One More Time (Fairy Tail FanFic)

Chapter 10 - Family

"Luna" I say shocked. Luna comes dashing towards me, her adorable smile, big beautiful brown eyes and that mesmerizing light pink hair, like her fathers. Every single day, she reminders me more and more of Natsu.

FLASH BACK

3 weeks have  passed since leaving Fairy Tail. While me and Laxus were traveling from town to town, trying to get as far away from Fairy Tail as we could. We ran into a little bit of trouble. We were problem 30 minutes away from the next town, when I started to feel a little woozy. Laxus was walking out in front off me and I could feel my body slowly become weak. It was odd, because just an hour ago, I was feeling so energized.

My body suddenly felt heavy, I started to fumble, but quickly regain my balance, "La-" "Lucy. Stay back." Laxus warns, with his back still to me and his arm stretched out. I stop, but I collapse to my knees. Something was wrong, my body was swaying from side to side. What is wrong with me. I stare blankly down at the dirt road, I can hear Laxus shouting, but for some reason I just couldn't make out what it was. All of a sudden I feel someone strongly grip the side of my shoulders. With all my strength I left my head.

"Lax.....us" A pathetic weak cry seeped out of my mouth. He looked at me so worried and confused. "I don't feel so good." I wince.

All of a sudden I hear what sounded like a stampede surrounding us. Tilted my head to the side, so I was able to see over Laxus's shoulder. A bunch of bandits were standing in front with a smug, prevy look. Then I looked around us to see even more of them.  "She is quite pretty, isn't she boys. We could have a lot of fun with that one. Don't you think?" One of the creepy bandits laughed, as he licked his dry lips. All his deadbeat followers howled and egged him on. I flinched.

That was when something in Laxus shifted. His whole demeanor changed, and I have seen him like this enough to know what was in store. It actually sent a chilling shiver down my spine. He removed his hands from the sides of my shoulder and even removed his coat and draped it over me. With a crooked smile, he dropped his gaze and got back up on to his feet.

"I'll protect you Lucy." Laxus declared, as lighting surged around his body. His spiritual pressure was something else, it was absolutely amazing, with every passing second it grew. Just the sound of it crackling was enough to intimidate those low lives. But just when I see Laxus lunge towards the one of them I blacked out.

TIME SKIP (6hours passed)

===========================================

When I finally awoke, I stared blankly towards the ceiling, . "You're finally awake." I slowly turn my head to the direction I heard Laxus's husky voice. He was leaning back in his chair arms crossed, eyes closed and not even looking at me.

"Where am I?" I asked, as my memory was still gorgy. "The hospital." Laxus answered.

"What happened?" I questioned, as I had no idea what happened after.. "Wait, are you okay?" I quickly sit up,  but I let out a yelp, a sharp searing pain was coming from my stomach. "Ahh" I wince.

In an instant I hear a chair screech along the ground. "You idiot!" Laxus scolds, as he rushes to my side. "Like some bandits can real defeat me." Laxus scuffs.

I also chuckle to myself, as I knew that was true and I was worrying for nothing. "You should be taking it easy. If not for yourself, then for you baby." Laxus blurts out so effortlessly. I look at him in complete shock. At first I was second guessing if what I just heard right now was true. Laxus... did he just say baby? My body was tensing. "Your baby girl, is still alive Lucy" Laxus places his arm around me. My ears did hear it correctly...right...
