Hey guys, I apoligize for being late on my weekly updates, so I hope this chapter makes up for it. (Honestly, I'm only like 3 hours late for my Sunday dead-line) :P anyway: enjoy.
Chapter 3: Thunder will Rumble and Shake.
Kurai was seriously doubting her plan now. Natsu had kindly walked her home, and she hated doing what she had to do, but it was to repay for all she was given, it was the least she could do.
She looked at herself. She saw herself in the mirror, but behind her eyes she saw the horrors she had witnessed.
She let out a shaky breath. She had to do this. She got ready in the morning, and ate a peach. She quickly went to the guild. Standing outside, she took a hasty breath and plastered a shock, yet a little hopeful face.
She pushed open the doors and stumbled in. The stumble was an accident, she had leaned in to much and fell. Everyone looked at her, especially Natsu.
"I have an announcement, and please bare with me!" She annouced, squeezing her eyes shut. I'm so sorry Natsu! She thought "I think their might be a way to being Lucy back!"
She waited to hear yelling and protests, but everyone was too stun to speak. Erza stood aburtly, knocking her chair over. She watched Kurai carefully. She hoped they did see through her lie.
Natsu stood too, and Gray stood up. They all watched her. Gray was the first to recover his voice. "How?" He asked desperately. She gave then a pained expression. She hurried to the board.
They promised it would be here. She looked for it, everyone's eyes following her. She took a deep breath and went up stairs. Someone gasped. S-Class wizard trials were only for Erza, Gildrats, and Mira, and Laxus only.
She let out a breath if relief as she snatched it off the board. She rushed to the balcony. "Here!" She exclaimed.
"How'd you'd know about an S-Class quest?" Mira whispered, but no one heard as she came running down.
"I spoke to some . . . Spirits, this is the guy. I can't tell you much, just that there's a chance we can get her. If we stop him." Natsu rushed to her. "Natsu," she whispered as he it an inch away from her face. She stopped breathing as his eyes searched in her's. He grabbed the flyer and read over it.
"How do you know?" He asked. She flinched.
"I told you yesterday, I can only give you that answer, but I still don't know the questions. Right now, their broad statments, if I could just get the questions. . ." She said.
"Stop lying," he growled lowly. she flinched. "You say it's about a dragon you can't talk about, you magically know that we can bring Lucy back yet all this 'I can't understand the answer till I know the question' crap. Who are you?" Kurai looked at him and smiled saddly.
"I can't tell you," she said.
"Seems like there's a lot you can't tell me." She took a deep breath.
"Do you want to save her or not?" She saw the strife in his eyes. She hated making him feel bad, for lying to his face, but she had no choice.
Natsu looked at her carefully. Then he nodded real slowly. He looked at Erza and Gray. They came over. He showed them the flyer. Capture some evils man. No reward, no picture, noting other than; "Malus: Dangerous, for only best of wizards." And some unclear directions.
"There's no reward," Natsu said suspiciously to Kurai.
"Exactly, it's a hint. The reward is there if you know where to find it. The reward is Lucy!" She exclaimed.
