Rinni's POV
I was lost in my thoughts for a short amount of time when the door to my room burst open.
"Rinni get up! We're under attack!"
That snapped me out as the sound of the bell ringing went off. My eyes widened and I immediately grabbed my ax and ran with the others. Suddenly Warren's voice was heard in my mind and I was lifted off the ground as Natsu and Happy grabbed me from the back of my shirt before Gajeel came and hooked his arms under my arms. Despite not being a dragon slayer, they put me in the Dragon Flight Force because dragon slayers are known to get motion sickness, and plus, it's just a precaution. Quite honestly, I never told this to anyone but when I first landed back in Fairy Tail I found myself in a crystal cave. I didn't know why but due to the hunger I felt because of the oracle cells I ended up eating the crystals. These crystals were lacrimas and they did help give me a power boost that I was just hiding until now.
They dropped me by the stabilizers of one of the ships before they landed on another. I grabbed hold of the stabilizer before using the magic that I had to transform it into something useless in their situation. The ship began to stir to the left because of the imbalance. I quickly got up and climbed onto the bridge. I ran and avoided any attacks they sent me before jumping off to another stabilizer of another ship as the ship I was previously on crashed. My heart raced as I grew closer to my target but the ship had moved. My eyes widened as I didn't reach them and continued to fall. I spun in the air for a bit as I stabilized myself. I knew Erza at this point would be busy. I don't know where the rest of the Dragon Flight Force is, I brought my arms in front of me, forming an x, as I brought my knees to my midsection. I groaned as I forced myself to go through my plan. Luckily for me, the lacrima I consumed and stored helped me at this moment. Fleshy wings sprout from my back and I groaned in pain and discomfort. How can Happy and the other exceeds be comfortable with this?! I continued to fall before I tried to flap my wings. Because of how large they are I was able to slow my descent. It was painful as I tried to get used to flying. After what felt like forever I got used to it and I was about maybe 500 meters away from the ground. I began to flap my wings back to the battle.
I flew to the other ships and decided to just destroy their stabilizers with my ax instead of transforming them. In the eyes of others, I probably looked like a damned monster, I would think so if I were in their shoes, but this monster has a mission. Suddenly I was blown away by a massive sandstorm. I managed to stop but it hurt. I had my eyes closed and I couldn't hear a thing besides the wind, then it was all gone when I heard a loud blast. I shook off any of the sand that got on me and I saw Erza falling. I immediately tucked my wings in and made a beeline toward Erza. I managed to grab her but we were too close to the ground so I ended up wrapping my wings around her and myself. I will say... it was painful. I unraveled ourselves just as Wendy and Natsu arrived. I quickly got up and unfurled my wings to see them broken.
"Rinni! Let me-"
"Don't. Use your magic on Erza. I got this"
I used any magic I had to retransform my wings back to normal and I took off. I flew towards the town, feeling that there was more trouble brewing there. I saw a blast from the cathedral and I bolted toward it. I kicked the door open and all I saw were machines. The bigger one stared at me before suddenly it produced a robot that made me freeze.
The robot resembled me but with a small snout and large tufts of fur. Metal transformed into something similar to the black/maroon-ish muscle that covered my arms and wings that I currently had was present.
But what scared me the most was the eyes.
The eyes were glowing yellow with slits for pupils, staring at me with nothing but pure hatred and the gaze that they just wanted to devour me into nothingness.
It's scary...
It growled at me before charging. I quickly transformed my arms and made it crash toward a wall with its velocity but while I was distracted I felt something slash my side and grab ahold of my neck as it choked me. I couldn't help but cough as I was soon let go. There were only a few moments of peace and relaxation before I saw a head glowing as if it was gonna explode so I pushed Ichiya away and grabbed the head before flying into the sky as it exploded. I didn't know what happened next but when I came too I was covered in bandages inside the guild hall.
"Master! Rinni's awake!" I heard Levy said
"Rinni! You reckless child! I should-"
"Hehehe... Calm down... You're gonna raise your blood pressure... Besides... I just didn't want my family to get hurt."
"Rinni, you can keep sacrificing yourself for others. You'll have nothing left if you keep this up" Master Mavis said
"But it's worth it..." I weakly argued
"Is it worth it for other people to cry when they have to bury you six feet under?! Is it?! Hell, we might only have an empty casket to bury if you keep this up!" Lisanna asked and I fell silent
I knew that was a very sensitive topic for everyone because of what happened before...
"Rinni, with a heavy heart I have to say this... It's time for you to go home." Master Makarov said
Tears well up in my eyes, knowing full well what they mean.
"B-but I am home" I argued with a sob
"Rinni, this will always be your home. You belong here, but you also belong somewhere else. We all want you to stay but if you do, I'm afraid we'll see a gravestone instead of you."
"C-can't I stay? I wanna stay. I-I won't fight anymore, I'll stay here and, and- please... just let me stay" I begged as tears flowed from my eyes
"You can't... You're dying a lot quicker here... The cells within you will consume you if you stay here... For everyone's sake... please, go home." Master Makarov begged
"But what about the fight? I thought family always-"
"Stop with the excuses Rinni. It's time to-"
"No... please no..." I begged once more
"Go home." Master Mavis continued
"Please... let me stay..."
"We want to, believe us when we say we want to... but we'd rather see you go and know you're alive than stay and have a grave ready for you at the end of this." Master Makarov said
"Please..." I begged once more
"Rinni... it's time. You need to-"
"Go home..." I said as I cried even more, finally giving in
I knew deep down that the master was right, but I wanted to grieve. I don't know if I'll ever see them again, high possibility that I won't, so I want to grieve.
Grieve that I was being separated from the family I made here.
I felt some people hug me as I continued to cry. I finally calmed down after a few minutes. I really hated goodbyes. They gave me sad smiles as Master Makarov placed the ring necklace onto my hands. I once again, vanish from their lives, this time, it's possible forever.
