"I guess it's time," I say, slipping my hands into the handcuff.
Katashi nods and locks the cuffs in place.
"I suppose these cuffs are magic resistant," I say, hoping he'll reply.
Instead he nods and leads me out of the room.
"Is something wrong?" I ask.
"No, everything's fine, I'm just thinking about something. It's none of your business, anyways," Katashi says, and starts walking faster.
Did something happen after he left?
We walk the rest of the way in silence, and we finally stop in front of the room that they were in before.
Katashi knocks on the door and says "The girl's here."
"Let her in," Comes the reply.
Katashi opens the door, and I walk in. He closes the door behind me, and waits outside.
Creation sits behind his desk, and he looks the same as he had in that glimpse that Deity showed me, except he looked older and he's dressed differently. He wears a black cape, concealing what he's wearing inside, but I assume he must have a concealed weapon.
"So, you're Deity's friend," Creation says with a deep voice. He stands up and walks over to me. "I wonder what he'll do to get you back."
"He probably won't care," I say, hoping to appear as though he's not a friend of mine.
"My dear, I'm sure he will," Creation chuckles. "I should introduce myself, shouldn't I. I'm Creation."
"I figured as much," I reply. "I'm Crystal."
"Nice to meet you," He says.
"Can't say the same for you," I say, coldly. .
"Ouch, why so mean?" Creation asks, pretending to be hurt. "Well then, take a seat, you must be tired."
"After standing for about a minute, I'm not," I say, taking a seat anyways. "What is your business with me?"
"I want to use you lure Deity in," Creation says.
"What did he ever do?" I ask,trying to defend him, knowing very well it won't work.
"He took my position," Creation grimaces.
"One, that was not his fault. Two, I hope you realize that I'm not going to cooperate," I respond.
"I thought you'd say that," Creation sighs. "But I have my ways."
"What do you mean?" I ask.
"We're currently over Fairy tail," Creation says. "Try anything funny and they'll have it."
What? We're over Fairy Tail?
"Wait what?" I ask, hoping I was just hearing things.
"You heard me," Creation says, leaning back in his chair, studying me.
"What're you going to do?" I ask, unsure that I really want an answer.
"You'll see if you pull something," Creation answers.
I look down at my hands. What should I do? I can't sell out my friends, but if I don't they could end up being killed.
I wipe my hands on my jeans and look at Creation, who just laughs.
"What's so funny?" I ask, boldly.
"I love that look of despair on your face," Creation chuckles. "Anyways, to the plan. We need you to say something to Deity for us."
"I refuse," I say, as Creation gives me a look that says something along the lines of are you sure you wanna do that?
"I think you're bluffing. I don't believe we're above Fairy Tail. Unless you show me, I won't believe you," I challenge.
"Very well," Creation says, standing up and turning to look out the window.. "Come this way, but don't try anything."
I get up and walk to the window, alongside him. I look down and see the guild, loud with everyone fighting again.
I hope they're okay.
"Okay, now sit down. I need to tell you the rest of the plan," Creation says.
I take a seat and listen to him as I begin making a plan of my own, and as he talks it all comes together.
"You need to tell Deity to come to a specific location alone," Creations finishes. "The location is Margaret Town, and should you say anything out of line, you will not like the consequences."
"Okay," I say. I hope he doesn't do anything to Fairy Tail, otherwise my plan will mean their death.
"Shall we begin?" Creation asks, already casting the spell.
Suddenly I see The Unknown and team Natsu, and from the background I can tell they're at the guild.
Good, I hope this works.
Everyone jumps back, startled by my sudden appearance. After they get over their shock, they crowd around the screen.
"Crystal! Are you okay?" Rin asks, recovering her poise last.
"I'm fine, I need to speak to Deity, quickly," I say, looking around for The Unknown hoping he's there.
They make way, so I can see The Unknown
"Here I am," The Unknown says.
I look at Creation and ask "Is it okay if I tell Deity's counterpart instead?"
Creation nods, and I look back at the screen.
"Who's there?" Mai asks, and I look at Creation who signals to keep my mouth shut.
"No one," I say. "Unknown, you need to go to Margaret town alone. As soon as possible."
"Okay," He says, not questioning me.
"I have to tell you something else too," I say quickly. I look over the screen at Creation, who gives me a threatening look.
"What is it?" The Unknown asks.
It's now or never.
"Unknown, get everyone out of the guild now!" I yell. "We're above you right now, and do NOT come to-"
Creation gets up quickly, storms towards me and punches me below the rib cage.
"Crystal!" Alex yells, and the line goes dead.
"What do you think you're doing?" Creation scowls.
I don't respond, considering I can't really breath.
Creation opens the door and throws me out. He looks at Katashi and says something that I can't quite catch.
Creation gives me a look of distaste and says something that I make out to be "You'll pay for this,"
I shudder at the thought of what he'll do to me.
Katashi grabs my arm, and drags me back to my cell. Katashi leaves for a while and I attempt to get up to see if everyone is okay.
But before I can look out the window, a sudden attack rocks the guild. Bits of the building around rain down around me, but I don't have the strength to move.
Suddenly, I feel a shift in space, as if we're somewhere else in the world.
This must have been the work of Creation, no one else could do this.
A moment later Katashi comes in with a key. He unlocks my handcuffs and sits down in a corner with his head in between his hands
"Crystal, if you can hear me, Master is very angry with you. I don't know what you did, but he's extremely mad," Katashi mutters.
I don't reply, because I have no idea how to reply to that.
"He's going to punish you, and it's not gonna be good," Katashi sighs, getting up and walking to the door
Katashi leaves, and I stay in my corner, trying to recover in case Creation comes in.
If this was just one punch, what am I gonna do if he beats me.
I try to move my limbs to make sure I can still function properly.
A few moments later, Creation shows up, and I stand, using the wall to steady myself.
"What was that little stunt you pulled back there, huh?" He snarls, grabbing my arm and tossing me toward the wall, as though I weigh nothing.
I hit the wall and fall to the floor. I'm pretty sure I broke a few bones, and I try to get up again.
Before I can actually stand, Creation hauls my onto my feet, and throws me again. This time I don't hit the wall, but my left shoulder starts bleeding, from the impact of the fall.
I crawl into a corner and wait as Creation finishes his tantrum.
Once Creation seems to have calmed down, he says "No matter, I can make this work. If you won't cooperate, I have other means."
He gives me a final look of hatred, and leaves.
I wait until I know for sure that he is gone. Then I crawl to the box in the opposite corner, and pull out the bandaging materials. I bandage my shoulder, and look through the box for other things I could use to heal myself.
If only I could use magic.
I close the box and crawl over to the bed next to the door. I lie down and close my eyes.
Before long I hear the door open again and I sit up to see who it is.
This man looks to be in his thirties, and has jet black hair. He wears a robe, with short sleeves but leaves it open , instead of zipping it up. Inside he has a sword, and he wears black jeans with a black turtleneck, along with black boots.
"So you're the one that made Master angry," The man grins. "I'm Daichi, nice to meet you."
"Crystal," I reply. "Why are you here?"
"I thought you'd want to know who was behind that dream you had on Tenroujima island and the other presence you sensed," Daichi smirks.
"It was you?!" I almost yell. I want to throw something at him, with whatever strength I regained.
"Yes it was," Daichi says, examining his nails.
"Why?" I ask, trying to calm down, before I throw the next thing that comes into my hands.
"I was supposed to do it to this Deity guy, but I couldn't control his dreams, so I settled for you," He explains. "See, my magic is Soul Manipulation. I can manipulate a soul along with whatever powers they had when they were alive their."
"So you manipulated a soul who had the power to change dreams?" I ask.
"Basically," Daichi smiles, admiring his handy work.
"What was the point of all that?" I ask, trying to steady my breathing.
"I wanted to see if it would get to you," Daichi grins. "Looks like I got pretty close."
I clench my fists, to keep from throwing something.
Daichi yawns. "Well I have business to attend elsewhere. See you around."
Daichi leaves, locking the door behind him, and I hear him laugh outside.
Why would he do that to me though? Why not someone else?
I look out the window and the sun has gone down completely, leaving the pitch black darkness of night.
I lie down in my bed and go to sleep, praying the everyone would be okay back in Fairy Tail
When I wake up in the morning, there's a platter on the table next to the bed.
I unlid the platter and inside is a few slices of toast and a cup of water. I'm not very hungry, so I nibble on the end of a slice of toast.
Slowly, I finish all of it, and drink the water. I put the lid back on the tray, and lie down again.
I unbandage my shoulder to check on my wound, and it's scarred. It's stopped bleeding though, so I'll be fine.
I take off all the bandages and put my leather jacket on, to cover it. I didn't realize that I didn't have it on yesterday, that I'd just tied it around my waist.
I put it on to cover my shoulder, and lie down on my bed, wondering what harm will befall me today.
I wonder how this will end up. I know it's one in the morning right now, at least where I am, but I couldn't sleep, so I decided to write this chapter. Just as a heads up, I might update later on today, or tomorrow. I'll see you then! Bye!
