Why him? (Natsu x reader)

From Everything To Nothing

" Hey Y/N, are you able to take this S-class mission that needs to be done right away? You're the only one I know who can get this done in time." 

"Yeah sure, Sting"

And so that's what she did. Y/N went on the important S-class mission and got it done in no time. The clients were appreciative of Y/N's work and paid her generously for dealing with the threat. At first, the girl refused such a big sum of money. But the clients wouldn't stop until she accepted their offer to double the reward for her. So she ended up with double the reward she had first anticipated. 

Y/N's Pov

I slump down on the train seat. Exhausted after completing my most recent mission. I knew it was an S-class mission but damn was it hard. Didn't help that Sting put me under the impression I had to get it done in record timing.

I swear I'm going to beat his ass when I get back

I let out a small chuckle. At least it will be nice to get back to the guild and rest for a bit. I look out the window of the train and watch as the beautiful landscape passes by. How I would love to get a break and just explore those mountainous areas. 

I let out a long breath and just relax in my seat. I wait as a calm darkness envelopes me and takes me to a more peaceful place.

(Time skip brought to you by Leo flirting with all the girls)

I was gently shaken to consciousness by one of the train workers. Nodding my head in thanks I walk off the train and onto the station. As I step onto the platform, I stop and stretch. Sighing as I hearing satisfying pops all over my tense body. I start walking out of the station. 

As I reach the streets, I feel a nice cool breeze of the afternoon hit me. I stand there and let it take over my body and relax it. I look forward and continue walking back to my guild.

As I walk along the path towards Sabertooth, people begin to rush past me. And that's when it hit me. The smell of smoke clouding the air. I look up at the sky to see where it is coming from, my eyes widen in fear as I realise the smoke is coming from the sabertooth guild building.

I pick up my pace and sprit to the building. My lungs burning and the smoke not making it any better. My arms ache and my legs are screaming at me to rest, but I push through the pain, determine to reach the guild.

Everywhere in my body hurts. Arms trembling, knees shaking, breath ragged. I stumble toward the doors of my aflame guild building, praying that nobody is inside. I stop in front of the doors and place my hand on the door handle. As I begin to turn the handle, a huge blast erupts from the building, shattering windows and doors. The force of the explosion has me flying back into the wall of another building. I hit the ground with such for that darkness starts to eat away at my consciousness.  

I can't move.

It's almost like I'm paralyzed. 

My eyes frantically dart around for some sort of help, but by now everyone would have evacuated the area

"Help" I choke out pathetically. But it was at that moment a figure emerged from the burning guild building with someone flung over their shoulder. I immediately identified the person over the figure's shoulder to be Sting. I let out a relieved cry as the rest of my guild were carried out of the building. But my eyes widen as I noticed the guild mark on one of the mysterious figure's neck. 

"No", I whispered, "NO!" 

Everything went dark.
