Never Forget

When Skies Are Grey

I'm gonna start putting pictures here in the chapters so it can look a bit realistic. :) I think starting the next chapter.

Anyways, here's the reading, guys.

Erza

I don't know what happened but when I got to Natsu and Gray's house, a dark wave hit me and I fell unconscious.

Now, I'm here inside a bedroom.

"W-What in the world? Where am I?" I ask myself, sitting up from bed.

I know that I'm inside a bedroom of Natsu and Gray's house but the atmosphere feels different. 

I get up from bed and walk towards the door. I open it and go outside, walking down the halls.

It feels like I'm walking through dark magic power. I sense great evil and despair here.

But why?

Suddenly, a male voice spoke and I bring my guard up.

"Hello, Erza Scarlet."

"Who's there!?"

"My name is Rogue. Well, Future Rogue. You are in your nightmares. You will be facing your fears and if you fail to make a change and survive, you will repeatedly go again and again."

"What the hell? What have you done with Future Lucy!?"

"Oh, she's currently facing her nightmares right now. Oh, the fear in her eyes of facing the war again is so...satisfying."

"What!? Get her out of her misery, now!"

"Goodbye, Erza. In order to escape your fears, you must do change. Change, Erza."

"W-Wait! Where the hell do I go!?"

The voice didn't say anything back to me and I sigh. I keep walking down the halls and suddenly, darkness pulls me into another room.

I was in a room...with Jellal. He was tied with his arms upwards and he was being beaten by invisible slashes.

"Jellal!?"

"Erza...don't come closer! Please!"

"What? Why not? Here, let me help you!"

"No!!"

I stop myself in my tracks as Jellal spits out blood.

"Jellal!!"

"Erza...please. Don't come...any closer." 

My heart sinks to just see Jellal in this state. No, I'm not gonna let him die!

"No! I won't let you die!"

This...this is one of my fears. Losing Jellal when I could have done something..

"N-No...you must leave."

I grit my teeth and run towards Jellal, trying to untie the rope that's tied around his wrists.

"Erza..."
