Time Changes Everything

Dragon's Play

   Lucy found out quickly that day that her teammates were complete morons. The only one who didn't think with his fists was Rogue, something Lucy didn't find surprising as she watched the three powerhouses charge into the dark guild's base and basically tore down the house. They had the whole thing in lock down and Lucy didn't have to even lift a finger. Upset at the lack of fighting she got to do, she whipped Sting in a sparring session soon after they had gotten back to their hotel. 

   The blonde found Sting irresistible in almost every other way. His brash nature and quick thinking contrasted so well with Lucy's careful and methodical planning. She got him to yield within minutes of their spar, something Lucy held over his head, even now as they were all out eating to celebrate their easy win. Lucy's eye sparkled in happiness as she sat back and listened to the bickering going on with Laxus and Sting, both of who were arguing over something Lucy didn't care to find out. She could tell whatever it was, was very important to the two. 

   "You have it all wrong Power pole, Mira couldn't be bigger in the boob department. Lucy could knock someone out with those knockers." Lucy's jaw dropped, she couldn't believe the gall of the blond. 

   She sat and listened a bit more before she interrupted the two. Right as she was about to butt in, Rogue the only silent one in this dispute spoke up. 

   "I'm going to have to side with Sting on this one Laxus. There is no way Mira has larger breasts. It's simple math. Mira's breasts don't swing as freely as Lucy's do when in fighting. I have seen both of them go up in battle and there can't be much of a difference in bra support for someone of their size so with that logic it is safe to say that Lucy is the clear winner in this sense." Rogue's clear breakdown of the entire argument as well as the facts he brought into it made her head spin. 

   "Oh you've got to be kidding me. I sit back and relax for two minutes and all of you start discussing my boobs? What in Gods name even brought you to this topic?" Lucy spoke after about a second of silence, her earlier anger roaring back to life. 

   "I didn't jump in on this shit show Bunny, don't include me." Gajeel raised his hands in surrender. 

   "That's not true, you showed us that picture you to-" Sting's mouth was covered by the large hand of the iron slayer, a small but nervous grin on his face. 

   "A what? My fist in your face when you guys brought this up? How right you are Light night!" Gajeel's face was flushed a light pink, making Lucy slightly curious. 

   She turned to Rogue, watching as his normally pale face flushed red as she stared at him. All the male did was shrug as she turned to him, not ready to throw either of the two mages under the bus. By the time she turned to Laxus, her face was flushed red in anger. The behemoth looked nonchalant about the whole thing but did in fact say what she was currently looking for. 

   "Gajeel had an issue of Sorcerer's Weekly with him, you were being featured and it was the one where you were posed naked in that beach set up." Laxus' straight forward response made Lucy's temper start to escalate. 

   "Why on Earthland would you be carrying that around with you?!" Lucy's eye flashed gold as she spun to the now sweating iron dragon. 

   "I'm a male, Bunny. We got needs!" Gajeel covered his eyes with his hands as Lucy stalked towards him, both of them now out of the booth and standing in the isle of the restaurant.

   "I'm going to give you to the count of three to get your tin can out of those doors before I come and hunt you down personally." Lucy's deathly calm voice sent shiver's down everyone's spines and she began counting. 

   Before she could even get to two, Gajeel was already out the door and down the street. With a quirk of her lips and the last number being called, she smiled sweetly at the three remaining slayers before she shot out of the restaurant, already gaining on the much larger male. Using her sharp sense of hearing and smell she was able to track him all the way into the woods, where his scent started to mix with the wildlife. Cursing that he was smarter than a lot of her guildmates, she stalked into the woods, a grin on her face as her eye scanned among the trees. A few deer running around in the forest caught her eye and she headed that way, knowing a deer wouldn't run unless startled.

   "Come out come out, wherever you are~" She sung, her ears taking in all the sounds around her. 

   A rustle of a bush, the shaking of leaves in the trees against the wind, she could hear it all. The heartbeats of animals close enough to her, never once in her life did she feel as connected with nature as she did then. Coursing with adrenalin, the female found herself enjoying this, almost like a game of cat and mouse, except she was hunting a delicious male.

   "When I find you Gajeel, I'm going to eat you alive." The purr in her voice sent shivers down the male's spine. 

   She wasn't too far away from him now, but any sudden movements would be the death of him. He could only hope that something caught her off guard, or his scent spread enough along the wind that it would take her in another direction. He could just barely see her between the trees and leaves and by Gods when he did his blood began to boil. The large smirk on her face and the way her eye flashed between her normal brown and her golden color had his inner dragon rumbling. Her pupil was narrowed into a slit as it scanned the area, her nose tilted towards the sky as she took in the scent that she was following. So much for hoping. 

   Gajeel watched with bated breath as her head snapped up in his direction and her eye scanned his tree before it fell on his form crouched down upon the limb. Her smirk spread into a grin as she began to stalk towards his tree, a purr rumbling from within her chest as she began to climb the tree. The closer the blonde got to her prey the more her head began to swim. It was as if she were lost amongst a sea and she was adrift in the current that was her brain. 

   Before Gajeel could act, Lucy was bounding up the branches with a skill that he didn't know she possessed. Within the blink of an eye she was standing over him, a feral look in her single eye as she regarded him.

   "I've got you now little dragon." She purred as she descended on him.
