Chapter 14
Third person
"Lucy!" Natsu reaches out into the air, his hand grabbing hold of something familiar. Lucy.
"Natsu, I'm sorry, I can't..." The boys watched as a small portal opened, a crack in space and time between the two worlds. Lucy's figure started to materialise in front of them. She was badly bruised, panting and shaking, one hand on her stomach and the other intertwined with Natsus.
"Luce..." she wasn't looking at him. She was looking at something fierce, something that cause pain to show in her eyes.
"Please Natsu... I- I can't do this, not alone." She whispered before looking down, tears rolling down her cheek as bangs covered her eyes.
"You've never been alone... don't ever think that you have to fight alone." Natsus words made the girl smile and finally look at him. Their eyes locked for a moment, before Lucy was flung across a barren field and into a pillar.
"Lucy!" Natsu ran, through the crack in time and space and toward Lucy, ignoring everything around him.
"Watch out!" Before Natsu could react, Juvia stood in front of him, her arms crossed in front of her to protect him from the magic serge that came from the monster in front.
"Juvia!" Gray shouted as she was shot back, his body tending once he saw his love lay limp. Mavis began to throw her magic at the demon, trying to give the group space.
"Juvia..." Natsu whispered, looking at the girl who saved him, the one who had collapsed before him.
"Juvia are you okay?" Gray kneeled next to her, holding her in his arms.
"I love you," she whispered as she laid a hand on his cheek.
"D-don't say stuff like that... you tell me later, okay? You tell me when we're all safe." He whimpered as he felt her begin to go limp. "You tell me when we get married..." he struggled out.
"Juvia can't wait..." Juvia smiled before her body went limp.
"Juvia... J-Juvia." Grays voice broke, but he knew it was no use, it was too late.
"Gray..." Natsu looked at his friend. He wanted to comfort him, to tell him that everything was okay, but his voice caught in his throat. He looked over to Lucy, her shocked expression filled with sadness caused him to tense. There was a loud noise that pulled them from their grieving.
"We need to get out of here!" Mavis yelled as she began to make her way to the closing rip that connected the two worlds.
"Okay," Layla turned as she made her way to the first master. The group had been broken, they couldn't fight. Not anymore.
"Come on, Gray, if we get her to Wendy in time maybe we could-" as Natsu spoke, the absent space which once bore her guild mark began to glow blue, spreading through out her body.
"Juvia?" Grays voice, broken and tired, spoke softly as he watch her begin to turn into small blue lights that moved up into the sky. The group watched before she spread out into the stars, becoming a constellation like she once was the last time the celestial world was in danger, but this time, she was smiling.
"Juvia?" Lucy whispered before letting out a small sob.
"We have to go!" Mavis yelled, the beast they were neglecting was reeking havoc before them.
"You guys leave. I'll stop him." The group turned to Gray, shock to watch the black marking on his arm over taking him.
"Gray, you can't-" an ice cold wind stopped Natsu from continuing his sentence as he watched Grays stance spread wider, his arms crossing over each other.
"Leave now!"
