Levy's Nightmare

Sleep-Over

We are brought back to present time where Levy is still hiding behind a tree and Gajeel is sniffing her out.

After three minutes, he was bored and left the area, so Levy took that chance to sneak back into the guild.

She found Natsu kneeling on the floor while Erza scolded him.

Levy slowly walked inside of Makarov's room.

When she entered she found him reading a book about classic Poker and other games like Spit and Squares.

Levy bowed. "Sorry to interrupt you again, Master, but I have a question.

She sat on the wooden stool in front of his desk and waited for a response.

"I would assume this question is about the Aerial Library." Makarov murmured as he saved his page and placed his book down.

She nodded.

"Here," he said. " Take this poster."

He handed Levy the poster he first showed her.

"That poster has directions on the back. "

Levy reached for the poster and turned it around only to see a blank page.

"There's nothing on it." she pondered.

Makarov reached to the top right drawer of his desk and spread out a job request.

"To see the directions you need to complete this job." He ordered. "As a reward you get a tube of Liquid Crystal. If you drop some of it on the back of this poster-"

"The map will be revealed. " Levy cut off.

"My question was, Master, should I go with somebody?"

Makarov closed his eyes and sat in silence, occasionally murmuring a few thoughts.

Finally the silence was interrupted by

"Yes, you should."

"Who should I take?

The guild master chuckled.

"You know who." He said as Levy left the room.

Levy went home.

After everything that happened, she was exhausted. The last thing wanted to do was see Gajeel, but now she had to.

"It can wait." she sighed. " I'm going to bed"

Levy plopped onto her bed and drifted off.

**********************************
"Are you sure this will get her attention Lily?"

"Yea I think so. It works for Natsu. "

Two figures opened Levy's window and tip-toed to her bed. There enough space for one more person.

The largest figure looked at the other.

"Are you sure PantherLily?"

"I'm positive Gajeel."

Gajeel nodded and climbed into Levy's bed. It was a lot softer than just about everything in their house.

Lily flew to their feet and got to sleep.
