Wolf Curse

chapter 1

Okami's P.O.V.

Okami limped into the building, seeing that not a single soul was there, she followed the all to familiar scent of a certain dragon slayer. She followed the scent towards a table in the far corner where not many people were. Noticing how this scent was drawing her toward it, she felt the all to familiar feeling of sadness and loneliness emitting off of it in strong waves. Okami then curled up in a comfy position without disturbing the wounds and peice of wood sticking out of her side from when she hit the tree.

As the guild members started to come into the guild Okami roused and slinked in a wolf-like fashion into the shadows hiding from sight but looking for a certain magic signature. She sat there waiting for the person to come.

Natsu's P.O.V.

Natsu trudged toward the guild in slow movements. As he got closer to the guild he felt something in the air that was not familiar at all yet seemed harmless. He followed it till he caught whiff of a unknown scent. He walked into the guild losing the scent since all the other jumbled scents covered it. Natsu walked over to the table he had started to sit at which was way in the back where no one would bother him, if they even noticed him anymore.

Okami's P.O.V.

Okami lifted her head, ears perked in alertness as she sensed the sadness stronger then ever. She had to contained herself from running up to the person and try to find out what is the source of it all. It was all strange to her, she never was the one to help others and no one ever helped her. She was always alone and never oened up to anyone. 'So why this person?' She pondered it until she noticed that the person was at the table, he was wearing a vest like jacket with only one sleeve, he had trousers that ended just below the knee with open toed sandals and had a scaly scarf aroung his neck. He had salmon pink hair and it was all spiked in a wild manner.

Okami sniffed him and growled quietly, the dragon slayer noticed this but let it slide as something he imagined, at how much sadness was emitting from the dragon slayer because of the other people in the guild.

Third person P.O.V.

Gray was sitting with Lucy, Erza, Lissiana, and Happy at a table discussing about a certain dargon slayer who has not been himself for the past few weeks. "Has he even spoke to you Happy?" Lucy asked Happy, he just shook his head as he looked worried about the way Natsu has been acting. "Nope he hasn't said a single word since that one guild fight, other than that he is either at home, on a solo request, or at that table." Gray let an annoyed huff out, "That Flame-brain is stupid enough to make us worried over something stupid probably."

Erza sat there with a look of intense concentration as she looked at the dragon slayer as he had his head in his arms as he looked outside.

"Lets go on a mission with him and try to find out what is going on." Erza stated leaving no room to argue in her tone as she got up to grab a mission.

Erza grabbed a mission that paid for them to slay some monster that were terrorizing the town and paid a decent amount of jewels.

Natsu P.O.V.

Natsu noticed his old teammates watching him but he just ignored them and decided to go to the woods and train a bit, but as he got up he noticed that something had darted from under his table to the door, not wasting any time he ran after it.

Okami's P.O.V.

Okami sensed the unease building up within the dragon slayer. She seen him getting up to leave. Making a quick plan she darted from under the table toward the door to the forest farthest from them hoping he would follow. As she ran she heard the distinct sound of sandles meeting the cobblestone ground as she ran.

~Back at the guild~

Gray looked back at the table Natsu was at only to see that he was gone once again and he didn't even notice him leave. Gray quickly told Lucy and Happy before he ran out of the guild to look for him. As he ran outside he looked around for the dragon slayer that had left the guild and disappeared...
