"You're trying to copy Happy, aren't you?" Natsu asked the female cat as she floated in the air. She looked back at him irritated.
"As if, dimwit!" I snort at them as Lucy projected herself between them.
"Now now, we can have two flying cats." She tries to assure and diffuse the brewing tension.
"Tough. I am concerned about Wendy and that tomcat, this is not a foe to be taken lightly. We cannot face them again until we've come up with a plan of attack." The female cat points logically.
"I wholeheartedly agree, Lady Carla. The enemy is stronger than we anticipated." Jura agreed, a few nodding in agreement such as myself.
"But first..." Carla looked over at Erza, who stood there clutching her arm. I tensed, seeing her wounded arm as she stood there in pain. We walked over to her, seeing if any of us could help.
"Hey, can't you eat this magic too?" One of the playboys asked me. I examined the wound from a short distance before shaking my head regrettably.
"It's not actual dark magic, it's something else." I state.
"I'm no Dr, but it looks like the venom from the snake bite is spreading."
"Master Ichiya." I looked over at him as his playboys began to ask him something.
"I know what you need, painkiller parfume." He whipped out one of his viles, letting the aroma from it spread throughout the air.
"Since when is painkiller an antidote for snake venom?"
"His parfume does more than just ease pain it also has a cleansing effect that will rid her body of any toxins." Erza leaned against the tree more and writhed in more pain.
"Erza, are you alright?!"
"It looks like she's in more pain now."
"You think so?" Ichiya asked as Erza screamed out from the pain.
"Erza, hang in there."
"What do we do?" I turned to Lucy, trying to think of anything we could do."I'm sorry, Lucy, I need to borrow your belt." Erza strained, ripping Lucy's belt from her skirt. She gaped at this action as her skirt fell, which in turn caused the playboys to gape at her. I would have laughed if this wasn't such a serious situation. Erza then proceeded to wrap the belt around her upper arm above the snake bite ...No, she can't possibly expect us too..
"Just what are you gonna do with that?"
"Erza you can't be serious?" I asked this time, stepping forward.
"It's harsh but it's the only way I can keep fighting. Somebody cut it off!" She finalized, throwing her weapon into the ground, a piece of cloth hanging from her mouth. We all tensed at her quick choice to mutilate herself.
"At least give us some time to find an antidote!" Gray yelled at her.
"I don't have time." She hoarse out. The Lyon guy stepped forward grabbing the sword holding it up.
"Very well. I will do it." He volunteers.
"Put down the sword." I ordered, Gray yelling at him as well to lower the weapon.
"Do it!" Erza kept insisting.
"No, don't!" I glared at him as his look didn't waver.
"Um.. Lyon? Are you seriously gonna do it?"
"We can't lose one of our strongest when we're facing such a powerful foe." Lucy agreed but still didn't want to go along with the idea of cutting her arm off. I can see her reasoning, but she's gotta wait. I'm sure we can find a cure or something right?!'
"Oh, come on! I can't believe we got stuck with you wimpy Fairies! Quit whining your friend's gonna die if we don't do anything to help her." I narrowed my eyes at Sherri as she insulted us.
"Your friend's gonna die if he doesn't put down that sword!" Lucy got in her face.
"Why is that? This is just his way of showing love." My eye twitched at this, turning back to Erza as she yelled at us to stop.
"Just hurry up and cut it off before the venom spreads to the rest of my body!" Lyon raised the sword up.
"Put the sword down!" I point at him threateningly.
"Don't do it, you wanna be known as the guy that maimed Erza?!" Gray exclaims, trying to reason.
"You don't have to do this, stop, we'll find a cure." One of the playboys ran forward but was stopped by the saint Jura.
"You have no right to interfere with her wishes." He instructs the boy to stay back, and to mind his place. Lyon took my distraction to his advantage, shoving me aside.
"Ready?" He pulled the sword back, holding it high in the air, before letting it come down towards her arm. It was stopped by Gray as he blocked it with his ice magic, my glare on Lyon harsh as I recover myself from the ground.
"Her arm is more important to you than her life? Where are your priorities?!" Lyon yells.
"This will affect her for the rest of her life so we can't jump the gun, there's gotta be another way we can save her." He defended.
"You're just as spineless as ever, figures." Lyon scoffs scornfully.
"I really thought you had changed but you're just as shady as ever." Gray threw back at him. Erza passed out from the pain, keeping her arm.
"This is bad guys, we gotta find a way to get the venom from spreading or she's gonna die."
"We need Wendy, she can save your friend." We all looked at Carla, Wendy's cat.
"This is no time for us to be bickering amongst ourselves, we need to work together to come up with a plan to rescue Wendy, and I suppose that tomcat too."
"Wait a sec, you're saying that little girl has some kind of anti venom magic?"
"Not just anti venom, she can relieve fever, reduce pain and heal wounds." The cat lists.
"Excuse me but I feel as though my role in the group is being threatened and I find it unsettling."
"That's crazy, everyone knows that healing is lost magic. There's no way the kid can use them."
"Wait, do these powers have anything to do with the Maiden of the Sky thing?" I looked at Lucy waiting for the cat to answer.
"It does. You see that little girl is the Sky dragon slayer. She's Wendy the Sky dragon!" I froze. That's what was different about her!
"She's a dragon slayer too?!" Natsu questioned. Carla looked between Natsu and I.
"I'll give you all the details later, although there's really not much more you need to know. Wendy is the only one capable of saving your friend, we need her right now. Unfortunately the Oracion Seis feel as though they need her too for some reason." I raised a clenched fist getting ready for a fight once more.
"In that case-"
"There's only one thing for us to do-"
"We're gonna have to rescue Wendy-"
"We'll do it for Erza's sake-"
"And Happy's too!"
"Okay, are you with me?!" Natsu yelled out, all fired to go. We cheered, everyone getting amped up for another fight.
