A Jerza Story

Chapter 19: Kidnapped

"Again" 

Said Erza looking at Jellal who had fallen back after another failed attempt to try and take down Erza.

"I can't" He replied sweating.

"Don't be a baby"

"I'm not a baby, you're just too strict."

Erza grinned.

"That's not a compliment!" Jellal exclaimed.

"Should've thought of that before asking me to train you"

"I can't believe this is the same person who made me a lunch box." He mumbled.

"Huh?!"

"Nothing...hehe." He said rubbing the back of his head.

After a few more failed attempts, Erza said,

"Let's take a break. You look like you're about to die."

"Where was that sympathy before?!"

"You don't want it? Fine by me."

"No no, I'll take it."

He said forcing a smile.

"Why don't you teach me hacking now?"

"Yeah okay."

They were training at Jellal's apartment since  it a had a big terrace and all the technology needed for Erza to learn.

They went inside and suddenly Erza felt embarrassed for no reason at all. They stood in a spot for a while.

Erza was just about to ask why they were doing so when the floor beneath her suddenly started going downwards.

She was shocked and the sudden movement had made her grab Jella's sleeve.

He grinned,

"It's fine you're not gonna die."

Erza realizing what she had done immediately let go of his sleeve and crossed her arms to keep her balance.

Finally the floor came to a halt. Erza looked at the place before her eyes completely mesmerized.

"Wow." 

The words escaped her mouth before she could stop them.

"I know right."

"No I mean wow, Nerd Layers do exist." Erza teased.

"Hey! You have no idea how hard hacking is."

"It's just typing numbers and words what's so hard?"

Jellal grinned,

"I think you'll know soon enough."

Erza just couldn't think that what was so challenging about hacking but she knew soon enough.

They sat in front of two huge screens and Erza saw numbers and letters she swore had never seen before even though it was English.

After a while she was exhausted more than she ever was while fighting.

After looking at Erza Jellal smirked,

"Let's take a break, you look like you're about to die."

Erza didn't reply, she was too tired, she just said,

"I'm gonna go get some fresh air."

"Okay." Answered Jellal.

Erza went outside and took a deep breath. She smiled and felt that flutter again. She still didn't know why that happened.

She was in deep thought when a black car stopped in front of her. Erza took a defensive stance.

A woman appeared out of the car.

"Are you Erza?"

"What if I am?"

"You'll find out later."

Just then something stuck to Erza's leg, it caught her off guard and did something that caused her an immense headache. Before she could do anything, everything went black.
