Your P.O.V.
While Laxus dragged me down a hall, I realized I was no longer wearing a wet towel I was in A long baggy shirt and a shorts.
What the..
I didn't bother asking, Laxus already seemed to have something on his mind.
Should I ask him?
When it's the right time Y/n... no now..
"Are you ready to go Pet?" Laxus asked leaning against a door frame.
Pets hair was ruffled up, she had dark bags under her dark brown eyes, and she gave a weak nod.
"You look awful! What happened to you!?!" I asked.
"Sting and Rogue is what happened." She said, lazily grabbing a bag that was beside her.
Pet flung it on her shoulder.
"What do you mean?" I asked.
"They kept me up ALL night. Interrogating me. B*stards." She huffed, and wobbled over to us.
She suddenly handed her bag to me, and stepped back.
She mumbled something, making ice particles appear on the palms of her hands.
"What are you-" I stopped talking form shock when Pet let out a battle war cry and slapped her self on her cheeks.
"OK! I'm ready!" She chirped, grabbing the bag out of my hands and skipping down the hall, past Laxus and I.
I looked at Laxus but he didn't seem to me affected by what just happened.
He seemed... distant...
Laxus's P.O.V.
Gramps was right.
Images of our argument filled my mind..
Flash back
"Laxus my boy." Gramps suddenly called.
Slowly I turned my head to that old man, setting down my beer on my table.
"What?" I asked.
"Follow me." He said jumping off of the counter he sat on, hesitantly I got up, stealing a glance at Y/n who was laughing with guild members.
I than quickly followed after Gramps.
He lead me to the back of our guild.
"I take it you'll leave in a few weeks or days with your team to start training?" Gramps asked, his back turned to me.
"Yeah. Why?" I asked, just wanting to get to the point.
Out of no where his hand grew and squashed me to the ground.
"Aurgh! What the hell!" I hissed confused on why he was doing this.
"You wish to protect her?" He asked now looking at me.
"Who??!" I asked confused.
"Y/n of course!" He said, and released me.
My ribs felt broken..
I gave a death glare at Gramps, and quickly got off the ground.
"Of course, if she needs protecting." I growled rubbing the back of my head.
"You can't protect her. Your too weak." Gramps huffed.
"I'm not weak old man!" I hissed.
"You didn't expect my attack so how are you going to expect an attack on Y/n, if you can't even expect an attack on yourself?" Gramps argued.
..he doesn't know what he's talking about.
"Whatever, she can protect herself anyway. I'm not pathetic so if she needs help I'll help her." I growled and began to walk off.
"Suite yourself, but I sense something WILL happen when you go to train. Prevent it as much as you can.. protect Y/n. If you can, hopefully your not that weak." He said.
My body started emanating lightning, as I gritted my teeth.
"Don't call me WEAK." I spat, kicking a nearby tree, and cutting it clean.
It fell over almost immediately after kicking it.
No other words were said as I trudged back into the guild hall.. but his words stuck with my for some reason.
Why?
~~FLASH BACK OVER!~~
I felt dizzy so I leaned against the wall, pressing the palm of my han don my forehead.
"Laxus!?! Are you ok!?!" Y/n yelped, worriedly.
I nodded, and fixed my posture.
A concerned look was glazed over her face, "I'm fine.. really.. just, tired." I lied with a smile.
She didn't seem to be won over but nodded.
While we walked down the hall to catch up with Pet, Y/n out of no where gripped my hand, intertwining her little fingers with mine.
I was surprised, shocked even.
She just looked up at me and gave me one of her adorable eye closed smiles.
"You were shaking." She said in her cute innocent ways.
Stop Laxus. Don't say she's cute and adorable, even though it is VERY true!
But.. I was shaking?
I didn't even realize it!
"There you two are!! HURRY UP!!" Pet called flailing arms.
She stood by the big guild doors that lead to the outside.
Y/n, still while holding my hand, started running to the doors, I was dragged behind her.
When she got to Pet they both tried to push open the doors, but tu didn't work.
I moved them aside and shoved them open, letting the cool breeze run at me.
This feels... great~
Y/n happily skipped outside but than stopped, with a frown.
"How do we get back to our training sight?" She asked turning to Pet and I.
We looked at each other, than to Y/n.
"Same way we got here. Let's run." I said simply.
"Alright.. ICE DRGAON ROAR!!" She yelled sending a trial of ice below her, she skated along it but almost seemed scared... why?
Pet shrugged and did the same, I zapped around.
This...will take a while.
~~TIME SKIP~~
We finally made it back to our training/ camp site, we were all low on energy.
Ever, Bixlow, and Freed said they were worried sick about us but since we were low on energy they would make us food.
Y/n cuddled up to my chest, her limp body felt frozen.
Yes she's an ice dragon slayer, but she's actually pretty warm most of the time.
So her feeling cold was weird.
"Y/n.. can you tell me what they meant.. saying you destroyed villages?" I asked making her shoot her head at me.
A panicked look on her face was as clear as day.
"...at first to be honest, I had no idea what they were talking about.. but.. this.. I don't know memory flash back I had explained a bit... I had no control over my body.. and there were other girls with us!
Pet was even there.. a nature or earth girl, a fire girl and a Galaxy type girl..." she said.. was she, afraid?
Her body trembled, making me wrap my arms around her trembling limp body.
She stooped trembling and continued.
"I was in a village, fire and blood everywhere when the Galaxy girl said people had escaped so we must hunt them down.
I didn't want to do this.. but yet. I did. I used some kind of power to make ice appear up my feet at every step I take, so I skated or glided down it.. and soon a mother and a daughter were there and..and..I...I..." she was interrupted by loads of sobs.
"I didn't want to!" She sobbed.
I pulled her tightly to my chest, trying my best to calm her down.
She sobbed into my chest, as I drew circles on her back.
"Shh..it's ok..."I whispered soothingly in her ear.
She seemed to calm down at this.
Her sobs turned into cries which turned into sniffles.
"I'm sorry.." she whispered looking up at me with her now red swollen eyes.
Bixlow, Freed and Ever were off somewhere making food while Pet was resting in her tent.. we were alone outside.
"There's nothing to be sorry about.." I hushed her, pressing my forehead up against hers.
A small smile made its way on to Y/n's lips, as did mine.
We were leaning in, our lips.. almost touching..
"FOODS READY!!" Bixlow yelled.
"Food, food,food!" Chanted his babies.
I growled pulling my head back, he ruined our almost kiss.
Way to cockblock Bixlow.
I was..so close...
So close.
