Fairy Tail | Mysterious Magic (Discontinued)

Chapter 7

"Don't forget my leg is still healing so can you slow down a bit?!"

Y/N yells as she is still trying to catch up with him, he's definitely fast for a dragon boy. If they don't end up making it she wondered if they have to camp out or something? Y/N would rather not take her chances running into those thugs again though... she wondered if they even ever got put in jail by now?

She was moving much better than before but much too slow for his liking so, to speed things up a bit much like that potion, Natsu lashed out with his hand and took a firm grip over her wrist slowing himself down a tad bit.

Natsu simplified the situation, this was another challenge to be surmounted. His opponent on the other side? Time itself. With a grim smile and a furrowed set of brows he felt more than ready.

"C'mon, we're gonna be late, you can rest all you want when we're on the train it ain't all THAT far!"

Natsu's legs became a blur of motion as he pumped his feet underneath himself and took off with her in tow in his stride, at his--albeit slowed--own pace.

Y/N was very surprised by the sudden grab and yelped the moment he charged forward. Y/N gets why he wants to go to the train quickly but he really doesn't know how to take it easy. Y/N kept up the best she could as he was pulling her, she was at least glad her leg was healing enough for this run not to sprain it further.

"Do you always have to rush for everything you do?!" Y/N asked as she shouted to make sure he can still hear her even when he has hold of her now.

It wasn't fast enough. The port town became a smear of coloration of buildings, bridges, and walkways. Natsu, for his own reasons, decided to give a hearty yank on her arm with enough strength to momentarily lift her up and forward before catching her in his arms bridal-style; with one of his arms supporting her back and legs in front of his own body.

"We do if we're gonna be late! Now, pipe down or else we'll really be late! I'm kickin' it up a notch!"

When he suddenly yanked her up into his arms, Y/N not only shriek but got tad bit flustered by the action, he truly was a guy on the go. Y/N quickly wrapped her arms around his neck to keep steady and buried her face in his chest as she was startled from his fast speed.

Y/N was afraid he would suddenly trip and drop her by how fast he was going, Y/N just hoped he knew what he's doing but if he does this often then maybe he does... maybe? Y/N never had anyone carrying her around like this, though during this she took notice how warm he was, which made sense since he has fire magic and is part dragon... and he is definitely very strong she could tell by the way he lifted her so quickly.

Eventually Y/N lifts her head up a bit to look up at Natsu, she wondered why he was getting so pumped up over trying to catch a train? Y/N figured he had to be tired by now from how late it was getting unless he was just eager to make it back home. Y/N could definitely tell he isn't anyone normal she ever met, but that just made him more interesting and fun actually. During the run Y/N ended up putting a smile on her face, this was actually kinda fun as she suddenly felt so alive by his speed as it caused her to laugh by how exciting this is to her. Y/N didn't feel so scared anymore but felt like she's having the time of her life.

He wasn't excited about riding the train, it was beyond uncomfortable and the ride was always less than stellar for someone with motion sickness. Still, the earlier the better. At the very least, he wouldn't be alone.

Natsu was NOT dressed for sprinting with his preferential piece of wardrobe in his two-strapped sandals that clapped incessantly against the smooth ground and against the bottom of his heel.
