Wendy's Pov

He raised his knife in the air then brought it to my chest. Blood was all I could see.

In one second, all the hunters were lying on the ground, dead except for one,who was the leader. I laughed evilly walking to the leader who was struggling to get up. He saw me and started to tremble.

"D-Don't come near me y-you monster s-stay away!"he shouted as sweat started running down his face. I laughed again.

"Didn't you say I'm gonna die? well come and get me,"I said. "If you can...."

He slowly got up from the ground with the knife still in his hand. "I will kill you, I will kill you monster!!"he said and ran towards me, knife raising in the air. My bangs covered my eyes as I smirked,"Tch Pathetic."

"AAAARRRRRGGGGGHH!!"he shouted. Once he was close enough to me, he brought his knife down only to get stabbed instead. His eyes widened when I stabbed him in the heart with the knife that he had.

"H-How did you do that?"he asked before collapsing on the ground; a pool of blood surrounding him. "It's simple,I'm just a servant of the moon,"I answered knowing he was already good as dead. I looked up at the moon before also collapsing.

Erza's Pov

It was Saturday. I put on my boots and went outside, Jellal following behind. He didn't have any work today nor tomorrow so he decided to help me with the housework. We didn't have enough food to cook so we wanted to go to the store. I locked the door and went into the car. He came after me and drove off.

When we reached we went inside and took a trolley. We put different stuff in the trolley like: eggs, rice, sugar, bread, cake and etc. While I was looking at a newly brand cereal, I heard voices that sounded familiar. I looked up and saw the same men from before that insulted me. My eyes widened. I froze and dropped the cereal on the floor.

Jellal noticed and walked towards me panicking. "Erza are you okay?!"he asked. I wanted to reply but I couldn't; it was like my lips were glued. "Erza what's wrong?! tell me!"Jellal yelled and started shaking me but I still never replied. I couldn't. I was so terrified. Luckily we were at the corner of the store so no one couldn't really hear him shouting.

"Erza....please tell me," Jellal said. My hand trembled as I pointed over his shoulder to the men. He turned around and saw them, raising an eyebrow.

"What's wrong, what did they do?"he asked. I still couldn't answer, I was still trembling. Jellal looked into my eyes then suddenly his eyes widened."Are they the ones that insulted you?"he asked. I slowly nodded. His expression changed from surprise to anger.

One of them saw me and smiled.

Wait a minute. . .he smiled?

"Oh look it's the girl from be-" he was cut of when Jellal grabbed his shirt. "Tell me, what exactly did you do to her?" Jellal asked in his deep,scary voice. To tell the truth, I never saw this side of him before. He was always so kind and gentle but now there was this cold aura from him and his eyes were full of hatred.

"Tell me now!"he demanded. The cherry-blossom haired guy started to sweat. "I asked you a question, what did you do?!" Jellal asked. The man shrieked.

"L-Look man, I-I didn't do a-any thing to her y-you can a-ask them,"he stuttered pointing to the men that was standing behind but only to find no one there.

That's weird.

"HUH?! t-they were just s-st-standing.....r-right...."his voice got low and squeaky when Jellal's hovered over him with a colder aura.

"....ther-WOAH!!"he was cut off when Jellal punched him into the face, sending him knocking over the stuff that was on the shelves.  I cupped my mouth and my eyes widened. I was really scared of him now. He walked towards the man and grabbed his face throwing him into other shelves.

The guy was now bruised up with blood running from his mouth. He looked at me and smiled. I frowned.

Why is he always smiling? Even when he's getting beaten up. Why is he not fighting back? Why does it feels like I know him from somewhere but I just can't remember.

I couldn't take it anymore so before Jellal could smash him into the wall,which could probably kill him due to the injuries that were on him, I ran and hugged Jellal tightly, burying my face in his chest. "Erza what are you doing, can't you see that I'm dealing with something here?"he asked a little too harsh.

"I know but please stop,"I said. "What do you mean by stop? wasn't he the one that hurt you?"he asked. "Yes but he also saved me,please stop now, your scaring me, this is not the real you Jellal. The real you is more kind and gentle, please control yourself, I don't want any of this to happen please..."I said tears running from my eyes onto his shirt.

I felt his aura slowly fading away. He lifted my head and our eyes met. His face had softened and the anger in his eyes went away. "I'm sorry if I scared you Erza, it's just that my anger went out of control,"he said. "I know,"I said and he smiled.

"You always seem to understand me Erza and that's one thing I like about you,"he said as our lips meet. It wasn't a long one but it was passionate. We broke from the kiss and stared into each others eyes. This is the Jellal I love. The one that brought joy to my world.

Jellal's POV

We stared into each others eyes. Oh Erza if only you knew that, that was the real me, a beast that cannot be calmed by anyone but you. I wanted to tell you the truth but I can't.

My greatest fear is losing you and I can't let that happen. I now decide not to tell you. I want you all by myself. I know it sounds selfish but no other man is taking you away from me.

The cherry-blossom haired
guy's Pov

I sat on the ground with cuts and bruises, blood still running from my mouth. That man was one hell of a fighter. I watched the two love birds and smiled.

So you finally found someone Erza.......
