hand gently rested on his toned abs. Lisanna wasn't wearing anything, unless you can the thin tan coloured bed sheet. She had an amazing night, and she knew she loved him with all her heart and that hopefully it would never change. Even though Natsu snored in his sleep, it was nice to have him there with his arms around her. Lisanna removed her head from resting on his chest and made herself eye level to him. Lisanna smiled,
"Yes Natsu?" she replied,
Natsu felt one leg wrap around him as she positioned herself over him. Natsu couldn't comprehend how his Lisanna could do such an incredibly sexy thing and still wear such an innocent face at the same time. Natsu's cheeks turned a little pink and Lisanna giggled a little bit.
"Promise me that you'll never leave me again," said Natsu staring into her mesmerizing brilliant blue eyes,
Lisanna didn't directly answer, but she leaned in and kissed him tenderly. His lips were always so soft and she remembered their first kiss… She smirked remembering how he was so new to being in love. He was shy at first, but now Natsu seemed slightly more needy, like he had just discovered lust. Evidence may have been when he nibbled the her bottom lip gently? Lisanna's fingers ran through his salmon pink hair, his hands rested on her waist. Even more evidence was when he tenderly bit her top lip making her moan softly in pleasure? Natsu smirked without disconnecting his lips. But maybe, the neediness was when he motioned for her to open her mouth and let his tongues slip in and tangle with hers. Of course Lisanna complied. Feeling his tongue explore her mouth and her tongue interacting with his was heavenly, but she couldn't help but think, it was only yesterday that I initiated our first kiss and Natsu was asking me what to do… but here and now, it seems oh so different and confident… Lisanna broke away and Natsu's face looked a little disappointed.
"I promise Natsu." said Lisanna pecking his lips,
"And promise me that you will never do anything reckless while I'm not there to protect you," he said pulling her closer to him,
"I promise." she said moving her hands down to the waist band of his boxers sneakily,
"Lisanna I'm serious!" he whined,
"I know and so am I! Don't get all 'I feel violated' on me now!" she said mocking Natsu,
"Fine but first can you promise me one last thing. Don't get involved in a fight without me unless you have to." he said,
"I will try to keep that promise." said Lisanna smiling gently,
Natsu pulled her even closer to him and rolled over so he was on top. He let out an adorable boyish giggle seeing her red face.
"NAAAAAAATSUUU!" Came a squeaky voice from the window,
Natsu and Lisanna both turned their heads to see happy tapping on the window,
"QUIT THE SNOGGING AND HURRY UP! WE GOTTA GET TO THE GUILD BEFORE THE GREAT ERZA KILLS US!" Happy cried,
"Just give us half an hour Happy!" yelled back Natsu burying his face in Lisanna's neck kissing her exposed skin lustfully,
"EEEEEWWWWWW! AAAHHHHH! MY EYES!" screamed Happy flying around in circles outside the window.'
And then Lisanna snapped back into reality, the moral to that flashback still engraved into her mind. '"Don't get involved in a fight without me unless you have to."' Natsu's voice echoed into her mind. Lisanna still kept her battle stance though, 'Lisanna please…' said Natsu's voice in her head. Lisanna placed a hand over her stomach, she sighed and desperately looked around looking for a place to hide, she couldn't see anywhere but she heard the footsteps approaching. Nirvana turned the corner and faced the stairs. She sighed,
"Ugh. Stairs."
And then Nirvana was gone.
In a tiny puddle on the floor, a small white and blue fish gasped for air through her gills. As soon as Nirvana was gone Lisanna retransformed into her human form. She breathed heavily and panted, inhaling as much air as possible. After wiping her forehead in belief she contacted Warren.
"This is Lisanna. I just saw Nirvana on the bottom floor of the left tunnel. I assume she has the ability to teleport, as she just disappeared from in front of me."
Lisanna heard another voice approaching, you've got to be kidding me! Lisanna rolled her eyes transforming back into the dying fish in the puddle that was barely a puddle. The Spirit witch (Naturi) walked out of the room also. Lisanna wanted to giggle a bit at their identical reactions the stairs but she literally couldn't. Lisanna became human again and panted… Seriously, if one more person comes out that door… Lisanna couldn't understand why she hadn't used her teleporting magic in their previous battle with Cana though, but all that mattered right now was reporting it. After relaying the information of the Spirit Witch, Lisanna turned the corner and stood before a door. She pressed her ear up to the door, she couldn't hear anything. She opened the door cautiously, but with no one jumping out at her, she walked out into the room. It was dark and had little moonlight; she turned on her heel and looked at the wall in front of her, there was another wall with another door. Lisanna turned on her heel to face the wall in which she over-looked upon her entering into the room.
"LUCY!" Lisanna stumbled over to Lucy and lifted her drooping head, Lisanna's hands on her cheeks.
"Lucy, Lucy please wake up!" She sobbed tapping her cheeks gently.
Lisanna ran back and took over into half bird form. Taking a run up, she charged toward Lucy getting some air and she struck her claws against the chains that bound Lucy to the wall. She fell from the wall and Lisanna caught Lucy in her arms.
*Creek* Lisanna snapped her head to the side to see the snow mage walking out with Cana's arm around her holding her up. Cana looked at Lisanna with her head on a tilt,
"Lisanna?!"
And that's when Lisanna heard it.
"Everyone, the main target is Nirvana. She hasn't yet released her true power yet, but destroying her will release everyone who is being affected by Nirvana. She has influenced many of her own guild members as well as Erza. Some of Silence are siding with us. Natsu is alive."
Lisanna's eyes lit up and widened. Natsu is alive! Her heart felt warmer and lifted the weight of worry off her shoulders, she knew there was hope. Lisanna also reported to Warren,
"Everyone, it's Lisanna, Lucy and Cana are alive. Snowflake is one of the Silence members allying with us."
Lisanna began to feel slightly faint. Maybe using magic while pregnant was starting to take its toll?
Okay, so I just remembered, Natsu doesn't have a bed he has a hammock. In my story, Natsu has a bed. Maybe he wanted to buy one because Lucy's is f***ing comfortable! Maybe he predicted he was going to get laid?! POSSIBILITIES ARE ENDLESS. Maybe. Anyways hope you enjoyed the cute little NaLi…. Please review how you think the pairings should end up. StiLu or NaLu or whatever other pairings you can come up with. I was thinking if no StiLu, StiYu… but then maybe RoYu. I am a NaLu fan in all honesty, StiLu was actually an accident I just went with that I thought was pretty cute. (Kawaii!). I will not be writing any GrayLi, it was simply a plot twist. Also I'm pretty sure when Lisanna found out she was pregnant she'd only slept with Natsu and Gray in the last couple of days… I awkwardly just realised this, so I have decided that mages get symptoms awfully quick or something… I tried to do my research I really did!
Sorry that updates have become less and less frequent. I am also writing other Fanfictions at the same time, but worry not, I won't just discontinue my story.
So thanks for reading!
Reviews appreciated and motivational!
Cheers!
