The Fight

Gate of the Heavens

Levy's POV

"Hold him down!" Yelled Exendo.

"Heartfillia! The syringe!" He yelled again.

Lucy passed the syringe to Exendo. I was holding on to Gajeel's arm while the rest held him down by his other limbs. Gajeel continued to struggle.

London had been...well..killed...by Juvia. She had used a water spell to drown him..

"1...2...3!"

The syringe entered Gajeel's arm who let out a grunt. After a few moment he was unconscious. I panicked.

"WHAT DID YOU DO?!" I screamed.

"Relax. He'll wake up in a few moments it was the only way to get him out of my da-" Exendo stopped talking as he saw his dead father's body laying behind me. Guilt rushed over everyone.

"Dad's control.." he finished.

Everyone gathered around behind Natsu and Lucy. I picked up Gajeel and made way to them as well. Heavy breathing frim Gajeel was all that was heard for a few moments.

"Well...guess we should go destroy that gate, huh?" Exendo said clearly sad about his father's death but somehow he looked happy?

Lucy took a few steps towards Exendo and stopped when they were close enough. Lucy then hugged Exendo to comfort him. Natsu, who was beside me, let out an annoyed sigh. I looked back at Juvia and Wendy who just softly giggled. Gray, Erza and Natsu were busy staring down Lucy. Where is Happy?

I looked in front of me and saw Happy making his way to Lucy and Exendo.

"You okay?" Lucy said. Still hugging him. Heh...wonder what Natsu thinks about this?

Out of the corner of my eye, I see Natsu's fist tighten. His foot begins to tap.

Happy lands beside Lucy and walks in between them.

"Yeah. It's fine. Thanks." Exendo says.

Happy coughs and pushes Exendo with his paws, Exendo chuckled embarrassed and took a step back.

"One more." Happy said.

Exendo took another step back.

"One more..." Happy said.

Exendo sweat dropped but did as he said.

"Hmm..." Haply said, eyeing Exendo.

Natsu was smirking.

"Thanks, Happy." Natsu whispered.

Lucy went up to Happy and brought him up to her face by the tail, Happy was now swinging.

"Stupid cat! Thats wasn't very nice!"

"So you good now or what?" Gray asked.

"Sorry, Exendo, but we can't exactly trust you yet." Wendy said.

"More like never.." Natsu mumbled.

"Looks like fire breath is jealous."

"WHAT YOU SAY FROSTY?"

"I said you're jealous flamehead!"

"Flashy Perv!"

"Ashbrain!"

"Ice minty fresh!"

"Heat Lamp!"

"Droopy eyes!"

They continued bickering with each other. Erza motioned us to come with her so we followed.
