Your P.O.V

We got-. Ugh. I think I will puke again. Oh God----

..

..

..

Ok... I'm never riding trains again... Back to what I was about to say. We got back from Hargeon. We finished our first mission, or should I say I finished my first mission with them? Oh, the reward? Apparently, Erza-san almost trashed the whole place. In the end, we had to give up some of that for the costs of the damages. I let out a big sigh. A really big one..

"Something wrong?" as Lucy noticed.

"The reward.. I was hoping I could earn some for my rent.."  I sighed again, but this time it was a bit softer. I pouted.

"Sorry.." Lucy frowned. I felt guilty all of sudden.

"Uhhh! It's not your fault! Don't apologize." I panicked. Sht. Now I feel bad..

We were on our way back to the guild. When suddenly a chill went through my spine. Again, someone is watching me. The only difference is that this time I feel like I'll be killed if I turned around to look at who gazed at me. I was trembling as I felt like the presence is getting closer and closer. I couldn't take it anymore. I turned my back to see who was gazing at me. I saw no one. Was I just imagining things?

I looked around some more to find no luck at all. I continued to walk and faced front. There.. I saw a sinister look and a menacing grin directed at me. I trembled. This time my body was shaking more aggressively. The only person I fear is Master Hades, but there is one particular person who I don't even dare to look at straight in the eyes. His son, Ivan.

I kept staring at his eyes.. I... I... H-hel..

"(Y/A)!" I turned my attention to Natsu. He looked at me with concern. "Are you alright? You looked pale there awhile ago."

"Y-yeah.. I'm fine. That was nothing." As I tried to reassure them. I looked at where I saw Ivan, but he was gone. I tried to shrug off the feeling that I keep feeling his presence near me.  It feels so close, yet so far.

As soon as we've arrived in the guild, we all went our separate ways. I decided to go home. I don't know why I'm drained. I just feel so tired. I walked straight home. I opened the door to my apartment to see Ivan sitting right in front of the door. Terror was once again sinking into my being. I trembled as I saw his sinister smile more evil than it was before.

"Good Evening!" he appeared right at my back and whispered at my ear. "(Y/N)" I kept trembling in fear, and I started to gulped. Ivan choked me and dragged unto the floor.

"Here's little present from me." He held my head covering my eyes. Darkness. Just plain darkness. Then a moment after, memories started rushing through my head. Piece by piece, things started getting clear to me. Who I was before I became (Y/A). The tears in my eyes started flowing down through my face. Ivan removed his hands.

"I did this, so you would know what would happen if they knew that you are (Y/N)." He said. "But, that's not all. You do know well how impatient my father is, don't you (Y/N)?" Ivan punched me right in my stomach. I coughed and crouched in pain.

"If I were you, do what you're supposed to. If not I will do the job. Even if it means killing the fairies." He grinned. I couldn't think straight, but Natsu came into my mind. Before Ivan left, he looked at me.

"Don't keep him waiting." He grinned again. My body kept trembling. "Or you know what happens." he added.

He left. I didn't move and kept crying. The whole night I didn't move an inch, and just stared into the ceiling. A few minutes before midnight, I stood up feeling empty again. I guess I have no choice. I'll steal Lumen Histoire as soon as possible, then move on. Fairy Tail would be much better without (Y/N). As I've said those in my thought, something in my heart was tugged.

Natsu.

Natsu.

Natsu was the only person on my mind. After those memories flash through my mind, he stayed in my mind.

-Next Day-

Third Person P.O.V

Somewhere in Fiore, Erza and Master Makarov are chatting in a nearby cherry tree.

"Did you find anything about him?" as Makarov looked at Erza.

"Not really. He's not doing anything out of the norm." Erza explained.

"Hmmm." as he looked away and tried to think.

"What's the problem with (Y/A), Master? Do you know him before he joined Fairy Tail?" Erza asked.

"It's the other way around." Makarov scratched his head.

"What do you mean?" Erza looked confused.

"I don't know him, and that's precisely why I want you guys to keep an eye out for him. It's almost like he is after something." He said. "It's just a hunch."

"I'll keep observing him. But, I feel bad spying on him. I mean, he's done nothing wrong." she let out a sigh.

"I'm sorry. But, we have no choice. I will make it up to you guys if I'm wrong in this one." Makarov sat on a bench near the tree. "I heard you were hurt during your first mission. What happened?" Makarov tapped the chair as a signal to invite Erza to join him and have a little chat.

"It seems some dark guild goons kidnapped me." she held her shoulders as tries to reminisce of what happened that time.

"Really? That's strange. I didn't know anyone would want to kidnap, Titania, herself." Makarov laughed.

"But, it's strange though, Master. I don't remember anything at all. Like everything is blank." she said with doubt in her voice.

"Who told you this?" Makarov asked.

"(Y/A) told us. Apparently, he said he was also the one who saw me being beaten up." Erza explained.

"Hmm.." Makarov stopped to think again.

"What wrong, Master?"

"Something tells me that, (Y/A) is not who we think he is." Master Makarov said.

Hello Everyone! I hope you enjoyed this chapter! I guess we are nearing to the end of our story, sadly. Don't worry there still a few chapters before I end this story.

I have a new story that I've just thought of after exams. I actually already have a plot for it (not that complete though), and the genre of this story is love. It's also a fanfiction, but instead of Male Reader as the protagonist, I chose a different approach. I created my own character.
I hope you guys will support my new story, which I plan to start on summer break. Hahaha, but who knows?

Title of the story :

Kuroko No Basuke - My heart
Genre : Fanfiction, Sports, Romance, Drama
