Sorry that this is going to be short!

~???'s P.O.V.~

        "Dark Sphere!" I threw a sphere of pure dark magic at the minion who gave me that potion idea.  "Idiot!  I do not wish to kill him!" I snarled.

        "P-please sir, I didn't know th-that its effects would differ!" Minion begged.

        "Well, you should've!  Now you pay the price!" I growled, gathering up magic energy.  "Dark Sphere!" This time, the black ball hit him, and he became a pile of ash.  The minions that were watching shivered in fear.  "Ugh, I have to do everything by myself," I growled as my dark wings sprouted and I flew away.

~Natsu's P.O.V.~

        W-wha..?  What happened?  The last thing I remember was Lucy's warmth.  "L-Lucy..?" I whispered as my eyes flickered open.  The first thing I saw was Lucy smiling warmly at me.

        "Hey," she said softly.  "You feeling okay?"

        "Better," I murmured.  Her warm hand was holding mine, and for some reason, I liked the feeling.  "How long was I out?"

        "Just for a day," she answered in a soothing tone.  "Wendy healed you until you were better."  She gestured for someone behind her and Wendy came forward.

        "How you feeling Natsu-san?" she asked.

        "Much better than before," I grinned.  "Thanks Wendy."  She slightly blushed and nodded.  Just then another girl with light blonde hair and green emerald eyes came forward.

        "Hi Natsu-san," she grinned.  I looked at her weirdly.

        "Who are you?" I asked.

        "Oh right, sorry, I forgot you don't know me.  My name is Angie," she said with a warm smile.  She came close to me and felt my forehead.  A faint light emitted from her hand and she closed her eyes.  Her hand felt warm and the light felt so soothing I closed my eyes.  After a couple seconds, the warmth disappeared and I opened my eyes to see her with a concerned expression on her face.

        "Is something wrong?" I asked nervously.  She slowly shook her head.

        "N-no," she stuttered.  "You just need some sleep, that's all."  

        "But--"  Lucy looked at me with a smile.

        "Get some rest Natsu, please?" she insisted.  I was hesitant at first, but nodded.

        "Okay," I murmured in defeat.  I really wanted to get up and actually do something, but I had to admit, I was tired.  I laid back down on the soft bed I was on and slowly drifted back to sleep.
