Light of the Dragons

Busted

I know I went really fast into the whole story line, but I wanted to get right into it instead of drawing out the story line. Thats what I did for my first book. So I tried something different, I don't know which I like better. But I do liketo hear your feed back!

I dedicate this chapter to Cryptic_Eyes! For being the best writer ever!

**********************************

Natsu's POV

The last thing I remember was everything was spinning, then Erza's face hovering over mine that menacing grin piercing my soul. Then I woke up on the warm stone walk of a distant place. I was free, awake, alive! I jumped up, throwing my arms in the air.

"Natsu, you are drawing a crowd." Erza stated flatly.

What crowd? No one was even looking at me! Erza...she could be so over dramatic sometimes. Putting my hands behind my head, I looked down to see Gajeel still out of it at my feet.

"Ha! You should see your face!" I covered my mouth, with my hands trying not laugh.

"Like your one to talk, hot head!" I heard my "friend" behind me say.

"Say that again popsicle stripper!" I slammed my head against his.

"What? Flame brain! I said nothin'!"

"Are you two fighting?" Erza's flashed.

We cringed and swung our arms around the others neck and started to a t like best friends.

"But honestly, you guys really need to come up with new come-backs." She sighed.

I released Grey, giving him one last dirty look, he wasn't my best friend, he never would be. Lucy was, she always would be! Lucy wasn't mean or angry like Grey and she didn't strip...well most of the time. Also she always smelled so amazing, Grey just smelled like misty ice. Or damp clothes, if he was wearing any.

"So where is the guild from here?" Gajeel was rubbing the side of his head, now awake from all the commotion.

"Well, the map says it should be at the edge of the town, that way." Erza inspected a map with her specticals.

"Erza, where'd the map come from?" I asked.

"There was a gift shop over there." She pointed with her head.

"Well what are we waitn' for? Lets go!" I threw my arm in the air and started to run in the direction Erza had pointed. But my scarf was caught by something, choking I looked back to see...Happy?!

"Happy, what are you doing?" I gasped.

"You cant charge in this time, not what happened to the guild...and Lucy. I wont let you! They are too strong." My blue cat looked on the verge of tears.

This took me back, Happy had never told me not to do something, he was always encouraging me to do more. Never stop and think. First the master, now Happy. I really had to take these guys seriously. After all the guild had never been taken out like that and they were just three guys!

Happy let go of my scarf and I kneeled down to his height, he wouldn't look at me.

"Alright."

Suddenly his face turned from surprise to joy.

"Thanks Natzu!" He jumped and hugged me.

"Well this is such an emotional moment, why don't we get going?" Gajeel snuffed.

It was only then when I realized that everyone was starring at us.

"Hee, yep!" I jeered.

Mira's POV

"Lucy, you have to rest! Stop moving!" Mira chased after the blonde. She was out of her bed and running to the masters office.

But she ignored her and kept running. The only reason she was getting away from her was that Mira had people constantly crowding her asking questions of what to do and where the toilet paper was!

Lucy was half crawling up the stairs, holding the handrail in a death grip. Before I pushed my way out of the mob she was in Masters office.

I wasn't going to take this anymore, no more Mrs. Nice Girl. Green and purple flames covered my body as my Satan Soul took over my body. The crowd gasped and dispersed immediately.

"Thats more like it." I held my claws up like they were perfectly pampered nails. She dispelled into her normal white hair and red dress, running after Lucy.

She knocked on the Masters door, hoping that he would answer.

"Come in." She heard his rough, calming voice.

She grasped the golden handle and pushed the door open, inside was master sitting on top of his desk criss-cross-applesauce and Lucy sitting in the chair opposite of him looking out of breath and sickly.

"Lucy!" Mira gasped, at her side in an instance. "You just made your fever worse, no more action for you!"

"No...I...have...to say...this." Her words were between shaky breaths.

"Go on child." The Master said calmly.

"Master!" Mira jabbed.

"First...I have to ask," Lucy continued, one eyes clasped shut in pain. "Did Natsu come to you earlier?"

"Why, yes he did. He asked me if he could go on a mission. I said no, in fact I forbid him from going." Master answered.

Mira gasped in shock, had Natsu disobeyed a direct order from the Master? Did they go on the mission, despite what Master said?

"Master..." Mira dreaded having to break the news. "Natsu, Erza, Grey and Gajeel all left earlier. No one knows where they went, it is evening now and they haven't returned."

"WHHAATTT?!!!" Masters form grew until he was too big for his tiny office. Mira cowered in fear, while Lucy stayed in the chair breathing heavily.

"I...know where they went." Lucy gaped.

Master somehow managed to settle his anger.

"They went to get Wendy back." He answered her statement.

Lucy nodded.

"Those idiots..." Mira sighed.

"Those idiots are going to get themselves killed." Master huffed.

Lucy's eyes flashed.

"No! They cant die! Please, we have to help the, somehow!" Out of nowhere all her strength returned and she grabbed the Masters shirt, only to be drained and slump to the floor.

"Not to worry Lucy, I will send a team out to help them. Meanwhile you must rest. Mira will you?" He asked.

Nodding, she picked up Lucy by her shoulder and half carried her back to her bed. Where she had a restless sleep.
