Vampire's Last Kind

Chapter 19: Another Explosion

[Lucy POV]

I stared out the window, looking at the blue clear sky.

Then, I felt a tap on my shoulder, I turned around and saw Gray holding a cup of booze. I shook my head lightly. Gray looked at me with curious eyes, but left moments later.

I looked back at the window and saw my reflection. My medium-length, blonde, silky hair that laid on my shoulder, started to fall down strand by strand. My brown, sparkly orbs slightly squinted as I concentrated more on my reflection. The area my mouth was staring at, started to get foggy. I continued to stare, nothing's really happening. However, right when I started to relax, a reflection of a man with black hair and cape, appeared in front of my reflection and disappeared in a flash. I gagged on the water I was drinking. I grabbed a napkin and wiped my mouth and the table. As I was wiping the water on the glass table, so many questions went through my head.

Who was that person?

Why did I see him again?

And, why do I feel like he's so close....

"Luce?" Natsu asked, coming up behind me.

I snapped out of my thoughts, and the first thing that I said was, "Luce?"

"Yeah! I just thought of it just now! It feels so right to call you Luce!" Natsu smiled.

"Haha, Alright." I smiled back.

"It's getting dark. We should head back to Fairy Tail." Erza spoke.

"Uh...Erza," Gray said. "About that..."

~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~

"YOU WHAT?" Erza grabbed both Natsu's and Gray's shirt.

"We had a fight and got kicked out for a week..." Gray replied.

"This is why we should have not paired Gray and Natsu together." Erza shook her head, with her eyes closed. "C'mon, we'll book a cabin."

"Ok!" Gray and Natsu responded. I shook my head, playfully, and giggled lightly. Then, I felt a sharp sting. I fell onto the floor, making a big thump sound.

"Luce!" Natsu ran over to me. "What happened!?"

"I-I...Don't know...It hurts Natsu...My chest hurts..." I started to tear up because it was really painful. I hugged Natsu and wrapped my arms around his neck. "H-Help...Natsu..." My vision started to blur, but I used all my strength to keep myself conscious.

"Luce, stay strong!"

"Lucy-San!" Wendy came over to me and started to heal me.

"W-Wendy...?" I managed to say.

"Shhh, Lucy-San." Wendy smiled at me. I closed my eyes, and ended up falling asleep.

~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~

What the hell is this?

All I saw was black, and white tiny circles. I tried to open my eyes, but I just couldn't open it. I wanted to raise my arms and forcefully open my eyelids, but my arms wouldn't budge either. I tried to open it again, but couldn't. I gave up. I sighed in my head.

I had to admit it, I didn't want to wake up. I felt so relaxed, so calm, so at peace, in my state of mind. I didn't need anyone, I didn't need anything. Then all of a sudden, boom!

W-What was that!?

Boom!

It happened again!
