Chapter 16: We Will Exceed!

:Media- God Damn You're Beautiful by Chester See:

3rd person Pov:

You, Sting, Rogue and the exceeds were walking through the woods. You've been walking for about 3 hours. It was about to get dark soon. "Ouch!" You grabbed your foot. You were getting bit up by the bugs around you.

"You okay?" Sting asked.

"Yeah, no I'm fine. The bugs are getting active though," You complained while itching one of the bites on your leg.

"Let's make camp," Rogue said still walking, "I see a clearing up ahead."

"Finally! My feet were starting to hurt," you said catching up to Rogue and the exceeds. Sting staid behind for a minute. He smiled to himself. He was thinking. Thinking about how lucky he was. Meeting you. Getting close to you. Watching you smile. Listening to that sweet laugh, and voice. He chuckled and shook his head starting to walk towards you and the others. When he finally caught up, Rogue was already starting a fire. You were laying out a sleeping bags next to the pit.

"Wait, why is there only 1 sleeping bag?" Sting asked?

You sheepishly scratched your neck, "Well... I forgot mine..."

Sting just sighed, "If you'd like you can sleep in my sleeping bag." He threw the bag on the ground in front of your feet. You only smiled and shook your head, "No, no, no. It's your sleeping bag. It was my fault that I didn't bring mine. And I... I actually want to sleep in the tree tonight."

Sting cocked an eye brow, "You want to sleep in the tree?"

I nodded, "Yes. It's going to be a full moon tonight... and well... I would just like to sleep in the tree."

"Which tree?" Sting asked pinching the bridge of his nose.

You walked up to the tallest oak tree around, "This one."

"Are you sure?" Sting asked looking up it.

"Yes. 100 percent sure," You said as you backed up. You started running towards the tree and jumped, wrapping your hands around the first bough. You pushed yourself up and continued climbing. Got to get higher. Got to get higher. Keep climbing!

"(Y/N)! Don't you think that's high enough!" Sting shouted from the bottom. You snapped out of the trance you were in  and looked down. Sting was just barely a speck to you. You looked up to the sky. You were nearly at the top of the tree. You looked back down and yelled, "I'm going to the very top!"

"ARE YOU NUTS!" Sting scolded, "YOU MIGHT GET HURT! YOU COULD EVEN FALL!"

You pulled yourself up to the last steady branch of the tree. You sat down, straddling it. You pushed back some leaves and branches to clear your view of the sky. You grabbed your pack and leaned back on the tree. You pulled out a blanket and sat the pack behind your head for a pillow.

"(Y/N)!" Sting yelled.

"Yes, mum?" You yelled back teasingly.

"Do you really need to be that high?" He asked.

"I'm closer to the moon here," you said slightly above normal talking tone.

"I can't hear you!" Sting said.

I sighed, "I said, 'I'm closer to the moon here'!"

Sting loosened up, "Oh." He looked down. How was I so stupid, she's a Moon Dragon Slayer... It's a full moon. A full view of where Glare could be. The moon means a lot... Sting sighed, "Just be careful."

*~*~*~*~*

Sting and Rogue were curled up with their exceeds in their arms, under the warmth of the sleeping bags. The sun went down a while ago, and now the moon danced along the sky. You sat their humming songs you remembered Glare would teach you or even sing to you.

You stared at the moon for a long time. You looked at your hand and saw the white glowing energy circling it. You could feel your body responding to the full moon. You relaxed into the tree and closed your eyes, listening to the voice of the moon.

Glare told you that if you listened closely to the moon, you could hear Eclipse calling for her. You smiled, as tears welled up in your eyes. Where did you go Glare? You told me you would always be with me... you would always protect me... Where are you? Did... Did I do something wrong? What the hell did I do so wrong?! You slammed your fist on the tree. You were fighting back the tears. You looked up to the moon again, "You said the worst things in life come free to us. Is this what you mean? Feelings like sadness and pain? The loneliness that is devouring my thoughts?"

Suddenly something wrapped around your waist. You looked down to see a fluffy, grey furry thing tied around your waist. You were confused and looked up to see bright, neon green eyes and a small pink nose. "What the-" you were cut off as the creature flew into the night. "Yes! I finally found a dragon slayer!" the creature cheered as it flew, "Now I can go home, bring the human to Lady Shagotte!" It was fist pumping the air.

Its voice sounded childish. Not annoying... but... sweetly cute. You struggled as its tail was tight around you. "STING!" You yelled.

"Quiet, human!" the creature snapped. You looked back at it taking a double take. Lit by the moon light you saw that it was fluffy grey fur with a white stomach and a white diamond shape on its forehead. It had sock like markings on its paws. You looked down and stuck your thumb in between its tail and your skin and peeled its tail back. You were free... falling. You weren't worried about crashing and hurting yourself. You were worried about crashing on top of Sting or Rogue. You started to scream and flail in mid air. You looked at the moon. "Moon Dragon Slayer: Ray Dash!" You collected energy under your foot and sprung for the nearest tree grabbing on to one of its branches.

Crack. You looked and saw the branch about to break. Freaking kidding me right now!
