Save Me From Myself \\ ℕ𝕒𝕥𝕤𝕦

Show Time

"Onibas. We haven't been here since the lullaby thing." Lucy thinks back, looking around the place in remembrance as I sulk. We had just gotten off the train and Natsu wasn't feeling too good. And ya know, maybe he wouldn't feel so bad if he had just kept his mouth shut.


~Flashback~ to the train~

"I'm hungry." Happy whined.
"Me to." We all agreed, myself wholeheartedly.
"Why are you hungry? You ate just before we left!" Natsu exclaims, causing me to gasp at him offendedly.
"So what? I get hungry a lot." I defend, looking at him with daring eyes.
"I don't know.." He says trailing off. Suggestively.
"What exactly are you implying? That I eat a lot!? That I'm fat!?" I narrowed my eyes at him, practically begging him to say the wrong thing.
"No.. But you well be if you keep eating like that." He remarks knowing, offering a generous smile.
"Why you!" I yelled, getting ready to attack him when Gray held me back.
"Dude not a good thing to say to a lady." Gray sighs.
"Ya know, I was gonna help you out when the train started moving, but now!? I hope you puke your guts out! I'd say brain, but you don't have any!" I declare, crossing my arms and turning from him in a pout.
"WHAT?! No, you can't do that, I finally have a way to go on transportations without wanting to puke so badly! You can't do that!" He yelled back dramatically.
"Should have thought of that before you called me fat!" I don't give in.
"No- What? I didn't! I didn't call you fat! I take it back! Mara, please!!?" He begs, I only turn my head the other way.
"Do you guys hear anything? I hear this annoying buzz." I asked as sarcastically as I could, the group chuckling amongst each other as Natsu pleaded with me.
"Sit back and relax, fire breathe, the train is about to move and I'm gonna enjoy every second of your torment." I grinned at him brightly as the train swayed into motion, him immediately melting into the floor.


~~~End of flashback~~~



"C'mon Natsu, you wouldn't want to be left behind, would you?' I asked him as he stayed on the floor of the train, grumbling in nauseous agony. He groaned out again, causing me to sigh as I knew he wasn't going to get up any time soon. I made my way back to him, throwing him over my shoulder while resuming after the others.
"This is all your fault, you know this, right?" I hum amusingly as I glance back at him.
"Oh, shut up." He grumbled, not failing to notice the small smile that came with him. I beam silently, almost forgetting the dreaded mission while trailing after the others. I made my way to the group, not bothering to set Natsu down as I could almost feel his stomach still swaying side to side, as if lost in sea.
"-Natsu well impress them with him fire magic, you'll make amazing ice sculptures. Mara.. I don't know what her power is, um, but I'm sure we can use that still. And, and Erza well reequip into different armor, and I'll have Lyra sing a song that well melt their hearts." Lucy laughed as I faked gag at the thought of the singing. Natsu started laughing as Lucy turned back looking at me weirdly.
"It something wrong, Lucy?" I asked with fake innocence.
"I heard that, ya know." She states bluntly. I chuckled.
"Oops." I said. "Yeah 'Oops.'" She joked back.

    I set Natsu down gently, as we got to a big building.
"Pretty classy, huh?" Happy asked out loud. I stare blankly.
"Let's go." I move on quickly while walking up the steps, taking notice of someone standing behind one of the pillars.
"Excuse me.. I don't suppose you're the wizards from Fairy Tail are you?" He inquired. I jab my thumb back for Lucy, letting her do the talking.
"Yep." Lucy gleams and answered for us.
" Oh, thank you so much for accepting the job. I can't thank you enough." He thanked. I stood there boredly, using Natsu as an arm rest. I noticed him side glance to take an inspecting look at me as I did so, pretending I didn't notice.
"Don't worry sir. We'll make sure you have a full house." I offer lamely with my head propped on my hand, the arm that was still resting on Natsu's shoulder. If I was being honest, I was tired. I rather be fighting not.. this. The stillness bored me, made me want to take a nap. Sigh.. oh well.
"Actually, about that. I'm suddenly in a pickle right now." He starts, leading us all inside.
