The Angel of Sloth

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Levy!" Gajeel shouted.

"Look what you've done, Gajeel." he heard.

"GET OUT OF MY HEAD!!!" Gajeel shouted.

That voice. It's all his fault. Why is he here? Why was he in his head, torturing him with his beloved shrimp? Gajeel kept running into the darkness until he found his blue-headed shrimp.

"Levy!" Gajeel shouted, running to her.

She was on her back. Still and pale. Gajeel shook her to try to get her up. He got worried and completely flipped her over, only to look into her brown, lifeless eyes. She had been strangled and the blood on her mouth had dried. Gajeel didn't know whether to cry or throw up.

"S-Shrimp..." he stuttered, holding her lifeless body in his arms.

He got angry and shouted, "Who did this to you?!"

"Haven't you realized it yet?" the voice said again. This time, it was a voice he recognized.

He turned to see a figure. A person he couldn't believe was there.

"N-No... The person who murdered Levy was... It was..." he paused.

The figure smirked, "That's right."

"It's YOU"

Lucy, Juvia, and Wendy knew that something was wrong with Gajeel when he came to the guild that morning. Something was just off.

He wasn't fighting with Natsu and Gray or talking with Levy. Something was definitely wrong.

"Juvia will talk with Gajeel," Juvia said as the other two nodded.

Juvia got up from the table and sat next to Gajeel by the bar.

"Gajeel... Juvia, love rival and Wendy are wondered about you. Are you okay?" she asked, expecting a response but, nothing came.

And then she noticed something. A red mark on the back of his shoulder (since he's wearing a sleeveless shirt). Juvia noticed that there is an identical mark on his other shoulder too.

"Did Gajeel get a tattoo?" Juvia asked, only for Gajeel to ignore her again. He got up from the bar and left, but, not before he ran smack into Levy.

"Oh! Sorry, Gajeel!" Levy apologized, only to earn a "tsk" from the Iron Dragon Slayer.

Levy had the book with the story in her hands. She set it down as she and Juvia sat down on the table with Lucy and Wendy on it.

"What got up his butt?" Levy asked, only seeing shrugs from the three of them.

"Nevermind, Lu-chan! I translated the page and this is really big!" Levy shouted as she opened the book.

"What did you find, Levy-san?" Wendy asked.

"Well... continuing from the page." Levy began as she said what was on the page.

"It is said that if and whenever they are summoned, they must possess a host body to use. Particularly one that has their specific traits and powerful magic. When all seven have possessed powerful hosts, they can open the portal of the underworld and reek havoc on the surface again. To tell if someone has been possessed, they will have red angel wings imprinted on their backs, to show their sins. In order to break the bond of the angel and the host, someone must fix the destruction they have caused."

"Posses hosts of the same traits?" Wendy asked.

"Meaning if, let's say, Lust wanted a host, the possessed host must perform an act of betrayal or the host cannot be kept," Levy explained.

"And what does fixing the destruction mean?" Juvia asked.

"Someone other than themselves had to fix whatever act they have committed. Like, let's say, Lust controlled Lucy and she kissed Gray, Natsu would have to kiss Lucy to break the spell." Levy explained, making Juvia explode and Lucy's face burn.

"So, Lisanna somehow revived these angels to reek havoc on Earthland and Fairy Tail?" Lucy asked.

"If Levy is correct, someone in Fairy Tail is already possessed," Juvia noted.

"It could be anyone." Levy said.

Levy was walking home, thinking about what happened that morning with Gajeel.

"Why was he so rude this morning? That iron-faced jerk..." Levy thought.

She suddenly stopped to think.

"When I bumped into him, there was something on the back of his shoulder. Could he be-" her eyes widen and she shook her head viciously to rid of the thought.

"No! No! Gajeel would never allow himself to be possessed so easily. He's too strong for that!" Levy shouted in her thoughts.
