Under The Full Moon (NaLu)

Chapter 58

Third P.O.V.

Erza walked to the barracks of the children. Two guards were guarding the entrance. Behind Erza were Wendy and Juvia. “Erza, are you sure these children would listen to us?” Asked Wendy. Erza looked back. “Don’t worry about these kids, I trained most of them so I know them. Let’s just hope they still remember me.” She answered.

Wendy nodded. Erza was fast and knocked out the two guards. Juvia was keeping an eye out. Wendy was hiding the bodies, meanwhile Erza took the keys and opened the barracks. “Let’s go,” said Erza when she opened the door. Juvia and Wendy followed.

They closed the door behind them and walked through the hallways. “Where are all the children?” Asked Juvia. Erza looked back. “They are all locked up in different rooms. In each room there are four or five kids.” She explained. “That’s just sick, these children’s are locked up like prisoners.” Wendy said. Erza sadly agreed.

Erza stopped after a while before a door. “In this room are the oldest kids. All children listen to them, so if I convince them they will surely listen  and follow.” Erza opened the door and saw four beds. “Keep and eye out,” whispered Erza and closed the door behind her while she entered the room.

“Muna? Keith?” Erza whispered. But there was no movement. She focused on the other beds. “Lex? Luther? Zorua?” Again no movement. Erza sighed and walked to one of the beds. She wanted to shake one of them, but realized something. Suddenly she felt movement behind her and reacted fast. She dodged a kick and jumped on the bed. From both sides jumped two persons trying to tackle her, but Erza was quick and pinned both attackers on the bed.

She recognized her attackers. “Lex? Luther?” Both kids recognized the voice and looked up. “Erza?” They both said. She looked back and saw three other persons. “Is it really you Erza?” Asked a girl. Erza let Lex and Luther go and got off the bed. “Yes it’s me Muna.” Erza answered with a smile. Muna looked for few seconds more at Erza, but than engulfed her in a hug. Erza smiled and returned the hug. She felt other hugs too from the other kids and smiled. “I’m glad your guys are okay.” She said.

The children let go of Erza and walked back. Muna was a seventeen year old girl with long brown hair. She had dark brown eyes and was small from length. A boy next to her was named Keith. He was a head taller than Muna and had short brown hair. He was eighteen years old and had dark green eyes. He and Muna were a couple. Next to Keith stood two boys. Both were brothers from each other. Both had short blond hair, but Luther was older and taller than Lex. Both had dark blue eyes, Lither was eighteen while Lex was seventeen. And last there was Zorua. She was bit taller than Muna and had short black hair. She had dark eyes and was the youngest. She was sixteen years old. All kids wore a dark uniform with the emblem of grimoire Heart.

“We are so glad to see you Erza,” spoke Muna. “We heard stories from other trainers about your escape.” Said Lex this time. Erza smiled. I escaped indeed like I told you guys. And I promised to come back to save you guys. And this night it will happen.” She said. “Really?” Asked Zorua exited. Erza smiled at the youngest one. “Yes, I’m here with few other members from Fairy Tail and we plan to rescue you all, even your parents.” All kids there face lighted up when Erza mentioned their parents. “But I need your guys help.” Erza said. “Of course we will help you Erza,” said Keith. “You guys need to help us to free all kids and make sure they will stay quiet and calm.” When the signal is there we will escort all of you to the escape route.” Erza explained. “No worries Erza, you can count on us. You did a lot for us and kept your promise, we will gladly help. Right guys?” Muna spoke. Everyone agreed.

“Good,” Erza smiled and knocked on the door. Wendy and Juvia walked inside. “These two are from the same pack, these are Wendy and Juvia.” Erza explained. “Wendy, Juvia these are the kids who will help us. Meet Muna, Keith, Lex, Luther and Zorua.” Erza introduced the kids to her two pack members. Both smiled and greeted the kids.
