When the Rain Falls | A Nalu

Blood

Natsu

"She just disappeared. Where the hell did she go?" I exclaimed.

"She couldn't have gone far, flame for brains." I growled at Gray.

"Gray we need to find her quick." Gray pulled at my collar.

"Don't you think I know that?!" I pulled away from him and fixed my shirt.

"I just hope she's okay..." My thoughts were jumping from one conclusion to the other. And right then, I heard a faint scream in the distance.

"Gray did you hear that?" I sniffed the air.

"Hear wha-"

"Sh!" I took a step closer and continued to sniff the air; vanilla. It was her.

"I found her. Come on!"

Lucy

The guy wouldn't let me go. I was scared, so scared. The one thing I didnt want taken away from. He can have anything else, I need to find a way to escape.

"Lucy!!! Get the hell away from her. Lay one more finger on her skin and I'll shred you." I looked at Natsu and Gray who stood in enterance of the cave. He was engulfed in his red flames, thankfully or else this guy would be dead meat. But I spoke to soon.

"Oh really?" The guy smirked and grabbed my shirt and tore it off. I looked at Natsu, he was transforming into E.N.D. This wasn't good, this guy is going to die. As much as he deserves it, he's still a human being.

"I'm going to kill you." Natsu said dangerously.

"W-wait. I-I can explain." The guy let go of me and backed away like a coward. I sighed a relief.

"No need to."

"Natsu! Calm down man." Gray said, grabbing a hold of Natsus shoulders.

"Don't interfere Gray." He said shrugging his hand off.

Crap. This is great. I'm going to have to stop this again.

"Natsu, stop, we need to go back home. Just let it go." He looked at me and chills ran down my spine.

"Lucy..." His voice made me cringe. My heart thumped in my chest when he started walking my way.

"He touched something that is dear to me and now he's going to pay for what he did." He was right there in front of me. I stared at his figure; wings, horns, claws and scales that covered his arms and face. I felt my body trembled. Was this Natsu? Or is is it E.N.D talking? I flinched when he put his razor sharp claws behind my head to pull me closer.

"Shhh. Don't be scared Luce. It'll be over quick." I couldn't move, I was frozen with fear and I was scared he'd hurt me. I looked at Gray for support but he lipped, "just go with it." I looked back at Natsu and stared into his onyx eyes. It was Natsu. His eyes...
He pulled away from me and smiled.

"I'll be right back." He said softly with his deep, cringing voice. I stood there staring at the ground with tears prickling down my cheeks.

"Wait! Please don't! Ahhgghh!" I flinched when I heard ripping of flesh and bones cracking. This wasn't Natsu. Natsu would never kill someone. Ever. I gulped when a hand touched my back.

"Let's go." In the corner of my eye, I saw red. Like a Burgundy red. It was blood and it covered him. For once in my life. I felt scared. Natsu Dragneel would never hurt me but I didn't know this side of him.
