If this world continues to reject me, then I shall reject the world

     Gray could only stare at Natsu.  He quickly stumbled passed his bewilderment and cleared his throat.

     "That's not funny Natsu," Gray crossed his arms.

 Natsu scowled, "Funny? I was being completely serious."

      "Stop joking." 

     "I'm not joking," Natsu replied. "why would I go all the way to Era to rescue someone I tried to kill? You...think of Lyon."

 Gray raised an eyebrow.

     "If he had been captured by the royal army, wouldn't you save him?"

     "No, he probably would  be captured because he did something stupid."

 Natsu growled and smacked the back of Gray's head, not playfully.

     "Wake up Gray! Stop denying the facts I've told you! My point is, you think of Lyon as a brother! Zeref is my brother! I had to save him! What if Lyon had information about something very crucial to your past?" Natsu shouted. "He has information about my past! I only know what he told me! And I believe him!" 

 Gray bit his tongue. It couldn't be true. Zeref created END. Natsu couldn't be related to him. 

 Natsu heaved a sigh, "Now, I need to get him somewhere with someone so I can figure out how to stop his curse."

 Gray remained silent. Pondering over the words Natsu had spoken. Why would he lie...

 Natsu closed his eyes and relaxed, "Get some rest, Ice Freak. I don't care if you come with me."

     Morning came fast. Whence Gray awoke, he found much to his dismay, that Natsu and Zeref were gone. 

 Gray cursed to himself under his breath when he noticed a dirty and crumpled piece of paper. He picked it up and began to read the very sloppy words. 

 I'm finding someone to help me. You were sleeping to hard. If you want to join me, you can go ahead and try to find me.

   ~Natsu

Wonderful.

     Natsu growled under the weight of Zeref, "Why are you so heavy?"

 He sighed. He was going to kick Zeref's butt. From the sun rising and falling, and the moon doing the same, days had moved by quickly. He felt movement on his back, and Natsu briskly put Zeref on the ground. Panic welled inside of him as Zeref groaned. 

 Natsu looked around worriedly, and punched Zeref in the cheek. The Dark Mage quickly fell unconscious once more with a red mark on his cheek. 

     "Sorry...can't have you waking up just yet," Natsu murmured to himself, picking up Zeref again and resuming his walk.

 Natsu could think of only one person who would have the slightest clue about how to rid Zeref of his curse, and it made Natsu's stomach churn just thinking about him.
