Flames of life [ FAIRY TAIL x BLUE EXORCIST CROSSOVER]

She's in danger

- Rin's p.o.v -

" What do you say Rin? " Lucy asked me, looking at me with those golden-caramel eyes I've come to love but all I could think about was her protecting him. ' Why is she doing it? ' I asked myself over and over again before I was finally able to answer. " He killed the old man right in front of me. I was there as he kept on laughing. I... I can't just give it up. I'm sorry. I'm just, not ready to give up the promise I made the old man. I would avenge his death, no matter what. " I ended while I starred at Satan with hatred and anger. I would have killed him bare-handed, yet she was there. Lucy would hate me.

" If that's so, then this is good bye. " She said while smiling, her eyes watery and her voice sad before turning around to look at Natsu, or better said Satan. " I am his guardian angel now..." Lucy added, he back against me as I suddenly heard her heart pounding faster and her breathing deeper.

But my thoughts that ran wild with the idea of her choosing him were to overwhelming for me to notice what was happening.

'I can't believe it ! Lucy choose Satan over me. Satan. The one that is my so called ' real father '. Was Lucy having feelings towards him? Like my mother? What if she ends up being my step-mother? Wha-' I cut myself off before thinking more about it. Somehow thinking about her with anybody else that wasn't me got me feeling sick and angry but thinking about Lucy with Satan made me feel even worse. I could feel the hatred and disgust, the feeling of betrayal flowing on my veins as I tried to understand why? yet I got no answer. " Lucy... " I mumbled while my eyes were closed. I was going to get an answer from her and I would decide what to do afterwards. " Nee-san... " Yukio mumbled but I didn't pay attention to her, I was waiting for Lucy to reply. " Nee-san, she's gone. " Yukio said, walking towards me as my eyes flushed open.' What did he mean with that? '

Sadly, the answer was right in front of my eyes. She was gone. Just like the gate to Geheena. All that was left behind was the pink haired idiot that laid on the ground and the debris we had caused while fighting. " Lucy? " I asked, walking forwards where the gate used to be, only to be surprised by the nothing that rested there. It was really gone, just like her. She was really gone.

" Lucy.... " I heard someone saying. " Luce... " the voice said once again as I realized who it was. Natsu Dragneel. " She's gone... " I told him, my voice firm yet emotionless. " She's gone " I repeated, turning around to look at him. " She's gone and it's your fault. " I said, my blue eyes piercing his onyx ones. He gave me a dry laugh as reply as I held onto my sword tighter. I wanted to punch someone. I wanted to hit something. I wanted him dead. " Haven't you realized that you are the one to blame too? " he asked, standing up. His small cuts and bruises were nothing like mine; deep cuts, big blue bruises, scratches... " What do you mean? " I asked him, my mind thinking about Lucy every second that went by. " You already know... " he mumbled " The hate you feel inside isn't towards us, him or me. No. You're completely wrong, the hatred you feel, is towards yourself. For letting her go. For not being able to protect her when she needed you. It- " I cut him off, I was having enough of his chit-chat but somehow I knew it only pissed me off because I knew he was right. " You know nothing " I stated, unleashing my sword covering myself in flames. " Oh, really? Well let me tell you one thing. Maybe you think I'm dense. And I must admit I might be a little bit but there's one thing I know for sure. The hatred that I grew towards myself for doing what I did to Lucy was and still is real. As real as you and me. I won't ever be able to forgive myself, even though I know it was Lisanna's plan. I did it. I could have fought it, like all the other things I fight about but I didn't and I won't ever forgive it. So you can say anything except that I don't know it. Because I do " He said, leaving me speechless, I had never heard him talk about his feelings like that and the worst of all is that what he said made total sense.
