Calming the Chaos

*21

A/N: This chapter gonna be lengthy cause of my happiness of your support. God bless ya'll once again. Wasn't able to update cause of blackout but now I'm back again!

Enjoy!

I stiffened a little. One, she called me by my name and two, she thinks that I'm one of her first friends? She thinks I'm her friend? I suddenly felt happy, which confused me. Why would I feel happy that she thinks I'm her friend? Why would I even feel happy on a train? Lucy must have taken my stiffening as sickness instead of shock because she started massaging my scalp. I let out another contented sigh.

I must have fallen asleep at some point because the next think I knew, Lucy was waking me up to get off the train. I immediately start walking to the harbor. They will follow and if they  don't, they were too slow in the first place. A man saw me walking his way and instantly moved out of the way, but continued to gaze at me. Others soon followed his gaze and saw me, They moved out of my way.

"Is that Chaos?" I heard a woman ask.

"What's he doing here? Wasn't he here a few weeks ago?" A man followed.

"Hush," someone whispered frantically. "Don't you know that he can hear you?"

I glared at everyone. That's right. I can hear you. I can hear everything you say. Can't anyone have a little backbone?

"Is that the tamer of Chaos?" Someone questioned. I forced myself to keep a neutral expression. That rumor's spread around quickly.

"I'd let someone with her looks tame me anytime," a guy says. My blood boiled with rage. I turned to face him and glowered menacingly. the colour drained from his face. He suddenly run down the street to get away from me. 

"Aki?" Luck asked from beside me. I look at her and see the confusion in her eyes. I can feel my glare soften up when I look at her. 

I watched her as she glared at Laxus. "I never said I could tame anything. Some said it as a joke and it seems to have stuck," she said.

"They're some of my first friends," Lucy said.

"They?" Erza questioned.

"Natsu and Happy," she replied quietly.

"Aki," she called again. I turned to her. "Why did you scare him like that? Did he say something that made you angry?"

My eyes widened a bit. She doesn't think I did it just to scare him? What kind of weirdo is she? "He said something unforgiveable," I said.

Her eyes widened a bit. "What did he say?" she asked.

"Probably that Dragneel threatened you to hang around him," Gray said.

"Gray," Erza warned.

He shrugged his shoulders and glared at the ground. "It's true though," he mumbled.

I glared at him, but said nothing. I looked back at Lucy and found that she was holding Happy again. When did he get there? I let out an irritated sigh as I continued to hear people gossip about us. We finally got to the harbor, and Lucy asked around for someone to take us to Galuna Island. Everyone either ran away or refused profusely because they didn't want to go to Galuna Island or because they saw me. We finally found someone to take us, but the boat was very small. I sat beside Lucy with everyone else sitting across from us just like when we were on the train.

"My name is Bobo," the man said as we made our way to the island. "I'm very happy that mages are finally going to help the island."

"Are you a resident there?" I heard Erza ask.
