Chapter 48: Voiceless
We spent all night listening to people sing songs. Plus, Abigail and I did another thing, if you catch my drift ;). I laid in bed as I watched the face of pure beauty. My fiancé... I love the sound of that. I wonder what she's dreaming of... I shook her awake. She slowly opened her eyes and said "Morning..." I smiled "Morning beautiful." I said through our mate link. She sat up and covered her front since we weren't wearing anything. I sat up behind her and hugged her from behind. She leaned her back into me. I smiled.
"I love you..." I said. "I do as well..." she said. We got up and got changed. As I was about to put on a shirt, I looked at my snake tattoo on my arm. It looked really cool. I put on a shirt and walked downstairs, hand in hand with Abbey. When we got to the main floor. When Natsu saw us he stopped eating. I looked at him with a questioning look. What?, I asked. "Nothing. Just that you look more determined." Natsu replied. Wendy and Glacier saw me and ran at me. I smiled as I was nearly tackled to the ground in a hug.
I hugged them back. "I can't believe you somehow got a tattoo before me. And mine was going to be cool and everything..." Gray said, muttering the last bit. "I was going to do the same. We can never top a snake and a spider." Natsu said. Then I noticed no brother, mother, or cousin. "They left to your brother's football I think. They just signed him up." Lisanna said. I nodded. Delphi and Arachne got up from their seats and both said "How are you feeling?" I tried to speak, but it only sounded like me choking.
Abigail rubbed my back affectionately as I became depressed. "I feel really bad, but happy too. Now Robert can't counter my comebacks!" Daniel said with glee. I snapped my fingers and large paper cut outs with words appeared in my hands. I raised up the first one. They all read it outloud. "Shut up Barbarian. At least I'm not an airhead like you." Lucy read. Everyone laughed as Daniel's mouth gaped. "You came prepared..." he sighed before eating his food again. The door knocked and someone opened it.
Sharon came walking in. "Knock knock!" she said with a smile. I switched a card and showed it to her. "Can't you wait." she read. Sharon shook her head and smirked. "Now, now Grim Reaper. We both have a habit at annoying each other. Good luck now!" she exclaimed in glee. I switched the card. "Go make out with Daniel in your bedroom Ms. Flame." she read and instantly regretted it. Everyone, but a blushing Sharon and Daniel, were laughing. "R-Robert!" Sharon exclaimed in embarrassment. I smirked.
Then I managed to croack out "Gotcha." The whole room went silent as all of our eyes widened. "Did you just..." Juvia said before everyone else other then me finished "TALK!?" I couldn't even do a thing. I was frozen. Then my mouth slowly turned into a smile. I brought Abigail in for a hug as everyone cheered. "You talked! I'm so happy." she said. I nodded. My voice sounded raspy. Though I still don't remember what happened yesterday. "Since I almost have my voice back, can someone tell me what happened yesterday?" I asked.
Everyone stopped cheering and looked away. Abigail hugged me tighter. I looked around at my friends. "Guys?" I croaked out. They didn't speak. I looked down at Abbey. She wouldn't look me in the eye. "I understand. You don't want me to know. It must have been a bad fight with those monsters." I said with a smile. They all looked at me surprised. "Monsters? They vanished before this happened." Erza said. "Can... you remember... anything?" Abigail asked. "I remember up to where we exited the portal and talked to Lisanna. Other then that, I got glimpses of after, such as our little kiss." I told her.
"So... what happened wasn't your fault?" Abigail asked. I shook my head. "Why?" I said. "Well... you turned demonic." Alex said. "What?" I asked. "Your eyes became green and red. Your teeth became sharper and you attacked us. You were laughing crazily the whole time." Abigail said. Then my heart beat picked up and my head started to hurt. Abigail could see the pain on my face and moved away. My arm began to burn and a voice said Time is... up. Time to... give me... your soul... I started to feel like I ran a twenty mile jog. Give... in! the voice demand. "N-No..." I mumbled, falling to my knees. Let me... take control... the voice said.
"Never." I mumbled. I could my heart beat faster. My eyesight was changing from green, to black and white, to red, and back again. Then it all stopped. My arm felt heavy and my left shoulder had a little weight on it. I glanced at my right arm, the python was normal and slithering around my arm. I looked at my left shoulder and saw the black widow. "Both of you saved me, huh?" I asked before slipping into unconsciousness.

I was sitting in a room. The walls and the floors were red. The cieling was black. There was a fire crackling in the room. I was sitting in a recliner with a guy in another one amd staring at the fire. The guy saw me and grinned. He had orange hair and blue cat eyes. "Who are you?" I asked with my normal voice. "Name's Leviathan. Your new demon contract." the man said. I blinked. "So... you called me here to tell me that you're a new companion." I asked. "Yup! Bye!" he said, before I fell into a hole in the ground. When I landed, I gasped awake and sat up.
Everyone was around me. Abigail threw herself at me and cried. "You're okay!" she cried. I nodded. I tried to say something, but it came out in a choking sound again. Everyone looked at me with a sad smile as I started feeling depressed. I heard a hiss and I looked to my right. The snake was curled up on the floor beside me with the spider on it's head. I smiled at them and placed my right arm near them. The snake curled around my arm when the spider got off it. It transfomed back into its tattoo. I opened my palm and the spider jumped on. It transformed into its tattoo form as well.
"I still can't believe those are tattoos..." Lucy said. I shrugged. "Ugh!!! Now I really want a tattoo!" Natsu exclaimed in anger. "Maybe I should get-" "NO!" we all, except me, shouted at Wendy. Wendy looked at me in a pleading way and I shook my head no with a sad smile. "When you're older." Abigail said. Wendy gave a depressed sigh.
