Aww, thank you guys so much for reviewing and following!
Levy stared at the demon with wide eyes, what the hell did he do her? what was happening to her? she didn't feel any different.
"Levy? What's going on?" Rogue asked with concern laced in his voice. Frosch's head popped up in the corner of the screen, his eyebrows lowered in concern as well.
"Frosch is worried about Miss Levy, she doesn't look alright." The little exceed asked having his hands covering his mouth in shock.
Levy didn't really know how to respond, she can't tell them that she made a deal with a demon to become stronger. Levy didn't think they would take that very well, telling her that she was strong enough. She internally rolled her eyes at the thought. Rogue was still waiting for her to answer him, "Uh, nothing's wrong. I'm perfectly fine." The sapphire-haired girl laughed nervously.
The dark-haired man didn't look very convinced when he lifted one eyebrow and tilted his head. "Levy, there is a dark mark on your neck that looks like its moving up to your face. Did you do something?"
She turned her head to the demon following her around, he was just staring at the ceiling; looking bored. Her smacked his arm and questioned him on what to say but he just shrugged, "You tell them whatever you want." She sighed and turned back to Rogue and Frosch. "Like how hot he is." She stared at him with her wide, brown eyes.
Levy mouthed what the fuck, to him. "Levy! Who are you talking to?" at that question, Thymos started laughing out loud. Levy's head just fell in exasperation.
"Uh, no one. I'm just talking to myself. Nothing's wrong, I just learned a new magic, I'm still getting used to it." She waved her hands in front of her, hopefully that worked, it wasn't a lie; per se. She still didn't know if this was a good or bad thing, but she has to deal with it now.
"Okay, just," he paused to look at Frosch and sigh, "just careful. I don't want you to get hurt. You are by yourself out there. I just wanted to call to say Sting and I are going on a mission that might last a month." Levy's face fell, that means that she won't hear from him for a long time. "Don't worry. I'll try to get in touch with you." He smiled softly at the sapphire-haired girl who also smiled.
Then Thymos was a mere inch away from Levy's face, "What the hell are you humans smiling about?" she rolled her eyes and pushed his face away from her.
"Well, I have to go get ready. Be careful training, don't hurt anyone." He chuckled at her pouting face. She tried a new spell she learned and then accidently hit a farmer from across the way. Levy had apologized profusely, telling him it won't ever happen again. The farmer said it was okay after Levy turned his head back to normal. When the blue-haired girl told the shadow dragon slayer he laughed so loud, it scared Sting from his office.
"I won't do that again!" she yelled as he said goodbye and the screen went blank.

Levy stood outside her tent, in the clearing with Thymos. The darkness on her body had gingerly touched her cheek in the last 2 hours. He was sitting on a stomp a few feet away from her, with his legs crossed. She had asked him for help on what to do with this power, but he was just making fun of her.
Levy was standing looking around her but had no clue what to do. She held out her hands, palm out, thinking something might happen.
"You tried that already. You are not smart, are you?" His hands were on his knees with his elbows pointed up. Levy turned her head in a pout, she crossed her arms over her small chest.
"Well, why won't you help me?" She popped out her hip. She hasn't made any progress and it was making her angry. Why was he even still here? "Why are you still here?"
Thymos stood up and strolled over to the solid script mage, his arms were crossed and his dark, abyss eyes were staring directly into her brown eyes. He stopped, touching toes with her, leaning down to touch her nose with his. "That is not my job and I'm still here because I'm attached to you now. I can't leave."
She shifted her feet back, she was scared he was going to do something to her. but he already did, what could be worse? He stepped away from her, back to his stomp, staring away from her now. He looked angry, Levy just groaned and tried to train again.
When Levy put her hands together, right on top of left, she felt a pulse of darkness. She focused on that power pulling her hands apart, keeping them straight, then she could see a small cloud of darkness. She stopped when her right hand was at her forehead and her left hand at her belly button.
It was a giant cloud of darkness, she didn't know what to do with it, turning her head to Thymos; he was looking at her with wide eyes and his mouth wide open. Levy shifted her hands around the cloud to the back of it and pushed it away from her.
The dark cloud flew through the air to a tree and once it hit the tree, it popped and whispt around the tree. The whole tree turned black and died into a hole in the ground. Levy just stood there gaping, she really did that? Then she smiled, she did something so amazing, she did that.
Levy's sapphire hair blew in the wind as she spun around to Thymos, who was staring at her. "Did you really figure out how to do that?" Was he impressed with her?
"Yeah?" she tilted her head, letting her hair fall over her eyes. Levy hardly ever wore her headband, it reminded her of Gajeel and she didn't want to be remember him at all. That was behind her, she felt something for someone else.
"No one ever figures out how to do that so fast." His dark red hair flowed in the wind with how long it is.
That fast? I've been doing this for 3 hours. "That was the first thing I've done in 3 hours." Levy was very confused, that took forever to get. She tried every move from people she's been around and nothing worked then she just thought of meditation stances and that seems to help.
"So, are you going to help me now?" Levy asked walking towards him.
Thymos scoffed and looked away from her again, "Hell no. why the hell would I help you?"
Levy stomped her foot and crossed her arms, "Gods, why are you even here?" she didn't stay to here his witty remark and zipped up her tent. She didn't know why he was still here if he's just going to make her life worse.
Her life was already bad, everyone ignored her, and she barely had any friends as it was and now this demon won't leave her alone, making fun of her every chance he got. She hated him, she wanted him to go away.

She stomped her foot on the ground, letting dust fly into the air, she moved her hands in front of her. The dust turned in a circle, faster and faster the dust swirled in a tornado. The dust tornado spun faster and moved quicker towards the group of trees in front of her.
The darkness running down her leg spread further to the middle of her calf. Her blue hair fluttered in the wind, her brown eyes were focused, and her eyebrows were frowned in determination. Levy had been trying that move for the last 3 weeks and it's been getting better.
She figured out this move when she got angry, once again, at Thymos; she stomped her foot and when dirt flew up her hand swung back as she walked away from him. Levy heard a loud noise once she turned around she saw that the bushes behind them were twisted and broken. Thymos was not answering her questions, so she's been trying to figure it out by herself.
"Your stupid communication thing is ringing!" Thymos called from her tent. He still had not left and he was taking her things.
Levy's spun her head, getting her mind off the memory of that day, it may be Rogue. She ran to her tent, jumping over the firepit she built a while ago. "You are really in love with this dude." He commented, reading through another one of her books.
"Shut the hell up." He is a bad influence on her, she never swore this much. The screen popped up with Rogue, who's hair was down, and he had bandages all over him. He still held a smile when he saw Levy's smiling face, her smile fell when she saw that he was hurt. "What happened? Job not go so well?" she asked tilting her head.
"No, we finished but it was very difficult." The dark-haired man scratched the side of his cheek that had a big patch on it. "We had to take down a small dark guild, they were signing in new members when we showed up. A few of them were pretty tough but Sting and I took them down." Rogue looked like he was gloating to impress Levy.
She smiled at his smirk but then Sting showed up on the screen, "Something weird did happen though that Rogue doesn't want to tell you." Rogue looked at Sting with malice intent while the latter just looked to Levy.
Her brown eyes glanced at Rogue, waiting for him to explain. The shadow dragon slayer sighed and looked down to his lap, "One of the guys in the dark guild may have…" he paused, now looking up at the ceiling.
"One of them mentioned you by name." Sting finished for him, looking suddenly serious. Levy was shocked, why would they mention her? There was nothing special about her, maybe they heard something from Fairy Tail.
"What did they say?" Levy asked, moving a stand of hair behind her ear.
"Hey, look at it this way. At least someone wants to talk to you?" Thymos mocked while he threw his head back in laughter. She just rolled her eyes at him but said nothing.
"They said verbatim, 'We know you talk to Levy McGarden, she has something we want and it's very dangerous.' We don't know what that means but your name is running around the dark guilds." Rogue explained to her, her eyes widened now she understood why they wanted her.
Levy glanced over at Thymos, but he only provided a shrug but was intensely listening to their conversation.
"Well, I have no idea what they are talking about." The solid script mage crossed her arms over her chest. Clearly not noticing the twin dragon slayers looking at the dark marks covering her right eye and stopping on her forehead, almost half her face was black.
"Levy, why don't you tell us what is this new magic you learned." Sting leaned on his elbows.
Levy looked at Rogue, "You told him!" she remembered that Sting wasn't there when she told him about this.
"He overheard." Rogue simply stated. He didn't look happy about this conversation, he wanted to see her in person. It has been awhile since he's seen her in person and he wanted to make sure she was really okay.
Levy puffed out her cheeks and looked off to the side, honestly trying to figure out how to tell them that she is basically cursed by a demon that she let out. Then that demon won't leave her alone and no one else can see her, she's gone into to town for food with him and she looked like a crazy person talking to nothing.
"Levy- ", Sting started to say again but said girl interrupted them.
"I don't know! I have no idea what it is, I just came across it and, and, " She paused because she was on the verge of crying, she didn't know what to do anymore. This was not how she wanted to train, or how she wanted her life to be like. Having this curse on her and not knowing what to do with it and what it was really doing to her.
"Lev, it's okay. We won't ask anymore questions, I'm sorry we asked." Rogue pushed Sting out of the way when he tried to say something, he didn't want to see her cry, especially by him. it slowly hurt him inside when she chocked up.
The sapphire-haired girl lifted her watery eyes and softly smiled, "Thanks Ryos."
"You two are gross." The red-haired demon commented, seemingly bored with the conversation again.

Later that day, Levy was sitting at the lake, moving her bare feet in the water. She was thankful that Thymos was leaving her alone, he got pretty weird after he saw her almost cry. The sun had set about 10 minutes ago, so the moon was lighting the whole area, all she could hear was crickets and several bugs.
Levy was used to the quiet atmosphere of her little area, she's been here for a while now. She couldn't even remember how long she's been out here, she should probably write it down or at least keep track.
She let out a little sigh as she took off her shirt and shimmied out of her shorts. At least the water was warm this time, she sighed again, but this time in comfort. Her small figure moved over to the rocked area off to the side, she dipped her head under the water, so she could wash it.
She hated having only half her hair wet, it just felt weird.
When she fully relaxed she heard a crack of a twig off to the left of her, Levy unconsciously covered her breasts as she looked over, but she saw nothing. The solid script mage stayed quiet but stood up in the lake.
Levy could hear several movements, she felt like it was more than one person or some giant monsters. She witnessed one Vulcan come out of the woods by her and then 3 more walked out behind that one.
"Shit." She whispered, looking around, she tried slowly to get out of the lake. Then she might not be a good idea when she sunk back into the water, up to her eyes. Levy didn't know if she could handle one Vulcan let alone four of them.
The four of them stopped not even a foot away from her, they were getting to the lake as well, "Fuck." She elongated the word quietly as she slowly tried, again, to get out of the lake, unnoticed. When she tripped over a rock almost gone from sight, she let out a gasp and fell on her hands and knees.
All four of them swiftly looked over at Levy, who was in a position she didn't want to be in, her ass in the air. She quickly got to her feet and ran to her tent, she could hear splashing of water and grunts from all of them.
"Woman!" Levy heard one of them say with hearts in his eyes, she ran faster.
"Thymos!" she screamed with the sight of her tent and a small light in it.
The red-haired demon walked out rubbing his eye of sleepiness, he was still not wearing a shirt, Levy wondered if he ever had one to begin with. He yawned, showing off his sharp teeth before he spoke, "What the hell do you want, human?" then he opened his eyes, seeing that she was naked and running from four creatures he's never seen before.
"Help me please!" she pleaded not even hiding her nakedness as she ran into her tent. She was going to get dressed and then help him out. Her blue hair was ruffled in the chance and from throwing on a shirt and trying to find some shorts, she also heard Thymos yelling at the creatures outside.
"Fuck you, you dumb ape men!" He screamed out and then she saw him punch one in the face. "What are these things?" he asked.
"They are forest Vulcans. They have take-over magic, but I doubt they can take over you since you are a demon." Levy explained as she summoned fire to keep them away. Thymos had taken one of them down and had almost taken another one down.
Levy was hit from the side and she landed on her left side, one of the Vulcans didn't seem to happy that his brother was beaten down. They weren't screaming about her being a woman anymore, they just looked angry.
The Vulcan lunged at her while she was getting up, the giant creature punched her in the face, making her head bounce off the ground. Levy groaned and kicked the Vulcan off her, she felt blood run down her cheek and over her eye.
"Use you dark cloud." Thymos told her when he took down the second Vulcan, she felt weak all over again, they took her by surprise and she couldn't come up with a plan quick enough. Levy felt like all this training was a waste now. "Focus!" he yelled again.
She looked over at him, he wasn't looking at her anymore, the Vulcan that hit her was coming at her again. She formed the hand gestures, right on top of left, shaping out a dark gray cloud in her hands. The Vulcan looked like he was amazed by her and stopping in his tracks. It was formed in a medium size and she flew it at the two Vulcans left before they could move.
The cloud dispersed around the two and they started screaming in pain. They were trying to make the smoke around them leave but it wasn't going anywhere. The Vulcans turned gray and then everything stopped, noises were not heard when the two Vulcans dropped to the ground.
"Nice!" Thymos fist pounded the air but Levy just stared on, that's what her cloud could do to living things and not just plants. She needs to read up on this demon and what exactly he gave her. then it all came back to her, he came out of a book, she could just read the damn book.
"What do we do about these things?" she asked too calmly, as she stood to her feet. When Levy looked down she saw that that her whole right foot was covered with dark grey to black. She still had no idea what this was or how it was going to affect her once it covered all of her.
"Why don't you go in the tent and I'll take care of these stupid things." He in turn kicked the one closest to him. she only nodded and went back to the tent to find the book but only found that it was chained and locked.
Her eyes gazed out of the tent at the friendly companion of a demon, he has been messing with her book the whole time he was with her, what did he not want her to know?
Thank you so much for reading and reviewing, I am liking the idea od Levy and Rogue together. I'm glad you guys like it as well. I would love to hear from you guys on how I'm doing. Thanks! Till next time!
