Rogue's P.O.V.

I sit on the couch waiting for Sting to come out of the shower and Natsu to come out of his motion sick daze. As I wait I think Sting was acting weird when Natsu came to get us. After I kissed and hugged him Sting looked a bit jealous and put forth an overly dramatic act to try to prove he loves Natsu more. All a sudden I hear a groaning noise from the bed. I look over and see Natsu tossing and turning seeming to be having a bad dream. He starts talking in his sleep about something or other. I try to figure out what I should do. But before I can he sits up screaming covered in sweat and tears streaming down his cheeks. I drop my book and run over to him trying to comfort him as Sting runs out of the bathroom only wearing a towel around his waist.
"Whats going in?! Who scre-" he says pausing mid-sentence seeing Natsu crying. He runs over and tries to help me comfort him.

"Natsu?" I say," Are you alright? Why did you scream?" I ask rubbing his back trying my best to stop his crying.

He mutters," It was that stupid nightmare again." He grabs a Kleenex from Sting and wipes his tears away.

"What do you mean by 'that nightmare again' Natsu-san?" Sting and I ask in a half worried half curious tone.

"Its a dream I have been having for a long time now." He replies sniffling.

"What happens in it? I mean if you want to. It might help if you talk about it." I tell him.

He sighs and says," In the dream I see two sences. One when I am happy with Igneel and the other with the guild. A terrible, dark, and scary voice says I have to choose. When I attempt to choose the voice laughs miniacly and the sences get invelepted in darkness. I run as the darkness tries to get me. But no matter how fast I run it alwsys gets me? The darkness consumes me and then I fall into a void of swirling darkness screaming as I fall. Then I see Igneel again. And he says, "I am disappointed in you Natsu. I should have never trained such a weakling like you. Then I hear the master's voice and- and he banishes me from the guild." Once he finishes he starts crying again burying his face in my chest holding me tight.

"Thats sounds so horrible. We are sorry if we made you cry again when you told us." Sting and I say hugging him tight saying it will be okay.

He siffles and wips his tears. " It's fine. But, we need to head out to find the job poster to get the details of the mission. And Sting needs to put clothes on." He says giggling as he stares at Sting.

Time Skip To The Job Poster's House:

Job poster: Please have a seat.
We all sit down on the couch across from him with Natsu between us.
Natsu: So whats this job about anyways Mr.Jaken?
Rogue: Yes, could you please tell us?
Mr.Jaken: There is a demon monster hiding in the woods at the edge of the village. Every night if anyone is on the street past 11pm they get taken away by it. People have seen him from their windows. He has horrible red eyes, a long pointy tail, horrible bat like wings, and 4 inch long fangs.
Natsu pales as he hears this and tenses up.
Sting: We see. So, if we kill this demon and bring back proof you will pay us 400g jewel correct?
Mr.Jaken: Yes that is right. Please be safe and please hurry to get rid of him.
We all say: Will do. We will be back again as soon as possible.

Time Skip To Nighttime:

We all hide as we wait for the monster to come. After not long we hear a scream for help and quickly run to go save the person. The person who screamed was a little girl around Wendy's age with brown hair with matching eyes. Natsu freezes and sraggers backwards mumbling," No. No! It can't be! It can be him!"

I look at him as Sting grabs the girl when the monster turns towards Natsu. I say," Natsu what do you mean?"

The monster grins showing off his gleaming fangs," Well if it isn't my favorite human to haunt. Hello Natsu Dragneel!" He lounges at Natsu. I pull him out of the way just in time.

"NATSU SNAP OUT OF IT! WE NEED TO DESRTOY THIS GUY!" I yell over the monster's horrid roars.

He snaps out of it and uses the same move he used to defeat Sting and I. I smile and Sting and I help.
Time Skip To The End Of The Battle:

We walk back to Cozy Inn dragging the tail and carrying one fang as proof. We desided we'll go see him on Tuesday so we can sleep and get cleaned up. And so Natsu can explain what the demon meant by 'my favorite person to haunt'.
We set the stuff down and crash on the soft comfy beds.

Author's Note:
Sorry I didn't do a full fight sence. I didn't know what to do for it. I can't wait to see how Sting and Rouge react when Natsu tells them what the demon meant. Till next time my kitties.
