Jellal P.O.V

I was walking... slowly.....slentering throughout these dark woods...

My vision....was darkness..... a bare light shining in the center making me see my objevtive......

Chants.... echooing throughout my head as the monks spread throughout the woods.....

.

Waiting....

.

.

.

Watching.....

.

.

.

Lurking.....

I felt my commadres behind me, my magic overwhelming my own expectations. We were betrayed, enraged and defeaten by our own thoughts. My mind once had a picture inside it of a beautiful sight with bright scarlet as the center of my happiness.. but now I want everything to become deep red, to furfil my needs.. I need to watch scarlet grow darker and darker...

lost in my thoughts I suddenly heard a tiny squeek, I turned my head slowly to where the sound came from and rushed myself towards the bush.... nothing...

"Oi, Jellal...? Do you see something..?" I heard Natsu ask me as he hurried his way over to me.

"Sadly no. It must have been a forest animal.".

"A forest animal doesn't smell like a feline.." Natsu chuckled as I cocked my head to the side, my mind filling up with possibilities and other reasons as to why a cat could be here.

Gajeel and Romeo decided to inspect further on as Gray, Natsu and I continued on following the monks to our objective. Somewhere inside my heart I felt resistance, as to why would I want to kill Erza Scarlet..? I have no certain goal in doing so, It feels as if things would not be much diffrent once I finished this task.

"Shh... Jellal.... dont be afraid...." The monk's voice echooed through my mind as it created more waves of anger.

Gray P.O.V

I felt an unknown pressance behind me as I felt pressure lifted of my head... It was relieving and I felt like I could breathe again. I turned around to face a young man about my age. 

He had long brown hair, tied up in a ponytail which was laid over his shoulder to be seen from the front, he had two bangs and on top of his head where two ears twitching as he listened to his surroundings, he wore a white turtleneck seater with a black leather jacket and leather jeans which where held up with a leather belt which contained iron rings and a whip, under his pants where what seemed to be black cowboy boots with iron on the back, out of his pants as a long tail which was only contained of long hairs which resembled the same hair on its head, his brown eyes stared into mine as he gave me a slight grin.

"Yo.." The man suddenly spoke up as Natsu and Jellal turned around to face the man, their heads where showing me that they could not quite get the situation either.

"The name is Uma, I am a celestial spirit from the chinese zodiac." Uma gave us a small bow and smirked as Natsu and Jellal continued to stare.

"The name is Gray Fullbuster, Thank you Uma for helping me getting rid of that headache.." I whispered as Uma smirked and glared at Jellal and Natsu making them stop staring.

"No need to thank me, I am here to help you anytime." Uma chuckled as he suddenly vanished into thin air... 

Have I been imagining things..?

Lucy P.O.V

We watched as Uma returned into our cabin, Yukino was panting from using so much celestial magic but I could not help her... she needed to do this alone. Uma bowed before us and walked up to Yukino who smiled sweetly as he whispered something.

"Uma, chose to be the guardian of Gray Fullbuster." Yukino smiled as Uma vanished.

Juvia let out a relieved sigh, probably because Uma wasn't a girl/ loverival as we all agreed and continued to let Yukino do her work, Sting happened to be by her side all the time as he held her hand or wiped away the sweat..

.

Kawaii~

.

Suddenly the next chinese zodiac appeared and smiled at the group, a small girl with tall and white bunny ears on top of her head, cute and white bunnypaws and ofcourse a little tail, she had long white hair which reminded me of Mira without the tiny ponytail in her hair, she wore light blue shorts and a orange frilly top which made her seem very sweet and innocent, she made a small bow before adjusting her glasses.

" pleasure meeting you all, My name is Banī. I am the rabbit zodiac." The girl said and smiled sweetly at Levy-chan.

"I am going to be your chinese zodiac, I would love to spend time with you." Banī spoke as Levy smiled and nodded.

"Hello Banī, my name is Levy McGarden. I look forward to work with you!".

  Banī smiled as she adjusted her glasses once more and vanished into the zodiac world. But before we noticed, another one had appeared. A bouncy little boy was standing in front of me as he smiled widely, he had a long, slim and darkcolored tail which he used all the time, he had messy darkbrown hair which was the same color as his tail and barely able to see ears. He was wearing a light brown button up vest and darkgreen shorts with sporty shoes under them. His deep brown eyes met mine as he chuckled.

"Hey there! I amMonkī the ape zodiac!" He smiled as his child-like voice spoke to me.

"Well Hello, I am Lucy Heartfilia!" He grinned as he took my hand and happily shook it before he turned to meet the others.

"Pleasure to meet you all, especially you Lucy! I look forward onto seeing you soon!" Monkī grinned as he vanished in a poof.

"He remined me of Natsu in a way.." Levy chuckled as I quickly slapped her arm.

Natsu P.O.V

I could not believe what I just saw... a tall guy about my age was standing in front of me, he just burned one monk to ashes leaving me able to breathe again. his red spikey hair that went all the way down to his tail was having small flames inside, his red scaled wings where retreating into a calmer form as he turned around and faced me with a grin. I noticed two horns on his head, bright orange eyes and pointy teeth, his arms were red and scaled on the lower arm and he happened to have claws, his clothes contained of a orange tanktop and black shredded shorts that went up to his knees, he wore regulair sporty shoes and liked to show of his burning scars on his legs and neck.

" Supp! The name isDoragon. I am the leader of the chinese zodiac!" Doragon grinned as I held out my hand with my signature grin, Jellal and Gray seemed shocked at my sudden change of behavoir.

"Heya! I am Natsu Dragneel! the leader of fairy tail!"

"AM NOT!" Gray and Jellal cried in sync.

"AM TOO!".

Doragon just chuckled and gave me a pat on the head before he vanished into the dark.

"Another one..?" Gray asked dumbfoulded.

Juvia P.O.V

I watched Doragon vanish into Yukino's box as she almost fainted.

"YUKINO!" Sting cried as he caught her right in time. SO ROMANTIC!!

"Sting-sama...." Yukino whispered as the box closed and fell to the floor.

Lucy picked it up and placed it inside Yukino's bag before Yukino drifted off into sleep. I gazed upon the sight of Sting and Wendy trying to calm her down after using so much magic. Suddenly Erza shivered making us all look up at her.

"Jellal...." Erza whispered as I felt the pressence now as well..

with only 5 celestial spirits able to come to the world... we are doomed...
