Gajeel RedFox and Maid Levy

Rescue Mission

Levy's POV

Okay me and Lucy planned all this out and tonight's the night otherwise my friends will be hanged right before I'm being married off to Jet. It's better to save their lives than my own. They can do much more with escaping than myself. Let's hope this all goes to plan, nothing will go wrong.

"Lev are you ready?" Lucy asked for a third time.

"Yes. Let's do this!" I nod my head.

We slip out my chambers always pausing when we hear footsteps. We had a decent disguise but we could easily be caught out if we make a wrong move. All we're wearing are cloaks and we're carrying more for Gajeel and everyone else.

At last we get to the dungeons, and the guards are fast asleep. It is early morning after all. Lucy takes the keys silently and we slip down the stairs and search through the cages.

"Levy?" A familiar voice whispered. I whipped around and almost cried.

"Gajeel." I stared at the dried blood on his arms and face.

"What are you doing down here?" He stood up reaching his arm through the bars, cupping my face.

"We came to rescue you silly." I laughed weakly.

"You could be killed for this!" Natsu pointed out from across the room.

"So?" I stared at my feet. "You can do more with your lives than my own. You deserve to live."

"Levy your life is just as important." Erza whispered.

"Come on Luce. Let's get them out before he wakes up." Ignoring her kind comment we started to let them out.

They all got out and we handed them their weapons and the cloaks. Lucy led them out, leaving me and Gajeel alone.

"Today's your wedding day." He grumbled.

"It is." I sighed, a few tears falling down my face.

"I love you Levy." He wrapped his arms around me, pulling me in a warm hug.

"I love you too Gajeel!" I cried in his arms.

"I promise we'll rescue you. You're too brave for you own good, you know." He laughed, ruffling my hair.

"I'll be waiting." I wiped my tears and led him through the secret passageway.

Me and Lucy got back to my chambers just as everyone was waking up. I threw myself into bed and Lucy staged it to make it look like she was waking me up. We did it!

Gajeel's POV

"We have less than an hour before she's married! And we have nothing!" Erza yelled pacing the ground up and down.

"Let's just storm the gates!" Natsu yelled.

"That's plan B!" I yelled.

"Who's the Bishop?" Gray asked calmly.

"Jellal!" I snapped and that was it. "We need to get to him before he gets to the wedding."

"You go and we'll get inside the castle another way!" Gray pushes everyone out and I sprint to the village. Jellal is just leaving.

"Gajeel?" He waves and I pull him back inside his house, covering his mouth with my hand.

"Listen Levy is being married off, and we're going to save her. If you don't help us I'll slit your throat right now." He nodded and I let go of him.

"I knew she was being married off and I was hoping you'd come. I know how much she means to you so if you hadn't come to get me, I would've done something on my own."

"You have a plan?" I raise an eyebrow shocked.

"Of course I have a plan." He chuckled quietly. "And now it can work."

"Tell me quickly so you can be escorted without any suspicions. Then I'll tell the gang."

"As you wish."

He told me the plan and I'm shocked he could come up with something so deviously cunning and brilliant. I rush out his back-door and meet everyone inside the castle. It takes a minute or two for me to explain the plan and they all grinned. This was going to work and as it's an outdoor wedding, it makes it that much more perfect.

We all scatter in the hiding places that he suggested and we all have a decent view of the wedding. I'm trying to keep my cool but seeing Levy in a wedding dress has set my heart aflame.

"Now do you Jet take Levy as your lawful wife. To have and to hold. In sickness and in health. For rich or for poor." Jellal sneaks me a wink and it's showtime.

"I do." The orange haired man leered at Levy.

"Now do you Levy take Jet as your lawful husband. To have and to hold. In sickness and in health. For rich or for poor."

"I-I-I." She stuttered nervously.

"Good afternoon ladies and gentleman!" I yell and jump from the side of the altar.

"I don't." Levy exclaims and rushes to my side. José from the sidelines grabs her and holds a sword to her neck.

"You aren't going anywhere madam! Bishop marry her now!"

"She can't be married if she doesn't want to." Jellal smirked.

"If I say she's to be married she'll be married!" José drew the sword closer to her neck, as she struggled in his grip.

"What's this feeling?" Jet collapses to his feet holding his stomach.

"It burns!" José dropped to his knees clutching his stomach also. Levy kicked him and ran into my arms.

"I'm sorry we took a while." I hugged her closely.

"It's alright! I knew you'd come!" She cried in my arms, leaning up, kissing me. "I love you Gajeel!"

"I will become King!" José yelled, slowly getting to his feet and Jet following after him. They both drew swords and a fight commenced.

"Please stay out the fight Levy. I don't want to see you hurt." I watched Levy climb down the altar and hide behind a table.

"YOU WILL NEVER GET THE GIRL GAJEEL REDFOX!" Jet lunged at me our swords making an electric spark. "NOT FOR ASL LONG AS I LIVE!"

"I guess you won't be living long then!" I chuckled as our swords clashed.

"WHAT ON EARTH IS GOING ON HERE JOSÉ!" An unexpected voice yelled snapping us all out of it.
