I plopped down on my bed, what had just happened?
Those weren't my actions, and I remember my voice sounding deeper and more stern.
Had the demon taken over my soul already? No it couldn't have, I still have my free will and I don't feel anything different.
Did it though? It could have happened but the mist must have been protecting me all of this time. Preventing the demon inside of me from causing any harm to my personality.
I jumped off of my bed and quickly ran over to my bookshelf and pulled off the oldest book that had sat on the shelf.
"How the Angel slayer came to be...." I whispered and opened it up to the first page.
I read a few paragraphs in the little moonlight that had come from my window and grabbed an empty notebook and a pencil and started taking notes.
"If you're reading this then our mission has been completed."
I read on and it appears to be one of the few witches that survived the Angel slayer.
I continued to read the large book throughout the night and continue to take notes.
Natsu's POV
I sat at the bar stool and stared down at my empty plate and thought about Lucy, "Hey Natsu have you heard anything from Lucy?" I heard Mira ask.
I looked up and saw her drying a beer mug with a white rag,
"No I haven't seen her since yesterday." I replied.
"Hmm maybe someone should see if she's sick or something, it's the middle of the day and no one has seen anything from her." She said and continued her work.
"Maybe she has the stomach flu, oh gosh imagine how much pain she's in." I heard Stacy suggest.
"No it can't be that." I mumbled.
"Well anyways I'm going on a mission, there's a job on the board to put the guild that beat me up in jail." I turned around and faced her.
"Really? You should really take someone considering you lost to them the last time." I said.
"Oh I am, I'm going with Wendy and Romeo!" She smiled and walked over to their group, jeez she looked so happy after she had decided to join the guild. Apparently her and Wendy had become friends after she had healed and Romeo joined in with them. They formed their own team and yeah Wendy goes on more missions with them now than she does with me, Ezra, Lucy, Gray, and Happy.
Erza walked over to us looking like she had been searching from something, "Has anyone seen Lucy at all today?"
"No but me and Natsu were just saying someone should go check her apartment." Mira said.
"I'll go." I said and got up.
"Hm? Natsu after what happened last night I think she would prefer for you to come through the door." Erza said.
"WHAT ARE YOU TALKIN ABOUT LUCY DOESN'T MIND ME COMING IN THROUGH THE WINDOW AT ALL!" I argued.
She shrugged, "I'm just saying that she might be a little tired that's all."
"Yeah, Erza is right, don't barge into her room shouting," Mira said, "If you could just walk into her room quietly and find her sleeping sound asleep on her comfy bed. You look at her and the first thing you notice is that she isn't wearing a shirt, your first thought is to look away but you looked at her beautiful blonde hair and decide to gently wake her up." She said beginning to look dreamy.
"That's creepy." I said.
"What Mira is trying to say is, don't blow it Natsu, this is your one chance so don't blow it for all of us." Erza said cutting Mira off before she could say anything else.
"What are you guys saying? It's not like I'm asking her on a date or anything." I said and began to walk to the doors.
"DON'T BLOW IT!" They shouted and I began to run like my life depended on it.
Jeez they were acting crazy, I had to get out of there before anything else like that happened. I couldn't let Gray see them doing that to me, or else he'd make fun of me for liking Lucy.
I did like her, but it was only like a friend. I think. Yeah she was a bit rude at time- but I had a feeling that liked her more than a friend. Ugh it confused me.
Why couldn't Erza do this and not me? If what Mira said was right I'd probably find her sleeping somewhere, I'd ruin my chances for me and everyone- wait. Everyone? What did that mean? Did everyone think that me and Lucy were- no they couldn't have. Could they?!
I could feel myself beginning to blush redder than Erza's hair could ever be.
I shook my head and began focusing on something different.
Happy....
Happy.
HAPPY
OHMYGOD
HAPPY!
DID I LOCK HIM INSIDE AGAIN?!
I MUST HAVE FORGOT TO CHECK AROUND BEFORE LEAVING!
THE POOR CAT
