The Dragon and The Fairy{Book 2 in the Dragons Love Affair}[A GaLe Tale]

Chapter 7

Levy P.O.V

It has been a month since Gajeel started accompanying me to see Mavis. There has been no sign of Zeref but she said not to let our guards down.

I was sitting at the bar in the guild reading when Mira approached me. "Levy can you do me a favor?" "Sure Mira, what's up?"

She handed me a shopping list and I smiled. "No problem!" I took it and lept off the bar stool. I walked outside and looked around, spotting Gajeel high in a tree. I flew up to him and smiled when I saw him sleeping.

He has been working so hard between protecting me and working on his magic. I will let him sleep, shopping shouldn't take me to long.

I flew towards town, keeping my cloak pulled tight. I felt like I was being watched as I shopped, so I made sure to be quick. As I re entered the forest I realized I was surrounded.

A figure stepped forward in front of me. My eyes widened and my blood ran cold. Zeref.

"Come quietly Miss.McGarden." was all he said. I glared at him. I glanced around trying to think of an escape route. Last time they captured Lucy with ease an she was stronger than me. I may not be fast enough.

"Solid Script:Smoke Screen!" the word exploded and smoke filled the area. I dropped the bags and shot into the air and above the trees. I flew as fast as I could but I was in no luck. A blinding pain hit my shoulder and tore through the thin membrane of my wing. I was sent painfully to the ground.

Gajeel P.O.V

'Stupid shrimp, she should have woken me up!' I thought angrily as I flew through the forest. Mira had asked if Levy was with me when I came into the guild.

I could barely make out her smell of ink as I went, she was here not too long ago. I heard crashing in the trees and stopped, looking up. I saw a streak of blue and rushes with out thinking.

I caught it as it broke through the trees. The small fairy was whimpering and I smelt burning flesh. I saw her shoulder was burnt and blistered and her wing was torn.

A growl escaped my throat as I saw the damage done to the fragile girl in my arms. I looked up as I heard twigs snapping and saw we were surrounded.

"Oh look! It's our dragon!"A woman said. I glared at her."Your dragon?" she laughed. "Yes out dragon. You got away from us though after we had control. We were worried thinking you would die from the spell like the other black dragon." She said.

I tensed. "Other black dragon?" She nodded. "Yes, he was older. He was too strong and we put too much power into the spell and we accidentally killed him. Metalicana I think it was? But that doesn't matter. Now we have you and the girls! Zeref will be pleased!"

My blood ran cold. The old man, dead? No he was stronger than that right? He was still alive right? They were just saying that to mess with me.

My arms tightened around the small bluenette and I tried not to shake. A growl grumbled through my clenched teeth. I glared at the woman, I let loose a loud roar, sending a tunnel of metal towards her. She was thrown back and the others backed away in shock.

I held Levy with one arm and turned the other to iron. I sent it flying into another figure and swept it sideways, taking out the group. Before they could get back up I took of towards the guild.

I held Levy close and kicked open the door, the others gasping in shock at her. I took her to the infirmary, swatting away Jet and Droy as they buzzed around my head. Mirajane followed me as I set Levy on one of the beds. She patched up her shoulder and wing as I sat on the other side of the bed.

She whimpered in pain as she clutched at the bed sheet. "I know Levy I'm sorry. Just hang on for a few more minutes." Mira whispered to her. I looked at her pained face and the tightness in my chest that started when I heard about my dad, got worse.

I couldn't lose her too, she was all I hand left.
