I'm just getting frustrated at think of chapter names for this story, so I'm just gonna leave it like this. :P

~Jessie's P.O.V.~

        A half an hour later, I'm still waiting for Gray to get the others. Damnit, where are they? If we don't get Natsu home soon, his cuts will become infected.. Just then I heard Lucy and the other's voices.

        "Natsu!!!" she cried when she saw him. She ran past me and kneeled down next to an injured Natsu. Gray slightly elbowed me with a smirk on his face. I punch him, hard.

        "This is not funny right now Gray, I examined his wounds and he's really injured. It's actually fortunate he lived," I hiss. He just scoffed.

        "You're just exaggerating," he said. I pinch his ear and make him look at Lucy.

        "Are those tears exaggerating?" I asked as he saw tears silently roll down Lucy's eyes. His eyes widened and he slowly shook his head in shame. Satisfied, I let go of his ear.

        "We have to get him back to Fairy Tail and let Porylusica take a look at him," commanded Erza with a worried expression. Gray picked the unconscious Natsu up. He made sure not to touch his twisted leg. As we walked, Erza informs me they already took the reward for the quest we were doing. We were supposed to capture some monsters that had been accidentally released by the townspeople. The ones I saw were nothing, and certainly could't do that kind of damage to Natsu.

        "Hey um, did you guys have trouble with your monster?" I asked hesitantly. They all shook their heads.

        "Nope, mine was easy," said Gray.

        "Mine was captured in less than a minute," said Erza calmly.

        "Mine was a little hard, but not as viscous as to....do that kind of damage," said Lucy. She never let her eyes off of Natsu, which made me worry about her.

        "He's going to be fine, so don't worry about to much," I said, but I didn't believe myself, and I'm pretty sure Lucy didn't either, but she nodded and slowly took her eyes off of Natsu.

        "I sure hope so.." she said quietly.
