Zervis: AMITY (Book 3)

Chapter 1: The Vanishing Truth

Chapter 1

Last time...

Normal POV

'Natsu has been looking for Zeref non stop after what happened. He looked for him high and low. He tried the company Zeref owned but the people who worked there said that Zeref never..ever worked there...in his entire life. These people must be playing a joke. He's a billionaire. How can people not know him?' Says Zera.

At that sentence, Lady Porlyuska looked away. She knew something that others didn't.

'Natsu even went to Alvarez resort but the weirdest was yet to come. When Natsu got there, the resort was a total mess. Like, a haunted house. Everything was wrecked. It felt like the resort hasn't been touched by humans in hundreds of years. No employee was left on the island. It was very mysterious. Natsu doesn't know what's happening. Here's the crazy part, Alvarez Island...doesn't even exist on the map. Look at this'

Zera tried typing in the resort name but the internet had ZERO results. 'It's like the island never existed. It's nowhere online. Did someone take it down?'

Mavis couldn't believe what she was hearing. Was this some kind of joke?

'After further investigation, Nothing came up. It's weird. It's like nobody remembered who Zeref is at all. I had to see it for myself, Mavis. At school, everyone acts as though nothin is wrong. Nobody is talking shit about you since today. I tried testing them like asking questions about you...and do you know what people said?

It was either you dropped out of school...

You caught a disease...

Moved to a new school...

Or just left without notice...'

'I don't understand. Is this a joke? Because it is not hilarious at all.' Lady Porlyuska said. Her observation went serious.

'Does...does Lucy know about this?' Mavis questioned.

'I think so but she doesn't believe me...or Natsu..She thinks that people had gotten over the drama and moved on...' Zera rubbed her bottom chin.

That night...

"Strange...how is this possible?" Mavis sat on her bed and rubbed her temple. Everything was getting crazy...or was she the one going crazy? She wished she knew answer.

All of a sudden, the room temperature dropped. Coldness filled the air. Mavis didn't even turn on the air conditioner. "Where is this cold coming from?" She noticed the window was covered with frost. Is it winter time already? Then the lights went off. Must be a black out but looking outside, the other houses had their lights on so it couldn't have been that. She tried standing up to look for a flashlight.

"Maybe...Lucy forgot to pay the Electric bill?" She thought.

A gust of cold air blew right behind her. Goosebumps formed on her skin. The hair behind the back of her head was standing.

"Hu-" Her mouth was covered shut. She shivered at the coldness of the hand that covered her.

"Mavis..."
